COUNTY BONDED INDEBTEDNESS
REDUCED $4,000

County bonds issued in 1890, have
just been paid up and returned to the
court house, after having journeyed all
over the United States and even into
foreign lands. The bonds just paid up
by the county totaled 1000, issued
for the building if the county court
house thirty years ago. They were
signed by Frank Ellenbecker, then
county auditor,and John 6tumpf, chair
man of the board of county, commission
.ers at that time. They were made pay
able to bearer, which accounts for the
distance some of them travelled and the
difficulty encountered in getting them
back.
The payment Of these bonds reduces
the county bonded indebtedness to
about 1926, 900. Another issue of about
$15, 900 comes due next year and will be
paid up.

MORE GRANITE ENCOUNTERED
BY SEWER OONTRAQrOR

That granite in considerable quaint
ties underlies the city of Little Falls
was indicated again this week when
men excavating for the sewer on Third
avenue southeast encour cred bed OF
solid black gr4Azte between First and
Second streets. The work OIL tie sew
er has been delayed considerable as it
is necessary to blast the stone with ex-
ira heavy charges Of dynamite.
About six years ago, granite was en-
countered in excavating for the sewer
on First avenue southeast, and the find
ing of the stone two blocks further
down indicates that there is great
deal of it in that vicinity.

TWHVE STACKS OF GRAIN ON
THE0. THIHEN FARM
BURNED

Twelve stacks Of grain on the farm
Of Theodore Thielen of Pierz were
destroyed Wednesday in a fire which
swept over a considerable portion of his
farm. The strong wind famed the
flames and made it impossible to save
but two stacks. A large quantity Of
straw was destroyed.
"A hundred neighbors came to the
place and helped fight the fire which for
time threatened to destroy all the
buildings on the farm. Fortunately the
wind turned a little, thus preventing
very disastrous fire.
Mfr. Thielen had the grain partly in
sured; but the loss will be large.

THESE FARMERS KNOW GOOD

lirmont Daily Sentinel:-Up on the
paved highway between Elk River and
Anoka. in the heart Of the potato coun-
try, farmers are finding their hauling
to market easier than they ever knew
before. All along that pavement, at
every intersection with a lateral road,
strings of potato wagons are to be seen,
coupled together by twos and threes
and hauled on the pavement by one
team of horses.
The farmers haul their potato loads
one team to a wagon on the lateral or
dirt. roads, but as soon as they get to
the pavement they dispense with one Or
two teams by the coupling method made
possible by the pavement and easier
traction.

CENSUS RETURN SHOWS DE-
CREASEaHERE

Little Falls mas p0pulatlOn or o,oOO,
according to report from the census
department at Washington, D. c. This
is decrease of 578, OF 9.5 per cent.
That there has been a gross error
somewhere in taking the census.
is very evident when facts are consid-
cred. In 1910, there was no dearth of
houses and there were vacant business
buildings. At present every house in
the. city that is fit to live in is filed
and in some cases several families
occupy one house. Many new houses
have been built and down town flats
have been added. Furthermore, it is
known that. some persons we're missed
in the count and unless recount is
made and it verifies the census report
received the population of $500 cannot
be considered anything but incorrect.
