are COWS enough to warrant such an en-
terprise. Dickinson, for instance, is
and has been for the past ten years
buying creamery butter from Hebron,
New Salem and points in Minnesota
and pay good round prices. The New
Salem butter seems to have the great
est demand of any butter manufac-
tured along the line of the Northern
Pacific road; it is even better than the
creamery butter which our merchants
get from Minnesota and sells readily
at from 25 to 35 cents per pound, the
price varying according to the season
of the year. But there is no reason
why Stark county people should not
have creamery plants of their own,
and there is no reason why our people
should not make just as good an ar
ticle of butter as the people of Nor
ton county. Richardton and Taylor
are completing creamery plants which
will be running early in the spring
and there is a field for more. Like
any other enterprise, creameries, in
order to be successful, must be organ
lied and run on business principles.

Indians Have Records.

Fort Yates, N. D., Feb. 9.-The In
dians have pictorial record of the
chief events of each year as far back
as 1775. Smallpox was epidemic
among them in 1871, 1882, 1901 and
1918. Since then there has been no
smallpox among them, though in 1910
they had visitation of cholera. In
1775 Standing Bull discovered the
Black Hills. 1t is curious that their
record does not show the visit of Lewis
and Clarke nor the arrival of the first
steamboat on the upper Missouri
river.
No person, Indian or white, has had
any communication with the outside
world for over month. Quarantine
is very strlct owing to the prevalence
of diphtheria, smallpox and scarlet
fever in Morton county.
James D. Merrill has applied for a
license to trade with the Indians at

capable of bearing a heavy strain and
of not yielding to it until the breaking
point is closely approached; therefore,
for framing material it is unexcelled.
For mud stills and in situations where
it is subject to alterations Of moisture
and dryness, hemlock is found ex-
tremely desirable. Therefore, to a
large part of farm building construc-
ton it is peculiarly well adapted.
In sections of Iowa where it has
been thoroughly tried hemlock is
given the preference for barn contruc"
ton. It is o little late in the season
to talk about corn crib material, and
yet the attention of farmers should be
called to the fact, supported by much
irrefutable evidence, that rats and
mice will not attack hemlock, and SO
cribs built of it are rat and mouse
proof, except as the rodents may find
their way through openings into cribs.
They will not make an openings, how.
ever, and this fact should commend it
for this purpose to the farmers.
Hemlock is still a cheap timber in
the West, and lumber consumers
should be given the advantage Of this
fact, that they may use it wherever it
is possible and economical to do so.-
The Timberman.

Mistakes With Old Orchards.

There is scarcely a farmer in this
country who use any fertilizer for his
orchard, simply because he has al
ways been taught that the old orchard
would take care of itself. And whata
mistake! 1t needs the same care and
attention as the land devoted to other
crops. Why not r~enovate the old
orchard? Out down the worthless
trees. Plow the whole area, SOW to
white clover and timothy, put on
about 200 pounds Of muriate Of pot
ash, and 200 pounds of dissolved bone
per acre. Keep the orchard trimmed
and each year apply chemical fertil-
izers in aboutth proportion per acre:
Nitrate of soda, 100 pounds; ground
bone, 200 pounds; muriate of potash,
800 pounds. By a little systematic
work and study every farmer could
materially increase his profit with q
little extra work, and perhaps a little
outlay of money. If the old orchard
is hard and unproductive, first put it
in fit condition for the growing Of
crops and the trees.
Cover the hardest spots with ma
nure. Get humus in the soils, and
with an application CT potash and
phosphoric acid, one cal feel sure that
O good harvest will result.-C. W.

A Peculiar Fruit

A Swiss pomologist exhibited last
autumn a fruit intermediate between
the apple and pear, which matured on
an espalier apple tree in an orchard in
the Canton Vaud, in 1893. The fruit
bore traces of both species, having the
eye of on apple, while the stem was
inserted in the oblique manner of the
pear. The cross-breeding accidental,
like that of the Loganberry, several
branches of the apple having inter.
crossed with those of the pear. This
case is considered different from sim:
pie hybridization and what is termed,
botanically, "xenia." This consists
of a cross-breeding evident in the seed
and fruit, though usually formulation
of a flower by pollen from a different
species results in a seed resembling
that of the mother plant, while the
plant growing from this seed has the
characteristics Of the male parent

Afghanistan New Woman.

The new woman has penetrated
even to the harem of the Ameer OF
Afghanistan, where she wears male at
tire and does precisely as she pleases.
The Ameer picked her up on his re-
turn journey from the northern part
Of his dominions a good many years
ago. She had been brought before
him by an indignant father and pro
posed husband for punishment. She
would not conform to the usage Of the
country and enter the married state,
though she had then reached the age
when it became incumbent upon her
to do SO. The girl declared she had
run wild all her life, and did not wish
to give up her freedom and be shut
up in a harem. She sought the
Ameer's protection and obtained it.
"All right" he said, ''since you
want to be free you shall be, but free
you must also remain; that is your
punishment. You wish to live like a
man; you shall live like one, and for
your own protection you must wear
mems clothes"
On her arrival at Cabul she was
given the title of older, or chief, and
was made the harem's messenger. She
comes and goes as she pleases, or is
ordered, both by night and day, and
no one, even in slanderous Cabul, has
ever breathed a word against her fair
name.-Ladies' Pictorial.

Hemlock for Farm Buildings.

The farmer of the United States
has gotten beyond the point where he
wants the cheapest thing, simply be-
cause it is cheap, but he, like every
sensible man, wants the most possible
for his money, with due consideration
to O reasonable profit to everyone
legitimately engaged in manufacture
Oh trade. Economy in buying de-
ponds not SO much on the actual price
as upon the peculiar adaptability of
the thing purchased to the purpose
for which it is intended.
The wider acquaintance the lumber
buyer or consumer has with varieties
of woods-with their peculiarities of
strength, durability, workable quail
ties, etc.-the more economically he
will buy. Having such knowledge,
he will find sometimes that the more
costly article is really the cheaper, OF
he may find that the cheap articles
may, for certain uses, be as satisfac-
tory as the mere expensive one with
which he is acquainted.
To the farmer, hemlock, which is a
comparatively new material in the
West, should appeal with special force
because of it's peculiar adaptability for
certain classes of construction COM
bined with cheapness. It is actually
better for some things than white pine,
and yet can be had at a much lower
price. It is better for some things
than yellow pine-better, in fact, fol
corn cribs than any other material.

both strong and stiff that is, it !!

BIighted Celery.

G. A Woolson, of Vermont, writes:
1t is a mistake to suppose that blighted
celery is not worth putting in for win
ter use. For four years the blight
has besieged my garden; rotating the
crop makes but little difference; not
q decent head natures. Plants set
early in Jnne grow we'll for a month
or six weeks perhaps, and then the
blight appears; active growth ceeses,
then it stands in spite of fertilizers or
irrigation.
But about the first of October I
trim up the plants, leaving only the
the heart leaves. A shallow trench in
the cellar is well watered and the
roots, with as much soil as can be con-
yeniently left on, are placed in the
trench; more water is given and sand
or other light and dry soil is worked
carefully in and about the plants,
leaving only the tips exposed. Finer
celery I have never had than such
roots furnished in January and Feb
ruary. If the long white brittle
stalks are cut off squarely-not too
close-a second crop has been ready
by April. This is lighter, of course,
than the other, but a dainty luxury
for the season. At the present writ
ing-November ga marked growth
is already noticeable in plants not
three weeks in the cellar.

CHINESE CHILDREN.
Bright and Interesting Little Specimens
of Oriental Humanity.

OF OT16nfa1 hu1nan1Cys
The Chinese children are things Of
beauty and joys forever. They ore as
pretty and bright as they can be, and
run scurrying away from you where
ever you may chance to walk IN the
quarter. The place literally swarms
with them, and yet the Chinese IRE
too provident to have very large fami-
lies. A merchant with three wives
will probably net have over four chill.
dren. 1t is said tRRat the largestfanily
in Chinatown is that of a poo Chinese
clergyman. He is a Presbyterian
missionary and has roesasaS~e-ap chill
dren. This is more Presbyterian than
Chinese. The parents are very fond
of their children, especially the men.
The women do not seem to care SO
much, but the men fondle the little
ones all day, and love to carry them
about in their arms. You cannot
please a Chinese father more than to
say pleasant things about his child.
The babies are undeniably interesting.
The little ones have a peppery smell
much pleasanter to the nostrils than
sour-smelling American children. The
little boys assume the dignity Of cue-
strings when they are about five. Red
is the prevailing color for the cues OF
the children of both sexes. It means
simply youth, and has no sinister sig
nificance, as so many Americans think.
I once asked q Chinese father what
the fur ears on the baby's head signi-
fed. ''It's the fashion," he explained
loftily, "all same American ladies wear
birds on their heads" The Chinese
are very fond of saying, when re-
preached for the cruelty of foot-bind-
ing, that the practice is not nearly as
injurious as squeezing the waist. In
telligent and educated Chinese are not
at ell bad at repartee.
OF course, the little children have
any number of bangles, beads and
bracelets by way Of decorations. It
is not unusual to see bangles on their
little bare ankles as they run through
the streets. Their clothes are very
gay, though there seems to be a grow
ing and unfortunate tendency to dress
the little mes in American fashion.
This is the more to be regretted as,
though Chinese dress is becoming to
Americans, the converse is by no
means true. The close-ftting Ameri-
can garments show off all the defects
of the figure and seem to rob the
Chinese of oil their native grace,
which is considerable. Many Of the
children go to American or Mission
schools, and parents of heather faith
allow their children to go to the
white devils" missionary schools be-
cause of the advantages they have In
learning English. After school hours
the children play on the sidewalks.
They play queer little games with
sticks and stones. The most common
materials are playthings for O Chinese
baby. One of their favorites requires
q worm and bowl, and the screams
that greet the worms attempt to es-
caspe are fraught with merriment and
terror. The little girls are usually
staggering under the weight of an in
ordinately fat baby brother, but they
do not seem to mind. They are ex-
tremely obedient children and seem
brighter than little Americans Of the
same age.-National Magazine.
