TESTING THE LAW.

The Bessette law is now going
through the legal procedure to de-
termine if it is constitutional.
There is little doubt that the law
will be upheld. Many have said
that the farmers of Northern Min
nesota will derive more benefit
from this law than from any other
law on the statute books.
1t comes at an opportune time.
Tae slump in the prices hit the
farmers very nard, the farmers may
stay home and develop their place.;
Each farmer may put in n bid to
clear his own land. He is in a
position to do the work cheaper
than it can be done by an outside
contractor. From time to time the
engineer in charge will inspect the
work and issue certificates for pay
up to rs per cent of the work done.
Since it may require a maximum
of 100 days between the time the
original petition is filed and the
hearing, it is available for all who
are planning on doing clearing un-
der this law the coming fall to
start their petitions now. Call az
the county agents Office for any
assistance you may need in starting
your petitions.

A Poppy FOR REMEMBRANCE.

Nc more simple flower whose GRIM
son petals
Bloom and droop and fall
Before eacn setting sun;
But more
II typifies the blood of those
Who died but yesterday
Upon the shell torn fields of France.
It symbolizes all too well
The sacrifice of those
Who walk the silent valleys OF che
deep.
Il brings to us the wind tossed sea
Which shelters them.
Within its heart We see
The still, white crosses
Row on narrow row,
Which sentinel the hills,
Where sleep in countless numbers
Our Legion Of The Dead.
And glancing deeper still
Within the poppy's bleeding hear:
We see those others
On their beds of pain
Or stumbling haltingly
Along the Way of Life
The sick, the lame, the blind;
And side by side with them,
The widowed mother, the orphan
and The wife.
A simpe flower, It's true,
But more,
A symbol of that sacrifice
Which made and kept us free.
And so,
Lest memory dim with time,
We wear today,
A poppy FOR REMEMBRANCE.

Bricks Have Been Long In Use.

Inc Bible tells Of the manufacture
anu use of bricks. The most ancient
records contain references to this
building material. AS early as the
year A A. D. the Romans used them
IN england. The actual scientific and
mass production of bricks did not be-
gin until 1856, when Alfred the Great
directed that bricks be manufactured
under government supervision. His
tory does not tell of another ruler
VINO became deeply interested in this
industry until Charles l, who, in 1925,
thought it necessary to regulate the
size OF bricks, so that Transportation
dlmculties could be overcome. An
american inventor by the name of
Spence is credited with the first brick
making machine, but the British claim
that one Clayton, whose patent was
granted in 1862, was the first to pro-
duce brick by steam at the rate of
about 1000 an hour.
