RAILROAD RA TIES
PERIL WOODL0TS
MINNESOTA SHOULD SAVE MIL
LIONS ON FUEL, INCREASE FARM
ERs' INCOME SAYS FORESTER

Minnesota could conserve it's forests
properly, could keep inside it's borders
millions of dollars spent every year for
coal and for freight to haul it many
hundreds Of miles, and could add large
sums to the income Of its farmers, if
railroads would cut rates on wood fuel
enough to make its use on large scale
possible, according to William T. Cox,
state forester.
*'In some Minnesota counties which
are considered fairly we'll settled,' Mr..
Cox said, "half the land is woods and
wooded pastures. There is no reason
for considering woodland as waste
land. 1t can and should be made
nearly as profitable as fields in crops.
1.-THE threatened fuel shortage, if as
bad as feared, may not be an unmixed
evil. 1t may direct attention to the
farm woodlot. A million cords of
wood are cut annually in Minnesota,
to be used mostly On farms and in the
smaller villages. But several times
this amount should be cut every year
to improve the farm woollots by TAX
ing out the dead, dying and inferior
trees. There is enough dead timber
alone on farms between the twin cities
and Iowa to go long way toward
heating our homes and places Of bust
ness for a year.
1.-The railroads of this state prob
ably could reduce their rates on fuel
wood considerably and make more
money hauling wood than coal.'

Cases Of long standing should be

VAUDEVILLE WAS GOOD-AT
TENDANCE WASN'T

There's no use talking. The people
of Little Falls do not deserve any
consideration whatever from the local
theatre proprietor. They say it is
queer that no good shows ever come
to the Little Falls theatres and yet
when real entertainment is obtained
they stay II home.

were not Of the mediocre small town
class but the kind that appear only in
the cities having theatres of the class
of the Orpheum Of the west and the
Keith Of the east. Less than a hundred
people attended the two performances.
The program lasted two hours and
there was not dull moment through
out. Wright and Earl appeared first
in singing and dancing act. Their
dancing was clever and Ruby Earl's
quick change of costumes was quite an
act. Ethel Leslie, CARRIED in colonial
costume, appeared in a song cycle. She
has splendid voice, we'll trained.
Dena Cooper and Company put on a
thrilling playlet. Their acting was very
good. The Three Beauties gave sing

deon players, drew lot of applause.
The man sang "laughing song"
which took well. Edna Knowles and
Roger Hurst were about as active and
noisy a team as ever appeared on the
vaudeville stage. They pulled lot of
"tit-for-tat' stuff and some good dan
cling. The program closed with farce
comedy "The Brazilian Widow,' by
the entire company. This play is not
new but is one of the greatest laugh
producers ever staged.
From here the company left for Sank

spend more on purebreds because he
sees greater possibilities in them, and
consequently takes more interest in
them, feeding them better and build
ing better barns to house them. He
does not need to do this, but usually
he finds that 1t pays him in gross re-
turns and in net returns.
The results would have been the
same, though possibly not in the same
degree, if better care and feed had
been given to good grade herd. But
it sometimes takes the stimulation
supplied by the ownership Of a few
purebreds to induce a man to improve
his practices.
