NOTES OF THE FARM.

Feed puts cie most flesh on young
bones
Keep pieces of chalk where the
young animals can lick them.
Every animal must speak for lsrelf.
and only It's pedigree can speak for
it's offspring.
The coming farmer must trust iess
10 his eye and more TO foot rules and
poundweights.
Do not try TO repair q rail fence by
piling rails on top. In this work 90

The secrets of large yields always
and everywhere are rich soil, good
seed. and thorough tillage.
The farmer who makes his own pork
and beef puts another bond on health
and pays himself for so doing.
Don't talk while milking. You can't
milk 50 fast: the COW will learn TO give
down her milk slowly: and the talk,
ing excites the cow.
When the law requires a man to res
train only his own stock. he does no,
need half so much fence as when he
must fence against everybody else's
animals.
In making men cut Of boys, and wo-
men out of girls. consider that the
character of the material has some
thing 10 do with how 10 cut TO the
best advantage
A good crop of both corn and weeds
cannot be grown on the same ground
at the same time. any more than two
railway trains can pass each other
on the same track.
Profitable feeding must he steady

Every dangerous bull should be de
horned. The operation is best per
formed on young calves. but can be
done On mature animals without In

eXtrava gance in farming. A bull can
do as much work as an OK without
injuring his breeding qualities.
An experiment made with COWS
proved that when a handful OF salt
or about two ounces Of It was given
every day. The yield OF butter was
increased one-fifth: and when salt was
held the yield fell of in the same pro
portion. The reason, beyond ques-
tion. is that as salt is required for full
digestion of the food. more OF the food
was changed into milk Keep rock

Officer Ben Bacon saw a suspicious
looking character skulking along Third
street, near NicOlet avenue. early yes
terday morning and stopped him. The
fellow was unable to give any account
OF himself, SO Bacon took HIM to the
station and locked him up. He gave
his name as Andy Greenlee. and later in
the day Bacon discovered that he
roomed at III Second street north. The
officer did little detective work, and
upon searching Greenlee's room found
it filled with articles of merchandise
and jewelry. There was enough Jew
elry to start fair sized store. There
were nearly hundred rings, including
number Of valuable set rings, several
dozen ear rings, watches, chains, cuff
and collar buttons. also lot of cutlery
and Silverware. There is no doubt but
Bacon made good catch, and all that
he desires is to find the owner or owners
of the property, which he is sure has
been stolen. Greenlee refuses to say
where he got the stuff,so he will be held
for Identification.

THE BABY'S CRIB.
1t Was Used for Fuel to Warm the
Family.


There was an extraordinary demand
for help at the office of the poor depart
ment yesterday. The superintendent
and his employees were kept busy the
entire day, and nearly fifty cases Of
restitution were relieved. The eX-
tremely cold weather of the past few
days brought to light more of these pitt
fIl cases of poverty than would have
otherwise come to the surface. y hard
working middle-aged man named Frank
Clark called upon the mayer and told a
narrowing tale of starvation and utter
restitution. He lives, together with his
wife and six small chileren, in the
frame house at $40 Sixth avenue north.
Since Friday he has managed to keep
life within the bodies Of his family with
seventy cents worth Of food. Yesterday
morning the family awOke, and found
themselves without food or fuel. The
baby'S crib was chopped up, and fire
was made with the pieces. The mayor
gave the unfortunate man an order on
the poor department for wood and food.
Othcer Lehman reported to head
quarters that he had found 4 family
named Ldpland, living at SO Third
street north, in an almost starving con-
dition. An eX-employe of the city en-
gineer'S department reported that he
was without food or fuel To make
matters worse his wife had but recently
given birth To a child, after which dis
ease set in in one of her limbs, neceS-
stating ampuJatiOn above the knee.
He was given an order for wood and
flour.

SALTWATER NE VS..

A rather mysterious diamond robbery
occurred in this city yesterday. George
Rutherford, the drive. employed by the
Adams Express company, was deliver
ing express packages, and among the
number was a package directed to G.
HenningSen from II. Keck, Cincinnati,
containing tour diamonds, valued at
about $3.50. Rutherford stepped into
Willman's jewelry store to deliver an
other package, and when he returned
to the sleigh he missed the HenningSen
package. Whether it was taken while
he was in the store or before he started
was question that he was unable TO
answer, but the superstition is that 1t
was taken at the depot. The box was
found there. but the diamonds were
missing, but later in the day Baggage
Marster Harkins found the package on
the depot platform. The diamonds were
returned TO the express company, and
were subsequently delivered.

United States attorney general notify

Sunday the attorney general replied
that they had been sent here by mis-.
take, but he asked that the board of
managers receive them. The matter
was discussed by the board last evening,
but 1t is not known what action was
taken.
The board of county commissioners

Annual Meeting OF the Organiza-

Hot Time in Prospect-The
State Elevator Law and Other
Matters to Come Up-The Sage
on the Ground.
The annual meeting of the Farmers
Alliance, which will convene in the
Lumber Exchange hall today, bids fair
to develop into spirited scrimmage.
The advance guard of the meeting ar
rived in the city yesterday, and they are
at the Brunswick. During the after
noon lgnatius Donnelly. the president
of the Alliance, put In an appearance;
and Secretary Stromberg, of Forest
Lake, also arrived, together with other
members not quite SO conspicuous.
The convention will open today. and
will continue two or three days. All Of
its business sessions will be executive,
but all open meeting has been arranged
for the evening of the 10Th, and it is
possible that another such meeting will
be held, although it has not yet been
arranged for. At the open meeting adj
dresses will be made by S. Nj. Owen.
Ignatius DOnnelly, w. w. Erwin. of st.
Paul, and John Arnold Keyes, of Du-
luth.
1t is understood that doc" Fish, the
erStwiile lieutenant and man Friday of
Donnelly, has arranged to place the
latter on the spit; and he gives it out
cold that the Sage must be turned

arms may result In the shedding of con-
siderable brig Int red gore.
Mr.. DonnellY declares that he is not a
candidate for reelection as pres ident,
but i'll spite Of this assertion the mem
Ders are likely to thrust the honor upon
him for another term.

The matter of freight rates will be q

The regular monthly meeting of the

yesterday afternoon in the Highland
Park Presbyterian church. The prin-
cipal topic of consideration was mission

necessity of additional aid in the fur

Who Will Be Chief?

1t Is said the Democratic: aldermen
will indulge in the luxury of secret
caucus this evening. The principal
matter to be discussed is the appoint
ment of chief of the fire department.
OF course the present incumbent, Au-
gustus Runge, is a candidate. though it
is likely a vigorous opposition will be
made 10 his reappointment. Frank
Stetson will be put forward as candi-
date, and there are many who think he
will be put back into the position he
held so long. Winn Brackets name
has also been mentioned.

H1aSOnS NJ \(Itland.
OMAHA, Neb., Jan. S.-The delegates
to the international bricklayers' and
masoDs' annual meeting, led by band.
marched this morning through several
of the principal streets and wound up
at the hall, where speech-making, well
coming and congratulations were in
dulged in.
John Withheld. president of the local
bricklayers' and masons' union, was
chosen temporary chairman, and he
called upon Mayor BeInis to make the
welcoming address. The mayor was
loudly cheered.
Gov. Crounse was then introduced,
and, on behalf of the state Of Nebraska,
bid the delegates welcome.
President John Hearth, of the inter
national union, replied on behalf of the
union.
The number of delegates in attend
ance was not as large as had been eX-
pected short time ago. but in view of
the hard times, President Hearth
thought the local unions had done re-
markably we'll to send as many dele
gates as were present.
At the afternoon session a committee
on credentials was appointed, anu ad-
Journment taken until tomorrow.
