FROM OCEAN TO DULUTH |

All of the great engineering feats
did not end when the masons laid the
capstone on the Pyramids of Egypt.
And they never will stop so long as
American pep" retains its kick.
And now after Panama comes an
other feat which will be of yet great
er Importance to the world. From
tidewater to Duluth by ships is the
new cry. There is but little use to
advance any arguments in its favor
for there are no arguments against
it. 1t is one of the great engineer
ing feats that is going to happen
next. The thing is natural sequence
to the conditions that are. When
iron ore was laid down in Ely and on
the Ranges, and coal beds were made
to the East of US, then came the
great waterway-the chain of lakes
connecting up one with the other for
future events to come. 1t seemed like
Divine Plan for use as our needs pro-
gressed. After the Panama canal
was built our engineers began look
ing around for another big job which
could not be done, to go ahead and
do it, and the tidewater to Duluth
undertaking loomed up large before
them The great need of means
of transportation of this kind is
forcing itself upon us as time passes
and newer conditions develop. Ocean
liners warped up to the Duluth docks
is to become a fact indeed. And
the benefits to accrue will not be alb
sorbed by Duluth alone. The entire
United States and the world at
large will share in a project of this
kind. 1t is a gigantic scheme and
when done we will have accomplished
something. And the psychological
moment seems to have come for it's
construction.
And its building should begin and
end as did Panama under the guiding
hand of Uncle Sam and the military.
Panama was built that way and no
suspicion of graft has ever been prov

en- at any point in the great under
taking which other nations had
given up as hopeless. With Uncle
Sam backing it, all will be well. It
then will be built and America will
add another star to its collection
of stars and collected on merit as
well. Now that the war is over and
some two millions of our boys coming
home, let us start them to work on
this tidewater to Duluth job. Ely is
directly interested in this tidewater
proposition. This great project has
far reaching benefit and is not a
second to Panama. It will benefit Ely
in it just proportion. It will be the
greatest thing yet done when the
ships from the "Seven Seas" lie at
anchor in the Duluth harbor. Millions
will be benefited. New industries
will spring up from it all along the
way. Bringing the ocean to Ely and
the heart of the richest part of the
United States is going to be done
within the next few years, and many
today will live to. see its accomplish
ment. If America tackles it, it will
be done. The demand for it is grow
mig. It has simmered for years in
the back of the heads of our great
engineers. The money for it will be
forthcoming when the time is ripe
for its building, and this day is COM
ing swiftly.
The vision of a great waterway
for ocean going ships to Duluth, pas
sing the greatest manufacturing dis
tricts and the greatest coal fields in
the United States and ending in the
very heart of the richest country in
the world is something to dream
about and to secure. From every
side comes a call for it. Canada
wants it and will help to build it. 1t
lies out there to be developed. 1t
can be developed and the coming
generation are going to see its COM
pletion. 1t is the next big event to
happen.

How the mighty have fallen? j.
o. Dental, erstwhile candidate for
governor, must soon begin to serve
a one year sentence in the county
Jail at Brainerd for encouraging
John Kasube, a Litchfield farmer,
not to register for the draft and
helping to conceal him. Dental has
been making speeches in the state
and at meeting in Chisholm few
nights ago where he addressed a
gathering, resolutions were adopted
calling for the president to recall
American troops from Russia in the
interests of harmony-and Bolshev-
ism. After Dental completes the
Brainerd term he viii probably get
a trip to Leavenworth, having been
convicted by the United States court
of violating the espionage act IN
speeches at Hutchinson. He received
five years for the latter crime. While
the authorities are at it, why not
pick up all this class of traitors and
make one grand cleanup? There
are a few in every town who will not
be missed and while the going is
good, load up a few boats and send
them back to the country they love.

To stand up and holler stop thief
and robber at the mining companies
in the face of the handling of public
funds over the Range is like the pot
calling the kettle black. There is
every reason to believe that assess
ments on iron ore properties are not
as high as they should be in COM
parison to the actual values that now
exist but are plenty high enough to
provide for almost every conceivable
comfort and convenience for the
people with little common sense in

COMMUNICATED.
Potatoes of Quality.

That is what the market wants
and is willing to pay for. That is
what Northern Minnesota showed to
the visitors from far and near that
came to Grand Rapids last week to
attend the Sheep Growers, the Po-
tato Growers, as well as the Nor
thern Minnesota Development Asso-
citation meetings.
With close to 5000 acres in po-
tatoes last year, st. Louis County
has two very important lessons to
learn. One is to settle down to two
varieties instead of two hundred. In
stead of mixture of countless var
ieties, let US get down to one early
and one late variety and forget that
there is anything else. Then pro-
ceed to develop these varieties to
the best possible extent of which
they are capable. For Northern
Minnesota we have no better potato,
no bigger yielder, no better keeper
than the old standard white blossom
Green Mountain variety, commonly
known as Carmen No. 1. None bet
ter, but it is a late variety; some
times gets caught in the fall by early
frosts. The Irish Cobbler, an early
white variety with pink or lavendar
blossoms, is bidding for the cham
pionship among our growers Of good
standard potatoes. 1t is mighty
fine potato, and, while it may need
considerable effort to build up pro-
life strains, it is today not only one
of the best of our early potatoes, but
fine keeper as well.
The second lesson is grading.
Quality such as was shown at Grand
Rapids is possible only when grading
and sorting is done rigidly and see-
ing to it that only the very best are
sent to market. What about the
culls and small ones? There is no
better market for that material than
the livestock on the farm. They
may be fed raw, cooked or made into
silage which latter. form bids fair to
solve the high prices of feeding
livestock, at least NATURALLY reduce
the feed bills, and, at the same time
provide one of the best of feeds for
cattle and hogs, and an outlet for
your surplus potatoes as well as culls
and small ones.
The chemical analysis of potato
silage is as follows:

The suggestion that great nation

The need of good highways is rec
ognised more today than ever before
We have got rid of the old notion that
road was something of little more
than local interest and value. The
growth of transportation needs and
the development of the automobile
and motor truck have raised the
country highway to place of dignity
comparable with that of the railroad.
We are learning to think of roads in
terms not of the township and county
but of the state and nation.

That was some welcome home the

Saturday nights. How Stacker must

city turned out, apparently to well
come, the lads home from over there.
What difference there was in the
hearts of the throng from what they
were when the train disappeared
around the curve on its way to Ber-
lin! You remember the day? We
all do, the day the boys left. And
now they are home, many of them
Some will not come home. Heroes
all of them. And it was some home
coming. What joyous note there
was in the old fire whistle then-and
how sad it sounded months ago when
the train pulled out for over there.
But now, even the old fire engine
chuuckled as it cut the corners for
the depot. And Cox's dog on the
engine used both lungs in welcoming
the boys back to Ely and home.
There was a smile on every face.
There were tears of joy in many a
pair of eyes, The boys were safely

supervision. One hundred sailors
responded. The ''gobs" were made
to inhale flu germs. They were
given flu germs to eat and drink.
They had flu germs injected into
their veins. To the discontinue of
the doctors, not one man so exposed
developed any symptoms of the dis
ease. The scientific Inference was
drawn that the flu will have none
but unwilling victims. The hundred
boys who in the interest of science,
allowed themselves to be expert
mented on deserve distinguished

knowing that thousands of their COM

1t begins to look as if we were to
have cement higways from city to
city. We believe this material to be
the thing. Any road built of dirt
and then, whitewashed with gravel,
is an expense bill. 1t is good for a
time, but as the years go by it must
be kept up; and this costs money.
Watch a car whirl by in dry weather
and notice the cloud of dust take to
the woods. This is our money ta-
king wings. In wet weather pools
form and passing car hurls the mud
into the balsams, never to return
without more of our money being ex-
pended. With the building of ce-
ment roads we believe that they
should be built along the lines of a
double track railroad. For, this per-
fectly smooth highway is going to
call for speed-the laws to the con-
trary notwithstanding. Each car
then would have the right-of-way
day or night and in consequence the
danger of collisions would be elm
mated and much greater enjoyment
secured to travellers. Properly laid
we believe that the frost problem in
this northern country could be
solved easily. Cement's the stuff
and it begins to look now as if the
cement factories could take orders
now for an early delivery of thei,
product.
