The coffee Boys Corner

1t is. evident that during the hiatus

sary for a poet to have "insperation
without which all verse is as nothing
Herbert's verse follows:

lea have had to import much of it..
Experts who have analysed careful
ly the soil in this great region, which.
lacks now only the hand Of man to
transform it to a veritable paradise,
say that some day the greatest flax
fields in all the Americas will be
found here. They believe that the
time is not far distant when great
linen factories will be located in the
Twin Cities and Minnesota linen will
take its place side by side with Irish
and Dutch linen.
Nh. Andrews, in order to prove
the flax raising qualities of the
soil, planted a small tract of it last
year. Within four weeks, he had
as fine a stand Of flax as can be found
in any other portion of the state.
His experiment has already proven
that the soil is we'll fitted for flax
raising.
Forage Crops Grow Well.
Hay and forage crops grow to per-
lection in this new land. All vari-
cites of clover, timothy hay, alfalfa,
grow with amazing results. Red clo-
yer has become a standard crop with
the settlers IN the ground.
It would shock Iowa and Missouri

who have been 50 certain that Iowa,

grown successfully have something
coming to them in the way of enlight-
eminent. On account of the long
hours of sunlight, corn has become
one Of the staple crops in Northern
Minnesota.
All of the small grains have done
well on this land. Rye, barley and
oats have beer raised with much sue

raised much wheat as yet, what has

Then if he is wise, he will work
it up again by means Of a harrow
or disc and burn once more. The
result will be soil that cannot be
equaled anywhere for productive quail
ity.
The climate of all of Northern
Minnesota is i~nvigorating and health
full. During the summers the days
are long, giving just that much more
growing weather. In the winter
while the mercury goes far below
ezro, the cold is of the dry variety
that simply puts the"pep and punch
into the inhabitants. It is a cold that
is far more comfortable than in the
warmer climate where it is much
warmer. .

blessed with sufficient rainfall, the
average annual precipitation being
about 80 inches. There are no dry

From the Kansas City Star.
Into two great cantoninents, Camp
Funston in Kansas and Camp Doniphan
in Oklahoma. are gathered the larger
part of the soldiers from the agricul-
tural states of the middle west. Di-
rectly from the farms are coming, day
after day, thousands of young men who
know much about sullly plows and self
binders, but little of trolley car sched-
ules and labor unions. They are COM
ing from country homes, often their
only city experience being one or two
trips to some midwestern metropolis.
Tanned. broad shouldered. clear eyed,
they make a picture of hearty young
Americanism as they don their uniforms
and become a part of the army.
In the earlier contingents there was
an epidemic of Inconsistencies. but now
the boys come generally with determine
ton and good courage. They seem to
take it as a matter of course. This
very attitude is an indication of a diff
ferent feeling on the part of the folks
at home. The lease takings of this
spring are less mournful than last fall
and 1 have seen many of them. Moth
ers do not show their grief so openly.
