Northern Pacific Files Its Annual Re- port. Minnesota furnished practically half of the increase in gross earnings made by the Northern Pacifie during the year ending June 30, 1904, accord- ing to the road’s annual report filed with the state railroad and warehouse commissioner. The total gross earn- j ings of the road were $46,640,296, an | increase of $382,469 over 1903. The Minnesota gross earnings were $11,- 432,299, as compared with $11,279,240 in 1903, though less than a fifth.of the road’s mileage is in Minnesota. The increasé was in local Minnesota business. The total earnings on busi- ness originating and ending in the state were $4,603,954, as compared with $4,049,083 in 1903, an increase of more than sufficient to offset the loss to interstate business passing through the state, which decreased from $7,- 230,157 in 1903 to $6,859,411 in 1904. The increase in local business is also shown indirectly in the mileage statistics for the state in the decrease in the average haul of each traffic unit, and the increase in the receipts per unit per miles, as local business usually in hauled a shorter distance, and at a higher rate than through in- | terstate business. The average haul. for passenger, both state and interstate, in Minne- sota was 63.63 miles, at a rate of 2,158 ;cents per mile compared -with 66 miles at a rate of 2.133 cents a mile in 11903. The average haul per ton of | freight in Minnesota was 156.09 miles, at a rate of .926 cents per ton per mile, as compared with 165.24 miles at a :rate of .899 cents per ton per mile ni This despite the fact that the ings per train mile decrease from 3.06468 in 1903 to $2,98887 in 1904, , Showing improved service. {| No road has yet reported to the state railroad and warehouse commis- nm, with the exception of one or two itching and logging roads only one ‘or two miles long, did as much busi- /ness in Minnesota as the Northern Pacific. Its gross earnings per mile during 1904 in Minnesota were $11,- 737.56. Its net earnings per mile in Minnesota were $6,191.49, a decrease of 141 as compared with 1903, due to the increase in operating expenses from 46.03 per cent of the gross earn- ings to 47.25 per cent. Nevertheless, only four of the score or more lines that have reported earned more per mile gross in Minnesota than the Northern Pacific did net, and not one of them earned as much per mile net by $1,500. The Northern Pacific oper- , ated 1,036.01 miles of road in Minne- |sota last year. The total mileage op- erated was 5,618.88 miles. The gross earnings of the entire line were $46,640,296, as compared with $46,161,150 in 1903. The operating ex- penses were $24,375,265 as compared with $24,076,138 in 1903, the percent- age of operating expenses increasing from 52.16 per cent in 1903 to 52.26 per cent in 1904. GRAPES, TOO, WIN MEDALS. Minnesota Scores Over Famous Fruit States. It is Minnesota grapes that score this time. The Minnesota exhibit at the Louisiana Purchase exposition at St. Louis has received an ‘award of silver medals on Duchess, Concord and Brighton grapes. It did not need the St. Louis fair to show the world that Minnesota is the bread and butter state. All the world knew that before. And the clean sweep Minnesota bas been making in the butter contests at St. Louis sim- ply was corroborative evidence. The big batch of medals the judges gave to the Minnesota educational exhibit shows that Minnesota is also the state of the little red school house, the school house meaning everything from kindergarten to university. St. Paul and Minneapolis showed that Minne- sota cities are progressive by the num- | ber of medals the Twin City exhibit captured. Minnesota has not been re- garded as a fruit state away from home, though Minnesotans knew what fine fruit this state produces. It is therefore a matter of congratulation that the state is able to win prizes for its fruit in competition with states that are known the country over for their fruit. FINE LAW POINT DECIDED. Death Stops Suit, and Court Holds It Cannot Be Revived. Judge Amidon in the United States district court at Fargo has decided a fine point against the Aetna Life In- surance company vs. Knute Dahle. |The defendant was a farmer in the northern part of the state. He took ‘out a policy for $5,000 just a year ago. ‘Dahie died just a year ago of consump- tion. The company heard of the likely death of the insured and began an ac- tion to cancel, on the ground of mis- ‘representation in the: application, but Dahle died shortly after the service of the papers. Judge Amidon was asked to make an order reviving the suit, naming the administrator as de- fendant, together with the widow. The court denied the motion, holding that the administrator of the estate suc- ceeded to no interest whatever in the | widow has already begun action to re- iz News of the State. | RURAL SCHOOLS NEED TEACHERS Small Salaries Keep Supply Below the Demand. Now that the rural schools of the state are well started it is evident that there is going to be a scarcity of teach- ers. Some of the county superintend- ents have found it necessary to issue certificates to high school graduates, and in some cases the students who were not so well qualified to teach as the high school graduate. The dearth of teachers is felt most in counties which are but thinly set- tled. While no reports have reached the state department of education that any schools will have to be closed this year because of a lack of teachers, it is thought that the rural schools in some portions of the state will not be able to have as long terms as usual. It is intimated by those acquainted with the situation, however, that in many of the counties the superintendents are finding stu- dents that are fairly well qualified for rural school teaching. “It is the same old story of scarcity in the supply of rural teachers,” said an educator who is conversant with the situation. “The salaries are so low that they fail to attract teachers. Few men or women like to be janitor and teacher of a school at a salary of $25 to $30 a month. In some districts the teachers have to walk two or three miles to the school house, and in the winter they have to build the fires, sweep the oor, bflesides teaching all the grades. “The teachers are now flocking to the large cities and to districts that are well organized, and have a high enough property valuation to support their teachers. “The searcity in the supply of teach- ers, occasioned by the small salaries, would be overcome to a great extent if the more thinly settled districts would only adopt the system of cen- tralized school districts. Two or three of these districts joining together would be able to pay salaries on which the teachers could live and at the same time the schools would not have to be closed so many months in the year in counties where the resi- dents cannot afford to keep them open. “This system would also make it possible to maintain graded © schools where rural schools now exist. There are now four districts working under this system and it is proving very suc- cessful.” BEST IN STATE’S HISTORY. wast Butter Scoring Contest of Year Breaks Record. Minnesota butter broke all previous records in the last educational butter test held by the state dairy and pure food commission. The scoring of ninety-six tubs of butter from all parts of the state showed an average of 94 points. This is the highest average that butter has ever reached in the state, and the officers of the depart- ment were jubilant over the results of the last contest of the season. “The butter in this competition was by far the best that the state has ever produced, and strengthens its reputa- tion as the foremost butter state in the Union,” said,Secretary Wall of the dairy commission. “It is gratifying to the department that this high standard has been reached and it shows the value of the competition in securing for the state this degree of perfection. It is a wonderful record, when you consider the number of entries. “The rapid advance in the stand- ard of butter is due to the up-to-date methods used by the creameries and the rapidity with which they adopt im- proved methods. New and better creameries are being established all the time, and the output is increasing each month.” The winners in .the record-breaking contest are: N. N. Engelbretsen, Mansfield, 98. Harry Sprenger, Conger, 97. Cc. A. Storvick, Emmons, 97. Scores of 95 or better’ were made by T. E. Ekstrand, Annandale, 95.5. C. H. Jensen, Bernandotte, 96.5. J. G. Wilson, Withrow, 96.

Brown, Petersburg, 5, Happy Ahasuerus. “When I went to sea,” said an old yarn spinner, “I was very handy aloit, and answered to the convenient name of ‘Jack.’ I was so willing and handy that the officers were always calling on me. It was ‘Jack, do this,’ or ‘Jack, do that.’ On one voyage the mates called on ‘Jack’ so much that I waa well-nigh worn out; I determined to be ‘Jack’ no more. After arriving in Liv- erpool and remaining there a few days, I went to the shipping commis- sioner’s office for a new job. He said he wanted a man for a captain who was even then waiting in the office and requested me to sign my name. “‘T cannot write,’ I said. “*Then tell me your name,’ he said. “Ahasuerus Vitz Van Duzendorif,’ said I. “What?” “‘*Shasuerus Vitz Van Duzendorf.’ “‘How in thunder do you spell it?’ “‘ don’t know.’ “‘Here, captain,’ said the commis- sioner, turning to the waiting captain, ‘this man seems all right, but for his confounded name.’ “That's all right,” said the captain; and I was shipped. And I will tell you I had peace and comfort on that voy- age. Whenever the mate wanted me to do anything he would start on my, name, break out swearing, and then tell another man to do the work. [ think they rather suspected something wrong about the name, but they never caught me.” SAFEST FOOD. In Any Time of Trouble is Grape-Nuts. Food to rebuild the strength and that is predigested must be selected when one is convalescent. At this time there is nothing so valuable as Grape-Nuts, for the reason that this food is all nourishment and is also all digestible nourishment. A woman who used it says: ‘Some time ago I was very ill with typhoid fever, so ill everyone thought I would die, even myself. It left me so weak I could not properly digest food of any kind and I also had much bowel trouble which left me a weak, helpless wreck. “T needed nourishment as badly as anyone could, but none of the tonics helped me until I finally tried Grape- Nuts food morning and evening. This not only supplied food that I thought delicious as could be, but it also made me perfectly well and strong again so I can do all my housework, sieep well, can eat anything without any trace of bowel trouble, and for that reason alone Grape-Nuts food is worth its weight in gold.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Typhoid fever, like some other dis- eases, attacks the bowels and fre- quently sets up bleeding and makes them for months incapable of digesting the starches and therefore pre-digested Grape-Nuts is invaluable for the well- mown reason that in Grape-Nuts all the starches have been transformed into'grape sugar. This means that the first stage of digestion has been me- chanically accomplished in Grape-Nuts food at the factories and therefore anyone, no. matter how weak the stom- ach, can handle it and grow strong, for all the nourishment is still there.
