Keep the Stables i'm Renair.

How much does it cost to raise
an acre Of soiling corn, ready to
cut up? That depends on the
magnitude of the crop, the kind of
tools, and the amount of labor put
upon it. An acre Of sod land gave
me fifteen big two-horse loads of
fodder, fully eighteen tons Inter
est on land 5000, blowing 5000,
dragging and planting, $1.o0.
Three times cultivating with Breed
er's seeder, one and one-half hours,
80 cents; twice cultivating, four
hours, $1.00; seed 25 cents; taxes
81 cents; total $500. What a
heap Of comfort and profit that
acre gave me in October, and had
on hand for some time. Swim
ming pals of milk tells me that it
was good way to assist in raising
the 'depression" of the milk pail,
incident to COWS grassing in Octo-
Der and November in a summer
pasture and camping in a fence
corner nights. It is strange that
not one dairyman in ten thinks it
pays to stable COW in the fall I'M
til the wild geese fly south.
About this time look out for
sounds of thes axe and hammer in
the old stable, mailing on swinging
boards, and putting down another
layer of planks in the stalls. The
better and paying way is to have
the stable SO it can be used every
day in the year if need be. Keep
it in repair and in use both early and
late in the season, when occasion
requires, and in the fall long be-
fore our feathered songsters from
Alaska bugle the fast coming win
ter. That's progress in stable care

WITH this issue the UNION COM
pletes the fourteenth year of its
existence. During all these years
its present publisher has been at
the helm. We have not amassed
much wealth, but at the same time
we have no reason to complain of
the support received. We have
labored earnestly to promote the
material interests of this section of
the State. We have no promises
to make. It shall be our aim to
make the UNION a better newspa-
per than it is. That is all.

unabated to the close of the session

found dead at his residence in Beard
man. During the past fifty years he
had lived alone, devoting his time to
saving money, which he deposited in

living the year round did not cost him

sold a neighbor a load of hay for $27.
Gilbert punctually collected the interest
each year, and last year accepted the

Ills ItIluG Ill w IoCOuSIH WIS poorer
than the sandiest farm in Mile
Laos county, but he had enriched
it and made Improbable by seeding
to clover. Mr.. Louis was followed
by DR.. Dickson, one of the best
veterinary surgeons in the United
States, who talked interestingly on
the subject of horse-shoeing. He
had casts of horses feet and he
made himself thoroughly under
stood. Mr.. VIM. Sommerville gave
a pointed talk on ''Small Fruit. :"
He claimed that the soil of Mile
Laos and Sherburne counties was
we'll adapted to the raising of small
fruit. Mr.. Sommerville's particu-
lar hobby is evergreens. He told
his hearers how to successfully
raise and care for evergreens.
The afternoon session, Tuesday,
was occupied by DR.. Dickson, who
talked on Care of Animals After
Operations,'' by Theo. Louis, on
ERRORS of Swine Breeding" and
by William Moore on breeding
and Rearing of Sheep"
During the afternoon of Tues
day and all of Wednesday, the
cooking school under the super
vision of Mrs. W. M. Hays, was
in session in the G.. A. R. hall,
The hall was constantly crowded
with ladies, even standing room
was at premium. They ladies,
without exception, speak very
highly of Mrs. Hays and her meth
dds of cooking.
On Tuesday evening DR.. Dick
son delivered a very interesting
lecture on "India, and a Trip to
the Tropics.'' The doctor resided
in India 30 years and knew whereof
he spoke. His discourse abounded
with sparkling anecdotes that
brought down the house.
Mr.. Sommerville opened the
second days exercises with an in
structive talk on ''Apples for Min
nesota," and how to raise and care
for evergreens. He exhibited
about 80 specimens of as fine ap-
pies as ever we're grown, which
were raised on his farm in LeSueur
county. DR.. Dickson, VIM. Moore
and Theo. Louis interested and in
structed the audience the balance
of the day.
w. W. Gamble, political
pessimist, lectured on Wednesday
evening on 'tPublic House-keep-
ing" He WAS dry and prosy and
the audience exhibited signs of I'M
easiness before he had half finished
his rambling discourse. He was
the only speaker during the session
that failed to take with the crowd.
The audience applauded vigorously
when practical Theo. Louis in
formed Mr.. Gamble that he, Louis,
had a farm that did pay.
w. J. Dyer & Bro, of Mime
apolis, placed a splendid piano at
the disposal Of the conductors of
the Institute and the vocal and in
strumental music furnished by
Miss Eva Ross, Miss Helen Plum
mer, Mrs. Guy Ewing, Mrs. I. E..
Burgan, and Messrs. Chas. A.
Dickey and I. E. Burgan was
highly appreciated by all present.
These ladies and gentlemen, and
particularly Mr.. Dickey, contrib
uted much to the enjoyment of all.
The two days session of the Insti-
tute here will result in great good
to the farmers of this vicinity.
The able lectures by the plain
practical conductors will bear good
fruit in the future. God speed the
Farmers Institutes. The State
should make liberal provision for
their maintenance.

Nothing in the way of development or
discovery causes the look of incredulity
to possess the features. or any start of
surprise. The impossibles of other
ages are the commonplace demonstra,
tons of this. The micro-graphophon
is indicated by its combination title as
an instrument that records the most
minute particle of the human voice.
The condition of the throat is repre-
scented in the sound. and this has a
structural correspondence, as In the
phonograph. The record made by the
sound indicates any affection or disease,
affording q valuable aid to the medical
diagnosis. Sounds imperceptible to any
ear have their impress made by the in
strument with the accuracy and infalli-
bility that are ascribed to the penman
in the book of fate. The finer pulses of
sound have their moral quality. Hypoc-
risy and falSeness have different vocal
qualities from candor and truth. 1t is
