WANTED

1000 Shirts a week to laundry and
why not? This town alone ought to
produce nearly that number and
surely with the amount OF work we
are receiving from out of town 1t
ought to be an easy matter to reach
this mark. Our present record is
739. leaving a balance, 261 to make
up.
Now, to those that send their
shirts to the wash woman or have
them done at home we will say that
your shirts will last enough longer
and look enough better to more than
pay the extra cost as we never fade
the color and we iron them so they
fit when you put them on.
And to those who go to the chink
because his price is less we will say
that your work is costing you more
than II would II you had IL done here.
And to those of you who are send
ing your work out of town we will
say you are paying more and not get
ting any better work and not as good
service for we are doing just as good
work as any laundry large or small
and better than most. And we are
paying out here in your town for
help, rent, taxes. electric power,
gass, etc, about $4,000 a year.
How much do you get out OF the
chink OF the out of town laundry to
help support your town.
Think II over and then help to
make up the balance of 261 shirts,
as the 1000 mark is what we are
aiming for and what We have got to
reach to make the Bennington SAM
tary Laundry a paying business.

VEGETABLE OILS

There are various oils to adulterate
linseed oil, but we are not aware Of any
oil that will take its place, or even
add anything to its value. 1t seems
that linseed oil is the only one that
has ever been found that possesses the
proper drying qualities to secure the
results desired. Whatever is added to

Early Fargo Newspapers.
The impetus for the first Fargo

Fargo who gave his name to the

dollars to anyone who would print
and publish the first newspaper in the

publication of the Fargo Express on
Jan. !, 1874. The Fargo Mirror was
published by i. S. Tyler in the same
year. These two papers soon became
the Times. The Times was bought
and changed to the Republican by
Maj. A. w. Edwards and Dr.. j. B.
Hall in 1878. On NOV. II of the fol-
lowing year Maj. EIWards launched

From a Small Beginning.
In 1903. Mr. Miller, WHO is now the
park superintendent and also does the
planning and developing, came TO Far
90 to look after the parks. Very little
Of his time, however, was then spent
for the CITY He was allowed to do
outside work. But about three years
ago MI. Miller began to devote his en-
tire time to the parks, and 1t is from
that date that Fargo parks really
trace their growth.
How Controlled.
The parks of the city are under con.
troll and governed by b0arl Of five
members, known as the Park Com
mission, and elected by the city.
These men serve for five years, one
elected each year, without pay. The
board meets once Il month to talk
over things that nav arise and take
such action as NAV at the time fall I'M
Ter their supervision.
The Park Funds.
This park commission has power to
levy park assessment Of three mills
or less. and also has full police power
not only of the park property but all
adjoining property within one hundred
feet. The park fund for mqlniain-
ance and development of the park is
derived from this source being "1C,:t

AT a farmers institute not long ago
the question was asked: How many
housewives havcAsilu&? Yen can very
easily 'guecs the nature OF the replies
to this question, fer none OF these
present had mitch o. an idea what Il
silo really is. &fter Il short cHEiana'
lion it was agreed that nearly every.
enc present in REALTY had Il silo OF
some kind. Some CT these were used
for saving fruits, corn. and others for
preserving cabbage fer future use.
We don't really speak of these as
silcs, but the effect on the saving Of
these beds when placed in jars is the
same as it is with Germ when stored
in the sjlo: in other words. silage is
green corn preserved by storing in an
alright structure
There probably arc very few farmer
boys that do not remember some rainy
day ol' evening when all hands got
busy preparing the cabbage to fill the
kraut jar. Probably 10 thought was
given the subject because it was a
yearly task, and no one realized that
in effect the saving Of the cabbage by
making it into kraut is the same as
making corn silage 1t undoubtedly

Reply to J. c. Tally, Stevenson, Ala.
Drainage comes first, if the land
needs it, and tile drainage is the mod
ern and sensible way Of draining. If
the soil is low in humus, stable manure
or vegetable matter must be added:
if it is lacking in one Or more of the
elements of plant food, these must be
supplied in commercial fertilizer,
stable manure and legumes; if 1t Is
sour, an application Of lime is nee
essary; if the soil is compact and there
is a hard pan, deep blowing must be
done. But if it needs drainage, stable

Fo. Winter Sport.
At the north end Of the park
where Broadway enters the old river
bed is still very low AMI marsly. The
lower end is blocked by the fill for
the street crossing forming a pond OF
several acres. In The winter months
this pond is filled with water and
flooded occasionally. forming most
excellent skating rink. A warming
shanty was constructed, but it soon
became too small and was therefore
disposed OF. but plans are now under
