REPORTS A OR EAT CONGRESS """'' whn*
The Dry Farming congress ot
Spokane, according to Anders L.
Mordt, wm one of the greet erooto
that hss bsppenod In the matter of
awakeolog geoeral latoreet la the
terming Une. Mr. Mordt returned
from Spokane Tuesday moroleg ond
broogkt boms with him all tho prlM
wlaalag ribbons to conrince as all
ho had carried off the hlgheet
la tho exhlbita. As we men-
tloned once before he won first prtoe
oa Kaffir cora. first on mllo maize,
first oa broom cora aad aecond oa
millet. He alao won the grand prtoe
for eonaty exhibits from nil ssctloos
of the United Staten. Owing to oo
error lo the maaagemeat—failure to
giro Mr. Mordt proper time in
which to orrange bla exhlbita. be
did not get s chance to complete in
grates, r ege tables, melons and other
crqps. If the mistake had not oc-
curred Hanaford conuty might haro
been the proud possessor of a few
more ribbons nnd some allver lorlng
cups, or he'd here csrrled thnt
konor ot. We rood n letter from tko
msnagement yesterdny to Mr. Mordt,
•tåting tkia error and offering pro-
» to know thnt. the atoollng oi
oor gfala la so great tkat one ahould
nerer «sed moro than tO to SO
pounds to the acre. The man
laughed, forgoro the agricultural do
portment aad Mtlefled hlmrelf with
the fact thnt they did not know wkat
they wore doing. "
One eommendeble thing about the
congress Is the unlreranl Interest
which It to crantlng everywhere. The
Rock Islund railroad has promised 0
large dooatlon for the next annunl
meeting nnd nt thla laat meeting gare
91.000. The next meeting of the
congress will be held In Colorado
Springs nnd Mr. Mordt Is now ndrls-
lug thnt Texas and Cimarron coun-
ttoe get bnay with the work of pre-
paring for nn exhibit nt that time.
Mr. Mordt Informed ue that he will
gladly leod hie time oad aaalatance
towarde preparing nnythlng or get-
ting the Mhlblt In abape. provided
the farmora will only take an Inter-
eat In it. Hto experience win be
worth hundreda of dollara In thla line
and the opportunity cannot be al-
lowed to pom. If thla section of the
grant southwset can csrry off o few
more premiums It will hnrs setab-
llshed Itself firmly ss a good farming
asctlon. no mutter what you may
hear to the contrary, The trouble
is not in the couutry, altogether, but
largely la the way It Is hsndled. as
the Norwegian termors of Oslo have
demonstrated.—Ouymon Herald.
