WATCH SCHOOL CONDITIONS

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. &c. G.
Schulz, state superintendent of pub
instruction, last week sent out ques-
tions to teachers to ascertain the
health conditions in 1900 school
buildings in 500 school precincts in
Minnesota
The new questions refer, to the
sanitation, light, ventilation and
heating appliances of the high,
grade and consolidated school build
ings, and follow set of queries sent
out some time ago relating to the
health conditions of the students and
their personal habits with view to
gathering information that might
corrupt many of the causes of sick
ness among them.
Among the questions asked of the
teachers by the state superintendent
are these:
Have you a mechanical system OF
ventilation?
"AoI A1OoAS w yOu nave VI uu-
modifying the air?
Do you furnish trirty cubic feet OF
air per pupil per minute?
How near the ceiling and the floor
do the windows extend?

school room is prism glass?
Do you use dustless oil on the
floors? ~ .--.. =. = - =. - -

How many bubbling fountains has

How often are your rooms swept?

Do the window shades roll from

Opaque shades or translucent?
How many rooms are lighted from

Have Shipped In Steadily and Will
Operate Plant Until Weather
Is Unfavorable.
W00DsMEN ARE COMING IN
Start Arriving From Dakota Harvest
Felds-Claim Their Wages
Were High.

Flying snow Ills morning served
notice on the lumber companies that
their time for saving is limited and
that they will have to shut down
soon. At the Crookston mill it was
announced this morning that the sea-
son cut would probably be completed
by election day. The Bemidji mill
expects to run as long as the wealth
er is favorable as they have been
shipping logs in steadily.
Few who saw the large number of
logs in the lake this spring believed
that they would all be sawed in one
season but the Crookston mill men
say that there is about one million
left in the lake at this time and that
these logs will be made into lumber
in about one week. The Crookston
cut this year is said to be about
equal to that of last year although
the mill ran three weeks less time.
In order to care for the new size
logs which will be sent out from the
woods this winter, an addition is to
be built on the north end OF the mill.
The logs will be sent out of the
woods twice the size they have been
in the past and in the addition to
the mill will be cut in half before
they are placed on the carriers for
saving. The logs will be cut just
after they come up the hoist from the
pond.
B. w. Lakin, who has charge of
the logging department of the Crook
ston company, says that the three
new steam skidders have been ship
ped and are expected to be- here COM
plete in a few days. One of the
skidders has already arrived but has
not yet been set up. The three will
be used in the woods this fall for
the first time. -.
The steam skidders make it pos
sible to take double sized logs out of
the woods. These are then cut in
half at the mill and the operation
saves considerable expense. The
steam skidders operate over an area
of 1000 feet on each side of the cen
ter road and give a crew a wider
range of operation than they have
had heretofore. ..-s
Men for the woods have started
coming in numbers and the Great
Northern last night reported about
fifty as having come from the -Da-
kota harvest fields via Grand Forks.
The men are signing up with en-
ployment agencies about as fast as
they arrive and the Red Lake and M.
& I. lines are daily carrying large
numbers to the way stations.
George Hook, of Blackjack, was
one of the men who came in last
night and he says that they left the
harvest fields Sunday night and that
it showed heavily Monday morning.
He says that 900 men left Langdon
Monday morning and that box and
refrigerator cars were pressed into
service to carry them to Grand Forks.
The men who have come in from
the harvest fields say that wages
were high this year, varying from
1926 to 1878 per day, and that the
scarcity of men insured good treat
ment to those who went out.

GOOD NOVELS THROWN IN

has calculated that the serial novels

resent a saving of from SIS to $1S to

out it.
"No other large city daily" he con-
tinues, print SO much of the best
new fiction, in addition to all the
news of the day. Not counting the in
Vulnerable short stories in the Sunday
Magazine of the Record Herald, that
magazine prints yearly at least four
serial novels by some of the best pop
ular authors-Rider Haggard, Conan
Doyle, Louis Tracy, George Gibbs,
Jeffrey Farnol and others in that class.
Then in the body of the paper there is
nearly always another good serial,

means complete new novel every

books of high-class fiction in q year.
