while looking around me. The
parade ground extending in front
of us looked like an ant hill. Peo-
pie were milling around. moving
from group TO group. They're
probably looking for friends and
relatives" Ida explained to me.
We didn't have TO look for our
relatives. Uncle Ernst had been
taken away together with Father
when we were still in Antwerp.
and Grandmother had died in
Marseilles.
My attention focused on some
white figures moving through the
crowd. A woman dressed COM
pletely in white came over to me.
"Wuelle age a tn, moi chou?" she
asked me, bending down to my
level and smiling very sweetly.

THAT FIRST FARM

When the first land of Mime
sofa was put under the pillow or the
hoe viii never be surely known.
Historians do not agree on the To-
cation or the time of the first
farm.
That fabulous Minnesota pio-
neer, Joseph r. Brown, Ia credited
with being the first to farm.
Others say the pioneers of the Sell
kirk colony on the Red river were
the first to plant and harvest. II
is known that the early fur trad
ers at Grand Portage had butter
and milk.
About thirty years ago the Min
nesota Historical Society uncover
ed at McGiil University a letter
Of one George Monk who describ-
ed a journey through what Is now
northern Minnesota in 1907.
At Sandy lake, which may well
be credited with many first things
in Minnesota history. Monk found
two horses, a COW, bull and some
pigs, two hundred twenty bushels
Of potatoes had been raised on
sandy clearing.
The traveller then went on to
Leech lake where he found five
acres under cultivation and
thousand bushels Of potatoes. oats,
some vegetables and Indian corn.
The Monk letter still does not
settle the question of the first.
There was throughout the whole
Indian country some agricultural
practice, crude and remote. The
Chippewas may well have engaged
in a very limited form Of farming
long before the first white man
ever stopped by to visit them.

THE 500 LOCKS

The year 1855 will mark one of
the most important anniversaries
In the history OF Minnesota. Yet
the event of a hundred years ago
which win be observed was the
completion of a great project in
another state and hundreds of
miles distant from the Minnesota
border. 1865 marks the hundredth
anniversary OF the completion Of
the 500 locks.
This great project opened the
lakes, as a whole, to navigation
and unlocked the great mineral re-
serves OF Michigan and Minnesota.
Evidence OF mineral wealth. par
ticuiarly in Michigan, had been
taken TO the 500 and carried over
and around the falls on human
backs. Following the completion
of the locks the great Mesabi
range came to light. Today the
lakes constitute. on
the basis Of tonnage. the second
port In the United States.
Despite the fact that Superior
was land-locked, there were boats
and ships OF substantial size, for
their day, engaged in frontier.com-
merce. One of the early travellers
reported seeing a sloop Of forty
tons In operation In ITO. Ir 1857
Jonathan Carver reported a
schooner on this lake. The North
west Fur Company was operating
a small vessel on Superior In 1900.
Henry Schoolcraft related In 1888
that wheat in bulk. flour in bar
rels and bags and beef were all
being carried on the lake. This APP
pears to be the first record of lake
shipment OF native products, other
than pelts, recorded on Superior.
