A Pioneer in Fact as well as i'm
Name.

The March number of The North
west magazine gives some interesting
facts in connection with the growth
and progress of the Pioner Press.
1t says:
The Pioneer Press establishment is more than
private enterprise-it is an institution which
has ANYWAY been closely identified with every
phase Of the rapidly developing civilization of
which it in fact well as in name, the
pioneer.
The Pioneer Press as newspaper stands forth
rs striking illustration of the growth and
prosperity, not alone of the cities of ST. Paul and
Minneapolis but of the empire of states and
territories of which these cities are the centre
and type. With the dawn of political life in the
Northwest in 1910, the st. Paul Weekly Pioneer
made its appearance, its founder being the
famous James NJ. Goodhue and from that germ
has grown and blossomed the Pioneer Press OF
to-day. Other Journals have come and gone in
endless procession, and their very names are
almost forgotten. but the Pioneer Press has con
tiuued It's rcsistlesS march.
The Pioneer Press traces its lineage from the
Pioneer, established April 2S 1919 and from the
st, Paul Press, founded on the first of January
1861. The Pioneer displayed snap and vigor that
soon enabled it 10 outshine and absorb all Its
Dcmocratib rivals, and il grew into strong and
sclfSustaiuing journal. The st. Paul Press, in
turn absorbed the Republican papers that
preceded it, and this paper. under the manage
ment of the present propretors of the Pioneer
prpsG ~ ~ IN W bat of ,,,or
prosperity which is scarcely paralleled in the
history of journalism. For about twenty three
wears it has never ceased to grow in stature and
strength, not a single year has passed that has
not shown a circulation and volume OF bust
ness greater than that of the year preceding.
There has been no pause in its development, and
at no time has II ever taken step backward
In 1878 the Pioneer was taken into the embrace
of the Press, the consolidated paper being the
Pioneer Press and from that time to the present
its readers will cheerfully testify the only
changes in its character and personnel have been
in the direction of Improvement and enlarge
mcnt as rapidly as means and opportunities
presented themselves for meeting the increasing
wants of its widening circle of patrons.
= The Pioneer Press is regularly sold by
train agents upon more than 10000 miles of the
eighteen lines of railroad which are directly
tributary TO the locality OF It's publication. : :
Four hundred and fifty local news agents
sell the Pioneer Press at cities and villages Oh all
these lines, and 1t also has large SUBSCRIPTION
list supplied direct by mail. II is one of not
more than four newspapers in the United States
publishing every day in itSown columns sworn
statements of its circulation.
The paper is printed from stereotype plates
upon Hoe perfecting press which is a marvel
Of mechanical ingenuity. with capacity OF
l2OCo sheets per hour, every sheet being cut from
continuous roll of paper, and coming from the
press printed and folded ready for delivery"

The nights here are quite cool, but in
the middle of the day the air is very
pleasant and summer-like. Still it is
not SO warm as | found it on the gulf,
and most strangers on coming here are
at once afflicted with bad colds and
sore Threats. In Jacksonville l saw a
man with long bear-skin coat on, but
he was curiosity. Here, however, it
is not unusual to. see ladies in the
morning with light dresses on and seal
skins jackets over them. Perhaps this
may be part of the anglomania which
atfilcts SO many Americans. English
women are noted for such contrasts.

Owing to misstatements made by
some newspapers of the county, the
impression prevails that Hon. T..
Scott Ansley held the office of dis
trict attorney of Iowa county for
three terms six years. Mr.. Ansley,
however, was district attorney only
for four years, and it goes without
saying that he made one Of the best
officers Iowa county has ever had,
which il strongly attested to by the
fact that he is one of the most pop
uIar men in the county. His
nomination for the Office of county
Judge gives general satisfaction
and hunrcds Of his friends will,

JUST RECOGNITION.

In granting an appropriation OF
5000 per year for two years to the
:. W. Wis. l. \. the legislature
Justly recognized the merits and
claims OF the association, which ranks
third among the fair associations of
the state; the State Agricultural
society coming first, the North
crn association second, and the
:. W. Wis. |. \, third. This ap-
preparation, which with the general
aid granted to all fair associations
500 per year-wili increase the
amount to be received during the
next two years to $4,000. This will
put the association in good shape,
and ought to be an incentive to
renewed efforts ON the part OF
officers and members in the direction
of increasing the usefulness of our
annual fairs. Last season the exhibit
OF stock was SO large that notwith-
standing very liberal accommodations
were provided they were found to be
inadequate, and already inquiries
are coming in from stockmen who
intend to be present at our coming
fair. That this department will exec
that Of any previous year there can
scarcely be q doubt. 1t is not
too soon to begin the work of pre-
pairing to make all the other depart
ments successful also, so that the
fair of 1856 may demonstrate the
fact that the liberal appropriation
granted by the state has been worth,

FOOD AND TEMPERATURE.

The Relations Existing Between the Two
in the Animal system.
A series of experiments made by NJ.
Oh. Richet upon rabbits shows, far bet
ter than the bald statements usually
given, the relations which subsist be-
tween the quantity Of food required BY
an animal and its power OF maintaining
its normal temperature, also the need
of a covering, natural or artificial,
as a protection against cold. Two
rabbits were placed in cool chamber
(between fifty degrees and sixty degrees
FL The larger and heavier Of the
two was kept constantly shorn, and the
weight of food which each consumed
was asceTtained daily. For two weeks
the shorn rabbit resisted the cold, eat
ing every day at least one-third more
than the unshorn one, yet losing con-
stantly in weight, while the other one
gained. During this time the tempera-
ture of the shorn animal ives about half
degree less than that Of the unshorn
one. After two weeks the organism
Of the shorn rabbit became unequal
TO the task Of producing heat, the
temperature fell, and on the nine
tenth day the animal died. During
this short period it had lost more than
one-sixth of its weight. Abundance Of
food and warm clothing. are, therefore.
the necessities of cold climate; but
and this Is tie great reason why the
natives Of temperate climate succumb
in hot one-not only light clothing,
put still more q light and not too nour-
ing diet are essential to health in hot
weather or in tropical region. As N.
Richet puts it 1T is no exagg .ration to
say that an ELglishman eats ZEN times
as much as HiDdoo, and il, when in
hot country he persists in the same
regimen, he eats ten times TOO much. =
