There is a very de- cided desire on the part of a large number of Grand Rapids citizens to induce this worthy couple to again make this place their home, and there is hope among their friends that the change will come to pass in the near future. As a minister of the gospel Father Murphy is one who makes warm friends among) all classes, irrespective of denomi- naticn, and as a citizen his pres- ‘ence in any community has a wholesome effect.

Deputy Sheriff Gunderson was out last week subpoening jurors for the September term of district court. He traveled through Third River, Rosy, Alvwood, Wirt, Popple, Nore and Ardenhurst, and had a good opportunity to see what the farmers are doing in those towns. He says he never saw finer crops of all kinds than those now being harvested in that section. He had photographs of oat fields that only. showed the ° heads of men above the grain as they stood erect. Mr. Gunderson says the thrifty farmer in Itasca county, especially in the north country, is getting to the profitable point. More roads and better ones is the crying need, however, in order to make soil tilling pay. The judicious expenditure of the $300,000 recent- ly voted will give all sections of the county a trunk road system that will soon be followed witha net work of laterals that will accom- modate every settler. ‘ Notice, All persons desiring to take teachers during the Institute Week, September ist to the 6th,toboard| For Rent: Nice Targe front bed and room are requested en eee LOOKING FOR “SNAPS” ON HARNESS GOODS Emil Litchke Goes to St. Paul for- Bargains That Will Attract Attention of Buyers. Emil Litchke, the harness man,- has received a little inside infor- mation that takes him to St. Paul next week where he expects to pick up a bunch of bargains for his Itasca county customers that will be worth investigating. He is advised by the Scheffer & Rossum company, the big manufacturers- and jobbers in leather goods, that a consolidation has been effected. of the Scheffer & Rossum com- pany and the Konantz-Gaver com-- pany. Asa result of this deal the immense stocks of the two con- cerns have been thrown into one and a clearing sale of certain lines is the result. Quotations show some rare bargains to be had in ready— made heavy harness and other goods that are most commonly used. by the farmers of Itasca county. After oloking over the list Litchk- said: “This is the kind of a snap our farmers need. The Lord knows: prices are high enough on every— thing they have ta buy and low enough on everything they have to sell. With these prices I can give them a square deal. I'll go down. to St. Paul and pick out just what: the trade needs;” and he leaves: for the city Sunday morning. Next. week he'll have an announcement to make in the Herald-Review that will interest everybody in need of anything im the harness line. Watch for it.
