ANN ARBOR RAILROAD ESTAB-
LISHEs NEW DEPARTMENT.

A department of development. the
aim of which is to develop new lands
along its lines, and to make better
the land that is now being cultivated
by aiding in every way possible, has
been established by the Ann Arbor
and the Lake Superior railroads. An
nouncement of tails step is made in a
circular just issued by General Man
ager A. w. Towsley of the Ann Arbor
A. G. Weller will be at the head of
the department with offices at the
Cherry street station in Toledo.
Following is the part of the circu-
lar issued by Mr.. Towsley:
"The object in establishing this ae-
partment is to secure the greatest
possible development of the territory
served by the Ann Arbor railroad and
The Manistique and Lake Superior
railroad. The director OF the depart
ment will work in harmony with ov-
eryone who is interested in the de-
velopmert.
'Some Of the things which will be
undertaken are.

The September meeting of the Maple
River Farmers club was delightfully."-
entertained Thursday afternoon at the
beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs z. N.
Waugh, south of the city. Club mem.
bers and invited guests considered it
too rare a privilege to let pass by, go
all whose duties possibly could allow.
united in making the meeting at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Waugh one of
unusual interest. Some came in auto
mobiles and carriages, and others on
the electric car line. After alightiug
from the car at the Bennington road
and going distance of about one half
mile west, one comes in full view of
the pleasantly situated and beautiful
Waugh home. 1t is needless to say the
manner in which the guests are re.
ceiyed there gives ample assurance that
nothing has been left undone on the
part of the host and hostess to make
the meeting pleasant and enjoyable
one.
G. T. Cook called the meeting to,
order. Rev. G. 81. Hanks conducted
devotional exercises, which were fol.
lowed by roll call and reading of the
minutes by the secretary. Then the
program was taken up. Rev. J. G.
York in his usual good voice gave
vocal solo, and responded to an encore.
A. B. Cook told of his trip to Dakota
by automobile, and the lessons he
learned. His talk was enjoyed by all.
Mrs. J. G. York, who is an accomp.
lished singer, most beautifully rendered
a vocal solo, and responded to an en-
core. Mrs. A. B. Cook took US on her
trip to Dakota, and interestingly told
US about the farm houses she passed
while en- route. Mrs J. F. Bilhimer
also spoke and added to the program of
the afternoon.
General Improvements, was the
subject most ably handled by W. A.
Seegmiller. But with all the beautiful
naples and evergreens that surround
the Waugh farm and the general neat
ness and good taste in the interior of
the home, the situation and instruction
was not so easy as it otherwise might
b i've been. However, his talk was in
structive and thoroughly enjoyed and
brought out lively discussion. Re-

Alfalfa in the Middle West.

The middle northwestern States have
become tremendously interested in the
alfalfa problem. They see in this
wonderful forage the basis of more
staple and profitable farming. But
they have had trouble to find just the
hardy kinds of the plant needed to
meet rigorous climatic conditions. A
campaign now well under way in South
Dakota-to grow alfalfas widely and
especially to reclaim the high. and dry
lands of the State with alfalfas obtained
from Siberia and Russia-is, therefore,
of the utmost significance to Western
agriculture. 1t is certainly one of the
most significant movements in agricul-
ture today.
The great importance of the move
ment lies in the tremendous value of
alfalfa as forage for practically every
kind of livestock. Alfalfa grows lux
uriantly, giving abundant yields, it is
rich in protein, it is extremely palatable,
it gathers nitrogen abundantly, it re-
novates the soil and provides better
conditions for succeeding crops, and it
is long-lived. 1t has been the chief
support of great peoples in the region
between the Indian Ocean and the
Mediterranean, famous for its herds
since long before the Christian era. By
helping to restore the livestock industry
of the western uplands it will directly
enhance the wealth of the West. But
livestock means improved soil condi-
tions, and these spell better crops of
different varieties. Consequently alfalfa
not only means more stock. raising but
more crop.raising, and greater general
prosperity wherever it can be grown.
1t has been proven that the Russian
and Siberian alfalfas can be grown on
the high and dry uplands. Hence the
effort to extend the alfalfa areas over
these regions, if successful, means inn
mensely increased prosperity. 1t is
little wonder the people of the Middle
Northwest areinterested. From Han
sen, Americas First Plant Explorer"

Review of Reviews for October.

FROM STEERAGE TO GOVERNOR

Thirty-two years ago Adolph Olson,
little boy, landed at the New York
Immigrant station. He had come from
Sweden and was held up at Ellis Is
land until the inspectors were satisfied
he had friends in Minnesota who
would take care of him. As the lad
grew up, he found SO many Adolph Oh
sons among his Swede American fell
low citizens that he petitioned the
court to allow him to take the name Of
the woman he married. So today he
is Adolph Olson Eberhart, and is gov
ernor of the sovereign state of Min
nesota, which is going some in thirty
two years.
Yet the man who has risen from
the Storage to the governors chair
has not forgotten the days of hardship
of his youth. Visiting in New York
last week he heard of little German
boy who has been held up at the I'm
migration station under circumstances
identical with those which confronted
Adolph Olson thirty-two years ago.
So this governor of Minnesota got
busy and after days hard work con-
WINGED the authorities that the little
immigrants Minnesota friends would
take care of him and secured his re-
lease
Is history going to repeat itself and
thirty years hence will the immigrant
who was helped through Ellis Island
by the governor of Minnesota become
his successor in that gubernatorial
chair? Who can tell Editorial in

PIONEER VISITS OLD FRIENDS
st. Peter Free Press Acknowledges a
Visit From Redwood Falls
Resident

There is perhaps not an old settler
in this city who does not remember
the genial and ever cheerful George
Bailey, who came here in 1859. Mr..
Bailey is bricklayer and plasterer
by trade, but also familiar with the
intricacies of butchering cattle and
running meat market, and this came
IN quite handy in the old pioneer DAYS
when 1t was not always an easy mat.
ter to get good men to do that kind
of work. Mr.. Bailey came over with
the Clark brothers, direct from Eng
land and soon after his arrival work
ed at ms trade as bricklayer and plas-
terer in various parts of the county.
Some years later, when Tom Wright
opened a meat market on Front street.
George was engaged to help in the
business and sometimes was in sole
charge and had to do the buying and
killing of the stock and the selling of
the meat.
In 1872 he moved to MINNEAPOLIS.
where he worked at his trade for a
number of years. After he lost his
wife he moved to Hopkins, where he
made his home until two years ago,
He is now making his permanent resi-
dence at Redwood Falls.
Mr.. Bailey is visiting with Andrew
Cook and family on Front street this
week and is busy shaking hands with
his old friends. He says he is 80 years
young and that he has no intention
of leaving this earthly paradise for
number of years to come.-St. Pc

SAYS ALFALFA
Is QUEEN OF THE
FODDER CROPS

Chas. Lussenhop called at The Ga
zette office with one of the finest
specimens of alfalfa that has yet been
shown as Minnesota product.
Last August Mr.. Lussenhop plan
ted two and one-half acres to this
new fodder just as an experiment. 1t
more than made good; three cuttings
have been made this year, one June
%, the second July % and the last
one last Thursday, August 81.
At each cutting the crop has aver
aged one and one-half tons per acre.
This means eleven and one-half tons
of fodder which contains all the ele-
ments necessary to a balanced food
ration, and opens new vistas of cat
tie feeding before the county farmers.
Mr. Lussenhop has lived in Redwood
county for the past forty years ard
has achieved many successes which
make him an authority on agricultur-
81 topics. He believes firmly that al
falfa has come to stay in Minnesota.
and in a very few years, will be the
sto, kman's most dependable TO lder.

Your Freight Bills
Are Worth Money
Bills Dated Between July LIST, 1911
and July 20, 1913, May Bring
Good Returns
N. F. Dripps Busy Adjusting Claims
For Local Holders of Excess
sive Charge Claims
Refund Based on Plea of Unlawfully
Raised Rate in Force
For Two Years

Under the decision made by the
Supreme Court in the Minnesota Rate
Case, it is now possible for all those
holding freight bills, to get a refund
of certain per centage of the exor-
bitant charge made.
The Supreme Court ruling is based
on the charge of IAN unlawful raising
of the freight rate July 1, 1911"
This rate was in force until July 20,
1913, therefor any freight bills issued
between these two dates are worth
more or less money to the holder.
The method of procedure in collect
ing the refund is one of considerable
complexity and entails the skillful
untangling of much badly twisted red
tape. The simple method of punching
the bills, and sending them in to the
office is not in the least satisfactory,
the sender of the bills is very apt to
be greatly and disagreeably surprised
in the amount of trimming" the en-
ployees of the company find it posi-
BILE to effect.
N. F. Dripps is adjusting all local
claims against the freight company,
and is determined to get the most of
each possible claim held by those who
place their freight bills in his keeping.
He listsseach bill in the form required
by the company and his customer is
issued record of each claim which
assures him against any possible
fraud
Mr.. Dripps has the work already
well under way although he started
it only very recently.
There has been great rustling of
old bills throughout the city and@rpuch
mourning over bills carelessly tossed
aside IN the past. Those who haven't
hunted up the bills would be wise to do
so and put them into Mr.. Dripp's safe
keeping.
