A BIG FEAST.
Extensive Arrangements For the
Farmers Institute.

The committee appointed to meet
and discuss the best methods of
utilizing the farmers institute teachers
when they come met at the court
house Monday. j. Tyson reported
to the committee that he had been in
communication with the county COM
missioners and they would give the
court house as the place of meeting
when the institute men came. It is
expected that there will be a larger
crowd of farmers this time than the
court house even will hold comfort
ably. Every intelligent farmer is on
edge about hearing some new thing
which he can turn to account. It was
arranged that some of the young men
singers should be asked to contribute
music to tighten up the two days
meetings which, by the way, will not
be stiff by any means. A2sub-com-
mittee, consisting of o. L. Dornberg,
G. E. Mckay and j. Tyson, were az
pointed to make out program of
subjects over taking the full extent of
farming and connect the names of two
or three farmers with each subject
who, as the subjects were being talked
about by the instructors, would ask
questions SO as to have everything
made perfectly clear.

FIFTEEN yEARS AGO.
A Mighty Blizzard was Raging
Over the prairies Of
Minnesota.
Great Loss of Cattle on the
Ranges.--Senatoria1
Convention.

Fifteen years ago yesterday one of
the worst billiards. known to the old
est inhabitant was raging in this coun-
try. Yesterday was clear and fair and
as balmy as the gentlest California
cline.
Fifteen years ago yesterday stock,
then on the herding ranges, was driv-
en- from corrals by the fierce storm
and when the blizzard came to an end
two days later it was found that many
animals had perished il the storm.
Cattle belonging to w. E. Baker. in
the Barber herd, and to G.. w. Braley,
both being herded west of the city,
were victims to the awful storm.
When spring opened and the ice
passed from the river many carcasses
of these animals were seen going over
the falls of the Redwood, on to the
Minnesota and Mississippi with the
EuSulnS waters.
Fifteen years ago Tuesday was held
the Senatorial convention at Tracy, at
which delegates Erickson and Larson,
the former of Yellow Medicine and
the other of Lac qui Parle, betrayed
John F. jacobson and cast the two
votes that nominated S. D. Peterson.
1t was the commencement of S. D.
Peterson's political career. The Red
wood county delegates to that conven-
ton were D. L. Bigham, F. L. Warn
or, w. P. Dunnington, H. L. Daniels,
Il. D. Chollar, J. j. Coyle and G.. w.
Braley. When the storm ceased two
days later they walked from Tracy to
Walnut Grove and there took a team
for Redwood, it requiring over IL
hours for the trip from Walnut to this
city. OF the coterie only Messrs. Big
ham, Warner, Dunnington and Daniels
are now alive. SAINT. Baker was with
the party. He, too, has PASSED away.

CARL IN ALASKA,
The Youngster Sees Muir Glacier
in Behring Sea.

Carl George, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
G. w. George, writes another interest
ing letter to his parents from Sitka,
Alaska, under date of Sept. %. In
the letter he states that the revenue
cutter, of which crew he is member,
is just returning from a ten days
cruise up to and around Muir Glacier.
The glacier, he says, is about 200 feet
high and mile wide, and a good
many miles long.
"Just two times as high as the wa
ter tower in Redwood Falls" he re-
marks, "and on top there are many
cones of ice ranging about thirty feet
high. While we we're there the sun
came out about ten minutes and the
ice assumed all the colors. The ice
keeps falling from the top and comes
down with tremendous roar and
splash. There is always swell in
the water caused by the falling ice,
and these swells are large enough to
make ship roll.
We fired two blind projectiles at the
glacier. The prejectiles or shells are
the kind you load with dynamite and
have primer on the end so that when
they strike anything they explode.
They are as big as an average persons
head. The reason we call them blind
projectiles is because they are not
loaded with dynamite. They did not
do much harm as the ice was too solid.
They knocked off only small pieces of
the latter.
"The other day, while we were COM
ing back from juneau, going to Sitka,
we saw small steamer, tug, high
and dry on the beach. She had lost
her propeller on rock, so the Captain
put her on the beach. At 2:3O a. m.,
when high tide came in, we pulled her
off the beach and towed her back to
Juneau.
ION Sept. 26th the whole Behring
sea fleet of revenue cutters joined us
in front of Sitka. The feet is COM
posed of The Rush. The Grant,
The Perry The Corwin,' and The
Wolcott,' the latter being the one of
which am a member. Capt. Hooper
of the Rush, Capt. Smith of the Perry
and Capt. Munger of the Corwin were
on board this morning and inspected
the vessel and it's boilers.
81 think we may possibly go south
with the feet for the purpose of get
ting new boiler, a new berth deck
and steam windlass. We will prob
ably be in the Behring Sea next sum-
mer with the feet" "CARL."

The Breeding Boar.

First, the boar should be kept in q
lot separate from the sows. A grass lot
is preferable where he can have plenty
Of exercise and in summer time plenty
Of shade and pure water. Feed good,
healthful food, not much corn Ground
oats and ground wheat, about two-thirds
oats and one-third wheat, make an ex-
cellent food. In winter, or through the
breeding season, feed some oilmeal once
or twice week; also give him butter
milk, as the acid in it reduces his flesh
and helps to keep him vigorous. Don't t
let the boar get too poor. It is mistake
to let him get as poor as Jobs turkey.
To get lots Of pigs the boar should be
kept in good, healthy condition, not too
fat, to make him sluggish, or too poor,
but in as good health as possible to get
good, strong, healthy pigs. We should
remember that this is laying the foun-
dation Of success in the coming pig crop.
If the pigs come weakly and diseased,
no amount of feed will bring them out.
The service of the boar is very i'm
portant, and where great many mis-
takes are made Some will turn the boar
in with the SOW, or several sows, per-
haps, and let them run with him all
through the period of heat. The boar
will no doubt serve SOW six or eight
times during her heat. This will run
him down, until he will not get full,
strong litters. Every breeder and farmer
as we'll as those who raise hogs should
have breeding box. This can easily be
made of common fence boards | Nby s
inches. Make it 16 to 18 inches wide,
26 inches high and feet long, without
top or bottom. Nail inch slat across
the bottom Of the rear end of the box,
then make a bridge feet long, 2 feet
wide and : inches high. Place this at
the rear end of the box. When the sow
is in, this will give the boar seven
inches elevation, and in this way he
can serve the larger SOW without strain
ing himself. One service is enough; then
put the SOW in quiet place by herself
until she goes out Of heat. This is for
large sows and large boars. If small
SOW and large boar are used, put tenn
porary bottom in the box to raise the SOW.
Always watch and assist the sow by plac-
ing broad board under her belly to
hold her up. In this way small sows
may be bred to heavy boars. Swine
