Deputy Game Warden Miller Warns
All Anglers Concerning Pro-
visions of the Law

Deputy Game Warden J. F.. Miller
asks The Herald to warn all non-resi-
dent fishermen that it is illegal for
them to ply the anglers art in Min
nesota waters without license. 1t
has come to Mr.. Miller's knowledge
that the law is being fractured to
some extent in this particular respect.
He therefore proposes to give full and
fair warning before resorting to more
strenuous measures in the premises.
The legislature of Minnesota, at the
last session, amended the fish and
game laws by adding a section relat-
ing to licenses for nonresident fisher
men. Section l of Chapter 267 of this
law reads as follows:
Every person over the age of q
years, not a resident of the state of
Minnesota, is prohibited from fishing
with hook and line in any waters of
this state without first having secured
a license therefor from the game and
fish commission, from county audi
tor, or from a local game warden.
The fee for such license shall be
$780,"
Sections and 3provide for the kind
of blanks to be used. Section 4, pro-
viding penalty for violation of the
law, reads as follows:
"Any person violating the pro.
visions of this section shall be guilty
of misdemeanor and upon conviction
shall be punished by fine of not less
than One dollar nor more than five
dollars for every fish so taken.''
Mr.. Miller calls attention to this
new regulation especially as during
the summer season good many non
residents spend few weeks camping
at the lakes. AS most of them are
likely to be ignorant of this latest
provision, he takes this opportunity
to warn them.
In this connection it is apropos to
state that the last legislature repealed
Sections % of Chapter 344, which pro-
hibits the use of dogs in hunting
birds.

TO MAKE GOOD ROADS
Ten Million Dollars to be Expend-
ed in Minnesota Under
EIWeII Bill

The good roads convention, held at
Bemidji on Tuesday, resulted in de-
cision to expend ten million dollars in
constructing highways through the
forest region of Northern Minnesota
under the provisions of the Elwell
law, passed by the 1911 legislature.
The first road to be built will be from
East Grand Forks by as direct route
as possible, through Red Lake Falls,
Erskine, Bagley, Bemidji and Cass
Lake to Duluth. State Forester w.
T. Cox asserts that the construction
of this great highway will be of in
estimable benefit in checking forest
fires. Other roads will be construct
ed in time. Another good roads meet
ing will be held in the near future,
probably at Brainerd. The atten-
dance at the Bemidji convention was
large and much enthusiasm was man.

THEY Want BIDS
Getting Ready to Grade the
Grounds of Home School
for Girls

In another column in this issue ap-
pears an advertisement of Morell &
Nichols, landscape artists, of Mime
apolis, calling for bids for grading,
sodding, building graveled roads and
making other similar Improvements
at the grounds of the Minnesota Home
School for Girls. According to the
advertisement, sealed proposals for
this work will be received at the of
flee of the above named firm in Min
neapolis until 2 D. m. Monday, Au-
gust I, 1911.
The Board of Control has had un-
der consideration this matter of i'm
proving the grounds, for some weeks
past and has finally accepted plans
for the same. tits understood that
something like 1900 is to be expend-
ed for this purpose. The grounds are
now in rough and unfinished condi-
tion. The plans for the institution
contemplate elaborate driveways and
landscape effects. 1t is hoped to
have foundations for additional build
ings in before the snow flies.
At the last meeting of the members
of the Board of Control, held at the
school last week, DR.. J. A. Dubois of
this city was appointed physician for
the school. This appointment comes
as fitting compliment to DR.. Dubois
and substantial recognition of his
services in connection with the insti-
tuition, for to him more than to any
other one individual is due the fact
that Sank Centre secured the school.
DR.. Dubois has already entered upon
his duties. The appointment came
unsolicited Audience is especially ap-
preciated by the recipient.

The members of the high school
foot ball team are beginning to stir
uneasily in their lairs. Tuesday eve
ming bunch of them were out on
the school grounds kicking the oval
about and trying different gridiron
stunts. There will in all probability
be good lot of material from which
to pick team this season. The SUI
perintendent of the Sank Centre
schools, Prof. M. d. Aygarn, is an old
hand at the game, having played on
the second team at the University of
Minnesota and bucked up against
such gridiron artists as Webster and
his team mates back in the early
nineties when Ed Rogers, Sig Harris,
chunky" Davies, Jimmy Irsfeld and
that bunch were the chief exponents
of the game. Supt. Aygarn is fully
capable of coaching team and put
ting 1t into shape to play good foot
ball, Something may be expected to
be doing when school opens.

AFTER APREACHfR
CODgregatiOnaIiStS Want a Man
to Fill Their Pulpit
WILL TRY TO GET one
DedCOnS and Trustees Meet and
Take Measures to Secure a
Permanent Pastor

The deacons and trustees of the
First Congregational Church of Sank
Centre held joint meeting Friday
evening to consider church affairs.
The pulpit has been vacant since
June l and the church authorities
thought something should be done
Immediately toward securinga pastor.
This question was discussed at some
length and it was decided to go right
ahead and get good man as soon as
possible. The deacons and the trus-
tees have two men in mind either of
whom would, in their judgement,
make good pastor They will try
to have these men visit Sank Centre
in the near future and fill the pulpit
for Sunday, so that the members of
the church and congregation may near
them and thus enable them to vote
intelligently on the question of ex-
tending call to the pulpit. The dea-
cons and the trustees act in an advis-
DRY way: the matter of choosing a
pastor is decided by vote of the con-
gregation. The deacons and trustees
feel that the nulnit should be filled
as soon as possible, in order that the
different lines of church work may
not languish.
At Friday nights meeting the
question of remodeling and improving
the parsonage was discussed. The
house as at present arranged is in
convenient. Several needed changes
will be made and there is a probable
ity that city water will be put in,
sewer connections made and the house
made thoroughly modern structure.
1t was voted to ask committee of
ladies to look over the house and
make suggestions as to any desirable
changes. This work, it is hoped, can
be done very soon, so that the house
may be ready for a pastor as soon as
one is secured

rode in the big Pierce-Arrow and can
personally testify to the pace set.
When most of the tourists had ar
rived in Sank Centre DR.. J. A. Du-
Bois delivered brief address of well
come to the visitors at their rendeZ-
vous in front of the Palmer House
where the street was crowded with
tourists and townspeople. The doctor
spoke in his usually happy vein and
took occasion to advertise Sank Cen
tire and it's interests. His remarks
were received with generous applause
by the tourists. Shortly after this
the cars began to pull out for Alex
andria. There were about $50 in the
party, many ladies being among them.
A little before six o'clock twenty
cars from Glenwood appeared. The
travellers alighted and took supper at
the Palmer House and then went on
their way. The party left Glenwood
Wednesday morning, ran to Willmar
for dinner and stopped over night in
Litchfeld. Thursday morning they
came up to St. Cloud and met the
tourists. Taking dinner at the
county seat they came along up to
Sank Centre i'm leisurely manner.
There were about eighty people in
the party and all reported very en-
joyable two days outing.

SUBSTITUTE FOR HAY
In a Dry Season Fodder Corn Will
Meet the Demand in
Good Shape

The shortage in the hay crop IN
Minnesota in 1910 and 1911 is proving
great stimulus to the erection OF
silos. 1t is also having the desirable
effect of increasing the acreage OF
corn. With good acreage of corn,
aud silos to store it in, the shortage
in the hay crop, from the standpoint
of feeding the stock on the farms, is
not serious.
A safe policy for the management
of our farms must provide a good
acreage of hay and pasture, good
acreage of corn, and ample silo capa-
city. With a good supply of silage
left over from the preceding winters
feeding, the drouth and temporary
shortage in pasturage is not serious
to the stock-raiser. With ample silo
capacity, and a good acreage of corn,
a shortage in the hay crop need not
worry the stock-raiser; because he
can put in the silo enough of his corn
crop to take care of his stock. 1t is
desirable, however, to plan for rea-
sonable acreage of pasture and hay:
because of the great value OF these
crops in cleaning land and maintain
ing in it a reasonable supply Of vege-
table matter
If one has not silo, fodder corn
that is, corn sowed thickly and cured
in the shock in the tield,-makes a
most excellent substitute for hay. In
fact, it is valuable adjunct to the
live stock ration, even though there
may be plenty of hay available.
At number of places in the state,
farmers who have no silos are getting
excellent results stacking the corn
green outside. Corn thus stacked has
come out as ga No. u ensilage; ex-
cept for the to II inches around the
outside, that naturally molds because
the air gets at it. This method of
succulent feed in the win
Ter is worth looking up by farmers
who haven't silos.-A. d. Wilson,

BOOM FOR EDDY
Twin City Papers Boost Our Own
frank for Congress
FROM SIXTH DISTRICT
Gossip Concerning a Successor to
Congressman Miller in the
Eighth District

The city papers are indulging in q
good deal of more or less reliable Cos
sip these days. The Minneapolis Tri-
bune of Tuesday morning printed an
item that Frank M. Eddy of Sank
Centre might be congressional cam
didate from the sixth district. The
St. Paul Daily News of the same even
ing trailed along with rumor that MI.
Eddy would be an active candidate
for congressman-at-large, in case the
Crumpbacker bill becomes alaw. Mr..
Eddy returned home Wednesday even
ing and in response to request from
The Herald, furnished the following
statement for publication:
Il have given the matter neither
thought nor consideration. l am too
busy with other matters at the pres
ent time to even think of politics
The primaries are over year in the
future and it is too early to talk poll
tics. Should l make up my mind TO
run for any office, at the proper time
l will inform the public and there
will be something doing. There will
be no doubt in the minds of the pub
lie or the other candidates that I
am in the race"
Harold Knutson, who made so much
money running the Foley INDIE
pendent that he sold out few weeks
ago and since that time has been liv-
ing in luxury like Standard Oil mag
nate, visited Duluth during its recent
water carnival. In addition to being
good newspaper man and the presi-
dent of the Northern Minnesota Edi-
torial Association, Harold never fails
to keep his weather eye on the politi-
tical situation. Upon his return to
St. Cloud, where lie is staying with
his ''folks'', he unbosomed himself to
the Journal-Press which tells about it
in the following article:
"Harold Knutson, who takes pol
itics as a duck to running water,
discovered while at Duluth attend
ing the wet carnival, that there are
at least four active candidates to
succeed Congressman Miller. P.
Boyle of Elveth, Alex Mcknight OF
Duluth. Colonel Potter and Captain
Taylor of Aitkin, with the tall form
of r. C. Dunn in the background.
There is a great deal of sentiment
for Dunn, but it is not believed he
will get into the fight. Senator
Boyle of Elveth was born in st.
Cloud, made good record i'm the
senate, is an eloquent orator, and
if he lived at Duluth he would win.
1t is understood that when the time
comes the heavy weights al the
Zenith city will boom some candi-
date who will ably represent the
district, and who has the popular
ity to win, and the good sense to
keep steady in his course. Duluth
finds that she has made mistake
in changing congressman so often,
and now wants man who will
gain power by continued service.
Then there is j. Adam Bede!'
