The problem Of farm labor was
discussed by Mr.. w. F. Schilling, the
well-known dairy farmer Of North
field. He gave instances from his ex-
perience and stated his belief that
with proper system and adjustment
Of the work, the problem Of help
could be solved. He believed farm
labor should be paid according to the
brains they put into their work, just
as in the other occupations.
In the employment of labor. he
said, it was his principle to pay cash
for brains. In other words, he was
willing to pay more for the man who
could apply intelligence to his work
than he would for a man who was
merely willing. On his farm near
Mortified, he insists on having his
COWS milked at in the morning and
at 5 in the afternoon. By this meth
cd the men are through at half-past
six.
"I don't want man who drinks -
said Mr.. Schilling. "For a good COW
won't associate with a man like
that" He urged shorter hours. say
ing if you work a man from IL to Is
hours he is at such a grind that he
can't think.
Calling attention to what dairvine
and good dairy COWS have done fo1
his section he said that Is years age
the bank deposits Of Mortified were
I$520,000 and today they are nearly
So, 100000, and nearly all the money
belongs to the farmers.
Mr.. Schilling offered the farmers 8
little advice outside Of the dairying
saying he stood not only for more
dairying, but for more children te
carry on the work Of the future. "I1
this age of horseless carriages anc
smokeless powder, we have too many
childless farmers" he said.
He thinks the milking Of COWS is
not above or below the girls of tn,
farm and that milking few COWS IL
a clean barn won't hurt them.
He would rather have his boys as
sociated with good cows than asso
ciating with some Of the compan,

ASBURY DESTROYED BY FIRE
Elevator, Lumber Shed and Coal
Shed Go Up in Smoke. -,

Asbury, the first station on the
Great Northern road north Of town,
and four miles from Granite Falls,
was almost entirely destroyed by fire
Thursday afternoon during the ex-
treme cold and high wind that pre-
vailed at that time.
The fire started in the coal shed
supposedly from a spark from the
engine of the north bound passenger
train, which went by at about half
past one, as Mr. Monson discovered
the fire in a coal bin few minutes
after the train passed. He did his
best to extinguish the flames, but the
high wind was too much for him and
soon the flames had caught in the
lumber yard and were beyond his
control. A general telephone alarm
was sent out to the farmers and they
hurried to his assistance, but nothing
could be done to save the imperiled
property and the coal sheds, lumber
yard and elevator were totally des-
troyed.
Mr.. Monson places the loss at
about $25, 900, but we have not learn
ed the amount Of insurance. The
property destroyed belonged to the
New London Milling company, with
the exception Of several gasoline en-
gines, which Mr.. Monson had for
sale. The depot and Mr.. Monson's
residence is all there is. left.
Nothing will be done as to rebuild
ing this winter, but work will COM
mence in the spring.-Granite Falls

Of the Asbury elevator is the son of
