capacity Of land to produce spring wheat
was very largely limited after several
decades, in fact, after fifty years, it
was an Improbable crop to raise
Illinois and Iowa We're at one time just
as good wheat-raising communities as
Minnesota. But with stockraising the
result was entirely different Instead Of
taking from the land, the cattle enriched
it. He believed that wheat raising made
tramps of farmers, and affected their
morals too He took the view that it
was almost impossible. to raise the single
purpose animal, the beef ,'critter,'' with
as much profit as by mixing dairying
and breeding for beef.
In closing he believed that hog cholera

contribution every year and without 1t
pork would not be worth half It's pres

the supply.
Have you ever heard Of cure for
hog cholera?" asked $. P. Child, OF
Blue Earth.
Yes, I have heard of lots of cures"
Did you ever know CT cure?"
Mr. Gilfllan replied that he had not.
The disease was like Providence, it haG

c. N. Cosgrove spoke on fattening
steers for the market He gave some
practical suggestions, as well as present
Ing statement of progress made by eight
steers and of their gain made during
the various stages of the feeding progress
He believed that ten months full feeding
was necessary for the Chicago market
and for those who marketed in st. Paul,
which was the most practical point, a
shorter time would do very nearly as
well. To the farmer who fed in happy
go-lucky way, there was nothing in store,
but to him who was careful in the selec-
ton Of his stock and feed systematically,
the best results were assured.
Marketing Fat Cattle was the sub
ject of an address by L. D. Baird, of
Austin, MINI. He opened his remarks

Court Files Lengthy Memoran-
dunn, I'm Which the Law Points
Are Discussed. ee,
Judge Otis has filed an order in the case
of William S. Mowry against Sarah e.
Mcqueen ct al, sustaining the demurrers
of defendants, other than Jefferson &
Kasson, to the complaint. In the mem
iorandum accompanying the order, the
court says:
Plaintiffs alleged cause Of action is
without equity, and barred by. limitations.
Plaintiffs debtor, John Mcqueen. died In
South Carolina thirty-one years prior to
the commencement of this action, owning
Wisconsin lands described in the COM
plant. BY virtue of the laws Of Wiscon-
sin his creditors acquired lien upon
these lands prior to the claims Of heirs
or devisees, but subject to dover Of his
widow. The theory of the p.eader seems
to be predicated upon the fraud of the
widow and heirs in preventing sale of
the lands by the widow, as administra-
trix, for the benefit of creditors, and Ia
effecting one by the widow and heirs. in
consequence of which plaintiff seeks to
recover the proceeds of such sales. Any
sale the widow and heirs have or could
make was of necessity subject to liens Of
creditors. Jefferson and those claiming
under him took title subject 10 ca ms of
creditors, for having taken title without
administration upon the estate of John
Mcqueen they are not innocent purchas-
ers. 1t would seem, then, plaintiff had
plain, adequate and complete remedy at
law by the enforcement of his lien upon
the land, and has no claim against pro-
ceeds OF a sale which of necessity was
made subject to his lien. 1t may be, as
pleader has taken great pains to assert,
Jefferson has been grossly deceived and
defrau6ed by the McQueens and Burhans,
but this alone does not give plaintiff any
standing In court 1t may be true that
plaintiff has but recently learned of the
alleged fraudulent agreement Of the adj
ministratriX and heirs, but he knew of
the land and the rights which the law
gave him more than thirty years ago.
and never for a moment until barred by
lapse of time was he without remedy.
Failure to use such remedy within rea-
sonab!e time is not. to my mind, excused,
and he is not entitled to any relief In
any view of the case there would seem to
be no possible cause of action against
Burhans or Nichols by succession in in
terest. The compensation Burhans was
to receive for selling the lands for JSff r.
son and Kasson Is a matter that concerns
them alone, and Is of no interest to cred
itors. There Is no suggestion that they
are not perfectly solvent and able to re-
spond to any claim plaintiff may have
upon them, and certainly there is no on
In such action as this for their contro-
versy. For similar reasons the same is

U. s. Grand Jury Didn't Regard His
Ofense as Serious.

The United States January grand jury
convened at the federal building yester-
day and received instructions from Judge
Lochren, of the United States circuit
court J. Adam Bede was appointed fore
man and Wallace G. Nye, Of Minneapolis,
clerk There were but four criminal
cases to be presented to the jury one OF
which was disposed of by the jury de-
clining to indict Olaf Solum on the
charge of using Cancelled postal stamps.
Solum was arrested for sending three
letters stamped with Cancelled stamps
through the local postoffice. His defense
was that he found the stamps in his
desk and used them, under the impress
sion that the marks across the surface
were accidental disfigurements, which he
admitted having tried to remove with an
erasure.
The grand jury will probably conclude
its labors today.

day morning at q. m. Mat Cleveland
and John Hobart, both residents of
Central, while returning home from

two men, who stepped from behind
some bushes, covering both men with
winchesters and politely inviting them
to throw up their hands which they
did. The highwaymen then searched
both men and secured seventy-eight

They were evidently new in the
