siderable damage to the sugar beets at

Twelve out of seventeen members of
the Swedish academy voted for Prof.
Schuck to fill the vacancy in the
academy caused by the death of Prof.
Ljunggren. But King Oscar made use
Of his authority by declaring the cleo
ton null and void. The trouble with
Prof. Schuck is, that he is too liberal
to suit the mighty secretary Of the
academy, David af Wirsen. Even
Bishop Billing deserted the secretary
and voted with the twelve. King Os-
car has placed himself in an awkward
position by this veto, the people and
the press of Sweden being mainly in
the opposite camp. All parties are now
wondering what is to be done with the
vacancy.

Principal Events That Have Oc-
Cured in the Old Countries
Within a Week or So.

There is curious disturbance in the
stone dressing trade at Idefjord. The
stone-cutters employed by N. S. Beer
&, Co., on the Swedish side of the line,
quit work the last of June. Two
weeks later there was a regular "sym-
pathetic strike on the Norwegian side.
An English firm, the Brooks Granite
Company, hired the striking men,
while all other employers on both sides
of the line took sides with N. S. Beer
& Co. It is said that this action on
the part Of the English firm may lead
to complications which may injure the
Industry in general.
Dr. Georg Brandes, the great Danish
critic, has published some letters writ

FINLAND,

FINLAND is coming to the front in
the worlds politics. A few years ago
its constitution was taken away and
trampled upon by the car, who had
sworn to support it. Then came Rus
sia's tremendous humiliation at the
hands of the japanese. In the midst
of the endless disturbances within the
people Of Russia Finland remained
comparatively calm, and step by step
she recovered her lost liberties. Now
an entirely new chapter of the history
OF Finland seems to be on the point Of
being enacted. At this writing it is
known that a large number of the
members of the Russian duma, which
was dissolved by the car July %, have
gathered at Viborg for the purpose Of
holding sessions and doing all in it's
power to oppose the government. Fin
land was chosen by this body because
it is easy of access and as safe as any
place in the empire. 1t is not neces-
sary for the Finnish people to NEEDLE
with the duma; but the fate of this
body is apt to react upon the political
status Of Finland at any rate.

o. G.. GREGG HAS A METHOD TO
KILL WILD MUSTARD.
a Farmer Mysteriously Disappears
from White Bear-Poles Win
at Winona- Notes.
Wild Mustard.

Mlnneapolls-Wild mustard, the bug
Deaf VI the northwestern farmer, may
oe eradlcated from grain fields by
spraying the grain with a solution of
su4pnate OF iron. This is the an
i'ouncement of o. c. Gregg, superin-
tehdent OF the state farmers institu-
l1on' VINO has been conducting a series
VI experiments on his farm in Lynd,
Lyon county. Mr.. Gregg declares he
mas established absolutely that the
mustard pest can be killed by using
the sulphate of iron solution.
Farmers who have waged war
against the wild mustard will aprre-
clate the Importance of Mr.. Gregg's
discovery. Securing a foothold in a.
neid OF grain, the mustard spreads
rapidly, and unless entirely eradicated
before it goes to seed, it will. cover
the whole field within a few years.
DlHerent methods of exterminating the
pest nave been resorted to, but none
seems entirely satisfactory, as the
mustard seeds are tenacious and the
plant is prolific.
The method used by Mr.. Gregg in
Killing the mustard is simple. When
the grain was about four inches high
and the mustard plants had developed
three leaves, he sprayed his fields with
the sulphate of iron solution and
found that the mustard was destroyed
While the grain was not affected. The
only difficulty he has ecountered has
been in procuring machinery which
would do the work of spraying cheaply
and economically
Mr.. Gregg will discuss his expert
ments at the farmers Institutes to be
held next winter.

Disappeared.


White Bear-The police of two cities
are looking for August Buschank, who
has disappeared mysteriously from his
farm near here. He left his farm a
week ago, with considerable money in
his possession, and although a sys-
tematic search has been carried ON
since it was discovered that he had not
returned, not the slightest trace o:
him has been found.
The discovery of his lengthy absence
was made by a man who happened to
pass the farm. The horses and COWS
in the barn were making doleful noises
as though in great distress, and when
he went to investigate, he found that
they had not been fed Or watered for
several days, and that several of them
were in dying condition, owing prin-
cipally to want of water.
