Success to The HERALD.

Something in the line of exem-
pliication of what soil and climate
may produce is going to be DEM
onstrated at the model truck farm
of Messrs. Barlow and Rucker, at
the Linton place in the south su-
burb of Brownsville. On every
hand throughout their large gar
dens may be seen evidences of the
experimental nature of their work
every little hillock being so mark
ed as to indicate that there is plant
ed some kind of tree, shrub, vine
or plant. They have planted many
kinds of figs and grapes, besides
paper shell pecans, prunes, and
many delicate nuts and fruits OF
tropical or semi-tropical origin, as
we'll as every variety of choice
vegetables, including celery, arti-
chokes, tomatoes, watermelons, etc.
Messrs. Rucker and Barlow are
giving constant attention to the
work they Lave undertaken, and
the results will show by another
year what kinds of vegetables and
fruits are best adopted to this local
ity. A visit to their place is well
worth while.

The first act takes place in the home
of Rudolph DinkelspieI., a horse doc

of the cleverest and funniest delinea-

absence of his wife, has rented a
furnished fiat in an apartment build
ing. Staying with him is Young
friend, Jack Marden. His servants
include cook of pugilistic tendencies,
by name RoSalind McGovern, and n
maid. The maid is in reality the SOU
brette of the Casino; she is to play
slavery character in the next pro-
duction there. and wishing to know
her character at first hand has en-
gagged to have her understudy play
her role in the piece then, running so
that she can go forth and accumulate
actual experience. The fiat across the
hall from Rudolph has been rented by
Adolph Dinkenspeil. a ladies' tailor.

WILL BUILD FEEDER DAM
ON HENNEPIN THIS YEAR

The government engineers In charge
of the work on the Hennepin canal

preparations for the work of build
ing the great government dam across
Rock river to supply the feeder, near
Sterling. 1t is now being planned to
build the dam during the next sum
mer at the place where the engineers
first made their plans for it, and it
is likely that work will be begun as
soon as possible in the spring on this.
the biggest undertaking in the project
for the canal. Most of the material
for the concrete work on the dam
has been prepared for use and piled
up on the south bank of the river
near the end of the feeder. The rest
of it will be procured as soon as posi-
BILE and the estimates for it are be-
ing made out by the engineers now.
1t was thought some time ago that
this part of the work would not be
commenced this year, but that the
entire attention of the government
would be directed to the building of
bridges and the big aqueduct over
Green river. This arrangement has
been changed lately, however, and if
nothing in the way of changing the
location Of the dam is accomplished
by the Sterling Hydraulic company
before spring. the dam will be built
as stated above on the original site.

Of the hOspita BILE manner in which

1t was the third annual meeting of
the society and the attendance was
double what it was at either of the
previous gatherings. If one failed in
enjoying himself he could not have
chalked it up against anyone but him
self.
The loafers are entitled to the medal
as entertainers. They had made elab-
crate preparations. far surprising
their former efforts. Three thousand
sandwiches were exposed in the Edg-
ingtOn hall when the dinner bell was
sounded. Steaming coffee, milk that
would bring one of those smiles that
won't come off to q baby, and spark
ling water were served, but nothing
stronger.
The greater part of the morning
was occupied with the initiation cere-
monies, as there were many on hand
who had not received the loafers'
first degree. The candidates were as
sembled i'll a room on the second story
