Hibbing, Chisholm, Nashwauk, BO'

According to map which he has

are no Indians nearby and there has
never been any complaint about VIC
lating the Indian liquor laws they
must suffer with the others Mr.. John
son has not entirely verified his map,
but he says he will close the saloons if
his map is correct.
He places the blame for the present
agitation on F. W. Zollman, a st. Paul
attorney.
I'VE are going much farther in this
matter than the Indian bureau ever
intended" he said. I'VE have been
forced to proceed with extreme meas

events"
Mr.. Johnson would not say what &C

Poverty Among School ChfIdren.

A perusal of the report of Miss
Florence M. Wellman, supervisor of
the public schools of Brattleboro
which is included in the report of the
prudential committee, touches a
pathetic chord which will doubtless
secure for 6 the supervisor the CO.
operation she seeks to secure in the
way of assistance for the poor pupils
whose parents are too proud to permit
of their poverty being made public
by applying to the town for help.
The supervisors report contains the
following sentences: 'It would make
your heart ache when the small lad
takes off his shoes, which may be tied
on with string, or to hear him apollo
gize for his stockings which in all
likelihood have no feet. One boy told
me his feet got SO hot with his stock
ings.'' Continuing in her report under
the subdivision of lone cause of non
attendance" the supervisor says,
MANY time a boys teacher pays for
shoes or a sweater out of her own
salary" It is very probable that this
story of pride and poverty will have
its desired result and the supervisor
will have not only the continuing as
sistance of charitable parents but will
enlist the sympathy of others.

TOp-DreSSing and Seeding Down

Many farmers are finding it to their
advantage to seed down during the

catch than they do when they fol-
low the usual practice and seed down
in the spring.
The same is true regarding top
dressing grass land. Some Of the most
progressive farmers put on top-1ress-
ing Immediately after haying, with
perhaps a small application of nitrate
of soda the following spring.

been approved by the Vermont Expert
