The little youngster presented to
us on Jan. 13 by Judge Quale in
shape of school district No. 104 has
created quite a sensation. The
youngster was at once put away in
the shady side at the foot of the
great mount of "Tax Imagina
tion.,'* where it was given but very
poor accommodation, while dis
cussing the size, shape and nature
if said mount. It was claimed by
those possessing a little wisdom
that it would continue looming up
till it would eclipse the sun, so that
it never would shine into the neigh
boring homes any more during the
lives of this and the next genera
tion. While paying their respects
to this mount, some pederstians in
their wild mood, like cross-eyed
bedbugs, ran over the youngster,
giving it some internal injuries
which render its recovery very
doubtful. Some say it will not
live others think the death will
occur March 22.
School Dist. 25 had a special
meeting last Saturday to consider

Motor Shop Announcement.
I wish to announce to the public
that 1 now have my automobile
garage completed and am prepared
do all kinds of difficult repairing
and rebuilding of automobiles and
also other kinds of mechanical re
pairing. I am equipped with
lathe, shipper, milling machine,
gear cutter, drill pressers, etc., and
have 25 years of experience in that
line of work.
I also have my own electric light
plant so I can charge your storage
battery direct from the dynamo
which has the proper voltage and
ampere, thereby your battery will
last longer and give better service.
If you have any model to be made
of any new invention, I can do it
for you and give you some informa
tion regarding how to apply for
patents, as I have a good deal of
experience in that line of business.

SEED CORN
I have a quantity of Seed Ccrn
for sale that I think as near perfect
as is possible to have it. As to its
germinating qualities, I have made
six separate tests of fifty kernels
each and have found but one kernel
that did not grow. Have employed
a new method for curing corn for
seed which is far superior to any
other I have ever seen.
By actual test of one hundred lbs.
of nice selected corn as it came
the field, in good condition
for cribbing, expelled by this
method 21 lbs. of moisture. You
can readily see that the corn is very
dry. Thia was done before freez
ing weather. As to variety, be
lieve the corn is as large as it is
safe to grow in this part of the
state. The last three years it has
been planted in variety plats in this
county under the supervision of the
State Agricultural Station, they
sending a representative to superin
tend the planting and also to har
vest it in the fall. Fifteen varie
ites, including my own, were plant
ed.
I will not say that my corn was
superior in every respect, but will
say that in all essentials that go to
make up good corn, there were none
superior to mine, and most of them
inferior.
My corn was awarded a diploma
and bronze medal at the Pan-Ameri
can Exposition at Buffalo. It has
taken the Sweepstake premium at
every Street Fair in Willmar.
My corn is known as White Cap
Dent and will yield from 30 to 60
bushels and can be coaxed up to 75
bushels per acre. It never failed
to mature here, and is especially
adapted to the conditions of central
Minnesota.
Have grown cron in this county
forty years, and have made grow
ing seed corn a specialty for twenty
five years.
Price at my farm at present, $2.
00 a bushel.
