GOOD STATE FOR COWS.

WV. Mcconnell, state dairy and
food commissioner, who recently
Investigated the dairy resources Of
North Dakota, says that owing to
the rich quality of the buffalo grass
there and the absence of flies and
mosquitoes, the dairy industry has
extraordinarily opportunities.
Mr.. Mcconnell visited many
creameries in Morton county, fifty
miles west Of Bismarck, and Sc
cured valuable information from
the neighboring farmers. At one
creamery, which had paid out
to its patrons $85,o00 during the
season, the average production of
butter for each COW a year was 100
pounds as compared with an aver
age of 166 pounds in Minnesota,
and 135 in Iowa. The average COW
produced 4,000pounds of milk hav-
ing 4 per cent butter fat.
One of the patrons of the cream
cry who had thirteen cows. made a
net profit of $678.77 during the
season, an average of $52.21 for
every animal. The thirteen COWS
produced 62,847 pounds of milk
having AIS per cent butter fat,
which made 5,873 pounds of butter
an average of 221 pounds for each
COW. This farmers receipts were as
follows:-From creamery, $539.77;
twelve calves at SIS each. $3.50;
buttermilk and skim milk for pigs,
$72; total, $79l.77. His expenses
were:-Twelve tons of millet, $48;
seven tons of prairie hay, $21; one
ton of bran, $14; pasture $50; total,
$ll3, making a net profit of $67s.77.

Aim for success. Do not select
a calling that is beyond you. It is
better to be a good housekeeper
than a poor teacher; an expert stem
ographer than an inferior lawyer;
an efficient nurse than an inferior
doctor. The more ambitious calling
may(bring much notoriety in the be-
ginning, but failure is a word that
carries with it a noxiousness that is
nerve destroying, and strength of
purpose and sticktuitiveness should
be well determined before one sets
out upon a career.-Palladium.

While in one of the represent

ative grocery houses in Bismarck
the other day we heard {, conver-
sation between a customer and the
merchant. 1t appears that the
merchant had bought quantity Of
potatoes from the customer. who by
the way lived out of town. He
paid Mr.. Farmer the highest price
going for the tubers with the under
standing that it was to be trade
deal. The farmer started in to
trade out his credits, and the first
item on the list called for was 100
pounds of sugar. and he got it:
then he called for -four and several
other articles in this line that the
merchant is obliged to sell on the
smallest possible margin-in fact
they are the same as cash. Then
the farmer got down to the pur-
chase Of some small articles, and
among them were some packages
of breakfast foods, These be was
told would cost him Is cents per
package. The farmer wanted them
for 10 cents, and said he had re-
Gently purchased some for that
price. When he was cornered, he
was forced to admit that they were
from the shelves of a merchant
who was making special sale in
order to clear his store of stale ar
ticles in this line. Mr.. Farmer
did NOT like to admit this and then
called for the balance of his credit
in cash. He got it, and as he went
through the door the merchant
remarked: ''That man received five
cents more than the cash price for
his potatoes, he took only goods
that were the same as cash to me,
and because I would not make a
reduction in other staple articles
demanded the balance in cash. He
is one of those fellows who will
only trade in town when he has
produce to sell, and the balance Of

other staple goods here because he
cannot better himself by sending
away. But he is content
to take the cheap stuff
from the large mail order houses
because he gets it for a fraction
less than the staple articles we sell
and guarantee. Palladium.

William Jennings Bryan is get
ting far enough away from practi-
cal politics to begin to see things
as they are. The smoke Of battle
no longer obscures his view, the
personal equation no longer affects
his perspective. He is now get
ting to a point where he can see
some plain facts that have long
been obvious to some of his closest
sympathizers and friends.
He has confessed to a personal
friend that the free coinage of sill
yer is as dead as the old barn-door
nail; so dead that it will not be
mentioned at the democratic ma
tional convention of 1904. As a
theory Mr.. Bryan is still loyal to it,
but he comedies that the gold
standard is now so firmly lodged
throughout the world that free sill
yer as a practical proposition is no
longer animate. Never was Mr..
Bryan wiser than when he spoke
that opinion.
But wisdom has come to Mr..
Bryan, not in driblets but in foods.
He went on to say to his friend:-
"No other man in the Republican
party equals Roosevelt in the esteem
of the common people, and espec-
tally in the west. None equals
Roosevelt in his power to command
the respect of all nations and to
WELD an influence on the world at
large"
True, every word Off The CON-
mon people are going to give the
president another term in the Office
and in that term, unhampered by
considerations of political expedi-
ency, they expect to see him &C.
complish great things for America

Nothing sold from the farm i'm
poverishes it so little as butter.
Hence it comes that it pays better
to sell butter than other products.

SEEK REPEAL OF LAND ACT.

Evidences are at hand that a
strong effort will be made at the
coming session Of congress to Sc
cure the repeal Of the stone and
timber act, the desert land and
committed homestead laws. The
movement has been formed by in
terests identified with irrigation
associations. Its purpose is said
to be to prevent land exploitation
by corporations, and to encourage
the settlement Of the public domain
by homeseekers.
Already there are indications
that the efforts to be made to re-
peal the timber, stone, desert land
and committed homestead laws will
be vigorously resisted. Senator
Hansbrough of North Dakota,
chairman of the public land COM
mittee of the upper house Of con.
gress, was in conference today with
interior department officials con-
cerning this matter. He found
that the land commissioner favored
repeating some of the land laws in
question, altho that official listened
attentively to suggestions that Sen.
Hansbrough made in this connec-
tion.
AMENDMENT Is FAVORED.
The chairman of the senate pub
lie committee believes that the
timber and stone act and the des-
ert land laws should be amended
in some important particulars, but
condemns any movement having
for it's purpose the repeal or amend
ment of the communication clause of
the homestead law.
Senator Hansbrough said today
that he was preparing and will
present early in the session, a bill
proposing amendments to the des-
ert land law and timber and stone
act. The bill will provide for the
sale to the highest bidder on gov
ernment land in tracts not exceed
ing 800 acres, the timber being
scaled prior to auction, and a thor
ough examination made by officials
to determine quantity and value.
The timber lands are sold for $3.50
an acre under the Hansbrough bill
and no person or corporation can
purchase more than one tract.
As to the desert land law, the
bill will prohibit the assignment
by an entryman of his desert right
prior to making final proof. Under
the present laws an entryman can
assign his right the moment he
makes his filing.
EXPLAINED BY HANSBROUGH.
''If my amendment prevails said
Senator Hansbrough, ''it will have
the effect of making the desert land
entryman practically three year
homesteader, because he will be re-
quired to live on his land and
make improvements for three years
before making proof, and he can
make assignment during that time.
II understand that the interior
department has recently brought
about the Indictment of about 100
men in Montana who were engaged
in attempts to make fraudulent
proofs. This fact demonstrates
that the land laws in the main are
all right, and if the interior depart
ment will continue to enforce them
there will be no just complaint. I
am opposed to disturbing the COM
muted homestead law"

THE MCKINNEY REWARD
Gov. of California Takes Same View
 as Acting Gov. Stoddard.

In refusing to pay the rewards offered in connection with the capture of James Mckinney, the outlaw who was shot a Bakersfield after he had killed w. F.. Tibbet and T. J. Packard. the governor of California has reached the same conclusion as that of Acting Gov ernor StOddaTd, who refused to approve claim to the reward offered by the gov ernor of Arizona for the arrest and conviction of Mckinney for the mur- der of Charles Blakey and Roy Win chester, in Mohave county whom he shot supposing them to be officers on his trail for the commission of still another crime of the same characater.
 It is understood that the reward of $500 offered by Mohave county has been paid by the sheriff to the widows of Tibbet and Packard. all officers and in- dividuals connected in the killing of the outlaw having waived their respective claims in their favor, but the reward offered by the county was for the body of Mckinney and not for arrest and conviction.

FOR TOPEKA RELIEF
There Was a Coed Turnout at Eas,
 Lake Park.

The entertainment given last night al Eastlake parke by Manager Stech- an for the relief of the Topeka flood sufferers was q great success. There had never been a larger attendance and many were undoubtedly kept away by the threatening storm. The programme which had been announced was carried out almost fully though on account of the absence O.. MT. Stro- bridge by reason of illness some of the musical numbers had to be cut out. There were numerous ercores but il had been agreed on account pf the length of the programme tina; they could not be responded to-
 The box office was in charge of MT. Oberfelder of the National Bank Of Arizona. At the close of the perform ance it was impossible to make q statement of the proceeds but what ever there was was net for it had been arranged that there could be nothing for expenses.
 It is safe to say that no town in the country according to its size has done more for the relief of the sufferers.
