Options itasCa County Poor Farm.

Options jtasCa County Poor Farm.
W. c. Gilbert, of Duluth, has been
granted an option extending to Jan.
nary 1st, 1907, on the Itasca county
poor farm near Grand Rapids, at a
stipulated price of $4,000, and will
at once enter upon and explore the
land for iron
Considerab bic activity in exploring
is reported from the west end, and
a number of drills are at present
working in the immediate vicinity
Of the Rapids. That the land en-
braced in the poor farm contains
valuable deposits of ore is the opin-
ion of many mining men. = Some
three years ago B. c. Fiunegan and
others had an option on the land
and did an amount of exploratory
work thereon, but not enough to
determine it's value.

1t is surprising what progress is
being made in these days of enter
prise and activity. The latest is an
innovation in kitchen ranges, shown
at the store of Henry Hughes & Co.
The top is made of malleable iron,
which differs from ordinary gray
iron in the fact that in its manufac.
ture-it is subjected to a heat of 1900
degrees and is then stamped into
shape by a 10000 pound hammer.
Naturally, under such heroic treat
ment any flaws are discovered and
all inferior material is rejected. The
name of these ranges is the "Mon-
arch" Hughes l. Co. will exhibit
these ranges next week, and say
the good housewives of our COM
mupity should avail themselves of
this opportunity to sample the de-
licious biscuits and coffee made on
the Monarch, and to examine it's in
teresting points of advantage.
