VILLAGE HIRES A MANAGER

NEW YORK, July 5.-River Forest,
Illinois now has a business manager
Karl M. Mitchell having been elected
to that place by the Village board.
The new manager will have entire
charge of the public affairs of the vii
lage. He win direct the police force,
handle the street work, and run the
schools--in fact, control the entire vii.
lage administration. He will be re
sponsible to- the village board, but will
take no orders as to how he shall carry
on his office. -
River Forest is the third municipality
in the United States to put in force the
idea of business manager. The other
two are in the South. In some respects
it is the idea of commission government
carried to final conclusion. Instead
of five or. three men conducting the
city's affairs, one man has virtually all
the authority. -

Along Upper MIssippi.

oQUAWKA, H., Sept. 29.-The
state of Illinois will open = state ex-
perimental farm on 20 acre tract Of
sand land next spring near Oquawka.
1t has long been the expectation of
the state department. to try out some
experiments on the reclamation of the
sand wastes along the upper Missis-
sippi river, but it was not until the
past year that the work took active
form and resulted in the selection OF
Henderson county as the place for
the experiment.
State Superintendent of Experimen.
tai Farms o. s. Fisher and Assistant
Superintendent G. A. Campbell were
at Oquawka last week and completed
the surveying Of the farm into fifth
acre plats. Upon these plats will be
begun a series Of six-year rotation OF
crops with view to building up the
soil and bringing 1t into a productive
condition. The sand land selected is
not black sand, but jury merely sand.
The character of the land may be bet
ter understood when It is known that
the surveyors found 1t necessary to
purchase and wear heavy leggins as
a protection against the sand burs
growing upon the field. The results
will be watched with interest by the
people of Mercer county
