Horses Wanted.

An indianapoUs horse buyer will be here Saturday and wants to buy a car load of horses of any kind. Bring your horses on that day to Padgett’s livery barn and get the highest market price.

Born, March 21th, to Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose Marion, of near Surrey, a son.

There are quite a number o‘s late public sales this year and the prices are keeping up remarkably well. Fred Schultz’s sale Tuesday was a fine one, good prices being realized for everything. George Cover had a very good sale yesterday. The Marble sale at Wheatfield today is expected to attract a large crowd and will probably be one of the best sales held in the county this year. Friday of this week will take place the sale of Roy L. Harris on the Hopkins’ farm near Virgie.

Hamilton & Kellner can do your grinding in a hurry.

Marion Cooper. stopped at The Republican office for a few moments this morning and when asked if he remembered where he was a year ago today he admitted that he did not. Just a year ago today occurred the big flood and Marion’s house northeast of the stock yards was surrounded by -water which stood almost two feet deep on >the floor, of his house. He used a boat to transport himself and family to land. There were many other houses surrounded on the south side of the railroad, but Rensselaer got off very easily when compared to the great suffering in many other places. In fac£/ the water was not much worse here than it had been a time or two before.

Lon Colton, east of Rensselaer, has purchased from Crouch at Lafayette, a sound pure bred Jack. The law requires that all advertising for animals that make public stands be done in a manner setting forth the report of the veterinarian’s examination, the quality of the animal, as to whether he is pure bred, standaid bred, cross-bred or scrub. Failure to do this serves as a release from the service fee. No owner of an animal can afford to fail to stirctly comply with the law and Mr. Colton is advertising in. the right way. The law even prescribed the size, type to be used on posters and the comparative size of the type used in giving the name of the animal and setting forth his breeding classificatipn.

J. J. Fry, who mtfny years ago ran a bank at Roselawn, whose bank failed and who has since been spending much of his time in the southwest, seems to be at about the end of his string. Apparently Fry is mentally unbalanced and his personal habits are contributing to his ruin. Fry spent about a month here since the first of January and it seems borrowed money of a number and when he left he neglected to pay his 'board bill. He was absent only a day or two and when he returned he was badly used up, having been frightfully beaten. One report is that he was beaten up while on the train enroute to Chicago, another is that he was thrashed after his arrival in Chicago. At any rate his eyes and face were battered and he kept under cover here for about a week. He not stop at the hotel during this time. It is said that he drinks a lot of whiskey and this is hastening his ruin. Fry and his wife have been .separated for some time and he was tried by a sanity board at Michigan City Qot long ago, being discharged as sane. His actions, however, indicate that he is. ..far from right mentally. i

INTERESTING LETTER FROM NORTH DAKOTA

W. F. Clarke Fulfills Promase Made Before Leaving to Write About His New Home.

Minot, N. D., Meh 23, 1914. Editor Rensselaer Republican: I remember promising you that I would sometime write you from this far away country. I say far away.In someways it seems so; in reality. however, it is only a little over a day’s remove from Chicago. And there are two railroads which run trains through to Chicago from this point, the Great Northern and the Minneapolis, St. Paul .and Sault Sainte Marie. The world grows smaller every day. Probably the first thing most people of Indiana think about when they hear this state mentioned is either its wheat crops or its climate. It is noted for'both. The situation as to its wheat crops is changing somewhat, some people Think that the climate also is changing. I have my doubts about there being any remarkable changes in weather conditions. . It seems reasonable to think that the settling up of the country and the planting of trees would make some modification of climatic conditions, but not mueji. It is human nature for "people-living" in a region with unfavorable features to its climate to try to think that such features are-passing away, especially if they have real estate interests in the region. There is one respect in which the weather reports have doubtless changed somewhat. The govern men t now has various stations over the state where weather conditions are scientifically observed and carefully recorded and reported. These reports tend to check the ardor of the individuals who like to tell big weather tales. I have lived several years in the northwest and have noted rather carefully climatic«conditions, but 1 have never been able to meet with experiences that were up to the tales I have heard regarding the weather of this region. For example. I had heard tales about the severity of the weather here in this part of North Dakota, so that it was with some misgivings that I moved my family out here. Yet I do not recall a more enjoyable winter than the one we have just gone through. Not a drop of rain has fallen since early in October and there has been very little of snow. That means that there has been a great deal of sunshine. There was almost no severe weather until February. Since that time we have had some days when one was glad to stay indoors. But the majority of the cold days were very enjoyable. The air was clear and crisp and acted as a tonic to one’s whole system. The worst feature of the climate here is the high winds, which blow rather frequently. These at times are very disagreeable, filling the air with snow in winter and with dust in summer. The seasons which are regarded as the country’s finest are the late summer and the autumn. During the hot days, when about the only redeeming feature the Hoosier can discover in the state of the weather is that “it is good for the corn,” North Dakotans are sleeping at night under blankets. The change regarding the wheat situation referred to above is that wheat is ceasing to be Dakota’s only crop. Farmers are learning that diversified .farming pays better. The soil wilr not produce well one sort of crop indefinitely. A German farmer who has lived in this country 25 years and is prosperous, tells me that corn is the most profitable of the crops he raises. A Hoosier, on looking at his corn and noting its short stalks and small ears; wonder at this statement; but the German was quite sure he was right. This same man paid fifty dollars an acre for his farm and would not sell it now for one hundred an acre. There is much land out here, however, which can be bought for much less than fifty dollars an acre. Minot calls itself “The Magic City.” It is a city of some ten or twelve thousand population and undoubtedly has a good future ahead of it. Its location settles bat. Like all towns founded in frontier days, it has a history that includes some rough tales. But the city is getting away from the conditions of such days and is becoming a very satisfactory place in. which to live. There are, of course, no open saloons in the city, for it is one of the provisions of North Dakota’s state constitution' that there shall be no saloons within its borders. That there is some sale of intoxicants throughout the state, that drug stores find ways of evading the law and harvesting illegitimate dollars, citizens of Rensselaer could easily understand. But that conditions are as bac as in a neighboring state, where saloons are permitted, no one acquainted with conditions in the two states could well affirm.

The coming of the state normal means much to Minot. It is acting as a stimulant to move the citizens to prove themselves capable of providing a decent environment for the institution. It will bring many citizens to live here. It brings many lectuers, entertainments, etc., which are sure to react wholesomely on the city. The presence of sucQra body of young people as fill the halls of state normal schools will also have a salutary influence, as well as an inspiring one. I might write more, but this must suffice. If I can furnish to ahy one

interested in this region information along the line of his interests, I shall be glad to do so, though of course my brief residence here makes iny fund of information limited. Mrs. Clarke and I retain i only pleasant recollections of our brief sojourn in Rensselaer and we wish to take this opportunity of extending greetings and best wishes to all our friends there. Very, truly yours, Wm. F. CLARKE.

Delphi Paper Speaks Well Of New Superintendent.

The Republican a few days ago mentioned that Prof. C. F. Bradshaw, formerly principal of the schools of this city, had been selected superintendent of the Delphi schools. Of him the Carroll County Citizen-Times says: “Prof. Charles Forrest Bradshaw, prnicipal of the Noblesville schools, has been selected by the Delphi school board to fill the vacancy of superintendent, caused by the resignation of Prof. H. A. Henderson, who goes to Greencastle. Mr. Bradshaw is 32 years of age, a member of the Christian church, and a teacher of extraordinary ability. He is a graduate of the< Pittsboro, Indiana, high school, a graduate of the Central Normal college, and a graduate of Indiana University, class of 19O8.'He has been principal of the Noblesville schools for three years and prior to that was principal of the Rensselaer schools. He will graduate from Chicago univeisity this summer. The members of the city school board made a thorough investigation of Mr. Bradshaw’s characteristics and even visited the Noblesville schools to make sure that their choice was a good one. The noblesville people hold him in high regard and regret that they are to lose him from their midst. He is an energetic, determined -young man, one who carries out anything he undertakes to a successful finish. He is interested in athletics and the school board feel sure that he will be j/opular with the patrons of the schools and the students. Mr. Bradshaw will come to Delphi as a married man, although at this time he is unmarried. It is generally understood that a delightful young woman, familiar with school work and extremely popular in\ Noblesville, will come to pelphi with the new superintendent as his bride. Nearly fifty applications for the position of superintendent of the Delphi schools were received and the members of the school board are to be congratulated on the choice of a man, whose training for the work and whose success in other schools, bespeaks for him a successful term here and the hearty co-operation of our people.
