The attorney general of the state
| of Minnesota has decided that the
regents of the university of Mime
sofa cannot pay the widow of pro-
lessor, who died during the year,
the salary he would have received
had he lived to the end of the year.
This may be good law but how about
the last legislature which appropri-
ated $1,000 in unearned salary to
the widow of the late Gov. johnson?
The Inconsistency of this decision is
apparent. Is it proper to disallow
the salary of professor as against
that of governor? Such decisions
cause the public to wonder at times
IN what manner these conclusions
are arrived at. More consistency and
more well-defined rules governing

character would do much to dispell
the well-grounded suspicion in the
public mind that decisions of this
character are at times too elastic.

MAYOR AND WHAT?

To be mayor, to be respected, tina
is the fair-weather side of DR.. Du
mas life.
All Cass Lake people were his hon.
oring frienis. He is young, attrac.
tive, accomplished, All able physician
and a good talker. He worked for
his town, for his people who belived
in him, for northern Minnesota.
Then one day he was arrested on
charge of arson and burglary; ac-
cused of consorting with crooks and
making familiars of criminals.
He may be innocent. Should he be
found guilty his life will furnish an
other example of the strange duality
in the human nature.
Why should man find pleasure in
lights and shadows? Is it that we
have drifted so far from the prima-
ry influences that confusion results,
sort of spiritual astigmatism re-
sulting from too long gazing upon
artificially frightened heights? In
other words have men become too
good to be good, over trained in the
lines of human endeavor?
To be free of pretention, deceit;
simple, direct, living ones life with
honest effort to be ones self, neither
crowding the heights nor counting
the valleys this is the secret of bet
ter average men and women, ADLER
to do the worlds work. In such con-
ditions duality of character would be
impossible.

BEHIND THE POLITICAL SCENTS

Opeaking of congressman, in a
quiet off-hand manner, who will
rush out and try to pull down that
congressman-at-large job?
More than one anxious soul has
propounded this query to himself
during the past month. There's a
place that's open to any Industrious
young man with college education
and desire to improve his political
condition.
Ofcourse the job will be short lived
as the next legislature will do things
to this old so far as congressional
districts are concerned and the then
congressman-at-large will be or m ay
be shuffled off into the mass of USE
less political material.
Anyway its something to have
been a member of congress and
there are those who say that "mem-
ber-at-large" is the only real thing
for an ambitious man.
So there are names being mention
ed and few are rising to refuse the
honor.

ter carrier a great convenience. 1t
consists of small wire rope elevat-
ed to any distance desired. and of
any length. the outer end being plac-
ed over a pole and then firmly staked
to the ground.
The supporting pole ought to be
braced on three sides to prevent IL
from swaying. The box may be a.
large as desired, but the average
size will hold about six bushels.
The end of the track in the barn
should be about foot higher than at
the outside end. SO that when the car
is loaded 1t may be pushed out and
run down the incline by its own
weight
A manure spreader may be station

box is fastened to the carrier by bolts
through its sides it can be dumped
in jiffy, and vigorous push will
send 1t back to the barn.

In a certain country in the middle
west rather intensive methods Of rails
ing potatoes are followed in three
year rotation-one year of grain, one
year of grass and one year of potatoes.
AS much of the land as possible is
manured at the rate of twelve loads
per acre. and frequently commercial
fertilizers are used at the rate Of 500
pounds to the acre. Under these con-
ditions yield of 1862 bushels per acre
has been known on field of 237 acres.
The cost per acre, including seed.
spraying, insecticides. planting, har-
vesting, etc., was but s37.72.
On an adjoining farm of 233 acres.
where the land was unfertilized, the
cost of planting was $2636 per acre.
The yield was 1877 bushels. The moral
is evident.
