of two "bulls'' made by Gig Martin on
the old Omaha Herald in 1886. One
night Gig got hold of chunk of Frank

But about the worst break ever mad
on the old Herald was made by Billy
Hardy. The style on The Herald in
those days was to hyphenate and abbre-

Farnam street was styled 'Farnam ST., :"
and Capitol avenue as "Capitol- av."
Hardy lifted a take of commercial re-
view off the hook one night, and it
quoted Bradstreet as saying this and
that. Bill, ever mindful of the style
and ignoring common sense, arranged
the type to read 'Brad-st. predicts, ,"

A FREE CONCERT.

Friday evening free concert was
given, the participants in which we're
members of the institute corps and
people of this city. The Redwood
Falls drum corps made its initial ap-
pearance, and played two selections
that were heartily applauded. The
corps consists of about Is boys of this
city, under the direction of V. M. Per-
sons and U. H. Bergen, and they rat
tied out music that stirred the soul
that evening. The corps was followed
by Mesdames Cooper and johnson in
a piano duet, two clever readings
by the Misses Mabel Mckay and
Myrtle Goodrich, a vocal duet by
Mesdames o. w. Mcmillan and G. E.
Dickinson, an interesting talk on
"Early Poultry Experience" by Mrs.
Ida E. Tilson of the corps and a
piano solo by Miss Grace Clark. This
concluded part one. Part two was i'm
mediately taken up with negro read
ing by Supt. Race, followed by piano
solo by Mrs. o. w. Mcmillan, speech
on Progress in Agriculture" by I. G.
Raynor," Thanatopsis" by VIM Marvin,
an address on Farmers Home bv
Prof. Greedy, and the concluding song
of "America" by the audience.
Every vacant seat in the court room
was occupied during the entertain
ment. The latter commenced prompt

9:l5, and number present congratu-
lated the committee on it's ability to
start the entertainment at the time
announced. and having the conclusion

ton for cleaning hen house, although
fumigation is necessary thing. Mrs.
Tilson advised making everything
movable in the hen houses--perches,
nest boxes, etc.
In reply to questions: She prefers
a ground::::f floor for hen house; Ply
mouth Rock and Wyondottes stand at
the head of general purpose fowls;
wheat and barley is good feed as is al
so corn on cob; bran and shorts make
a good feed; beans, custard, chopped
ham, etc.. makes good feed for young
chicks and they should be fed on clean
boards.
Theo. Louis went to answering ques-
tions at once-On our farm we simply
scald the food in winter; teave the
food warm, at least 80 degrees warm !;
steamer costs $3.50; always grind
feed to cook it; cut corn stalks will an
swer the same purpose as clover; sell
hogs when they stop gaining; shoat
should be ready for market at eight or
nine months of age.
Here A. D. Stewart remarked that
Secretary Wilson had stated that we
got our hogs too fat, and Mr.. Louis,
with charts, roasted Mr.. Wilson to a
rich brown for making the statement,
and the large crowd frequently ap-
plauded him.

Her First Thought.

A steamer was passing by settle
ment on the shore Of one Of the great
lakes, and along the water front were a
few houses built out on piles. An old
man and an old woman, evidently trav-
cling that way for the first time, stood
by the rail. Presently the woman no.
ticed one of the houses built over the
water.
"Well, my gracious, Henry" she ex-
claimed. ''just look at that house!
S'posin somebody's taken sick in the
night and they have to run for the doc
tor. Built right out in the solid water.

and nerve foods. As the first method is not
within the reach of all, the latter offers
the most universal and practical method
of treating the complaint. When it is de-
termined that medicine is to be used, Sc.
lect that one which contains the most nerve
nourishing properties. Do not take nerve
tonics. They only stimulate, and the reaction
leaves you worse than you were before.

Themes for Saturday Mornings
Session..

The hour prior to the opening of
Saturday mornings session of the in
stitute was given over to class exercises.
This is new departure in institute
work. 1t consists OF the enthusiasts in
a particular class of farm work divid-
ing themselves into one class and hav-
ing the institute conductor of that
class give instructions and answer
questions on the class. Each con-
ductor was kept busy during the hour
between nine and ten o'clock, and the
listeners and quizzers absorbed a
whole lot of useful information.
The session proper opened with a
lecture by Mr.. Burch on farmers
fruit garden, diagram of of which
accompanied the lecture. His first
row of trees was an evergreen shelter
belt. Sixteen feet away was his straw
berry bed; then came plums and
gooseberries, red raspberries, vegeta-
bles. blackberries, black raspberries,
apples and currants. An evergreen
belt protects from the opposite side.
In reply to questions: evergreen
trees should be cultivated in August
and fruit trees in June; garden can
be raised successfully between trees;
willow trees are the best protection;
evergreens should be planted in the
spring just as the buds start-never
in the fall; wood ashes are great ferti-
lizers- hard coal ashes have no such
qualities; the Shaker raspberry is best
in this State: the Crescent and War
field are the best strawberries, al
though the Parker and Wilson varie-
ties are excellent. Here VIM. Mack,
in the course of several questions,
stated that he had over 300 evergreens
on his farm near Belview-all Norway
pine, and Mr.. Burch congratulated
him on his success.
The vegetable beds should be sand
wiched in between the fruit beds.
Rows should always be north and
south and the shelter should alone be
on those two sides, leaving east and
west sides open.
Here Mr.. Gregg stated that in buy
ing nursery stock people should deal
direct with the houses, and always
avoid their agents. He stood a cross
fire on raising Strawberries for half an
hour or more; all bringing out inter-
esting points.
Mrs. Ida E. Tilson spoke on the SUBJ
ject of parasites, having chart to
illustrate her lecture, the first part be-
ing the new hen going to market on a
bicycle. Persian and Turkish insect
powder applied direct to the fowls,
two times, the last eight days after the
former, will destoy all lice on poultry.

We cdnuOt STOP mere, however, out
on the morrow, after our arrival, look
around for packers to take our sup
plies to the foot Of the White Pass, Is
miles. There are, say, four in our par
ty and we have 5000 pounds of stores
which have been beforehand compact
ly put up in the proper shape and
sized packages to be carried in this
way. Our packer loads our stuff on
twelve horses, making them up in two
strings with two men to lead the hors-
es and as guides. There are two cara
vans of six horses each. The front
horse is led and the next behind fast
ened to his tail. In this way we reach
the foot of the White Pass, Is miles
from Skaguay. Now we have pre-
cipitous mountain 10 front, rising 800
#. up, up which, for the sake of econo-
my, we propose to pack our stuff our
selves. Here comes in the first days
work we have had, but leaving one
man at time as guard we heroically
trndge and climb carrying our belong
ings over into the basin of Lake Ben
nett. At this point we must wait un-
til the ice thaws out, which will be
some time from May 10th to the LIST
of June. We pitch our tent or build
shack of logs and proceed to build a
boat large enough to carry us and our
supplies. If, say two of us are car
penters, and the others are handy
helpers, we can accomplish this in ten
days and then we must simply wait.
The ice breaks up finally and wait
ing bit yet that we may not get into
swift water until all danger from float
ing ice is past we move by rowing
down Lakes Bennett, Fagist and
Marsh to the head of White Horn
Rapids. This is the first danger place
on our way and we must decide to pay
a guide five shillings to pilot us
through or unpack and carry our
goods around about mile and then
run the boat through ourselves. From
this point we pass through Lake LIE
Barge to the Takeenah river and then
mostly by river to Dawson, with no
difficulty except at Five Finger Rap
ids, which are not particularly danger
GUS though calling for skill and eau
ton in the man at the helm.
l will only add an answer to the
question you have doubtless in mind,
as to why men start off now if they
must wait at Lake Bennett over three
months for the ice to move. There is
no use in the world. One intending
to take the land route should not start
from St. Paul before April.
will say in closing that it does not
seem as hard matter to go to Daw-
son as it did before we had talked
with so many who have made the trip
and there are many ways in which it
will be easier during the next few
months.

Afternoon.

aiming COWS and horses befor large
crowd in the court house yard between
one and two o'clock Saturday. The
object was to bring out the different
qualities of the different breeds ex-
hibited, and while his points we're ques-
toned at times, most of them were re-
ceived with feeling that they we're
brilliant. Following the inspection
Mr.. Gregg answered many questions
in the court room regarding the value
of cattle in general. He said that a
steer reared from dairy stock was
practically worthless. Mr.. Gregg adj
vised farmers to abandon the idea of
combining dairy and beef stock, but
to choose between the two, and breed
to the best blood. Mr.. Gregg said
that he knew of a native COW at the
head of $50 blooded COWS for both
quality and quantity of milk. He
would not allow we'll bred dairy calf
to suck the mother, and a good beef
calf's mother should not give enough
milk to support the calf.
Mr.. Raynor advised breeding from
the purest sires, and tolG farmers to be
sure that the animal had the pedigree
on it's back rather than on paper, be-
fore buying.
Mr.. Greedy cautioned farmers to he
careful in breeding sheep, saying that
a success and failure could be made
in twelve months. He insisted that a
mutton sheep was what was wanted
and he believed that Shropshire
crossed with the native, dark in the face
and on it's legs, was the best. Rams
should be bought at shearing time;
they should be kept from the sight of
the flock during all but serving time.
Barns for sheep should have eight foot
doors and yards should have 16 foot
gates, to protect against destruction of
unborn lambs by the crowding in and
of ewes. A high net fence with barb
wire on top will keep out the wolves
A well-kept flock of grade Shropshires
will shear from seven to nine pounds
of wool.
Theo. Louis was the last speaker of
the corps. Hogs was his theme. He adj
vised farmers not to use deaf sows for
breeding purposes. A SOW, he said,
shouldn't farrow until IL months old,
and then should not be bred.again un-
til two years old. They should nurse
pigs three months. After SOW has
reached two years of age she can be
bred twice a year. If they make good
mothers keep them as long as they are
good breeders. In making selections
he advised farmers not to select SOW
or boar that droops back of the should
ers or had an oval belly. He then
showed drawing of a SOW owned by
Joseph Tyson of this city, which he
considered an ideal SOW. The drawing
was made two years ago.
Prof. Gregg then regretted the
necessity of closing the institute, and
said he would be glad to continue it
for two or three days longer on &C.
count of the interest shown. Andrew
Stewart arose, and in an eloquent
speech, moved vote of thanks to the
instructors. This was done by rising
vote and the session was declared ad-
journed. The instructors left on the
Northwestern train for St. Paul.
