State Dairymen's Meeting.

LH
At the State Dairymen's convention
held in Cakes last week, the president
and professors Of the state agricultural
college took prominent parts. It was
stated that North Dakota has over 49,.
OOO.O0O acres of the best grass land in
the world, three.fourths of which is not
adapted to agriculture aud only q
small fraction utilized evening for graz
ing at present. President Power
pointed out that the bulk Of this grass
is annually given up to the prairie fires.
We have been trying for years to force
nature to do something she cannot do,
while if we let her alone she will give
us a crop of grass every year. For
years We have been crying out "what
shall we do to be saved'' from the temp.
tation of wheat growing and we are here
to discuss the surer income to be
realized from dairying and stock raising.
He spoke Of exclusive wheat raising as
seductive and disappointing, and after
years of low prices and short crops and
consequent enlargement Of indebted
ness,a good crop and better prices are
sure to stimulate the farmer to try it
again. He suggested the propriety Of
adopting the experience Of other COM.
munities THAT have paid of the mort
cages that had accumulated upon their
wheat farms and where they now enjoy

the blessing of wealth instead of the
curse of debt. He spoke of the indiffer-
ence on the part Of the farming com
munity and the total lack of encourage
ment on the part of the state to advance
the dairying industry but predicted a
hopeful future.
Mr.. W. H. Morrison of Hawarden,
Iowa, delivered a brief address on the
subject of poultry raising. He thought
that the hen and the COW could go to-
gether'nicely. He SAID that the annual
product of eggs and poultry amounted
to 1920, 0 10000, while that Of wheat
amounted to s237, 1000 900; cotton, $780,
100000; swine, $4,000, 900; sheep, $685.
100000; silver but s72, OOO, ZOO. according
to the statistics Of 1895. He declared
that the product derived from poultry
exceeds that of silver mines by s2lS,0O0,-
600; that of sheep by 1926, 100000; of
wheat by $50, ZOO. 10000, and that of swine
by slO4, 100000.
Professor Shepperd spoke particularly
of the necessity of variety in the rations
provided for stock, as we'll as the varie-
ties of native and imported grasses
adapted to the conditions prevailing
here. He thought Austrian bronze
grass the most promising of the varie-
ties yet tested and one equally adapted
for hay or pasture. Corn was recon-
mended as a good green summer forage
and a good general purpose crop. He
thought either flint or dent corn could
be successfully grown, though flint is
doubtless better adapted to northern
ATTITUDES. Minnesota King, Minnesota
Flint, Mercer Flint and King Philip are
all good varieties for North Dakota.
Peas were also recommended as an ex-
cellent forage plant when cut green
and a good substitute for oil meal if al.
lowed to ripen.

Printers Always Patriotic.

Our old friend Joe Miller, noting the
rush and roar Of patriotism in North
Dakota cannot resist his approval in a
brief note from Washington, wherein
he says:
Being an old. time Dakotan and Bis
marcker I am always interested in
everything Bismarckian. I have noticed
that North Dakota soon filed her quota
for volunteers, while many slow-going
states are yet to be heard from. I also
note that the printers in Bismarck have
not halved the thing, but have gone'to

Funds Needed for the Exhibit.

Says the Fargo Argus: Col. Louns-
berry has returned from Omaha and re.
ports the Trans-Mississippi exposition a
great success. One hundred thousand
people were present on the opening day
and the attendance has been satisfac-
tory since then, though many of the
exhibits are not yet complete. North
Dakota has an .xcellent location in the
agricultural buildi g, on one the main
aisles, at it's intersection with one OF
the aisles from a main entrance opening
on the lagoon. The buildings are quite
equal in appearance to those of Worlds
Fair and the grounds are quite as at.
tractive.
Many calls has already been made for
North Dakota printed matter and the
exhibit, consisting of grains and grasses
from the Red River valley, and threshed
grain from other parts of the state,
wood and other features. received many
compliments. The commission is ham
pered for funds to maintain the exhibit
and :. is short Of the money
necessary to pay the expenses of install.
ing the exhibits, without a dollar to pay
for maintaining it. There are no salaried
persons connected with the exhibit nor
is it expected,to keep any in connection
with it, but it is essential that there
should be money to pay the actual living
expenses of those necessary to keep
headquarters open, in order that those
seeking information may receive it and
receive courteous replies to inquiries.
The exposition will be kept open till
November and during that time many
thousand people may be interested in
North Dakota and in the Splendid OPP
portunities for investment in this state,
The people in that portion of the country
tributary to Omaha are furnishing the
best settlers it is possible to gain for
North Dakota, and it would be little
less than a disgrace and a shame if the
commission should now be compelled to
close the North Dakota exhibit and call
those in charge home for want of funds
to pay the daily expenses.
Will not the enterprising people of
the state take up this matter and see
that funds are provided. Real estate
men and others who have printed mat
ter are requested to suggest it, if for
warded to Mr.. Barrett at Omaha it will
be placed where it will do the most good.
Col. L~ounsberry assisted by H. A.
Thomas, commissioner of agricul-
ture, is preparing printed matter. They
would be glad Of suggestions. They
need funds to pay the actual cost of
printing. There is no money in it for
the commission but there is advantage

More North Dakota Gossip.

Special correspondence of the Mime
apolis Journal from San Francisco says:
The First regiment of North Dakota
volunteers broke camp at Fargo just one
week ago today, but it seems a year.
The first battalion zane over the North
ern Pacific, and the second over the
Great Northern, and entire journey wa
a grand ovation. The ladies of Port
land and San Francisco we're especially
attentive to the welfare of the boys,
bountiful lunches having been provided
at these points,
The train was not marked by any
special incidents, the only noticeable
feature being the intense good will
manifested in a thousand different ways
by the people all along the journeys
course.
The rich and varied scenery of the
Rockies, the beautiful views of Mount
Shasta and the Siskiyon range, as we'll
as the more peaceful farming valleys
scattered through the mountains, all
added to the pleasure of the boys from
North Dakota, many of whom had never
before seen the mountains.
1t is not known when the regiment
will be moved from here, but it will not
be until the men are completely outfit
ted. The acquisitions for the new uni
forms were made today, and the men
will all have, besides the regulation
blue, a full suit of brownish gray can
vas. These will be used for service in
the field. and have a very business-like
appearance. There will be about no
dress-parade soldering on this expedi-
ton, and some of the paper-collar soldi-
ers will get broken from wearing plea
dilly collars.
Life in camp is very pleasant: This
regiment has a good quartermaster in
Lieutenant Berg, and the men are well,
Lieutenant Colonel Truetnann is a
f~avorite with every mar in the regiment
and the companies are all seemingly
we'll satisfied with their officers. It is
only a mile to the Preside, where the
regular soldiers are stationed, and many
of the boys have been over getting
pointers in the art of soldering.
There have been four cases of measles
reported from G and D but there is
very little sickness in the command.
The reception given the regiment on
their arrival in this city was a most
aattering one, and as they marched up
the streets, favorable comments could
be heard on every side. The size and
great muscular development of the
men were especially noticed.
Officers and men alike are looking for.
ward with pleasant anticipation to the
time when they will embark for the
Philippines.
The two battalions will have a swim.
ming match at Sutro baths on Sunday
next, between picked men from each,
and the event will draw a large crowd.
The volunteer troops will all be paid
up to the Both of June as soon as the
rolls are made out and the paymaster
can get around. !.
The ladies of the Red Cross society of
San Francisco have sent gifts of fruit,
tobacco, ETC., to the regiment, which
were all cheerfully and gratefully re.
ceived by the boys.

WASHINGTON, June THE one i'm.
portant bit Of news received at the
navy department during the day came
from Admiral Dewey and tod of inn
portant successes by the insurgents at
Manila. The announcement is as fol.
lows:
Admiral Dewey reports that the in

within the province Of Cavite during
the past week. They have won several
victories, taken prisoners about 1900
men and so officers of the Spanish
troops. not native. The arsenal of
Cavite has been prepared for the &C.
cupation of United States troops upon
their arrival on transports"
Dewey's Plans Working Well
The officials have been more anxious
than they cared to betray as to Ad.
miral Dewey's condition. They were
not seriously apprehensive of personal
danger to the feet, but an impression
was gaining ground that the admiral
had not maintained the same measures
Of success in his operations in Manila

the report received goes to show that
his plans are working out admirably.
that he has succeeded in placing upon
the insurgents the burden of conduct.

Spaniards, while he himself is lying in

Awaiting tht Arrival of Troops,
and that he has succeeded in prevent.
ing the corruption of the insurgent
leaders by the Spaniards, which ap-
peared at one time to be threatening.
There is some speculation here by
anxious minds as to how the insur.
gents will treat the prisoners they have
taken. It was reported by cable soon
after he secured the co-operat ton of the
insurgent chief Aguinal0o that Ad.
miral Dewey would see to it that the

that Aguinaldo will see to it that this
agreement is observed in the case of
the 1900 prisoners he now holds.
