—During the past week the city has

New England and "York-State" know
what flour the best bread is made of. Min

Of Mr. Cummings, the candidate for
Treasurer, we have only to say that we
have had no reason to change the good
opinion expressed a year ago when he was
a candidate for County Auditor. He is the
equal of his opponent in point of honesty
and his superior in clerical sbility sad the
educational qualifications necessary for the
proper transaction of the business of the
Treasurer's office.

—J. O. Simmons, formerly of Little
Falls, well known in northern Minnesota,
was'shot through the right arm at Bismarck
Saturday by Cherokee Lis, a half-breed fe
male outcast, who had been lying about
the hay and other camps cooking, etc., for
the past few months. He interfered to
prevent her stealing from a neighboring
claim, whichwas the cause for theshooting.
She was arrested and committed to await
the action ofthe grand jury.
—The Minneapolis Mail says thatby the
provisions of the bill appropriating money
for the preservation of the Falls of. St. An.
thony and the improvement of the upper
Mississippi river, "the sum of $100,000 was
made for the preservation of the Falls of
St. Anthony, $25,000 of which could, at the
discretion of the government engineers, be
used for the improvement of navigation on
the upper Mississippi. No money was,
however, appropriated directly for that
purpose."
This is scarcely satisfactory. The peo
ple of this city were assured by prominent
men of Minneapolis, leaders in this navi
gation movement, that the interests of the
country along the upper river should be
taken care of and that a share oi any ap
propriation that might be obtained should
be used for improving the navigation of
the upper Mississippi.
Again the Mail says: -..-.:
"Minneapolis is deeply interested in the
subject of the navigation of the river above
this point, and is ready to do her share to
promote such,an enterprise, when the prop
er parties are ready to conduct it on strict
and reliable business principles."
Neither is this. St. Cloud business men
subscribed their full proportion of the
stock for the building of a line of steam
boats, and it was Minneapolis that failed
"to do her share." Don't be selfish down
there, and gobble everything.

PASS THKli ABOUND.
About two weeks ago we received from
"D. P. Burr & Co., 90 and 92 Fifth avenue
Chicago" Advertising Agents, five adver'
tisemente with orders to insertforone year*
The list included the advertisements of
Field, Leiter & Co., Lord Smith & Co.,
and the Union National Bank, the two
others being of "Puts and Calls" and a
"Railroad Watch." As is the rule with this
paper, we took'measures to satisfy our
selves of the reliability and responsibility of
D. P. Burr & Co. before publishing their
advertisements. Accordingly we wrote to
the publishers of the Chicago Tribune and
to Messrs. Field, Leiter A Co., one of the
advertisers. The Tribune Co. say:
"We never heard of the firm of D. P.
Burr & Co., consequently know nothing as
to their responsibility."
Field, Leiter & Co. write: 'In reply
to yours of 28th ult would say that we
know nothing about Messrs. D. P. Burr &
Co.,—do no business with them,. and from
what we hear don't wish to 1"
,. We notice that two or three papers in the
State—including one in this city—are pub
lishing this bajtch of .advertisements. Of
course, they never will getany payfor them.
Publishers would dowell to look somewhat
into theresponsibility of these foreign adver
tising agencies before accepting orders from
them, and thus avoid being victimised by
sharpers.

WHAT THE FARMERS AB E DOING
AND TALKING ABOUT.
MAINE PRAIRIE, Oct. 4th, 1875.
EDITOR JOURNAL. Many of our farm
ers came home from the fair, with blue and
red ribbons sticking out from packages of
wheat, potatoes, corn, butter and- preserves,
and on the horns oftheir cattle, and seem
ed to feel proud ofthem. It appears to be
generally conceded that there was abetter
display of agricultural products and ma
chinery this year than at any previous
fair, and nothing but the weather prevent
edit from being a grand success.
AT THE GRANGE MEETING
Miss Mary Greely and Mrs. F. Hamil
ton were necessarily absent, and sent their
regrets^ with their essays. Mrs. B. U.
Watkins's lecture was to the point and was
well delivered. Mrs. E. H. Atwood had
been to the fair and was excused till the
next time. The relative merits of stock
and grain raising were discussed. Elder
Shoemaker thought that if we had a cheese
factory established here stock-raising
would be the more profitable had always
noticed that, in suitable localities, those
farmers prospered the best who went into
the dairy business. S. F. Brown, did not
see much profit in either stock or grain
raising. Mr. Greely had raised large
•crops of grain, but did not believe that he
evermade a dollar profit raising wheat
was in favor of a cheese factory thought
best to sow more tame grass had thirty
acres seeded to timothy, which was doing
well. Michael Goodner thought that the
way we were doing, raising both stock and
grain, was better than raising either alone,
but was in favor of a cheese factory. E.
H. Atwood thought it best to keep enough
stock to eat up and work over all the
straw, corn stalks and hay that one could'
raise sowed less than half of his tilled
to wheat, and on the balance raised
oats and corn, which was mostly fed
out at home and thus kept his land fertile
and enabled him to raise 20 or 30 bushels
of wheat to the acre did not believe that
it paid to raise stock and buy feed for them.
It was resolyed to have a festival in two
weeks, for the Patrons and their families.
THE FROST
on the 22d ofAugust played some singular
pranks, killing one man's corn dead and
leaving his next neighbor's untouched.
About one-third of the corn was entirely
ruined one-third will yield half a crop of
soft com the other one-third will be first
rate. M. P.

FARMERS, READ THIS.
The Wood's machine received the
first premium at the last Minnesota
State Fair. So did the ElwardJHar
vester. So did the Champion No. 4
combined self-rake Reaper and Mow*
er.. These are the machines John
Roller sells. John Roller got the
first premium for the best assortment
of machines, and C. C. Tobey the
premium forthe second best assort
ment, at the Stearns County Fair last
week. The first premium was $5.00
cash, the second premium was $3.00
cash. J. P. Hammerel did not get
any of them. Wood's Harvester,
with self-binder, got the first diploma.
Champion No. 4 combined self-rake
Reaper had no opposition, which shows
that the Nord Stern made a mistake
in its this week's paper, as Hammer
el's only diploma is a blue band—
with nothing else. The fact that the
Champion No. 4 had no opposition is
sufficient evidence that no other
machine could take the diploma from
it.
Farmers, if you want a bargain, go
to John Roller. You will find at his
warehouse the best assortment of the
best machines in the market.

Minneapolis, $1.05 in St. Cloud to
day they are 93@95c. Deduct the
freight to either of the other places,
which is 11 cents, and farmers will
see that they are getting every cent

while new has scarcely made its ap
pearance.
Oats come in slowly, and sell read
ily for 40 cents.
Barley finds quick sale at 89@90c
for bright inferior gralfes 75@80
cents.
Beans are scarce at $1.25 for prime,
while poor grades go abegging.
