257 and S51.

III. Il. No. 257.-Some misunder-
standing has arisen concerning House
Bib 257. To ensure clear under
standing of the effect of this bill
the following statement Is made:
I'D Neither this bill nor any other
bill takes away the power of school
districts to make special levies. The
annual meeting has exactly the same
power In this respect as in the past
two years, namely, to levy any
amount up to 10 mills for the support
of their schools.
(2) The Bill provides new and
higher minimum for the county levy
namely, that the county levy must
provide an amount not less than $15
per child of school age IN the county.
The county commissioners may levy
more than this at their discretion.
81 A good many counties in the
state have been levying more than
this amount. The new law viii not
effect these counties In any way.
CAD In other counties the new law
will Increase the amount of money
raised by the county school levy. This
should enable practically all school
districts In the county to get along
with a lower special levy. The at
tention .of school trustees and tax
payers Is called particularly to this
point
60 The county school fund
will be apportioned in practically
the same way as before40 per cent

The military training In high school
has taken definite form. The boys

consented to help In the local drilling.
About thirty two boys are reporting

Chamberlain and Bashore.
Arrangements are being made to set
tie up the credits Of the six high school
boys who are militia members.
The musical department of the high
school will give their program Friday
evening April 10, at 8 o'clock. The
work of the whole year has gone to
help make the event. This fact ought
to assure its success more than any
other factor. A charge Of 20 cents will

THE SONG OF THE WHEAT.

I draw my birth from the Mother Earth,
The matrix Of all that lives;
The sun is my size, his passionate fire
The life to her offspring gives;
He woos her and warns her in lusty way,
But he tempers the heat Of his dusty day
With the rain that he sends from the
southwest,
To quicken the seed in her mighty breast.
Then the grasses grow and the wild
flowers blow,
And the world begins to sing;
But I am the heir to this royalty fair,
For am of life the King.
From the tropic glow to the lands Of
snow,
The whole world waits for me;
No wheel can turn, no thought can
burn,
Till the giver of life they see.
No whit I reek of the Gains of birth,
No wealth is my standard Of greater
worth;
To the favored few, and the struggling
mass,
I am Necessity, scorner of sClass'' :,
For where is the race that will calmly face
The loss Of the life bring?
And man is wild when the means of his
In his ears forever ring.
When Bread" is the cry, let the rich
man HE, T.
To scatter the food that his wealth can
.. buy,
Or beware of the hunger that will not die,
For am of life the King. 49,,
And woe to the fool who fancies the rule
My freedom to come and go! S
No wealth is so great as the laws of fate,
And I bury him meath my snow.
Perchance he is called "The King of the
Wheat, .~'...
For season of sovereignty short and
sweet, 49,. ~ -.
But from all the earth with pinions fleet
I fly, on his insolent head to beat.
No s'King of the Wheat" is he, I throw,
But the Wheat is the monarch that lays
him low. go
One bungler more I add to my score,
And again my song sing:
No power can stay me, no trusts betray

BLIND MANS PIGS TOP
SOUTH ST. PAUL MARKET

Nicholas Nelson of Klossner, last week
sold lot of hogs at South St. Paul that
not only brought record price, but were
remarkable for their weight. The fact
that Mr.. Nelson, who has been blind for
the past thirty years, having been injured
while blasting rock which deprived him
of the sight of both eyes, has caused a
considerable comment in the Twin
Cities, when the fact of his sale OF hogs
became known there. Mr.. Nelson owns
one of the best farms in Nicollet county,
which he leases and devotes his time to
raising cattle and hogs. -
Fifteen of his spring pigs on the South
St. Paul market, last Wednesday, weigh
ed 1880 pounds at home and 1850
pounds at South St. Paul. They brought
$13.25 hundred, a total of $617.45.
The shipping charges were IS IL cents
a hundred, the hogs netting him $6OO.91.
They were marketed by John Globes,
manager of the Equity Association of
Klossner, and were sold to that organi-
zation's, representative, the J. R. Kirby
Commission Company of South St. Paul.
Mr.. Nelson complains that his hogs
were not as good this year as they. were
year ago.
