KILL THE CANADIAN THISTLE.

The following treatment of the Ca
madam thistle has never failed to
completely eradicate it.
After the thistles have made a fair
growth (and perhaps the nearer blos-
soning time the better), give them q
liberal dose of salt in the morning
when thoroughly wet with dew. Do
not NOV them off before applying
the salt, but apply to the entire plant.
If this is properly done the thistles
will be dead inside of twenty-four
hours. 5
AS some may not be hit the first
time, subsequent applications Of the
salt should be made. With a little
care large patches can be completely
Ieradicated in a few days. Remember
one thing: Don't NOW of the thistles

Above is a tab1uation of the straw
votes already cast in the Pioneer

appears to be the most popular
choice but is pushed hard by La Fol-

cast is that nearly every one that is
cast for Roosevelt or Wilson carries
La Toilette as second choice and
those cast for La Toilette carry
Roosevelt or Taft as second choice.
AS Wilson is running as a Democrat,
it appears that the people see but

Bagley, Feb. 24-The fire which
destroyed six buildings here early
yesterday morning is believed to have
started in the meat shop Of Gilbert
Olson, cause unknown. From there,
It spread in both directions and SO
rapidly that it seemed for time
that the entire business section of
the town would be wiped out. The
hotel was saved by the good work of
the f1remen and by having one va
cant lot between it and the next
building. The fire wall of the Bag
ley Mercantile company kept the
blaze from burning that store and
possibly jumping the street.
AT one time, the Clearwater hotel
is said to have been doomed but the
prompt work of the department. saved
it. The plant of the Bagley-Ogema
Telephone company was total loss
but Jones and son, publishers of the
Bagley Herald" managed to save
enough of their plant to complete
the publication of their paper this
