The State Fair.

Profits of the state fair of this year
were S25, 900 larger than has been sup
posed. Early estimates placed the
proceeds at $4,000, but when the
board got together last week for its
first meeting since the close of the
fair it was found that the amount
would be within $1,000, one way or
the other, of $50 900, and the indica-
tions are that it will be more rather
than less. The expenses of the fair
were greatly increased this year and
since the attendance was not as large
was expected it was feared that the
profit would be greatly reduced but
the sources of revenue were more nu-
merous than formerly and that did
much to make up the discrepancy al
though the receipts were not as large
as last year.

Preserving Receipt.
II. u /. w HIIE,
City Clerk. 81

This is one dainty housewives re-
ceipt for preserving husband: Sc
lect with care; the very young and
green varieties take longer to prepare,
but are often excellent when done;
those too crusty take long time to
cook tender. One neither hard nor
yet very soft will give best satisfac-
ton.
Do not keep in pickle, nor In hot
water, for even a little while, as this
toughens the fibre, retards the cook
ing and often spoils the result. Never
prick to test for tenderness; this
leaves mark, and they are never so
smooth afterward.
Even the poorer varieties may be
made sweet and tender by the follow
ing method: Wrap in mantle OF
charity and keep warm over steady
fire of loving domestic deyotion; gar.
nish with patience, well sweetened
with smiles, and favored with kisses
to taste. Serve with peaches and
cream. When thus prepared they
will keep for years.

Prosperous Conditions of
the Concern.

The directors of the United States
Steel corporation week ago declared
the regular quarterly dividend of Il
per cent on preferred stock and of
one per cent on the common.
The earnings for the three months
ending Sept. 80 were S43,3O4, 2S5, an
increase of S5,676,345 as compared
with the same quarter last year. Un-
filled orders on hand Sept. l were

BURNSIDE
CONTESTS
Come up in the Land Office
Today.

The Nauha Brothers, David Kan.
gas, John Grym and several others
are in Duluth defending their claims
in the contests inaugurated against
them by several Duluth men.
All of the contested parties have
had an expert on the grounds who has
prepared maps of the lands, contain
ing improvements, careful measure
ments, etc. Besides, photographs of
the buildings, clearings and cultivated
portions have been taken and alto
gether the party has an excellent
bunch of evidence to produce against
the testimony of the other side.
The contested lands are all in the
Bnrntside district and the claims
have been held for many years. Some
of the claimants have resided on the
lands almost continuously since filing
and several fine farms show for the
work. The larger part of the contest
ed lands also contain some timber and
this is the incentive for the contest.
Considerable feeling has been Gre
ated here over the method employed
by the contestors in these cases. All
of the contested parties, it seems,
have been approached with PROPOSE
tions for cash payment to Withdraw
the contests and one of the party
claims he paid $780,, after which he
was not further molested. The whole
affair smacks of hold-up game.
Should this be the case, few
stringent methods judiciously ap-
piled might be beneficial to discon-
tinue the practice. At least, the cure
applied in Tower some years ago had
the desired effect.

GUN--FOOL.
The Combination Hard to
Beat.

AS the season for the killing Of deer
draws on apace there are being nu.
merous suggestions for those who 60
into the woods with guns. No use to
print them, says Ishpeming Iron Ore.
The fool who shoots at shadows and
noises would not be benefited by any
number of columns of advice. He is
so constituted that he cannot control
himself, being nervous fellow who
starts at the slightest sound, and who
shoots without knowing why. In
other words, if they have any brains
they will leave them at home when
they 60 into the woods. We know how
they act as we have been hunting with
them. They caunot control their
nerves when they watch for deer, per
NIT their imaginations to play all
sorts of pranks upon them, and thus
shoot without knowing what they are
aiming at. And the peculiar thing
about 1T is that these very fellows are
the most anxious of all to 60 into the
woods. There's no use trying to keep
them out. The law permits them
license the same as to sane hunters
and the clerks have no way Of know
ing them, examinations not being de-
manded. You take your chances
when you 60 into the woods with
these fellows or if you happen to be
hunting in their vicinity. Ifall others
would remain away, permitting them
to shoot one another, it might be
good thing, but we cannot hope for
such remedy for the evil. Space in
trying to educate them is wasted.
The fear of the law will be Of no avail,
and, what is worse, the law will drive
them from a man they shoot, they
fearing imprisonment under its pro-
visions. You may wear red caps, or
blue or green. That will not save
your skin if the nervous fellow holds
his rifle true. and it is wonderful how
we'll they shoot. They seldom get
deer but man they will nail every
time. They will all have automatic
rifles or guns loaded with buckshOt 80
they will be pretty apt to get you be-
fore they run out Of ammunition.
Better dig deep cellar and hunt
from that, trusting to chance to send
deer your way. You may get less
number of deer, but If you succeed In
escaping the fool hunter then you will
have done we'll, and have much to
boast of after the close of the season.

GOOD SHOWING
Second Report Shows Pros
porous Condition.

The Second monthly report of the
schools of District No. II, contains
some very interesting facts. There
were enrolled 1126 pupils, $50 boys and
566 girls, difference of only 6 pupils.
This difference is also found in the
High School with an enrolment of 36
boys and AZ girls. This leaves the
graded schools equally DIVIDED. 524
boys and 524 girls. 1t is interesting
to note that the High School new con-
tains almost as many boys as girls.
this gain in enrolment of boys is at
tributable to the interest taken by
the boys in the Commercial and Man
ual Training courses. Glasses in these
subjects are greatly oyercrowded and
it has been necessary to have two or
more divisions.in each of these classes.
There were five rooms that had an
average of over 90 per cent. They
were Mr.. G. G. Denning's and Miss
Esther Hawley's rooms at Winton,
Miss Selma Nelson's room in the Slet-
ten building, Miss G. II. Chisholm's
and Miss Addie Van Blarcom's rooms
in the Central School. There were
four rooms that had no cases of tardi-
ness for the month. Miss Josephine
Otrem's room at Winton, Miss Olive
Callaway's room at the Savoy School,
and Miss Van Blarcom's and Miss
Chisholm's room at Central School.
These are excellent records when it is
remembered that in room of 40
pupils there are al least 1900 chances
of being late arriving at school. Not
many adults in everyday life acquit
themselves as well. The rooms hav-
ing over SO per cent attendance and
no cases of hardness were the rooms
of Miss Chisholm and Miss Van Blair
com. This speaks we'll for those
rooms, as it is pretty safe to say that
the pupils are interested and en-
thusiastic. as is evidenced by the
large and prompt attendance.

mage had been decreased to GAPS. OOs

by about 400, 900 tons. Bookings are
now a t the rate of $4,000 tons per day.
We are exporting at the rate of about
/ 100000 tons per year, and at prices
substantially on a parity with domes-
tic prices.
"From information received, it is
believed the demand for our products
has during the last few years been
constantly increasing and that the
present necessities are very great.
prices have been well maintained.
The leading steel manufacturers are
in frequent consultation, though
under no agreement concerning their
business interests. 1t seems to be a
recognized fact that stability of prices
is to be desired by both the producer
and the consumer anG that extremely
high prices and extremely low prices
are both Objectionable.
"Since the company was organized,
in addition to payments Of dividends
and interest there has been provided
from earnings reserve for eXtin-
guishment of capital of $40, $50, 900
and there has been added to the assets
from the same source 1896 $50, 900,
which includes investments in addi-
tional fixed property of 12,S50,000;
additional fixed property represented
by securities created and held in treas
ury as saleable assets, $4S. 10000; 9TH
er assets on hand, S104, $4,000.
"The total assets of the Organiza-
tion Oct. /, 1907, amounted to 1881,
500, 900; cash in banks Icing $75,973,-
O0O."
The current liabilities, including
accrued taxes, accrued interest and
dividends for last quarter, he said,
were $50, 1877 200.
Mr.. Gary added: when the com
pany was organized ST Asidiary COM
panies had unsecured outstanding
notes and bills of $42,00 900. All of
these except ST ,047 900 ave been paid.
The latter amount repr sents deposits
of employees under sa ings account
arrangement.
Upon completion of lie new work
now under way the pr 4ctive capa-
city of the manufactures plants will
be materially increased. Up to Jan,
l, 1907, the average increase already
amounted to 44.33 per cent.
"There has been received and set
aside to date funds for the Gary plant
in Indiana amounting to sums of
of $40, 100000, of which SIS, 539, 900 has
already been expended, leaving on
hand for that purpose a balance of
$50, 461, 000."

THE GUARDIAN is making a
splendid offer to those who desire
to attend the L. D. S. Academy at
Thatcher during the coming win
ter. We will give a years tuition
to the Academy free to any one
sending US ten paid up yearly
subscriptions We will give six
months tuition free to any one
sending us six paid up yearly
subscriptions. Two half yearly
subscriptions will count the same
as one yearly subscription.
Young ladies and gentlemen in
this and surrounding counties can
thus work a day or two among
their friends and earn their years
tuition. If they only obtain six
subscriptions, that will pay their
tuition for the first half year.
During the Christmas holidays
they can doubtless 60 out and OBJ.
tain the other four. 1t will be a
very easy way to earn years
tuition.
