Robbed of Pocketbook and
Money.

Appleton Press George Monlux,
of Rock Rapids, Iowa, enroute by
team to Morris near which place he
has land, put up for the night Friday
last in Appleton. He occupied a
room at Browns Hotel together with
another man and a boy both strangers
to him.
About twelve o'clock the other man
who gave his name as E. H. Carpenter
rifed Monlux's pockets. after which
he left the room. The boy, however,
was wise to what was going on and
as soon as Carpenter had left the
house, he awoke Monlux. They found
the man at the Milwaukee station,
with a ticket for Minneapolis in his
hand.
Marshal Maher arrested the man,
who on the way to Jail threw the
pocket book which contained $26. O8
and the ticket to Minneapolis, which
were turned over to Monlux.
Carpenter was arranged in the
morning before Justice Sigler and
bound over to answer to the district
court to the charge of grand larceny
in the first degree. Failing to give
bail he was taken to Benson to the
county Jail Saturday.

Bad Story.

A farmer hailing from Lennon
South Dakota. passed through Clar
issa one day last week with ten cows
five horses and all his farm mach
inery and household goods, while or
his way back to his old home neal
Pine River. this state, says the Clar'
issa Independent. He had spent
three years on homestead in South
Dakota, and this had been sufficient
for him and he was glad to be able
to return to the place where people
usually eat three meals a day. He
had been five weeks on the road and
that he was nearing the end of his
journey. seemed to make the entire
family feel more than we'll repaid
for the hardships they had experienced.
The farmer considered himself very
fortunate on being able to come out
of that country with all of his be-
longings something that was impossi-
BILE with many other homesteaders
in that territory. From what he
said we would judge that the word
"ferce" would not adequately de-
scribe the conditions that exist in
some sections of South Dakota. He
claimed he owned as fine quarter
section of land as could be found in
that state but on account of the ex-
tremely dry seasons nothing grew and
it put him as we'll as others in that
neighborhood in a bad condition. 1t
was so dry there that the seed did
not come up that was put in the
ground this spring and he saw entire
sections of land in fact miles of it,
where there was not blade of grass,
or other vegetation, and the ground
was as barren as new ploughed field.
No feed can be bought there for
money, and if it could be bought,
very few people have the money.
Everybody is getting out of the coun-
try as fast as they can, and the way
people are leaving their places isn't
slow, and by fall the country will be
depopulated. Fond hopes of many
are shattered. and the majority of the
farmers, they have practically lost
their all. With no crops, there will
be neither food nor fuel for the home
steaders during long hard winter be-
fore them and it can readily be seen
what shape the people are in out there.

BACK AGAIN.
The Problem of the Free Coun.
ty Boarder.

Hancock Record One Harry
Anderson and Joseph Sweeny, two
of the travelling fraternity who in
habit box cars. will board at the Hotel
de Zahl at Morris for forty and thirty
days respectively. 1t seems that
Harry gave some "bo" soc. to get
him a pail of beer and bring it down
to the box car that served as their
temporary home. The "bo" did not
come back with the beer or the cash
so Harry and his partner started to
hunt up some one to get even with.
They tackled two or three men as they
did not have a clear idea as to whom
they gave the cash to and finally found
one William Rose between Maylott S
warehouse and the Hall restaurant
building and Anderson struck him
twice in the face with his fist break
ing the mans jaw in two places.
DR.. Ransom fixed the man up tempor-
arily and sent him to the hospital at
the State University Tuesday night
while His Honor sent the other two
to Jail. When Marshal Murphy de-
livered his two prisoners at the county
bastile be found that the two had just
finished a ten days sentence that
morning and knew right where their
old hunks were.
The men also told one Of the de-
puties that as soon as they got out
again they would do something to get
back in again for the rest of the
winter. 1t is pity that such char
acters could not be tied to the whip
ping post for at least ten minutes or
be put to work on the stone pile.
There is no sense in feeding such
characters and giving them comfort
able lodging but under the present
law that is all that can be done and
that is just what they want. Under
the circumstances we believe each
community is justified in organizing
a barrel l-stave brigade and rounding
up all such characters and giving
them the chance of getting out of
town in a hurry or of having the
slaves applied to that part of their
anatomy where it would do the most
good.

Everybody Knows Me-" I"
Mortified News,


The other evening I was talking tc
a friend about his advertising. He
told me he didn't do any; that he had
been in the same location for % years
and everyone knew him and knew
where he was located. When a man
has reached that point know that
there is no use of talking to him-he
has reached the point where he is not
interested in his business and is sim
ply changer on, probably because
he cannot afford to close up, for man
who has been in business for 28 years
and hasn't advertised is not apt to
have fortune to retire on. I could
have mentioned several arguments to
him. could have cited his young COM
petitors who had been in business
only IL years but had moved three
times-into larger quarters each
time. They had not stayed in the
same place, where everybody knew
him: they had advertised and grown
into new fields where they had to in
troduce themselves. I could have
given this "everybody knows-me"
merchant any number of arguments
but he gave me the best argument
himself that evening after supper.
He was sprinkling some commercial
fertilizer on his lawn and as | watch
ed him an idea struck me. I strolled
over to where he was and asked him
what he was doing. Of course l knew
but I wanted him to give speech to my
advertising argument. 81 sowed some
grass seed here the other night and
now I'm putting on some fertilizer.
About tomorrow I'll begin to sprinkle
it. and then in a couple of weeks you
will see the finest lawn in the block. -
"Didn't you have any grass there be-
fore" asked, with as green look as
I could assume. ''Of course did;
but you can't expect the same grass
to come up every year and be as good
as it was last year unless you help it
out with new life.' "Jones" l said.
"that may be all right, but that grass
has been here ever since your house
was built, % years ago and everybody
knows it's grass. even of it shouldn't
be as green or as thick as your neigh
bor's.' AS l walked home I wonder
ed if he would see the connection. -

vestigated the matter, but decided
that prosecution was not warranted
as Anderson had not asked any fees,
and the only effect had been some
increased activity on the part of the
Hancock hotel keeper.
The incident caught the eye of funny
man of the St. Paul Dispatch, and last
Saturday, he dressed up the story in
his paper

Il have not" Mr.. Crozier replied.
"Well, there's some big swede up
here who's made me scrub my kitchen,
air my ice box, clean the sinks and
do about everything else in the world.
He says he's an inspector, and. we'll,
l don't want to get pinched.
Mr.. Crozier told the hotelman to
keep watch on the fellow for a while
and he would come up there and see
about it.
Mr.. Croizer got to Hancock and
found the 'big swede' with a
"stew.'' He admitted having order
ed the work done, and admitted he
was not an Inspector. "But." the
fellow said, Il thought It ought to
be done, so I ordered it,

SELECTING SEED WHEAT.
Belief That Frequent Changes of Va
riety Are Necessary an Elk.
ploded Theory.

pIoded Theory.
Most of the farmers in the North
west have been taught the fallacy of
the idea that frequent changes of seed
are necessary for the continued pro-
duction of good crops, and have learn
ed that-having once secured a good
crop of an established variety, like
Minnesota No. 169 Blue Stem, or
Minnesota No. 1853 Fife-the true pol
Icy is to continue the sowing of that
variety. There are, however, varia-
tions in the quality, even of these,
both as between the product Of differ
ent fields and of different parts of the
same field. Hence the desirability Of
taking note of these variations, both
on ones own land and on that of
his neighbors, and securing always,
for seed, the very best that grows.
The time for selecting seed, then, is
seen to begin when the crop is ripen-
ing in the fields; and the farmers of
a neighborhood should cooperate in
saving for seed the product growing
on the most favored spots of their
several fields. By doing this and fol-
lowing it up with careful selection at
the fanning-mill, the quality of the
wheat, and the product per acre, may
be steadily advanced. The plan really
involves continuation, on a broader
scale, of the process by which the
superior wheats sent out from the
Minnesota Experiment Station were
developed.
OF course much larger amount of
wheat should be set aside, of the pre-
ferred growth in the fields, for the
further process Of selection, than it is
intended to save for seed These pro-
cesses should follow at the tanning
mill, which should be used to sort
out the heaviest and plumpest kernels
BY these several selections-due care
having been previously exercised to
harvest the grain at the best moment
seed will be secured which is fairly
certain to mark high when tested for
termination, and to yield the largest
returns for careful husbandry.-C. r.

MORRIS WINS.
Wednesday Tennis Tournament
Marked Success.

The first annual tennis tournament
to be held on the Morris courts was
played here on Wednesday of this
week. and was a marked success.
Playing began in the forenoon and
continued thruout the day, and at
all times there was an interested
crowd of spectators viewing the in
teresting contests.
While the contest was not by towns
but by singles and doubles, yet the
Morris players carried off first honors,
tho pressed hard by the Beardsley
J boys.
The players present were J. P.
Wells, E. C. Eaton, F. c Eaton, R.
Johnson and Ronald Morrison, from
Herman, J. P. Trainer, H. L. Day,
Phil. Mclaughlin and Harvey NAL
oney, of Graceville. and Ingvald
Siverts and Harry Kirkpatrick. of
Beardsley. The following Morris
players participated. C. B. Randall,
VIM. Cooley Jr., Otto Hogan. John
Siverts, w. H. Cherry, II. B. Jones.
J. L. Madison, Lawrence Munro and
A. R. Larson.
Lack of space forbids the publica-
tion of the complete score, which
would show how in the singles the
losing player is repeatedly eliminated
and the winner contests with another
winner who has advanced to equal
grade with himself, until the contest
finally narrows down to two men. who
play for the championship. and also
how the same plan is followed in the
doubles.
The four high men in the singles
were Johnson. J. Siverts, Madison
and Larson. Siverts defeated Johnson
and Larson defeated Madison. and on
account of lack of time Larson de-
faulted to J. Siverts. leaving the
latter the winner.
The four high teams in the doubles
were l. Siverts and Kirkpatrick,
Mclaughlin and Maloney, J. Siverts
and Larson and Jones and Cherry.
I. Siverts and kirkpatrick defeated
Mclaughlin and Maloney--and---J.
Siverts and Larson defeated Jones
and Cherry. The final doubles were
played between I. Siverts and Kirk
patrick against J. Siverts and Larson
and were won by the latter.
After the tournament a fine spring
chicken banquet was served at the
Merchants Hotel. and the prizes which
had been donated by the Morris mer-
chants were distributed to the win
ners.
The following were the prizes given.
for which the club are indebted to
