were tirst sighted by a boy passing by on horseback. He noticed Jos. Rathbun, who finally
rounded them up about a mile
and a half from Mr. Schnurre's

cubs escaped.
The unusually   large   number
of bear seen   around   here   may
be accounted for by the   extensive forest fires north and   east
of us.    But for some unaccountable reason bear often  migrate
in a certain direction in the fall
of the year.    A short time  ago
it was reported from Thief River Falls, Minn., that bear   were
being slaughtered by the dozens.
They were  all  headed  for  the
southwest, in spite of  the  fact
that   following   that   direction
brought them more and more into the open prairie.

Steve Preimesberger returned
last week from Mt. Angel, Ore.,
after an absence of about three
months.    During this   time   he
traveled over the greater   part
of Washington and Oregon.   He
remained in Uuiontown, Wash.,
a few weeks and worked with a
threshing'machine at $3.00  and
ooard per     day.    The   average
yield of wheat there is about 40
bushels with now   and   then  a
piece of land which gives 50 and
even 60 bnshels per   acre;   and
this on land not irrigated.    The
grain is not stacked and nothing
but   bundle   outfits    are   seen.
RURAL FREE DELIVERY
The rural free delivery service    of   the    United   States
means the distribution of nearly    1.000,000,000   letters   and
oarcels   annually     along   the
highways and bvways of ever-
v state from Maine to Alaska.
A. force of 41,000 carriers daily go over routes   assigned   to
them.    Take a glass of golden
grain     belt    beer    with    your
meals and   at   bed   time.      It
builds      up    the   overworked
nerve tissues and  insures   renewed health to body and mind.

At  Mt.   Angel,   Ore.,   Steve
worked in  a  brickyard.      This
is the home of John Hausinger,
a former resident of Pierz, who
is well and comfortably located
on the outskirts of the city. He
sends greetings to all his friends
in Pierz.    This is a   great   fruit
country, and the two  large  ap
pies on  the   back bar of   John
Grell's saloon are   from   an orchard    about  one  block   from
from Hausinger's place.
Steve is one of the boys who
seems to profit by the Wanderlust, for his impressions, as he
relates them, are both interesting and entertaining.
Everything in the lineof lumber
can be had at reasonable prices

T'ae Minnesota Fanners' Institute
department has just issued a circular
wherein tanners are advised to stac'.;
and sweat their grain before threshing. When properly stacked the department believes sticking and sweat-
Ins preferable to threshing from the
shock.
The essential thing to keep In mind
when stacking is to so build  a stack
that it^.'ill retain its Bhapa when settled, and so that at least three o

A  Washington Experiment  Station
bulletin says that it is preferable  to
have   a   wagon   act   as   a   road-roller
rather   than   a   road-destroyer.     This
would be accomplished by the use of
wide-tired   and   narrow-tired   vehicles,
but ou soft ground the wide tire rolls
over and upon the surface, while the
narrow tire cuts through and destroys
the trackage.    Many European countries have adopted the wide tire for
loaded   vehicles.     Austria  requires   a
tire four and three-tenths inches wide;
France, a tire from three to ten inches
wide;   Germany,  a  tire  at  least, four
Inches    wide.      Every    heavily-laden
wagon in France is regarded as a road-
maker, and many freight wagons have
a rear axle fourteen inches longer than |
the fore, so that the hind wheels run
