tome Varicle, the protector Of the in.
ternational polar. institute, which pro.
posed to send party Of the best-known
" "Mushers" of the Klondike country on

Seattle today from Dawson.
Dr.. Variele; said he proposed to leave
Seattle next July, if the expedition
could be organized by that time, and
proceed by Boat to the most northeast
erly point of Grant Land, where a ba-
sis, of supplies or post Of departure
would be established, to await. the most
favorable time for the dash to the nm
explored country. DR.. Varicle says if
the expedition is a success, the party
will pass entirely across the explored
country, after taking observations and
securing information Of a scientific ma

The Farmers's Call, Quincy. III.
AS we rode thru northwestern Min

driven around in buggies, the thought
frequently came to us that there is no

and Kittson counties, for example. with
what they were in westcentraf Illinois
when the father of the writer came to
that state fifty years ago. We found
no place in northern Minnesota where
apparently every farmer did not have a
buggy and good. stylish team to at
tach to it. Everywhere we found on
the HPeI FARMS aer Sysg su5y
farms just being made from the wild
land. We did. not see 2 per cent Of
the farm machinery given any shelter
of any kind. It is certainly a rich soil
and it is certainly profitable farming
that will stand such expenses for farm
machinery allowed to rot and rust with
out hinder and yet will permit farmers
to pay for land out Of which they make
good farms, and have for their enjoy
ment such things as buggies and or
gans.
The useful clovers and grasses here
grow most luxuriantly, and it certainly
will not be difficult to provide dairy
farm with an abundance of pure, cool
water and also of ice. We believe
that before twenty-five years southern
Minnesota, which has achieved such
creditable results and notable victories
in da1ry1ng, VIII be Pushed closely, IL
indeed, it is not surpassed in dairying
by the northern half Of the state.

STATE LANDS
PUT ON SALE
$50. 900 Acres of Minnesota s
Land Offered to the Public
On Easy Terms.

Minnesota, the bread -and-butter
;ate, has about 100000 acres Of land
-,hich it offers from time to time at
ublic sale to actual settlers. These
.nds are offered on very exceptional
srms Of payment, and this, together
ith the location and character Of the

In October and November Of the
resent year the state offers 100000
,res of these lands, and in April, 1906,
10000 acres. These sales furnish
,lendid opportunity for men Of small
cans to secure homes, and it was be-
eyed by the state land commissioner

10 actual farming classes, could be

But Loss Of Life ls AVerted In New

New Worthwhile the Delaware.
Lackawanna & Western ferry boat
Mont Clair was crowded from end to
end on a trip from the foot of Christie
pher street to Hob0ken. IRE burst from
beneath the middle of the inner row
OF seats in the. mems cabin on the star
board side. So sudden was the out
burst of flames that those sitting on
the seats had narrow escapes from
being burned.
Shouts of fire sent the passengers
in rush to the open ends of the boat,
men almost pushing one another into
the water. The panic spread to the
women's cabin, which was also
crowded. there being about 1000 pas
.sengers on the boat.
The Mont Clair was in midstream.
AS quickly as they could make their
way to the fire e&tinguishers. the deck
hands took them down and played on
the fire. which quickly became only a
smudge Of sitting smoke. The boat
was driven with all speed. with
whistle shrieking. to the Hoboken
slip. The passengers rushed ashore,
and the FIRE department put out what
remained Of the blaze.
