SEED CORN

have a quantity of Seed Corn
for sale that think as near perfect
as is possible to have it. As to it's
terminating qualities. l have made
six separate tests of fifty kernels
each and have found but one kernel
that did not grow. Have employed
a new method for curing corn for
seed which is far superior to any
other have ever seen.
By actual test of one hundred lbs.
of nice selected corn as it came
from the field. in good condition
for cribbing, expelled by this
method 81 lbs. of moisture. You
can readily see that the corn is very
dry. This was done before freez-
ing weather. AS to variety, be-
lieve the corn is as large as it is
safe to grow in this part of the
state. The last three years it has
been planted in variety plats in this
county under the supervision of the
State Agricultural Station, they
sending a representative to superin-
tend the planting and also to har-
vest it in the fall. Fifteen varie-
ties, including my own, were plant
ed.
will not say that my corn was
superior in every respect, but will
say that in all essentials that go to
make up good corn. there were none
superior to mine, and most of them
inferior.
My corn was awarded diploma
and bronze medal at the Pan-Ameri-
can Exposition at Buffalo. It has
taken the Sweepstake premium at
every Street Fair in Willmar.
My corn is known as White Cap
Dent and will yield from 80 to 60
bushels and can be coaxed up to Is
bushels per acre. It never failed
to mature here. and is especially
adapted to the conditions of central
Minnesota.
Have grown cron in this county
forty years, and have made grow
ing seed corn speciality for twenty
five years.
Price at my farm at present, ST..
90 q bushel.

Irene Hazlett has just returned
to school after an attack of la
grippe.
Ralph Rule has left school and
is now taking Willie Fluallen's
place in Dunbar and Williamsons
drug store.
Dean and Violet May have
been absent from school with
chickenpox.
The senior class have been very
unfortunate during the past week
there were scarcely enough to
have their classes.
Dora Gabler was absent
Wednesday on account of sick
ness. This is the first time she
has been absent this year.
Florence Young. Olive Callen-
der and Jessie Whadford have
been absent from the seventh
grade. Sickness being the cause.
On Arbor day the graded
school had a program on the
steps outside the school building
1t was very interesting and all OF
children took their parts we'll.
Miss Smith. teacher of the fifth
grade has been absent this week
with tonsilitis. Miss Lucy Hatch
was a good substitute Monday

ker is now acting as substitute.
Arbor day was spent very
pleasantly by the high school
students. After short program

around the high school. A lunch
was served by the girls and we
may say that the boys did il
Justice.

Tariff Does Not Effect Growers.

In these days of tariff revision
a reduction in the price of any
staple article is almost unheard
of. 1t will be a matter of gen
eral rejoicing among fruit grow
ers when they learn that some
of the principal orchard necessi-
ties are now on the market at
lower figures than for several
years. Arsenate of lead, for in
stance, is now offered at one cent
a pound cheaper than last season;
and we were surprised to learn,
on recent visit to the North
Fork Association, that similar re-
ductions are also in effect on
spraying machinery and acces-
sories. This was explained by
the fact that these people we're
enabled to take advantage of the
car-lot rates by ordering this
springs stock in quantity and as
is the custom of this concern. the
patrons get the benefit of the
savings in freight. When it is
remembered that the quality of
the stock is much improved over
previous years it will be seen
that the growers of the North
Fork valley, at least, will get
greater value for their money
this year than ever.

|LL-FATEO MAINE IS MENACE To
NAVIGATION IN HAVANA HARBOR

| struction to navigation Is the fact
that this wreck, although it contains
the bodies of SO American seamen, or
what is left Of them, is apparently
abandoned and forgotten by the gov
ernment and people of the United
States. Thousands of Americans and
thousands of other nationalities an
nually enter the harbor of Havana
and probably not one omits to express
regret and censure for the deplorable
spectacle. 1t has became national
reproach, and an International scan
! dal
The neglect to remove the wreck Is
attributed by many, especially the
large Spanish contingent in Cuba, to
the fear that its removal will disclose
the fallacy of the popular belief that
the Main was destroyed by torpedo
or mine instead of an interior ex-
plosion; so generally does this opin-
ion prevail that l believe the Cuban
government was deferred thereby
from dealing with the wreck as an
obstruction to navigation of its coast
al waters and destroying it; however,
Il should be admitted that the Cuban
authorities were also restrained by a
belief that the United States would
some time desire and attempt to re-
move 1t and preserve the wreck as a
whole instead Of breaking 1t up and
removing 1t in the most inexpensive
manner.
The correspondence on file in the
department Of state and the navy de-
partment at Washington show that q
belief prevails in those departments
that It is necessary to secure, by
treaty or otherwise, the consent Of
the republic Of Cuba to the authori-
ties Of the United States entering the
harbOr OF Havana and proceeding
with the work Of removal. This per-
mission, II necessary. can be easily
secured and the Cuban government
would gladly afford every assistance
In its power to accomplish the de-
sired result, not only because Of the
Improvement OF the harbor facilities,
but also because Of the prompting of
patriotism and sentiment. I earnest
ly recommend that the United
States government take immediate
steps to accomplish the removal
without further delay.

At a meeting held at the stateliouse
at Salem between the committees ap-
pointed under joint resolution of the
senate and house for the celebration
of the fiftieth anniversary of the ad-
mission of oregon into the union,
Frederick V. Holman, as president.
and George II. Hines, as assistant
secretary of the oregon Historical So
ciety, were present by special lnvi-
tation. The date of the anniversary
falls on Sunday, February II, and
the celebration will be held at the
state house at Salem on the follow
ing Monday. February 10.
The following program was agreed
on for the celebration: The meeting
will be called to order by Senator M,
A. Miller, chairman Of the committee
on arrangements, and Jay Bowerman,
president of the senate, will preside.
The speakers will be Governor George
+. Chamberlain, representing the
state: Frederick V. Holman, repre-
senting the pioneers. Judge Williams
is one of the surviving members OF
the convention which framed the con-
stitution of oregon. The formal ad-
dress will be delivered by Frederick
n. Judson, lawyer and publlcist OF
st. Louis. A band will be provided
to furnish the music. Seated upon
the platform will be the speakers,
members of the supreme court, state
officials and many distinguished
guests. Directly in front of the plat
form will be a number of seats re-
served for the earliest pioneers, many
of whom, 1t is hoped, will be pres
ent.
Some confusion is generally prev
alent regarding the exact date of the
anniversary. This is because the
first constitutional convention was
held September is, 1857, and the
constitution was adopted by popular
vote of the people on November g.
1857. all without the authority from
congress. 1t was not until two years
later, on February IA, 1859, that con-
gress passed an act admitting oregon
to the union and accepting the con-
stitutlon as adopted by the people two
years previous.

shington.-Governor Magoon, OF
the provincial government of Cuba
In his annual report to the secretary
OF war made public today, brings to
his attention the wreck Of the United
States battleship Maine in Havana
harbor and recommends that the gov
ernment take immediate steps to ac-
complish it's removal without further
delay. He says:
The wreck of the Maine continues
to lie in the mud and water OF Ha-
vana harbor. The sunken battle
ship is a serious menace to the ship
ping of the harbOr, as 1t occupies
portion of the best ancorage. The
obstruction has increased annually
during the past 10 years by causing
a shoal The moderate tides prevail
ing in the harbor are hardly sufh-
cient to prevent gradual filling up
and this shoal seriously interferes
with the action Of the tides, and
therefore. the entire harbor Is rap
idly filling.
It will be necessary in short time
to begin dredging in order to pro-
vide proper ancorage for the large
amount Of shipping now entering
the harbor unless the wreck Is re-
moved. The ancorage is also res
tricted by the wreck and the shoal,
for ships are obliged to anchor at suf-
ficlent distance to prevent grounding
in case they strain on their cable.
A Reproach to the Nation.
Even more important than this OBJ
