REBUILDING THEIR FARMS
Rapid Strides Made In Fire Swept
Areas In North State.


Duluth, Mimi, April 22.-Farms and
the holdings of settlers In Northern
Minnesota which were devastated by
the forest fires of 1913 will make a
marked stride toward return to nor
NAL during the summer, in the opin-
ion of e. p. Gibson, agricultural agent
for st. Louis county, who reports an
unusually busy early season for his
territory.
Rapid progress has peen made dur
ing the past winter in the rebuilding of
homes and farm buildings laid waste
by the flames, the agent said. Farm
ers, during the summer months, will
be able accordingly to devote more
Mr.. Gibson believes.
Livestock housing is not what it
was before the fire." he said, "but
the numerous portable sawmills are
busy throughout the burntover area
and the section will witness ire
mendous increase in farm building
construction. This will mean an in
crease in crops and herds, with bet
ter facilities to house them"
Now that the reconstruction work
has reached more normal stage,
market farmers in st. Louis county,
who have put their land to coarser
crops, such as potatoes and hay, while
they were engaged in building homes
farm buildings and herds, are expect
ed to resume the intensive market
gardening which this territory is wide
ly known for.

elect delegates to the state and con-
gessional conventions.
Another election bill is the propos-
ed constitutional amendment, which
would permit a voter who has moved
out of his old precinct to another in
the same county within thirty DAYS
of election to vote in his old precinct.
Educational Tax Levy.
The proposal to substitute an an
nual tax levy of two bills for state
aid to schools for the biennial ap-
preparation failed. Neither the uni
versity nor the normal schools re-
ceived all the money they asked for.
but they will have more than SILL
100000 to work with during the next
two years. Had the university re-
ceived all the appropriations asked it
would have had about $14,0OO,OOO;;
The teachers colleges or normal
S1,5O0,OO0. For state aid to high,
graded and rural schools nearly ST.
100000 has been appropriated. an
increase of about $777,000 over the
appropriation of two years ago.
The new highway laws provide
for the administration of the sys-
tenn created by the adoption OF the
constitutional amendment last year
by a single commissioner, establish
a complete schedule of motor vehicle
taxes, from the proceeds of which
the states portion OF the expense
Of construction and maintenance will
be paid; and regulate as completely
as II can be regulated in the early
stages of highway construction. They
also provide for reimbursements to
counties which advanced money for
preliminary construction Of trunk
highways by the only means within
the power of the legislature, that is
by permitting the counties to issue
bonds covering their expense, the state
to pay the interest and to retire the
bonds when they become due.
Soldiers Bonus Increased.
The soldiers bonus was Increased
and the sale Of additional bonds au-
thorized TO enable the bonus board to
complete at once the bonuses due.
Moreover. supplementary act was
passed to admit to the benefits of the
bonus men who served creditably but
were denied the benefits under the
extended to include immediate rela
tives and defendants of deceased
service men. The extensions will add
s3.000,0 900 to the states expenditures

Relief for the settlers in North
