story Of DR.. Hailes.

DR.. William Hailes, of the Albany Medi-
cal college, is very fond of joke, and can
give as well as take one. Among the stu
dents in anatomy is one who answers to
the somewhat unusual cognomen of Crow
when he answers at all-for this student
was, as the doctor facetously observed a
week after the opening of college. when
for the first time he answered roll call,
a rare bird. After an unusually prolonged
period of abseneeism, the student present.
ed himself the other day, and one of his
classmates tried to explain that he must
have been detained by game of crowkuet!
The racket which succeeded this remark
made no impression on the doctor. With
out needing the diversion, he proceeded to
express his great pleasure at the wander
er's return, and then convulsed the class
by quickly remarking: "Why I am de-
lighted to see you, Mr.. Grow, what is both
ering me is whether there is any necessary
connection between the absence Of your

A Michigan Farmer Visits Saskatoon
and IL Well Pleased.
Mr.. S. X. Lent was delegate sent
from the farmers of Allegan County,
Michigan, to Western Canada, to re-
port on the prospects for successful
settlement. His report is as follows:
1 went from Winnipeg to Edmonton,
thence east one hundred miles by wag-
on. 1 found the country in that vicin-
ity rich, black loan, varying from IL
inches to feet deep; the crops are
simply something enormous; wheat
and oats by actual measurement often
standing feet in height. have been
farmer for 40 years, and consider my
self fair judge of the yield of grain,
and I saw wheat that would yield so
bushels per acre, and oats that would
yield 100 bushels per acre; not one
alone but good many. AS for root
crops and garden truck, in no country
have T ever seen their equal for all
kinds except corn and tomatoes; the
nights being too cool for these to
ripenwell. AS stock country it has
no equal. East of Edmonton, on the
head waters of the Vermillion River,
saw hay meadows containing from 10
to 100 acres, the grass standing feet
high, and would often cut to 4 tons to
the acre. From Edmonton I passed
through some fine locations, namely,
Wetaskiwin, Lacombe and other
points.
From Macleod I went to Regina,
thence to Prince Albert, 247 miles
north of the main line. For the first
so miles is fine farming country, but
the next hundred miles is more of
stock country. Then at Saska toon,
Rosthern and Duck Lake I found some
very fine farming country, so good
that found a party of Americans
from Minnesota buying land for them
selves-one party buying 10 sections,
and the other 20 sections of land for
themselves, which they proposed to
improve at once.
T have Travelled over 20 different
States and Territories in our Union,
and never in my life time have I ever
seen such magnificent crops and es-
pecially as fine stock country.

Board Of Control.

State normal schools are charitable
institutions, for the purposes of the
Board of Control Act, and are subject
to the financial supervision of the
State Board of Control.
So held Justices Lovely, Brown and
Lewis, of the supreme court. The
long-awaited opinion was handed
down, and furnished a surprise to all
concerned. The court was known to
be divided, but the general opinion
was that the normal board would win.
The Normal Board will have to
knuckle down to the Board of Con-
troll, and submit to the financial direc-
ton of that body.
What is more. the majority decision
is broad enough to include the State
University under the act, and make
it equally subject to the Board of Con-
troll, if that body asserts it's authority.
Dissenting opinions are filed by
Chief Justice Start, and by Justice
Collins, who hold alike, but make sep
arate arguments. Both are very posi-
tive in arraigning the majority de-

Beet Sugar.
After a run of 100 days, the long
est in it's history, the plant of the
Minnesota Sugar Company at St. Louis
Park concluded its seasons run.
Not only was the run the longest
yet made, but the production was the
heaviest and the seasons work the
most prosperous.
The total output of sugar for tho
season was 100000 pounds, OF 1900
tons, which was manufactured at the
rate of twenty-five tons day. This
shows an increase of 100000 pounds
over the amount produced last year.
The entire product is marketed in
Minneapolis and St. Paul and no at
tempt is made to reach other cities in
the country.
The manufacture of this product re-
, quired the consumption of 10000 tons
aof beets, which were raised upon
farms within radius of sixty miles
of the factory, along the lines of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, the
Great Northern and the Minneapolis
& St. Louis roads.
