PIERS BEING PUT IN ABOVE
LOWER BRIDGE.

j. S. Murphy commenced work Mon
day with a crew of seventeen men in
the construction of eighteen piers
which are to be placed IN the
Mississippi river, just above the
lower railroad bridge, during the COM
ing winter. The piers Will be con:
structed of logs and stone, and will
be so arranged as to converge towards
the bridge, causing the logs to run
between the two middle piers in their
progress down river. In this manner
they will be prevented from jamming
up against the piers of the railroad
bridge and blocking the river at that
point. The plan of putting in a
number of piers above the bridge to
direct the logs through the man
channel of the river has been con-
sldered for some time, but it
remained for this winter to see the
actual construction of them.

CORN GROWING IN MINNESOTA.
Z, Five years ago the Minnesota Elk
station started to test

Five years ago the Minnesota Ex-'
pertinent station started to test
varieties and to breed corn in various
parts Of northern Minnesota. As is
we'll known the seasons for corn grow
ing, especially in the north where corn
must mature in less than 100 days or
run the danger of frost, have been any.
thing but favorable In spite Of this
fact few varieties have shown
adaptapility to short season and an
ability to yield a goodly amount OF
corn per acre. The varieties, thus far,
most prominent in the tests are,
Minnesota No. %. Northwestern Dent,
Mercor and Triumph flint. MI nnesota
No. Is, Pride of the North, and
Minnesota King. Foremost among
these IS Minnesota No. %, white cap
yellow dent. This variety was
selected in 1903 at University Farm at
St. Anthony Park. from three or four
hundred others for its high yield-a
average of sc bushels of shelled corn
per acre-and Its early maturity. 1t
rlpened IN less than 100 days. In view
of the fact that early maturity and
largest yields are not correlated, that
early maturity must lessen the yield.
No. % was thought to be an exceptional
variety. The tests at the northern
trial stations have also shown its
superior qualities. At Aitkln, Carl
ton, Grand Rapids, Erskine, Frazee,
Wadena, Osakis, Crookston, Bemidji,
and other points, where 1t has been
tested IN thorough manner. No. %
has matured and given promise OF
better performance the longer it has
been grown. In 1907, 1908 and 1909
!, the surplus seed grown at University
Farm was distributed to farmers in
northern Minnesota. There are there.
fore many who have a supply of seed
for sale. Farmers should get in touch
with these men and secure early a
supply for their own planting.
Corn growing In northern Mime
sofa is successful, provided the land
is in good condition Of filth and
drainage; provided the cultivation IS
frequent and shallow, not more than
two and one half inches deep;
provided the seed used is produced IN
the north; and provided the seed is
properly saved and planted early.

ALL SAFE
TRUSTEE kOHN EXPLAINS THE
SITUATION AND REFUTES
CRITICISM.

MY attention has been called to
some criticism regarding the condition
of the Central school building" said
Herman Kohn of the board of trustees,
last night" In this connection l wish
to say that the criticism which Is
based upon the assumption that the
fire at the building Monday was caused
by q defective flue, Is wrong in Its
statement and unjust in its conclu-
sion. The flue at the Central school
building Is circular iron pipe in the
middle Of large brick chimney, the
space around it being an airshaft In
no possible manner could the building
catch fire from contact with this fiue,
as there Is no contact, anywhere. Last
term the roof of the building caught
fire from sparks caused by the flue
burning out. At that time Mr.. May,
commended that two additional lengths
of pipe be added to this flue. This
was done at once. Mondays fire was
caused in the same manner; the flue
was burning for some time before the
roof caught fire; the burning of the
flue was watched by the janitor and
by the superintendent. School was not
dismissed until it was observed thai
the shingles on the roof had caught
fire from the sparks. The board has
conferred with Mr.. May again and ev-
cry effort will be made to prevent the
burning out of the flue. But 1t Is en-
tirely wrong to say that the fue was
defective.
1T Is also wrong and very unfair to
allege that the school trustees are
negligent in this matter or that they
do not take care to see that the school
buildings are properly safeguarded.
We have used every precaution pos
sible. All of the doors in our build
ings swing outward and there are no
flues which come in contact with
woodwork. The brick chimneys are
used as airshafts for ventilation and
the smoke flues are inside these, sur
rounded by air space enough to pro-
tect the building completely. There is
absolutely no ground for the criticism
which has been offered. The very
statements of that criticism show that
the critic has not taken pains to in
form himself as to conditions in the
school buildings and before he at
tacks the board Of trustees, he should
find out the facts as they exist in the
case"
