The Deer River paper gives the following: “Fred Ghurchill writes the News this week stating he has located at Heron, Mont., and at the time of writing he was in Portland, Ore., purchasing an outfit and supplies with which to start in logging at Heron, He invites all Deer Riverites going west to call on him,” C. L. Burnett returned to his home in Brainard last week after a visit here of several days. Mr, Burnett 1s en- gaged in the jewelry business at Brainerd, and if we may judge from appearances he js anxious to get setil- ed down to housekeeping, although he is still a single man. It is published that New York city schools abandoned the vertical sys- tem of penmanship and returned to the slanting style. Criticisms from busi- ness houses of the vertical style brought in by graduates of the school are said to have brought about the change. A Bemidji paper seems to think its town is growing quite metropolitan because one of the retail firms — there- away has adopted the policy of clos- ing their business at 8 o'clock p. m. except on Saturdays. — Pshaw, that’s nothing. Allthe Grand Rapids mer- chants close up at 6:30 and don’t think anything about it.

Farmer readers of the Herald-Rev- iew should not fail to read the article in this issue on millet as fodder by Supt. H. H. Chapman of the Grand Rapids state Experimental farm. He has experimented during the past four years with millet on different kinds of soil and what he has to say should be of especial interest to the farmers of northeastern Minnesota. Supt. Chapman’s weekly bulletins will no doubt prove of much value and they should be closely followed by all who are interested 1n iculture, Judge McCletahan Convened the June Term at 10 o’clock Tuesday Morning. [ies Judge W. S$. McClenahan arrived from Brainerd Monday noon and at 10 o’clock ‘Tuesday morning he con- vened district court for the June term, The grand jury was immediately sworn in and instructed in their duties, after which they repaired to the school superintende room, there to deliberate on the misdeeds of others. Reporter Moody not having arrived, the court adjourned unul two o’clock in the afternoon. ‘The first vs. the Itasca Lumber company. ‘This resulted in a disagreement. Anderson alleges that he lost cedar posis and poles to the value of $6,000 by fire caused from sparks from an Itasca Lumber company railroad engine. Attorneys Frank F, Price, of Grand Rapids, and J. N. True of Aitkia, are representing the plaintiff, and At- torney J. A. Kellogg, of Minneapol:s, appeared for the defendants. This action occupied the attention of the court anda jury unul yesterday noon. As we go to press the jury: is still out, Yesterday afternoon the case of Katie Hodgedon ad James N. ‘True vs. the Pokegama Lumber company and H. R. King was called and is still on. Up to the present po indictments have been publicly announced by the grand jury. It is rumored, although not verified, that on Thursday the jury insisted upon investigating the Randolph case. The particulars ot the killing of one-armed Sullivan at Rainy Lake last winter by Wm. Ran- dolph is still fresh in the minds of Herald-Review readers and does not need repetition. ‘The evidence adduc- ed at the preliminary hearing went to show pretty conclusively that the shooting was done in self deiense and it is not thought that a conviction 11 in any degree can be secured. How- ever, itis reported that the jury de- mande‘i witnesses from Rainy Lake and that a deputy sheriff was dis- patched thither on Thursday. If an indictment 1s returned against Ran- dolph and the case tried, it will cost Itasca county thousands of dollars, with litthé chance for a conviction— in the evidence already at hand. ‘Thej witneses sent for cannot possibly ar- rive until Thursday of next week, In the meantime the civil calendar will have been disposed of and the court will be ready to adjourn. THE VALUE OF MILLET. Superintendent Chapman Writes Instruct- ively on the Subject of Millet Fodder. The following press bulletin was issued on the 8rd by Supt. H. I. Chapman, cf the Experiment farm: “Millet may be grown when a crop of hay is desired the same season, | either from failure of gri to catch, winter killing, or snortage of feed. 1b makes one of the best catch crops. Millet will grow upon aay soil, but} produces larger crops on heavy or new} land, which contains pleuty of veget- able matter.

The grouud may be} spring plowed, especially if late sown, or it may be plowed in fall aud kept in condition by harrowing once a week till sown. Of the ordinary kinds sow three pecks of seed per acre For hay, either the cummon, or the Germau, sometimes cailed | Goldeu millet, may be sown. The latter produces larger yields ‘but is about two weeks later in ripening than the common millet. If commen millet is used, it may be sown as late as July Ist <A field sown on June 27th in 1900 on the Experiment farm, yielded one and a half tons per acre. German millet should not be sown much after June 15th. Under goud conditions yields of two and two and a half tons may be expected. Hog millet produces a rather cou,se fod- der, and is usually grown for seed which may be fed to chickens and hogs. ‘The new Japanese millet is very much larger and coarser than the common kinds. Millet is some- reason jt is wise to sow the smaller varieties and, unless sown fur a catch crop, to get them in about June Ist. Millet should be cut for hay when it is fully headed outs and before the was cut for hay un September 4th and}! what difficult to cure and for this & and the seeds are very indigestible and liable to cause impactious when fed to cows or horses. It should be cured in cocks and turned out if rained on and before storing. When cut at the proper season and well cured it makes an excellent feed for cattle, sheep and horses.” “Don’t Be Fight,” Boys. Murray Taylor of the Deer River rag has taken it upon himself to force the village council of that: municipal- ity to resign. ‘The following does not fall far sbort of an attempt at black- mail, and.if Murray ‘don’t watch out” he may find himself:in a worse pickle than he pretends to think the council is now in. This is what he says in his last issue: ‘All members of the village council still refuse to resign and the proceedings instituted against them by the citizens will be iu all probability aired in district, | court this week, The news advises the parties interested to’ resign, as the matter will then drop. If they presist in fighting, however, there is certain to be some horrible skeletons showed and to the sorrow of those concerned.” The Herald-Review de- | sires tu give its Deer River contem- porary credit for the word “showed ” as used above, and other jewels in the quotation. A Great Magazine. The lady who fails to get a copy of the “Delineator” for July will not be up to date on the fashions for the summer. ‘he Herald-Review is in receipt of an early copy of that excellent» magazine for next month, and it is no exaggeration to say that it excells any similar publi- cation that has yet reached our fashion editor. This issue not only contains much more than the ordin- ary amount. of reading matter and superb illustrations of the very latest fashions fur women, misses and child- ren, but in addition it has a most in- teresting article on the pan-American exposition, artistically illustrated with three-color printing taken directly from the water-color sketches of C, Y¥. Turner, director of color to the pan-American exposition. All (the beautiful effects of the orginals are reproduced and perhaps nv other magazine in the world will be able to equal this effort of the Deliveator. An Enjoyable Affair. The entertainment given by the pupils of Sister Dorothea at Village hall Wednesday evening was well at- tended and thoroughly enjoyed by the large audience. The splendid pro- gram as published last week was Tully presented. Each number was a credit to those who peformed aud was gratifyiug evidence that the students under Sister Dorothea are making uuusual progress in their music, Apples And Wheat. We hear much of the wheat and lit- that is, if any relablility can be placed | tle of the apple crop, yet the latter is For Women. worth the most money, says the Dul- News ‘Tribune. According to the authority the total apple crop in 1900 15,000,000 barrells. Supposing that an average price of $2 a barrell was obtained the aggregated value of the crop was $430,000,000. The aver- age value of wheat is but little over $300,009,000-annually. By this esti- mate the apple cropis worth 50 per cent more than the wheat. ‘There is a reoson for this state of affairs. A European market for American fruit has been obtained.. Already the ex- ports of fresh apples exceed 4,000,000 barrels a year. Abroad these apples bring nearer $4 than $2 a barrel. Evenat such prices the exports have increased every year until Amer apples havs a fixed value from Liver- pool to St. Petersburg.

Changes For the best are constantly being made. There is an evo- lution going on all the time in the manufacture of shoe ‘The, up-to-date shoedeale alive to this fact; yet many could afford to purchase the glove-fitting shoes—cost too much, Then it was that the purchase of a new pair of shoes was anticipated with dread, because during the “breaking-in” period much discomfort was experienced, and the old pair was given up with reluctance. It was the sacrifice of comfort in the old shoes to style and appear- ance in the new. Today the manufacture of 5 reached the stage of speciali- zation, the period wher yast fortune is invested in special tools and machinery for the production of one special design, which has been brought to a state of perfection by the employ- ment of the best shoe brains in the country, the whole en- ergy devoted to combining in the highest degree of com- fort with grace style and durability. Thus we have the largest manufacturers of fine shves in the world pro- ducing the Douglass shoe for men, Queen Quality for wi men and Albright for mis: and children. Men and wo- men who formerly paid from $5 to $6 for their shoes find in the above named lines a thoroughly bigh grade shoe of unust sible price of $3.50 for Douglass shoe for men and $3-for Queen Qualily shoe for women.
