Does Dairying Pay.

Does dairying pay? What a ques-
ton. If by pay you mean netting an
income, it certainly will unless grossly
mismanaged and neglected, but when
you come to the amount of that in
come the question is instantly remov-
ed from the dairy to the man. Each
owner of a dairy will succeed with it
to the limit OF his ability and he must
govern his expenditures for family
comforts by that ability. If he has
not. much enterprise or Judgment
then he must livevery frugally but if he
is a young Napoleon in the dairy field
then he and his family may spread
themselves. There is an abundance
OF room in the dairy business for any
sized genius, from the man who nlilks
two COWS and peddles his milk by hand
and afoot, to the man who owns and
runs twenty to thirty factories. When
we come, though, to consider the pay
ing part Of it, in ten years you would
probably find that the two COW man
has more money than the man with
thirty factories, at least such seemsto
have been the fate of such large enter
prises. A little success in the dairy
has it's temptations like any other
business to induce men to over. crop
themselves, while the man who starts
on small scale generally climbs to
| the top American Dairyman.

There is still auothrr and far greater benefit that will accrue to Helena on account of this school, and tlat is the increase in population and the standing oer city will obtain as an educational center. /. Our public school now enjoys repu- tation second to none in the state, and should We get the high school in ad- dition and make It the success We have made the Jefferson school, 1t will add materially to the reputation of Helena.
