Schools can qualify you for the
highest.

Itasca county, Mimi, Wednesday.
He is engaged in the homestead To-
eating business with headquarters
at International Falls.
J. G. Johnson, accompanied by
his wife and son Walter, made a
business trip last week TO north
western North Dakota, returning
Saturday night. The country, as an
agricultural proposition, did not
commend itself to his favorable con-
sideration.
The Milton Dairy Co. of ST. Paul
are doing good business here at
their receiving station with Herman
]. Schiek as agent. They receive
cream at this station every other
day, from Is to 80 cans of 10 gallons
each-800 gallons week. The
business now amounts to double
what it was last year.
Rev. A. T. Erickson arrived here
last week and assumed his duties as
pastor of the Baptist church. The
church had been without a pastor
since the retirement of Rev. Bewick
early in the year. Elsewhere we
print reference to Mr.. Erickson
from a paper published at Granite
Falls, Mimi, where he had preached
several years.
It seems that some boys have
broken into the reservoir on the
mound. The city offers $500 re-
ward for the fellows that did it.
The boys had better keep out of the
reservoir. There is too much water
to wade in, it isn't a good place to
swim and there is danger of spoil
ing the water if one of them stays in
there too long. 1t is easier to fall
in than to get out. Waukesha is a
better place to stay.
Charles E. Darling, died at the
home of his neice Mrs. B. L. Grant,
at Hudson, May 18th and was buried
the 18th under the direction of the
Masons. He was born in Vermont
in 1884, came to Hudson in 1857,
where he had since resided. In
1859 he had a partnership interest
in store here with ]. S. Webb, but
did not reside here. He leaves no
family, his wife and only son having
gone before him. He was an uncle
of Mrs. George Currier of this city.
Chas. E. Nelson has taken charge
of the printing department at the
JOURNAL office. The place is famil-
lar to him as he worked here for
three years previous to 1900. He
has moved his family into the Peter
son house on the west side. Mr..
Nelson has been studying the prin-
ter's trade for more than twenty
years. He has an eye for symme-
try, good taste in designing, and is
painstaking and solicitious to please
the patrons who desire a good job
of commercial or artistic printing.
Wonderful isn't it to think of
getting -four from Minneapolis
made from No. hard wheat, when
the fact is less than per cent. of
the wheat in store at Minneapolis is
No. l hard and less than 2 per cent.
of the receipts grade No. l
hard in the past month and a large
part of this goes to country mills.
