made larger or smaller, according to

Poultry food Of all kinds has steadily
advanced in price for the past three

killing off your stock at this season Of

Advocate. You will find that the prices
OF market poultry and eggs have ad-

the profit in keeping poultry is great

MARSHALL COUNTY
STATE LAND, SALE
Description of the County as
Given by State Auditor
lVersOn.

very center of the garden spot OF
the Red River Valley and is rich
agricultural district. Marshall
County has the reputation OF pro-
ducing bumper wheat crops and
has never known . failure. Diver
sifed farming has also been tried
here with marked success and
.dairying and stock raising is be-
coming a prominent feature Of Mar
shall County farming.
This county has an area Of about
1870 square miles and but a very
few acres can be considered waste
land. Warren, thriving city, is
the county seat.
The surface of Marshall County
is generally level, with gentle
slope towards the Red River, and
the many natural waterways insure
excellent drainage.
Anything that can be raised in
Minnesota, or even the Northwest,
can be seen at it's best in Marshall
County and it might be we'll for us
to remind our readers that the
finest No. hard wheat in the world
is produced in the Red River Valley,
of which Marshall County forms an
important part.
Vegetables of every description
grow to an enormous size here and
tame hay and all kind of grasses
thrive.
Several lines of railroads operate
throughout the county and pros
porous little towns are found at in
tervals along these lines.
Nearly all of Marshall County is
prairie, but some timber is found in
the eastern part, as well as along
the river bottoms and around the
lakes.
Every township in the county is
organized and splendid common
schools are established throughout
the rural districts, while larger
schools, with all the higher branch-s
es are found in every village Of any
size-and there are many.
The present price of land here
ranges from So to $40 per acre and is,
advancing rapidly in value as
settlers are crowding in and pull
chasing every available tract.
The State of Minnesota owns
many acres of land in this county,
but it is thought that a large share,
of it will be sold at the coming land
sale in June. If you want to make
yourself a Goa Portable home in one
of the best counties in Minnesota
you will have the opportunity of Sc:
curing piece of this land very
cheap on easy terms, at the sale.,
These lands will be sold only in
small tracts to the highest bidder
and all you will need is enough
money to pay Is per cent of pur-
chase price at the time of sale, then
the state will give you forty years
time on the balance at only 4 per
cent interest. Can you get a better
deal elsewhere?
The date and hour of this sale in
Marshall County will be on Tues
day, June 25, at l o'clock P. M.
The sale will be conducted at the
Court House and about 80, acres
will be offered.

The average man comes very near
being all idiot in taking care of him
self. You have seen him wearing a
fur cap on his head while his shoes
let in the snow and water. He
wears an overcOat on his back and
nothing but thin shirt over his
chest. He is mighty scared about
freezing his fingers while his throat
is exposed to billiards and he is
often ailing or thinks he is. It's
herb tea, root tonics, Peters pills,
Paul's pine tar and cordias or plast-
ers and cures, until the balance
wheel in the machine comes to a
stop. Nature wants to keep going,
but she can't. He drinks whisky
and that clogs the valves; he drinks
beer and that clogs the wheels; he
pours down lemonade, ginger ale,
buttermilk, ice water, tea, coffee
and What not, and then wonders why
the fires under the boiler do not
burn. II you should take an OK and
put him through a like performance
he'd be dead in a year. The simplest
and 1plainest laws Of health are out
ragged every hour OF the day by the
average man. Did Adam smoke?
Did Eve wear corsets? Did Ruth
chew gum? ~

pleasant nature. Four non-commissioned
officers OF a colonial regiment are said to
be actually under arrest on charges of
fraud. One of them is alleged to have
appropriated all the bonuses of re-enlisted
men for the last year. amounting to sew
eral thousand francs, and has been ar
rested after the soldiers had complained
of not receiving the sums they had been
promised. Another non-commissioned Of
ficer. 1t Is alleged. pocketed all the extra
pay of the men and falsified the accounts
to his advantage. A third Is accused Of
having sold or facilitated the theft Of
several tons Of wool and being an accom-
plice of burglars. and a fourth Is said to
be In prison for conniving at various mall
practic 8. In the same regiment another
non-commissioned officer Is said to have

ment, and finally. a corporal who, 1t Is

Irish Linen Mills.
Special Cablegram to The Star.
DUBLIN, December 2.-Belf,

Special Cablegram to The Star.
DUBLIN, December belfast linen
manufacturers are disposed to treat
lightly the report that an extensive plant
for the manufacture Of linen from Ameri-
can yarn Is about to be erected in Yer
mont. One goes 50 far as to say that a
similar report has been periodically cir
culated during the past twenty years, and
that 1t is mere BLUR designed to cut
down prices.
1t is to be hoped that this optimism
Is well founded. Belfast sends three
fourths of its annual export to America,
and serious competition there would have
a killing ef1ect upon the Irish industry.
All inclined to credit the report saen
to agree that Scotland not Belfast, would
be affected by the American mills, which,
they say. could only produce coarse ma.
terial similar to that expo ted from Scot
land to the states. For some time to
come, at all events. the best class of
Irish linen will be without a rival.
