WHAT COWS WILL DO.

A dozen good COWS we'll fed will make
$500 or more year besides their calves.
They will furnish milk and butter and
beef, which so a long way toward good
living. They will turn waste straw and
cornstalks into money and make good
use Of beets tops and cabbage leaves.
They will trim your hedge fence and
grow fat at it. And besides all this they
will improve the farm they are kept
upon. While farm We're only grain is
raised to sell must Of necessity become
poorer and poorer unto the end OF the
chapter. Cows will pay the taxes when
the wheat fails and the flax gets frost
bitten. And they will pay you every
month, or every week for that matter,
for their food and your labor. You
don't have to trust them six months
and then not get anything as you some-
times do with wheat crop.-Mandan

the editor, but the postmaster is not to
blame. For instance. there was a man
named Tim Short who sent us three

the matter. Upon investigation Of our

Muscles and Brain.

In one of his recent lectures at
Clark University, Prof. Angelo Mosso
of Turin, averred that Physical edu-
cation and gymnastics serve not only
for the Development of the muscles,
but for that Of the brain as we'll"
1t is becoming evident, he said, that
as much time should be devoted to
muscular exercise as to intellectual
exercise, and children should begin
reading and writing only after they
are nine years old. Muscular fatigue
exhibits phenomena identical with
intellectual fatigue. Nerve cells show
on the average every ten seconds tend
ency to rest. 1t is probable that only
part of the brain is active at a time:
the various parts relieve each other
The more mobile any animals extrem-
tiles are the more intelligent other
things being equal, he says.

The following distinction between q
patriot and politician. clipped from
one of the exchanges, contains much
'trutl:-''A patriot loves his country; a
politician only his party. A patriot will
sacrifice self and all else to country; a
politician sacrifices country to self and
party. A politician strives for power; a
patriot strives that his country may be
powerful. The more patriots country
has the stronger it in. Every political II
weakens the power Of the state and the
moral tone OF its citizenship"
