FOR new BUILDING
Minnesota Manufacturers Take Steps
Toward Exclusive Building
~ at Fair Grounds. 1872 -
Committee of Fourteen Appointed to
Prepare Appropriation Bill for
.-.. the legislature

Minnesota manufacturers who make a
practice of exhibiting at the state fair will
unite in an appeal to the state legislature
to make a suitable appropriation for a
manufacturers building provided with
power, so that their machinery can be
shown to advantage A committee Of
fourteen members, headed by former Sen
ator Henry Keller of St. Cloud. was direct
ed to prepare a bill and memorial and pre-
sent them to the next meeting Of the leg
salture.
This was the net result of the meeting
Of manufacturers called by the Northwest
"ern Manufacturers Association last eve
ming. Cd, 49,, -. :
The dinner which preceded the meeting
was we'll attended and proved to be a very
pleasant affair. President A: X. Pruden
of the Northwestern Manufacturers Asso-
citation presided at the dinner and at the
business meeting. az
Whereas, The Minnesota manufacturers
give employment to $4,000 people and pay
out 1000, 900 per annum in wages, and
contribute over $1,000, 900 in taxes to sup
port the state and local government and
Whereas, The best and greatest inter-
ests In Minnesota are its farms and facto-
ries, which go hand in hand together, the
one building up the other, and
/ Whereas, The proud position occupied
by the farmers in this state has been due
to the generous grants of the state leg1sla-
ture, and by the efforts of the Minnesota
State Agricultural Society, who have year
after year stimulated and encouraged the
farmers by awards of diplomas and prizes,
and the holding Of an annual state fair

stalk and gills that remain white even
at maturity. are it's leading character
istics, all Of which should be observed
carefully in picking any white-gilled
mushrooms. Many of the wtite-gilled va
rieties are among the best edible mush-
rooms but if they unite with that fea-
ture any of these others they should be
dealt with cautiously. No beginner in
mushroom study should think of using any
mushrooms with white gills and a
sheathed or scabby bulb at the base of
the stem. '-.t..4
There Is an interesting difference be-
tween the several specimens of the poi
sonous amanita family shown at the fair.
The muscaria, while dangerous, Is an
alkaloid poison that has been treated with
success. Its symptoms manifest them
selves promptly. The poison of the phil
loids are death cup. and the velatipes
are narcotic poisons whose action is slow
and no bad effects Of eating them may
show for six or eight hours or even long
er. The symptoms are not so violent as
in the case Of muscaria poisoning, but no
certain antidote has yet been discovered
and very few victims or the 'deStrOylnS
angels" recover.
The plates showing the half-dozen red
cards marked Poisonous" are examined
with great interest, by the crowds that
constantly surround the mushrooms, but
the one specimen that attracts the eye
of every one is an immense giant pun
ball sent by M. G. Chase, 1927 Sixth
street Sc. The various forms Of coral
mushrooms and others looking like fine
tufts of white moss excite much comment
as we'll as the specimens Of parasite
mushrooms. In the latter the parasite
plant grows directly out Of the top of a
deformed specimen of some other variety.
Sometimes a whole group of smaller
mushrooms draw their substance from
another plant. Both portions OF this
freakish combination are edible.
The awards in the mushroom display
will not be made until the end Of the
week. Most of the members of the Min
neapols Theological club have exhibited
Jointly but there are a number of indi-
vidual exhibitors outside Of the club, one
woman from st. Paul sending splendid
collection.

nowhere more noticeable than in the prac-

at Mrs. Margaret Blair's interesting
demonstration of skirt-m making was small
and the hostess shivered about with little

Government Experts Show Fair Visitors
-" = How IT ls Done =. ~
After talking: good roads for three days,
the government experts are now making
good roads at the fair grounds. They
have selected the road leading through
the grounds north Of the headquarters
building and extending west from Smelling
avenue as the scene Of their, operations.
It is not the best place for a denaonstra-
ton, as the road is in constant use and
the work necessarily interferes with the
regular traffic. -
- 1t was at first planned to leave sections
Of rnacadam and dirt roads in various
stages of completion in order to illustrate
more graphically the process, but this has
been found impossible for the reasons
mentioned. However, sections Of Vari-
Gus kinds of macadam will be laid, trap
rock from Taylors Falls, granite
boulders and limestone being used sepa-
rately. There will also be dirt roads and
gravel roads.
Actual road building began this morn
ing, when the street was attacked by
plows and clewerly constructed machines
which dug into the soil and excavated a
ditch 16 feet wide. and about inches
deep.
At the same time a big rock crusher
was breaking big limestone blocks into
bits. The larger pieces were laid at the
bottom Of the ditch, while patent re-
volving screen was sorting the crushed
limestone into various sizes which were
judiciously spread in the ditch. 1t was
a worse looking highway than the rocky
! road to Jericho" but monster road
| roller weighing 10000 pounds, or Is tons,
soon smoothed matters out. While the
! road roller was doing it's stunt, the rock
| crew was working further ahead and at
the end of the line the road-making ma
chimes were digging up the soil at great
| rate.
The crusher was now taking huge gran
! tie boulders' into it's "innards' and was
chewing them into little pieces with nc
more effort than would be required tc
| grind corn.
| The crowds at the various stages Of
work were Of goodly size and the indi-
viduals seemed to be deeply interested
Martin Dodge, director of the govern.
ment's bureau of road inquiry, watched
| the work with keen interest, as did othel

Professional GO-between Causes Happ1
Marriages


The happiness which is characteristic
Of Jewish married life is due to the
fact that the great majority OF the
weddings among our people are
brought about by matchmaking, either
conducted by relatives or by the pro-
fessional schatchen, says Marcus Ilel
,eE in the New York News.
The love match is the stem from
which grows the uhhappy marriage.
The reason Tor this should be plain to
the thoughtful person.
The young man and young woman 10
love are totally blinded to each o,Aef s
defects, and consequently each expects
Cf the other perfection in the married
life. Marriage is an eye-opener, ami
necessarily a disappointment to them,
since perfection resides In no one
Quarrels and the divorce court follow
When relatives make the match, as
is the custom with many of our peop q,
ana with the peasantry Of France ana
Ireland, this danger is overcome in
great measure, although the blood re-
lationship of the matchmaker is apt 10
require too much for the relative under
that plan. Yet, in comparison VIVA

happy indeed. as observation and read.

The ideal marriage. the one most
nearly sure to result in full, satisfying
and complete happiness, is the one 10
which a schatchen-the meaning of the
word Is faithful messenger or
someone exercising that function. dis
covers the exact suitability of the man
and woman for each other and brings
them together.
The schatchen is the Jewish proles-
sional matchmaker There ought 20 be
such a calling among our people OF oil

success of the macital union and 10 az

because the success Of his calling de-

so often melts away IN marriage.
