BUTTER Us. WHEAT.
Why Dairying Should be {
Prominent Feature Of Di-
versified Farming.
DAIRY FARMING PAYS WELL.

The following paper was read by A
w. Mowbray at the dairy convention
held at Fergus Falls last week ani
reported by Wheelock's Weekly O
that city:
"Mr. President, ladies and gentle
men: Without doubt our state with it,
fertile valleys, beautiful rolling
prairies, magnificent lakes and streams
and perfect atmosphere is as we'll ad
apted for daring as any state in the
union.
SIN the days of early settlers oul
virgin soil produced all kinds Of
grains, grasses and vegetables sc
abundantly that those settlers were
led to believe that natures store-house
was so capacious that the fertility
then ut their command would never
become lessened or exhausted. Con.
tinued heavy crops for some year,
confirmed their belief and, almost
without exception, they had no fear
until, without warning, they were
confronted with light crops, the re.
suit of depleted soil.
"Many men ask the questions,
"What shall we dO?" "How can we
restore to our soil some portion of the
fertility of which we have robbed it?''
10 tbs wiser heads it soon became ap.
parent that at least part of the soils
production must be returned to it each
year and the heavy drafts must be dis.

Of the farm must be fed at home and

IL Is estimated that Is per cent of
the fertility in the feed given COW is
saved in the excrement; that every
time We feed to our COWS a ton of wheat

Better Than Eggs,

German Egg Flakes are used for the
purpose of settling coffee. They are
put up three dozen packages in case.
Each package retails for Is cts, and
contains enough material to last q
family of from four to ten persons,
using it each day, at least three
months.
Its great advantage over eggs is,
that it is great deal cheaper, is al
ways fresh, climate does not effect it,
Is more convenient to use and does not
soil the COTE pot. It's healthfulness is
testified to by the official Bacteriolo-
gist of ST. Paul, who has carefully
ana.yzed it, 1t is pure albumen, the
same composition as the white of an
egg.
1t works equally well with all grades
of coffee. Not a single person who
has tried it but will testify that it is
just right in every way, for the pur-
pose for which it is made and it is
meeting with large sale. It's merit
advertises it. Send for sample and
give it fair trial and you will be
convinced.

residence in the town made many
friends who will regret their leaving,

strom has had charge of Mr.. Stads-
vold's mill he has proved himself to be
thoroughly familiar with the bust
ness and an expert four-maker. Star
buck is indeed fortunate in having 80
able a man interested in their mill.
Mrs. Hanstrom left for Sank Centre to
make u short visit with relatives be-
fore going to their new home. Mr..
9anstrom leaves in few days. In
his place Mr.. Stadsvold-has secured
the services of an experienced miller,

comes to take charge, and will with
out debut continue to hold the Fosston

Even :toothsome clover is questioned
when considered from an economical
point Of view.
ssExperiments have shown that
about seven tons per acre OF field cured
fodder corn can be obtained on aver
age land. One ton of timothy hay
contains 81 pounds OF protein. On
laid that will produce two tons OF
timothy hay per acre or 1874 pounds OF
protein, we may reasonably expect
two and one-half tons of clover or 1925
pounds Of protein, or six tons OF fod-
der corn or 43O pounds of protein.
Fodder corn is decidedly in the
le4d as forage crop in our state and
has but one drawback; that is, it is
much harder to handle than any other
forage crop"

A Notable sale.

Sometime since c. W, Parker,
James McCraken and B. w. How
formed syndicate to purchase some
fine polled Durham, registered stock.
The animals were of a milking strain,
and very superior individuals of the
breed. The other day they sold the
bull to Henry illus of Meier Grove
for $3.50, and they now have four
COWS and heifers and a fine founda-
ton for a good herd. Mr.. How has
withdrawn from the syndicate. and
the other two will purchase a young
bull, and continue along the lines al
ready laid down of breeding blue.

Q 1852.
'Thecommercial value of the nitrogen,

wheat is 1871 while the manurial value
is $2.63. The commercial value of a
ton of milk ia 81. O9, while the m anurial
value is only SO cents. We learn from
this that the farmes who sells a ton OF
hay parts with ingredients which, il
purchased in the form of commercial
fertilizers, would cost him about s.. 10;
hat it he sell 1908 pounds of wheat,
he sells an amount of nitrogen, phos-
phoric acid and potash which would
cost him 1871 to replace his soil.
With 1000 of milk he gives nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash worth
81 %. In other words the amount of
fertility with which he parts in the
ton of wheat is worth 81 63, while of
the ton of milk is 80 cents.
eff the farmer instead of selling his
crops, feeds them to live stock on the
farm, as far as possible, "a large pro-
portion of this fertility, as has just
been shown, is retained on the farm.
And if feeding is carried to such an
extent that feed is purchased in addi.
tlon to the supply grown on the farm,
a considerable addition may be made
to the fertility OF the farm.
admit then, If you please, that the
grain and grass products of the farm
should be fed at home. But why es-
pecially to dairy COW?
"rhe average cost of the years food
for dairy cow is about $50. She
should produce not less than 800
pounds Of butter, which at 18c per
pound gives us S54: 5000 pounds of,
skinned milk at 1Oc per hundred
weight gives us So, making a total OF
$50. Admitting that the calf she pro.
duces, and the fertilizer she leaves on
the farm will pay you for the caring
of her, you have balance of $50 with
which to pay the interest on the in-
vestment and swell your bank account.
Again the skinned milk is almost
indispensable in growing th-. young
pigs to that point where they can
economically utilize the surplus corn
and in due time become another source
of profit.
''When we have concluded to give
the dairy cow the place she deserves
on the farm, we must at once set our
selves to the task of producing in the
most economical manner the forage
crop she requires. More intensive,
farming must be the thought constant:
~ in mind. We cannot afford on our.
land worth $50 or $50 per acre, to
raise timothy hay to feed dairy COWS.

Burglars Drill and FORCE the
Safe of A. M. Mads4h-Do
An Expert Job Squire
Eighty Dollars and
Leave No Clue.

On Saturday last, when the store Of
"a. NJ. Madsen was opened BY his
brother, who is in his employ, the
discovery was made that the Aak lad
(been forced and nearly eighty dollars
i'm cash distracted therefrom. The
burglars had made q Systematic
search through the papers in the safe,
scattering them about on the door,
and had taken thirty dollars from the
till In the safe and fifty dollars from
AN envelope. Two holes had been
drilled in the face of the safe which Is
a large, square, fire-proof iron box,
mot designed against expert burglars,
and the combination knocked out with
a punch. Marks on the safe clearly
indicatethat the thieves were provided
with specially designed tools, and the
face of the safe indicates q liberal use
of oil in drilling. The only thing
used by them which was left is a jaw
broken from pair of plyers. One
drawer in the safe was locked, and it
was forced and broken in gaining &C.
cess. but there was nothing of value
i'm it.
OF the money stolen, fifty dollars
had been left with Mr.. Madsen a few
days before by Mr.. Strommen, wheat
buyer for the Northern Elevator. He
had the money in his pocket one even
Npg, and as he was about to make a
Grip to- Ada on the night train, he re-
( luested Mr.. Madsen to take the money.
q was placed in an envelope, marked
With his name, and placed in pigeon
llole under some valuable papers.
The thieves found it, and Mr.. Strom-
men in providing against possible
loss made sure one.
Entrance was gained by forcing the
Sack door of the building. A storm
DOR outside is usually hooked with
lree strong iron hooks, and Mr..
adsen's brother feels confident he
"""ely fastened them early in the
ming. AS they we're not forced but
H. lock on the inside door was broken
seems evident that one of the burg
srs-there were evidently two of
.hem-stepped to the back part of the
store unobserved aud unfastened the
looks, and the door being closed it
was unobserved when the store was
closed for the night.
The till of the money drawer in the
counter was opened and SO left, but as
{ it contained only few pennies they
were left.
: The thieves were only outfor money.
Thus far Mr.. Madsen has not missed
any goods from his stock. They were
evidently professionals, and did not
larry in the city after their work was
