Asked concerning the question OF
government in the event of his alb

there was no controversy on the sub
ject.
"The routine affairs of the office are
in capable hands," he said, "and while
it might have saved me little incoa-
venience were it possible to delegate
powers, it is an inconvenience which ]
am more than prepared to undergo in
order that may for brief period
carry on a work in which l am in

GOVERNOR RETURNS
In First Vacation In Years He Has
Been Spreading the Gospel of
MinnesOta's Greatness.

st. Paul, July 14.-Goverror Eber-
hart returned to the Twin Cities last
night and thereby answered and ques-
ton as to who is the chief executive
Of Minnesota. He was at his office in
ten Minutes, dispatched some official
business and then talked about his va
cation which had been interrupted by
me necessity of spending couple Of
days at his office.
The governor said that he was
spending his vacation time in talking
Minnesota to- southern farmers.
Though the delegation of power to
transact routine business
would be convenience, he was ready
to forego that convenience, the COVER
nor said, in order to carry on work
which absorbs his interest.
The governor will attend the meet
ing of the pardon board at 10 a. m.
today, yesterdays meeting having
been adjourned to await his arrival.
'This is the first vacation I have
had in years." said the governor,
"and I believe I am thoroughly en-
titled to the few weeks that I am TAX
ing. have not fully acquired the
vacation habit, however, for I am en-
ploying the time to carry what / am
possibly vain enough to believe is a
message to the southern states and at
the same time have been talking Min
nesota. The farmers of the South have
just had two droughts and are in a
mood to listen to the lesson of better
and intensive farming which we OF
Minnesota can give them.
THAT this is SO is indicated by the
wonderful attention which my audi
ences have given. When an audience
of 1000 persons will listen for two
hours during the hot southern even
ings, it is indicative that their minds
are at least open.

KEEP OFF FLIES
State EntOmolOgist Recommends a
Simple and inexpensive Method
of Protection.

The days of the fly net are passing.
Old Dobbin may hereafter forget the
lrksome duty of carrying so many
pounds of extra harness or a hot,
stuffy fly cloth. He literally may. go
forth with lard in his hair, and coat
so slick that flies cannot gain a foot
hold.
"Take one pound of rancid lard"
says Prof. F. L. Washburn, state en-
tomologist. "Mix it with one-haif
pint of kerosene and rub it on YOUR
horses coat, and the Eies will bother
him no more. In case you have no
rancid lard, fish oil will do. Take
three part of fish oil and one part of
kerosene, spray it on your horse and
he will be free from the pest for two
or three days, or until it rains. At
the end Of that time repeat the pro-
cess"
Three-eights of a pound of lard, ac-
cording to Prof. Washburn, is
enough for each full grown animal.
Care should be taken in the use of
kerosene, for kerosene will burn the
hair off the horse unless diluted in
the proportion given. Rub it on with
cloth or with the bare hand. The
mixture will give the horse a glossy
slippery coat, and the lard and the
kerosene together form a repellent
which keeps all kinds of flies away.
That formula is also good for cattle.
Other preventives FOR 1les are
darkened stables, and frequent cur
rying, which prevents the laying of
eggs in the hair.
Horse bot fly is dangerous and ac-
tive at this time of the year. 1t
also has been discovered that stable
flies carry the germs of infantile
paralysis and transmit the disease to
human beings through their bites.

OPENS AUSPICIOUSLY
Keen Interest Being Taken in Series
Of Evangelical Meetings Now
in Progress.

The union meetings conducted by
Evangelists Smith &. Gilmore began
last Sunday with a morning meeting
at the Congregational church, union
young peoples meeting at the Baptist
church and a union service at the
Methodist church at the close of the
day. All were we'll attended and full
Of interest. Smith & Gilmore have al
already proven themselves quiet, but
most earnest and enthusiastic work
ers. A great feature of each service
is their singing. Both men are solo
lists and their duets are truly musical
features. Sunday night they were
joined by Reverends Brown and Duel
in male quartet, and a professional
organization could not have done
much better. This combination will
be heard at the Friday night service
again and on Sunday.
The tent arrived Monday and has
been erected by the granite works
