Milo B. Price, Phi. D., principal of
Pillsbury academy, Owatonna, de-
livered an able address to good
sized audience at the Congregational
church on Sunday evening. The
learned gentleman's address was in
the nature of advice to students who
are about to depart for college.
Representative Andrew Davis of Elk
River was in Princeton on business
Tuesday. Mr.. Davis says that the po-
tato yield in Sherburne and parts of

acre, and that the farmers are feeling
jubilant over the crop. ~ ~
The base ball game played at Red
Wing on Sunday between Princeton
Company G team and the nine of the
former place resulted in defeat
for the Princeton boys. A score of 6
was made by the Red Wings and l by
the Princetons. Our boys attribute
their defeat to the absence of their
regular catcher and al unfair UNI
pire.
William King and John Cameron of
Wyanett have harvested some splendid
grain this year and the large number
OF stacks surrounding their respective
houses on Sunday last presented a
pretty and prosperous appearance.
Both William King and John Cameron
are farmers in the true sense of the
word-they know how to treat the soil
so that it will bring forth good crops.
Princeton is not the only town in
the state that can lay claim to the
doubtful honor of having poorer
highways than the country adjoining
it. The Fergus Falls Journal re-
marks: MANY of the roads leading
to Fergus Falls are in splendid con-
dition just now-in fact they are so
much better than the streets of the
city that it makes one ashamed of
Fergus Falls"
Potatoes have been coming in very
slowly at this point during the week
