Due to the Slump in The Grain Bust
ness.
Railroads of the Country are
Unable to Handle Great
Fall Business.

At Washburn as we'll as at
other shipping points it has bee n
noticed that the fall gram bust
ness has not been as brisk as it
was year ago and the eau e
seems to be with the railroads
OF the country is not being able
to furnish cars owing to the great
volume of other business at this
time of theyear. The grain crop,
is the largest in the history of
the country and every availa BILE
car is being pressed into service
by the railroads to take care of
the movement of the crops to
the east but the supply seems to
be insufficient. Since last year
the shipment of coal from the
east to the northwest has been
greatly increased as also has the
ordinary freight business all
over the country. So great has
this business become that the
railroads are unable to furnish
the usual amount of cars for the
carrying of grain just at this
time of the year.
About fifty cars of grain are
now being received a day at the
local elevator while a year ago
the amount was almost doubled
and the elevator was compelled
to run night and day during the
latter part of the season. The
business will no doubt pick up
considerable during the next few
weeks but it is hardly possible
tnao they will do the business
that was done last fall.

Experimental Farms Great Ad-
vertiSement,

Supt. Delwiche, of the state ex-

nished truth about what can be pro-
duced by scientific methods Of cult

There is no question but what Mr..
Delwiche's story of his first years

The Game Laws.

A. Vented. Superior merchant
recently published an article on
careless hunting, IN the Eveninp g
Telegram of this city. 1t is very
much to the point, and part of it is
quoted below:
ION the bottom of column four.
page six of last evenings paper, we
read that at Chisholm. MIMI, lust
north of Duluth. a hunter last Satur-
day fired into the moving bushes at
what he supposed vas bear. and
instantly killed Charles Sandquist.
On the opposite page of the same
paper. we read that another hunter
shot into the moving bushes, to see
what was there, pres uming it was a
deer, and shot his friend.
"Why is it that some hunters, ap-
parently perfectly sane in other re-
spects, and who would rather buy
the BARNARD fowl in the market
than cut off it's head, will send a
charge Of shot or rifle ball into the
brush to see what is moving the
bushes.
"A MURDER of these moving-bush-
shooters are now preparing for the
hunting campaign that opens in
about month, and a cores bonding
number of hunters are making pre-
parations TO be out of the woods
when the brush shooters start in.
The hunter can come out Of the
woods, but what protection has the
settler who is clearing his land, and
is thereby compelled to be in the
underbrush at this season of the
year? The moving-brush shooter
gets half dozen more or less of
OF these settlers every deer season.
when. and what action is going
to be taken to protect human beings
that may be in the woods in hunt.
ing season?
Action should be taken by the
next legislature, The twenty day
deer hunting season is the cause Of
most of the hunting accidents. 1t
takes all the hunters to the woods
at one time. The present law is
favorable to the sportsman who lives
a long way from the game, and he
wants it kept till he comes. Even
the farmer whose crops are food for
the deer the year around is not
allowed to kill "his own" deer. No
protection for the deer would be
better that no protection for the
people of the state, and the latter
the law does not provide for.
A half dozen game preserves 10
the state, consisting of two or three
sections of timber land each, would
prove much more satisfactory than
the present conditions. Hunting
could then be allowed outside the
preserves for d long season, say
from September l to March /, and
one or two deputy game wardens
could protect the game within each
of the preserves the year around.

LIKE MILESTONE AS A suNkER
Weighty Port Receipts Carrying The
Price Down.

AS thousands of cotton bales crowd
the ports every day the price of the
staple is forced lower and lower
Yesterday the downward course was
continued still. In the Americas mar
ket the price of the very best grades
fell to ten cents, and it required some
thing fancy to bring it. Last Wednes-
day fine cotton sold here at IL cents,
and the decline within five days has
been one cent a pound or So per bale.
Even here in this immediate section
the fields in many Localities are still
fairly white with open cotton, and the
season" will doubtless extend up to
the holidays before all the bales made
are marketed. AT present prices-the
dime-farmers are sidestepping the
market and will hold their bales for an
expected rally later in the season.
Many wagons filled with sable cotton
pickers rolled out of Americas yester
day, and this week there will be some
thing doing down on the old farm.

FINEST PLAY OF SEASON HERE
VIII Be "Zaza' To Be Seen On
Thursday Night

Among Americue play-goers greatest
interest centers in the presentation of
''Zaza'' on Thursday evening at the
opera house. The story is as simple
in its elements as any in the first or
second readers of our schooldays, but
so finely constructed, with such human
characterizations, such mastery tech
nique, such powerful situations, and
dramatic finish! 1t is the best play
that has come out of France since
The Two Orphans.' That is why
folk go again and again to see it. 1t
appeals to the heart. Zazas story has
been that of many millions lOf women
who loved, to find their love betrayed.
Miss Mabel Montgomery, who will be
seen as Zaza, is the ideal Zaza, in looks
and temperament. She will be sup
ported by fine company.

PLUGGING THE BIRDS ALREADY
Hunters Not Waiting for Season to
Open,

While the partridge shooting season
does not open until Thursday next,
Nov. LIST, it is said that hunters are
busy already and killing the birds in
large numbers. This is in violation of
the state game laws, but the laws seem
to be little respected in some localities.
The real hunters, the sportsmen, will
not shoot before Thursday. From all
accounts the quail will be found in pro-
fusion lhis season, and guns and dogs
are being carefully looked after with a
view to enjoying the pleasures of the
field as soon as the season opens.
