MARSHALL COC|xoHL<
BECOMEstc4,

Today marks the end of 20 ,loon
on the western Minnesota bor4er by
the closing of the Oslo thirst parlors
Oslo, village of about 400 inhab-
itants, was established in 1905 when
the 500 railway was built thru the
county and on account of it's splendid
location became point for supply
ing northern North Dakota towns
with liquor. The town has maintain
ed four brewery wholesale houses
and four saloons. The amount of
business handled by them has been
very large.
Oslo feels that it will be able to
hold it's own without the saloons,
and it's business men are optimistic
for Oslo's future. All the vacated
buildings have been spoken for and
will be used for legitimate business
enterprises.
There is little or no celebrating,
which had been expected by the vii
lage authorities, they having provid-
ed special police to watch each
saloon. The only sign of ire saloons
passing out Of history was the num-
Der of packages carried away by men
who wanted to supply themselves for
the long drought. The saloonkeepers
say that the greater part of rush
business came from North Dakota
towns. The saloons will close at II
O'Clock this evening and the officers
do not anticipate any trouble in en-
forcing the laws, which speaks well
for the good sense of the people of
Oslo.

A GRINDING DEMONSTRATION.

Last week w. F. Powell & Co. adj
vertised great feed grinding dem
onstration at their place of business.
Not only did they offer to grind feed
free Of cost, but would also furnish
every farmer with a good dinner on
the bargain. Mr.. Powell is believ-
er in printers ink, but when he woke
up early Monday morning and saw
long strings of farmers wagons load
ed with grain drawn up in front of
his warehouse, he was more then
ever impressed with the value Of adj
vertising, when backed up properly
with the goods. Three feed mills of
different sizes were kept busy grind
ing all day. That great interest was
taken in the demonstration may be
inferred when we state that about
200 meal tickets were furnished to
farmers at Mr.. Powell's expense.
All who saw the demonstration were
pleased with the work of the little
mill. A good feed mill is now a
necessity on every farm.

C. A. NELSON WRITES ABOUT
AUTO TRIP TO CHICAGO.
Chicago, Ill, Dec. IL, 1911!

Editor Sheaf:-
| am sending you few lines, which
may be of interest to some of our
Warren friends.
When we left Warren, we felt as
though we had left many good
friends behind us. We surely did en-
joy a good time during the six years
we spent at Warren.
| left Warren on Friday noon, in
the auto in company with G. Wick
man and Henning Lund. We went by
way Of Grand Forks, crossing the
Red River, to Hillsboro, N. D., a
distance Of 81 miles, the first after
noon.
As the DAYS were short and We ll,acs,
plenty CIV tiIl1e,. We only traiSelsd py
day light.
1t was quite heavy snow storm,
during the night, 3 inches of snow.
Proceeded the next morning, crossing
the Red River again at Fargo, then
through GAINESVILLE, to Fergus Falls.
Between Fergus Falls and Alex
andria it was very hilly. We made
every hill on high speed except one.
This hill was quite slippery and we
had a chance to go around it and
made it O. K. We found the roads in
better condition than we expected.
We made Minneapolis in 2s hour
run, distance of 424.
I spent a few days in Minneapolis
and St. Paul and from there travel
ed alone to Chicago.
From st. Cloud, Mimi. and going
straight South from St. Paul to
Mason City, Iowa, and thence to
Waterloo, Iowa, distance of about
400 miles, the road was like a
boulevard.
Some bad roads from Waterloo to
Cedar Rapids, but from there to
Chicago they were fine.
Crossing the Mississippi River at
Clinton, Iowa, it was not hard to
find the auto trail through the coun-
try. I found larger hills through
Iowa then did in Minnesota, but had
no treble at all to make them, as the
roads were the very best. I never
had a puncture nor had had to pump
up any tire between Warren, MINI,
and Morrison, ILL.,, a distance of 929
miles. But starting out from the lat
ter place in the morning, found
had a flat tire, which soon was re-
paired. The distance that I travelled
altogether was 1,029 miles, and the
time 81 hours.
The weather was fine all the time
I was travelling. passed through
many large cities that I had never
seen. It was quite a pleasure trip.
Passing through Southern Mime
sofa and Northern Iowa [ noticed
that nearly all the farmers have piled
up their corn out in the pig lots in
large quantities in place of putting it
in the cribs; as the corn is so poor,
they snap it and feed it to the hogs
and cattle.
We had a snow storm here yester-
day, about four inches of snow fell.
The weather is mild, and the snow is
melting away. No skating on ice
here yet.
AS this letter leaves we are all
well.
Best greetings to all friends.
