PRESENT PECULIAR PROBLEMS
Condition in Southern Half of the
Pine Belt Not Same as in the
Northern. -

Lumbermen and forest rangers
from the southern half of the Min

In Bemidji Tuesday, March 26. Will

tend the meeting and will have his
foresters with, him. The meeting for
the lumbermen of the northern part
OF the belt will be held In Virginia,

Walter Eisenach, state forest rang
er with headquarters in Aitkin, was
in Bemidji last night and left for
Cass Lake this morning with L. F.
Johnson. They are to go into the
woods north of Cass Lake and inspect
the slashings at the camps of the J.
Neils Lumber company for two days.
Mr.. Eeisenach says that the meet
ing of the lumbermen and rangers
is to be held in order that they may
come in closer touch with each 9TH
er. The state is paying men to see
that the laws are observed but the
force is too small to act as police and
watch all the camps. The rangers
believe that harmony between them
selves and the lum bermen will result
in better conditions for both. So !
Conditions in the southern and
northern parts Of the pine belt are
not the same so that two meetings
will be held in order that, the section
al problems may be met in that way.
The Bemidji meeting will probably
be held in the city hall.

Prominent Men Endorse The Move
And Say it Benefits Both
Parties.
CHANGE COMES APRIL FIRST
All Papers Will Be Stopped on That
Date Unless Paid For
in Advance.

That the business men of Bemidji
approve of the new method and plan
of subscription collection adopted by
the Pioneer Publishing company as
we'll as appreciate the cut in rate is
manifested not only by the response
in payments, but by personal express
sion. IL
With the time fast approaching
when the Daily Pioneer will be placed
on a strictly cash-in-advance basis,
it is to be wondered at that none
have expressed themselves as op-
posed to the plan, but on the con-
trary, heartily endorse this action.
They are of the impression that it
will be easier to pay for the paper
and have it coming than to have had
it and then be always owing for it.
Men who have been outspoken and
more or less enthusiastic are those
who are considered as some of our
most conservative citizens. The Is
per cent saved through the new
method is looked upon as worth
while, when the aggregate saving is
taken into consideration. When
asked, ."What do you think Of the
plan adopted by the Pioneer regard
ing collections on the Daily?" replies
were of the following nature:
w. l.. Brooks, cashier of the
Northern National bank: 81 think
the plan ideal and should have been
adopted long ago."
E. A. Barker. proprietor of the
Barker Drug and Jewelry store:
"Now you are getting down to bust
ness, consider it a good thing both
for the subscriber and the Pioneer"
B. w. Lakin of the Crookston
Lumber company: otis the proper
way of doing business and believe it
step in the right direction
r. l.. Given of the Given Brothers
Hardware store: 'Exactly the thing
to do. You'll find that people will
prefer to pay in advance when once
they get started
w. N. Bowser of the O'Leary-Bow-
! ser dry goods store: Every fine. It
should save you considerable trouble
and it saves the subscriber a 81,
which is surely worth WHILE"
A. G.. Wedge, Jr., vice-president OF
the First National bank: ut is do

David Gill, proprietor of the Gill
brothers store on Third street: "The
plan and new price should meet with
the unrestricted approval of every
subscriber" D.. -.~
DR.. l.. A. Ward, city physician:
"You are working along the proper
lines. Nobody can object to either
the plan of advance payment or the
new rate"
X. X. Roe of the Roe and Marku-
sen grocery store: "Sure, it's a good
thing. That's what ought to have
been done long ago. Practically ev-

w. G. Schroeder, proprietor OF the

plan is alright. It looks good.

The article in question has caused

he hurt. Cass Lake has population

Considered Doubtful if Anyone Will
Make the Trip Because Of the
Heavy Expense.
CALL ISSUED FOR APRIL Is
Industrial Bodies Also Urged to Send
Representatives to the Con-
vention.

Charles Nagel, secretary of the de-
partment Of commerce and labor, has
sent out circular letter in which he
says President Taft has directed him
to initiate a movement for national
organization broadly representative
of the commercial interests of the
whole country. In accordance with
the instructions, Mr.. Nagle has called
a meeting of Representatives of COM
mercial and industrial organizations
in Washington, April IS.
Bemidji has been placed on the
list of the cities invited to send rep
resentatives, but officials of the Com
mercial club state that because OF
the expense involved it is hardly
probable that delegate will be sent.
The movement appears to many to
be for political purposes.
President Taft in his letter says:
at is not my intention to define
the purposes of such an organization
or indeed in any manner to antici-
pate the scope Of the discussion upon
which such delegates may conclude
to enter; but it appears to me to be
obvious that such an organization
must be instrumental in very large
field to aid and assist the executive
and legislative branches of govern
ment in the intelligent and impartial
development of domestic and foreign
trade.
"For illustration, such an organi-
zation properly represented at the
seat of government could be Of in
calculable assistance in advising the
executive branch of government with
respect to the methods and rules tc
be adopted in the administration OF
existing law. 1t could be of like as
sistance in giving advice in regard
to proposed new legislation and in
counseling Representatives of the ex'
ecutive branch when asked to sub
nit recommendations upon bills in
troduced and pending before commit
tees.
Such an organization would be in
the best possible position to suggest
fields for new inquiry at home and
abroad, the methods by which such
inquiries should be pursued, and the
means by which the results can be
most advantageously brought to the
attention of our merchants and man.
ufacturers; and it is safe to assume
that if such an organization is Great
ed it's chief activities will be devel
oped in the light of our own expert
ence. 1t may not be necessary thai
we adopt course in all respects pat
termed upon the system of any Other
commercial or industrial country, bu
it is obvious that by some means i'm

eminent activities and the CONNER
cial and industrial forces of ou
country must be established if W.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
narrowing Sows Should Be Given Elk.
treme Care.

Farmers lose heavily every season
at narrowing time. The practice fol-
lowed is to have the sows farrow as
early as possible, to get good
growth during the summer, which is
all good enough if proper housing
and nursing can be given the sows.
Too many times stormy weather, rain
and cold come and the SOW isn't
watched closely enough and the lit
ter is lost. That means the loss of
the profit and the sow will be star
boarder for several months, provid-
ing she don't get chilled and die
too. We should begin right now to
provide for narrowing season.
A good many sows, especially gifts,
have been given too much corn for
the good of the animal in order to
get the growth and weight. These
animals should be given a change of
ration to cool them out before time to
farrow Feeds laxative in character,
bone and muscle builders, should be
used. They should be given plenty
of exercise and pure water. Give the
SOW an individual pen and house long
enough before narrowing time that
she may become accustomed to it.
Often the SOW has begun making her
nest before she is separated from the
rest and trouble and loss is the result,
for she is as much set in her ways
as the old hen that has determined to
incubate. The chief requisite for the
sows narrowing quarters: first: That
lit be clean, dry and have access to
fresh air, sunshine and warmth. Have
you given the question thought?
Have you prepared for narrowing
time? Have you provided against
storms? Who hasn't lost scores of
pigs during narrowing season? Was

ciisons will be made Enthusiastically
plain to the people before Mr.. Taft
leaves Chicago for home next Satur-
day night.
The speech in Toledo tomorrow
night is to be delivered at a meeting
under the auspices of the Commerce
club of that city. This fact has led
to the conclusion here that the presi-
dent will avoid discussing big issues
of a purely political nature in his
Toledo address, as it has been his
custom in the past to avoid politics
and make questions of direct interest
to the business community the SUBJ
ject of his remarks when speaking
before a commercial body.
The program prepared for the
Chicago visit will afford abundant
opportunity for the president to
speak his mind freely on any subject
that he cares to discuss. His prin-
cipal speeches in the western metrop-
oils will be made before organiza-
tions of political character, one Of
them under the auspices of the IN
ion League club and the other at a
banquet of the Illinois Swedish
American Republican League. In
Chicago also the president will be in
the center of what is regarded as the
hotbed of Rooseveltism. The CHIEF
Roosevelt headquarters are in Chica-
go and it is from there that the Roos.
evelt propaganda is being sent

KEEP CUTS CLEAN.


Then There Isn't Anything For Them
to Do but Heal.
The cut made by the surgeon should
always be kept absolutely free from

invariably infected.
The germs Of disease are every,
where. No matter how small the rit

quickly and well all germs must ne
carefully removed at the first dress

When we consider how many are
the ways in which cut may become
infected we can understand why sneh
precautions are necessary. lh1eetioh

Germs may also enter from ne ciotl'

to help. from the first piece ol ciolh OF
handkerchief used to stanch the how

Since the avenues of danger are so

infection has occurred 1t follows that
