PROFIT

The matter of feed is of
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children'2
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are SOIt ana undeVelOped, d
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

oily the corporations would throw the
entire weight Of their Influence to the
other party and with the aid of the
blind party slaves, the hired press
and the purchasable vote win the VIC
tory. Hence, though he may want to
see something done, he is unwilling to
speak out open'y and drifts along,
Micawber-like "waiting for something
to turn up"
The only hope for success seems to
lie In letting the trusts have undis-
puted possession of both the old par
ties and rally the people around a
standard of their own. If the peoples
party could in 1892 draw around it's
standard nearly two million voters, at
time when the danger of monopoly
was so dimly discernible that most
people could not make it out at all,
why should not such a party under
efficient leadership win now when the
danger is understood and the prin-
ciples of the party so generally con-
ceded to be right? The opportunity
for the party is close at hand. Will
there be leader to direct the people
so that they can take advantage Of the
opportunity?

If we need navy equal to Great
Britain's why not standing army
eqaal to Germany's? Then with sew
eral hundred thousand wage earners
removed from there sphere Of useful
ness and trained only in tie art of
cutting the threats Of their fellowmen,
the remainder. Of the wage workers can
work over time to support the soldiers
and sailors and their families.-St
Cloud Times.
Aud the worst of it is that there is
no limit in that game. When we have
caught up to where Germany and
England are now we will find that they
have not been idle during that time
and that we will have to make still
greater efforts to get to the head of
the procession. When one world
power begins to increase its army or
navy the Others feel that they must do
the same. Europe is grooming under
the military burden and there is prob
ably none Of the great powers that
would not be glad to let go Of the
burden if it dared. If we are to enter
into competition with them in that line
the American people will have to
make up their minds to bear eyer in
creasing burdens Of taxation.

Sentiment on the hard coal stocks
has become very bullish based on ex-
pectatiOns that the so cents per ton
added to the price of coal at the mines
last October will be continued indef-
nitely. Should this prove to be the
case the effect would be important on
the stocks of all the anthracite roads
even should the commission decide in
favor of an increase In wages for the
miners. An increase of 10 per cent
in the wages of the men would be ap-
proximately IA cents per ton, while an
increase of 20 per cent in wages, which
is greater than is expected, would be
Is cents per ton, leaving in the one
case net increase in the price of coal
of SO cents, and of q cents, assuming
a 20 per cent advance in wages. AS
all the anthracite coalers produce sew
eral million tons year it will be seen
what will be the effect on the stocks if
the present price Of coal at the mines
is to be continue DIV all Street Jour-
nal.
Thus no matter whether the miners
win Or lose the American people will
pay an increased tribute to the mine
owners and operators. How long will
the people let few men monopolize a
great public necessity and use their
mo aopolistic power in such high
handed manner?

TO Tine,

In the Willmar Gazette of Dec. 18th
inst appears au article headed,
''Thorpe Items.'' This article pro-
ceeced by the gossomer gossip of this
town by help of another prominent
figure is entirely false.
THE! You better attend to your
own affairs more properly and not put
your nose into the business of others
of which you don't know either the
beginning or the end.
Your report errs first where you say
that some Of our landlords are throw
ing an aged couple out in cold wealth
or without hope Of finding lodging.
This couple was in due time, last
summer) notified to vacate the pre-
misses they occupied as trespassers,
but refused to move. When the case
was brought to justice court here, the
evidence produced against defendant
was strong enough for plaintiff for
issuing writ of restitution.
Tine! Now mind you. Before the
writ of re: titution was delivered to
Constable Ole Erikson to serve, the
Justice of said court had already pro-
vided for a lodging in Mr.. Finnegan's
house erected on section 10, in our
town, and the said constable was also
instructed to carefully provide for the
S aid couple, that they should not suf-
fer before he got them in to heated
house, which he did.
Reporter! Where are you now?
The Sc cond item in which the report
errs is where i, says: SAT his insti-
cation similar dirty jobs have been
done before out here" You mean the
case Mr.. Fjnnegan had against George
Nelson year ago, who was also
legally removed by writ of restitution,
which was handed Sheriff Odell to
serve, whom your helper the peda-
gogue may have q chance to see about
it every day in the week.
What did the said justice do before
the writ of restitution was given out
of his hands for further action? He
offered G. Nelson, wife and children,
to move into his house to stay until
spring, which they did not accept, as
they were provided for ii the adjoin,

Publishers Of WILLMAR TRIBUNE:
I enclose one dollar and fifty cents
to pay for your TWICE. A WEEK TRI-
BUNE, I congratu ate you on your

It stands for tenn oerance and righteous
ness. 1t is certainly a great compile
ment to the peoples party that every
reform that has been advocated or
sugges' ed by either of the two old
parties of late was first advoc ated bv
the peoples party. And I am we'll sa-
tisfed that the reform you are ontend-
ing for will be adopted in time. Not
all at once, but one by one. Then and
not until then will there be govern
ment of the people, by the people, and
for the people. At present we have a
sham democracy. When we get the
Initiative and referendum and the i'm.
peratiye mandate we will have genu-
inc democracy.
Please address as before, aud oblige.

J. C. NORbY DEAD.

The death Of Joris G. Norby, OF
Ada, particulars of which is given
elsewhere, is a distinct loss to the re-
form movement of Minnesota. Aside
from his good and genial personal
qualities, he was staunch champion
for better morals and honestly en-
forced laws in our government. He
affiliated with the peoples party al
was a consistent temperance advocate.
He took a leading part in the last
state convention, serving on the COM
mittee on platform. The news of his
sudden death came as severe shock
to his many friends throughout the
state. May the Great Comforter be
near the bereaved ones in their an
guish.

From Texas.

In letter dated at Ell Campo, Texas,
Dec. 9th, 1902, Henry Lingren writes:
[ have been informed that you have
had some disagreeable weather in the
north during the past weeks. Here
we have had fine weather ever since
we came down here, but prior to then,
a great amount of rain had fallen
during the fall months, which had
caused delay in harvest and was detri-
mental to business all over the South.
We have had cooler weather in Dr.
cember than usually is the case and
have had several light frosts. AS a
whole have enjoyed the weather and
climate. Winters in the South are O.
K.
The farmers are getting ready to
pillow for their rice fields. Several
large rice companies are operating.
One of the largest is a Minneapolis
concern, Northern Irrigation Co.
The Elkins Brothers are the heaviest
stock holders. They will seed in
about 5000 acres this fall. Mr..
Quarmbay, schoolmate to Stanard
and Roy Sperry, is one of the mana
gers and hustlers of the company.
Christmas here is observed very
religiously. Saloons are closed on
Sundays but run wide open on Christ
mas day.
A very obnoxious custom prevails
in the South. The report of the fire
crackers and waste of all kinds OF
fireworks making Christmas day more
of a Fourth of July than Christian
holiday. In fact, when the norther-
ners came in here Fourth of July was
hardly observed at all, and especially
was it rare to here the report of the
fire cracker.
The Scandinavian elements and
northern people in general, observe
the Fourth of July, as we'll as Christ
mas day, as they are accustomed to
in the North.
Well, my letter is getting lengthy
and must be brought to close
Wishing you happy New Year and
trusting you have had an enjoyable
Christmas time.
Yours Respectfully,
Fl. A. LINGREN.

California Grapes in Plenty.

The grape harvest in San Diego now
under full Roadway is a remarkably
fine one. The yield is reported as
from 30 to 200 per cent above that of
last year. The large gain of 200 per
cent is given by Mr.. Hess, who has
charge of the vineyard of Mr.. -Hutchin'
son, late of Wichita, Kan, who pur-
chased the McKoon ranch a little over
a year ago. Off of thirty acres he gath
cred 5000 trays, which, at the rate of
twenty pounds to the tray, gives a
yield of 100000 pounds of grapes and
$4,000 pounds Of raisins, very en-
couraging yield.-san Jose (Cal.) Mer-
