The Farm Stock and Home says
that the best time for painting build
ings is late autumn. or during the
winter. Paint applied at such time
will endure twice as long as when
put on in hot weather. In the former
case it dries slowly and becomes like
a glazed surface, not easily affected by
the weather, or worn off by the beat
ing of storms; but in very hot weather
the oil IN the paint soaks into the
wood at once as into asponge, leaving
the lead in a condition to easily
crumble off. This last difficulty,
however, might be guarded against,
though at an increased expense, by
first going over the surface with raw
oil. By painting in cold weather one
annoyance might certainly be escaped
namely the flies in fresh paint.

THE GRAIN POOL AGAIN,

Another feature of the profitable
system under which the grain pool is
operating is the advantage gained by
buying by grade in the country and
selling by sample In the market. AS
stated in the Journal lew days ago,
the grain pool has succeeded in in
creasing the margain from three cents
the figure last year to five cents
per bushel. That adds two cents to
the profit of handling it and cuts off
two cents from every bushel of every
grade of wheat bought by grade in the
territory in which this pool operates.
This is claimed to be legitimate
profit. Perhaps it is. 1t is large
enough, however, to hold the buyers
together In powerful monopoly of
the grain buying in the country, and
pays so we'll that no one thus far has
cared to break it, but on the other
hand the slightest complaint from any
member that he is not getting his
share of the grain results in diverting
the stream to him till he has caught
up and his PERCENTAGE is full.
But there is more profit in the
transaction than is represented in the
five cent margin, and so much more
that we think the infection of this
two-cents extra tax upon the producer
the less justifiable. The prices paid
for different lots of wheat of the same
grade when sold here by sample will
vary from one half a cent to three or
four cents the same day. For ex-
ample, yesterday No. northern sold
OH track all the way from 72 to IS
cents and No. 2 northern sold at 60 to
"a difference of cents in the one
case and of cents in the other, This
Is about an average variation when
there is no excitement. Today wheat
is being bought all through the
country tributary to Minneapolis on
q basis of not rs cents for No.
northern or even 1879 cents but about
~ cents. The lowest price paid by
sample is practically the grade price in
the country. When the wheat comes
in to Minneapolis and is offered for
sale by sample it is sold according to
it's real value and, as already ex-
planned, will vary in price within the
same grade from / to or 4 cents
aboye the grade price at which it was
bought Where does this difference
the advance over the country price
with the cent margin added-go to?
Back to the country producer whose
wheat proved to be worth more than
he got for it? Is the buyer so well
satisfied with his almost sure margin
of5 cents that he rushes back to the
farmer to pay him the difference? We
would like to publish the name of one
VII would even divide.
instead of the margin being cents,
as claimed, the pool Is really working
on margin that will approach
nearer to 8 cents. This is another
reason why we protest against the
powerful pool. It is not only demand
ing larger margin than before, but
Is doing SO in the face of the fact that
the present system of handling the
grain enables it to add from one to

Do thoroughbred COWS require bet
ter care than common COWS? asks IN
Arkansas correspondent. Yes, we re-
ply, and will proceed TO explain the
reason. In the first place the
thoroughbred is partly the product of
great care. She is calved and reared
under the most favorable circum-
stances. The purpose is to produce
the best cow possible, and to do that
the care exercised is of character
that borders on pampering, in many
cases at least. On the other hand eX-
ira care Is not taken with common
stock. If such care was given our
common stock would be many per
cent better than it is. Now we have
on the one hand an animal that is not
at all used to hardship and on the
other one that is to a greater or less
extent. Of course the former cannot
be expected to stand what the latter
will stand. Besides the Thoroughbred
costing a good deal ofmonry, we must
take the best of care of her in order to
realize upon our Investment. Hence
the thoroughbred must have the bet
ter care. 1t would be profitable, as
we have already intimated, if the
common cow had equally as good
care, but she will live and do some
thing, ifshe does not get it.-Western

DON'TATTEMPT

The Glencoe Register tenders the
following seasonable advise: "Don't
attempt to do business ION the quiet"
If you are doing an honorable business
advertise it and let the people know
what you are about. It's the firms
who advertise that are making the
most money. Look at the business
houses in our own town, and the truth
of what we say will become apparent.
The firms whose names appear are
the ones who are handling the most
goods; and il isn't necessary to say
they are not handling
the goods for their health
only. Don't harbor the idea a moment
longer that a standing advertisement
does no good. If there were no such
things as newspapers in existence
upon this sublunary sphere of ours,
there would probably be no advertis-
ing done. But the hard cold fact re-
mains: there are such things existing
(although, in some cases, that's about
all that can be said of them) and while
they do, some few sharp business
men are, by advertising in their
columns, going to rake in the ducats
in return for goods-and don't you
forget it. The wise old mans advice;
"My son patronize the man who adj
vertises," is pretty generally known
and acted upon, and when some fine
morning these "penny wise pound
foolish" business men awake to find
their occupation gone, they will re-
greet with much lamentatiSn and woe
they had not needed in season the ad-
monition, "adyertise,n

Had the Stevens County Agricultu-

the amount of money they were to

would have been done and the Fair
would have been the greatest ever at
tempted in the county.
No one who visited the Fair can
longer doubt the profitablsness of

Clearwater Enterprise: Who is 1t
that does not welcome his home
paper above all other newspapers?
We always read that paper first whose
contents we are already the most
familiar with. The correspondent
who writes an article for newspaper
invariably reads his own communica-
ton before any other, when the
paper falls into his hands, not that
he expects to find any change or al
teration from his manuscript, but be-
cause there is sort of charm about
seeing how his own words
and thougts look when they appear
in print. III a reader could be assured
before seeing his local paper, that he
was already acquainted with every
circumstance related therein, he
would manifest the same degree of
satisfaction in coming its columns.
In writing up news for publication,
the reporter should not be undecided
about the Importance of an item by
reason that Everybody knows it al
ready" That's just the kind of news
that interests people. Of course
everybody wants to hear what they
don't know, also, but if they did not
see something familiar in their local
they would not be salts
