BATCH OF QUEER TRADES.
Among Them Are Fly and Flea Catch
ers, Lion Hunters and Human
Incubators.

A request was recently sent out by
an English paper for suggestions of
novel ways of earning money. Some
OF the replies have novelty enough
and to spare. Here are a few pro
tesslons" which we're proposed:
A professional flea catcher, Gus
todlan for safety pins, a collector Of
dried flies for hens food, purveyor
or fads to the leisure classes a lion
hunting agency for societys use, a
motor car library to call at out of
the way places with the newest books
maker up of minds, a grievance
abater, a manners teacher.
Evidently dried flies are in demand,
Tor the suggestion of a dried fly mer-
chant came from two quarters. AS
for the maker up of minds and an
equivalent of the motor car library,
they exist in New York at the pres
ent time.
SO also does the umbrella and wa
terproof exchange recommended by
another person Among the queer oc-
equations described as already fol.
lowed is that of artistically painting,
with harmless pigments, fictitious, If
scanty, hair on bald heads
"A man | know" says one answer,
makes his living out of funerals and
weddings. He attends funeral, gets
list of the wreaths from the under
taker Con reciprocal terms) takes
shorthand note of the minister's ad-
dress, draws up souvenir report of
the whole thing, and offers it to the
survivors.
"Bereayed people are an easy prey
Not infrequently he receives encour-
agement also from the printer or typ
list If he can persuade them to have
1t put in type.
His tactics are similar in regard
to weddings; but there, as he suffers
severely from the competition of the
newspapers, his great source of profit
Is acting as agent for the loan of
wedding presents. 1t is said that at
the second wedding of well-known
politician at Birmingham the present
were valued at 100000, and two
thirds of them were hired Commits
sion on $4,000 worth of business Is
not to be despised"
Another case is that of a busy
farmers wife in Australia who had
the misfortune to nave a paralytic
son who was bed ridden She was
notable manager, and, considering
the great cost of the invalid and the
loss Of his services on the farm she
persuaded him to allow clutches of
eggs to be placed with proper precau-
tions in the bed, that the equal and
continual warmth might hatch them.
This was accordingly done, and the
paralyzed youth was as proud of the
broods as possible and thoroughly
earned his living, besides gaining an
interest in his life.

The nomination of A. L. Cole for governor

most friendly pre-convention contests ever
waged in Minnesota. At no time in the fight
has there been any bitterness between the can

Banker Sargent Likes Red Wing.
CT. Sargent who was elected cashier
of the Goodhue County bank, has
taken up the duties of his new office.
Mr.. Sargent is most favorably i'm
pressed with Red Wing and has great
faith in the development of the city.
This is one of the reasons he decided
to accept the offer made him by the
Goodhue County National Bank. Mr..
Sargent says that the financial insti-
tutions of Red Wing are recognized in
other places for their stability and con,
servatism, which elements are not al
ways found in banking institutions, to-
gether with that progressiveness char
acteristic of Red Wing banks. The
people of Red Wing will find Mr..
Sargent most agreeable and desirable
citizen and we believe that he willlearn
by experience that he has not over
estimated the people with whom he
has cast his lot.-Red Wing Republi-

Drought Will Conle,Again.

Early in the seventies there was
big rush for western Kansas and east
ern Colorado. But. the dry seasons
that followed started an exodus east
ward and the trail was strewn with
busted ones. Again, early in the eight
les was another stampede to those west
ern lands owing to the previous few
years of copious rains. New towns
flourished and the country doomed:
But the drought came and the boom
again exploded. And now history is
repeating ITSELF -Winnebago Free
Press.
History repeats itself. Land that is
now being sold in western Kansas, Me-
braska, eastern Colorado and Wyoming
at $5 to $40 per acre few years ago
could not have been sold for fifty cents.
Those times will come again. Settlers
going there now will be obliged to leave
unless they have sufficient money to
own large tracts of land for grazing
purposes, and it will take ten acres to
keep enc steer.
That has been the history of Kansas,
of Colorado and of the Dakotas since
their development by the white men.
The Indians have saying "Six years
plenty for ponies to eat, six years go
away and get feed for ponies" The
rain fall for the past few years has been
excessive, but as sure as the years
come, the seasons of drought will again
come when settlers will be unable to
raise any crops, and they will be un-
able to sell land at anyprice, above that
OF it's value for ranch purposes. Fair
