WlTnORAWS FROM
SHORT SHIP CIRCUIT

At the meeting of the Nicollet Coun'
ty Agricultural Society held recently
in St. Peter at Treasurer Jackson's
Office it was voted to withdraw from
the Southern Minnesota Short Ship
Circuit. The association faces de-
ficit which may run up to $3.50. 1t
is hoped to decrease expenses by with.
drawing from the circuit and thus
escape the heavy drain due to the
harness races. It was also agreed
to raise the general admission fee
from rs cents to so cents.
This, it is expected, will increase the
receipts to such an extent that no
new deficit will stare the directors
in the face.
The following officers and board OF
directors were reelected:
]. NJ. Turner, Oshawa, president !:
]. H. Nutter, Traverse, first vice-pre-
sident; James Randolph, Kasota, Sc.
cond vice-president, John c. Hulett,
St. Peter, secretary, and c. H. jack
son. St. Peter, treasurer. The direc-
tors are as follows: Geo. W. Studley
and o. J. Duane, St. Peter; Paul Nc
Dermott and Fred Manske, Kasota;
Henry Fahning, Sharon; Henry Lam
pert, Washington; Fred. Leath, Cleve-
land: Martin Schwartz, Ottawa; JOS.

MATTHEWS CONTESTS
JUDGE OlSEN'S ELECTION

NJ. E. Mathews, the defeated candi.
date for judicial honors has demanded
a recount, which really does not
come as a surprise, in view of the
rumors that were current immediate.
ly after it became definitely known
that he had been defeated by small
margin. In speaking of this appeal
the News-Messenger of Marshall, says:
Thursday afternoon Robert He'll
mann, who was one of the supporters
of Mr.. Mathews candidacy for the
Office of District Judge at the gen
eral election, not being satisfied
with the close vote, and at the in
stance of many friends, filed an an
peal for a contest, with Clerk OF
Court Bumford. which was served on
Judge l. NJ. Olsen at the close of the
district court. AS we understand it
the appeal is made to the District
Court of Lyon County from the de
cision of the state canvassing board
which decided in favor of the cleo
ton of T. NJ Olsen. The Governor
will be notified of the appeal, and
it will become necessary for him
to appoint Judge from some other
judicial district to hear the contest
which hearing must be set within
thirty days from the date of the
decision of the state board, which
was made on November q. Each
contestant Is allowed to choose one
person to act on the committee tt
inspect the ballots, and the two chos
en- will select one other. making q
committee of three, who will 60 tc
the auditors offices of the various
counties and personally examine and
recount the ballots cast at the last
general election. In connection with
the appeal, the question of the citizen
ship of Judge Olsen has been raised
inasmuch as no record of natural
ization can be found, and this matter
is also being brought to the atten
ton of the District Court as one of the
grounds Of the appeal.
There have been doubts expressed
as to the irregularities of the past
election, and of the count, and II
should be the interest of every electOr
in the district to see to it, where they
know of illegal voting. that such votes
should not be allowed to count for
either candidate.
The results of this contest will
be watched with interest, the official
count being so close. AS the count
now stands, Mr.. Olsen has 104 MAORI
ty A change of fifty-three votes from
Mr.. Olsen would elect Mr.. Mathews.
In the district, there are 1877 precincts,
and it is not unlikely that one or more
votes will be thrown out of each, in
the recount which would make ma.
terial difference in the result, and
might favor either candidate.

Prof. A. Ackermsnn of the college
appeared before the Council at their
last regular monthly meeting and in
cidentslly reminded them of the
promise Of a cement sidewalk on Gen.
tor Street which the college should
have had before now. His main
reason for appearing however was to
protest against the excessive charges
for minor repairs to their electrical
switchboard such as the blowing out of

but up.to.date this had been persis.

finally referred to the proper COM
mittee.
The committee which investigated
the low pressure turbine at Virginia,
MINI. filed their written report.
Although favorably impressed with
this style of engine, the gentlemen
we're not ready to recommend the pur-
chase OF turbine for our plant, but
they did recommend that further in
vestigation be made. City Clerk

necessary to adequately equip our

On account of the numerous COM
plants that are pouring In because
several. OF the, cross streets south of
Center Street are fenced off and closed

and it was discovered by an examina-

Spring street between Seventh and
Sixteenth South Streets and those
portions OF Eighth, Ninth, Tenth,
Eleventh, Twelfth, Fifteenth and
Seventeenth South Streets had been
vacated at the time the NJ" & st. l..
was built. City Attorney Somsen was
requested to take up the matter with
the railroad company and secure their
consent to have Tenth South Street
opened for traffic at this time.
The committee on electric light was
given full authority to erect shed
near the station to store the supplies
of the plant, it having been reported
that no suitable storage room could
be secured. The contemplated i'm.

The currant worm makes 1t appear
ance as soon as warm weather sets
in.
Pears should not be cultivated. Best
to keep them in grass after the fourth
year.
Hellebore is excellent for the de-
struction Of slugs, worms and cater
pillars.
Growing grains or allowing stock to
pasture in the orchard is not good
orcharding.
SCOT busted on melon plants when
the leaves are wet with dew discour-
ages insects.
For most fungous and insect enc
mics spraying is prevention rather
than a remedy.
The presence Of the currant borer
may be known by the leaves withering
and turning yellow.
Tools to be used in cultivating the
orchard should be determined by the
kind of soil in the orchard.
Experienced growers do not pick
berries for market when the fruit is
wet, and they keep the crates in a
cool place. out Of the sun.
Surplus suckers in raspberries or
red raspberry patches should be treat
ed just like weeks. leaving only enough
shoots for next years fruiting.

be no canes more than four years old.
The red raspberry is propagated by
shoots which grow up from the roots,
One-year-old shoots are preferable for
planting. The rows should be at least
three feet, apart, with the plants two
feet apart in the row. Frequent and
thorough cultivation is necessary to
keep down the suckers which grow
from the roots. It is a good plan TO
plow the ground between the rows
every spring.
The blackcap requires summer prun-
ing. The tips should be pinched on as
soon as the shoots get to be two feet
high, in order to induce side-branch-
ing. II these side-branches grow too
long, pinch them back Allow no canes
higher than six feet. In the spring
reprune. cutting out weak and ex-
cessive growth.
Black raspberries do not send up
root shoots. They are propagated by
burying the tips of the shoots in the
ground some time in August. These
take root and produce new plants.

ing spring. The black raspberries are
more rank in their habits OF growth
and should be planted further apart
than the red varieties. Planting every
three feet apart is a good distance.
They should receive thorough culti-

The location of the hives is matter
OF considerable importance. As rule
It is better for hives to face away
from the prevailing wind and be pro-
tected from high winds. In the north,
a south slope is desirable. II is adTis-
able for hives to be so placed that the
sun will strike them early in the morn
ing. so that the bees become active
early in the day, and thus gain an ad-
vantage by getting the first supply Of
nectar It is also advantageous to
have the hives shaded during the hot
test part Of the day, so that the bees
will not hang out in front of the hive
instead of working, They .sb ould be so
placed that the bees will not prove a
nuisance to passers-by or disturb live
stock. This latter precaution may
save the beekeeper considerable
