A WORD TO PARENTs.-If you
wish to make your son like his bus
mess place him in responsible places.
He will take more interest in his
work and be much more likely to
succeed when he starts for himself.
Don't make slaves of your children.
For want of proper training, many
a young man has grown up without
discipline. He has been able to
run through In an incredibly short
space of time all that his strong
minded father left him. Twenty
years ago we knew such a man.
To-day his son owns poor old span
of horses and is living from hand
TO mouth-and a very poor living
he gets at that. The fine estate
slipped easily from the son who had
no skill to manage it. So one gen
GRAFTON makes money for the next
to squander.

THE common white or yellow
cedar of the North seems to be

mercisl value. The readers OF the
Lumberman have been told how
Bird g Holconb, of Menominee,
Mich, are cutting large quantities
of it into shingles, FOR which quite E
demand he's sprung up. It's value
for fence posts IS already well
known. It is used throughout the
West more commQnly than any
other wood. It is also being used
largely for paving blocks, and its
worth is clearly demonstrated to be
greater than pine for that purpose.
L. S. Whitcome q Co., of this city,
(Chicago) have cut large quar- titles
Of blocks this season which have
been laid in our streets. The city
council has passed an ordinance pro-
yiding that hereafter all pavements
laid in Chicago shall be sof eight
inch, round cedar blocks upon a
foundation of two inch hemlock
plank. Or the value and durability
of such pavements there can be no
question. 1t has been that, in
Chicago at least, pine pavements

than three or four years. Cedar
has been known to last three or four
times as long.
Messrs. Whitcomb g Co. are
among the largest operators in
cedar in the West. They have q
miniature saw mill IN their yard on
Twenty-second street, where they
saw and trim all the posts they
handle. When the margins in the

panles for statistics of land sales in
Minnesota in 1877, to be included
in his forthcoming annual report,
has received answers which show
the rapid absorption Of territory in
consequence of the demonstrated
fertility of the soil, and its aston
ishing productiveness, especially in
the summer of 1877. According to
the official intormatio thus secured
the total number of homestead en-
tries i'll the State last year was q
924; pre-emption claims filed, 1929;
number of entries under tree cui-
ture act, 1924; sash entries, $50
total entries of all classes amount
ing to 6,639-exclusive of those
made at the United States land
office at Taylors Falls, st. Cloud
and Fergus Falls, which reported
the number of acres disposed of,
but not the number of entries. The
number of acres taken up for settle
ment under the entries above de-
tailed and classified, shows q grand
and surprising total of one million
six thousand five hundred and
twenty during the past year alone
In addition to the above, the ST.
Paul & Pacific company sold 3OO,,
900 acres last year, ten per cent. O.
which will be broken during the
ensuing summer. The Winona &
St. Peter company sold 18,51s
acres, the Southern Minnesota com
pany sold 1852 acre3-making The
grand total Of acreage disposed o
by the government and railroads
during the last year amounting te
1,326,67O exclusive CT the 81. Pau

BE TRUE TO YoURsELF.-Noth-
ing hurts q man more than to seem
small and igno6le in his eyes, 1t is
the slavish feelings that degrades
.he slave. 4 base ambition makes
the man that cherishes it base. No
one can debase you but yourself.
SANDER, satire, falsehood, injustice
these can never rob you of your
manhood. Men may lie about you,
they may denounce you, they may
cherish manifold suspicious, they
may make your failings the target
of their wit or cruelty-never be
alarmed, never swerve ar inch from
the line your judgment and con-
science have marked out for you.
They cannot by all their efforts
take away Your knowledge of your
self, the purity of your motives,
the integrity of your character, and
the generosity of your nature.
While those are left, you are, in
point of fact, unharmed.
