"A party of surveyors belonging to
the Milwaukee road are here and casting

DIR. Lewis, who few weeks ago
took his two Oldest boys to view the
large cattle ranches of Southern Texas,
with the intention of giving the boys a

We have it from authentic sources
that there is every probability of the
early completion of the st. Cloud, Man
kato IL Austin railroad. When this is
consummated as we'll rs the building OF
the road from Red Wing, Mankato
will then have five competing lines.
With this advantage why should
not our city stride forward in the race
of progress and become recognized as
the leading town in Southern Minnesota,
a cognomen which rightfully belongs
to her. We have great hopes for the
future Of our city, perhaps too much
faith, but without faith life is not worth
living.
Prof. Porter, of the State University,
is expected to address a farmers meeting
to be held at Red Wing, Feb. 9th, on
the "Object and value of agricultural
fairs" 1t would seem that great
many counties in the State are creeping
ahead of Blue Earth county in this par
ticular. Why not ask Prot. Porter to
come here and deliver the same or a
similar address, and invite the farmers
in to discuss the subject in all its bear
.iugs. Olmsted county has now special
act providing for the voting OF $4,000
in bonds for the purchase and fitting up
of fair grounds. The same thing can
he much more cheaply and easily nc
complished in this county.
The Window Reporter says: "A
dealer at Worthington offers to sell oil
cake at two cents a pound, for two
weeks, to introduce its use among stock
men and all who have stock to feed
This must he very close to cost, judging
from what we pay for it in Window
Why wouldn't the experiment pay with
our dealers, to sell it at about cost for q
couple of weeks, and get people used to
it For mich cows it is unequalled. A
pint twice a day with bran, will soon
show an increase of milk and cream
Three pints day to horse, with pail
of dry bran has u wonderful effect. Oil
cake is hearty and possesses the fat
making qualities, and once introduced
it would come into general use. 1t can
be laid down in Window for about $25
per ton in car lots.

The Creamery Question.


We call attention again to the neces.
sity of establishing creameries. Blue
Earth county could support dozen
well paying creameries. We all have
plainly observed, says an exchange, that
one of the benefits of the creamery
system has been the improvement of
the quality of butter. Under this sys-
tenn the cloak of secrecy which hung
about the best individual methods has
been swept away, and the very best
makers are employed in the factories.
The cream of all the farmers is gathered
into a building erected for the purpose,
and is made into butter or cheese at one
place, instead of fifty. The whole is of
II uniform quality day after day, so that
1t gets reputation of its own, which it
retains as long as the same conditions
remain. The whole generally "~,mands
high price. This is point -he
best home buttermakers are
fess, for in theory the milk
herd Of COWS properly manage
produce a better article than
of all grades of herds of COWS St
creamery. But in practice the RI
is the case.
The farmer who makes poor article
can get along in some way, and persuade
himself that he does about rs well as his
creamery friends, but the foreman in q
factory cannot hide his talent under q
bushel. These experts are assisted by
each other and their employees, by the
dairymen's convention, by the united
pressure of associated factories upon the
State, so that the aid of science is called
in both at private and public expense
with the object of improving dairy pro
ducts. Another benefit in the factory
system is the increase in the quantity O
the product. But though the quantity
increases greatly, the demand, both a
home and abroad, keeps up with thu
supply. The system has given definite
value to milk and cream, and g:eatl.
cheapened their production. Of cours
the value differs very greatly in differ
ent localities, but wherever there is
creamery or cheese factory the farme
may be sure of getting the value of hi
milk and cream according to the season
The association pays him. 1t is re
sponsible body at home with whom tn
farmer has to deal. There is no stor
pay or promissory notes, the bushes
being carried upon strictly cash BASH

MINNEOPA FALLS, MIMI, July IA, 1871.

MINNEOPA FALLS, MIMI, July IA, 1871.
Editor La Crosse Democrat:
DEAR SIR-This place lies on the st.
Paul & Sioux City railroad and is GER
tainly one of the grandest natural scenes
of which Minnesota can boast. Permit
me to describe the Falls in the Democrat.
The creek on which the Falls are
situated is the natural outlet Of lakes
Crystal, Loon and Lilly. AT this time
there is but little water running over
the Falls, but when nature has formed
such grand reservoirs, an expenditure
of less than one hundred dollars on a
dam of not more than fifteen feet in
length. with foodgate, is all that is
required to make MinneOpa one Of the
greatest places of resort in Minnesota
that such has not been done is passing
strange from the character given me of
the talented and energetic President of
the road, Hon. Z. F. Dldke. The scenery
around the Falls is truly grand. Just
picture to your imagination basin of
solid stone two hundred feet in diameter,
whose perpendicular walls are eighty
feet or more in height, expanding at the
edge of the basin to breadth of two
hundred and fifty feet, with that barrier
of stone gaining in height rather than
diminishing. Everything around is al
most in state of nature, the handiwOrk
of the Almighty it is work few can
look upon and not think of the power
and majesty of its Architect.
I am told that when the stream is
| h;,.I, ha roor nf tic rpofaro CON ha die.
tinctly heard in Mankato, five miles
distant, and have no doubt of it..
Below the Falls few rods is a cave,
once the favorite resort of the celebrated
Indian chief Setuma Nahdutah, and his
warriors, then in a state of nature, but
now fitted up with seats and table,
where cxcursionists can write to their
friends in spot deemed sacred by the
Indians.
What astonishes all who visit the
Falls is, that there is no house of enter
tainment. Within the last three days
hundreds of excursionists have been
here, all appeared highly delighted
with the grand and magnificent scenery,
but there was a universal complaint,
there was no house for the reception of
those who wished for entertainment. If
such men as Whaker & Hesely of
third Street, La Crosse, were located here
and owners of an interest in the place
they would be wealthy men in five years
! feel confident that when the road
from Mankato to Wells is completed
that excursion. trains will leave La
Crosse for Mankato and there change
cars, taking the St. Paul & Sioux City
road to Minneopa Falls, and we'll will
the grand and sublime scenery Of Min.
neopa repay them for the visit.
| Yours respectfully
DAVID TAYLOR.

RENO, November 5th.-Nothing further
has been learned regarding the reported In
dian light. johnson Sides, o prominent
member of the Piute tlibe, followed by four
stalwart young warriors, called at the Gazette
office to-day, and said he thought the reported
hight was without foundation. He said his
tribe held council short time ago with the
view of selecting chief TO ascend to the
throne made vacant by the death Of old
Winnemuccs but the followers of the old
man were so much distressed over their loss
that the conference adjourned without ac-
comprising anything. johnson thinks the
Piutes entertain very friendly feelings toward
the WashOes, and have no reason to declare
war. He thinks if fight occurred Of Mud
Lake yesterday, it must have been between
unprincipled drunken men from the two
tribas, and that it would not interrupt the
friendly relations now existing between the
heads of the tribes. Sides apprehends no
difficulty in selecting successor of Winnie
muccs, and favors Captains Dave Sam,
Nachez or Leo W;nnsmucca, the old Chiefs
son. He says they are honest. sober and in
dustrious, and remain on the reservation at
tending to their business He feels sure that
the selection Of either of TIE above-named
braves would meet with the hearty approval
of every Piute in the State The Piutes. he
says, are In very prosperous condition., and
have no good reason for complaining Of the
treatment they receive from any quarter.

Having lost three daughters by the

believe that anything could arrest
the progress of the disease, but, to
my great surprise, before my daugh-
ter had taken one bottle of BRowN's
IRON BITrERs, she began to mend
and now is quite restored to former
health. A fifth daughter began to
show signs of Consumption, and
when the physician was consulted

quired :" and when informed that
the elder sister was taking Browns

a good tonic, take it,

TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the ouLy sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERSwill thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively not injurious.
