The annual meeting of the Mime

they couldn't land their particular
route they would boost for any other
route that would keep the highway
within the borders of the state.
The highway commission is an able
body of men. They stated at the close
OF the meeting that they would take
the matter under advisement; that the
route had not been definitely located
anywhere, as the impression seemed
to be. Mr.. McNair said the jefferson
highway had brought to the attention
OF the board the significant fact that
the people of the state were intensely
interested in good roads. This meet
ing was by far the largest ever held
by the commission, that usually the
men appearing before the board were
begging for funds with which to
build roads, and he was glad indeed
to know that the state was at last
awake to this important question.
Before closing his talk Rudolph Lee
invited the commission to go over the
Sank Centre-Long Prairie route start
ing at St. Cloud, as early in the spring
as practical, assuring them that they
would be given ever courtesy and ac-
ommodation enroute. He also asked
that they go over the other route. At
ter these trips were taken to decide
the route strictly on the merits of the
case and residents of the Sank Cen
tre-LOng Prairie route would be con-
tent.

still on the Increase

Farmers of Minnesota loom big In
the eyes of automobile manufacturers
and distributors just now, says Sun
days Minneapolis Journal. For a
long time the state and it's large dis
tributing center, Minneapolis, have
been focusing the attention of the big
men in the industry, but now the pros
perity of the farmer has made an ad-
ded feature of interest.
1t has been discovered that the far
mer of Minnesota, owns 46,562 OF the
$4,000 acres registered with Julius
Schmahl, secretary Of State. Also, it
is noticed that farm supported towns
own automobiles at an increasing rate
over towns centering in lumber ano
other districts.
The Farmer, a St. Paul publication
in it's annual review Of registration
data, estimates that more than 1OO,'
900 farmers in Minnesota are objects
of attacks by motorcar men and or
CARNATIONS.
A large number of these cars are
likely to be of the medium price va
riety, so that makers and sellers OF
the car valued at around $1,000 are
due to get into the ring.
This tendency is shown by the fac'
that the Dodge car, one year in the
field already has 948 cars in use in the
state. The Ford has sold up to 3O,7Os

ISSUE NEW MILEAGE BOOKS

Railroads operating in Minnesota
may arrange for a mileage book on
2-cent a mile basis for interstate
travel as the result of complaints
which have poured into railway offices
since the price of interstate mileage
books was raised to 2A cents and the
sale of intrastate books abandoned.
The issuance of such books has been
taken up by the Western Passenger
association and referred to special
committee which is now investigating
the matter. 1t is feared that the ex-
istence of such books, good within the
limits of any two-cent fare state,
would result in abuse, as coupons
could be detached for the two-cent
could be detached for the two fares of
an interstate trip, thus avoiding the
higher fare. The wholesalers of the
Twin Cities have Joined in the COM
plant and request for the interstate
mileage.

SEED GRAIN TESTED FREE

Now is the time to take inventory
Of all the seed you intend to sow next
spring Having found out how much
seed you need, clean and grade your
supply, so that only the best shall be
used for seeding purposes. After this
is done have seed tested for purity and
termination. This will show whether
the seed contains noxious weed seeds
and whether or not it will grow when
planted. If you are to buy seed, buy
early and have samples, tested as to
purity and termination. The Mime

them for the market. Messers Dern-
berger & Wagner recently bought
these five steers for the Corner Mar

$3.50 pounds, which means dressing
of 60 per cent. Dernberger says this
is the very acme of dressing out fig
ures, that no steer was ever dressed
out in this region at greater than 60
per cent, and consequently no better
meat was produced here. Rations
during the preparing-for-market pro-
cess were ground barley, ground oats,
oil meal, clover hay and bundle corn.
The choice meat from these five prize
steers is now being sold on the block
