One indication of improved con- ditions in Itasca county is the number of final proofs that are being made be- fore the clerk of court and judge of probate these days, Many or the proofs now being offered are from far- mers who have made: unusually large improvements upon their claims, and in addition have added much_ stock to their farmes. At the rate of actual settlement Itasca county will have a farming element in five years that will be sufficient to support a more_ thrifty town than even Grand Rapids now iS. “This is the winter of out discén- tent,” and the wind blows mighty strong unless you have storm doors and windows on your house. W. V. Fuller & Co. are making storm sash, and by leaving your order now you will get the advantage of a littt2 better price, and in addition will be sure of getting on the storm windows and doors in time. Call at their shop and leave your order early and thus be sure of being supplied by the time real cold weather begins. And rem- ember, too, that W. V. Fuller & Co., make the very best, and a little in- quiry will convince you that their prices are right. It doesn’t costa great deal to have storm protectors at tached to your house. Col.W.M. Liggitt, dean of the college of agriculture and member of the board of regents of the State Univer- sity, and Prof. Samual B. Green, 1n- structor m the department of horticul- ture, were visitors at the Experimental station this week. ‘They found the affairs of the Northeastern station in very satisfactory condition, and are very much pleased with the report that is to be shortly issued covering the work of the past season. Mr. Hopkins, who has charge of the station for the present, is getting ready for the winter. He has already dis- posed of considerable surplus of last season’s crops, and in this way a neat sum will be realized to apply toward the support of the farm. The First Victim. ‘John Benson, of Richland, Ind., was accidently shot by W. P. Cook, of the same place, this morning about 7 o'clock in the vicinity of Cochran’s camp. Benson was a man about fifty-five years of age, unmarried. The shooting was entirely accidental and no blame can attach to Mr. Cook. JOE LAISUR AFTER DUCKS. He Discovers a Small Flock and Makes Some Nice Shots. One day last week Joe Laisur was out on his farm, clearing up a little brush-and otherwise preparing for his next year’s agricultural operations. Like most everyone these days, he had his game eye on the look-out for any stray ducks that might drop into He had _ forgotten his gun, and when eight or ten mag- nificent specimens of the mallard variety—is Joe thought—floated on the placid Pokegama in plain view, the temptation was more than he could withstand. Mounting his bicy- cle he started for town at a break- neck speed. Reaching the Hotel Gladstone, Joe frantically rushed up to Dan Doran and communicated to him between breaths what great game he had giscovered and urged the hotel man to hitch up and start for the ducks without delay. Dan at once caught the fever from Joe’s en- thusiasm and in an incredibly short period the two were headed for the lake behind Dan’s best, armed with shot guns. Making a cautious cir- | cuit through underbrush and over windfalls they finally reached the point desired. Sure enough, there were the ducks, within easy range, and a more inviting shot was never presented to the eye of sport. ‘Taking careful aim, both fired both barrells, | and four ducks lay dead. The re- maining “mallards” moved* away on_ the water a short distance, but not a wing fluttered in the air. They turned and looked with a sort of stupid wonderment in the direction of their dead comrades. Did sports- men ever before have such luck? Another steady aim, another deadly shot, and three more were ready for the bag. Just at this critical and ex- citing moment, Mrs. L. L. Jensen and her httle son appeared upon the scene. ‘That’s nice business for two prominent citizens to be engaged in— shooting a neighbor’s. ducks.” Dan stood transfixed with terror as the truth dawned upon him, but Joe had | not yet been made to realize that his | game was from the Jenson barn-yard, and proposed to defend his rights | in this free country. “Ducks on) this lake are no more the property of one person than another.

Joe dropped his gun and looked about asif in search of some place to hide. But he was caugnt and would have to face the music. “How much are they worth?” Dan enquired. “One dol- lar apiece,” repiled the lady. The bill was paid, and the two hunters slowly returned to town, On the way they entered a solemn agreement never to menuon the incident to any living soul- ‘They neglected, how- ever, to have Mrs, Jenson agree to the compact, and as a result the secret became current comment the next day.

The indications point very strongly to a decided increase of business in Grand Rapids during the present sea- son. In fact, it begins to look some- what like old times. ‘The reason is easily ascertained. First of all, the cutting of timber on the reservation results in the profitable employment of all local jobbers who have small logging outfits. ‘Through the plan adopted they are enabled to give satisfactory security for supplies and can thus »put into active operation a producing force that buys directly trom Grand Rapids’ merchants. itasca ‘county workmen are employed, who spend their earnings at home. A large number of the Indians are also given employment at good wages, and they, too, are local consumers. ‘There are enormous tracts of valuable pine lying on the ground awaiting the ax of the woodman or the ever-pres- ent and active worm or destruction by rot. ‘The applications* already made indicate that much of the tmber in immediate danger of destruction will be put in this winter. In addition to the work on the reservation, it is esti- mated that the fog cutin this vicinity will be much larger than a year ago. ‘The heaviest operators will increase the number of men employed last year nearly vic-dird, aud added to this will be several ucw firms. Wages are mereased Considcrauly and as a! consequence the men will be able to) buy more ciothes and more of evry - thing in which they invest thet cara- | ings than they couid during the past three yeas.
