What Does This Mean? The following is clipped from Tues- day’s Duluth Herald: “UV. M. Guan, of Grand Rapids, was at the St. Louis last night on his way to St. Paul. He said that exploratory operations were still going on actively on sup- posed iron properties near Rapids. ‘Che proving up work on the Arcturus is still in progress, Re- ports received from 1ts customers in- dicate that they are especially weil pleased with the clearness of the product, which is attributed to the purity of water used in pulp grinding andin putting the stuff over the machine.” New Town of Nashwauk Surveyors started this week plat- ing the new town of Nashwauk, in section » fifteen miles south- west of Hibbing. The surveyors are pushing the work, and the townsite company wili put-acrew on to clear the land as soon as the surveying is far enough advanced. It is the hope of the company to be able to place the lots on the market early in July. That the town will spring into being with truly western suddenness there is no doubt, judging from the number of inquiries that daily re-ch the company’s office in this city. All lines of business, even to a newspaper office, are awaiting the word, and as soopeas the platis opened the move wiil commence and a town will build up even in a shorter space of time, it is predicted, than did Chisholm, which made a record. No town on the range has opened with such bright prospects aS surround Nashwauk. ‘The big Deering Harvester company mine, which is to be known as the Hawkins, with its forty millions of tons of irou ore, is now being rapidly developed, and there are many other large properties both east and west of the new town that will be opened another year. There is also an im- mense amount of lumbering to be done in the vicinity, and Nashwank will be the natural distributing point for the outlying mining and lumber- ing fields, the whole presenting an at- tractive prospect to the business man. The Eastern Minnesota railroad is being extended from the Stevenson mine and will be completed to the new town inashorttime. Swan lake, a magnificent sheet of water, is close by, and there are natural featuréS‘of beauty near at hand. Nashwauk cer- tainly presents the appearance of be- ing a winner from the very outset. The Duluth Herald. There is probably no paper in the statg of Minnesota that has shown more improvement both in the way of news and circulation than The Duluth Evening Herald. It publishes on an average twelve pages daily and itis the only paper at the head of the lakes giving all the Associated Press report, supplemented by a special service from all the news centers of the coun- | try.

The Pan-American Exposition at- tracted to this country the most won- derful collection ever made represen- tative of the dress, manner of life, amusements and religious devotions’ of the people of the Orient. Expect- ing that the St. Louis Exposition would be held next year, a great many of these have remained in this coun- try. Asa result many af them are appearing this summer at the various steet fairs and carnivals that are be- ing held in different cities. The Minneapolis Elks have secured for their carnival, June 2nd to 14th, the Jabour Combination, which is one of the largest aggregations, embrac- features of Turkish, Japanese, Chi- nese, Mexican, Hindvo, aud Egyptian costumes, dances feats of agility and strength, etc. Besides this there are to be forty trained animals, a circus congress of all nations, balloon ascensions, aerial acts, high diving and the latest sen- sation known as looping the loops, which is said to be the mast startling detlance of the laws of gravitation ever exhibited. Cav’t Touch a Justice. Justices of the peace up on the iron ranges will have more admiration for | the law hereatter than they had be- fore, says the Duluth Evening Herald of Tuesday. ‘The Jaw protects them from damage suits for their actions, and holds that their acts cannot be inquired into even if they are mistak en or malicious. This came out in the damage cases of Henry Graichen and Peter Blesi against S. Lekve, justice of the peace at Hibbing, who sentenced the plaintiffs to long terms in the county jail for violating a quar antine on asmall-pox camp, though the law provides only a small fine for such offense. Each of the men sued for $2,000 dumages, and the cases came up yesterday afternoon before Judge Dibell, in district court. C. O. Bald- win appeared for the defendant, and he moved that the cases be dismissed. Judge Dibell granted the motion in both cases, and the defendant went out of the court room happy. Judge Dibeil held that the acts of a justice of the peace, acting in his proper jurisdiction, are not subjects for dam- age suits, even through they are mis- taken or maliciously intended to in- jure. This let the defendant out. The two men who brought the suits only spent eight days in jail, as the district court released them on writs of habeas corpus, when it was shown under what umstances they had been sentenced. Corn Fodder Growing. Two things must be considered in growing corn fodd2r—the supply of moisture for the crop and the harvesting. The enormous growth which the corn makes demands a large amount of water. When corn is sown broadcast, unless it is very scantily sown, there is more corn on the land than there will be moisture to supply it, as each pound of corn- stalks requires between 300 and 500 pounds of water to grow it. The re- sult is that the crop is stunted and does not reach a proper size. For this reason the crop should usually | f be sown in rows about 3% ft. apart, and cultivated one way. The culti- vation keeps out weeds and further increases the supply of moisture a checking evaporation from-the sur- face, whieh goes on most. rapidly from a hard crust. The labor is well repaid hy the improved crop. If sown in rows a bushel of seed should sow an acre, if the seed is abont an inch apart in the row. Almost any soil ‘will grow good corn fodder. It may be sown on new land, and can be plowed under in breaking, if not covered more than 3 or ‘4 inches. Or it can be sown in furrows, as for potatoes, and covered with a harrow, or put in with a garden drill. At the Ex- periment Farm the crop is sown with a grain drill by stopping all but three tubes. It is sown about June 1 and is ready to cut about September 1, or when the lower leaves begin to wither. The advan- tage of sowing in drills 1s found in the greater ease with which the corn is cut and shocked. No attempt should be made to stack the fodder or store it in a loft. The bundles will cure if kept on end, and a single tier can be stood up in a barn ‘oft, but they usually spoil it piled one on another. They may usually be left in the field in shocks and hauled up as needed. fe 1 A New Dray Line. “Sandy” Kennedy has purchased the Itasca Mercantilé Co’s. draught team and has engaged in the ray business.
