range country as such is but the
result of natural conditions
which are obvious to the person
who has kept in touch with the
general situation. 1t is estimat-
ed that the popula ton of the
United States is increasing con.
tinually at an average of 5000
more inhabitants every day, and
that fact means that as more
consumers are in evidence there
must be a constant increase in
the productive capacity of the
soil, and more land must be put
in cultivation. 1t is also stated
on competent authority that the
agricultural exports from this
country to all foreign countries
are annually increasing, and
that we must not only prepare
to take care of our own rapidly
increasing population, but must
figure on still further doing our
part toward feeding the world.
Conservative sta tisticians esti-
mate that by the time the year
1850 has arrived the population
of the United States, at its pres
ent ratio of increase, will
amount to $50, 100000, and that
means that much of the land
now devoted to grass will feel
the point of the ploughshare.
Under such circumstance as
these, the idea that the land
now passing into the hands Of
the farmer will eventually re-
vert to the Grange must appear
Utopian. The transformation

The Area of the Panhandle
Range is Being Reduced by
Constant Increase in
the Number of
Farms.

That the range country is be
ing annually reduced in area BY
the constant influx of settlers
not only in the Panhandle, but
throughout the entire range
country of Texas, is a well
known fact. But there are
many men engaged in the cattle
business who find solace in the
belief that the invasion of the
range precincts is but Temporal
ry, and that succeeding recur.
rences of drouths and other dis
asters will have the effect of
turning back the tide of immi-
grafton and again opening up
the country to the use Of the
stockman. Men who have been
in the cattle business for the
past twenty. five years point to
the fact that many previous eff
forts to convert portions of the
range country into an agricul-
tural community have resulted
disastrously, and insist that it
will again prove an exhibition
of history repeating itself.
1t is true that the roads from
New Mexico are filled with dis.

CURRENCY ForMail.

The advocates of the coupon dollar
claim that if it is adopted by the gov
eminent it will increase the advertis-
ing of mailable articles materially.
The coupon dollar is fractioned into a
fve-cent, two ten-cent, a twenty five
cent and a fifty cent coupon to conform
to the coins now in circulation and so
arranged that any number oftwentieths
of dollar can be cut off and mailed.
One mercantile house in Chicago is
said to receive in letters every year an
average of $3.50, 1000 in postage stamps.
There can be no question that postage
stamps are Objectionable used as
money. These objections are ap-
parent to anybody who has ever re-
ceived letters containing them. It is
expected that congress will be called
upon at the approaching session to
act on measure for the adoption of
the coupon dollar.

May Feed Rusted Straw.

Much has been said and printed on
the subject of feeding rusted straw to
stock. Dean Liggett of the Minnesota
Agricultural school does not agree
with those who think that rusted straw
is responsible for much sickness and
death in cattle and other stock. In
answer to an inquiry on the subject he
writes as follows:
s'Yours of the 18th came to my desk
during my absence from the station. [
note what you say relative to all the
wheat straw in your county being
badly rusted, and your inquiry as to
whether it is all right to feed cattle,
and is it in any way injurious to them;
if not, is it as good as if it was not
rusted?
A reasonable amount of rusted straw
fed with forage and other grain to
cattle will not injure them. Much of
it is fed every year, and we have no
definite information of its being in
furious. While clean straw is pre-
ferable to either rusty or smutty straw,
I would advise using the present crop
without fear of bad results

Unequal Weight.

The News has revived it's agitation
for city weighmaster. It is safe to
say that this matter of having city
scales does not meet with the approval
of most of the people of the city. It
is a scheme that has been tried in
various cities and has been discarded
for the simple reason that it is a
nuisance not only to the seller but to
the buyer.
In Winona the system is in vogue
but it has grown to apply only to
produce that is brought in from the
country to be sold, as a convenience
to the seller. It is an imputation upon
the honesty of the dealers in fuel in
this city to hold that they are giving
short weight, and if there are any
such in business here, it is safe to
assume that they would be equal to
fixing the weights of the city scales.
We do not believe that the added ex-
pense this new dream of the editor of
the News would be to the city would
be offset by any benefit that would &C
crue to the people of the city. If you
are convinced that you are being
robbed in weights, there are honest
dealers enough in the city to give you
an opportunity Of changing.

Gasoline Tank ExplOdeS.

An explosion of tank of gasoline
at the home of W. G. Alvin Monday
forenoon slightly burned Herman
Pfaender about the face, and Mrs.
Alvin and the maid servant, who
where standing nearby, barely escaped
injury. A gasoline stove with small
tank of gasoline stands in the kitchen
at the Alvin residence. Mrs. Alvin
and the servant were upstairs and
smelling smoke rushed down into the
kitchen. Flames were issuing from
the wooden box surrounding the
tank. Mrs. Alvin at once grasped the
tank and lifted it into a pail nearby.
At this juncture their milkman Herman
Pfaender appeared on the scene and
just as he was about to sieze the pail
the gas which had formed in the tank
exploded, blowing out the top.
The flames shot into the air and Mr.
Pfaender was burned slightly about
the face, but he soon had the pail and
tank in the open air where the ex-
plosive fluid was allowed to burn it.

WILL TURN MORE ROLLERS
New Ulm Roller Mill Completes
improvements.
Capacity Of Mill Increased More
Than Fifty Per Cent.
Will Add Oatmeal Machinery to
Cereal Mill Operations.

Early in the spring the management
of the New Ulm Roller mill outlined a
plan of Improvements for its mill that
was to embrace some radical changes,
and those changes have just become a
reality, for the mill with its alterations
will be finished and the wheels begin
to turn this week.
Where the old red mill stood by the
side of the right of way of the North
western, there now is an imposing five
story structure as much different from
the old mill as can be imagined. An
addition 22x57 feet, taking the place
OF the old shipping shed, rises full five
stories and covers the old part of the
mill adding one story to that, making
the building about square on the
ground and of more convenient shape
for the handling of machinery in the
production of flour.
Workmen on the addition will have
finished their labors before the end of
the week and there will then remain
only. the installationIof the new machin-
cry. Benz. Stockman, manager of the
mill, spent most of last week in the
cities looking after the new machinery
that is going into the plant. The mill,
however, will not be closed while this
work is going on, for the arrangement
in building is such that the old mill
can run up till the time of connecting
the shaft, and in this way the output of
flour will not be lessened in material.
A new 250-horse-power engine takes
the place of the smaller one that has
done good service for number of
years, and it is housed in new engine
room 21x3l feet. This engine will fur
nish, under the new arrangement, a
direct power, whereas under the old
system there was much loss of power
by reason of the improper construction
of the old mill
Aside from the improvements that
are going on in the -four mill the man
agement contemplates the installation
of machinery for the manufacture of
rolled oats, Or oatmeal, in connection
with its graham, cornmeal and buck
wheat products, in its cereal mill.
This branch of business is compare
lively new, as the cereal mill has only
been in operation for short time, but
it has proved that there is a market
for such goods and the mill has had a
good run of business.

CROSSING CAUSES WAR
Locomotive Guards Disputed Ter.
ritory Several Days.

The question of a crossing at the
point near the Eagle mill where the
side-tracks of the Northwestern and ST.
Louis railroads nearly touch was the
cause of war between the two roads
which waged for nearly three weeks
and was only brought to an amicable
settlement Sunday. The yard en-
ployees of both roads comprised the
opposing armies and a Northwestern
locomotive and several cars the engines
of war.
The St. Louis side track into the
mill yards ends but a foot or so from
the Northwestern track and the former
company, feeling cramped for room,
wished to extend its track across its
rivals rails for a distance of about
six rods. 1t asked permission of the
Northwestern to do this and the latter
sent a contract to the formers head
offices providing for protection of the
Northwestern from all damage suits
arising from accidents at the crossing.
To this the ST. Louis company refused
to agree and war was declared: the
latter declaring it's determination to
build the crossing, and it's rival firm in
its demand for a protecting contract.
To thwart any attempt on the part
of the st. Louis the Northwestern held
several cars on its side-trackiin readi-
ness to roll down onto the stretch of
track opposite the point of expected
attack. No hostile move was made,
but to strengthen its guard the North
western brought an engine onto the
scene of action and from last Wednes-
day until settlement was reached this
grim monitor guarded the disputed
way.
The contract agreeing to assume all
responsibility for accidents at the
crossing was signed by the St. Louis
officials Thursday but word to cease
hostilities was not received in New Ulm
until Sunday.

The game Saturday was one of the
preliminary games of the season and
is for the purpose of determining who
of the candidates for positions are eli

is little doubt but that Current will get
his place, but there is doubt of Cut
ting winning out as he is not up on the
rules of the game. The progress OF
the team will be watched with a great

the Saturday game was 1o7 to 0 in favor
of the university and Current is given
credit for making one touchdown.
