THE NEW CREAMERIEs
Better Avoid the Travelling Spec
latOrs and Build for Themselye

Better Avoid the Travelling SpeCu-
latOrs and Build for Themselves.
Under the inspiration of vOluble can
vassers for Chicago or other supply
houses, creameries are springing up in
most of the towns of Dakota and North
ern Minnesota, and buOyant anticipa-
lions are had over the results. Under
careful and judicious management no
doubt success will attend them, but it
IS believed to be best to avoid these per-
ambulatOry spectators who propose to
bald fine structures, stock them with
costly machinery, and rate their skill,
knowledge, ETC., as half the capital stock
as against the farmers 5000 or $1,000
cash. The farmers should operate only
among themselves, do the best they
know how, and they will sue
ceed quite as well as they would
in a company of strangers. One who
has had experience outlines this plan:
Where there are from $50 to 500 cows
within distance of ten miles each way
in good locality, creamery can be
run successfully. The best way is for
some influential man, in whom the com
munity has confidence, to go about and
see who will and who will
not patrOnize creamery and
stay by III one year. a meeting is
then called, the matter is talked over,
and site decided upon. Building
shares are then issued to the amount of
the supposed cost of the plant. A good
creamery can be put up and stocked
with all needed machinery for from
5000 to $1,000, provided the patrons
will buy their own cans, which will cost
from so cents to 81 per cow, each lot of
ten cows needing can. The stock is
usually put out in $40 shares bearing 10
per cent interest.
The building committee is selected
and get a plan of the building. The
machinery is selected from list of sup
plies and the plant made ready. Officers
must be selected to run the affair, but
need only consist of an auditing com
mittee and salesman; the latter will
act as treasurer of the concern.

THE SALE OF ALARM.
Comments Made on the Sale by
the Shirt of the Times

the Spirit of the Times.
The sale of Alarm by Commodore
KittsOn to Maj. B. G. Thomas, of the
Dixiana Stud, at Lexington, KY, is a
matter of congratulation. Maj. Thomas
has secured, in our opinion, the cheap
est stallion in the country at $4,000. To
A larm it means a transfer to the scene
of his early triumphS and the oppor-
tunity which has been denied him for
several years at Chestnut Hill, as both
Maj. Hubbard and Commodore Kittson
have been rather prejudiced against the
horse and favored Reform, Woodlands
and Dalnacardoch to his detriment. AS
We once told Maj. Hubbard, we could
never see the basis of this, as
Alarm has given the Erdenheim stud all
the success it has achieved since Lean
ington's death. He sired Pardee, Issa-
Quena, Panique. Abba, Austriana, Au-
strienne, and divides the honors of Rat
taplan's paternity. In our Judgment,
Alarm is the best sire in the country for
the kind of racing now so popular, viz:
two and three-year-old events. His
blood cannot be excelled. BY Eclipse
(son of Orlando and Bay Middleton
mare), from Maud, by Stockwell; grand
son by LanercOst. it reads speed in every
line. Alarm looked like StOckwell, ex-
sept in color, but in characteristics he

HANDLE THEIR OWN GRAIN.
The Advantage to Farmers of Com
trolling the Shipments of Wheat.


Where the conditions have been reas-
enable, and the management judicious,
the farmers have found it advantageous
to ship their grain through their own
organizations. The impression preva-
lent with many of them, that grain can
be handled to advantage only through
elevators, is not sustained by the ex-
perience of those who have tried the
farmers agencies. In some instances
elevators and regular buyers have tried
to crowd them out by putting up prices,
but a company composed of farmers
would have nothing to fear in this line.
Their only object would be to get all
they could for their grain, and if the
regular buyers were willing to pay
more than they could get by shipping
through their Own.warehOuseo or elevators
they would simply have gained that
much as result of their organization.
A gain of or 2 cents a bushel on
what grain hundred farmers have to
sell would pay the expense of operating
warehouse for year provided it did
not handle the grain of any but the
stockholders. In this matter of grain
selling the farmers should remember

Profit in Mutton.

1t is remarkable fact that while this
country can boast of possessing some of
the finest fiockS of mutton sheep in the
world, such as Oxfords, Shropshires,
Hampshires and SouthdOwns, yet it is
far behind the European countries in
the production of choice mutton. Our
farmers send plenty of sheep to market
to be consumed as mutton, but such
sheep are mostly of the breeds used for
producing wool, as farmers do not take
as great interest in breeding for the
choicest quality of mutton as they
should. George w. Franklin, in an adj
dress before the Iowa Stock Breeders
association, goes so far as to say that
the consumers of mutton, by being ac-
customed to the mutton from wool
sheep. have not learned to demand
quality. If such be the fact it leaves a
large field open for supplying mutton of
a superior quality, and the demand will
increase yearly. The most profitable
sheep is the one that will lay on the
most meat in the shortest time, and Mr..
Franklin says that farmers ''shOuld
breed for mutton and let the wool take
care of itSelf.'

seemed TO breed back to Vulture OR
lando's dam, the fieetest thing in Eng
land. He was never beaten after
he was two, and in Kentucky
he sired 1imyar and Danger, two
OF the most conSummate SprinterS in
this generation; also Gabriel. Mr..
Welch bought him in 1877 to succeed
bennington, but Maj. Thomas was so
in love with him, because of his being
the sire of his own great Himyar, that he
leased him to make the season OF 1878
in Kentucky. The next year he sue
ceeded bennington at Erdenheim.
There he has been substantial success.
We are aware that Maj. Hubbard has
had to contend against prejudice on
the part of some owners that the Alarms
had bad ankles" and "broke down
early" but we are reminded of remark
of the late Francis Morris, that "a bad
horse never broke down-he hadn't
speed enough to break him down."
A Word From c. Q. Weeks.
c. @. Weeks, who is we'll known as
the gentleman that drove Lord Nelson,
a Minnesota colt. to a three-year-old
record of 2:261t, at Chicago, and who
has for the last year or more been with
George W. Sherwood, is now located at
Highland stock farm, Dubuque, To-,
the property of III. l.. and +. ID. Stout,
the home of the great Nutwood. The
friends of Mr.. Weeks will be grateful to
learn that he is connected with such a
commanding and celebrated establish
ment. a letter Just received from Mr..
Weeks shows how grattied he is to be
with such Well-bIed animals as he finds
there. He says: The great NutwoOd
is in fine form and condition. He is
driven regularly every pleasant
day four or five miles. The
brood mares are also driven out
every day. Nutwood'S book has
been full for some time, and a number
of applicants had TO be turned away.
Mares from great distance are sent to
him. They come from Pennsylvania,
Kentucky, Illinois, Michigan and many
other states. j. Y. Stryker, of Jersey
vile, ILL.,, has applied for his service
for seven mares. He is the gentleman
who sold, last fall, yeariing by Nut
wood, for 50. $50. All the NutwOod colts
on the farm have been sold except three
weanlingS, one of which, Dubuque, by
Name, $500 has been offered for and
refused. and another, tilly, for which
81, 500 has been offered" Mr.. WeakS
further says: The brood mare -Four
Lines, No. 1 of the catalogue. foaled a
large and fine horse colt, from NutwOod,
on the 22d, which is the first colt of the
season. About twenty-four Nutwood
colts should he fOaled this season.
Many OF the mares are very heavy in
f0al now. and all the horses on the farm

Promise of a Good Year.

A presidential year is generally some

present conditions do not give ground
of apprehension that any serious effect
will be produced by campaign excite

very favorable. The cattle growers
may look for satisfactory advance
in prices, increasing for several
years. Hogs brought paying prices

had been sent to neighbours for hoe,
and on returning passed by Blankenship' g
house, who stopped him with: You ras-
cali What made you report Henry Tyre
for stealing wood?" Andrews replied:
Il will report anybody | catch stealing
wood" Blankenship said: Il have cut
wood off Garrison's place, and if you re-
port on me l will shoot the top OF your
head off,
When Andrews got home he got gun
and started with the intention of settling
matters with Blankenship, but Mr.. Gar
rlson, his employer, persuaded him to let
matter drop and sent him out into the
field to work. About an hour later the re-
port Of gun was heard from the direction
IN which he had gone to work, and the IN
mates OF the house on Investigation saw
Blankenship leaving the field hurriedly
with the gun in his hand. Andrews was
lying few feet from the place where he
had been at work with horrible load
in his left side made by a charge of
small shot. He said that Blankenship had
come on the field and had shot him down
without a word. Andrews died in twenty
minutes after he was shot.
Upon the trial or the case the defense
placed Mrs. Blankenship, the wife of the
accused, upon the witness stand, and she
swore that in the quarrel of the morning
she had been an innocent spectator, and
that Andrews had abused and black
guarded her. This, under the laws of
the state, would have reduced the
crime TO manslaughter, but her evil
dence was not corroborated by circumstan-
tial and other evidence, and the jury
disregarded it, 1t was shown that while
Blankenship was a large, muscular young
man, Andrews was a small, delicate boy,
Just recovering from a painful illness.
The jury believed if Andrews had insulted
Blankenship's wife in his presence, he
would have certainly killed him then and
there. Blankenship is % years old; has

The EAGLE AND IHE POPE

LINCOLN, Neb., May 26.-President Fitz-
geral and Secretary Sutton, of the Irish
National League of America, have tele-
graphed to different members of the exec
utive committee call for meeting of the
committee at Cleveland, O., June l. The
object of the meeting is not given, but 1t
is undoubtedly in regard to the action mel
cessary in the face of the pope's receipt,
which has caused so much discussion in
League circles. In this city the headquar-
tiers of the League, Bishop Bonacum. the
new resident bishop has inaugurated a
system of boycott against the officers OF the
league, refusing Secretary Sutton, Mr..
Gam and others admission TO his pres
ence, on account OF the resolutions passed
at recent League meeting at the instance
of President Fitzgerald. These resolu-
lions declared the pope had no right to die
tate politics to the National League, or
interfere with its plans, and further prom
ised to Irish parliamentary members the
support OF the National League OF Ameri-
ca To the plan of campaign aS followed By
Irish leaders. These facts point to inter
esting action of the League executive
committee at Cleveland. The membership
OF the committee comprises the general
officers Of the League, with one member
for each state and territory and Canadian
province.
