We're stumps before is the real bene-
factor Of the human race. Further
more, the man WHO shows how to
blow stumps with less dynamite than
1t has been customary to use is a ben
efactor in slightly different way.
Yesterday, representatives of the
DUPONT Powder company gave DEM
onstration at Fowlds of proper way
to blow stumps. About one-third of
the amount of dynamite was used
that the farmers who had gathered
at the Mackey farm thought neces-
sary. The demonstrators were able
to show that results depend upon
other things than quantity only when
dynamite is working.
Thousands of acres of .Beltrami
county are covered with stumps
Other thousands are partly swamp
lands which need bitches for drain
ing: The stumps can be blown and
the bitches dug with dynamite if
the charge is properly placed. I'm

The Lake Shore.

Even a few stones which mark the
limits of the path improve the ap-
pearance of the lake shore at the foot
of Third street. When the plot is
covered with lawn and spotted with
flower beds, it will be a place of
beauty and delight.
On the other side of the dock, con-
ditions have not been improved as
yet although Captain MacLachlan
has promised that he will remove his
skids, old boats, waste, etc., within a
few days. With the lake shore at
the foot of Third street cleaned up
and beautifed, Bemidji people need
not be ashamed to take visitors down
to the lake. -.

= Boom for Judge Hallam.

II! Judge Oscar Hallam of St. Paul,
is being doomed for the nomination
for justice of the supreme court at
the state convention in st. Paul July
2. Judge Hallam has been district
judge for eight years, succeeding the
late Judge Jaggard in Ramsey coun-
ty when he went to the supreme
court. The friends of Judge Jaggard
have decided to present Judge Hal
lam's name to the convention for
nomination as the successor on the
supreme bench of Judge Jaggard. At
present, Judge Bum, Democrat, is
sitting on the supreme bench.
Judge Hallam is said to be one of
the strongest district judges in the
state and has been practically unani-
mously reelected at each election.
He is well known in the central and
southern part of the state and his
friends believe that on the supreme
bench he would show the same capa-
bility that he has in district court.

How to Check Habit Difficult
Problem That Needs
T. Solving.
By HARRY WARD.

or all the pehls that beset motor
lists, particularly in large cities, none
equals the small boy. and none Is 80
numerous. How to subdue his habit
Of playing in the public street long has
been considered a problem the solu-
tion of which is difficult, II not i'm
possible.
In an effort to save the youngsters
from themselves. however, the Amerl-
can Museum of Safety. which exists to
conserve human nfe," and which Is
at present located in New York, has
undertaken a course OF lectures with
q view not only of keeping tho young
ones OF the streets, but of teaching
them how to avoid accidents In cross
ing streets.
The FIRST lectures were given in the
rooms OF the museum by the wife OF
tho director Of the institution, but per-
mission of the educational authorities
having been obtained dozen New York
schools were recently visited. The lee
tures are free and are open alike TO
adults and children. They are illus
trated by diagrams. chalk drawings.
and lantern slides, and have been at
tended by upward Of 1000 children. Dur
ing the summer the schools of New
Jersey were covered, and II Is believed
that as u result OF the lectures the pro-
portion Of accidents to pedestrians de-
creased 10 per cent during the last three
months.
This is a step in the right direction.
and motorists will hail with delight any
movement inaugurated In this city that
will tend TO prevent children from using
the streets as Il playground. The habit
OF many children on roller skates CATCH
ing hold OF rapidly moving automo-
biles Is a dangerous one, and steps
should be taken to break 1t up. When
accidents result from this habit the
motor car driver Is nearly always
blamed. though in many instances he
Is ignorant OF the fact that child

BUYERS Now Demand

agent for Overland and Garford cars
and Gramm trucks. THE buyer de-
mands real value and goes to the very
heart Of fundamentals In his search

This condition naturally has made
for a higher type OF salesmanship as
the generalities of the past no hold
water and after the purchaser has been

# MOTOR TRUCKS
CO TOO FAST THEY:
WEAR OUT QUICKLY
Speed Hurts More Than
Overlooking or Long
Service.

Running motor trucks at high speed
wears them out much more rapidly than
overloading or running them twenty
four houra a day." says a well.posted
motor truck salesman.
1T is not surprising to me that motor
trucks go to ruin as fast as they do
for they are not built to be driven at
the speed OF a touring car, and the
average truck driver is just as crazy
about speed as is the motor car tester.
They all seen to have mania for
getting over the ground as fast as
they can. and owners Of trucks may
have encouraged this desire for speed
by urging their drivers on to making
trips In record time.
"They are as much to blame as the
drivers. and when their trucks begin
to show signs of wear they blame the
manufacturer, who has undoubtedly
built the best truck he knows how.
'I have watched trucks speeding over
the rough streets In a number OF cities
and I am glad to see a number OF the
builders are now using a device to limit
the speed. II Is known as an auto
matte governor and engineers as well
as buyers asre that It Is going to do
as buyers agree that II Is going to do
trucks than any other one detail.
These governors OF the speed are
so designed that the owner can limit
the miles per hour to whatever speed
he desires and then lock the governor
at that point Many makers advise set
ting Il at twelve miles an hour. This
speed may seem a little slow. but not
when one considers that a load from
one to five tons is being hauled over
various sorts OF streets and roads.
Keeping the speed down to a twelve
mile limit means that the truck will
always be In service unless accidents
put II out OF commission.
This constant service idea should ap-
peal to the prospective buyer and truck
user much stronger than the extra
three or four miles an hour. 1t insures
the man who owns the truck against
Its destruction by needless and speed
loving drivers"
