namely, that State Master Stetson of
Maine had issued ban against dane

forbid dancing at any and all times
whether preceding. during or after the
session of the grange and, indeed, on
every other evening in the week MI
Stetson's attention being called to the
statement in the paper, he denied he had
promulgated any such order. He said
he was following the rulings OF his
predecessors, which allowed no dancing
during the grange session. Mr.. Stet-
son says that he does not own the
grange halls, and he does not claim the
right to say what they shall be used
for the other five nights In the week.

TOM WATSON MELoN-72 POUNDS.

The best all-round melon grown in Georgia.
1t has every good quality of the famous Georgia
Rattlesnake, and is superior to that variety in
that it is almost free from rotten ends. 1t is
much better shipping melon and it is much
better keeper. 1t is superior to the KLECK-
LEY MELON in that it grows much larger,
and has all of the sweetness of that variety
I have been growing melons for the market
for the past twenty-five years, and have tried
all of the varieties known in Georgia, and have
no hesitancy in saying that the TOM WATSON
melon comes nearer meeting every requirement
than any variety I ever saw. I consider the
seed to be worth their weight in gold.

BISHOP SPfAkS|KILL THE WEEDS
Importance Of Getting Them Off
of the Farms
A PRACTICAL PROPOSAL
Country Publisher Comes Forward
With a Plan That he Thinks
Would do the Business

The following from an exchange
contains good suggestions relative t.
the important matter of the EXTERN.
ination of noxious weeds:
Some provision ought to be made
for the destruction of weeds. WilC
oats and mustard have been aboui
the worst weeds people here have had
to contend with, but in late years the
Canada thistle, quack grass and other
OF the more dangerous weeds have
been obtaining a foothold though
none of them are Yet general. Here
IS the plan we should offer:
THAT the state declare all weeds
giving the names of the plants to be
sa classified-as a public nuisance
and provide for their determination
Ev requiring that each owner of real
estate destroy those on his own do
main, and making the township au-
thorities responsible for keeping the
public highways clean of them.
I'VE would have it further proyid-
e. that ii the owners refused o.
neglected to do this, the county or
township should have it done and
charge it up against the property to
lie paid in the same way as taxes.
And to enforce this, each county ought
ID employ man for three or four
months of each year, and to give him
considerable authority SO that he
could take action where necessary
without too much loss of time.
This man should be Independent
Of local politics, and should be able
10 give information as TO the best
methods of killing the weeds, both III
direct, answer, to, inquiries and by
writing in the local papers-which are
always willing and anxious to help
in cause like that. He should try
to accomplish the work by advice, but
where it was disregarded should b.
prompt to prosecute. Any county
could spend 5000 year for man
like that
Perhaps some of the advanced stu
dents in the state agricultural schools
would probably make the best inspec
tors. but if some of the old, retired
farmers or even some of the active
ones, who have boys enough at home
t. attend to the farm work, can be
induced to take up the work they
would inspire more confidence. To
begin with both kinds might be used
and couple of years would demon
strate which was most effective.
"And the owners of vacant farms
those which have been under culti-
yation and gone back-should be COM
PEELED to seed them to grass. There
isn't so much need for weed law
and an officer to enforce on account
of the cultivated farm as there is
on account of the vacant farms and
the public highways. They are the
main weed nurseries.

BEHIND THE SCENES
Detectives Are Still at Work timing
up Fellows Who Have Been
Stealing Grain

While on the surface, there hasn't
been anything doing in the matter of
the grain stealing cases, which have
been mentioned in recent issues of
The Herald, yet it does not follow
that the cases have been dropped
Northern Pacific detectives have been
probing deep into details and have
been making a good many startling
discoveries. 1t transpires that Crook
ed work has been going on for years.
Those implicated are employees Of the
road or have been, and also some
grain buyers. One of the latter, when
detective approached him for infor-
nation, declined to produce any.
Thereupon the detective got so busy
that the grain buyer soon found him
self in an extremely embarrassing po-
sition. That was in some other town
than Sauk Centre, but it is on the
AitIic + dllS anu DdhOId huc VI IhC
Northern Pacific.
A number of Northern Pacific en-
ployes have been discharged for
crooked work and are likely to be
placed on trial in the courts for their
misdeeds. No such rattling among
the dry bones has been known for
years as has resulted from the investi-
cations conducted by the State Grain
ard Warehouse Commission and the
railroad company.
Chas. Watson, special agent for the
commission, the result of whose in
vestigations has already been publish
ed in The Herald, arrived in Sauk
Centre last Sunday night and return
ed to Minneapolis on the Oriental
Limited Monday morning. He was
here looking up additional evidence.
Mr.. Watson did not care to talk for
publication further than to endorse the
position The Herald has taken in the
matter, complimenting it for printing
the news in a fair and unbiased man,

Christmas Gift for Chief Of Fire
Department
FROM TIE fIRfMfN
Members of Sduk Centre Department
Remember Their Leader in a
Substantial Way

George Fish is wearing a fine gold
seal ring.
He is proud of it. He has reason to
be.
The ring is the gift of the members
of the Sauk Centre Fire Department.
Mr.. Fish is chief, and good one too.
| He has served with satisfaction and
with credit, both to himself and the
department and the city for the past
five years.
! Mr.. Fish's brother firemen con-
ceived the idea that it would be ap-
propriate to give their chief some
thing as a Christmas gift that he
would appreciate, and would, at the
same time, show him that his SER
vices were appreciated by them. So
they purchased fine gold seal ring.
On the seal are engraved Mr.. Fish's
initials On the inside of the ring
are the words, 'To our Chief, 1904
A blank space is left for the year,
whenever that may come, that Mr.
ish retires from the office, though
the other members hope it will be
good while before he does.
The ring was given to Mrs. Fish on
the evening before Christmas. She
was instructed to present 1t as she
saw fit. One of the customs in the
Fish household is to have Christ
mas tree for the family sometime dur
ing the day. This time Mrs. Fish
broke the custom, as far as the head
Of the family was concerned, and
presented the ring to her husband at
breakfast, making what George says
was oae Of the finest speeches he
ever heard The gift was greatly ap-
preciated by the recipient, and he
wears it with pride.
At the Palmer House on Christmas
there was an informal celebration by
the landlord, the boarders' and the
REGULAR employees. A fine tree was
"On tap" in one of the rooms on the
second floor, and all assembled there
about $3.50. L. E. Heifner and land
lord A. W. Austin. officiated as Santa
Claus and distributed the gifts. Ey-
erybody got something. There were
many jokes and all took the fun in
good part. There were also some fine
presents. The girls received enough
candy to last them for, some time.
One of the lady boardefs was the
proud and happy recipient Of
Man" But if you want to know all
about it ask Bunny" McGibbou or
Leo Heifner.
Christmas Day in Sauk Centre was
an ideal winter day, with bright sun
shine and excellent sleighing. There
were numerous family parties, and
good cheer was the rule. Several fam
lilies dined at the Palmer House, where
special Christmas menu was serv-
ed. In the evening there was a dane
ing party given by the regular board
ers, a number of guests from out
side the hotel being invited. 1t was
/. very pleasant affair.
The exercises at the different
churches on Christmas attracted the
youngsters. Musical programs were
given and trees were in evidence.
The music was excellent and every
thing passed off very pleasantly.
