College Course
Speaker Says it is Not Necessarily
Fatal to a Bright Young
Man.
NE W HAVEN. Conn.. May 13. -"To a
bright young man who has anything in
him, a college course Is not necessarily
fatal to success. That Is my view of it."
says Speaker Cannon In a discussion In the
Yale News today of the value of a college
education.
lie continues:
"The common school and the high school
give the average individual at leal fair
equipment for practical success in busi
ness or In the various callings that men
follow who live by ihe sweat of their fares.
That is about all 'that the average man
Hl.l utilize.
''There Is always a question as to whether'
the average student will survive the spoil
ing effects of a college course.
"The human aoimal, on the average, is
not worth his salt If he is incapable of
making his own way.
' The greatest rewards come in business,
not in politics. A good business man Is
much better off than a poor politician. Th.
business man has better chance for ad
vancement - and receives great remunera

ST. PAUU May. 13. Settled in the vicin
ity of Jraiid Marais, who have lost their
homos and everything else,, except the
clotjies on their backs, began arriving In
that village today, according to reports by
wireless telegraph. ... a
One group arrived early today after they
had sptnt the night lying in the bed of a
small river and part of the time were com
pelled to submerse themselves to keep tha
flames from burning the clothes from their
bodies. In this party were five children
who were so badly burned that they are
being cared for in a hospital In Grand
Marais.
At Gooseberry river and along Beaver
Hanks, the flames are eating their way
through the woods. From Park Bay to
Tofte and as far back as the eye can see,
timber Is on fire. From Good Harbor to
Grand Marais fires burned at intervals.
Reports reaceived early In the day from
northern Minnesota, northern Wisconsin
and Michigan indicated that the fires
were not burning as fiercely as yesterday,
but later reports said that the wind ap
peared to he rising and this Indicated that
perhaps tlie fires might be fanned into
activity again.
It is estimated" that the' loss on' cut tim
ber in the district between Tofte and Good
Harbor will be about tM.U00.
A hpe'lal from Calumet, Mich., says that
Willis Seaman, an Instructor In the' Michi

while out flshint? in a canoe were hemmed
In by fire and, atteniping to break through,
their shoes were burned from their feet.

The tirst of the sounding balloons sent up

Tins Is the first of Hie balloons sent up

Differences In the market offerings this
week are differences in quality and quan
tity rather than In prices, for with the
advent of more home grown stuff the sup
ply Is becoming more bountiful. Chickens
also are more plentiful and slightly lower
In price.
A noticeable change in quality Is In the
turnips, which have been small and pithy,
but now are good at E cents a bunch. Home
grown radishes likewise are tempting at
three bunches for 6 cents. Asparagus of
high grade, largo tips, varies in price, ac
cording to whiteness, from three to five
bunches for 25 cents. New potatoes are
plentiful and selling at six pounds for SI
cents. There is some home grown lettuce
and head lettuce may be obtained at either
10 or 15 cents a head.
The wholesale prices of tomatoes has ad
vanced slightly and they are still retailing
at 50 cents a basket. Other vegetables In
which there is little change in price are;
Green peas, 15 cents a quart; wax and
green beans, 10 cents; egg plant, 20 and
25 cents; summer squash, 5 and 10 cents
each; cabbage, new, 5 cents; cucumbers,
15 cents.
Strawberries are more plentiful, but It
is still considered early to begin preserv
ing as the 15 cents a quart or even two for
'.'.o cents will probably be lowered a little
later in the season; some say next week,
and others name the first of June as the
season when aurply and price will favor
the housewife. Pineapples are small and
selling from 20 to 35 cents each. Orapc
fruit is good at two for 25 cents.
DresBed chickens retail at 20 cents a
pound. The wholesale prices are: roosters,
UVic; hens, 17c; springs, lxc; ducks, 20c;
geese, 15c; turkeys, 2c; fresh broilers, $3;
froien broilers, ,t6.
The threatened shortage of eggs has not
yet affected the market and they still re
tall at 23c. 26c or .c for the twenty-four
hour variety. Butter is slightly lower,
country. -6c, 2(io and 30o; and creamery,
3:ic.
This is the season when sandwich pos
sibilities acquire a special interest and
pimento clietse. which sells at 10 cents a
cake or 15 cents a Jar, is a novrlty in this
line. The Waukesha cheese and Neuf
chatel cheese are also good for this pur

It is most Important that poultry should
be fresh, and this condition can be Judged
by the fresh, sweet smell and also by the
absence of moisture from the outside skin.
The prlmenes.' of the flesh can generally

which shows its elasticity when it Is
pressed. Many poultry dealers have a tiick
of breaking the breast bone in su.;h a way
that the appearance of the breast is greatly
Improved.
Allowance must be made for birds thus
treated; in fact, the best plan Is to Judge
the condition by the thin flap which lbs
beyond the breast bone and under the tall,
tiie part which In a gouse goes by the
name of "apnn." If this has a thin trans
parent appearance the bird Is In poor condl"
tion, but If It Is thick, firm and fat, the
bird is at Its best.
The sue of the birds can be told pretty
accurately by tha condition of the breast
bone, which is continued toward the tall
