TIVE ONLY WAY

There is only just one sensible and
practical way in which to improve the
quality of the calves for beef purposes
in the dairy sections of the west. and
that is by placing good beef bred sire
at the head of the lerd What is want
ed all through these dairy sections is a
COW which will make about 25O pounds
of butter a year and raise calf which
will make profitable beef animal.
But few men want to go into the dairy
business as an exclusive thing. Such
of course will do best to keep purely
dairy breeds. The best interests of the
average farmer will be conserved by
using his dairy to as great an extent as
beef makers as in the line of butter
producers. To do this the sire must be
of good beef breeding.

SMALL FRUIT CULTURE.

a reader of these notes living in
southern Minnesota wants to know If
it will pay him to take up the culture
OF small fruits, and, il so, what to plant
and how to got at it. The first and most
important thing to be considered in
connection with the culture OF small
fruit is the market for them, and this
applies anywhere where the business
is taken up. If home market can be
found, this is best; if this market Is
too limited to take the product of a
small fruit garden. a foreign market
must be sought. Then comes the item
of freight and express charges and
commissions. which all too often COB
bic up the entire proceeds of the con-
signment. Small fruits are exceeding
ly perishable and unless they can be
placed upon the market fresh and nice
will seldom bring paying prices. Civ
en- market. Strawberries and red
raspberlies will be found the most
profitable fruits TIC raise. In the mat
ter OF strawberries care should be
taken to grow largely of the very latest
maturing varieties for the northern
market, for home grown early berries
always have to compete with berries
grown south. while the late maturing
varieties. coming after the bulk of the
crop is gone. will always bring the
highest prices. These late varieties

HOW ABOUT The SEVEN GIRLS:

HOW AEOUT THE SEVEN GIRLS:
The Capitalization of the country
schools is a topic which is receiving
much attention all through the agricul-
tural portion of the country. BY con-
solidating the schools of an average
civil township and transporting the pu-
pills to the central school it is claimed
in fact, is we'll proved-that the cost
will be no greater than under the pres
ent system. Assuming that the aver
age township now has ten schools and
that three teachers would readily han
die all the children taught at the CEN
trail school. this plan would throw out
OF employment seven lady teachers in
each township. or not less than 100
such teachers in each county. The
question arises. Should this be done,
what is to become of these nice girls?
If they We're only willing to turn their
attention to housework and let us use
them in that way, we could feel quite
reconciled to the proposed change; but,
dear, dear. the girls would never take
kindly to that! So for the sake of the
girls. if for no other reason. we are in
clined to think the old way of conduct
ing The schools is the best.

One of the most successful dairymen
in Iowa soils his cows in the summer
in place of pasturing them. He makes
regular sowings of oats and Canada
field peas each week from the time the
frost is gone in the spring until the
last of June. This forage is cut fresh
each day and fed the cows in the barn.
Later in the season he has sweet corn
for ration. No flies, abundance of nu-
tritious food all the time and care in
the selection of his dairy herd have en-
aAled him to bring his butter product

1t is said that our modern system Of
education as applied to farm boys edu-
Gates them away from the farm; that
the tendency of the system is to in
cline the boy to professional life and
give him a distaste for the so called
humdrum life Of the farm. The nat
ural remedy for this state of things is
coming along pretty fast. the overflow
ing ranks of young men seeking place
in the professions making it year by
year more and more difficult for them
to get place or foothold With this
is constantly lowering rate of wage
for professional services. and it will
not be long before farm life will cease
to be 80 unattractive.

A recent victim of Filipino treachery,

of the heroes of the San Juan Hill
fight at Santiago. Lieutenant Koehler
was led away from his command by
the peaceful promise of native officer

promising young officer is ample evil
dence that democracy in the United
States army is not a myth. He enlist
ed as private and after serving as
corporal and sergeant was promoted
to lieutenancy. During the Cuban
campaign he was an aid on the staff

The way in which lot of

day afternoon and night, on ST.

them, to their officers who did
nothing to stop it. and to our city
for permitting such things to go on
unrebuked. 1t was as much as a
lady's life was worth TO be on the
streets for three hours or more.
This does not accord very well

LIES LABOR DONE.

On Tuesday last one of the sweet
est and most useful lives ever lived
in this community closed it's record
of patient and unselflsh devotion.
At the ripe age of 80 years Mrs.
Margaret f. Graham, widow of the
late Mr.. John r. Graham, passed
over the river and is now resting
under the shade of the trees in the
better land.
For n lifetime the home of this
sanity woman has been an orphans
asylum, and in it they received the
tenderest care that could have been
bestowed by the most devoted and
loving of mothers. Besides raising
a large family of her own, she
reared to lives of usefulness nearly
a score of bereft children.
OF, her own untiring work in the
cause of the Master, her several
pastors will all bear loving testi-
mony. From girlhood she was a
devoted Christian and member
of the First Baptist Church of this
city. She had seen that church
grow from a small handful TO the
large number of over 800. And she
WIS the oldest member of the flock.
Humbly, gently and persistently
she went about the work of her
hands, and, when commended by
her loving friends for the blessings
she had conferred, she was wont to
say 81 have done so little-nOthing
worth while-7for Him who has done
so much for me-. D."
AS the infirmities of age began
to bear upon her she longed for the
home beOynd, where so many of
her love and lost had preceded her.
Quietly she faded away and fell
asleep as the tired child upon its
mothers breast. What a glorious
awakening on the other shore.
"Her children and her children's
children rise up and call her

band trusted i'm her.

THE INAuGuRATIoN.

On Tuesday last Mr.. J. G. w.

has been acting Governor since
April, was formally inaugurated
into that position.
The day opened gloomy and cold
but by the time the procession began
to form, the clouds had dispeis d
and the sun came out bright and
clear. 1t remained bitingly cold,
however, throughout the day.
One or two special trains brought
in parts of two regiments of State
Guard to the number of about 600
men. They were under the COM
mand of Col. Roger ID. Williams, I'd
Regiment. and Col. Thos. ]. Smith,
Sd regiment, the whole under COM
mand of Gen. David r.. Murray,
Adjutant General. The procession
consisted of the troops named,
together with the various Colonies
on the Governors staff; the Duck
worth Democratic Club, of Cincin-
natl, Ohio; the Louisville Mayor
and city officials; the officials from
Lexington and Fayette county; the
Franklin county officials; the State
officers; some twenty or twenty-five
men and boys on horseback;
and cOlored club composed of
negro Democrats from Louisville,
Lexington and this city.
The procession was marched
through the principal streets of the
city and reached the Capital
grounds at l o'clock, where the
new Governor was sworn in by
Chief Justice j. H. Hazelrigg. and
short inaugural address.
The weather was so cold that the
ceremonies were as brief as possibly
could be made under the circum-
stances. There were about 5000
people in the city to attend the

strife of the past, and more cor

elements in the State.
