DR.. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain

interest in the members. He once
asked a certain senator with a good
deal Of solicitation if he was church
member. The senator was glad to be
able to say that he was. Two or three
days later, according to the story,
DR.. Hale required to the subject and
asked the name of the church. The
senator gave a name. Two or three
days later again DR.. Hale remarked
with regret that he had looked up that
church and that he was sorry to find
that it had been burned down twelve

GETS PARDON AS NEW YEARS GIFT
Army Deserter Claiming New UIm
as His home PardOned by
Gen. Greedy.

The st. Paul Dispatch Of Monday
evening contained the following:
Maj. Gen. Greedy while here last
week remitted the unexpired portion OF
the sentence of confinement of Loren
w. Chapman, general prisoner serv-
ing an eighteen months sentence at
Fort Smelling for desertion. Chap
man and his brother, James d. Chap
man, were residents of New Ulm,
Mimi. They enlisted together several
years ago and were assigned to the
engineer corps stationed at the West
Point military academy. They soon
tired of military life and longed for
their old home in Minnesota. They
finally decided to desert, and made
their way to their home in New Ulm.
Their friends and relatives advised
them to surrender to the military au-
thorities and stand trial in order that
they might be relieved of the cloud
which would hang over them con-
stantly.
This they did, and a year ago last
month they surrendered to the military
authorities at Smelling. They were
tried by a general court martial, and
each given eighteen months imprison-
ment at hard labor and a forfeiture of
all pay and allowances. Their con-
duct during their confinement has been
such that the post commander recon-
mended their pardon to the department
commander. The other brother, James
D. Chapman, secured his pardon sew
eral weeks ago, and together they will
spend their New Years with relatives
and friends at their old home.

ment. This naturally enables the mill
to produce a choice grade of flour and
to extend its sphere of operations.
The receipts of corn and oats in New
Clm are hardly sufficient-for local re-
quirement and the prices for the manu-
featured product are consequently
above shipping basis. Considerable
quantities of cheap feed, however,
have been ground and shipped. This
trade, says Mr.. Stockman, the local
manager, could be largely increased
if the grain was available at COMPETE
tive prices.
During the past two years the mill
company has made some effort to in
duce farmers in the neighoorhood to
grow buckwheat and has even supplied
seed on very liberal terms, but the wet
seasons have been unfavorable. The
company could easily afford to pay
liberal prices for this product to local
farmers, as the freight on carload
lohS IL Jill w lSOOAS1A IS f0Iy ll1SA.
During the past four months the GER
cal mill has been supplied with cleo
trio power from the main plant of the
New Ulm Roller Mill Co. and this ar
rangement has been most satisfactory.
In the summer months, when trade in
rye flour is dull, farmers can have
feed ground whether the mill is in full
operation or not. The electric power
can be started in few moments by
merely signaling over to the engine
room Of the big mill.
Next spring the company expects to
build an elevator especially for GER
calls, the trade having entirely OUT
grown the capacity Of the big mill ele-
vator for this grade Of grain stuff in
the busy time of the year.

MILLS PROSPEROUS YEAR
New Ulm Roller Mill Co. Reports
Fine Business.
Plant Employees 35 Men and Manu-,
features 100000 Barrels
of Flour.
New Milling Improvements Being
Added Constantly.
The Cereal Mill Has Also Done a
Flourishing Business.
Rye Flour Being Sold in Carload
Lots All Over the Country.

The New Ulm Roller Mill Co. has
enjoyed a prosperous year.
While it's plant is not as extensive
as that operated by the Eagle people,
it nevertheless reflects great credit up
on it's owners and in most any town of
this size would be considered a big in
stitutlon.
For instance to grind Al, 433 bushels
of wheat in a single year is not a
startling accomplishment when COM
pared with what some mills do, but
when compared with what most coun-
try mills do the figures look awful big.
These AT, 433 bushels of wheat repre-
sent an output of nearly 100, 600 barrels
of flour and nearly 4 1000 tons Of feed.
Thirty-fve men were given employ
ment the year around and the con-
sumption of coal was approximately
1850 tons. Other interesting statistics
might be given, but these in brief af-
ford the public an idea of what the
New Ulm Roller Mill Co. is doing for
the community.
Mr.. Stockman, the manager, was
interviewed by the Review yesterday
and said that, while the past year has
not been the most favorable for spring
wheat mills, the output of the New Ului
Roller Mill Co.'s plant totalled about
the same as for the year 1905.
During the year the company made
some improvements in the mill, adding
to the engine room and also installing
second engine to supply power for
the feed and cereal mill, which belongs
to the company and is operated block
away from the big mill.
A Great Western sitter of sufficient
capacity to handle half the flour made
in the mill is being put in at the
present time. This machine has some
new features OF apparently great adj
vantage in milling, and if it proves a
success the company will use another
of the same size, thus increasing the
II < !
possible output of the mill.
The New Ulm Roller Co. also, owns
cereal mill, located just north of the
company's main plant.
The output of this plant, in all pro-
ducts, has shown a very satisfactory
increase during the year. The rye
mill has been in steady operation since
August lst and has sufficient orders
on hand TO insure against any shut
down during the months of January
and February. Outside of Minneapolis
there are very few mills in Minnesota
grinding rye exclusively and the New
Ulm institution was originally in
tended mainly to supply the trade in
the Immediate vicinity and west of New
Ulm with small quantities. Today the
concern isl shipping carload lots to
ST. Louis, New York, Boston and
even to. Pennsylvania, where rye is
grown extensively.
AS a direct result OF the opening q
this plant IN New Ulm, farmers have
paid more attention to the growing q
rye and the qualiGy Of the grain raised
3hereahouts shows a marked improve.

HENRY EssiG IS SERIOUSLY HURT
Bodyf Crushed Between Thrashine
Engine and Tender.

Henry Essig, former Milford farm
er who now lives near Springfield. was
seriously injured in an accident last
Thursday afternoon. Editor MAILER
of the Springfield Advance has kindly
favored the Review with the following
particulars:
Essig was moving his threshing rig
to Fred Wellner's farm, having but
two jobs to finish before housing his
outfit for the season. His route to the
Wellner place included steep hill
and twas while descending this hill
that the accident happened. When
only part way down the hill the steer
ing gear broke. Essig reversed the
engine Immediately, but the hill was
so slippery that the precaution was of
no avail. In less time than it takes to
write it, the whole outfit, engine, ten
der and all, had plunged down the hill
and slid off into a ditch. Essig at
tempted to jump out of harms way
when he discovered that he had no
control over the engine, but was too
late.
The tender was forced up against
the rear of the engine and Mr.. Essig
securely pinioned between them. It
took over twenty minutes before the
crew could extricate him. When final
ly released, he was Immediately taken
to his home three miles away. Medical
aid was summoned from Springfield
and when the physicians arrived they
pronounced his injuries serious. His
stomach in particular was badly
crushed and twill be sometime before
he RECEIVERS, if at all.
An interesting point of law is in
volved in an action that has been in
stituted by 81. L. Carpenter, a farmer
living near Elysian, against Jas.
Warner, the owner Of thrashing ma
chine. Carpenter has started the suit
to determine the liability of thrasher-
men, and it is attr acting great atten-
ton. The defendant, who operated a
thrashing rig last fall. did not take
his machine to the farm of Carpenter,
as expected by the latter, and the lat
ter states in his complaint that there
had been an understanding that War
ner was to do the thrashing at his
place. As a result of his alleged fail
ure to fulfill the terms of his alleged
agreement there was a delay in getting
another machine, and the plaintiff
claims loss of S245, for which he
asks Judgment. A verbal agreement
is usually the only contract between
thrasher and farmer, and the point
that has been raised will beof particu-
lar interest to the former class.

MONEY WAITING FOR MISSING MAN
Fortune Left to Fred Appleton Who
Left Sleepy Eye Recently.

An Inheritance Of $4,000 awaits
Fred Appleton, until a few months ago
resident of Sleepy Eye. It comes to
him through the death Of a wealthy
uncle in Sweden and will be paid over
to him as soon as he appears and
proves his title.
All of last summer Appleton was en-
ployed by Hanson &. Arveson of
Sleepy Eye, but left short time ago,
and no word of him has since been

Woodman lodge, and it's officers have
received word from the Swedish au-
thorities of the legacy left him. They
will make an effort to find and apprise
him of his good fortune.

Baltimore. Nov. 2s.--Fully 900 dels- gates were in attendauce at the Na- tionaI Drainage Commission when it assembled in Mccoy Hall. Johns Hop- kins University, for the second day's session today. Besides addresses on the subject of swamp land reclamation, the mosquito question was dealt with
 Clifford Pinchot, United states Chief Forester, dwelt on the / relation of
 draining and the protection of ths lowlands of the South Atlantic States to the protection of the headwatsfs of the streams of the Appalachian region, He cited the immediate and urgent tneed of the protection of the headquar- ters of the streams which affect that regien of the country. He called parv tic1iiar attention to the falling off in the rice culture industry in the Car- -o1inas which he declared is due imme- diatsly to floods brought about by de- forestaticn In the Appalachian Noun. tains. Likewise he pointed out how tn ese floods sweep ever the loglAnds adjoining the rivers ip such volume that no dike or Ieve can withstand them and cover fertile plantations with deposit of silt brought from above.
 O. J. Blanchard, statistician of the U. g. Rsclasnation Service. declared that this meeting will focus the -atten- tioB of the country upon a problem, the successful solution of which. he contended. means far more to our na- tionai welfare than the constructiou of the Panams Canal or the subjugation of the great <rAmerican desert. The addition of which million acres of aui- tivatable land to farm area are an iu- crease of nearly 20 per cent. in the total improved area of the farms Of the country. The successful drainage of these lands. he continued, would mean the addition to the crop producing area of the United States of a strip of land forfy-fiye miles wide extending from Baltimore to San Francisco4 It would provide homes for 100000 families On farms Of forty acres each.
 Assuming that the reclaimed areas would have the same relative value drainage would add s<,ooo.o0o to the taxable propsrty of the people.
