]. ]. HILLS ADDRESS
Several Thousand Hear Empire Builder
Saturday Afternoon

Saturday Afternoon
James J. Hill and party arrived in
Sank Centre Saturday at 2 O'Clock,
and were taken directly to the fair
grounds where DR. J. A. Dubois in
troduced him in BETTING manner.
In the course of his remarks Mr.. Du-
Bots stated that if the farmers of
Stearns county would follow the adj
vice offered by Mr.. Hill the form pro-
ducts of the county would show an
annual increase of at least 100000
per year. The Sank Centre man re-
ferred to Mr.. Hill as the agricultural
philanthropist. This sobriquet was
given him year ago by Mayor Nc
Gibbon and pleased the venerable cap
italist immensely. y
Several thousand people were in
front of the grand stand when the
head of the Great Northern system
started to speak. Mr.. Hill
devoted his address entirely to the
farmers. He said that in going into
the development of agricultural in
the Northwest the Great Northern
were actuated by personal motives,
because increased yield on the farms
meant more business for the trans
portation companies. For years the
farmers had been taking the life out
of the soil without returning the life
giving properties necessary to main

Buried in Sank Centre

r. O. Hall, former resident of

and settled on farm south of town,
afterwards removing to a farm be-
tween this city and Grey Eagle, died
in Detroit, Minnesota, Sept. 14th, of
cancer of the stomach.
Mr.. Hall was born in New York
state in 1874, and was SO years old at
the time of his death.
He was twice married, his first wife
died seven years ago and was inferred
In Sank Centre. He was. again mar
ried at Baraboo, Wisconsin, six years
ago.
Funeral services were held in De-
troit the Kew. F. H. Oehler formerly

tain 1t. He said that nature was very
jealous of her bounties and where the
soil was neglected and abused she de-
manded the penalty in the shape Of
reduced yield. Mr.. Hill urged the
raising Of the dual purpose cow on the
farm, regardless of the so-called ex-
perts. He claimed that the Royal
Stockgrowers Association whsch had
been in existence in England for over
100 years had long since demonstrated
that the cow which could be used
either for milk or beef purposes was
the most profitable animal to raise.
He stated that the Great Northern
would go into alfalfa raising next
year extensively, and predicted that
after the Northwestern farmer be-
came acquainted with the possibilities
of this crop they would raise it with
profit. Besidts being source of Ger
tain revenue alfalfa puts back into
the soil the properties taken out by
grain. He dwelt upon the necessity
of fertilization at some length.
Mr.. Hill claimed that every
time farmer sold load Of grain he
was sellisg a portion of his soil, and
that hesihust go into stock-raising ex-
tensiyely, feed the grain. on the farm
in order to secure fertilizer, disc his
land before blowing, plow as early in
the fall as possible, disc again in the
spring and thoroughly drag before
seeding and continue to drag until the
grain was two Or three inches high,
before he could secure the best posi-
BILE yield from his land.
Mr.. Hill is an exponent of scientific

There is no conflict between Gov.
Eberhart and others fayoring public
utilities, and any good law taking in
all utilities will meet with his appro-
baton.
The governor has long taken an &C
tive interest in the advancement of
the educational system in the rural
districts and he devoted a portion OF
his time to this subject.
The state officers were turned over
to the Commercial Club in the even
ing, and they were rendered an in
formal dinner at the City Hall under
the auspices of the club at 7 o'clock.
The dinner was served by the Ladies
of St. Paul's Catholic church. The
committee had asked for a plain fried
chicken supper and the ladies demon
strated not only to the state officials
but the members of the club and their
ladies, that they are high grade cooks
and the service was everything the
most critical could wish. Plates were
laid for 100.
Dinner out of the way DR.. Fl. L.
Lamb introduced the POSTMASTER of
the evening, Asa M. Wallace, He
first called upon DIR. Henneman, pres
ident of the Commercial Club who
very graciously extended the welcome
of the city to the state officers and
assured them that the citizens of
Sank Centre appreciated the honor
conferred upon them by this visit.
Every visiting official was called to
account and responded happily DR..
Dubois and Hon. Frank Minette be-
ing the other local speakers. Gov.
Eberhart demonstrated that he is a
very clever after-dinner speaker. He
took several falls out of the editor of
the Herald, as did the other speakers,
which were relished by the home folks
Following the dinner the club mem
bers gave the officials a smoker" at
the club rooms, and they left for St.
Paul decidedly under the impression
that Sank Centre was strictly on .the
map.
Judging by universal comment of
Sank Centre folks nothing has been
pulled off in the city for years that
was more pleasing or of more benefit
to the city than the visit of the state
officials and they will always find the
glad hand awaiting them on any re-
turn visit.

FAIR BREAKS ALL
PREVIOUS RECORDS
Long List of Splendid Exhibits
and Attractions Please Thous-
ands of Sightseers.
LARGE OUTSIDE DELEGATIONS
Snug Balance Will Remain After
ALI Bills are id.---Congratu-
lations in Order.

Well, the Stearns County fair for
1913 is now matter of history.
Believe me it was some fair.
Never before was the attendance as
large as this year
AS an exhibition of the possibilities
Of Stearns county in nearly every line
Of endeavor it was magnificent sue
cess, while the amusement program
was varied enough to suit the most
critical
The crowds which thronged the
grounds and the city streets in the
evening were very orderly and the
chief of police and his assistants are
to be congratulated upon the splendid
order preserved.
The cash receipts of the fair were
very satisfactory, much larger than
at any previous fair. The secretary
office is busy figuring up she total re-
ceipts and expenditures. 1t is GER
tain that after paying for the i'm
proyements made by the association
this year snug balance will be left.
The success attained this year is a
striking demonstration of what unit
ed effort along any given line will &C
complish. Mayor John McGibbon,
president of the Agricultural Associ-
alton and Ben F. Dubois, secretary,
have accomplish ed wonders, and are
entitled to no end of credit, but with
out the united assistance Of every
member of the association and citi-
Zens generally their efforts would
have been minimiZed.
The weather man helped and dish
ed out three Of the finest days possi-
BILE and found no where else than
Minnesota, which aided materially.
The fair was credit to the state,
Stearns county and the hustling citi-
zens of Sank Centre. There is glory
enough for all in the results achieved.
The only difficulty about last weeks
fair is that the standard set is very
high and the management for next
year have their work cut out for
them. The fair cannot stand STILL. it
must 60 either forward or backward.
Only the possibilities of future great
ness was realized last week. 1t is
none too early even now to commence
to boost for a bigger and greater fair
next year.
The City of Sank Centre has duty
to perform in connection with the
fair. A number of new buildings are
needed and needed badly, while sever
al of the others should be enlarged to
properly house the exhibits. The
Herald believes that any reasonable
expenditure the city dads make look
ing to the improvement and enlarge
ment Of the fair will be endorsed by
the people.
William WEIGH a farmer living near
Westport came into the fair Saturday
afternoon, purchased Season Ticket
No. 2083 and drove the Ford touring
car home in the evening. This event
attracted considerable interest all ov-
er the county.
In the last analysis Sank Centre as
a whole has right to be trifle chesty
over the outcome of last weeks ex
hibition.
