his feet this way and that, took a few
steps and. shaking his head, sat down

Oil Of tho Porpoise.

The porpoises killed in winter are
the latest and produce most oil. The
largest size measure about seven feet
in length, five feet in girth and weigh
about 300 pounds. Such a porpoise
yields from six to seven gallons Of oil.
The blubber of big porpoise weighs
about 100 pounds and is one and a
half inches thick in summer and two
in winter. The jaws Of the porpoise
yield a superior quality Of oil. When
hung up in the sun it readily drips
away into cans provided for the pur-
pose, the quantity of oil thus procur-
ed, however, being not more than half
a pint to the jaw. The oil from the
blubber gives an excellent light and is
in demand along the coast for light
house use. It has no offensive odor.

The third and most important meet
ing of the Northern Minnesota De-
velopment association will be held at
Brainerd December l and 2.
Gen. c. c. Andrews, state forestry
commissioner, is of the opinion that
the building of roads, which will in
duce the settlement OF, bona fde home
seekers of the north lands, will serve
as preventative of forest fires.
A man thought to be victim of the
forest fires in the northern country
was picked up near Shelly Saturday.
His mind is unbalanced and no clue
to his identity can be found. He
constantly talks about his wife and
sister and his horses and his potato
patch, and it is thought he is fire
victim. He will be sent to Fergus
Falls.
Anoka county bears the distinction
OF being the only county in the state
to operate it's poor farm at profit.
The other counties find this institu-
ton a source of continual expense.
According to the report of the state
board of control the receipts of the
poor farm in Anoka county in 1909
were So, 233. Is and the disbursements
81, 958.75, leaving a credit balance of
S275. This was gained largely by the
sale of products raised on the farm.
The Minnesota Bankers association
will ask the legislature to pass a law
for the creation of state commission
on farm life conditions and educa-
tion. It will ask that the annual
appropriation of $4,000 by the state
for the immigration department be at
least doubled and will make it known
to the legislature that it's membership
considers 100000 year essential to
the proper carrying on of the work of
directing desirable immigration to the
lands of Minnesota and advertising
the state.
Two cars of beer, a carload of
whisky and half a dozen casks in
transit, for which no order was
issued to stop shipment, arrived in
Bemidj1 this week but will not be de-
livered to the saloon men to whom it
was consigned. This is the first act
to show the liquor dealers what the
full force of the governments latest
blow means to them. The men to
whom the liquor was consigned are
stunned, having figured that by
adding this supply to their stock they
would be able to continue in business
at least half of next year.
Two brothers, aged 8 and IL years,
burglarized the house of William
Price at St. Cloud on SundayEafter-
noon, taking from a bureau drawer
1858 in cash and checks. After Mrs.
Price had left her home the boys
entered and first tried to saw out a
lock of the drawer. Then they bored
hole and forced the lock, taking out
the money. The older boy did the
work while the younger stood guard.
The boys then went to a cigar store
where they bought candy and offered
a $40 bill in payment. The police
were notified and Sergeant Betten-
burg went to the lads home and
found them in bed. They confessed,
when cornered, and took the officer to
the Great Northern yards, where they
had hidden the checks, and to the
new Great Northern ice house, where
they had secreted $40 in bills under a
door sill. The officers withhold the
names of the boys because of their
tender age and the prominence of
their parents.
