In the Matter of the Estate of Bertha

On receiving and filing the petition of

representing among other things that
Bertha Schmidt, was on the 18th day
OF January, 1908, and for several years
prior thereto had been a resident of the
City of New Ulm, in said Brown County,
Minnesota. That on or about said 18th
day OF January, 1908, she left said Brown

RURAL SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION
MEETS WITH FAVOR.

Plans for the consolidation of four or
more OF the adjoining rural school
districts and the erection of modern
high school building at a centrally located
point, are being agitated in several
localities in Brown County as we'll as in
the adjoining counties. Tracy and vi
entity has been a field for exploration
along this line
Speaking of the subject the Tracy
Herald says: What can be done with
the small rural school no more
than ten pupils attend? This is said to
be the most expensive school in the educa-
tional system of the state.
Two years ago the school board of
district No. SO found it had only five
pupils with which to start. 1t would
cost about $500 to run the school or
$500 for each pupil. Tracy, only three
| miles away, was educating 700 pupils
at less than one-third of that amount.
At the annual school meeting the farmers
talked over the situation. They are
enterprising and progressive and finally
found law they thought would apply.
This law provides that when any district
deems it advisable it may arrange for the
instruction of it's pupils in some adjoin-
ing districts and discontinue the schools
OF it's own district. The district must
provide free transportation for it's pupils.
1t can retain it's organization and draw
public money, including the special state
aid.
This law, which is chapter 167 of the
1911 session, looked good to the officers
OF district No. SO and they decided to try
it one year. It was found to work so we'll
that the school is still closed and the
children are attending school here and
putting in more days than they did in the
one room rural school. When they get
far enough along they will have the adj
vantages of the splendid new high school
building.
Other districts heard of the plan and
some tried it. District No. SO closed
its school and sent the six children to the
Russell four-room school,. There is now
talk of consolidation with the Russell
district. District No. 81 has also closed
and is sending it's children to No. 81.

DRINK HOT TEA
- FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy. Take tablespoonful of the
tea, put a cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink q
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. It is the most
effective way to break a cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving a cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

FISHING SEASON CLOSED FOR
TWO MONTHS. 90 !. 6.

Minnesota's fishing season closed on
the first of March for the months Of
March and April. During the closed
season only the spearing Of pickerel, carp,
bullheads. redhorse and suckers is per-
mitted in the streams and lakes. The
use OF artificial light upon streams within
500 feet of a lake is also prohibited.
The open season for the benefit of the
disciples of Isaac Walton will begin on
April Is, when they will be permitted to
whip the streams for the elusive trout,
The season for the catching of black bass
does not open until May 20 and for all
other fish on May l..
A misleading statement to the effect
that the federal migratory bird law has
been suspended from enforcement by the
department of agriculture has been going
the rounds of the newspapers of the
state, giving hunters the impression that
they may hunt wild fowl this spring.
Nothing of the sort has been done. Even
if the department should desire to sus-
pend the enforcement of the law, prose-
cutions could still follow.
Under, the federal regulations as they
now stand, the season on all migratory
birds is closed until next fall throughout
the United States. Federal inspectors
and wardens are required to report any
infractions Of this law and the state
game wardens have been asked to aid the
federal men to see that the law is strictly
observed.
Doubtless the erroneous impression
on which the newspaper statements were
based was gained from the fact that
litigation involving the validity of the
federal law is at present pending in the
federal courts. The lower federal courts
have disagreed as to the validity of the
statutes and the issue was carried to the
Supreme Court last October, but has not
been decided up to this time.
