Sheep Raising in AustraIIa.

The greatest industry of Australia is
sheep raising, mainly for the sake of
the wool. but also in part, of course,
for the meat. Australia now ranks
second among the great sheep-raising
countries, Argentina being first with
92,0O0.000 sheep. Australia econd with
72.000,000, and Russia third with To-
100000. Only n few years ago Aus
iralia was first. possessing no less
than 06.260.000 head of sheep. That
was in 1891. Prolonged droughts were
iAe cause of the destruction OF many
millions of Australian sheep, but since
1902 there has been an annual gain.
Yet these sheep were not indigenous
to Australia. They were first intro
duced in 1897, being of the Spanish
merino species.

PENSION TO POOR PARENTS.
Ohio Official Proposes New Method
of Preventing Child Labor.

Columbus. O.-State Shop Inspector
Morgan in his annual report submit
ted TO the governor makes the novel
proposition that the state of Ohio set
aside a fund to be devoted to paying
parents in poor circumstances who
are now compelled to let their young
children work in factories, to enable
them to take the children from the
factories and put them in school.
Gov. Harris is inclined to look on
the proposal with favor and may
recommend law to the legislature
covering the matter.
Mr.. Morgan says that Ohio leads
all the states in child labor legisla-
ton. but he is openly opposed to CIV
ing employers discretion to employ
children where parents need their
wages. Instead he suggests school
pension law by which the parents
may be paid an equivalent sum out of
the public treasury and the child sent

ATTEMPTED SUiGiDF
Aged and Despondent Sherman Farmer
Makes Two Attempts.
Morton Enterprise.

MOIlOH
Adolph Knuepple, a well-known
and wealthy farmer living three
miles south Of this village, made un-
successful attempts to take his life
Wednesday forenoon Mr. Knuep-
pie has been for several years in
respondent mood, altho the fam
lily, consisting of his wife and two
grown-up sons, had noticed nothing
alarming in his appearance, even on
the day of the tragedy. He made a
desperate attempt to hang himself
early in the morning, but thru the
timely arrival of his sons he was cut
down and in a half dazed condition
gave promise of desisting further
attempt on his life. Some two hours
later the boys were dumfounded on
returning to the house to find their
father sitting in chair, bloody
razor in his hand and an ugly wound
on the left side of his neck, the floor
besmeared with blood presenting a
sickening sight. DR.. Penhall was
telephoned for and at once dressed
the wound. How the man ever
escaped a mortal wound is mys-
terry, and the chances for recovery
are small. He is we'll to do and no
cause can be given for his rash act,
altho his wife was an inmate Of the
insane asylum several years ago,
and this may have preyed on his
mind.
At last reports, Mr.. Knuepple
was likely to recover.

APPEAL TO PARENTS.

Fathers and mothers of Redwood
county's boys and girls: You have
been informed ere this that the Red
wood county fair association is offer
ing a large number of cash prizes to
the pupils of our schools, who will
raise, and exhibit at the fair, vari-
Gus agricultural products. You are
hereby requested to give your boys
and girls every encouragement along
this line.
Some of the products of this con-
test are included in the list for which
the Farmers Club of Minnesota offer
prizes. Thus we wish to bring this
contest into conformity with the reg
ulations of the Farmers Club, so
that the three highest prize winners
for each respective product may be
eligible to the state contest to be
in st. Paul in December.
At this time we call your atten-
ton to three products with which we
wish to enter the state contest, name
ly: potatoes, onions, and corn. As
planting time is near at hand, it is
opportune for you to reserve suita-
BILE ground for your boy to raise
these products. For the corn con-
test the boy must cultivate at least
one-quarter of an acre of land. Ev-
cry boy or girl entering this contest
should write to the county superin-
tendent for circular giving full di-
rections for the selection of seed,
preparation of soil, etc.
The response of the pupils thus
far has been very gratifying to the
promoters of the scheme. However.
that this meritorious enterprise may
meet with deserving success, we
plead for the hearty cooperation of
the parents.

tion and visitors for short speeches,
beginning with III. M. Hitchcock,
who was followed by E. A. Pease,

Last but not least, R. E. Bur-
bridge, to whose zeal and foresight
a large share of the credit for the
success of the association work thru
out the state is ascribed, gave the
business men heart-to-heart talk
on the Importance Of friendliness
and courtesy in dealing with their
patrons. He made the point that
no travelling man could hold his Job
who solicited trade with the same
gruffness and want Of tact and
friendliness shown by many dealers
and their statesmen. The catalogue
houses set a good example in this
respect, in their profession Of inter-
est in their dear friends, and in the
pains taken to explain all the good
points about their goods. Let the
home dealer be as painstaking and
cordial, and let him be honest to his
customer instead of INSCRIPTIONS
after the manner of the catalogue
man, and he will win out.
The morning following the conven-
ton. twenty five or thirty Of the
merchants remaining got together at
the Francois & Schmahl store and
presented President Chas. A. Lusch-

handsome cut glass water pitcher

made by G. I. Howard in one Of his
sparkling little speeches, voicing the
appreciation of the association for
their effective work for the organiza-
ton.
At this gathering announcement
was made that Lamherton would en-

from what we know of the business
men OF that town, Lamberton will
do the entertaining properly. The
success OF this meeting owes much
to the Lamberton delegation, and
Redwood Falls will not be found
wanting when the delegation is made
