500 LINE TO DULUTH Is BEING
SURVEYED.

It has been officially announced by
Mr.. Pennington, the President of the
500 railroad. that the work on the
Brooton-Duluth line will be rushed to
an early completion this summer and
also that the work of building a road
direct from Thief River Falls to Du-
luth will be commenced this summer.
The surveyors are already busy on
the direct line and the purpose seems
to be to have the survey completed
so early in the summer that when
the work is completed on the Brooten
line, which will likely be in August or
September, the entire grading force
may be transferred to the direct line
and large part of the gradingbe done
this fall, while the low lands are dry
and in good condition for fast work.

TRADE AT HOME.

Just about now the mail order

for the spring trade of the smaller
cities or towns and of the farmer, are

logues by the thousand. Experience
proves that, taking all things into ac-

more and brings less satisfaction than
to buy Of the home merchants. Money

who find in the town a ready market

Farm Application of Honesty.

'The nearer we approach strict hon
nesty, the nearer we approach divi-
nifty" John Trowbridge:
The dairy farmer must be hon
est with his mind, he must
recognize it's demands for study
and Investigation. He must be hon
est with his soil, not rob it. He must
be. willing to give up a part of what
the farm returns to him for the pur-
chase of the necessary elements Of
fertility nitrogen, phosphate, potash.
He is not honest If he does not do
this, neither is he getting rich If his
soil is growing poorer. He must be
honest with his live stock. They
give up the right to live to him. It is
not honest for him to pay no attention
to their Improvement. their health,
their efficiency. They have right,
an honest right, to call on him for

More Grain From Fewer Acres.

In eastern Kansas too many farm.
ers have too many acres of corn, and
in the western part probably two
thirds of the farmers have too many
acres of wheat-too many to permit
the making of a good seed-bed; too
many to permit the seeding in OctO-
ber, the only safe month in Kansas
for sowing wheat; too many acres to
permit OF it's being cut at the proper
stage Of ripeness for the best germin-
ating condition, and too many acres
to permit it all to be cut without loss
from shattering; too many acres to
permit the farmer to grow and save
properly his alfalfa; and last, but not
least as result of the above condi-
tiOns, too many acres for a reasonable
profit if he would apply business me-
thods in estimating cost of labor and
add interest on land and equipment.
We must begin new method of keep
ing farm accounts and find ways of
decreasing the cost of production of a
bushel of grain or pound of pork, or
butter, or poultry. In 1907 Kansas
had over 7.O51.ss2 acres of wheat, but
the average yield was only trifle
over ten bushels per acre, or gross
value Of say 81 per acre. Why not
stop Dragging about acreages and get
ready to brag about yields, due to
brains? Why not begin to figure out
the cost Of every bushel of corn,
every pound Of pork and beef?-J. H.
Miller in The Kansas Farmer.

LAW IN REGARD TO
AUTOMOBILES.

Now that automobiles are becom-
cality, it is timely to remind owners
of cars as we'll as the general public
of the Minnesota state law in regard
to the operation of motor vehicles.
Farmers may not generally know
that the operator of an automobile is
obliged to stop when meeting teams,
providing a proper signal is given.
The law is as follows:
Speed.-No such vehicle shall be
propelled or operated on any street
or road within the settled portion of
any city or village at a rate of
speed exceeding eight miles an hour,
nor over any crossing in city or
village at a rate exceeding four miles
an hour, when any person is using the
crossing, nor on any other road or
street at any rate exceeding twenty
five miles an hour.
Muffer, bell, etc. Every such
vehicle using gasoline as motive pow
er shall use muffler, which shall not
be disconnected while within any city
or village, and shall also be provided
with bell or horn, which shall be
sounded whenever there is apparanl
danger of collision or accident; and
if operated in the nighttime, such
vehicle shall have suitable light
conspicuously placed thereon
Operation of vehicle to stop, when.
The operator of any such vehicle
propelled upon any public road, shall
stop the same on signal from any per-
son driving horses or mules on such
road until such horses or mules have
passed.
n--PenaIty.-Any person who
shall violate any of the provisions of
the law shall be guilty of misde,
meanor.

LAWS CONCERNING
BIRDS AND THEIR NESTS.

Sec. 5156 Revised Laws of Mime.
sofa for year 1909.
Every person who shall in any
maner voluntarily kill or destroy any
brown thrush, bluebirds, martin,
swallows, wren, cat-bird, robin,
peewee, meadow lark or other insect
devouring bird of any kind or name
whatsoever or who shall wantonly
destroy the nest or eggs of any such
bird shall be guilty of a misdemeano1
and punished by a fine of not less
than one dollar or not more than
fifteen dollars"
Chap. 344, sec. "a Gen. Laws 1905
reads as follows:
NESTS and eggs-no person shall
at any time take or have in posses.
sion or under control, break up or
destroy or in any manner interfere
with any nest or eggs of any of the
kinds of birds, the killing of which is
at any or all times prohibited"

DANISH THE FLY.
He Is Convicted on Circumssantial
Evidence Of Being Life Destroyer.

Now that scientists have traced the
tuberculosis germ to it's lair and the
genus rat has been condemned to
death in California because of it's re-
putation as prisoner of the plague
flea, and the mosquito has been pro-
nounced guilty of carrying yellow
fever and malaria. the time of the
house fly has come. The Merchants
association of New York is after the
insect and it is to be henceforth re-
moved from off the face of this good
land.
The Merchants association, thru
it's water pollution committee, of
which Edward Hatch, Jr., is chairman
and J. P. Morgan, a member, has pro-
nounced the little fly upon the WALL
guilty of the dissemination of the
germs of typhoid fever, tuberculosis
and several lesser diseases.
Whatever may be the real charac-
ter of the fly, he certainly has been
indiscreet and has imprudently in
1olved himself in a chain of circum-
stantial evidence. For instance in
Brooklyn, the investigators set up
some fly cages. During the week end.
ed June 6, 1908, there were fifty
deaths from intestinal diseases and
tifty.five flies were caught. BY July 4
there had been PIP deaths and 1000
insects were captured, thus proving,
so the fy-catchers declare, that the
increase Of disease was due to the in.
crease Of flies.

PENMANsHlP IN NORTH STAR
COLLEGE.

Penmanship at North Star College
is receiving the attention which that
important subject deserves. Under
the efficient instruction of Prof. c.. E..
Sjostrand, the students of the institu-
tion are making a very rapid pro.
gress. From time to time during the
winter the students have sent SAMPLES
OF their work to the Penman's Art
Journal, of New York. It was there
fore source of qualification to Prof.
Sjostrand as well as the institution
with which he is connected, that
seventeen students were awarded
certificates in penmaship by said
journal. At the meeting of the North
Star Literary Society on Saturday
evening, Prof. Sjostrand delivered
these certificates to the students who
were entitled to them. In making the
presentation the professor directed a
few appropriate remarks to the sue.
cessful students, commencing them
for their careful, patient and persist
ent practice and congratulating them
on the success achieved.
On the walls of the assembly room
We're exhibited samples Of the STU
dents work in penmanship, all done
with the free arm movement and in
flowing, easy, neat and legible style.
Many of those who entered the insti-
tuition last fall were hardly able to
write at all. The progress they have
made is therefore remarkable.
Writing is subject that is too
often neglected in our schools, and
it is gratifying to see North Star Col
lege is giving it proper attention.

GOVERNMENT TEST Il rs.
On CLOVER SEED
ME83Rs. MUNGER & SON. OF.
WARREN, SCORE HIGH ON
SAMPLES SUBMITTED TO u. 8.
: DEPARTMENT OF AGRlCUl.
TuRE. r -...

Messrs. Munger & Son, of this city
recently sent samples, of clover seed
to the United States Department of
Agriculture. at Washington, for the
purpose OF determining the purity of
the seed and it's terminating quality.
The report has now been received
from the Botanist. in charge of the
government seed laboratory giving
the result of these tests. The purity
test is for the purpose of determining
the percentage Of purity of the seed,
the inert matter and foreign seed in
a sample, and according to this test,
Als1ke Clover scored 97.96 per cent
Of purity, the Red Clover-Medium,
scored 81 81 per cent, and Red Clover
Mammoth, scored 1896 per cent.
This is indeed a very high score in as
much as the small percentage of
foreign seed in the samples was
timothy and white clover, which are
not harmful in the least.
In the terminating test the Red
Clover-Medium scored 95 per cent,
Red Clover-Mammoth SS.05 per cent,
and the Alsike Glover 1898 per cent.
The seed that did not germinate in
the four to six days allowed for the
test, are the so-called hard seeds,
which have unusually hard seed coats,
preventing them from taking up
water readily; yet when allowed to re-
main in the water or in the ground for
long time, will most of them become
sufficiently softened to permit growth
The above tests demonstrate the
high quality of the clover seed grown
in this section of the state. Messrs
Munger & Son have also received a
letter flsm Prof. Moore, of the Agri
cultural Department, of the University
of Wisconsin, congratulating them or
having such excellent seed.
It is <ssgain demonstrated that the
Red River Valley leads the world ir
clover.
