three weeks.
Rev. Father Ryan Of Madison. Wis.
mas arrived in the city and has been
made one of the assistants to Rev.
ather Egan, pastor of St. Mary's ca
thedral in Fargo. He is a young
mar and has already made many

MILL CLOSED DOWN
FOR REST Of
SEASON
Difficulty in Getting Logs
Ascribed as Reason
For Shutdown.

An unofficial statement was issued
this morning to the effect that the
big sawmill Of the Grand Forks
Lumber company, which was shut
down about June 20, would not start
up again this year. Difficulty in Sc
curing logs enough to keep the big
institution going is ascribed as the
reason. The Red Lake river has beer
exceptionally low for the past couple
of years and has interfered materially
with the sawmilI's cut. The company
has millions of feet of logs in the
Red river but the big log jam there
and the low stage of the water has
made it a physical impossibility to
get the logs to East Grand Forks and
consequently there has been nothing
for the management to do but close
down. The logs could be shipped in
by rail but this cumbersome and ex-
pensive method has proved to be too
difficult a way of keeping the plant
working continuously so it has been
dropped.

GOVERNMENT FRUIT
MEN ARE WORKING
HERE

The United States department OF
agriculture. in cooperation with the
railways Of the northwest, is conduct
ing some very interesting experiments
and demonstration work in the hand
ling ard shipping of fruits from the
northwestern states to the eastern
markets.
At present they have some cars es-
peciallN fitted up for the purpo of
cooling fruits very quickly before
shipment. in operation at Puyallup,
Washington. These cars are equip
PED with the ammonia cooling process,
the fruit to he shipped is deuced to the
desired low temperature in from three
to six hours before it is moved in the
cars. and the results of the investiga-
ton thus far indicate hat tender
fruits from the western coast can be
laid down in Chicago and points east
Of there in better condition than they
can he shipped a short distance when
handled by the methods at present in
vogue.
The department did some work
along this line last year and the re-
suits achieved We're really startling.
They found hat slightly different
methods of picking and handling the
fruit. even without preceding, would
result in its reaching its destination in
IA much better condition than when
handled as it now ordinarily is. With
preceding added to better handling
the North Pacific coast states border
ing will be able to supply the markets
on the Atlantic Goa with fresh fruit
in good condition.
The department is also making
some Investigations as to the time at
which different varieties of apples
should be picked for best results. that
they may keep the best in storage. It
has been demonstrated to a crtaintv
that the ~orchardists are leaving their
.'Jonathans on the trees too long before
picking and that they are picking their
Rome Beauties too 500 to have them
come out of storage in the best posi-
HE conditin. The department is also
making Investigations With other va
rieties OF apples as we'll as peaches.
pears, cherries and other fruits.
Berries Treated Similarly.
The department has heen shipping
carloads of berries SO treated from
Puyallup, Wash, over the Great Nor
thern railway to Grand Forks. where
they are being inspected and the adj
vantages Of careful handling and pre-
cooling determined. The Great Nor
thern railway is cooperating with the
department in its work.
Later in the fall experts from the
department will he stationed at Cash
acre or Wcnatchec to do experiment.
al work and study the picking and
handling OF peaches, apples and pears.
Two fruit experts are here at the
present n they are George w.
Dewey and Harold Bird. These two
men are at present at the Grand
Forks Mercantile company carrying
on their work which is very interest
ing and Instructive. Inside of a few
months the data gathered here will
he compiled with other data and a
bulletin will he ssucd by the depart
ment Of labor at Washington.

Late in August this year the great

According to announcement made

which will be her late in August. the
exact date not having been announc-
ed as yet.
The Sells-F1oto company is known
throughout the country as the twenty
five cent circus company. In speak
ing of the reasons for these popula:
tracing agent for the company, said:
Five years ago a director of
amusements who prophesied an err,
of popular prices, such as We are
having in the theatrical world today,
would have been rated nothing short
of a lunatice. But strange things
happen as the Wheel of time turns.
handing more for their none than
ever before in the history of the
world, and proprietors of attractions
seeking to meet that demand. Per-
haps the exception to this has been
the circus. n barring one instance,
all the old line shows adherer to the
scale of prices which prevailed two
decades ago.
The management of the Sells Floto
circus, however, for the past three
seasons, has inaugurated a new pol
icy, no doubt believing that in doing
SO they could retain and hold the
greater portion of public patronage.
When the simple statement is
made that we have cut the regular
price: which from time immemorial
has been the rule Of the circus. in
half. few people stop to consider what
this means in the regular totaling Of
q seasons receipts. But coming right
down to figures. it shows a primary
discrepancy of almost s10O.o 900. when
compared with the sum total of a
season at the old prices.
Considering the fact that it costs
more than $4,000 a day to operate a
bio amusement enterprise of this
kind n can get some idea of the
risk involved when the management
of the circus decided to cut the ad-
mission to 25 cents. All their rivals
in the circus business expressed the
opinion that such a feat of financial

business standpoint it was possibly
the wisest move that could have been
made. The records show the attend

he performance in every way than
IT was under the old system.
This season the % cent tariff will
