Patronizc Your Creamery!

The failure of the Minneapolis cold
storage plant for a very large sum has
hit hard among the farmers in various
parts of the country, particularly in the
vicinity of Aberdeen. The local news
papers have for a long time done well
their part toward warning the farmers
against patronizing these cold storage
concerns, and now perhaps the farmers
will hereafter learn to stand by their
local cooperative creameries. Happily
the farmers in this Immediate vicinity,
have been too sensible to be caught by
the tempting offers from these outside
parties, and have stuck Loyalty by their
home institutions, and consequently
have not suffered.

ASSAULTED AND ROBBED.
David HausesOf Bradford Robbed By Footpads Who Leave Him Insen- sible From Injuries Suspect
 Arrested At Newark.

David Hause of Bradford, fur buyer, who came to Newport Monday evening on business with several hundred dollars in his possession, was assaulted at the crossing of the Iron Mountain and Choctaw Tuesday even ing about eight o'clock by two un- known footpads.
 According to Hause' story to re- porter for the INDEPENDENT, he had gone there to meet friend on the north local, thinking that it still ran in here at nights. He had no sooner reached the crossing, than two men came up, asked him if he would not have drink and as he started to walk off, struck him over the head with a piece of iron. He fell unconscious and the villains relieved him of SIS he carried in shot bag in his hip pocket, though they failed to find $1S7 hidden in the watch pocket of his trousers.
 When he became conscious he found himself in pool of blood 20 feet from where he was struck, with fifteen gashes on his head and broken jaw bone His injuries are regarded as very serious.
 Sheriff Randy with Deputies B. w. Reeves and Lockard Randy went to the scene with the bloodhound, but could not get the dog to strike the trail. Nearby points were notified and suspect has been arrested at Newark, who will be brought down for Identification.
 Hause is positive he will know the men, whom he describes, as follows: one, low and heavy set, weighing about ITO pounds, with mustache and wore, light broad brimmed hat and common black suit. The other was about 5 feet inches tall, with three days growth of beard and wore a black suit with narrow brimmed felt hat.

PROBABLE LEGISLATION.

Little Rock, March 3. 3.-Indications
 are that either by committee or body action the general assembly will en- act the following measures:
 Appropriation of 1000 additional for exhibit at worlds fair.
 McCrea's Confederate pension tax levy from three quarters of a mill to one mill and half. Provide for the erection of new
 State capitol at cost of $1, ,oOO, ,OO0. Create office of county school sup erintendent.
 Make office of penitentiary superin- tendent elective by the people. The worlds fair bill has passed the senate and the house has already re- fused to reduce the amount proposed.
 The house has voted in favor of the increased pension levy and passed
 the penitentiary superintendent bill.
 The county superintendent bill has passed the senate and is pending in
 the house. The. joint committee on new State capitol has voted unani-
 mously in favor of new State capitol
 to cost $1,OO0,0oO. It seems reasonably sure that the following measures are doomed; Dispensary bills. Reform school bills. Change in control of penitentiary. Fellow servants' legislation. Salary for members of general as- sembly.
 Some of these bills have not been voted upon in either branch, notably the reform school measure. The sen- ate has placed itself on record against
 a dispensary bill and fellow servants bill The house has manifested no
 disposition to make any change in the control of the penitentiary and to
 placing members of the general as- sembly on salary.

HOME WITNESSES
 AGAINST LEATHERMAN.

Hot Springs, Ark, March 3.-Fifteen prominent citizens of Hot Springs have been served with legal summons to appear before the judiciary comit- tee of the Arkansas legislature at the capitol, on Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock, to testify in the investigation against Judge Leland Leatherman.
 In an interview in the Sunday morn ing edition of the Sentinel Record Judge Leatherman was quoted as say ing that he had been in Little Rock and personally asked the legislature to make an investigation, and, in fact, said he had demanded one.
 Sheriff Williams came out in sig ned statement today, declaring that the very opposite was the case; that Judge Leatherman had tried to keep the legislature from making an in vestigation into the charges, and in lengthy communication denounced the chancellor in no unmeasured terms.

PETITION GOVERNOR
 TO VETO BILL.

Petitions are being circulated in Batesville, Newark, Jacksonport, Rus sell, Bradford and Newport, together with other important shell markets of the White and Black River territory praying Governor Davis to veto the Myers mussel bill, as passed by the legislature.
 The petitions now in circulation, which will be sent to the governor by Saturday, set forth the objections to such legislation, which it is claimed will put an end to the industry. The present mussel bill protects the plan ter and insures cheap labor at the ex- pense of an industry, which has an equal right to fair and equitable laws.
 The petition further recites that the people were lot we'll informed of the provisions of the law at the time of it's passage and that the people of the territory affected by the law, do not favor it's enactment.
 It is expected that the petitions will contain several thousand names, when placed finally before the governor T. F. Umsted is circulating the peti- tion in this city.

EDUCATION THAT FITS FOR
SERVICE.
An Interesting Description of the Coun-
ty Schools of Agriculture and DOmes-
tic Economy in Wisconsin.

In the course of a recent address
before the students of the Agrlcul-
tural College of the University OF
Wisconsin, a successful agricultur-
ist said: "The successful man it not
the lover of the dollar, but the lover
of his business" To a great extent,
the measure of business ucces In
the relations of both cause and eff
feet must be the dollar. To insure
it's wise application during the cru
cial period which determines the ul-
innate failure or triumph of a bust
ness venture, the worker must thor
oughly comprehend not only the
requirements of his w business
but, in addition, his own limita-
tions and the degree of his ability
to meet these requirements. Over
confidence, timidity, or ignorance,
alike invite waste and failure.
No class O. workers are more ham
pered by i'll preparation for their,
life work than are farmers, but as
yet comparatively few are aware
of the existence of limitations other
than lack of money or strength.
People who love their work are
usually enthusiastic in it and may,
unconscious of a particular leaning
toward any phase of work, find when
difficulties are mastered and the
power born of knowledge is ac-
quired hat their entire personal at
titude is changed and that indif-
ference or dislike is changed to
attraction for and enjoyment in
their work.
A scientific knowledge of agri-
culture, had it been possible, could
have never come amiss, but now
when farmer contends with many
of the difficulties that harassed his
ancestors and confronts problems of
whose existence they never could
have dreamed, a specific prepare
ton is as essential to success as air
and food are to life.
To aid him in weather-wisdom the
modern farmer has the thermometer,
the barometer and the reports of
the United States Signal Service;
the constantly expanding mail, tele-
graphic, and telephone service he
may command to keep him in touch
with the markets, and the bulletins
issued by the government, the State
Agricultural Colleges, the United
States Experiment Stations, supple
mented by Institutes and lecture
courses inform him of the latest
discoveries of science and their ap-
plication to his interests. Count
less magazines and newspapers are
published in the interests of the in
dustry, but neither these nor the
foregoing aids will be of avail to
the farmer who is Intellectually un-
fit to comprehend them or who has
not the wit or energy to apply their
principles to his own use.
THE FARMERS EDUCATIONAL NEEDS.
To be successful, then, the farmer
must be sufficiently educated to wise

THE COURSES FOR YOUNG WOMEN
The girls are taught the best
methods of performing all labor re-
lating to the economy, health and
comfort of the home. Every effort
is made to distinguish between
housekeeping and housekeeping.
The application of arithmetic to
home management, cooking and
sewing, millinery, home manage
ment, real and false economy, will
provide for the material side, while
lessons in social usages, in English.
history, civil government, economics
and general literature will lead the
young women to a knowledge of life
that will fit them to be the COM
panions of their husbands and neigh
bors and to wisely direct their chill
dren. The woman who takes this
curse should be able to enter any
society to which her future life may
lead without awkwardnesS or self
consciousness due to the isolation
and entire devotion to mechanical
work.
The work of these and similar
schools will solve the vexed ques-
ton as to the mode of stemming the
tide of migration from country to
city, for when farming a be put
on the basis of other industries as
to advantages, financial and social,
there will be no lack of people eager
to invest in farm property. 1t is
not farm life but farm slavery that
drives the ambitious youth of both
sexes from the farm.
ENROLMENT IN THE SCHOOLS.
At the end of six weeks the Dunn
County School had ffty-seven pupils
enrolled; thirty boys (ayerage age,
1712) and twenty-five girls (averag0
age, 19) from the country, and two
boys from the co~unty-seat, Menomo-
ME.
The Marathon County School at
Wausau had at the same time an
enrolment of sixty-three; sixteen
boys and forty-seven girls. The
same general course of work is given
as in the Menomonie school. ESpecl-
al attention will be given to amman
husbandry since stoqk-raising IS the
