heavier stand of grain The Great Northern aud other rail ways report a large increase in busi ness in view of the good times which seem again well established in the Northwest The crop in sight is the phenomenal abundance of 1891 when the harvest was great but not prop erly cared for good weather not awaiting the convenience of the farm ers and the result was that hundreds of acres of as fine grain as ever grew went to waste uncut or in tlie shock there not being men enough to handle it before unusually heavy fall rains came on The farmer of Northern Minnesota and North Dakota intends to by the severe lesson of that year and leave nothing undone that can be done to realize the full benefit of this years work but he must have assistance To afford this assistance will give men an admirable
