Putnam ot Blue Earth, one of the ablest metn- bers of thc upper house, has introd- uced a bil! providing for the teaching of agriculture exactly along the lines advocated by this paper. As Mr. Putnam is a number of long exper- ience and of high standing with his fellow members, there is strong hope that his bill will be adopted. The bill is outlined in the Pioneer Press as follows: ‘‘Any high schoo! having satisfactory room and equip- ment, and having shown itself fitted | by location and otherwise to do agricultural work, on application to the state high shool board may be designated to maintain an agricul- tural department. “Each shall employ instructors in agriculture, manual training and domestic sicence (including cooking and sewing), and have connected therewith a tract of land suitable for a garden of not less than five acres for the purposes of experiment and demonstration. Tbese schvols shall furnish free instruction in this de- partment to all residents of the state desiring it. The bill specifies the branches that mvst be taught, covering the field of agriculture, live stock and dairying and the man- agement of orchards and the rais- ing of fruit and berries. “Each of such schools shall receive state aid equal to two-thirds of the amount actually expended upon such department, but this shall not exceed $2,000 for any year. Not more than five schouls shall be aided the first year, nor more than tive be added to the list every two years, The billap- propriates $10,000 a year fur the two years ending June 30, 1909.” The provision for gradual growth of these departments in numbers is especially wise. This will-give! opportunity for experimenting by the |. older and wealthier districts and perfect the system in its details. It will also prevent burdening the state with an unreasonable tax for| this purpose, and give the agricul- tural college the opportunity to} include in its courses one for the fitting cf young men and young women to become teachers in these schools, No school, therefore, will be induced to include this depart- ment until experience has proved it in otber places and until conditions will insure its success. —— Needed Repairs Made. The Itasca Paper company’s ma- chine room was closed down during the major portion of the day Thursday when a new wire was placed on the machine and other necessary repairs were made. Operations were re- sumed at about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. RECRUITING HARD Corporal McCullough Finds It Hard to Secure Enlistments. MARINE SERVIGE 15 TEMPTING FEW Recruiting Office Established Jan. | 14 Makes a Vitorous Cam- paign But Secures Ouly Single Enlistment. Corporal Wm. H. McCullough, whe has charge of the Rapids recruit- ing office, has been conducting a vig- orous campaign for considerably more than a month in this city, but re- ports the results as unsatisfactory. Mr. McCullough, in conversation with a Herald-Review representative yes- terday, said that the only solution he could give for the lack of success was the general prosperity of this section of tha state and of Grand Rapids in particular. The men ap- proached have. with few exceptions, shown a home-loving inclination and preferred staying at home with good wages to entering the service of Uncle Sam and seeing the world at his expense. The local effice was opened Jan. 14, and thus far has only succeeded in securing one recruit, James John son, who today left for Mare Isiand, Cal., where he wil] enter on the first duties of hisservice. It is thought by the local representive that the Grand Rapids office will be closed within the next few weeks owing to the general lack of suc ‘ Bovey Man Badly Frozen. Francis Kelly, living on the out- skirts of the town of Bovey, was so badly frozen last Tuesday that he will be maimed for life. Kelly drove to Coleraine on business, and on his return his sleigh was overturned in a snowdrift, and, the herses becom- ing frightened ran away. In attempt- to recover his team the young man became lost in the darkness and be- fore reaching shelter bis hands were badly frozen and he was otherwise suffering from exposure. To Have Picture Show.

Drainage Meeting. A public meeting of the citizens of Itasca and Kovochiching counties, will beheld at the court house in the Village of Grand Rapids, Minn., on Saturday the 23rd day of March, 1907, at 2o0’clock p. m. for tbe purpose of pre- paring for the drainage work for the coming season, All persons inter- ested are inyited to be present.

Grant’s $1,500 Mexican 3om- brero Still Holds Record. “Talking about expensive hats,” said a prominent hat dealer, “the most costly hat that was: ever made was presented to Gen. Grant while in Mexico in 1882. It cost $1,500 in gold. It is now in the national museum at Washington, says the New York Press. “Panama hats used to be frequently sold as high as $500 each. I remem- ber selling four hats at that price in a single day in 1872, but such hats are no longer to be obtained. The most expensive panama I have sold in years was bought by a banker of this city last week for $100. It was the last fine panama hat in stock. Such hats are still worn by the hidalgos in South America. They are not made in Panama, but got the name because that city was formerly the- greatest market for them. The finest hats come from Peru. They are made of the fiber of the pita or pineapple plant, which is as soft and pliable as silk, and some of them are so fine that they can be folded up and carried in one’s vest pocket.” St. Cecelia Guild met r- noon at the bome of Mrs. Frank King.

Whence the Name “Tiger.” It is reported that when the prince of Wales shot a tiger in India awhile ago, the beast charged bim at full speed. In so doing the tiger was dc ing its best to live up to the name or its kind.
