are doing considerable driving, and it
would be nothing more than right to
provide little accommodation for
their speeding, without going so far as
the race track to do it.
If one draws load of stone and a
pine plank, and throws them down
upon a vacant lot, he is immediately |
accosted with by at least half a dozen
how large are you going to build, and
will you rent it to me ? Dwelling |
houses are so scarce, that dry goods
boxes we'll located, would be at a
premium for the want of something
better to live in.
An attractive and costly fence has
been made around the public school
block and it has been suggested the
fence will retain its new and attractive
appearance longer if horses are not
tied to it. TO remove the temptation
to fasen horses to this fence we would
suggest that few hitching posts be
placed at convenient points around
the yard.
The Rev. DR.. S. r. Riggs, one of the
earliest missionaries in Minnesota,
having come here first in 1887, died at
Beloit, Wis, on Friday. He has been
engaged of late in missionary work
among the Indians of Minnesota and
Dakota, and has given much study to
the language of the Dakotas, having
published number of text books and
a translatior Of the Bible IN that Ian
guage
Early blowing is in every way sup
erior to that done late in the fall or in
the spring. Experiments have shown,
| we think, conclusively that fields
plowed Immediately after the crop
has been removed will yield better
| and be more free from weeds than
| those plowed later. If this be true no
| time should be lost in starting the
plows throughout the fields of this
productive county.
| When the Manitoba road built two
extra side tracks here last year, it was
fearful lest it might have more than i
would ever have use for, but now i
learns to it's surprise, that the bust
ness has so increased at this point, i
has scarcely half enough. If it wer
not for room afforded by the Littl
Falls road in town, and the Brown
Valley Branch half mile below,
would be so badly blockaded that n
business could be done at all.

' 1t might not be a bad plan no

cheap, to purchase piece suitable fl

: felt to be burden. A few acres coul
be put into small trees at very sma
I cost, and as Morris grows in the futu
: it could be further improved accordir
+ to the taste of able pockets. We ma
not see the necessity of this just
present, but it will be only fe
years when we will, and then suitab

Morris has gained quite a number
