Supt. Bangs Report.
Bismarck Tribune:

Bismarck Tribune:
Reports of state institutions and
boards are being received by the
governor Of che work done in
the past biennial period. The
report Of the trustees and superin-
tendent of the state school for the
deaf and dumb at Devils Lake has
been filed. The report shows an
expenditure during the biennial
period of $19, $50 for improvements
bringing the value Of the institu-
ton: up to $42,370. The attendance
during the past year was SO, Of
whom 81 we're boys and 80 girls.
Superintendent Bangs recommend-
ed a change in the manner of tax
ing the census of the deaf Of the
state. At present it is taken by
the assessors. This method is not
satisfactory and it is urged that
hereafter the census be taken with
the regular school census in each
county and be reported by the
county superintendent. It is al
SO urged that the legislature pass
q law making the education of
deaf children compulsory. The
trustees estimate for the expenses
of the ensuing biennial period is
$37,400, being $1,000 for main
tenance, $40, 700 for salaries, $4,000
for wages Of employees, $4,000 for
fuel and the remainder for Incl
dentals, books, medicines, etc.
The great need of the institution
now is an industrial school. Many
Of the boys are approaching man.
hood and in addition to receiving
an education they should be taught
a trade. The addition of the man
ual training school is strongly
urged by Superintendent Bangs
and the coming legislature will un-
doubtedly make an appropriation
sufficiently large to establish this
much needed branch.

Moody,s Vote of Thanks.

Possibly the most novel response ever
made to g request to return a vote of
thanks to a chairman was that made
by Mr.. Moody during his first visit to
England.
He had attended meeting at which
the Earl of Shaftesbury was chairman.
The duty of proposing vote Of thanks
was assigned to him and the announce
ment made:
"Our American cousin, the Rev. Mr..
Moody Of Chicago, will now move a
vote of thanks to the noble earl who
has presided on this occasion"
The whole thing was quite out of Mr..
Moody's line. English formalities might
or might not have come gracefully
from his lips had he attempted them,
but he did not. With an utter disre-
gard of conventionality he burst upon
the audience with the bold announce
ment:
''The speaker has made two mis-
takes. To begin with, I'm not the Rev.
Mr. Moody at all. I'm plain Dwight l..
Moody, Sunday school worker. And
then I'm not your American cousin.
By the grace of God I'm your brother,
interested with you in our Fathers
work for his children.
"And now about this vote Of thanks
to the noble earl for being our chair
man this evening" I don't see why
we should thank him any more than
he should thank us. When at one time
they offered to thank our Mr.. Lincoln
for presiding over a meeting in Illinois,
he stopped it. He said he'd tried to do
his duty, and they'd tried to do theirs.
He thought it was about an even
thing all round"
That opening fairly took the breath
away from Mr.. Moody's hearers. Such
a talk could not be gagged by any
known standard. Mr.. Moody carried
his English audiences with him from
that beginning to his latest labors.-

HOGS ON TIE DAIRY FARM.

L have found in my experience that
hogs go mutually with dairying, and
| that it pays to keep them on the dairy
farm even if for no other purpose
| than to dispose of the skim milk
| profitably. Few dairy farmers can
| find market tor all their dairy pro-
| ducts, and the waste sometimes is
large. If this waste can be converted
into something profitable, no matter
how small, it may turn an otherwise
losing business into one that pays. We
cannot do better in the present condi
tions of dairying than to find some
market for all the by products of the
farm, and if We succeed in doing this
/ am sure there will be a living and
something more found in dairying.
Hogs go with the dairy for several
reasons. There is first the need of
plenty of milk to raise hogs success
fully, and if we had to buy this we
would hardly figure out much profit.
The swill barrel need not be the old
fashioned sour mixture that was
can be composed of sweet skim milk
that when fed with a little grain
makes the very best fattening ration
for hogs. Then the young pigs must
be raised on sweet milk and weaEed
gradually from their mother with the
greatest care. Tt is only on the dairy
farm that one actually finds milk in
sufficient quantities to be extravagent
with it in feeding pigs. This extrava-
gance is really economy when we
consider on how many dairy farms
:he same amount of skim milk is
actually wasted.
Not only this, but the hog requires
good pasture today as we'll as the
COWS, and when you raise grass and
clover for one you have an excellent
food for the other. The hogs that are
reared when young on good sweet
milk, turned out in the clover field in
summer, and topped off with corn,
make the ideal creatures for the mar
ket. We need the corn for the dairy
cows too, and one class of farm ami
mails eat what the others do not like
so we'll. The cows will eat the young
corn stalks in winter while the hogs
would turn away from them. But the
corn forms the ideal food for fatten-
ing the hogs. In this way the two
animals fit together and make excel
lent ones for the dairy farm. Since
I have been increasing my herd of
swine | have become more convinced
than ever that hogs are actually
ut cessary To Tie successful develop
ment Of dairy, and the man who
does without them is losing money
that he otherwise might make. -Ec
