HOME LABOR ON OUR SECTIONS
There are no so-called "Dagoes" working on our section
this summer. The crews are
made up of men and boys   from
the    village    and     surrounding
country.
About one year ago the Soo
line shipped sleeping shanties
and other material to all the
points on the Duluth-Brooten
division, which indicated to a
certainty that foreign labor
would be used on all the sec
tions of tin- division. The road-
master had even notiiied section
foremen to leave places for from
three to five dagoes on each section.
At a meeting of our commercial club at that time a committee was appointed to communicate with the management of the
road in behalf of our own men.
This committee made a strong
appeal to the General Road-
master and among other points,
he was told that at least half a
dozen men with large families,
whose necessities of life were
dailv hauled over their line, had
waited all winter for these very
jobs.
It is often said that large corporations, like railroad corporations have

THEN AND NOW
We had hard times here three
and four years ago. In spite of
two almost total crop failures,
this end of the county is now
prospering. Almost every f.ar-
iner is now able to pay his bills
as he goes along, ami has a little pocket money besides.
Providence has been kind
enough to show you that you do
as well and better without the
grain. Don't scatter your mental and physical energy over one
hundred and sixty acres of tillage. Sit on the milk stool, rather, and squeeze your existence
out of the   udder, while   the old

GOOD AND EVIL
The good is almost always accompanied by some evil. The
generous rains of this spring,
which may bring us a bounteous
crop of corn, wheat, oats, rye
etc., etc., has also biought us a
bumper crop of mosquitoes. The
time we expected to enjo3* gloating over the anticipated plenty,
may have to be spent in fighting
these noxious pests.
