We Send tor our Goods

That is an expression we often
hear in the stores. We occasionally
ask why, and the answer is, "Be-
cause the goods can be had so much
cheaper by sending for them.' We
sometimes get into an argument on
that score, If we feel that it is safe
to start an argument. Most of the
time we keep STILL because we are
afraid to make bad matter worse.
We think that if we keep still and
act friendly with such parties we
may some time have chance to sell
them something. But here is where
l cut loose and say what / think and
have found to be true during these
fifteen years that I have been kicked
around in stores. You may think
that | am not good man for the
work when l tell you that during
this time l have worked in fifteen or
sixteen different stores But it is
true. and hard have I had to work
at that, until I came to Warren.

good stores we have here. 1t seems
that we work heart and hand in har-

DEATH OF GERMAN LEADER
EUGENE RICHTER, BISMARCK,S
OPPONENT, PASSES AWAY.
Radical Champion Was Thoroughly
Hated by Iron Chancellor .
Blind for a Year

Berlin, March l2.-Eugene Richter.
radical leader in the re1chstag since
it's foundation, Bismarck's old op-
ponent, and long time editor Of the
Freisinnige Zeitung, is dead.
Near the close of 1904 Richter sud-
denly retired from the Freisinnigo
Zeitung, which he founded, and at the
same time ceased to appear at the
reichstag. He was then in feeble
health and threatened with the loss of
his eyesight. Herr Richter, who was
enfeebled by an illness of two years,
and who had been blind for year,
died of heart failure. He was tbs
last notable parliamentary Journalistic
figure Of the formative period of the
empire. AS the leader of one of the
free-minded or radical parties he once
numbered Profs. Virchow and Momm-
sen among his lieutenants, but ow-
ing to the drift of political opinion ana
the growth of socialism the party sank
from 100000 votes and CT seats in
the reichstag in 1885 to p seats.
1t was surprise to his admirers
IudL I1ell I1lCuLSI 5 lIuu1SuS0 talents as
an organizer, parliamentary tactician,
popular agitator, debater and inexor-
able analyst of public questions had
not raised him to greater influence il
the country. Those who opposed Herr
Richter said he was man OF chimeras
and negations, seeking to attain for
Germany the British responsible min
lsterlal system while attacking every
constructive measure. He was Prince
Bismarck's passionate opponent The
great chancellor felt so sensitively
Herr Richter's attacks on him in the
reichstag that he wanted to fight
duel with his tornlentor, and finally
the chancellor always left the house
when Richter rose to speak. His op-
position to the naval bill OF 1893 caused
Prof. Mommsen, Herr Barth, editor
of the Nation, and about third of the
others OF the party to secede from the
moderate radical group.

Experiment Farmers Wanted

Mr.. James Frank is in receipt Of a
letter from the State Experiment
Station lat St. Paul asking him to
secure the consent of a few farmers
in this vicinity who are willing to
aid the state agricultural department.
in making tests Of macaroni wheat
as to its adaptabiIity to Minnesota
soil and climate. The letter states
that there is a growing demand for
macaroni seed wheat from Minnesota
farmers and the Experiment Station is
anxious to secure facts regarding the
value Of it to our farmers.
rThey want a few farmers who are
willing to grow a small patch of the
wheat each year for at least 3 years,
make report tv the station each
year OF the yield, etc., and send in
about half bushel for a milling test.
The station will furnish seed and
sacks, pay all freight charges, pay
market prices for the samples sent in
and pay five cents per bushels thresh
bill on all areas up the one acre.
Ii it appears that the seed furnish
ed does we'll there will be an oppor-
tunity for profit in furnishing seed
to neigbnors, otherwise the work
will be done for the good of the
cause and the returns of the soil.
. The seed furnished will be pure
and care should be taken to keep it
from mixing with other bread wheats,
otherwise the experiment will be
valueless.
MIR. Frank is going to undertake a
fertilizer test on behalf of the Sta
tion this coming season. The station
furnishes the fertilizer and he is to
stake OF tive quarter acre plots on
which to spread it in various GUAM
Titles aud keep a record of the result.
What the station wants to know is
whether it will pay to apply COM
mercial fertilizer to Minnesota farm
lands.
