Announcement.

To the voters of the fifty seventh
legislative district of Minnesota.
I hereby announce myself as a re-
publican candidate for senator for the
fifty-seventh legislative district OF
Minnesota, subject to the decision of
the voters at the next primaries, and
I hereby declare the following to be
my platform of principles on which ]
stand:
First-For the re. election of the
Hon. Knute Nelson and the Hon.
Moses Clapp to the United States
senate.
Second-For the adoption of con-
stitutional amendment to the federal
constitution permitting the levying- of
a national income tax.
Third-For an amendment provid-
ing for the election of United States
senators by vote of the people.
Fourth-For the conservation of the
undisposed of natural resources of the
nation ana state.
Fifth-For local option by counties.
Sixth-For tonnage tax on iron
ore.
Seventh-For the repeal of the
bushel tax on grain.
Eighth believe the mortgage re-
gistry tax law should be superseded
by an act levying tax, say per
cent, on the annual income from
mortgages and other credits, or by
an act otherwise relieving the Dor
rover from the burden of the tax,
which under the present law falls on
him.
Ninth-For a modification of the
truancy school law, which seems too
stringent and is working a hardship
in many cases.
Tenth-For the further aid and pro-
motion of the state establishment at
Saltwater for the manufacture of farm
machinery.
Eleventh. will support any mea-
sure calculated to secure fair and
equitable railroad rates, and rates of
other public service corporations, and
it shall be my policy, if nominated
and elected, to support to the best
of my ability, as in the past, all good
measures and oppose bad ones and
strive for economy in the States ex-
penditures. LOUIS o. FOss.

the kings health have, however, been
exceedingly encouraging and until re-
Gently the general public has been
prone to believe them. On the other
hand, it will not cause any surprise if
the next royal funeral will be held in
the Swedish capital. There seems to
be no organic trouble, but his majesty
seems to be slowly failing ana change
of air and medical treatment does not
seem to have had the desired effect.
1t is rather strange that neither the
king nor the queen Of Sweden have
enjoyed really good health for several
years past and this means that more
state duties have been thrown upon
the crown prince and crown princess
than would otherwise have been the
case. At the present time the crown
prince is practically conducting the af-
fairs of the nation, only matters of
the very first Importance being re-
ferred to the king and unless there is
some speedy Improvement there is a
possibility of formal regency being
proclaimed.

that is no small item. Vegetables pur-
chased at the store are never as fresh
and never taste as good as those gath
cred from The garden.
There are difficulties in the way of q
successful vegetable garden, of course.
On the farm the men folks are often
too busy to monkey with the gar
den. In town space for garden can
not always be obtained. and it is some
times difficult to get the garden plOw-
ed and cultivated. A little planning
will overcome all obstacles, however,
and the results fully justify any trou-
BILE that may be incurred.
Planning the Garden.
Success in home gardening depends
to a considerable extent on having
everything planned out beforehand. 1t
is a good plan to make a rough map
of the garden. Make lines where the
rows are to be and write on each row
the name of the vegetable to be
grown. If horse cultivation is to be
used the rows will need to be about
three feet apart. Where the garden is
to be cultivated by hand most garden
crops can be planted as close as four
teen to eighteen inches apart. The
garden should be planned for horse
cultivation wherever possible, as the
extra space used will be more than
counterbalanced by the saving in la
Dor. In the case of town gardens it is
often possible for several neighbOrs to
make arrangements for man with a
horse and cultivator one afternoon out
of each week. In this way the cost for
each will he insignificant, and the gar
dens will be kept in shape with min
iAsum of hand work. The same plan
can be followed in getting the gardens
plowed and manured.
y In planning the, garden early crops
can often be followed by late ones,
thus getting double use Of the land

When the Elete chorus, consisting
of fifty picked voices from the Ameri-
can Union of Swedish Singers, will
reach Stockholm they will be accord
ed an unusually warm reception. It
goes without saying that they will be
accorded a hearty reception in all the
cities that they will visit during their
extensively planned concert tour
throughout the country. Swedish
American day will be observed at
Skansen, in Stockholm, on July 4 and
on this occasion the SWedish-Ameri-
can chorus will give a concert, which
will be attended not only by the best
people of Stockholm, but it will at
tract hundreds of Swedish-Americans
and American tourists. Both Swedish
and American songs will be rendered
on this occasion and there will be a
special programme of patriotic songs.
In spite of the fact that the Swedish
press is doing everything to place a
damper on the rumor that King Gustaf
is in very i'll health it is becoming
more and more apparent that his con-
dition is giving a great deal of cause
for alarm. 1t is apparent that his long
visit at the Riviera has not had the
desired effect on his health. 1t was
thought that the warm weather in the
extreme southern end Of Europe
would do him good, but the truth of
the case seems to be that it has not.
