Frills and Farming Notes From North Dakota
The Sheldon Progress laments state frills like a new science hall at Grand Forks while neglecting insane asylum provisions. LaMoure Chronicle notes farmers must seed wisely rather than rely on nature, and a security warning urges caution with strangers offering temporary barn storage. A Northern Pacific run with 250 travelers logged seven minutes between Wadena and Detroit, averaging 46.9 miles per hour, though an air brake failure cut the record. An incident near Cleveland left Engineer George Kingsley with a serious hand injury. The New York dispatch reports a horse market revival amid higher prices as supply tightens due to Africaans War losses and motorization fears.
