SILVER CUPS GIVEN AWAY
Four Great Silver Trophies Given by
Minnesota State Fair - Marshall
County Farmers Should Try to Sc
cure One or More.

Are four of the five handsome $500
silver cups offered by the Minnesota
State Fair to the Minnesota exhibi-
tors of the best pecks Of flax, barley,
wheat and oats, and the best ten ears
Of corn, three years out Of five, to be
awarded this year? For four years
the competition has been one Of the
features Of the Fair.
Paul Burtzlaff, OF Saltwater. won
the fax cup in 1911 and 1912. G..B.
Wells, OF Pine City, won the corn cup
in 1912 and 1913. S. 3. Wells, of
Pine City won the wheat cup in 1911
and 1912. John Henderson, of Cokato,
won the oats cup in 1911 and 1913.
Each one Of the four must win the
cup one more time to insure per1na-
nent possession. In the last two
years another group of aspirants has
pushed these old exhibitors hard.
The winner of one of these cups not
only is given chance on the trophy
but large cash premium. It is con-
sidered one Of the biggest victories at
the Minnesota State Fair to have
ones name linked with the temporary
possession Of any of the five cups.

The Boxville Consolidated School
Occupies Its New Building.

We had the pleasure yesterday to
inspect the new school house in the
Boxville Consolidated District, which
has been completed so far that it was
possible that day to transfer the pu-
pills from the old school house to the
handsome modern building. It is
Glass B consolidated school house
with two school rooms and two addi-
tional rooms for the teaching Of do
mestic science and manual training
and agriculture. The building is fur
nished with an up-to-date steam heat
ing system, both direct and indirect,
and also ventilating system that
will supply pure air in abundance. A.
gasoline engine pumps water into the
building from deep we'll outside and:
by means of pressure tank dis
tributes it thruout the building. There
is sanitary drinking fountain in
each school room. Two toilet rooms,
one for the boys and one for the girls,
are inside the building, in the base.
ment, with cess pool at safe dis
tance. on the outside. There are al
so ample cloak rooms and library
and reading room. The building will
cost COMPLETED about $4,000. It has
been built by Peter Olson, carpenter
and contractor, Of Warren and he has
evidently done good job. The War
rem Machine and Iron Works Co., has
installed the steam heating plant and
plumbing and S. B. Lund & Co., also
Of Warren, is doing the painting. The
Boxville Consolidated School District
surely has reason to feel proud of its
fine, up-to-date school house. The
progressive school board consists Of
the following gentlemen: G. F. Pet
erson, Clerk; John Iverson Skurdahl,
Treasurer; and Dudley Cheney, Di-
rector. Miss Margaret O'Donnell,
who has been the principal of the
school, has been compelled to resign
on account Of illness and has been
succeeded by Nels Engen, as principal
and teacher in the grammar depart
ment. Miss Annie Cheney is the
teacher in the primary grades and of

pirate exercises.

C. A. Tullar, Postmaster. !.
May 10, 1915.
To the Patrons:
Greeting: This office has been ad-
vised by the Chief Clerk of the Rail-
way Mail Service that an unusual
amount Of mail matter is deposited at
the G. N. Depot, to be mailed on
Train No. 8 by the G. N. employees.
Very often there are from fifty to
over one hundred pieces. This custom
has become very serious burden to
the Ry. Postal Clerks; consequently,
this office has been requested to do
something to induce this mail matter
to pass thru the postoffice, it's proper
channel. You may rest assured that
this office will greatly appreciate the
extra effort you may be required to
make in order to deposit your mail in
the postofice instead of the depot.
Until the Department rules otherwise,
the mail pouch for train will not be
closed until 8:2O o'clock. The clerks
will be greatly pleased if you deposit
your mail early, as it will give them
time to route and tie it up in proper
order. Thanking you for your kind
ly cooperation in this important mat
ter, I am most respectfully,
Yours to serve,
CA. Tullar,
Postmaster.
