principals. Mr.. and Mrs Reed had some
family differences, which led them to
the point where a divorce was demand
ed. In the absence of Judge Lauder,
Judge Kneeshaw of Pembina was asked
to preside at the hearing. After the
matter had been taken up Judge Knee
shaw got the couple together After
some discussion everything was har-
monized and the divorce action aban-
doned There was nothing in the ma
ture of scandal in the case, merely in
compatibility. The professor was for
merly a Baptist minister at Fargo.

Christmas dinner is eaten in the

Many of the customs inaugurated and
established by Queen Victoria in re-
CARDS to the Christmas dinner are re-
ligiously observed by the present SOW
ereign. King Edward will carve the
roast, which when served at the table
will weigh in the neighborhood of 1870
pounds. The different courses will be
marked by the quaint ceremonies in
augurated in the reign of Henry the
Eighth and since followed by every
sovereign on Christmas day. The plum
pudding, which will weigh an even
hundred pounds, will be placed upon
an immense golden platter decorated
with nistletoe and holly and borne into
the dining room on the shoulders OF
four attendants at arms. At the close
of the dinner the toasts will be dranl,
by the company standing TO the mem
Dry Of the late Queen Victoria and the
Prince Consort, and his Majesty will
then toast in order the Prince of Wales,
Great Britain and her colonies and her
loyal subjects.
The presents of the King and Queen
to the servants of the royal household
are on the usual liberal scale, while the
outlay for toys, articles of jewelry,
books, pictures and boxes Of cigars,
for the gentlemen and ladies in wait
ing, the grandchildren, children, irlti-

said to have exceeded $Io,ooo. In adj

condition In which he has placed the

condition In which he has placed the
herd.
A series of model dairy barns have
been built for the breeds competing in
the test. The barns are octagOnal in
form, and are so arranged that the
cows are in the center and wide
promenade permits visitors to pass
around and view the cows as they
stand in their stalls.
The milking and feeding are to be
done in plain view Of the public, and
representatives of the various herds
will at all times have access to all the
barns to see that no sharp practices
are INDUCED in.
The test not only consists in show
ing the amount of butter. milk and
cheese produced. but the cost of pro
duction is taken into consideration.
Every ounce of food given each COW is
weighed and carefully recorded. When
the cows are MIXED. the milk Is con-
veycd to model creamery in the Ag-
ricultural building. where 1t Is tested
and made into butter and cheese and
where all records are carefully kept.
The Jersey cattle participated in a
similar test at Chicago during the Co
lumbar Exposition and carried off
first honors.
Superintendent Graves Is sanguine
over the result Of the present test. He
says that the Jerseys have always
demonstrated their superiority over all
other breeds when placed in competi-
ton, and this time they will show to
better advantage than ever. Not only
is the Jersey milk richer in butter fat
than the milk Of any other breed. says
Mr.. Graves, but 1t can be produced at
smallest Of the standard breeds. and
he asserts that they consume less feed.
They assimilate their food. and it is
converted into milk and butter and is
not used in building up and sustaining
large carcass.
1--WE are going to make all other
breeds take to the woods after this
test" said Mr.. Graves. "A few days
ago I was testing some Of our Jersey
milk. and my hands were all sticky
and greasy from the enormous amount
Of butter fat the milk contained Mr..
Won Heyne. who is in charge Of the
Holsteins, sent over a quantity of his
milk for me to test. OF course. from a
commercial standpoint. there was no
comparison between the milk. but 1t
was a pleasure to test his milk. for
when I got through there was no
grease on my hands. After this
will have a bucket Of Holstein milk
around handy to wash my hands in
after testing our own rich Jersey milk.

the maximum which will not over
/ stock the range. does not provide for
all applicants. the latter are given
preference in the following order:
ta) Persons residing within the re-
serve;
OBJ Persons owning ranches within
the reserve but not residing thereon;
(c) Persons living in the vicinity of
the reserve, owning what may be called
neighboring stock;
I'D Persons living at a distance who
have some claim of equity or priority.
This rule of preference is not IRON
bound, NUT may be modified where
justice demands it; for instance. class
OBJ is not construed so as to permit
large stock owners to crowd out the
cattle of settlers under class (c) by
buying small ranches in the reserce.
for which they have no other use. The
whole intent of the grazing restrictions
is to insure the fullest permanent use
Of the range to those best entitled to it.
Cattle are permitted in practically all
reserves: sheep in those where no
marked damage seems to result there
from. In case the proposed reserves in
Cntral Idaho are created, it will be the
recommendation of this bureau that
sheep grazing will be permitted upon
them to degree which will not per-
manently impair the range. The pro-
posed reserve of about 1885. 900 acres on
the upper timbered portions Of the
Seven Devils and Cuddy ranges during
the last two seasons has carried from
10000 to 10000 sheep. many of which
came from Oregon. Under the regula-
tons. neither sheep nor cattle from
other states will be allowed on the re-
serve and believe that a total Of about
$4,000 will be all that tibet ract can
support safely and large enough to ac-
commodate legitimate Idaho applicants.
The proposed Payette reserve in
Idaho county will include some sheep
range, but very little accessible by cat
tie. 1t does not appear that much dam
age has been done by sheep. so the
number permitted thereon will prob
ably necessitate no reduction OF the
present industry.
