PAPER REPRESENTLD FO FOREIGN GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES Have you been “Lamarized”? Have you noticed the scarcety of flies scince the “Swatting campaign” has begun? There’ll be some great “Mulhalliz- ing” now that hoth houses have be- gun to investigate. Now that the merry-go-around has left the city, save your nickles for the Sunday school. A move to place a public sanitary drinking fountain on several of the principal street corners in our city 1s now in order. When the investigators get wise and learn that some of the lobbyists than wonder what will happen? get more pay congress,men, The fact that every thing is being taken out of politics calls to mind the idea that hotels and restaurants might be dealt with accordingly. That seed school which opens at St. Paul July 21 is going to be as good for the state as the seed law. It is a mighty fine thing for a farmer to kuow that when he plants seed, that it’s going to grow. These fake seed concerns will have to go to other fields in order to get the farmer to reap a harvestless harvest. It has been good going for them here be- cause Minnesota soil” would sprout almost any kind of old seed and if nothing but good seed is sown, there is no limit as to what this state will accomplish. : He Met His Match A boy sat on a rail fence enclosing a corn-field. A city chap, passing by said: , “Your corn looks kind of yellow boob. “Yep; that’s the kind we planted,” replied the boob. “It don’t look like you would get more than half crop,” said the city chap. “Nope; we don’t expect to; the landlord gets the other half.” retort- ed the youngster. The stranger hesitated a moment and then ventured: “You are not very far from a fool, are you my boy?”" “Nope, not more’n ten feet,” said the boy, and the city chap moved on.— Ex. . Kelly Gives Reasons Why THERE are numerous valid rea- sons why Thief River Fa'lls, is NOT the logical location for the proposed new normal school. It is not central- ly located, it has not the population tributary nor the most high school scholars, without including territory and those scholars that rightfully belong to the Moorhead district, nor would that location “GIVE THE GREATEST POSSIBLE ADVANT- AGE TO THE LARGEST UNSER- VED POPULATION.” Which should be the test for the commission to ap- ply in deciding what should be a friendly .contest, decided strictly on the merits of the case, The writer is personally acquainted with but one of the flve members: chosen to select the site and it is not our intention to cast any reflections on the integrety, or high moral character of any one of them, but it sometimes requires strenuous methods to awaken a peo- ple or body of men to the danger of a misstep or a wrong conclusion in deciding matters of vital interest. There is not a particle of doubt that politicians (and good fellows too) have been and are at work dis- crediting some towns in favor of other sites, REGARDLESS OF THE MERITS INVOLVED and that they have more than one subject need not be gone into at this time, but with the members put on their guard and the data furfiished by the different THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER "‘nv_e wire” organizations in the co: peting towns—eliminating the 50 mile ffirce—jt is to be hoped that the air is clearing and that the result may be a credit to the commission and a deserved homor to the Great Pine belt of Northern Minnesota; Regarding the lengthy answer(?) to our statement of two weeks ago, Editor Cutler of the News Press very carefully avoids answering one ar- gument set forth in the JOURNAL against the location at Thief River Falls, but contents himself by calling the writer a silly old man who has a record for peevishness,” which does not matter, but as to being “inspired by a man who is known as an artful politican” etc., we deny the soft im- peachment and in fact are utterly in the dark as to who the News Press man has reference to Who it is?—Menahga Journal, EXEEEEE R R XX L ] The House, the Yard, E and the Garden. * & - - - L] - ks E ) By A F. WOODS, Dean, De- - partment of Agriculture, Uni- versity Farm, St. Paul. o E R R R R ] HOUSE conveniences to save work and increase the attractiveness of the home are now essential on a modern farm. A good bath tub, with hot and cold water from the kitchen range, and a good drainage and sewage dis- posal system are not expensive and are within the reach of many farm- ers. Water should be piped to the house, and the windows and doors should be carefully screened to-keep out flies and mosquitos. L THE YARD around the home should be made attractive and beau- tiful with trees, grass, and flowers. They have a restful and uplifting in- fluence on any tired soul, and greatly increase the value and salability of the property while the cost of plant- ing and care is trifling. o ) THE GARDEN. Most successful farmers are careful to have a good garden. It is usually carefully fenced to keep out chickens, dogs, and stray animals and the soil is made rich with barnyard compost. It should be located as conveniently as possible to the dwelling house, but not in the front yard. Too little attention is given as a rule to planning the cropping system of the garden. The vegetables must not be grown on the same spot each season, but like other crops, must be rotated to prevent the accumulation in the soil of injurious insects, fungi, and bacteria. With a little planning a succession of vegetables, fruits, and flowers can be provided for the spring, summer, and fall, with a con- siderable supply for canning and for winter use. Fruits and vegetables not only in- crease the healthfulness and at- tractiveness of the daily bill of fare, buf they save a great deal of ex- pense, and are far better than the canned goods from the store. The farmer who sets a good table, well supplied with fruits and vegetables, is making a high bid to attract and keep good farm help. okl o ok ok - - - - DOCTOR OF AGRICULTURE Dean A. F.

The sun was down in the west; twilight was fall- ing. The turkey buzzards settled to rest, and all was quiet. Suddenly the brooding silence of the dense forest was broken. There came the sound of voices and the clink of armor. Through the underbrush and tangled vines, cutting a way with their swords, burst two men. Before them swept a mighty, rush- ing river. They halted on the bank, and were joined in a few min- utes by other soldiers bearing a can- vass-covered figure. Night had now fallen. Only a single - torch of burning pine branches illuminated the darkness. The lttle band of men tied some logs together, played upon. them the body, weighted with a heavy stone, and floated this crude raft out upon the river. In midstream they quiet- ly pushed the body overboard, watched the waters close over it, and then sadly made their way back to shore, Such was the pathetic ending of Fernando de Soto, discoverer of the Mississippi River. His wife in Spain watched through many weary months for his return; but she watched in vain. De Soto as born about 1500 at Badajoz, Estremadura, Spain. After leaving school he went in 1519 with his patron, Pedrarias, on an expedi- tion to Darien in Panama. After this he explored the coast of Guatemala and Yucatan, and in 1532 led 300 volunteers to aid Pizarro in Peru. He helped to conquer the land of the Incas, and was so successful that when he returned to Spain he pos- sessed a fortune of 180,000 ducats. He married the daughter of his old patron Pedrarias, and settled down to a happy home existence. But reports came to him of the tabulous wealth of Florida, and the wanderlust seized him again. Selling much of his property, leaving wife and friends and home, he set off in 1538 with several hundred foot sold- iers and horses. From Havana he went, in 1539, to Tampa Bay on the west coast of Florida. Thence he led his men for four long years in a weary and unsuccessful search for gold, traversing much of the south- eastern part of the continent, through dense forests, through ter- rible swamps, and across swollen rivers. He was a stern, cruel master, and fire and slaughter followed in REAPING BENEFIT The Story of America in Pictures EXPLORERS “Learn One Thing Every Day” & No. 1.
