Too Fat to Milk.

A friend of ours has made up his
mind to get rid of his cows. He keeps
a dairy of II head and has had pretty
good hired man who has done most of
the milking. Just before the late hot
spell his man went away and got
married, leaving our friend to do the
milking as best he could. Now he is
fat old fellow, and milking is about
the hardest work he can do, for you see,
he amt built right and then the flies
did their very worst and his experience
for the past few days has not been one
calculated to fit him for the kingdom
of heaven, and so he has decided to
get rid of his dairy. This problem of
milking the cow is a serious one and
comes the nearest to being agricultural
slavery of anything connected with
the farm. flour girls would only take
as kindly to milking the cow as they
do to playing the piano there might be
found a way out of the trouble.

A Blessing in Disguise.

While the men who have the wheat
to sell may not fully appreciate the
statement, is is none the less true thai
the lowered prices for this cereal which
are obtaining as the results of the
enormous crop of this year are to the
Iowa farmer blessing in disguise.
A big price for the crop this year
would have most certainly acted as
an incentive to return largely to the
raising of wheat as leading crop and
this we assert is in violation of the true
policy which should always govern
north Iowa agriculture. We want to
repeat what we have SO often before
said in this department, viz: that the
COW, the hog, and the sheep should
form the foundation of our agriculture
that the products of the farm should be
fed out on the farm and every man
should be in a certain sense amanufac-
turer as we'll as producer ofraw mater
ial, and secure for himself a manufac'
turer's profit in converting this raw
material of his farm into some form
of finished product. With wheat sell
ing at primary markets at fifty cents
as it is likely to do, the temptation te
60 back to wheat culture will be re
moved.

Forestalling Evolution.

All breeders of pedigree stock, says
an English correspondent Of The Breed
er's Gazette, take upon themselves .
most onerous and responsible task. They
undertake to forestall evolution and to
determine which animals are the fittest
to survive. can remember in a COM
paratively short time vast changes
brought about in the Shropshire, and I
may venture to say that the alterations
have been great improvements, but in
trying to improve some points there is
o danger of deterioration in other quail
tiles. Therefore breeders individually
and collectively have to be on their
guard to avoid serious mistakes. for the
improvements and mistakes they make
are spread broadcast over the land to
the advantage or disadvantage of agri-
culturists in general. That man is for
tunate who has learned by experience
the animal he requires-that is, what
faults he must always avoid and what
faults he is content occasionally to put
up with-for it won't do to repeat any
fault too often-and also what points
are essential. When he has acquired
this, he has learned the art u breeding.

MY Schoolroom.

MY SCnOOlTOOus
Ihave closed my books and hidden my slate
And thrown my satchel across the gate.
Ny school is out for a season Of rest.
And now for the schoolroom love besti
My schoolroom lies on the meadow wide,
Where under the clover the sunbeams hide,
Where the long vines cling to the messy bars
And the daisies twinkle like the fallen stars,
Where clusters of buttercups gild the scene
green,
And the winds flying footsteps are traced as
they pass
By the dance Of the sorrel and dip of the grass.
My lessons are written in clouds and trees,
And no one whispers except the breeze,
Who sometimes blows from q secret place
A stray sweet blossom against my face.
My school bell rings in the ripping stream,
Which hides itself, like a schoolboy's dream,
Under the shadow and out of sight,
But laughing still for its own delight
My schoolmates there are the birds and bees
And the saucy squirrel more dull than these,
For he only learns in all the weeks
How many chestnuts will fill his cheeks.
My teacher is patient, and never yet
A lesson of hers did once forget,
For wonderful lore do her lips impart,
And all her lessons are learned by heart
Oh, come oh, come, or we shall be late,
And autumn will fasten the golden gatel

Coffee and Sugar.

The United States imports coffee to
the value of 500, 100000 and sugar to
the value of 500, 900, 900 year. 1t is
fact worth noting that the new terri
tory acquired by the late war can be
made to supply the entire amount OF
each of these commodities needed by
this country, not at once, Of course,
but the soil and climate of these new
territories is perhaps better fitted fol

Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1898-08-31

We have the Wyant, DeSota, Rock
ford, Stoddard and Hawkeye plums
fruiting with us this season. The soil
on which the trees grow is clay loan.
Each of these varieties is well loaded
with fruit. The Wyant is by all odds
the.best of the lot, the Hawkeye next,
khen DeSota, Stoddard and Rockford,
this last named the poorest of the lot,
land after this year going out of our
orchard by top grating with some
ketter variety.
