AUDITOR SLOCUM BURNS OUT

International Falls, Jan. S.-Ffre
Friday night practically destroyed a
two-story building on Second street
belonging to County Auditor Slocum,
causing him a loss of $1,000 on the
building in addition to a personal
property loss, he occupying the sec
ond story as place of residence. The
storeroom downstairs was occupied by
the Bargain store, managed by Henry
Ottow, who states that lie carried a
stock of $4,000, the greater part of
which was damaged by either fire or
water. Mr.. Slocum carried no in
surance but the Bargain store stock
was protected by insurance to the
amount Of 1900.
The fire was first noticed by Mr.,
Nurick in the adjoining building and
when he discovered it the floor around
the stove of the store was burning.
The firemen were soon on hand and
after hard fight confined the fire to
the building in which it started, al
though another building joined it on
the north. The fact that the wind
was blowing from the northwest aid
ed the f1remen in keeping down the
loss.

A DAIRY BUSINESS GROWS WANTS A STATE AGENT
Governor Hanna, Of North Dakota,
Advises Legislature to Hire
Development Man.
NEEDS OUTLAY OF ABOUT $1,000

~ United 1rsss. # l -.s.--.
Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 8.-The sug-
gestion made by Governor Hanna that
the North Dakota legislature, which
convened this week, should create a
new position as business or Develop
ment agent of the state. is attracting
a great deal of favorable comment.
9s5 The governors idea is to have a
special representative of North Da-
kota take UP the question OF en-
|couraging and inducing manufacture
ers to locate In the state. 4
There are many undeveloped re-
sources, such as North Dakota's clay
and coal deposits. pottery and other
material, including the development
of high power and it's transmission,
the possibilities of the state for can
ming factories and many smaller en-
terprises that require introduction to
the manufacturers and others in the
eastern states. ~ 5.- /
North Dakota at present is practi-
cally dependent upon it's agriculture
alone and the general public has lit
tie information as to it's other re-
sources. $40 Z 49,.
If the governors plan goes through
he will have someone named who will
compile data along these lines, tabu-
late the wants and advantages of
every section of the state and present
them to he manufacturers of the east
ern cities.
1t is a movement that will appeal
to all sections of North Dakota and il
expected to receive the hearty sup
port of the members of the legislature
as it is planned to start in modest
way with probably an outlay of only
about $4,000 annually. One large
manufacturing enterprise secured
would more than make up this initial
cost. =
The governors message is now
ready to come from the hands OF the
printers and he has determined on the
appointments he will make, though Sc
far no public announcement has been
made of any except his private secre.
tary.
The governor plans to make his ad.
ministration noted for it's business
and economic methods and his inaug-
ural address bears strongly on these
points with many. suggestions for
constructive legislation. Z
| Being a successful business man
himself, Governor Hanna is expected
to effect some important changes in
the methods Of handling the states
affairs. !

tions promise a repetition Of the last
Iowa senatorial election and the
Lorimer election in Illinois.
Dean Thomas Sterling of Vermil-

opposed by some Republicans along
factional lines. Senator Robert J.

primaries, is in the race for re-elec-
ton, whilezthere are at least a dozen

of Aberdeen; Colonel Melvin T
Grigsby of Sioux Falls; Frank Crane
Of Pierre, retiring clerk of the SUI
preme court, ad infinitum. =.
Sterling's manager, S. w. Clark, OF
Redfield, claims enough votes pledged
to carry the election for Mr.. Sterling
on the first ballot, but many influen-
tial politicians claim to the contrary
All things considered, however
chances seem to favor Sterling, but
if he is not elected on the first ballot
,ne deadlock following will probably
prove lasting one, to be broken only
by dark horse, or the fusion of one
or other of the factions in the Re-
publican party with the Democrats.
Friends of Congressman Charles H
burke of Pierre, have mentioned him
as get-to-gether candidate for the
Democrats and Stalwart Republicans,
while the Progressives are opposing
any talk Of compromise and are stay
ing with Sterling.

More Than Double the Amount Of
Butter Made in 1899 w. Made
During 1911.
BIG AMOUNT PAID THE FARMERS
Special to Ths 1iouser.

Special to The Pioneer. e E M
| Some interesting dairy figures have
recently been gathered by H. J. Max
field, commissioner Of Immigration,
which show a. remarkable growth of
Minnesota's creamery industry, dur
ing the past twelve years. 81 confess
that I am surprised,v said Mr.. Max
field, "and believe that many of our
people will be when they learn that
Minnesota creameries have more than
doubled in the past twelve years. In
1899, Minnesota had $50 creameries,
and in 1911 she had j814 In 1899
our creameries manufactured 4 4,OO7,-
933 pounds of butter, against $685.
789 pounds IN. 1911.
Here is the most interesting and
important fact of all. In 1899,
$6,959,914.55 was paid out to our
farmers for butterafat,, against $22,-
3S1, 375.26 in 1911,Sor+a gain of $751;
|421,46O.71-more than three times
as much in 1911 as was paid out in
1899. luis of course is not due en-
tlrely to increased production, but
largely to advance in prices. -:
The advance in@price can best be
observed by comparing the average
price paid per pound for butter fat
in 1899, which was 17.5 cents against
l27.1S cents in 1911, an advance OF
about ten cents per pound. In 1899,
the creameries of this state had 49,
1s9 patrons, against 9O,704 in 1911.
l331,512 cows were supplying Mime
sofa creameries in 1899. against ia
31S in 1911. These two latter. cases
show substantial increase and both
have more than doubled.
The above figures we're taken from
the dairy and food commissioners re-
ports. The 1911 report shows that
Minnesota cows produced an average
of 1879 pounds Of butter each. The
lamount. received by each patronsaEer-
LACED $246.75. When we consider the
fact that Minnesota has many thou.
sans of acres of undeveloped land, all
of which are particularly adapted to
ldairying, her future as a dairy state
looks exceedingly bright, and I pre-
! dict that in the next ten years we
will again see this remarkable indus
try doubled.
The foregoing figures do not take
into account the value of cheese pro-
duced in Minnesota, nor the values
of the by-products of the dairy in
dustry. It is safe to say, that all OF
The dairy products of the state are
worth annually to the farmer $4O,-
OOO, 100000, outside of the indirect
value to agriculture by the keeping
of stock on the farm. :
Dairying is profitably carried on
| in older states, where land sells fol
much more than Minnesota land. II
dairying is profitable on 5000 land
it is necessarily much more profitable
in Minnesota on land that costs only
S25 to 1925 per acre. 80

Congressional Reapportionment.-

Congressional Reapportionment.-
In accordance with the new congress
sional reapportionment, Minnesota
! now has ten representatives in con-
gress, and it is the duty of this legis-
lature to reapportion the congression-
al districts of the state so as to pro-
vide for ten districts with as nearly
equal population as possible. T.
"Workmen's Compensation.-Dur-
ing the past few years the number
of accidents to employees in this state
has been very largely reduced, and
the department of labor is entitled to
much credit for it's efficient work in
connection Herewith. It is true, the
number must still be largely reduced,
but if it could be reduced to a very
small proportion of what it now is,
the necessity and demand for a work
mems compensation act will still re-
main. When a workman is injured,
the family and other dependents are
usually the greatest sufferers. The
time has come when industry must
bear it's proper share of the burden
and grant to the injured or his depen-
dents, whether he contributed to the
accident or not, fair and adequate
compensation for his loss of time and
injuries sustained. This ,compensa-
I ton should come to him as matter
of right and he should not be COM
PEELED to spend any portion thereof
in the courts to establish his claim.
The law should provide for simple
and inexpensive, yet effective, method
of determining the compensation and
the prompt payment thereof. This
would relieve the courts of a large
measure of litigation and the tax pay
ers of a heavy expense.
Regulation Of Woman and Child
Labor,-Under our present industrial
system women and children cannot be
excluded from labor in manufacturing
establishments, and it is, therefore,
necessary that their hours of labor
should be made as short as possible
and that they should be surrounded
with the best safeguards of health
and comfort. Child labor should be
reduced to a minimum. I, therefore,
recommend more stringent legisla-
ton for the protection of woman and
| children in the labor department
that the law may be strictly enforced
| throughout the state.
"Conclusion.-During my years of
service as governor, it has been my
constant endeavor to study the needs
of the state, that I might present
them to you intelligently and with
personal knowledge. The recommen-
dations are made after most careful
and earnest consideration for the best
ioterests of the entire state. In their
consideration l hope we can avoid
either factional or sectional contro-
versy acting only as representatives
of the people for the common good of
all. To merit the confidence and
goodwill of the people should be our
sole ambition. While we cannot era
dictate selfshness and attain perfec-
ton, we have right to require that
every official shall honestly and effic-
iently serve the people, and that in
the enactment of every law justice
shall be meted out to all without ia
| vor or discrimination. To that end
I pledge you my support and co-opera-
ton. f,4% 49, -Gs-.s

either vary a little, the result might
easily be only bizarre. Bright colors
are fascinating. They always appeal
to the sense of the primitive that is
inherent in every soul. They are
dangerous, nevertheless, and they
require skill in handling to give good
results.
n TO feature Of the gowns and the
IN jackets seems more remarkable
than the very general use Of
the kimono sleeves. They are emil
nentiy graceful. inherently beautiful
and they are the favorites Of the really
artistic few among designers. That they
should have gained so general a hold
seems something as a surprise, yet
they are here and here in a great
many interesting ways. Two gowns
that bear each a we'll known Partisan
name give evidence OF the prevailing
tendency and incidentally show how
color is handled at its best. One is of
red crepe in what is known as Jouy
design in blue or little flowers suggest
i've Of the cretonne effect. There is
plain full waist cut out to form
while kimono sleeves are shown. The
skirt consists OF somewhat elaborate
tunic, rather difficult to describe, but
the feature is the color effect. There is
a vide girdle Of black laid in plaits and
the tunic is bound with plain red
taffeta. The foundation skirt is of
black satin and the neck edge of the
blouse is outlined with a rather wide
frill Of plated white net finished with
a black velvet bow. The second IS

gown Of very soft and beautiful crepe
in a shade Of taupe and its trimming
consists Of embroidered conventional
lied roses. These roses might be in
spired by the Cubist idea They are
fat and formless and the color is Just
an unshaded brilliant red, modified
with white and with green leaves. Both
the red and the green are vivid but
against the taupe they make a good
effect. The work itself is interesting
for it is raised and gives somewhat
the effect Of an applied eponge. In
reality, it is executed by special ma
chine but similar effect could 30 easily
be obtained by using French knots
set close together that effects Of the
kind would not be difficult to obtain
at home. Both these gowns and a
third one Of Gobelin blue silk crepe are
made with kimono sleeves. The crepe
gown comes from the house of Callot.

at the slightly raised waist line while

beautiful lines and. strange as this
may seem in combination with present
effects, we surely shall welcome the
change when it comes. To be sure
there are beautiful possibilities in
fashions as they stand. 1t is the
extremes that are so hopelessly ugly
and unrehned; but it is easy to travesty
and easy TO overdo and. when over
done. they are hopeless. Just now we
have the question Of color to face and
TO discuss. We are to wear brilliant
hues. II they are rightly handled and
used with discretion, they give beau
tiful results but, in the hands Of the
unwary, they are a menace. A letter
from Paris received today asserts that
crushed strawberry Is draped with
corn color, that pale green may be seen
a. sash for sky blue, that oerise nous
seine may be superposed upon pink
and that all suxh effects are smart;
but the letter adds that the French have
such wonderful taste that the results
are never harsh or disagreeable, only
audaoious. Audacity is piquant, au-
dacity is interesting, but hardness
means pain, and it requires the artist
to obtain the one without the other.
