Mammoth PIGEON Cote.

Max Katz of Oasge, ILL.,, has the
largest pigeon cote in the country.
He has about $4,000 pigeons at the
present time, and six pickers are
kept constantly busy preparing
squads for the market. He says he
started in a very small way. His
cote occupies space l2O0x600 feet.
Running water supplies all the
coops, and forty bushels of corn are
fed for a meal. Each pair of old
birds will raise pair of squads
every four or six weeks. Every one
knows what dainty lunch a SQUAD
with a bottle of golden grain belt
beers will make. Order of Sjobolm
Bros, Princeton.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

Z Z
! Aulger Rines and I. G. Patterson
have opened a general store in Town
sends hotel, Milaca, and are doing a
rushing business.
Reports from Milaca indicate that
the connecting link of the Manitoba
system, between that point and
Brainerd may be built this season.
1t is to be hoped that the sidewalk
on the north side Of First street will
be completed from Main street to
the depot before the rainy weather
sets in. TX
! Several sportsmen from ST. Paul
and other points were on hand
bright and early Monday morning
and slaughtered scores of prairie
chickens. .r....
Pete Anderson of Elk River was
last week fined $50 for beating his
wife. Anderson is quarrelsome old
rascal and the prevailing opinion
among his neighbors is that he ought
to be locked up. ~. F..
The 18th of August wasn't on Sun
day this year. Monday was the 18th
and chickens were ripe on that day.
This in answer to the queries of
several farmer friends. The Prince
ton sportsmen all attended divine
service last Sabbath.
Rev. w. NJ. Jenkins of Elk River
preached to thin houses at the Con-
gregational church, morning and
evening, last Sabbath. The scribe
had the pleasure of listening to the
reverend gentleman's morning dis
course and was quite favorably i'm
pressed with his style of preaching.
1t is laughable to read in the
down-river papers that every little
scurry of rain which falls is bound to
bring down the logs in the Rum
river. Why, in the last four months
there has not fallen rain enough in
the Rum river valley to raise the
stream the one-sixteenth part of an
inch.
Three Isanti county citizens have
been languishing in the Mora jail
the past week for committing mid
night depredations around the
premises of Doc Williams in the
town Of Brunswick. They threw
ashes in his well and broke up some
articles of furniture.
Overseer Pratt has ordered out a
number of men in the village dis
trict to work on the roads. The
roads are in splendid shape in every
district in the town save in the vii
lage district and in the district i'm
mediately west of the village. Every
foot of highway in the town should
be put in good condition this fall.
It is the duty of every farmer in
western Minnesota this season to see
that not a spear of hay goes to
waste. Already Wisconsin, Iowa and
eastern Minnesota farmers are MAX
ing inquiries for hay to winter their
stock: the dry weather in these To-
calities having completely destroyed
the crop, and hay this fall will be
worth it's weight in gold.

Murder Not Always
Result of Wild Impulse.

1t is a shock to many people to
know there are professional assas-
sins in our land.
Many good people had believed
that murder was always, in these
days, the result of some wild i'm
pulse-of drunkenness, or jealousy,
of anger, of self protection or in
sanity.
1t seems almost incredible that
men who are not moved by any of
these emotions are to be found
banded together ready to kill any
one for a stated sum of money
and a paltry sum comparatively.
Now that such men have been
found and are held by the law for
trial, 1t would help the students of
eugenics to learn something Of the
prenatal and early childhood con-
ditions from which those men came
1t would be worth while to appoint
committee to go about this search
for the desired information with as
great care as the detectives went
about the search for the criminals
There should be, indeed, such
committee, whose work is to look
up the pedigree for at least two
generations Of every man and wom-
an who becomes a criminal
Especially should the prenatal
conditions be learned when there is
any possibility of obtaining such
data
If there Is a bad piece Of road
where vehicles are broken and hu-
man beings injured, the causes

Courage
By REGINALD LUCAS.

nF all the boons the gods can give.
~ This one l ask and ask in vain,
Well satisfied if I might live
My life, as it was lived, again.
It's faults and failures I confess.
Of cares and griefs its ample store:
From evils past / shrink the less
As dreading future ills the more.
And yet this were the coward's part:
Go forward S our duty clear
The humble and the contrite heart
Knows not ingratitude or fear -
For this were mans most shameful Iot
To lie in an unhonored grave.
Even those who loved him daring not
To claim for him that he was brave.

World Needs a Better
Order of Things.

But 1t is not so much the con-
tinuance of the life of individuals
on earth which the world needs as
a better order of beings.
Every possible investigation into
heredity, prenatal influence, child
hoods environment and early as
sociations should be made, and the
information carefully classified and
presented to the world for consid-
Grafton.
The capital punishment of crtml-
nails will never reduce crime. But
the proper education Of men and
women on what fatherhood and
motherhood means will prevent the
birth of criminals.

than all other causes combined. She
is like Samson. With the jaw bone
of an ass she slays her thousands.
Take the woman, for instance,
who nags her husband about what
he shall eat, and what he shall
drink, and whether he shall smoke
or not. She thinks THAI when she
mentions these things to him
hundred times a day she is only
doing her wifely duty. She doesn't
realize that she is invading his sa-
cred liberty and insulting his iude-
ment every time she reminds him
that highly seasoned food Is bad for
his stomach and that he'll acquire
smokers heart from the use Of
pipe
Still less does she perceive the
effect of her nagging on her hus-
band. She doesn't realize that at
first he feels offended, then wor-
ried, then eXasperated; then he be-
gins to duck when he sees her get
ting ready to launch the old. dreary
familiar arguments against him.
And at last he comes TO hate her
with the deadly hatred that we feel
for those who subject us to petty
tyrannies against which there is no
defense.
II a woman is really opposed to
her husbands method OF eating and
drinking and smoking, she might
fight it out with him once; but
after that she had better let him

TUST at this particular juncture
several unfortunate men are
y being held prisoners for the de-
liberate planning OF the murder of
a fellow being in New York.
Other men implicated will no
doubt be added to the list before
this article appears.
The meanest and most despica-
BILE motive for crime in life is at
the bottom Of this dreadful and APP
palIing act-greed for gain.
Certain men desired to break the
laws of the land.
Certain other men were bought
who violated their oaths to pro-
tect those laws.
The law breakers were caught,
and they told the tale of buying
the silent cooperation of the law
protectors.
Then these law protectors DELHI
erately employed professional as
sassins to murder the man who be-
trayed their act.

Few Women Know Laws
Of Prenatal Influence.

Only a few women of the most
progressive order today know, or,
knowing, believe in, the laws Of
prenatal influence.
Not one poor woman of the I'M
educated classes in a thousand has
the least idea on this all-important
subject.
Yet butchers wife, who watched
the slaughter of animals before her
child was born, brought forth q
human monstrosity--a child crimi-
nal-who possessed an Unsuitable
desire to destroy life.
The child Of woman whose hus-
band was a miser and who COM
PEELED her to beg or steal pennies
from his pockets to satisfy her
hunger was born a thief, and went
through life a kleptomaniac.
Innumerable cases can be cited
Of the immediate results Of the
mental influence of the mother on
her unborn babe; and there is no
subject Of greater import for wom-
an to study than this.
The government would do well to
set aside a certain sum of money
to aid such Investigations for the
benefit Of the science OF eugenics.
And this present moment is
most appropriate one to begin these
Investigations.
Science is doing a great deal in
its effort to conserve and prolong
life.

Who loves mankind more than he loves himself,

is that, on the average, out of every
fifteen men and eight women past
35 years of age one surely possesses
the seeds of cancer, which will
eventually develop. 1t Is as if in
the room there were a fly having
an unerring sense enabling it to
detect the presence Of the undis-
closed cancer. The person on whom
that fly alighted would be the vic
tim designed by fate. All the
others might be perfectly safe be-
cause they did not bear the fatal
mark. But, according to the sta
tistics. there would in the long
average surely be ONE in every
such assemblage who would carry
the hidden insignia.
Sometimes the doctor can detect
the fatal blight or the probability
OF its existence, but generally even
he can know nothing about It until
the disease Visibly declares itself.
Then, if instant action is taken in
some cases Of external cancer he
can effect a cure with the aid of
the knife. The object of the spe-
cialists now is to find some remedy
which will act upon the disease
wherever it may be located. You
will read in the article to which |
have referred what has been done
with such means as radium and the
X-rays and certain chemicals. You
will also find there what has been

what would be the ultimate conse-
quences? The last of the major
diseases that shorten human life
and cause endless suffering would
have been conquered. This does
not mean that they would imme-
diately disappear, but there would
be good reason to hope that they
might all be eventually eliminated,
so that, after a time, death would
only occur either as a result of
accident or murder or of simple old
age. Men would live longer and
their lives would be relatively free
from suffering
What It Would Mean.
But would they be content even
with that condition? Not in the
least. The next effort would be still
further to prolong life. Then the
question would be seriously debat-
ed-as it has indeed already been
debated - whether death itself
might not be banished. 1t is not
in the nature of man to be content,
and his Creator did not intend that
he should be content. His wonder
