One of the most sensible of the pa
pers presented at the Moorhead con-
vention of last week was read by T.
d. Holmes of Owatonna. Among
other things Mr.. Holmes said:
Asa general thing theWestern farm
ers don't start out right to make a
success of dairy farming. They work
enough but don't think enough. Show
me good dairyman, aud I will show
YOU a man who is an intelligent and
thinking man. He takes the-agricul-
tural papers and keeps posted, and
knows whether there is any advan-
tage in q given course before he takes
it up. Then, when he goes into a
venture he goes with a vim. Until
very recently four-fifths of the butter
made in Minnesota by the regular
farmers has been taken to the country
store and traded out for goods at an
enormous profit to the store-keeper of
from 20 to 50 per cent. Nearly one
half the farmers of Minnesota are do
ing it to-day, and why? Merely be-
cause they don't know better. They
don't keep posted. Beside, they have
always thought dairying was hum
bug. Some Of the butter made by the
unskilled farmers is not worth over
three or four cents per pound. Ifthls
same butter was put into the cream
cry or made up by intellectual farmers
it would bring 1G to IS cents per pound,
What we want therefore, is that the
farmer shall apply the same intelIi-
gence to his business that is given by
the manufacturer to his business, for
it takes brains to run farm dairy
business successfully as it does in the
case of the machine shop.
He then gave some practical hints
with reference to the testing of COWS
to ascertain their value and with re-
gard to their cure and keeping. Exper-
iencehadtaught him he said, that heavy
feeding paid the largest profit. A COW
was like piece of machinery; it took
a certain amount of power to run it.
All after that is profit. On the aver
age good COW will make from 200 to
$50 pounds of butter if she is properly
cared for. Ifshe has all the good
tame hay or corn fodder she will eat
good pure water, and fifteen pounds of
ground feed per day, she will pay a
handsome profit to her owner, provid-
ed her milk is fit for first-class butter.
If she won't do this send her to the
butcher. The barn in which the COWS
are housed should be good but not
necessarily expensive. Build sub
stantially and neat. The speaker urg-
ed following out of the principles of
neatness in all parts of the farm,
claiming that if the farm home is
made attractive the boys and girls
will notbe SO eager 10 leave it for city
life. The winter dairying from his
own experience, was more profitable
than summer dairying on account of
the better care the cows receive in the
winter, the lower price of labor and
the higher price of butter and cheese
in the winter months. He advises all
farmers who propose to start in on
dairying to begin with only a few
cows, increasing the number as
they learned the business. 1t was a
mistake to suppose there was fortune
i'm the business in one year. Dairy
ing meant hard work If it was to meet
with success. ~,

The National Stockman says: a
statistician who has gwen the subject
close study, estimates that from oO TO
60 percent of the income of the in
dustrial people of this country is eX-
pended for food products, and one
fifth of this from 10 to II per cent OF
the wole income, goes for meat. From
this it will be seen that the stock
raiser absorbs very considerable pro-
portion of the income of the thrifty
people of the United States, getting
approximately $1,000, 100000 for the
meat which he grows. Meat there
fore, comes second only to bread in
order of Importance as an agricultural
product. This being true, can any
farmer afford to wholly ignore the pro-
duction of beef, pork, and mutton, and
thus have no share in furnishing this
one-fifth Of the food which the coun-
try needs. Is not any system OF farm
ing in which the herd and flock
are ignored resting upon other than
sound basis? 1t cannot be otherwise.
Exclusive grain-farming has I'M
poyerished more land and bankrupted
more farmers than any other agrlcul-
tural policy ever followed by con-
siderable portion of our people.
The New York Tribune cautions its
readers to beware of commission
agents who send circulars of current
prices far above the regular market
rates and ask for consignments. Ihey
NAV make return Of the sale, ana
pay more than they have sold the
goods for but the next time they get
YOURS and some from nelgnbors 10
whom YOU have recommended them,
and YOU hear no more ofreturns. Then
the name is changed and another
place is chosen, and so 1.-THE old thing
works. Millions OF dollars are thus
drawn from farmers and dairymen
everymen year. Sometimes three OF
four of these frauds work together
and one refers to the rest OF the gang
rs to his standing, and so disarms sus'
plcion. Every large city has now its
gang of swiudlers of this class. Bos-
ton was for some time the headquar-
tiers Of these fellows, whose operations
extended all over the country, and
who were we'll up III the tricks of the
business, defying, for years, the efforts
of their victims among the farmers
and Of the legitimate traders of the
produce exchange, to bring them tc
Justice. The gang has at last how
eyer been broken up, and we hear NJ
complaints now from farmers anC
country dealers. Still it is well fo1
farmers to look out pretty sharp abou
consigning their butter and other pro
duce. II is 10 be noticed that ifa firm
in this business is reliable, or has any
reputable standing whatever, it Is al
ways easy enough to find out tina
fact. \. firm of which you know
nothing except that it offers prizes
greater than those quoted in reliable
market reports, about which you cal
find out nothing by inquiry is Away
