Union will begin tomorrow morn

producing States are in attendance

Of discussion.
The Farmers Union is a secret

posed or farmers, and has for itsI
main object the elimination Of thS
cotton factor and middle-man and
the marketing of the crop directly
from the producer to the manufac-
turer.
Already the union has numerous
warehouses, and if the plans of it's
leaders are carried out, many more
will be erected during the coming
year, and a strong effort VIII be
made to get into the union every
cotton grower in the South. Then
not only Will the middle-man's
profits be saved to the grower. but
the market can be controlled. for
with all American cotton held ini
union warehouses it can be sold onlv'
when the price is satisfactory.
The union will continue its meet
ing for several days. During the ex-
ccutive session the price Is fixed for
the ensuing year, and members are
not supposed to sell for less. AL
ready the officers have sold a part OF
this years cotton to English manu-
facturers.

into tame grass and timothy and clover

In the past the principal crop has
been wheat, but OF late years corn has
become an important crop. The average
yield Of corn seems to be about twenty
five bushels per acre while wheat yields
from seven to fifteen bushels. In the
past years II has been realized that
darying Is very profitable in this Sec
tion OF the Crow Wing valley and many
farmers have branched out into the In
dustry with great profit.
High above sea level the country is a
most healthfuI one. The clear. light
air is conductive of health and this
phase of the park region has attracted
many settlers to come to this country
and make it their permanent home.
Like the greatest part OF the northwest
country the weather conditions are
ideal. There is not that conglomera-
tion Of weather which Is to be found
in the more southern regions. II Is

when summer. This means much to
the health OF the residents Of a coun-
try.
With these assets II Is easy to see
why Wadena has become a thriving
town. It's good schools attract many to
make their homes in the town and to
start a profitable business there. With
these things and the hustling qualities
possessed by its citizens it certainly
has a bright future before it--a future
which will make It one of the leading
cities of the beautiful park region.

Right in the heart of the town and
opposite the Northern Pacific passen-

is block In extent and is covered with
nice blue grass and many fine trees.
A fountain plays in the center OF this
park and 1t is a bright spot to the
traveller passing through the town.
Summer Homes and Fishing.
Within varying distances OF Wa1ena
are numerous lakes which are famous
as summer resorts and fishing places.
These lakes are really adjuncts of Wa
dena as 1t is only possible to reach
them, by the nearest route, through
this town.
OF these numerous lakes probably
East Battle lake has become The best
known. 1t is situated on the branch Of
the Northern Pacific railroad out of
Wadena and has been for a number of
years place to which people from all
parts Of the country come to get next
to nature and spend a happy summer
in the cool healthy air of the park re-

mendous punches which had great
power behind them.
Kelly retreated before this merciless
onslaught, jabbing Papke I'm the face
with short hooks and jolts. Papke
finally got his man into a corner and
put right and left hard to the jaw.
These blows were overpowering and
Kelly dropped to the boards while the
referee counted nine seconds.
When Kelly got up he was helplessly
groggy. He staggered blindly along
one side OF the ring. clutching at the
ropes. Papke rushed in close, took de-
liberate aim and then smashed the
Chicago man on the side Of the head
with his right that nearly did the
trick. This was quickly followed by
left hook which landed squareiy on the
point OF the jaw and Kelly fell like a
log, the back OF his head hitting the
floor with a crash. 1t was a clean
knockout, for after ten seconds had
been counted, Kelly was still uncon-
scious. He soon revived, however, and
asked what had happened.
Papke was declared the winner, Of
course, and announced that he would at
once challenge Ketchel, who stopped
him in eleven rounds last November,
for the middleweight title. Papke said
that IL Ketchel had really left the mid
dleweight class, he would defend the
title against all corners.

Wadena Located in Heart of Rich Farming Country and
Surrounded by Lakes Is Becoming Commercial Vertex

4 y y
Wadena, the county seat OF wadena
county, Minnesota, is located near the
geographical center Of the state. It is
one Of the thriving towns Of the park
region.
This little city has population OF
1000 people. It has a number OF pros
pering Industries and has become a
prominent business center for the sur
rounding country. This country is
largely some OF the best agriculture
and cattle lands in the entire park re-
gion. Dairying has become quite an
industry of the farmers. They have
realized the value of dairy heards as an
adjunct to good farming. A fine large
creamery at Wadena gives them a
ready market for the product of the
dairy rerds.
While situated almost In the heart Of
the great park region of Minnesota,
Wadena is not situated Immediately on
any of the lakes. However this has not
prevented 1t from being one of the
points to which the summer recreation
lists go en- route to the cottages. In or
der to get to some of the best lakes in
the park region 1t is necessary to stop
in Wadena. Here branch lines of the
railroads or carriages are taken to make
the last step of the journey. This is

and on the railroad has sprung up the
village OF Battle Lake. TO Wadena
people especially East Battle Lake is A
favored spot in the summer and over
q dozen fine cottages have sprung I'M
among the forests which cover the
shores of this lake. This beautiful
body Of water has also become one of
the favored spots for fishermen. FISH
ing is splendid in this lake and a few
hours will suffice to catch the limit of
pike, bass or croppies.
Other much sought fishing places are
Blanche lake, Stuart lake. Leaf lake
and a number OF smaller ones. OF all
Of these lakes, however, East Battle
lake. before mentioned, is probably the
best. 1t is considered one of he most
beautiful bodies OF water in the entire
park region. 1t is about five miles
long by three miles wide. A fine club
house has been erected on it and a
large island near It's center, consisting
of about 160 acres make 1t fevorite
resort.
In all there are fourteen lakes in the
Crow Wing chain. North in Hubbard
county are number of lakes that
have become famous throughout the
country for trout fishing and these may
be reached over the Great Northern.
These lakes are also famous as hunt
ing places. All kinds of water fowl
haunt them. Ducks and geese. are on
these bodies of water in the spring and
fall and attract the nimrods from far
and wide.

WRESTLERS TRAIN
in DIFFERENT Ways

Martin Julian, who fs now managing
Ernest Siegfried, talked about the
various fashions in which well known
wrestlers train. Some. he said. favored
plenty OF active work while others
did little OF 1t.
"Hackinschmidt varies his wrestling
practice with spells of weight lifting,
skipping, dumb-bell exercise and box
ing. zbysco. the Galician, who will
probably meet the Russian lion for the
championship of Europe, thinks walk
ing and cycling more suitable than
punching ball and the skipping rope.
"As a matter of fact, Hacken-
schmidt's London music hall engage
ments are of such a nature that they
prevent him doing any special train
ing. When, however, prior to a big
match, he undergoes any special prep
aration, his main idea is TO avoid that
monotony of training which often
causes 'staleness' in athletes. For
that reason he does anything and
everything he fancies in the way of
exercise, and absolutely refuses to de-
ny himself any luxury I'm food which
he may desire.
"Zbysco believes in the plainest food
and little variation in the matter of
exercise. Briefly described, here is a
day in his life. Rise at 7:30, take a
cup Of coffee and milk, chiefly the lat
ter, and a small roll. A short walk or
cycle ride follows. and at ten he In
dulges in about an hours wrestling
with his trainer and two or three as
slstants.
Breakfast follows, consisting of
coffee and milk, eggs, roll and butter
and jam; another walk or cycle ride,
and then dinner-steak, with vegeta-
bles, rice and homemade lemon water.
"A couple OF hours sleep win prob
ably follow dinner, and after tea and
toast at S o'clock. Zbysco goes to the
Pavilion music hall for his perfor-
nance.
Unlike the Galician, Padoubny,
whom the former recently beat, and
thus qualified to meet fTackinschmidt,
has no special diet, and follows Hack
enschmidt's plan OF not denying him
sely any little luxury he may fancy.
He rises at o'clock, and a good
English breakfast, consisting OF coffee,
bread and butter, eggs and bacon, or
beefsteak. follow a short walk.
After breakfast a long walk until
lunch time, to keep his fat down. At
the midday meal plenty OF red meat
Is eaten, and fowl, preferably chicken,
together with water diluted weakly
with claret or barley water.
"Not until after lunch does Padoub-
ny to the gymnasium. where he puts
In two hours wrestling and skipping.
He makes no use of the punching bag
or dumb bells, and about 6 o'clock has
a good dinner-soup, flsh. meat. fowl
and beverage as before-prior to going

cities in Minnesota. The largest town
in wide area of rich farming lands
and reached by excellent railroad fa-
ciltties, 1t has become q COM
mercial vortex. Thriving business
pursuits Of various kinds have sprung
up in the town and the retail trade is
exceptionally large for a town of it's
size. = wholesale grocery also adds to
the city's business and from it's good
railroad facilities 1t Is thought by many
that IL Will in time become quite a
Jobbing center for the immediate ter
ritory.
There are two banks with a total de-
post OF over $500,000 Three hotels
also contribute a share to the business
of the town. There are seven nice
churches in Wadena. The town owns
and operates its water and light plant
and day current of electricity is pro-
vided for the furnishing of power for
the various industries.
For town the size of Wadena these
industries are notable. There is q
brewery, cracker factory, sash end
door factory. two ice cream factories, a
flour mill and elevator and a number
of commercial concerns to add to the
manufacturing of the town.
The Farming Region.
AS has been said, Wadena is In the
heart of a rich farming and dairying
region. The land is almost level and
the country abounds with running
streams of the purest water. The bot
tom lands along these streams consist
of valuable meadow lands, which yield
large amount of hay in the native
state. These lands can also be worked
