TESTING FLOUR AT BIG MILLS.
After Grinding Sample is Made Up

ut is surprising to note the elf
ference that exists between the varl-
Gus brands Of -four" said O. D. Hutch
inson, the representative OF one OF
the big mills in Minneapolis, Mimi.
1T all depends on how the -four is
milled and on the kind of wheat from
which it is made Flour made from
hard spring wheat will give from 20 TO
40 more loaves Of bread per barrel
than that made from the softer win
ter wheat 1t contains larger per-
centage of gluten and absorbs more
water The mills are exceedingly
careful about the kind of flour the
send out, and the testing department
is one Of the most important branches.
After the flour is ground comes the
crucial test A sample is taken and
made up into bread. We have four
bakings a day, and from 20 to 80
loaves are baked each time, each one

turned over to the associated chart

Sunday Funerals.

/ Minneapolis is to have no more
/ Sunday funerals after the first q
January. The ministers, the under
takers and the cemetery authorities
have said so and that ought to settle
it.
The Sunday funeral is entirely un-
necessary, say the undertakers and
the clergymen and the cemetery
authorities chorus a loud "Amenl''
1t is not their contention that one
can choose his own day for paving
the last great debt to nature, but if
t,eath happens to come Thursday

of having the interment Sunday.
That day NAV as well be made a

What would the suggested change
mean? For one thing, relief for the
clergyman, for whom the Sabbath
day is a,busv day at the best. For
another little rest for the under
taker and his assistants; for the
drivers, the workmen ia the stables
and the workmen in The cemeteries.
It is hard to discover any good
reason for abandoning the practice.
The men Who have to do with the
sacred Offices for the dead have a
light to their Sunday, or an approx
imaton thereto. and to deprive
them of it when there is not urgent
necessity is an injustice. Duluth

Juvenile Court Officers.

The last general assembly enacted a
new law providing for what is known
as a juvenile court, before whom all
cases Of children who are under the age
of sixteen years are to be tried for any
crime. The law may be good one for
large cities where the district court is
session all the time, but it looks like a
poor one for rural districts where court
Under the new law no Justice of the
peace or mayor has any jurisdiction to
try any one under sixteen years of age
for any crime, neither can the culprit
be confined in Jail while waiting for
trial. The Judge Of the district court is
the presiding officer before whom they
must be tried no matter what the
offense, and he can dispose of them as
he chooses except in cases where the
crime is punishable by Imprisonment
for life or death. Two probation officers
are appointed for each county to work
under the direction of the Judge, whose
duties shall be to look after all children
charged with public offenses, or those
who are neglected by their parents.
John Holden and J. L. Harvey have been
named as probation officers for this
county, and they are required to serve
without pay.
1t is related that Denver bride Of
three weeks the other day thrashed her
husband within an inch of his life, took
his money and went back to her mother.
The row was about wedding photo
graph of the couple. The groom said
he thought it perfect; The bride de-
clared it hideous. The groom persisted
in his opinion, whereupon the bride
ordered him upstairs to his room. He
went. She went with him and locked
the door on the inside. When she came
out he was lying senseless on the floor.
When you get up to the telephone it
is perfectly proper to get furious" be-
cause the person you want doesn't
answer. 1t is really the thing to do.
He is probably out under the shade tree
where, maybe, the operator would like
to be) enjoying (?) the hot day. Or per-
haps she is doing some kind of work
she doesn't want to leave when she
hears her bell ringing, thinking she can
call up later and find out who it was
that called. In either case you must
blame Central" because she has moth
ing to do but stay on the line and ring
and ring and ring for you. If she gets
weary with much ringing and tells you
she cannot get that number you must
be sure and say, "Well, ring again,
know they there" 1t would hardly be
just the thing to add please" either, it
might confuse the operator. In short,
discard your manners when talking over
the telephone. Courtesy and telephon-
ing have nothing whatever in common
and should not be allowed to come in
contact with one another.
