with January 1st the Springsted Tele-
phone Company will inaugurate ten
cent toll to any town in the county, ex-
cept Kasson, over it's lines This is
great reduction from the price for
merly charged by the Northwestern,

Hutchinson independents: The Sauk
Center Herald figures out that it costs
more to protect each moose living in
Minnesota than it would to drain 100
acres of swamp land. and wonders
which is the most benefit to the welfare
OF the state. The game laws seem to
be getting rather expensive.
Jackson Republic: 1t would be in
teresting to know just how many days
Gov. johnson has spent in his office at
the new state capitol building since his
Inauguration, and what wonderful
things he. has accomplished for the
people of the state outside of ap-
pointing some very nice respectable.
democrats to fill the offices.
Granite Falls Tribune: Sav, young
farmer friends. or old too, for that mat
ter, better join the big class at the Agri.
cultural School, Jan. 9, and learn some
present. day methods in doing things.
You will be the better prepared to run
your farm by so doing. You do not
know so much about farming but that
you can be taught something new.
Lyle Tribune: Miss Matte DeRemer,
who has been member of the Lyle
Public School: faculty since O4 has re-
signed her position on account of i'll
health. During Miss DeRemer's stay
in Lyle, she has made many friends
both in and out of school and will be
missed by all. She was a good instruc-
tor and was we'll liked by her pupils.
Minneapolis Tribune: The ideal
Sabbath is day when employers and
employed cease from their labors; when
tired horses rest in their stalls; when
no lines of traffic but those positively
necessary are in use; when houses of
business and amusement are closed !;
when peace and quiet descend like a
benediction upon toiling country aud
hurrying town.
Iowa Register: To measure corn,
find number of cubic feet in crib, then
multiply by 9 and divide by 20, which
gives the amount in bushels. To deter
mine amount of shelled corn to be OBJ
tanned from crib of corn in ear, find
cubic feet of corn, divide by two and the
product will be the humber of bushels
of shelled corn, as two cubic feet of
corn, if sound and dry, will produce one
bushel of sheIled com.
Red Wing Republican: Just because
a thing is true is no reason why you
should take pains to spread it all around
town before breakfast. If it will be of
benefit to the community the sooner
you tell it the better. If it will iniure
anyone, and do no real good in the tell
| ing keep your lips sealed for time if
necessary. Truth needs to be handled
with common sense, like everything
felse.
Slayton Gazette: The village coun-
Gil at it's meeting last Monday night
laid on the table the application Of the
State Telephone Company to enter
this village and operate its long dis.
tance telephone here. A good many of
our people believe that this action was
unwise. At Hero9 Lake, it is said, the
rates to Minneapolis used to be IS cents
before the Tri-State entered that place.
Now the same service is only IS cents
