AN INSTRUCTION CAMP.
ROOM AT GREATER SMELLING
Colonel Hays Formally Indorses the
Bill Providing for the
Enlargement.

Colonel e. M. Hayes, in temporary COM
mand of the department of the Dakotas.
has formally Endorsed the measure now
before congress, calling for the purchase
of 1900 acres of land to be added to the
Fort Smelling reservation. The bill was
sent to him by Secretary Root for his
approval, and in his reply the colonel
says:
The location of Fort Smelling the physical
features Of the ground, transportation facili-
ties, and the abundance of supplies for men
and animals. render that location admirably
adapted to the requirements of post for con-
centration Of considerable bodies of troops.
either for instruction or for other service.
In speaking of the proposed enlarge
ment, Colonel Hayes said:
Should the bill be passed. and the military
reservation increased to more than 5000 acres,
there would be room fof establishing at SHELL
ing one of the great obstruction camps re-
Gently recommended Such facilities would
be useful to the army here where the loca-
tion is so central and the climate so whole
some.
But the benefit would be even greater for
the national guardsmen of the northwest.
They could be trained practicaly'in all three
arms Of the service.
If the enlargement is made, I imagine that
regiment or more of infantry, couple of
batteries of artillery, and at least one squad
ron of cavalry will be assembled permanently
at Fort Smelling.
Under the terms of the bill the land is
not to cost more than twice it's assessed
valuation, and may be located on either
or both banks of the Mississippi or Min
nesota rivers, or partially on nearby
islands.

INCOME OF $50,000,O00
FROM MINNEsOTA,s d.
DIARIES
The Prediction of Professor Hacker
of the State Agricultural
College.

Professor T. l.. Hacker of the state
agricultural college predicts great things
for the dairying industry of Minnesota.
1t will produce an income of $50 900, 900
annually before long, he says. He puts
his prediction as follows:
The dairy industry in the northwest is still
in its infancy, and we confidently look for
has been made in the past. The time is NOT
distant when Minnesota alone will derive an
annual income from this one industry of $780,
100000. We will invade not only the eastern
but the foreign markets. We can produce
better and cheaper butter than can Denmark
or any other country, for they all must look
to America, and especially. to the northwest,
for their feed stuffs, and whenever we can
convince the western grain grower that it is
to his advantage to convert his surplus feed
into butter ship the more concentrated prod :
uct, realize greater income and at the same
time improve the fertility of his farm, the
change will surely be made.
The grand total of our dairy products, ac-
oording to the best estimates, is $4,000, 900.
This is most gratifying when it is remem-
bered that the industry in Minnesota is new,
for in 1890 our creameries and cheese factories
produced only $2,95S,476. 80
What our standard was only two decades
ago is shown in an address by Colonel King
in st. Paul.
with our climate, grasses and water, there
is no reason why Minnesota should not rank
among the very first in her dairy product,
and yet it is not too much to say that the
cheese and butter we now send to the markets
of the country bring reproach and disgrace
upon the state. And this dishonor comes not
from any necessity growing out Of our nat
ural conditions, but from the objectionable
stupidity and neglected indifference of those
in whose hands this great industry has fallen.
From the earliest settlement Of our state
there has been no time when grade Of but
ter rivaling in quality the product Of Jeffer-
son and Orange counties, New York, could not
be made here. There is no reason why the
dairymen Of Minnesota should not go into
the markets of the great eastern cities and
successfully compete with the best products
made.
Our butter is now without rival in the
very markets to which he referred, and the
cost of transportation is not more, and in
some instances less, than it is from points
within the state of New York, Pennsylvania
ami Massachusetts,

NEW ERA FOR SCHOOLS.
ADAM BEDE SAYS IT'S NEAR
Good Roads Will Contribute to
Country School Consultations
Chance for Carnegie.

]. Adam Bede is arranging with State
Superintendent Olsen to assist at a big
citizens meeting In Pine City, to discuss
the question of school consolidation. Mr..
Bede says:
Statistics show that there are large num-
bers of cot ntry schools with an attendance
of less than twenty and in many cases not
more than ten, and by throwing several of
these into one central school, and delivering
the children in band wagons graded schools
are established, with better teachers AMI
longer sessions, at less cost to the taxpayer.
There are some obstacles to be overcome,
chiefly prejudice in favor of the local school,
and the bad roads which prevail at certain
seasons of the year. But. In spite Of this,
the movement has proved successful In other
states, and will shortly prevail in Minnesota
One of the chief reasons for the tendency
of population towards the cities is the need
of educational advantages to boys and girls
reared upon the farm. This want cab be
supplied by the graded central school, and it
will bring much happiness to the rural pop
ulation of our state; it will make our farm
ers contented class, as they will not feel the
necessity of selling the old home and moving
to town to educate the boys and girls, and it
will enhance the value of their lands. A new
era is about to dawn and we predict that
within quarter century every boy and girl
born and reared upon a farm in Minnesota
will be given a high school education with
out leaving the parental roof.
1t would greatly aid this cause if Andrew
Carnegie would spend his fortune in building
country roads, which we need, instead of
wasting it on libraries in the cities, whero
people can afford to buy their own books. But
with our present school fund and the vast
additions to be made. to 1t in the future from
the mineral lands belonging to the state, we
shall not need aid from outside sources, and
Minnesota will soon give to the world an IL
lustration of government Of the people, by
the people and for the people, in which every
child shall be educated to good citizenship
and all disadvantages of country life removed.

HOLMES HERE TOMORROW
Will Give His Lecture at Plymouth
In the Evening. 8.

Persons who were sorry that Burton
Holmes did not deliver longer series Of
lectures in Minneapolis in the winter
will find some recompense for their disap-
pointment then in his return visit to-
morrow night to deliver his superb lee
ture on Moscow. 1t is by far the best
of his recent lectures. 1t is fascinating
blending of that fine descriptive style
with which Mr.. Holmes is blessed, scores
of handsome, colored, lantern pictures
and many motion pictures. Altogether the
lecture promises to give it's auditors a
large measure of the deep impression
Moscow made upon Mr.. Holmes. Sufi-
cient attraction to make the lecture go
could be found alone in that part of it
which is devoted to Count Tolstoy, who
granted Mr.. Holmes most interesting
interview last summer.
= The lecture will be delivered in Plym-
cuth church, and seats may be obtained
at the Metropolitan Music store.

ADVANCE IN FLOUR
Follows Price of Wheat-Millstuffs
Generally Take Jump.

Flour, millstuffs and ground feed all ad-
vanced in price to-day. Flour prices have
gone UP about rs cents a barrel in the
past two days. Bran, shorts and flour
middlings have advanced about 81 a ton,
and like advance has been made on all
grades Of feed. The millers say the ad-
vance in flour is due to the higher price
on wheat and to sudden increase in buy
ing within the past few days. In mill
stuffs it is said the jump in prices is due
principally to demand from the south
west, where dry weather makes the farm
ers turn to the mills for feed for stock.
The men who make ground feed put up
their prices this morning, owing to the
high prices on corn and oats.

A REAL DAIRY ATMOSPHERE
''Dniry Farm" Patrons at the Bijou
Will Drink Milk.

One handicap that has always con-
fronted playwrights of the realistic school
is the unfortunate waits between acts.
During those unavoidabl intermissions
the atmosphere of a play is frequently
lost, and on the rise Of the curtain the ac-
tors have to begin all ever again to re-
create the illusion.
However, the management of THE
Dairy Farm which comes to the Bijou
next week. has hit upon a plan that is ex-
pectod to do much to obviate this diff
Guilty. During the intermssions on Sun
day night fresh milk will be served to all
persons in the audience who may wish It,
And, as the playgoer drinks his milk he
can close his eyes, lean back in his seat
and, with little difficulty, imagine that he
is indeed again back en- the dairy farm,
sight of which has just been cut off by the
descending curtain. local cremery
will furnish the milk to be served and care
will be taken to see that is is kept at the
proper temperature.

SCIENTIFIC BUTTERMAKING
Comm ssioner Mcconnell FavOrs the
South Dakota Plan.


South Dakota's plan of licensing dairy
men and requiring creamery operators to
pass state examination is approved by
Dairy Commissioner Mcconnell of Minne-
sofa. He said yesterday:
- Cooperative creamerieE, hiring inexperi-s
enced buttermakers, is one of the greatest
existing evils which have crept into the dairy
system, and the cause of more dissatisfaction
and ruination than all others combined. 1t
is one of the encouraging features Of the
creamery trust. One years experience, per-
haps, was enough five or ten years ago, but
is altogether too short now, as man can
only learn few of the fundamental prin-
ciples Of the business in one year, and the
second should be devoted to practice and
study then turn at a dairy school to learn
something Of the science. After such ,expe-
rience and training, man may he in a posi-
ton to take charge Of a creamery, and If he
is an adept scholar, ambitious, industrious
and willing to work and learn he may make
a good man with a few yaars experience and
study.

Miss Hattie Palmer of Saginaw, Mich.
who left Chicago recently ostensibly for
St. Paul. Unless she purchased the tick
ct and checked her baggage to St. Paul
as blind and then left for another city,
the police think they ought to be able to
find her. She was to be married next
Sunday to E. A. Goodwin, a Mormon elder
of Lamont, Iowa. Goodwin went to
Saginaw to join his intended bride, but
found that she had left for Chicago. He
and a detective of the Chicago force last
night learned that she had sent her bag
