GEN. WIDELL WITHDRAWS
Nankato Man is Not After Political
Honors.
Secretary of State Hanson's Job
Has no Aiiuremenfs.
His Retirement Leaves Clear Field
for Louis G. Vogel.

General Gustaf Widell returned home
late Saturday night after an absence
of q week on business. AS usual when
he is gone for a few days he found a
large bunch of mail matter awaiting
his attention, among which were a
score or more letters from friends in
quiring whether Or not he would con-
sent to the use of his name for secre-
tary Of state.
Seen by a representative of The Free
Press this morning the question was
put to Mr.. Widell as to whether chad
fully made up his mind about becoming
q candidate for secretary of state.
This was his answer:
eyes, I have fully made up my
mind. I shall not be a candidate. This.
decision has been reached after due
consideration of my business interests.
The past year has been a busy one
with me and the coming season promises
TO be even more exacting on my time,
hence [ shall have little or no time for
politics.
eff You please, you may say that /.
am not unmindful of the distinctive
honors that my friend would show me
by a nomination to the Office of secre-
tary Of state, and for their generous
prefer Of support am truly grateful.
1t will be my pleasure, as 1 feel it is
my duty, to give what time can spare
from business to the success of the Re-
publican party and its nominees on the
state ticket III
have you anything to say regard
ing the criticisms that some OF the
papers have INDUCED in about your
candidacy having been inspired for
the purpose of chastising Secretary
Hanson on account of his declaring
for Dunn for governor? ..-
'That really is the most silly twadle
| ever heard Of" replied the general.
''Of course my friends know that I
would not lend myself to small-bore
politics of this kind. Mr.. Hanson has
just as much right to declare his choice
for governor as anybody else. The
propriety of SO doing I am not dis
cussing, for that is d matter that he
must be the sole judge2of. l am a per-.
sonal friend of Mr.. Hansona and expect:
to see him nominated without OPP
position. He will have no more ardent
supporter than your humble servant
Or a more earnest we'll wisher. This
statement ought to ease the minds of
some of the newspaper boys who
thought they discovered an ominous
shadow following~the discussion of
my NAME
Mr.. Widell did not care to discuss
the governorship question further than
to say that he was strongly inclined to
Judge Collins candidacy and ex-
pressed the belief that he would be
nominated. M anlSato Free Press. -.
Considerable local interest attaches
to the foregoing declaration, as set

Victory For Millers.

The office employees of the Eagle
Roller Mill Company, are not only an
efficient, set Of bookkeepers, but they
also shine in sporting circles. This
they demonstrated by their base ball
team of last season, which left an
enviable record to their credit, and
also by the game of ten pins rolled
last Wednesday night against the
clerks OF Crone Bros. Department
Store. The Eagles easily took the
first two games but their opponents
captured the last game. The score:

GET TING READY TO CAST
Chas. Leonhardt WILSON Make
Trip Hammer.
Is Having Wooden Patterns Pre-
pared For Casting.
His Invention Has Several Points
of Superiority.

Charles Leonhardt, proprietor Of
the New Ulm Foundry and Machine
shop, is getting ready to cast his first
trip hammer. He is having wooden
patterns made and in about a month
will pour the metal. Before that is
done, however, new and larger cast
ing boxes must be provided and twill
be necessary for the owner of the foun-
dry to go to considerable expense to
fit up his plant for the manufacture of
the big hammer.
The one he is now making will be
the largest casting ever turned out by
the local foundry. It will be about
seven feet in height, have 5O-pound
hammer and when set up will weigh
nearly 1900 pounds. If, when tested,
T it proves satisfactory, he will manu-
facture them on an extensive scale
and will turn them out in several
sizes.
Mr.. Leonhardt invented the device
about a year ago and he claims for it
several points of superiority over trip
hammers now offered on the market.
In the first place it is more powerful,
it being constructed in such a manner
that longer stroke may be obtained
and the hammer raised or lowered
without diminishing the force of the
blow. This is not found in other ma
chimes, they being built with station
airy hammer head, which does not al
low of regulation Of the length of a
stroke.
Simplicity of construction is OBJ
tanned by casting the iron frame and
anvil.in solid piece and a feature
will be the long hammer head On the
smallest size, the one now building,
there will be II inches of space between
the foot of the hammer and the surface
Of the anvil. This allows an 8-inch
stroke when the weight is in it's normal
position, but a piece OF iron of that
thickness may be placed in the space
dzstill leave an 8-inch stroke, this
result being obtained by elevating the
walking beam to which the hammer is
attached.
This walking beam is distinct nov
city in trip hammers. With most of
them the length of stroke is regulated
by means of a crank placed above the
hammer. This crank restricts the
length Of the drop to four or six inch
es but Mr.. Leonhardt has eliminated
the bad feature by placing the crank
at the rear of the machine and substi-
tuting movable walking beam, which
may be raised or lowered at will.
His machine is designed to do all
sorts of work and once successful
demonstration is made it will be in
great demand by blacksmiths and ma
chinists. One southern Minnesota firm
has made large fortune manufacture
ing trip hammers and Mr.. Leonhardt
will find wide field when he is ready
to sell his hammer. He will make
them in three sizes and all of the parts
VII be cast in his foundry.

hen till you require them Tor breeding
at two years, says II. Fuller in West
ern .Ioultry journal. 1t pays every
poultry breeder to build small pen
for his male birds and keep them
separate-the fertility of your eggs
will pay you 100 per cent. Male birds
should be well fed and kept dry dur
iRg mott AS soon as one has mott:
ed his spurs should be taken Off, as a
bird kept from hens develops Il very
loug spur. yaking the spur off is cas-
lily done by rsAsting II potato and while
hot pushing the potato on the spur up
to the leg. holding it there for thirty
or forty seconds; then the spur can be
twisted off. You are not troubled with
q spur again if he lives for ten years.

Winter EkOnStiglS Chickens, /,

Winter roasting chickens are prab-
ably the most profitable fowls produc-
ed, says l.. T.. Keyser in Western
Poultry journal. The Matching is done
from October to Christmas, and the
birds are sold when from four to six
months old and at time when good
poultry is scarce The birds usually
weigh from five to eight pounds each
and sell in New York and Boston ut
from is to 80 cents per pound, those
marketed from February to April usl-
ally bringing close to the. latter price,
these fowls being largely preferred to
capons, which for long time were the
only good poultry to be had. aside from
broilcrs. after the holidays, and the
price for soft roasting chickens is
usually higher than the capons. The
breeds used for this class of poultry
are Plymouth Rocks. Brahmas, Co
chins and crosses Of the same. One or
two plants in Pennsylvania are using
White Wyandottes.

Buyfn" Pure Breeds.

II a farmer desires to improve. let
him begin with pure bred males, says
an Ohio poultryman in American Agri-
culturist If he gets male every year.
let it be of the breed he originally Sc
lected. In two Or three years he will
have the fiocks uniform. and they will
grow better and better every season
and at a cost that is almost inSignif-
cant. If neighbors desire to Improve,
let them cooperate in purchasing pure
breeds. and if they refuse then he
should compel them to pay him for his
enterprise when they call with Il sit
ting Of eggs from mongrel hens to be
exchanged for something better. A
dollar or two invested in pure breeds
will make difference in the quality
OF the stock and the number Of eggs
laid of more than ten times the cost
Of the birds purchased. -. .'s -.

POulfrY Notes,

1t isn't bad idea by any means to
put a little pine tar in the drinking
vessels ut. this time Of the year. It
will help to ward Off disease and keep
!. the fowls healthy. y y
s..aP s Provide plenty Of d,ist in the poultry
house and runs for the winter.
Too much salt in the food produces
too great thirst, often resulting in

The Working Hen.

The prevailing idea in poultry feed
ing just now seems to center around
the word ''exercise" Feed with n
view OF making the fowls work for it.
A writer in discussing when to feed
mash keeps this idea in mind when he
writes: The idea that hens require
feed of soft mash early in the morn
ing is mistaken one and has often
proved the first step toward failure
with beginners. Hens need exercise
