The experiment station at the college bas been for several seasons making a comparative test of many varieties of corn, and tbe results are clearly set forth in the pamphlet Just issued. Now that corn-planting time iB but a few weeks distant, it would be the part of wis dom to learn which are the best vari eties both for ears and fodder. The bulletin also treats of but time to plant, best method of cultivation, etc. All you bave to do.,Is to send a postal card requesting the pamphlet, and it will be promptly malted to you. Gov.

AH.- S3. THB Emmons County Advocate is the only paper in the state that has not the name of an editor, publisher or proprietor flying at its masthead. Why is this thus?—Bismarck Palla dium. [Because the confidence man who runs it made a contract three years ago that he would not be con nected with the publication of a paper —alleged or otherwise—in this oounty, for five yean and he imagines that he is saving himself from a possible lawsuit by not printing bis name as proprietor or editor. That Is the -rea son that the sheet named goes forth into the world like an unbranded Jackass unto tbe prairie. Mofit likely the attorney next door who reads his proof-slips and spells the long words for him told him to leave out the name. _________ fZii -. THK entire country is considerably stirred up over the almost prohibitive prices of beef. Hardly a day passes but the beef trust adds a half cent or so to tbe price.

What ever may be the cause of the bigh prices, all authorities agree that the situation will not be relieved until tbe shipment of range cattle begins, in August. The scarcity of beef is caus ing as much worry in this part of the northwest as it is in the big cities. The CMtract Ltl. Bismarck Tribune: Bids for the construction of the Bismarck exten Bion of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul road {rom ISureka have been re ceived, and work to to bc$ln on tbe 27th inst.

Williamson and a repre sentative of the Post visited Linton, Emmons County, N. D4 recently. Tlie section of country through which they passed was certainly as line a sec tion as man ever gazed upon. Almost entirely free from stones and slightly rolling, the whole country south and east from Linton looks like the Gar den of Eden. The soil Is of a deep, black, sandy loam, ranging from 12 to 36 inches in depth, according to the el evation, tbe low lands having a greater depth of soil. The country north and west from Artas to Linton is rolling in fact, this whole country, north, south and west from range 68 The Pranaioe* I.Md. Rev. Baugbman, of Kensal, writes back to his old neighbors in Illinois of western North Dakota: "The land is of a black loam and is very productive. There were flax, wheat, barley, corn,, cane, potatoes, cabbages, oats, and all the vegetables except watermelons and pumpkins raised this year. Tbe flax crop was great. When a flax field of 300 to 600 acres is in bloom it looks like that much clear water at a dis tance, Flax went from twelve to twenty-five bushels per acre, worth tl.50 to $1.60 per bushel. This shows how a' man with- business principles about him could buy land at f3.50 per acre and pay for it in tbe fall. One man whom I have especially noticed came here in March, settled down in a tar-paper shack, bought his farming implements on time, as also his living was on time. He reaped his crop, paid his debts, and had 95,000 clear to start on. He will now live in a frame man sion and carry a full pocket-book, for be can make the same nextvyear if we have a good season. The farming is on a large scale here. One man with twelve horses can fai-m300 to400acres. You never hear that old hated word 'rent.' There is no paying rent here, for land 'is plentiful, but .is oh the raise. Around a town it is worth 912 to $15 an acre, but cheaper back a few miles. A man has no fencing except bis pasture, and in winter there is no stock law, so the stock can graze the fields and pick up tbe lost grain." —1 rnm 11 i— B«r*ka Item* of iMtcreat. Eureka Post, 18th: Miss Herolz, of Linton, is again in her old position at Casper Hatz'sBtore....TheMilwaukee Railroad Company are unloading scip plies at their yard just south, of tbe city, as fast as possible. Twenty-four oars of rails were unloaded Monday, and more are coming every day. It will take about 320 cars of rails to lay the track and side-tracksbetween Eu reka and Linton 1.. .The Milwaukee ex cursion which was set for April 27th bas been postponed to. May 18tb.... From now on the automobile will leave Eureka every day, after tbe ar rival of the train, and run to Selz, re* turning to Eureka tbe sameevening, so as to accommodate those going to and returning-from North Dakota. .Many Eureka people, Monday,'saw a bone leas carriage for tbe first time, Tbe Adams-Morrow. Land Opsnpapy re 1" through to the Missouri river, is rolling, and elegant for mixed farming. On account of the demand |^r these lands, the prices are firm. There is no question but what one year-from now will see a vast change in this section. wny N«t Plant IreebT Tbe season of the year for tree-plant ing is again here. Why should there not be a general movement on tbe part of Linton people to beautify their grounds by setting out trees? Situ ated as the village is in a valley, there is no trouble in getting trees to thrive. In fact, there are trees {lowing near town that are at least two hundred yards from the creek, and a good many feet higher up than the site of Linton. This place is undoubtedly destined to be quite a good-sized town, and it can be made, a beautiful place. Besides, a few trees around a dwelling will add considerably to the value of the property. Do not put it off to an other year. There are things that you canj postpone and "do at any time but, if you do not set out some trees pretty soon, they will lose a sea son's growth. If you haven't time to go after trees yourself you can get them at reasonble prices from Oscar Will, in Bismarck, and have them brougbt'down by stage. Tbe writer has set out a good many trees here that were procured from Will, and all have lived and done well.

The automobile mad£ its first trip Wednesday,to Artas, a distance of sixteen miles. Tbe distance was covered in one hour and fifteen minutes. It made the return trip Thursday, leaving again after dinner ith another load of passengers, and turning Friday, making the trip in forty-five minutes... .Several contract ors have been looking over the Burvey nortb, within the past week, and it is rumored that work will begin witbin a short time.. ..Judge Wm.

Recently, United States District Attorney Rourke, of Lisbon, was in social session at Fargo with a mixed company of pioneers and tendcrfeet. The subject of tbe blizzard of last month was under dlscusson, and the old-timers were relating their experi ences in former storms. Finally it came Pat Rourke's turn, and he said that tbe last storm reminded him of a Kreat storm in the winter of '78, when he started from Fargo to Lisbon on horse-back. A storm came up and his horse gave out. He killed his horse, removed the entrails, and crawled in side, shutting the horse up after him. He went to Sleep, and, when he awoke, there he was—hard and fast. He would have been there still had not a sudden thaw loosened up the horse's ribs and released him. Tbnader Haaataln. There is great interest in the newly discovered Thunder Mountain mines, northern Idaho. It seems that Jerry Casey, formerly of Hampton, this county, is among those on their way to the new diggings. In a letter dated "Graiigevllle.iflaho, April 18th," Jerry writes to the editor of the Rec ord as follows: "I left home April 1st, and have been here ten days, get ting my outfit ready to start up the mountain. It is about a month too soon to get in, but I shall start about the 17th inst. and go as far as the snow will allow. Then I will, camp, and prospect until the trail is open. One man who bas been there says he will give a dollar for the gold from ev ery handful of dirt panned out over an area of country twenty miles square. Everybody bere is excited about get ting claims. They tell of one chap who got in a snow-slide that carried him 2,000 feet down the mountain side. The slide went slowly, aad he staked out three claims on the way down. I bave a partner. We bave four horses, and will pack 800 pounds to tbe diggings. Flour on Thunder Mountain is worth $50 a sack, sugar $20, beans $20, and other things in pro portion while, here, prices are about tbe same as at home. I expect to stay on the mountain until fall. I will write again. Give my regards to all old friends." Pallvek Plckltfa.
