$3,643.35 is now on deposit In the bank,

of the amount asked for.
Greater effort will now be put forth
at once to try and get at least nearly
the full amount in. Ten thousand dol

eternal mind.
ITO progress in life, we must use
the everlasting mo- when dealing with

The University of Minnesota regents
are preparing to organize the extern
sion work of the state farm school. as
provided when the legislature made an
appropriation of $4,000 for each of two
years with which to get the work under
way. Dean Olsen is right when he
says that if the money is wisely ex-
pended it will yield larger returns than
any the legislature ever appropriated
for any purpose. Extension work at
the Wisconsin school OF agriculture has
proved very great success. There
is no reason TO believe that it will not
be Of even more benefit to the farmers
Of Minnesota.
This state is one Of the first on the
list Of agricultural commemorative,
says The ST. Paul Pioneer Press.
Farming is our principal industry 1t
is the foundation upon which our pros

therefore, for us to improve our con-
dition is to better the results of those
who till the soil That can be done by
showing them how to make most Of
their opportunity, how to farm scien-
tifically so as to get the maximum OF
returns from their efforts. The farmers
all want good crops and large profits
II they do not know how to obtain these

The grievance Of congressman
against the president Is that he
sawed off" this situation for con-
gress. The party in power never rel
ished congressional investigation of it's
own administration, as the very un-
derta4ing presupposes possible occa-
sion for it.
Taking all these things into con-
sideration, it is certain that the con-
gressional committee, when it gets
down TO work will dig ruthlessly into
all the ramifcations of the feud, and
will be unsparing of criticism where
fault is found.

that after his sweeping, unqualified

Secretary Ballinger, they say,
could still have recourse to the libel
laws of his country, and the whole

relieved of official flavor, and the adj
ministration's skirts would be clear.

effort will be required from now on to
get the needed amount together.
The fact that the subscriptions are
so small as they are makes many peo-
pie regard them as trifies, and wait for
some one of the soliciting committee
to come around to collect, instead of
mailing in their checks and saving
the labor.
Seven counties have come UP with
their full apportionmenr and some of
them have a comfortable little balance
over. 1t is again urged by the secre-
tary that all money collected up to
date be sent in as soor- as possible.

the members to go to New York
where the service is to be made, to
make the final decision as to design,

To Meet at HilIsboro.
The Fargo members of the commits
sion have been expecting a call for a
meeting for some time. When the last
meeting was held here over a month
ago it was decided that the next ses-
sion of the commission would be held
at the residence of Hon. E. Y. Sarles
at Hillsboro subject to the call Of the
secretary. II was then the intention
that such a meeting should be held
about Dec. 10.
Just why the meeting was not called
has not been learned. Mr.. Sarles,
while in the city last week, said that
he had been expecting the meeting to
be called at any time and had written
several times 0 the secretary with
regard to the subject. The holiday
rush probably prevented the officers
from taking UP the work and now that
it is over it is probable that Mr.. Brock
hoff will issue a call.
