yrtrade in the Timefe office, where he
jsfworked as a pressman. His brother

the pulpit in one OT our neighboring

worse, the current of electricity came
on then and revealed the face of the
preacher as red as blood, while the
singer, went serenely on.—Renville

per cent 'of last year's crop in their
granaiies in excess of the amount that
will be needed for seed." The above
statement was. made by W. L. Beaton,
superintendent for the Duluth Eleva
tor Co., who has headquarters in
Crookston, and has Just completed a
circuit of his terrrltory and gave spe
cial attention to securing figures upon
"Which to base an estimate that would
be fairly accurate. Oontinulng, Supt.
Beaton Bal4 regarding conditions gen
erally throughout this Section: "Never
before in its history has the Red River
Valley shown greater recuperative
powers than during the past six
months. The farmers are in good
shape and I consider it a remarkable
fact.that during all my travels I hear
of practically no complaint. The con
ditions that ,prevailed throughout a
large acreage of' the northwest last
fall are well known and it cannot be
denied that the farmers lost heavily
in being unable to save one of the
best crops that has been raised in
many years in many instances.
'ton account of the changed methods
that have been adopted, however, they
weathered the storm without serious
inconvenience and are generally
speaking in the best of spirits now.
This is conclusive evidence that their
faith in the Red River Valley is un
shaken as they are looking forward
to better times than have ever before
been experienced. Their faith is firm
anCas their -methods are changing to
meet the changed conditions with
which they are confronted, I .think
there is good reason to feel optimistic
regarding the future.
"There is plenty of good seed wheat
in sight with the exception of a few
localities, and these will be suppled
by elevators wherever necessary ,by
wheat shipped in from Dakota points,
where a big crop of the finest kind of
wheat was harvested last year. We
Will handle whatever seed wheat is
demanded and other elevator compa
nies, will do the same.
"Regarding the acreage that will be
seeded the character of the.spring will,
determine that to a great extent.
There is a large amount of plowing
to be done in soipe sections while in
others the ground 1b quite generally
prepared for another crop. If the
spring is dry and early a full average
wheat crop will be seeded, but If it is
late and wet the acreage in wheat will
be short and the acreage in the coarse
grain larger than usual with the total
acreage somewhat under-the average."

The Coming Summer Resort ot the Northwest
It will be within a mile or two of the St. John extension of the
-Great Northern, and a spur into the townsite is almost a certainty.
Lots are selling rapidly and a chance to get a location in this beauti
ful resort will soon be gone. They are cheap now because the own^

lots that will leave the owner more isolated than on the farm.
