Like the naming Of the baby" the
selection of an expressive and conven-
lent designation for a new invention or
device is matter Of Importance and
interest. Not long ago it was the auto
mobile that brought out the "plain
everyday man" who wanted a short,
expressive word and the purist who
objected to a hybrid word. That ques-
ton has not been settled yet authorita-
lively. Now the world is seeking
suitable name for Marconi's wireless
telegraphy invention or discovery. The
army signal corps is apparently the
first in the field with suggestions. That
body has officially rejected the phrase
wireless telegraphy" and has adopted
the term "aerography." A person who
sends wireless messages will be an
"aerographer.' and the message itself
will be an ''aerogram." This phrase
ology has the advantage Of being anal
ogous to that employed with reference
to the ordinary method of sending mes
sages by electricity: "Aerography' cor
responds to telegraphy, "aerographer''
to telegrapher, "aerogram' to tele-
gram. There is, however, at least one
objection to this designation. The word
aerography has already a definite
meaning, and it seems hardly right to
impose upon it new one. Aerography
is the science of the air or atmosphere
and is synonymous with aerology. To
take word which has this wide sig
nificance and use it to describe a meth

Our eminently practical commits
sioner OF Indian affairs, Mr.. Jones, has
decided that all Indians, wards of the
government, must get hair cut and a
bath, in the belief that such an innova-
tion would exalt the poor red man to a
higher state of civilization. It was
only few years ago that the Indian
had much the same theory about the
white man, only that he killed us first
and cut our hair off very close AFTER
wards. The Indian was nearer right
than Mr.. Jones, for real good Indian
with his hair cut must first be a dead
Indian.-Ortonville Herald-Star.

moonlight and did not snow. We
were happy that night. On Wednes-
day, the 25th, we struck timber again,
and at half-past FIVE that day we reach
ed Gateway, Canada. We ate Christ
mas supper at a restaurant, and had
chicken. All day Thursday we trav-
eled up hill and down through the
woods, and just before dark we struck
the top of a hill and after we got start
ed down we couldn't get back. The
hill was one mile long. On one side
the mountain and the other a river
over 200 feet below. The road was
crooked and rough. We went another
mile across the river and camped ten
miles from Elko that night. It was a
great trip, 12O miles all up and down
hill. 1t did not freeze any on the trip,
but was wet nearly all the time. Thurs
day night we had another pleasant ex-
perience, if you don't care what you
say. 1t showed the first part of the
night ane rained the last part. We
reached Elko at noon Friday. The
other camps were full, so we had to
take some log camps in town and walk
down to camp No. 2, for our meals. the
distance of one mile. The other camp.
No. l, is two miles west of town. MY
home now is at Elko, about hundred
yards from Elk river, and mountains
all around. The sun strikes US about
ten O'Clock in the morning and goes
out of sight about four in the afternoon.
So you see they are quite large hills.
The Canadian Pacific railway runs
through Elko and the new G. N. rail-
way is going through too. The C. P.
runs around the mountains and the G..
N. will be sixty feet above the c. P.
Smith has contract for eleven miles
OF road here, and it only makes four on
a straight line. We have to lead our
horses down steep bank to the river
for water, as there are no wells here,
everybody using river water. Smith
will have water piped from a spring
up the mountain to his camps, so it
will be nice and handy" "

CATTLE ON so CENT CORN.
A Rock County Farmers Profit in Feeding
Cattle on High-Price Corn.

OouACJ
Cattle on High-Price Corn.
The recent experience of E. T. Thor
sen, Of Denver township, in feeding
steers for the market has exceptional
interest for farmers at this time when
so many of the former cattle feeders
have been induced to go out of the
business by the fear that it would not
be found profitable with corn selling
for SO and even 40 cents bushel.
Some months ago the Herald advised
that cattle feeding be continued de-
spite the high price of corn and sug-
gested that the business would be
found more or equally profitable this
winter than before. Mr.. Thorsen's
experience fully bears out this view.
In the thirty days between the 9Th of
December and the 9Th of January he
fed $50 bushels of corn to Is head of
steers, an average of 10 bushels a
month. This was his first experience
in cattle feeding and he kept a careful
account of feed consumed by the
steers and their increase in weight.
He had been told that an increase in
weight of so pounds to the steer in the
month was regarded as good record,
yet he has gone beyond that. In the
thirty days of the test the steers in
creased in weight 1880 pounds, an
average of ITO pounds. This is an ex-
ceptionally good result. The net gain
to Mr.. Thorsen is that he will get from
his corn so cents bushel, as much as
will the farmer who sells his grain
out, and beside this he will sell his
cattle for ) cents pound instead of 81,
the price they would have brought be-
fore they were fed. More, he has
fatted so head of hogs with little ex-
pense. Mr.. Thorsen says he tried the
experiment of feeding millet but the
result was not satisfactory. A local
buyer estimates that but 20 per cent
as many cattle are being fed in this
county as were fed last year. The loss
to farmers by reason of their failure to
feed cattle will be enormous, but they
will still get small fortunes from their
corn crops.-Rock County Herald.

CHATS I i \
o O WITH FARMERS

N. L. 'Csman, one of the young farm.
ers of Wyanett, who farms on section
seven over in that township, comes to
Princeton to do his trading and to sell
his farm products. Mr.. 'Osman has
been in that section six years. He has
been in this part of the State ever
since he was a boy and while not an
old settler, for he is young yet, has
been here long enough to see the
country made populous and prosperous.
''The farmers over our way,'' says Mr..
Osman, ''are doing nicely as most
farmers are in this section. They
have good land and the best of oppor-
tunities and find good markets for their
crops at prices that net them a very
good profit. Farmers are making
many Improvements in the way of
opening up more land and building
themselves much needed buildings,
and there is scarcely farm but what
shows the evidences of prosperity"
H. E. Gustafson, of Bogus Brook was
down yesterday and called at the
UNION Office for few moments. Mr.
Gustafson is one of the stirring resi-
dents of that township. He lives on Sec
tion q, locating there six years ago.
He took forty for which he paid 81
per acre and says he would not take
81, 500 for the land to-day with it's i'm
provements. There is very little
land in my section that is not taken up
at the present time" .says Mr.. Gustaf-
son, land farmers seem to be getting
along all right. Corn and potatoes
are the principal crops raised, though
considerable small grain is also raised.
Wheat goes twenty bushels on an
average and oats around forty bushels
to the acre. The crop of rye last year
was poor as it was injured by the frost
to a considerable extent" Mr.. Gustaf-
son had lengthy bridge petition with
him to which he is getting signers,
and the petition already looks like
a list of voters at polling place.
The petition is for a bridge across
Rum river in section Is in the town
ship Of Bogus Brook. The point where
the farmers desire the bridge is where
the north road from Princeton run
ming up the west side of the east
branch crosses the river. There is a
great deal of travel on this road and
the farmers think the county commits
sioners should make an appropriation
for bridge at this point. The petition
will be presented to the board at its
March meeting and delegation will
be down from Bogus Brook to help
enthuse the county fathers.

Harrington, WASH, on Thursday, the
10th of Dec, and reached Kalispel on
the same day. The next day the boys
arrived with the horses and the after
noon and part of the next day was
spent in getting the horses shod. We
started on our trip 20 Canada at four
in the afternoon of the 2lst, and drove
ten miles before we struck water, which
we found at about seven o'clock. We
watered and fed our twenty horses,
pitched our tent and got our supper.
I had cover over my wagon, and so I
slept in that, and the boys, Albert
Peters and Charlie Bobo, slept in the
tent. That night it showed about four
inches. We got up at five o'clock and
cared for the horses and got our break
fast and got on the road again at day
light, which came at eight o'clock. We
drove all day in the snow, which was
nice you know. We struck the timber
at about nine o'clock this morning,
Sunday, the 22d. We travelled through
the timber, until Tuesday. Sunday
night it again showed, about six inches
this time, which made it nicer vet.
You may think I am stretching my
story, but am not, for we measured
it.. Monday we travelled all day, max
ing 26 miles and camped in the dark
and the woods, with no water for our
selves or horses. We melted snow and
made coffee, and so went to bed with a
full stomach and at peace with the
world, for my part at least. The boys
were grumbling more or less all of the
time, and what do you think? When
we got up in the morning there was
two inches more of snow on the ground
and everything was nice and white.
We got ready and drove about humid
red rods and found nice little creek.
running at full blast. We watered and
went on in the nice, fresh snow, and
travelled all day pretty fast. We got
out of the timber and away from the
snow that day. This was on tobacco
plains. There was dust in the road;
It seemed funny after so much snow.
When we camped for the night it was

which would not be true, ordinarily, of
the Burbank type.
10 KILL SCAB.-Treat all seed be-
fore cutting to solution of one ounce
corrosive sublimate, to five gallons of
water. One hours soaking is suffic-
lent. A convenient arrangement for
this is to hang a tight barrel on pins
| between two posts: then by means of a
slat cover, the water can be poured out
on one side and the potatoes on the
other. The seed should not be cut un-
til it is needed for planting. For
Ohios, two or three eyes to the piece
should be cut; and for later varieties,
one eye is sufficient. The cut seed
should never be piled up where there
is danger of heating, and exposure to
The drying air must be avoided. If it
is necessary to cut large amount at
one time, smooth the ground in the
shade OF some tree or building, water
the surface thoroughly, and keep the
seed covered.
THE Soil AND How TO PREPARE
lT.-The best soil is a sandy loan, but
almost any rich Minnesota soil will
raise good potatoes. Glover is the
ideal crop to follow with potatoes.
Plow heavy bottom land early and
deep; and if the pillow is followed by a
sub.soiler which stirs the bottom of
the furrow to the depth of from four to
five inches, the mellow bed thus
formed helps to retain the moisture.
Plant in drills 80 inches apart, and IL
to ID inches in the row, using any
planter that will put the seed deeply
into the fresh, moist soil. Harrow the
ground frequently from the time of
blowing until the potatoes are up: af-
ter which use weeder every few days
until the plants are six inches high.
The most of the remaining cultivation
can be done with a twelve tooth Planet
Jr. cultivator; and should be continued
until there is danger of injury to the
spreading tops.
TO DESTROY BUGs.-In killing bugs
I use Leggett blow-gun, which puts
the dry Paris green upon two rows at
a time, at the rate of three ourths of
pound per acre. Usually two applica-
tions to season are sufficient Paris
green being mineral, it is not dis
solved by the use of water, but is sim
ply held in solution. When used dry,
it can be applied even on windy day;
as the wind seems to blow the dust all
through the plant, and wherever it
strikes it remains until it is washed off
by rains. The beginner might mix a
little flour with the poison so that it
will show white as it leaves the gun.
He will thus form an idea of how much
he is applying, until he becomes more
expert My practice is to dig with a
machine, Hoover of Dowden being
preferred, and I sell my potatoes as
early in the fall as possible. Good,
firm, unsprouted seed in good, rich
soil, we'll cultivated, and vines pro.
tected from bugs, is very sure to pro-
duce good crop.
