The pine timber sold at an average of $8 per thousand feet, the balance at an average of $4 per 1,000. Mr, Preus presents a review of the work done in rescaling tracts where timber was alleged to have been cut and no proper report of the amount so cut made. This work, says the auditor, has resulted in the state recovering $62,- 790 more from lumber companies than would-have been paid had the rescale not been made. In addition, $12,526 has been re- covered from 93 logging companies for trespass and $19,696 from inter- est on penalties on overdue drafts and extension of permits, making a total of $94,915.39 as a result of the tim- ber investigation authorized by the state timber board last spring.

K KKKKKKKK KK KKK KK ¢HiS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ° ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES © NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRFANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIE® (By United Press) London, Dec. 18.—American Am- bassador Page delivered the German peace note to the British foreign of- fice today. The biggest critic is himself the most logical subject of criticism. Don't be a crit. ‘We want an airship. We want to get up among the clouds and see if we can locate the cost of living. Scientists are now making war ma- terial out of everything but wind. ‘That, however, is eternally mort- gaged to the politicians. Charles E. Hughes is again a can- didate for president. This time it is the presidency of the New York Bar association. We hope that he will be successful. Watch Minnesota grow. Pupils enrolled in the public schools in Min- nesota numbered 481,583 during the last year, compared with 466,060 the year before. A movement 1s now on foot to manufacture print paper at the state prison at Stillwater. The plan is a good one, ag the paper trust has already deliberately squeezed thou- sands of dollars out of the pockets of the people of. this state. There is aboundant material here, and this will be the means of throttling this big paper trust before it does any more damage. The proposition will be placed in the hands of the next legislature.—Sandstone Courier. Splitting Headaches Stopped! Oh, the awful agony! No words can de- scribe the suffering.

For sale by THE CITY DRUG STORE MINNESOTA HENS. Minnesota hens are not on a strike. They would lay an egg every day during the winter months of high egg prices if they could. But the farm- ers of the state won’t let them. This is an explanation of the egg shortage given by Professor A. C. Smith, head of the poultry depart- ment of the college of agriculture. “The hens haven’t a chance in the world to lay. Many are lucky to be able to survive the winters,” the pro- fessor said. “The improper selection of stock, the cold and inadequate housing fa- cilities for the flock, the untimely hatching of a great percentage of the chickens and the insufficient food given them, are the chief reasons why Minnesota hens will not and cannot laying during the winter. “After selecting a good laying stock, the hatching periods should be * ‘timed’ so that the laying season will begin about Nov. 1, when egg prices begin to soar,” Professor Smith as- serted. “And no hen,” said the professor, “will lay when she is hunched up on the roost all day with her feet buried in her feathers to keep warm.” ity about themselves.
