suIDIDE TAKEN TO OLD HOME
Man Found In Missouri River Identine
as Henry Tienksn.

rs Henry Tienksn.
West Point, Neb. THE body OF
Henry Tienken, who committed
suicide by jumping of the Douglas
street bridge into the Missouri river
at Omal was brought to this cit,
by Undertaken Miller OF It's city.
Tienken lived on farm north OF
this city until about two mon hs ago,
when he was arrested on charge OF
ill-treating his wife while under the
influence Of liquor. Failing to fur.
uish bonds for his release TienkeT
was let 90 on condition he would
leave the city and county. His wife
then brought suit for divorce from
him, upon the ground OF extreme
cruelty, the decree being granted
ABOUT two weeks ago. Shortly after
the divorce was granted, Tienker
returned to this city, threatening
to kill his former wife. He was ar.
rested as soon as he stepped from tn.
cars and lodged in Jail. Failing Ia
furnish bonds again, he was again
released and advised to leave this
community, and last Tuesday he de-
parted. Previous to his departure,
the estate was divided, Tienkent
share being 5000 in cash, his wife re.
tanning a homestead In this city.
Several years ago Tienken served a
year In the penitentiary on conviction
OF stealing wheat. He was heavy
drinker and this causd his troubles.
When not intoxicated he was hard
worker and provided well for his
family

Crops with SmnII Fruits.

AS rule 1t Is the better plan to keep
the small fruit plantation free from
other crops, although, If one has fer
tilted the soil reasonably heavy, hoed
crops may be grown between the rows
Of raspberry and blackberry plants the
first season after the plants are set.
Beans. potatoes or peas may be thus
grown to advantage, but, as stated
only when the soil has been fertilizet
so that the hoed crop will not use the
plant food that should go to sustain
the small fruit plants The plan. Sc
common in sections where these two
small fruits are grown with the great
est profit. Of blowing the space between
the rows. throwing a furrow toward
the rows OF plants, Is an excellent one
provided the blowing Is not too deep.
After pruning the plants properly and
doing the blowing suggested, If 8
heavy mulch OF coarse manure is placed
around the plants the yield will be very
much Increased and the berries be
larger.

Dairy Notea,


Cheap salt In butter Is an expensive
economy.
A COW that will not eat abundantly
will not produce literally.
The less water there Is In butter, the
fewer odors 1t will take up.
If you have COW that keeps fat
and sleek on little feed, keep her heller
calf.
Butter Is bitter because of Impure
foods or from holding the cream too
long
Cows will give more milk and of
better quality II fed and MIXED regu-
lnrly.
One important item In building up a
reputation for butter is uniformity In
the quality.
Butter underworked will be striped;
overworked. it will have the appear
ance of lard.
A loss OF appetite and a dropping
head are among the first symptoms of
cow sickness,
With the dairy cow there should al
ways be due proportion of concen-
trated and bulky food.
Do not put the calves on skim milk
too soon Give them the rick milk
for ten days or two weeks.
The heifer calf does not need fatten-
ing food, but plenty Of bone and mus.
.clc-fOrmlng food should be supplied.
A COW is machine for reducing
feed to milk. She consumes the raw
material. eliminates the waste matter
and furnishes finished product. Cows
differ In their capacity to consume food
and In their power to produce milk.

To be profitable dairy COW she must
convert her surplus food into rich milk
rather than fat OF flesh A good dairy
COW rarely gets fat while produclng
