Experiment Stations.

A correspondent Of Agricultural Ad-
vertising says:
THE state experiment stations are
each expanding something like $780,
600 a year in teaching agriculture in
their various commonwealth. and
the taxpayers r paying the freight.
but I doubt II one Of these establish
ments is doing as much good as one
well-conducted agricultural Journal. the
expense of which Outlines is carried
by one individual. The papers are at
it continuously, and the work goes on
forever, like the water that turns the
mill, while an agricultural college re-
ceives great praise for getting out four
measley little bulletins q year, and
some Of these are 90 technical al to be
utterly useless to the ordinary reader"
The Farmers Review does not be-
lieve that the above 10 q correct view
Of the matter. There 10 simply no
common ground Of comparison between
a newspaper and an experiment
station. The work Of the former Is to
take the truth and lay 1t before its
readers. The work Of the latter 10 to
ascertain the truth. An experiment
station IL not to be Judged by the bull
letins it issues or the quantity Of work
done. 1t 10 to be Judged by the faith
fulness Of its Investigations, whether
they be fruitful or fruitless. The ex-
pertinent stations have done an inn
mense amount Of valuable work since
1857, when they came into existence.

MISTAKEN OR IGNORANT

The Waseca Herald still maintains
that the government has lost nothing
in it's purchase of silver, and says the
reason is that the government has
not purchased the silver" and it fur.
ther says that 1.-The silver held by the
government, as trustee or warehouser,
cannot be bought of the government
at any price. for it does not belong to

ther in commenting upon the state.
ment of the FREE PRESS that the
government had lost 1920, 900, 900 in
the purchase Of silver, it says:
1t is strange that any newspaper
writer, having any respect for himself
or the paper he edits, can so misstate
the law and the facts regarding money
matters; and the only charitable con-
clusiun is that he is ignorant of both
the law and the facts.
Indeed it is strange that a writer
will $50 misstate the law and the facts
regarding money Matters" as the
Herald has, and we are sorry it is SO
ignorant of the subject it has tackled
and the "only charitable conclusion
is" that its editor has allowed his
Populistic notions to run riot without
regard to law or facts, or to use his
own language he belongs to that
class that does not see because it re-
fuses to see." But we would recon-
mend that the Herald read the law in
regard to'the purchase of silver by the
government before it undertakes to
discuss the matter any further, and
it will find what every school boy
knows, that the government owns the

silver now in it's vaults, and provided

silver now in it's vaults, and provided
for its purchase by the act of 1878,
known as the Bland-Allison act, and
act Of 1890, known as the Sherman
law, and that the silver has not been
received on deposit. OF course the
silver cannot be bought from the gov
eminent as the treasury officials can
not sell without authority of congress-
The Herald will also find that provi-
sion was made in the act of 1878. for
the issue of silver certificates on the
silver dollars coined :; This was done
as a matter of convenience because
the people prefer the paper to the
heavy silver. 1t will also fnd that
the government pledges to maintain
the parity of gold and silver, notwith-
standing the Herald says it is not so.
If the Herald editor will refer to
the act of 1873, heEwiIl find these
words regarding the purchase of sill
yer by the government: And the
secretary Of the treasury is author
lied and directed to purchase, fr' m
time to time, silver bullion, atatI e
market price ther of, not less than
two million dollars worth per month,
nor more than fo1E million dollars
worth per month, and cause the same
to be coined monthly, as fast as pur-
cbocod into cnoh 1o1loro This n IN,
was carried out by the treasury Off
cials by the purchase OF about two
million dollars worth a month. until
the law of 1890 went into effect This
act provided that sthe secretary of
the treasury is hereby directed to
purchase, from time to time, silver
bullion TO the aggregate amount of
four million five hundred thousand
ounces or so much thereof as may be
offered in each month, and
to issue in payment of such purchases
of silver bullion treasury notes of the
United, States" This was done until
the repeal of this cause in the latter
part of 1893. All of this silver so pur-
chased4is held at parity with gold
because the government pledge is be-
hind it. 1t is owned by the govern
ment and is not on deposit, and like
amount today at the market price
would cost about 1920, 900, 900 less than
the government paid for it. In pri-
vate transaction this would be re-
garded as a loss to the purchaser.

At about ten o'cloekAlast night the
fire department., was. called out by a
blaze at Wagon Bros. Slaughter house,
near the. river bank several blocks
northwest from the Minneapolis &
St. Louis depot. 1t was too far from
the water mains to string hose, and
the fire was under such head way when
it was discovered that nothing could
be done to save the building. Wagon
Bros. estimate their loss at $780, with
no insurance. They lost their build
ing. tools and beef slaughtered yes
terday. They will rebuild at once.
Chas, j. Macbeth had eight or ten
barrels of tallow in the slaughter
house, valued at S14 barrel, and
this is a total loss.
The fire is supposed to have started
from fire that was left in the build
ing last night. 1t had been built un-
der a kettle for rendering purposes.
Sparks may have ignited the building.

prettily decorated for the occasion,
and particularly an alcove, where the
ceremony was performed. The Con-
cordia orchestra was present and fur

The bridal party walked in when the
we'll known strains of MeDdelsOhn's

served. The bride received some very
pretty testimonials of esteem.
The bride looked beautiful in a
dress in white Swiss, perfectly plain,
and wore a diamond brooch, gift
from the groom. She carried a
bouquet of white roses.
The brides maid was prettily
costumed in yellow organdie, and
carried a bouquet of yellow roses.
