We are informed that the Hack
ney-B oynton Land Co., is under
taking to organize a large cream
cry comp any of eastern capitalists
for the purpose of establishing
creameries in this state. The
plan is to build a few large butter
making plants at several conven-
lent points and to supply farmers
with a certain number of COWS and
sell separators to them, the COWS
and machine to be paid for in milk.
If the plan goes through it will be
known in a few weeks. Mr.. Hack
ney says that southern Minnesota
was brought to the front after
wheat raising had given out as a
sole dependence by the creamery,
and he believes that the butter
making business and an increase
in stock will be the solution Of the
problem of settling up the>lands
west of the James river in the
manner in which they should be.

If you get a letter from the gen
eral land Office asking for an at
fidavit as to what was done each
year on the tree claim upon which
you proved up several years ago, it
means that more official red tape
is to be unwound, and you have
got to unwind it. AS soon as you
get the letter, take two witnesses
it isn't necessary to have the
same two who were your witnesses
when you proved up-and proceed
at once to have your testimony
taken. 1t is exacting a great deal
to require a claimant to remember
several years after he has made
proof, just what he did each year
in the way of planting, replanting
and cultivation of trees; but you
have to remember it just the same.

foremost railroad attorneys of the age.
Even if he does not think of an an.

that will demoralize the court and ju-
ry, and whenever a witness tickles a
jury his testimony gains vastly in its
influence.
Eyes, Pm speaking from experience.
The only witness who ever made me
throw up my hands and leave the
courtroom was a green Irishman. a
section hand had been killed by an eX.
press train, and his widow was suing
for damages. l had a good case but
made the mistake of trying to turn the
main witness inside out.
"In his quaint way he had given q
graphic description of the fatality, oc-
casionally shedding tears and calling
on the saints. Among other things, he
swore positively that the locomotive
whistle was not sounded until after
the whole train had passed over his de
parted friend. Then l thought | had
him.
See here, McGinnis,' said 1; you
admit that the whistle blew?
"'Yes, sor; it blewed, sor'
Now, If that whistle sounded in
time to give Michael warning the fact
would be in favor of the company
wouldn't it?'
"'Yis, sor, and Mike would be tisti

"'Never mind that You were Mikes
friend, and you would like to help his
widow out, but just tell me now what
earthly purpose there could be for the

Eating and Colds.

Drinking at meals induces a person
to eat more than he otherwise would,
and excess in eating Is one of the great
causes for sickness. In fact, the two
great dietary failings seem to be over.
eating and drinking of too little water
at the proper times. Many colds are
from overeating or from eating gross
food. Persons with abundant lung
power who exercise n greal deal and
breathe much can dispose of n large
quantity of food, but the more dell
cate and sedentary should eat moder-
ately. A cold once taken will run its
course in spite of what may be done
for 1t unless it is attended to within
As hours after its inception. The treat.
ments vary. The cutting off of sup
plies by skipping a few meals is one
of the principal things, for the old say.
ing about stuffing a cold and starving
a fever should be literally amplified in.
to the condition and conclusion that il
you stuff a cold you will have a fever
to starve. Some persons assert that
any cold, If taken in time, may be cur.
ed without any medicine whatever by
following the simple precautions OF
keeping warm, going without eating
for "A hours and drinking largely OF
some sort of warm tea. Another plan
Is that of drinking cold water freely
and going without eating.-Exchange
