Mankato. MINI. DEC. IS. "A aoves--
ment has been started Ia the territory
north of here for the building of rail
way from Mankato to Duluth, pro-
bably by way Of St. Cloud. TITO move
ment seems to have been started by the
people of the eastern part Of Morrison
county. They have received a proposi-
ton from the American Engineering
e Construction company of Cleveland
to build the line from Mankato to
Duluth, and are asked the cooperation
of the towns ana cities along the pro
posed route. The matter has also been
taken up with the Commercial Club of
Duluth. The company proposes to
start work at an early date, provided
the preliminaries can be arranged.
A large territory the road would tap
now has no railways. and hundreds of
farmers have to haul their produce
from fifteen to twenty miles. The
Mankato business interests have for
thirty years or more been trying to
get such q road. The last time. it was
proposed to start at Austin and build
to st. Cloud and Duluth. but the &C.
tual building started at Albert Lea
and went as far as st. Clair, this
county. Then the Milwaukee COM
pany bought the road.

Because | was little girl and not

She says four boys were quite enough
to storm and stomp around,
And one boy more would just as sure
have put her under ground.
She said she thought 'twould be real

Who wouldn't always jump and yell
and keep things in whirl.
But, just today, she said that girls
we're bad as boys she guessed
At any rate she said that l was worse

See that the water supply is good

A Few School Hints.

With the present month begins the
daily pleasure, but grind OF school
life; when the youngsters are routed
out early to have breakfast and do
their little appointed tasks before
going to school.
One who is acquainted with country
and country school life knows how
great the efforts have to be, and the
sacrifices that have to be made, by
not only the children but every mem
Der of the family, who is interested
in their advancement.
Every patron of the country school
should take an active interest in it,
and see that conditions are right and
not blame the teacher when he or she
does not secure results desired. The
teacher is often handicapped by the
Indifference of the voters who fail to
make any effort toward lettering
conditions. See that there is proper
ventilation; that the windows are SO
they can be lowered from the top.

with them day after day. If they
have shutters, don't find fault with
her if she does not close them even
on Friday. She alone knows how
poisonous and foul is the air in the
room when that is done. Ii the
children in your district are so bad
that they will throw stones through
them, better let them do it rather
than your children should become
pale, tired, cross or contract loath-
some type of catarrh and weak lungs.
In many localities water stands under
the country school house during the
wet season; make an effort to have
a drain made so that the floor will
not become damp.
Ask your school board to see that
the chimney is in good condition;
that the stove does not smoke or emit
foul gas; that it is placed where it
will warm the building and not scorch
the children on one side while they

Wild Fruits.

The Ranch goes to many places
where fruit is not so plentiful as it is
in most places in Washington. We
have been asked to give directions
for making use of wild grapes, choke
cherries and elderberries.
These fruits require work to pre-
pare, but are certainly worth the
trouble as l can personally testify
WILD GRAPES.
Take the fruit before it becomes
"dead" ripe, and with sharp point
ed knife cut in halves and pick out
the seed. Boil down little, then
add equal amount of sugar and cook
until thick.
JELLY.
Use either the green or ripe fruit ;
mash and cook until soft, put in jelly
bag and let drip over night, then pro-
ceed as in other jellies. Some use a
pinch of something to keep the cream
of tartar crystals from forming and l
will find out if it can what it is.
GRAPE JUICE.
Pick fruit off stems rejecting those
that are not in good condition. To
each three quarts of fruit add one of
hot water. Cook until soft, but not
longer or the juice will taste too
strong. Put into bag to drain at
least twelve or fourteen hours. To
each quart OF juice add one-third cup
of sugar or it may be omitted. Boil
five minutes; have the bottles perfect
ly clean, roll in hot water, then ill
full with the boiling juice. Be sure
that the corks will fit, then pour over
boiling water to soften. Put into
bottles. AS the juice cools shove
corks in more below the mouth of the
bottle if possible, then pour over
melted sealing wax, parraf1n or hot
beeswax. Melted rosin may be used
but is harder to get out. One could
seal in fruit jars like fruit. Do not
let juice touch tin. Use granite ware.
This juice is not wine, but is very
nourishing for sick people and a
pleasant drink mixed with water for
we'll people.
CHOKE CHERRIES.
Strange as it may seem to some
people this fruit is delicious properly
prepared, and may be used for sauce
or pies. The difficulty lies in pitting

Thirty bodies had been removed at

from fear inspired by their plight, two
miners, who had been with the party
rescued last night. are dashing wildly
about the channels in the far recesses
of the mine. All night the men of the
rescue squad had been chasing the
maniacs but just as soon as their
would-be rescuers get close on their
trail, the madmen would dash away
screaming wildly. The news of their
plight is being kept from the families
who have given them up for as dead.
