Do you mean 36 as in the highway? While that would be true, it wouldn't lend any meaning to the second line. In my mind, "the ones" are Winter Carnivals and "had these" refers to ice palaces. But if it is referring to a road number, then I assume "the ones" would still be Winter Carnivals, but would would they have 35 or 36 of? David B. Allison

If 35 is exactly a quarter 36 would be roughly a quater

The thing about the 1/4 is that 35 is *exactly* 1/4 of 140 and the clue says *roughly*. It also leaves the second line not making much sense. But 43 is (very) roughly 1/4 of 140 and there have been 43 Winter Carnivals that have had an ice palace.
I get it now, "earn you due" = Deubener Place, after Walter Deubener, who ran a grocery store and invented the paper bag handle for customers. Cool clue!
I think the trashmen song still fits - the yard waste site in just down the hill. Though I might have some personal issues calling yard waste trash. 35 being in proximity and being 1/4 of 140 works too. I’m sure it won’t be referenced in a clue since the news is quite fresh (days) but the nearby Pleasant Ice Arena - so named for the remnant of the road 35E mostly took over- will be shuttering in June. Home of the St Paul Figure Skating Club they have had international success tho mostly in years past. Most of my kids learned to ice skate there will be sad to see it go.
I spent so much time between Linwood and Central last year I think I will also go 10 on Linwood. I know that park and wish I didn’t have to work a 12 hour shift today. Ugh. Go get it, everyone!!!
If it's in my last years Red Herring, of LINWOOD, I will go nuts, but Victoria runs into it off of St Clair, but the pickle ball courts are Not in Linwood but down the street a tad, but there are Tennis Courts. Como is also off Victoria. And just because I like Herring, I'll go 10 on Linwood...AGAIN cuz I;m nuts but so are the clue writers, right? LOL

For its one-hundred forty years, St. Paul's Carnival deserves cheers.
(The ones that had these make up roughly one quarter.)
With an entrance fit for a queen, we look forward to one day seeing
A park from which we can take in a royal boarder.
