The commission decided not to have

their dead governor by sending in ST.

An entirely different fund being
raised in Nicollet county, the home of
Governor johnson, practically estop-

participating in the larger movement
for the monument at the state capitol.
St. Peter, the county seat of Nicollet
county, was the only other bidder for
he location of the state memorial, but,
in view of the fact that another monu-
ment was being provided for the grave
side, the capitol was given the unanim-
ous preference.

Regularits in milking like regu-
larity in feeding is what counts.
During the rush of spring work
milking in the mornings will be
done on time, but at night the dan
ger is leaving this work for the
women folks to do or until after
dark. No graver mistake can be
made. A COW permitted to lose her

costing two prices. Don't save on

In the death of Supt Robertson
of the Crookston School of Agricul-
ture the whole state, and particularly
the Red River valley, has suffered a
great loss. AS the head of the above
named school he came in touch with
the agricultural interests of the valley
as no other man, and upon him de-
pended in great measure the solution
of the agricultural problems that cou.
front US. He was always much
sought speaker at farmers Institutes
and teachers conventions. and his
clear logical forceful and interesting
way Of presenting a subject, always
stirred up great enthusiasm. He was
genial andwitty, always carrying with
him an apt story to illustrate his point.

he was expected to take a prominent

ENGLIsHMEN CLING TO BOOTS

London.-Why does the English
workman prefer to 60 voorhees, rather
than change his boots, even when foot
wear suitable for the work to be done

That he does was the view e1-
pressed by the secretary of the French

was the reason why one so often sees
gangs of Italian workmen laying down
asphalt in the streets.

But the combination of heat from
above and heat from below has been
too much for the English workman,
and, despite the fact that we have al
ways offered special cloth slippers,
which effectually overcome the incon-
venience of walking on the hot asphalt,
he has times out of number refused
to make the exchange, and gone else

shall take on more; but If I know any

Kindly overlook the fault.
We had thot of giving the names of
the new students that have enrolled
this term, but there are so many that
it would take too much space. Stu
dents have come from the East and
West and North and South, and still
they keep on coming. New classes
have been formed, and with the able

ceive our new chairs there will b
place for many more.
Miss Anna Haglund, who is to con.
duct classes in music at several of
our ne:ghboring towns is staying In
Warren for several days. She has
just returned from Duluth, where she
had large class of pupils. Upon her
departure her pupils, numbering well
upwards of seventy-five, went to five
other music teachers. The fact that
Miss Haglund had so large a class.
when there were so many other
teachers, more than wiling to take ND
the work, speaks well for her ability.
A large class has already been form
ed; so that Miss Haglund's work be.
gins Immediately.
Why should there not be more stu
dents in the Domestic Economy de-
partment! Does it mean that War
rem already has perfect cooks and
seamstresses? The work is exetreme-
ly Interesting. The charges for tut.
ton are so low, that it does not
amount to much more than the ma
terial used in cooking. If you are
not acquainted with the work done,
find out. Visit the classes.

RATHER faint, but can easily be made
out by a good eye. A little later in
the spring it is supposed to come out
so bright that it can be detected even
in broad daylight. Venus, the bril-
liant ewing star can now be seen by
daylight. if you know just where to
look for it. Try it.
