Fire This Morning..

This morning a few minutes b 3fOre S
O'Clock, our citizens were aroused by
an alarm OF fire, which was sent ia from
box 10. A tremendous cloud OF smoke
was emanating from the scene, and in @
few minutes time the streets were full
Of people, and it WAS soon discovered
that the store occupied by Messrs. C. D,
Taylor & Co., on Walnut street, was
the scene of conflagration.
The fire department responded
promptly and together with other
willing hands went to work in dead
earnest, and soon had the mad
flames under control, but not until
much damage had been lone to the
building and stock Of goods. The fire
originated on the second floor Of the
building and is thought to have been
caused by rats. By heroic work the
flames were confined to the second
story.
The building is badly damaged and
the stock of goods is almost ruined
by fire and water. The building be-
longs to Mr.. L. D. Giddens, who esti-
mates the damage at between $500 and
81 1000. The damage to the stock OF
goods is something like 1900 and is
partially covered by insurance.
In this connection will state that Mr..
Taylor desires us to extend the sincere
thanks Of the firm to the brave fire
men and all others, who worked SO
faithfully and he~roieally to save their
property from DISTINCTION.

Flax Irvine Com
pany, of ST. Paul, is Organ
ICED to Carry on New
Industry-MIll Employ
1000 People.

H. L. Daniels, formerly of
Redwood Fails, now represent
tive of the International Har-
vester company, whose general
offices are in Chicago, recently
visited St. Paul, and while in
that city gave out the follow
ing interview to the Pioneer
Press:
The international Flax
Irvine company was organized
under the laws of the state of
Minnesota for the purpose of
engaging in the manufacture
of binder Irvine from home
grown flax. Some of the stock
holders of the International
Harvester company organized
and own the stock of the In
ternational Flax Irvine com
pany, although the latter cor
porationis entirely independent
and in no way directly connee
ted with any other firm, corpo-
ration or company. The flax
Irvine company has acquired
the property of the Minnie
Harvester Company, which
was originally known as the
Walter A. Wood Harvester
Company, and is remodeling it
and installing the machinery
necessary to carry on the bust
ness of manufacturing binder
Irvine from flax.
For several years the Inter
national Harvester Company
and some of it's predecessors
have been making exhaustive
and expensive experiments
looking toward the production
of a satisfactory binder Irvine
which could be produced from
material that would be less ex-
pensive than what are known
as hard fibers, principally ma
Mia and sisal, which, since the
advent of Irvine binders have
been drawn upon almost ex-

and increase trade in twir e
binders in countries and local
ties where the high rice Of
Irvine has been an impeachment
to their sale.
TO HAVE OTHER PLANTS.
alt is the intention of this
company, as rapidly as cirCum-
stances will permit, TO extend
the manufacture and sale of
flax Irvine to different parts of
the United States where a good
quality of flax for the purpose
can be obtained. The product
of the flax Irvine plant will, for
the year 1906 at least. be sold
by the International Harvester
Company of America. Whe-
Their this method of marketing
the product will be continued
indefinitely, has not yet been
decided.
Part of the machinery is
now in ST. Paul and is being
erected by large force Of com
petent workmen. The remain
der of the machinery is on the
way and will be installed in
the near future. When the mill
is in full operation at least
LOCO employees will be requir
ed. OF this number quite a
percentage will be women, who
always have been found super
ior as spinners.
"The material on hand will
produce from six million to
seven million pounds of Irvine,
all of which will be manufac-
tured before the harvest of
1906.

clusively for Irvine. The pro-
duction of these hard fbers
has been limited by circun-
stances and conditions, while
the increased consumption has
created a demand which has
resulted in a marked increase
in price.
MEANS CHEAP TWINE.
alt has long been the hope
and desire of manufacturers of
harvesting machines that some
substitute would be found
would produce a satisfactory
article of Irvine at reduced cost.
This hope has been realized by
the invention of special mach
inery which produces from ma
tive grown flax a Irvine which
in working qualities equals
any ever used, and which can
be produced at a cost consider
ably below the present price of
Irvine made from hard fibers.
The development of this in
dustry will give the farmers of
Minnesota ana ajoining atates
a stable market for a crop
which heretofore has been gi-
ven slight consideration. 1t
will save farmers a large a
mount of money through their
ability to secure Irvine at lower
prices. 1t will have a marked
influence in reducing the price
of the hard fiber, which will be
advantageous to every farmer
and other consumer of Irvine
and cordage. It will prove an
advantage to the manufacture
ers and dealers in binder Irvine
in that less capital will be re-
quired to handle the necessary
quantity to supply the trade. 1t
will also aid in the introduction

GREATEST VALUE in COFFEE
FOR YOUR MONEY!

You should always think when you buy
anything that the money is yours and you
have right to say what you will have for

Therefore when you buy coffee, whether
you pay 35 cents or 25 cents or Is cents, you
want the value of your money.

stands pre-eminently above other coffees
sold in the United States and in them you
