Saltwater, Minn.-Shall executive

or" 81 years old, murderer, life convict
and plant wizard of the Minnesota
state prison, whose whole history rings
with adventure and romance since he
ran away from his Ohio home As years
ago to ride the oceans?
To-day a genius rivaling Burbank,
expert operator among the abstruse
lives Of plants, his contributions to
science and to the very state whose
inch bars of chilled steel shut him out
of the free world, are commanding the
attention of those in whose power 1t
Is to open forever the door Of his small

tropical negotiations, student during
his wild life Of nature in her freest

He is a paramount example of state
prison reform.
Last Christmas this prisoner Burbank,
before hardly known, gave as presents
to two of his friends two immense
lemons, weighing 4S ounces each. In
quiry by his friends revealed still
greater creations in plant life, gratis
and hybrids of the vegetable world OF
unusual quality and value. He has not
only made possible the lemon as a Min.
nesota product, but has outdistanced
the tropical fruit in size, quality and
utility.
His creations of new flowers
crossed growths and Improvements on
the existing, have already for years
made him remarked among his super
visors.
Even if pardon is not granted him
within the year, freedom may be but
four and a half years away. Under

insurance
1aIkS

Farmers as a class carry COM
paratively little life insurance
probably for the reason that
they do not understand the bene-
fits to be derived from it. A,
mong merchants and other town
and city business men life insur-
ance has a very important place.
as much or more so than fire in
surance.: In these times no mer-
chant thinks OF trying to get a.
long without fire insurance and
very few indeed but who carry a
large amount of life insurance.
Everysfarmer should carry at
least enough life insurance to
provide his family with money:
or immediate expenses in case
of his death.
Death never comes opportune-
ly, and there is never a time
when a family is so greatly in
need of ready money as at the
time of and Immediately follow
ing the death of the breadwinner
and p%rovider. Protect your
family to this extent, at least;
don't leave those dependent on
you so that they must twist and
turn and scheme and borrow to
give you a decent burial even to
obtain the necessities of life or
to carry on the farm.
But this is not all the benefits
of life insurance. 1t will not
only give your family immediate
protection, when they most need
it, but will provide all of an
estate that will help to take care
of them for all time. And more
than that-it will provide an es-
tate for your old age should you
live. It will do still more-pro-
vide you with means to raise
money if necessary on account of
short crops or other misfortunes.
as after the third annual paw
ment is made the company will
loan on the sole security of your
policy nearly as much as you
have paid in and at a very low
rate of interest. !
The cost of life insurance is
very low-so low that every far
mer can easily carry a SIS, 600,
policy. The laws regulating
life insurance companies are
such that policyholders are alb
solutely protected, there is no
possibility of an old line COM
pany failing to carry out it's a.
greement.
Investigate this matter of life
insurance and do it now. No
man knows what the future holds
for him and you owe it to your
family and yourself-to see that
your loved ones are provided
for.
we will be very glad indeed,
to give any possible information
about life insurance to any one
desiring it and trust that all in
terested will write US. Don't de.
lay this important matter, to-
morrow may be too late.

here Is the outs anding fact that Gov

ton of the courts in a capital case and
