Willnlar is tal'SIng right earnestly
about forming IL stock company fol
the purpose OF putting in a plant to
manufacture binding Irvine. The
amount of capital needed is 10000
divided into shares of $25 each. The
Willmar Republican Gazette says:
The cost OF putting in a plant of so
spindles, to occupy a floor space
50X1OO feet, engage 25 hands, and
manufacture $500 pounds of binding
twlne per day, would be in the neigh
borhood of thirty thousand dollars.
1t is figured that the profits from this
mandatory would be very large.
The raw materials needed for the
manufacture of the Irvine can be
grown on the farms of the county at
a small cost, and at the same time to
the profit of those engaged in such
growing; the cost of manufacturing
per pound will be light and the twlne
can thus be put on the market at a
net cost that will surprise those who
have not looked into the matter. The
establishing of such a factory here,
manufacturing Irvine from materials
grown in the county, would effectual-
ly down the robber Irvine trusts, and
farmers would be sure of securing
their Irvine in the future at Il reason
able figure.
What's the matter with Morris
that she can't have a Irvine manu-
factory? If such an institution can
be made profitable in Willmar, it
certainly car III our town. A COM
mittee of Willmar business men have
visited Chicago and Peoria, Ill.,, and
gained all necessary information In
relation to the manufacture of Irvine,
the cost, profits, &c.

The following from the Crookston
Times will probably interest Y MOT
ris sportsmen: Conductor Copeiahu
tells of a novel method OF killing
geese which a couple of Devils Lake
artists have invented. A frame 10
constructed which represents the
anatomy of an OK. This Is covered
with light canvass with hair glued 10
the outside. Slots m cue at the DOT
tom SO that walking may be MADE
easy. The structure comes far enough
down so that it and the grass cover
the legs. Into this two men place
themselves, one forward ana the
other aft, with the structure resting
on their shoulders. The wise geese
are completely fooled-until the side
of the OK drops suddenly and q num-
Der of them are dead. These two
geese slayers killed in this manner IN
three days 134 geese, going out at ~
in the forenoon and returning to town
before dark. At one place there were
thousands of brant feeding on the
stubble and beyond them a large
number of geese; geese were prefer
able to brant, SO they walked directly
through the focks of brant ana
among the geese. Suddenly the side
of the OK gave way, four barrels were
discharged in rapid succession and
twenty-tliree geese We're killed.
While walking along at one time the
ear part of the OK suddenly halted;
the toward part of course was com-
PEELED to stop alsoS and hearing a
squeaking noise in his rear, turned
and beheld his companion holding a
jack rabbit by the ears, the unsuspect-
ing jack drea ming of danger to
himself from an innocent OK. Try it,
it works like a charm.

public Parks.

Yes, indeed, Lifchield may we'll be
proud of her pubic parks. They are
the great BEAUTY and attraction OF
the village. and we only wish that
Morris could boast Of having even
one park MS beautiful as Central PARK
at Litchfeld; and we might have
within q very few years il our people
would get q move on them In that di-
rection and take hold of the matter
as though they were in earnest and
Intended to do something. Just read
the following description OF the
Litchfield parks, furnished the Pio-
neer Press by a correspondent, and ii
you are not convinced that q public
park would be u good thing for our
city, then you are not the kind of
citizen that renders any very yalu-
able assistance in improving and
making Morris what it ought 10 be:
II there is one thing more than
another that the average citizen OF
Litchfield Is proud of, it is the city's
system of parks. Those who were at
the head OF affairs years ago were
blessed with admirable foresight, and
acted on their convictions. Central
Park, without doubt II of the hand
soonest little pieces of landscape in
the whole Northwest. is located, as
its name implies, in the central part
of the city, and occupies an entire
block The land was presented to the
city by the old St. Paul IL Pacific
Railroad company while Gen. Baker
was its president, and when he was
here a few days ago as a member of
the state railroad and warehouse COM
mission, he viewed his donation 10
Litchfield, and was prOfuse i'll his
praises Of the beautiful spot. Lake
Park contains about fifty acres, and is
being improved as fast as a lavish ex-
penditure of money can do it. IL
contains the buildings Of tie Meeker
County Agricultural societE, and one
of the best half-lnile tracks IN Minnie
sofa. Howard Park is II beauty. 1t
fronts on Sibley avenue, and tils only
objection that can be brought against
it il its small size. Besides tlsr>e are
Garfield Park, containing the grounds
and buildings of the LitchfieId Green
house company, South Park, North
Park and WALES Park. These are all
finely situated, and will be improved
as fast as the growth of the city rem
ders it desirable. If there is another
city in the whole Northwest that has
anything like the park system that
Litchfield has, we should like 10 hear
from 1t.
