attendance was a source Of consider
able expense to litigants for the at
torneys would charge their clients
with the expense incurred in attend
ing the court, and also for their
time. 1t was believed that this
formality Of setting the cases could
be dispensed with without prejudice
to any one, and the litigants relieved
of the unnecessary expense of send
ing their attorneys to st. Paul to at
tend the call of the calendar, and the
old practice is by the new rules
wholly abolished. Hereafter the ap-
peals will be set for argument by
the court as they come in, and the
clerk will notify the attorneys of
the date. This will do away with
the call of the calendar, an out of
date form of procedure, and dis
pense with the useless extra trip to
st. Paul by the attorneys.
1.-THE other change reduces the
laws delay very materially. To
enable the court to make the changes
the legislature was requested to
amend certain of the statutes upon
the subject, and the request was
promptly granted. By the amended
statute the court was authorized
without calling the attorneys in, tc
fix time for the argument of ap.
peals, and to require the parties tc

Names of Farms in County

A law was passed by the state leg
islature about six years ago that pro-
tected the names of farms that were
registered at the office of the register
of deeds The first few years large
number of Stevens county farmers
took advantages of this statute and
filed the names of their farms at
J. J. Gaffney's office. For some rea-
son however there has been little or
no interest taken by farmers in the
county giving their farms a regist
cred name in the last few years. Civ
ing a farm good name is a mark of
pride and progress aud the reason
for the lack of interest in recent
years is unaccOuntable.
Following is the list of the Stew
ems county farm names that have
been filed with the register of deeds.
The list includes the names of the
farmers who owned the farms at the
time the names were filed. Many of
the farms have since changed own
ers.

KILL THE WEEDS.

Spring blowing, or disking, as soon
as the weed seeds have terminated, is
usually a profitable practice. Where
small grain is to be sown, the sowing
should be done soon after blowing;
but where corn, potatoes, or the
sorghums are to be grown, there is
often a period of several weeks be
tween the time of the termination of
the weed seeds and the time when the
season is sufficiently advanced to
plant the crop. This period should be
utilized as far as possible for the de-
scruction of weeds before the crop is
planted Much labor in keeping the
crop free from weeds during it's grow
ing period can thus be saved

conform thereto, or suffer an affirm
has been adopted by which all ap
peals must be proceeded with by the
appellant within sixty days, and if
the rule be not complied with the
court will order an affirmance or dis
miss the appeal and remand the case
to the lower court. Under the form
er practice the attorneys were auth
orized to postpone the time for serv-
ing the briefs and for hearing, from
time to time by stipulation, thus
often clogging the calendar and de-
laying final judgment. This right of
stipulation has been taken away
from the attorneys. The court will
no longer recognize it, and the at
torneys must proceed under the rules,
and promptly bring the appeals on
for hearing, otherwise an aff1rmance
or dismissal follows.
Again cases have under the old
practice remained on the calendar
term after term, without argument
or submission for decision, thus de-
laying final judgment. This has
been brought to an end. One Of the
new rules provides that where an ap-
peal remains in the court without
submission for decision for longer
period than a year the court will Of
it's own motion affirm the judgment
and remand the cause.

Broken Broker.

The late Judge Pennypacker of Phil adelphia was an advocate of the en- franchisement of woman, but he also advocated justice, in the relationship between the sexes, for man. "Wom- an," he said, whimsically one day at the PennsylVa .ia Historical society, mustn't play it both ways. She mustn't get the vote and the equal wage through mans sense of equity and then get all kinds of unfair privil. eges through his sense of gallantry There's a lot of truth in the story of the young broker who, after his fail ure, was thrown over by pretty girl. Why was the engagement broken off?' banker asked the ruined broker. We'll" he answered, after I'd given her a string of pearls, an opera box, and a birthday gift of 12-cylinder I went to smash. and her people accused me of amusing myself at her expense.'"

Need More Training.

This is what one college president saws in an address: ''With the mul- tiplicity of subjects 1t is only to be expected that some anxiety may be felt as to the results from present-day methods of teaching. ! must confess there is some need for this sugges. tion of anxiety. Perhaps the pendulum has swung too far, or we may have discovered the correct scientific metE- od of dealing with the subjects taught in the elementary school. I feel con- vinced that training is not receiving its fair share of attention. There was much wastage of time in the past, but the old-fashioned grinding was not without it's good points, one of which Nas the cultivation of the faculty of sticking to task until it was known" Princeton Review.

Rich Man Knows Not What He Wants

The WOman's Home Companion has an article in which this passage oc- CUTS: "The nuisance for the man who has acquired great financial resources usually is that he doesn't know what he wants. Possessing the resources and feeling the moral necessity to have recourse to them, he looks about for something to want, and he selects the most costly thing. The acquisi- tion of this most costly thing always involves, ill practice, the separation of the rich man from society. Thus, he will acquire a large estate, or sev- eral large estates, and cut himself off from the world by gates, doors, miles of drive, lodgekeepers, menials and secretaries. Or he will acquire g. OOO-ton yacht and cross the Atlantic privately, though less quickly, less comfortably and even less privately than on great liner Or he will keep private orchestra, instead of being seen at concerts. All which, though magnificent, is antisocial and silly, and is secretly felt to be so by the rich man when he happens to wake up in the middle of the night and can't go to sleep again."

Absurd Old Laws.

An article in the Revue des Tradi- tions Popularies in 1890 told how a glacier was communicated on ac- count of the damage it did to life and property in the valley. In English law there was for many years a statute compelling owners of personal chattels which had caused the death of man to give them to God. This was accom- plished by turning them over to the crown to be sold and the proceeds ap- piled to pious uses.

in the world. Its simplicity separates it most pleasantly from the more elaborate models that the Avenue has to display.
 We have seen evening gowns of metallic brocades and we have seen evening gowns of the most gorgeous silks and of nets embroidered with beads and with silver until the work seems over heavy for the foundation. Today there was shown an evening gown of corn yellow taffeta with a beautifully draped skirt forming suggestive pannier over each hip and prcttily draped round evening bodice with becoming short sleeves. There was absolutely no trimming save that the drapery at the left side was held by little bunch of yellow flowers and that Tt the waist line was a narrow ribbon of Royal blue show ing simple design of leaves brocadcd in silver. There we're numbericss gowns and suits of more elaborate sort, but these two stand forth as distinctive.
 We have grown accustomed to em- broidcry of all sorts and to braid. A novelty is found in suit of chiffon velvet that is stcncicd with dye paint to produce Q very novel and somewhat attractive result. It is dark taupe in color and the stencil shows soft pastel shades that are exceedingly pretty against the background. How far such treatment will succeed, how far become a feature is question, but this one suit, beside being novel, has q certain charm to commend it.
 The sets of hats, muHs, bags and soarfs are constantly taking new forms. A very pretty one is made of Paisley shawl with bands of Hudson Seal and everywhere, this idea of the matching sets is apparent. The Paisley shawls and the Indian shawls will be used to some extent, but velvet and the heavy silks are the materials most in demand !or accessories ot the kind and we may safely look for some very charming development, with the coming of the colder season.
