INSPECT HERALD PRINTERY
Disinterested Experts Examine New
Intertype and Pronounce it Best
Made for the Money,

Tuesday afternoon w. II. Huntley
of the Huntley Printing Co., of Dull
nth, accompanied by Mrs. Huntley and
VIM. H. Breen, chief machinist of the
Duluth Herald plant, arrived in Sank
Centre, the gentlemen coming for the
express purpose of giving the Her
AIDS new typesetting machine thor
ough inspection, and the lady to visit
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. C. o. Hoff-
man.
Mr.. Huntiey's company are about to
install typesetting machine in their
rapidly growing plant at Duluth and
are looking for the latest and best.
He had heard . great deal about the
Intertype and brought Mr.. Breen al
ong with him to furnish expert advice.
The latter is q thorough machinist
and after putting the Herald's Inter-
type to every test and comparing its
improvements with those Of it's near
est rival on the market, gave the ma
chine a clean bill. He decided that
several of the features are decidedly
in the lead of anything on the market,
while he thought that some of the late
improvements on the linotype were
as good as others on the Intertype.
Quite naturally the Herald was graf
flied to have a disinterested expert
pronounce the Intertype the best ma
chine on the market for the money.
Mr.. Huntley was formerly a resi-
dent Of Sank Centre working in the
print shops here years ago. He has
built up = splendid business in Duluth
which win be gratifying news to his
many old friends IN rnis vicinity. He
left again Wednesday nooH but Mrs.
Huntiey vii remain for quite an ez-
tended visit with her psrenka and
friends.

About $50 ladies and gentlemen
were present at Thursday evenings

pressiyely installed by State Trustee
John Grutsch of Avon. After the in

pleasing personality, and bis dis

was filed with LIS s statistics,
demonstrating beyond doubt that
there was place in the state. and maj
ton fof this splendid organisation.
More than likely Mr. Collier will re-
turn at later date and address the
members of the Commercial Club on
a general topic.
Senator Coler is one of the Oldest
members in the senate in point OF SER
vice. He is is generally recognized as
one of the influential members OF that
body.
The Reed orchestra rendered sever
al selections between the addresses
and later furnished music for short
informal hop in the dining room of the
club. At midnight the members and
their ladies and friends adjourned to
the Waldorf Cafe. where Mine Host J.
J. Weisner served . splendid oyster

Before the meeting adjourned res
olutions were passed thanking the
speakers, the Commercial Club for the
use of their cosy hall, and the commit

GOPHER STATE BEATS ILLINOIS
AND IOWA In PRODUCTION
OF FIELD CORN.
Big LEAD IN OATS and RYE
WISCONSIN CLOSE IN POTATO
PRODUCTION WITH 100 AS
AGAINST ITO Blu.

St Paul, Jan 12-MinneSOta pfOduc-
ed more corn, oats, rye and potatoes
to the acre than any other state.
Fred d. Sherman, commissioner of
immigration, has compiled statistics
from the official Federal government
reports for 1913 showing Minnesota's
supremacy in agriculture and is mail
ing copies Of it to thousands Of farm
ers throughout Iowa, Indiana, Illinois,
Missouri and Nebraska, in order to
show them the advantages possessed
by the North Star State.
Comparisons with other states in
every line Of agricultural products
show that Minnesota is at the front.
This is what Mr.. Sherman is trying TO
impress on farmers in other common
wealths. He says people in the states
to the South never consider Minnesota
rs corn producing state. Despite
this fact 100000 acres were planted
to this crop last year, yielding 96,O0O,-
600 bushels, worth at least $40, 900 900.
The average crop per acre was 40
bushels, while in the corn belt states,
Iowa, Nebraska and Illinois, raised
but "a, Is and 81 bushels per acre,
respectively. Wisconsin also produc-
ed 40 bushels but its acreage was
nearly 100000 less than that of Min
nesOta.
IL -. BE-
SO bushels, in rye with 10 and in >po-
tatoes with 10. VI
The only state that approached,
Minnesota in potatoes is wisconsin,
with 100 bushels to the acre. Mich:
igan was next with IS and North OAK
ota third with IS. Minnesota grew a
total of 100000 blu of spuds, plac-
ing it third in production among the
states, only Michigan and Wisconsin
with much larger acreages exceeding
it's record. This is considered remark
able by Mr.. Sherman because it has
been only during the last few years
that Minnesota has taken high rank
in potato production.
In his letter which accompanies the
report Mr.. Sherman shows how the IL
linois farmer could make more If he
sold his $500 an acre !Snd there and
came to Minnesota. In Illinois the corn
crop averaged q bushels, meaning a
total income of $21 for $500 invest
trent. This same investment will buy
three acres of the best Minnesota land
and on it can be grown 120 bushels
of corn worth $92.
In other words Minnesota land will
yield five times the return on the in
y4stment if corn is planted, as will IL
tinois land. He believes that when
these facts are carefully studied there
will be larger exodus from the south
towards the north.
The comparison in crops between
the states as prepared by Mr.. Sher-
man follows:

preparedness is folly; 1t was lack
of common wisdom. There was no
excuse for the careless and reckless
course of the five virgins who came
to their hour of opportunity unready.
one of the severest indictments that
the business world makes of the
youth of this generation, is that it
comes in the worlds market place
unprepared to do the service for
which it asks pay.
Nations cannot prepare for war
while the enemy is hammering at
their gates; neither may a people
make ready for peace and self-gov-
ernment over night. Only the long
look can bring to fruition the full
value of the preparation time, which
is the most important time in all of
life.
The Point of the Parable
Over and over. by story and by
exhortation Jesus had been stressing
the one dominant idea watch" He
wanted his friends to be ready for
the Kingdoms coming. The very
uneXpectedness of the event is an
exhortation to fidelity. If man knew
he were to die ten years hence, he
might be able to make his peace with
God after nine years of living for
| himself. But because the bridegroom s
coming may be tonight or tomorrow,
the friends of the bridegroom must
watch. This eternal vigilance is the
price of opportunity of soul. Only by
an attitude of alertness may the spirit
Lbe kept quick and sensitive. Spiritual

The Things Which Cannot Be Shared
The five wise virgins who had to
use their own store of oil, even as
every one of us is steward of his own
gifts, have often been criticised for
not sharing what they had with their
needless sisters. There are some
things which cannot be shared. In
this case it was better for the honor
of the wedding party that five lamps
should burn brightly throughout,
than that ten should shine for but a
little while, leaving the feast in un-
timely darkness. Be it remembered
that the whole episode was for the
honor of the bridegroom, rather than
for the pleasure of the guests.
Preparation is always individual.
One cannot lay by any store for
many The mother cannot go to
school for the child; the father can
not exercise prudence and industry
and faithfulness for his son; all spir-
itual experiences are one by one,
each for himself. The great trans
actions of the soul are enacted in
the vast loneliness of the apartness
of one soul with it's Maker, quite
as if no others had ever shared the
same experience in the past

| lied as wicked. but as foolish; un-

German banks in all of the Argentine
cities has brought a great extension of
German sales in that country This,
he pointed out. is the immediate factor
in our trade relations.
Secretary Schoff spoke glowingIy of

Panama Canal gave this country for

Philadelphia, Sept IL. = The estab-

Schof, secretary of the Philadelphia

buyers into the markets of the South

misfortune to lose his right arm in a

viable record for efficiency and courtesy.
For seven years Mr.. Hempsted served
Vienna township in the capacity of

for accuracy and business-like methods
in that office. For two years he was
elected village treasurer and here, also,

essarily made friends in nearly all Sec

to say that Mr.. Hempsted is in every

Charles Brewer, well-known young
farmer of this section, enlisted in the
U. S. army at Flint, few days ago.
where he passed the preliminary physi-
cal examination and was ordered to the
general recruiting station at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan. Here, in company
with about hundred seventy-five other
young men, gathered from all parts of
the country, he was subjected to a very
thorough physical examination with the
result that he was rejected and pro-
vided with transportation to return::to
his home. Mr.. Brewer states that out
of the hundred seventy-five candidates,
in his opinion, one hundred fifty failed
to pass. This fact, if such it be, is
either derogatory to the average fitness
of American young men or indicates
that the government is not so apprehen-
sive of war with Mexico but that:it can
afford to be very nice in its selection of
material.
