in that place called Dead Mans Coulee,
People say there is a ha'nt,
But I'll bet if he's there this year,
He is gettin' mighty giant.
Wonder if that is the reason
For that thing | otter hear
Hear the working people sayin'
Ghosts won't walk so much this year."
Some folks get all scared and jumpy
When of ghosts they chance to talk,
But my dad just smiles at mama,
"Today's the day the ghost will walk"
I have seen ghosts in a picture:
You can look right through them to;
Don't seem like they try to fool you
Like the live folks sometimes do.
Seems like | cam get all fussy,
Seem spooks like some folks do,
Cause the things that am scared of
Are the things | can't see through.

Before Bill quite realized where he was,
Miss Wister had his shoes OF and his collar
unfastened but he absolutely refused to sur

He was aware that a tear cleaned on the
lashes Of one of Miss WiSters big blue eyes.

Let 'em come" said Bill.
When the door closed he sat down on the
bed to think things over. 1t was all perfectly
clear. This Chadd fellow had stolen his pa
pers, his bag-everythingi-and skipped ashore
Well, he'd have to wait, that was all He
couldn't very easily swim back to Gibraltar.
He was suddenly aware that he ached in
almost every bone and muscle and that the
bed felt soft and inviting. Such pair Of blue

presumed to own he found under the pillow.
five minutes later he was In them and between

Miss Wister came in thrust thermometer

liked the little palm.

ers will be on hand to offer instruc-
ton in the many technical and vo-
cational courses which make up the
course Of study. During the past
summer substantial improvements
have been made on the campus of
the Agricultural School. The new
gymnasium has been completely
equipped with lockers and other
necessary equipment. A complete
new system of water mains, fire
protection and a new CABBAGE dis
posal plant has been provided to
take care of the growing needs of
the institution.
AS in the past, the main emphasis
in school will be given to the regu-
lar course of three years, of six
months each. Boys select a large
portion of their work in any one of
these lines: Agronomy, Animal
Husbandry, or Agricultural Engi-
neering; while girls receive special
training in Home Management,
Dressmaking, Home Nursing, Pub
lie Speaking, Business Training and
Music. Each year an increasing
number Of graduates Of the three
years course wish to go on to col
lege or to secure additional training
in special lines and to make this
possible the Morris School offers
an Advanced or fourth year, grad
yates of which are admitted to Uni
versities or Colleges in the State
without examination. A special
business course is also available to
High School graduates and others
who wish advanced training in this
line.

Morris School Opens Sept. 20
The fall term at the West Central
School Of Agriculture, which will
open on Monday, September 18th,
for the 21st school year, will again
see large enrolment of young
men and young women from the
farm homes of West Central Min
nesota. In commenting on the fact
that many young men are now
availing themselves of the opport-
unity to obtain a thorough techni-
cal education in scientific agri-
sulture such as is offered at the
Morris Farm School, Superintend-
ent p. e. Miller says that if the fu-
ture can be judged by the past,
now is an ideal time for young men
to interest themselves in such train
ing as is afforded at the Agricul-
tural School. With land at the
lowest price since the days of. the
homesteaders and the many oppor-
tunities to acquire farm holdings,
it would seem that now is the time
to lay the foundation for a success

pressions Of the past have all been
followed by substantial periods Of
prosperity and farming has been no
exception to this rule. It is pre-
dicted that when the up-swina
comes the farmer will be included.

Better Way to Can Blueberries
for Pie

Blueberries for use in pie and
cake will be much better if canned
by the method described below than
if put up in syrup or water for
culinary purposes, says Miss Inez
M. Hobart, foods specialist of the
Minnesota agricultural extension
service.
Clean and wash the berries.
Place from 1 to quarts in a
square of cheesecloth. Gather up
the corners of the cloth and dip
into kettle of boiling water from
Is to 80 seconds, depending upon
the relative volumes of water and
fruit. The blanching should pro-
coed until just before the berries
begin to lose juice; then cold dip
Immediately. AS soon as cooled,
pack into jars tightly as possible
without crushing, partially seal and
process Pint jars Is minutes,
quart jars 20 minutes.
Blackberries, raspberries, and
currants, for culinary purposes, may
be canned in the same manner.
Grapes packed into jars so close
ly that they set free sufficient juice
to cover them are also very salts
factory.
The advantages in canning small
fruits by this method are tnat the
flavor is more like the fresh fruit,
there is no expense for sugar, the
small amount of liquor is desirable
for culinary purposes, the fruit or
juice may be used for jellies or
jams the same as fresh fruit, and
the shrinking of the fruit by blanch-
ing and the close packing, as in the
case of the grapes, economies on
the use of jars.

sus taken by the Minnesota High
way department. Although the in
crease is not as large as in some
years, Commissioner c. M. Bah
cock says it indicates that Mime
sofa is in better shape than other
states, many of which have shown
decrease in their traffic counts.
The increase, however, is not con-
sidered as good an index of actual
traffic as gasoline consumption.
Mr.. Babcock adds. Gasoline in
shipments for the first eight
months Of 1881, deducting gasoline
used for other than motor vehicle
purposes, were II per cent greater
than in the same months last wear.
The heavy construction program,
which reached it's peak in August
when the traffic count was taken
shifted much traffic to the county
roads.
The census summary showed an
increase in Minnesota passenger
cars and trucks Of all classes
while buses, horses-drawn yehic-
les, and automobiles from other
states fell off slightly. These COM
PARSONS are based on counts at
3O9 places where counts were
made at 1863 points, but due to de-
tours and construction, there were
many routes where the counts
were not taken at the same places
both years, and these are omitted

was taken for seven consecutive
days, August 8 to 9, from 6 A. M
to midnight. The average daily
traffic at the stations where
