It may be said with much emphasis
that the exhibit of the Northern Pacific
Railway at the Dairy Show was by far
the finest thing of it's kind that the people
of Iowa have ever seen. Not only was
the exhibit q most wonderful showing,
but the kindness, geniality and pleasing
personality of L. j. Bricker, General I'm
migration Agent, who personally conduct
ed the exhibit, and who was painstaking
in his efforts to acquaint the public with
his company's exhibit, established prece-

seven thousand miles of the roads terri
tory is an interesting item of the exhibit.
There are over 100 jars showing fruits,
vegetables, berries, sea foods and a vari-
ETY. of things that soil, bushes and trees
produce when proper attention is accord
ed. One large jar shows IA distinct varie-
ties of vegetables. Twenty pears, the
smallest eight inches in circumference,
are shown as the product of one little
limb. A splendid quality of corn from
the Yellowstone Valley in Montana, ma
tured three weeks earlier than Iowa corn,
is feature of the exhibit. This early
maturity is due to the fact that the days
are much longer there than here during
the growing season, and there are more
perfect consecutive growing days.
It is impossible to transcribe the beau
ties of the exhibit on paper. One should
see it to appreciate it properly and Judge
of the merits Of the great Northwest as
a place for home. The exhibit will be
open today and Sunday. No doubt throngs
will continue to look, listen and linger at
this wonderland of good things during
the remaining days Of the Dairy Show.

DAD AND THE WEEKLY.

Sometimes dad says the paper amt
got up just right, and does lot o.
kickin' when he reads it Friday night.
He says there amt dog-durned thing
in it worth while to read, an that it
doesn't p int the kind O. stuff the peo-
pie need. He throws it in the corner
and says its on the "bum"-but you
ought to hear him boiler when the
weekly fails to come.
He reads about the weddings and
snorth like all git out, and he reads
the social column with a most decis-
i've shout; he'll read about the parties
and he'll fuss and fret and groan, and
say they print the papers for women
folks alone. He says of information it
does not contain a crumb-but you'd
ougter hear him boiler if the weekly
fails to come.
He's always first to grab it and he
reads it thru and thru-he doesn't miss
an item nor want al, OLD or new.
He says "They don't know what we
want-them darn newspaper guys; III
take day off sometime and go put
'em wise" If editors were as wise as
dad they'd sure be goin' some, but
you'd ought to hear him boiler when
the weekly fails to come.
An then when dad goes away and
stays day or two, l tell you he gets
riled and says what awful things he'll
do if the paper fails to mention MIN
being out of town-well he almost has
a notion to knock some printer down.
He never does, however, when he sees
one he is mum, but you oughter hear
him boiler when his paper fails to
come.-EX.

toned to use.
Samples of -four are on the way
from Belgium to Minneapolis and the
Northwestern Mills wherever located
will produce like flour for shipment.
This will obviate loss in baking and
will be much more useful than the
high grade patent we are using here.
The Northern Pacific will be pre-
pared to accept shipments about De-
cember 18th, and it is hoped that Val
ley City will have at least one car of
flour by that time. Remember you
