A Suggestion Worth
Considering.

The placing on sale in the
various local stores and lunch
houses. of domestic science pro.
ducts of the farms tributary to
Frankllnton would stimulate an
industry accruing to the benefit
of both producer and merchant.
Products correctly treated by
careful selection of the best ma
terials, canned or bottled as re-.
quired, bearing neatly printed,
or engraved, labels stating the
quality and quantity Of product,
the name and location of pro-
Queer, guaranty of contents and,
advisedly, the retail price, will
surely sell and, if of wholesom Q
quality, will induce increasing
orders. AS many producers feel
unable to tie up money in ex-
cessive quantities of labels it is
recommended that they obtain
small quantities of ready-made
labels having blank space for
the name of producer-these
can be procured at low prlc es in
quantities of a hundred.

In this case we shall recoup part
OF the original expenditure by the
good that the same dams may serve
in securing regular flow of water
hereafter.
The six dams can practically con-
troll the waters when the navigation
idea is correlated with agriculture
and water powers. The way to keep
the safest flow is to let the waters
from the reservoirs fill the river to
safe stage just before freezing and
then the water can be kept as that
stage all winter or until the res
ervoirs are empty. When the flood
waters come, fill them again.
The opposite course has been fol-
lowed heretofore.
Never Suffer From High Water.
The farmers will probably never
again suffer from as high waters as
they have in the past It was COM
mon thing formerly for dozens of
loggers on. different streams to let
out the waters to drive logs at the
same time and when all these waters
centralized in the Mississippi river
they caused the floods.
There should be no trouble or diff
ficulty, in adjusting the water flow in
the future so as to get the best re-
suits obtainable from good manage
ment., The damage done in the past
should be settled for by the govern
ment and then it will bring things
into general harmony. > ~ ::

WE CAN SAVE YOU SOC a ROLL
ON ROOFING PAPER

just now, but when making his pur-
chase of roofing paper, Mr.. Holm
berg was not familiar with the ad-
vantages Of the Bemidji markets SO
placed his order with a large mail
order house for slate surfaced roof
ing. They charged him $2.5Oa roll
and together with freight charges of
35c roll the cost delivered at La
porte was $2.85.
Our price on the same kind OF
roofing paper, made by the General
Roofing company and guaranteed by
them is 1925 a roll. Freight from
Remidji to Laporte is about 10 cents
a roll, making the price delivered
by us $2.35. This means saving
Of soc roll or $500 on the ten rolls
