We of Grand Rapids do not wish to be too exacting, but it does seem that the Bemidji papers gave very shabby accounts of the recent spelling contest held in their town. One of. the pa- pers, however, was honest enough to concede that Grand Rapids caaried off the first honors, while the other gave Fosston credit for half the victory, The postoffice department recently issued a bulletin asking that people addressing letters to parties in lowa, Idaho or Indiana spell the names of the states out in full. By so doing many errors are avoided, For in- stance, the abbreviation “Ia.’? may be taken for Indiana. It is a good idea to spell out the names of all states in addressing letters and then there can be no excuse for errors. Our former townsman, C. E. Lee- man, has been promoted in Cass Lake to the important office ot chief of po- lice, Speaking of the appoimtment the Voice says: ‘ The selection gives very general satisfaction, and the ap- pointee will undoubtedly prove to be a very efficient officer. Mr. Leeman has had a wide exp-rience in the new towns of northern Minnesota. and be- ing a man of excellent judgment, will serve the citizens well as the head of the pelice force of the village.” Clarence Buchanen was down from his Prairie River farm on Monday and bought a complete outfit of modern agricultural implements at the hatd- ware store of W.

Powers of the big hardware house informs the Herald Review that the sale of farm machinery by his firm will trible that of any former year. ‘This is a good indication of the rapid development of this vicinity. The Herald-Review acknowledges the receipt of aminvitation to be pres- ht at the thirty-fourth annual com- fmencemént exercises of the Detroit (Mich.) College of Medicine, on the gth inst, when our former school principal, Mr. R. J. Baskerville, will graduate as a full-fledged M. D. He has completed his course in all sub- jects with honors.

Peter Blasi and Henry Graichen, two woodsmen, have filed suit in the district court of St. Louis county against S. Lekve, justice of the peace at Hibbing, charging him with un- lawtully causing their arrest and im- | prisionment for violating the state quarantine laws and asking for $2,000 damages each. The men were em- ployed in Power & Simpsvn’s camps near Hibbing and lett the camp while the latter was under quarantine. They were arrested. and sentenced to long, terms in the county jail by Judge Lekve. They charged him with refusing to allow them their constitutional right of trial by jury, denied them council and wittness. HH, H. Hawkins is the attorney in both cases. Everything in beef, pork, poultry, mutton, lamb, etc., at Metzger’s mar- ket. : 4 * An Excellent Idea. “From now on, indefinitely, the high school pupils will have some- thiag they have not had before, ex- cept for the past two months, and that is spelling each and every day. The contest last Friday demonstrated most clearly that to meet apponents with any degree of satisfaction in» spelling, as well as in anything else, it requires not only days, but weeks, months andeven years of consant preparation. Bemidji expects to méet these schools again next year, and means to make a better showing than at the last meeting.” Bemidji News: |. Announcement to the Public.

The principal object striven for by growers of strawherries in Minneso- ta,isa late ripening of the crop, which will bring them upon the mar- ket after berries have become scarce. In this respect northern Minnesota presents a distinct advantage. The main crop of strawberries on the ex- periment farm has always been spicked after the 4th of July, and as late as the 10th or 12th. With most farmers the desire is simply to grow a small bed forthe family use, With proper methods, this may be done with very-little labor, Strawberries to suéceed need moisture and fertili- ity, They do best on fairly moist | soil’ not too easily dried out, It is best to manure the bed heavily and plow the previous fall, to guard against drought. Plants. should always be procured and set early in spring, and allowed to grow a year before producing a crop. By far the cheapest and «most _ satisfactory method of laying out the bed is to ; plant in rows four feet apart, setting the plantstwo feet apart in row. This takes 5,500 The runners are then allowed td grow and root, and the space be- tween the rows may be cultivated with a horse. Thisforms a matted row Of plants by fall under good con- ditions. After the ground is frozen the bed is covered with two or three inches of straw or htter clean of weed seeds. Thisislefton as long as possible the next spring, remcv- ingit in time to prevent stunting the growth ofthepiants. This holds back the crop, thus avoiding danger of frost destroying the blos- soms, and getting later berries. It is very important to let the mulch raked trom the plants lie between the rows as it both keeps down weeds and preserves the soil moisture, which the crop demands at the time of ripening. c Many good varieties of strawber— ties have imperfect flowers, lacking the stamens or pollen. These are called imperfect or pistillate kinds, and if planted, must be near perfect flowering|varieties. The latter can plants. per acre} be planted alone and of late the per- fect flowering kinds are more largely used. Of those tried with success at the experiment farm are Bederwood, Lovett, Splendid, Clyde, Ridgeway and the pistillate Haverland, War- field and Crescent. C Herman H. CHAPMAN.
