ee SO —— Clipped or Condensed From Exchanges for the Benefit of Herald-Review Readers COLERAINE New Department. At the last meeting of the board jot Education it was decided to em- ploy a young man who understands planting of trees, lawn culture and gardening for a period of two months We will have charge of the premises «bout the different school buildings and will also assist in encouraging the pupils of the school to cultivate flower and vegetable gardens on their own premises and to keep the premises in good condition. The out- come of this experiment will be watch with’ interest and if success- ful may lead] to an extension of this work in the schools of this district. Carnegie Library Under Way. Work has begun on the Carnegie library building in Coleraine and whould the weather hold good will soon assume proportions. The com- ing of this building means much to the Twin cities. It has an edu- cational side that will be of great benefit, to us all. Its influence wil! be felt along every walk in life and for the better. It is) a plaim fact that the better we are educated the better we are clothed and fed. Bet- ter citizens are produced and better government is secured. Every fam- ily im the two villages should be patrons of the library. 200 Gallons Syrup. Mr. Black and wife who came her: recently from Vermont to make mapl« sugar and syrup at Hartley’s sugar camp, have finished the season’s pro- duction which has been comparative- ly light this year, less than two hun- dred gallons being obtained, owing to the early spring. Another Attorney. Raymond A. McOuat of St. Paul, an attorney ‘who was here last week looking over the field, has decided to locate in Coleraine and will arrive here next week and open a law office in rooms over the drug store. He comes highly recommended by At- torney General Simpson and will doubtless do well. Pursuant to! the order of the U. S. Steel corporation to its subsidiary organizations throughout the country Sunday work at all of the company mines will be reduced to a minimum and operations ‘will be carried on by as small a force as possible. The order includes all steel works, rolling mills, shops, quarries amd docks con- trolled by the corporation. The steel corporation has been trying for a feng time to get rid of the arduous seven days of labor in which steel work has been mired. It is expected that the new regime will work great benefit to employers and employees BOVEY ; Bovey. Enjoyable Trip. Gust Johnson and family have re- twmed from their trip to the old country. Mrs Johnson did not return but was detained in England with one of the children which the health officers thought might be coming down with a quarantinable disease. Mr. Johnson reports an enjoyable out- ing otherwise. Baseball Manager Appointed. The board of directors of the Bovey baseball club met on Thursday even- ing and appointed a manager for the coming season. Mr. I. A, Myers was the one chosen to direct the destiny of the club during the coming base ball year. Mr. Myers is now away on his honeymoon trip and the news will mot be told to him until his return. fA committee} was appointed to see if $100 could be surrounded and lo cated jin the treasury with which to ‘puy ‘the necessary accessories for a, game. Clearing Cemetery. Road Superintendent, Henry Volke, has a crew of men at work on the Rew cemetery, blowing out stumps and getting the grounds in shape. (Much work is yet to be done there on ‘the road leading up ‘to the place This is yet to be graded the entire distance and when this is done much work has been Jaid out on} the place but the site will be a fine one. Killed By Explosion. A young man by the name of Rich- ard Stamp, or Stout, was killed Fri- day while engaged in clearing up the mew cemetery grounds. The stumps on the place were being with dynamite and while at a sup posedly safe distance away a flying rock fellon his head and killed him. He |was picked up by the other work men and hurried to the hospital at Coleraine but died without regaining consciousness. Church is to Remain Here. \The Bovey Catholic church is to remain where it is. So says Bish- op McGolrick of Duluth. A deligation of our citizens, con- sisting of Messrs. Sam Ros, J. K. Jas- per, John Hurley and Anton Gerbec- went to Duluth to see the Bishop. He told them that Coleraine could build one of their own but that they could mot sell the Bovey pro perty or move it over there, simply because they did not own it. The Duluth delegation had eighty names to a petition asking that Cole- raine foe restrained in the matter of jthe moving of the church here to their town as contemplated. The Bishop stated that Coleraine might build a $15,000 church there if they B desired, but at least twothirds| of the money must be on hand be forg the work |began. ‘Tomorrow, Sunday, the matter of the building of a mew church in Bo vey}; will be taken up by the peo- ple here and it is thought that a sum sufficient) for a church the size of our needs here can. be raised with- out any difficulty. The parsonage | is here and will always remain here and now it iis in order ta put up a} church building. The present one! is entirely) too small for the need of the large congregation attending and a neWw one should be built at o There is but little doubt but what the money! with which to build a church will be forthcoming in due time for all see the need of the build*} ing. NASHWAUK Baseball Team Organized. A large and enthusiastic meeting of baseball fans was held in the village hall Thursday evening and it was decided to have a_ fast ag- gregation of ball tossers to repre- sent this progressive village the coming season.

The first annual dance given by the F. O. E. lodge, Nashwauk aerie No. 1909, at the village hall Tuesday fvening was a howling success, both soeially and financially. The ymusic rendered Mvas of a high class ing comfortable, but, few “bumps” only added to th amusement Would Beat Board Bill. Chief of Police Vogan arrested Mike Laporio Monday on 2 warrant charging him with attempting to He was captured at the depot where he was awaiting the arrival of the morning train and brought back to won where he was beat a board bill. ‘About 200 were present and the hail; was too small to make danc- nevertheless the crowd was) B merry one and a from the start, which proves that it was an enterprise much needed in this fast growing town.

New Towns and Cheap Lands will be occupied Rapidly. The Land is Good. Settlers and Investors:- I have for sale something worth invest- ing. Itis 3000 acres of good land. Timber land, and all good farm ing land, in the Willow River val- Jey, in northern Aitkin County, Minnesota. This tract is crossed by the new Soo railroad, now building from Thief River Falls to Duluth and Superior, thus placing this land, which has heretofore been isolated from railroads, within easy reach of big cities with their great mar- kets, over a directline of railway. Our land lies level and gently rolling. The soilis a rich loam, where the maple, oak and bass wood grow, and yields enormous crops of everything you stick in the ground. Some of this landis cut over, but is mostly easy to clear and you can raise crops the first year; fine feed growing on this land now; on meadow and upland, some with tame grass. Fuel and fencing for a lifetime. And a new town is laid out close up to our lands. Fne lakes; also running streams cross the town- ship which drain the country. There will be a movement to these good lands along this new railway, by home-seekers and in- vestors very soon, and when these good cheap lands of Northern Minnesota are taken up, the last good cheap lands of the famed American west will be gone for- ever. We are facing the very last chance. Don’t you think you ought to hurry aud get some land? Will sell you 40 acres of this land, or will sell you more, what- ever you want. And the terms of any good man will suit me. Give you what time you need to pay for it, with a small payment down to show you mean business. The price will be low, $10, $12, $15 to $20 per acre, owing to loca- tion etc,, but it is all good land. The American farmer is coming order and the merry throng danced the light fantastic toe until the wee small hours in the morning. The feature of the dance was several square dances, something unusual these modern times, and the ap- Plause the dancers received was al- most deafenimg. The supper was served on the first floor of the hall and ‘was prepared by the Royal Neighbor lodge, while members of ‘Hagles acted as waiters. The tables were laden with food stuff of every description, and to say that it was thoroughly enjoyed is putting it mildly, The ladies cannot be praised too highly for the excellent ‘spread they prepared. Many out- siders Avere present from Hibbing, Stevenson and! Keewatin, who were rather noisy in their praising of the removed | Eagles as entertainers extraordinary into his own. If you are looking for land, “for lands sake’ get some close in and close up to the door of big markets, that is, don’t 0 away off out into the realm of space, hundreds of miles from nowhere, thinking to succeed in the dim and misty future experi- menting with nature. Life is too short for that. Select land where youyare sure things s always grow and crop failure is never “known. Everybody knows the cleared timber lands of the older states are still proving the best on earth. You will succeed it you get that kind. We have them. Write to EDWIN L. BUCK COHASSET, MINNESOTA met expected to live. At an early hour Mrs. Quigg received word that the old lady was dead. Mr. Quigg’s father died about two months ago. Real Estate Trarsferrs. Attorney] W.
