A Plea For Farm Schools,

10 crowd OF 10000 people Jas. j.
Hill made one of his best addresses
at Rochester last week. The burden
of his address was an urgent plea to
the people Of the rural districts te
become interested in the state agri
cultural college SO that it may be q
more use to them in the science O.
farming than it is at present, and also
to study the art of fertilizing the lane
and achieving better results il the
raising Of crops. In speaking of the
agricultural college he said:
"Sometimes you hear our farmer
friends say that these college fellows
undertake to teach Us and they dc
not know how to hoe hill of pota.
toes.
II want to say that these college
fellows will save the country when il
is saved. All the agricultural col.
leges in the world are in touch with
each other.
IF the farmers do not get the best
results from the agricultural college
of the state there is no one to blame
but themselves. The agricultural
college is their own particular institu-
tion and they must see to it that it is
no longer a political ball to be tossed
back and forth. -
Mr.. Hill dwelt upon the increase in
the cost of wheat and said that the in
crease in population is greater than
the increase in the yield of wheat,
therbey making a greater demand.
1.-The great change is due to the fact
that our public domain is occupied, -
he said. 'It is not a new thing, par
ticularly for us in the west, to hear
or even see that our nejghbors have
to move to Canada to get free home,
and they cannot get it any longer in
Canada, for the prices of land are ad-
vancing. You may think I am dis
couraged, but am not. There is no
question but that our country can
support FIVE times its present popula-
ton.
If the young people will make up
their minds to remain on the farm
and be as true to the farm as the farm
will be to them, they will never have
cause to regret it. They will be
happy, they will be better men, women
and children and have better life in
this and the next world than if they
go to the cities taking all the chances
some Of them more, I think, than
they are able to stand"

clever young wrestler from Princeton.

outweighed Hass by about six
pounds but that did not bother the

won fall, the third bout was called a
draw after terrific struggle in which
neither grappler had the advantage.

Make 1t One of the Best.

Make 1t One of the Best,
The Wahkon Enterprise believes that
our county fair should be better ad-
vertised in the north end of the county
and that an effort should be made to
get exhibits from that section. If
permanent grounds are secured and
suitable buildings are erected there
should be more extensive advertising
and special effort put forth to Sc
cure more exhibits. But under condi-
tons for the past few years our
county fair has been patronized more
than it deserved. There is no reason
why the Mile Laos county fair should
not be one of the best and most sue
cessful of any in the state every year,
Situate as we are on the borders of
four counties. We cordially agree
with the Enterprise when it says:
Next years fair should be the
biggest and best ever held in the
county, and a little more effort
exerted in the right direction can
easily make it so.''

Rev. e. C. Clemans Honored

Rev. 3. G. Clemans, who for six
years was superintendent of the Du-
luth district of the Methodist Episco-
pal church, has retired from Office,
and the ministers of Duluth, in token
of their appreciation of his good
work. have presented him with a
beautiful gold watch.
The presentation took place shortly
after the business session of the
northern Minnesota annual Methodist
conference opened at Duluth last Fri
day, and the presentation speech was
made by Rev. ". E. J. Gratz of Two
Harbors. Mr.. Gratz said that it
would be hard to find a more willing
worker than Rev. Clemans had proved
himself and he voiced the sentiment of
the entire community when he said
that it was with keen regret that he
was allowed to go. He said that he
wished Mr.. Clemans to think of his
Duluth friends when far away as his
friends there will certainly remember
him. He said that the watch might
run down, but that Rev. Clemans had
SO wound up the hearts Of the people
who compose the Duluth district that
he will ever be kept in mind associ-
ated with the most pleasant of
memories.
Rev. Clemans' voice shook as he
accepted the gift, and responded
briefly, thanking the members of the
conference for it, assuring them that
they would never be forgotten, and
that the time spent in Duluth has
been the happiest of his life.

ton speech, was at one time pastor

ORANGE PICKING
NOW UNDER WAY

Orlando, Nov. 20.-Wagon load after
wagon load of orange boxes. ladders,
pickers and paTaphernalia left town
in every direction this week, indicat-
ing that orange picking has begun in
earnest in many localities. With very
few exceptions the growers all say
their crop is larger and better than
last year. The packing houses have
been remOdeled and put in excellent
shape and one new one erected by DR..
Phillips and there seems to be no rea-
son why Florida oranges should not
go into the market this year in prime
order and command an outside price.
One thing is sure, they are not
going to be rushed in all in a heap,
with half Of them green and the rest
poorly packed. The exchanges all
over the county will ship only gilt
edge stock and ship 1t as the market
calls for It. That's what the exchange
is for and that is what it will do.
