The above report shows wonder

existed two years ago. In the year
1899 there were 10 creameries, 1895

sumed 159, $50 pounds of butter. The
writer firmly believes that Blue Earth
county with her supply of pure water
succulent grasses, soils peculiarly
adapted to growing milk producing
foods, viz: clover, with promising
prospect of successfully poducing
alfalfa, as well as being in the vsrs
heart of the corn producing district Of
the state, is competent to keep twice
as many cows as she now has ant that
with proper breeding and care the
COWS of the county can be made to
produce twice as much milk and but
ter as at the present time.
Legislation having brought the sale
of that infamous fraud, oleomargarine
under control, the large and increasing
emigration coming to our shores from
the old world, the fact that the popu,
lation of the country is increasing al
the rate of about % per cent and that
of COWS only about 4 per cent, are q
few of the reasons why we beliVe that
we are on the very threshold of al
least a decade of the most prosperous
and profitable dairying the country
has ever known. We believe that the
county that has availed itself of it:
advantages in the spast.will be equal
to the present occasion. That this may
be successfully done increase your

NEW SUBSCRIPTION LAWS.
Seven That Are of Especial Interest
to the Public.

Many readers have from time 20
time requested information concern
ing newspaper subscription laws.
Seven have been compiled from decis-
ions of the United States court, and
embody points that bother many
newspaper publishers. The seven are
One. Subcsribres who do not give
express notice to the contrary are con
sidered as wishing to renew their sub
scriptions
Two. If subscribers order the dis
continuance of their periodicals, the
publishers may continue to send them
until ell arrearages are paid.
Three. If subscribers neglect or re-
fuse to take their periodicals from the
postofices to which they are directed,
they are responsible until they have
settled their bills and ordered them
discontinued.
Four. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish.
or, and the papers are sent to the
former address, they are held respon
sible.
Five. The courts have decided thai
refusing to take periodicals from the
office or removing and leaving then
uncalled for, is prima facie evidence
of intentional fraud.
Six. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at thu
end of the time if they do not wish tt
continue taking it, otherwise the pub
Usher is authorized to send 1t and TIT
subscriber is responsible until an ex
press notice, with payment of all ar
rearages, is sent to the publisher.
| Seven. The latest postal laws ar
such that publishers can arrest anyon
for fraud who takes a paper and re
fuses to pay for it. Under the law tn
man who let's his subscription ruI
along for some time unpaid an
] then orders it discontinue
leaves himself liable to arres
; and fine, the same as for theft.
will be seen that many dispute
points are disposed of by these de
, cisions, which are certainly only just
