DO NOT FoRGET THE SALT
Milk Yield Is Decreased If the Cows
Are Kept Without the Min
eral They Crave.

II is a very easy matter to forget
10 salt the COWS, as every person thai
nas nao the care of dairy COWS knows.
Many farmer realizes the need of
tne ANIMALS for salt and Intends IN
give them salt at regular intervals.
frequently he does not awake to the
TACT that the COWS are not getting
enough salt till he notices a fiat fresh
taste IN the milk, and he at once CON-
nects this with the absence of salt
inns 1atness is supposed to be tha
only detriment to the non-saltinp of
the COWS. But tests made at differen+
times show that the volume Of tho
milk is decreased by this withholding
OF the mineral that every animal
Graves. At the Mississippi Experi-
ment station the experiment was
tried OF keeping cows without salt
for number of weeks. Three cows
were deprived of salt for four weeks
Inc hrst two weeks the milk was
not weighed, as it was likely that the
COWS would not at first notice the loss
OF the salt by decreasing their milk
During the two last weeks of the
period, however, the milk was
weighed and was found to be 454
pounds for the period. The salt was
given to them again and the milk
weighed for the ensuing two weeks
When it was found to amount to 564
pounds. This was a gain of ITO
pounds of milk due to the sailing
Doubtless the best way to give the
salt is to place large Jumps of rock
salt where the animals can lick them
at leisure. There will then be no
danger OF the animals eating too much
at any one time or of poultry getting
at 1t and eating enough to kill them.
The love of all animals for salt is
shown by the habit they have of fire.
quentlng places where salt is to be
found. In the early history of the
country, when hunting was a business
as much as any other, the hunters
used to lie in wait in the places where
salt streams flowed from the noun
tains and left crystal deposits on the
rocks, for the hunters knew that such
places We're frequented by animals
from h far and near for the purpose Of
licking the salty rocks. The processes
OF digestion require salts to assist
them. They can be carried on without
salt, but always at q disadyantage.-

will retire on account of i'll health
about Jan. I. This is one of Senator
Nelson's personal appointments, and
he is said to have offered the position
to Martin. Whether or not salary
went with it is not known, but it is
known that few|days ago Martin re-
fused an offer of $4,000 salary for the
six weeks campaign. He also refused
the position of private secretary to
Dunn as governor: Charles s. Mitchell
of Alexandria is slated for the appoint
ment, but he offered to give way to
Martin. This offer Martin refused, for
he has no love for Dunn personally.
They have been at swords points all
their political lives and there was the
bitterest feeling between them when
they officed across the hall from each
other at the capitol. Dunn has given
it out that he made no promises to
Martin, and this tallies with the current
report. The position of collector pays
in salary and fees $1,000 to $4,000 a
year. 1t would be sure thing whether
Dunn was elected or defeated.
Martin has personal following in
Ramsey county, where he has done
much organizing for the past two years,
and it is there that he will cut the
most figure. He will carry some of this
following with him, but it is follow
ing of "practical politicians" and out
side of this little circle Martins per-
-sonal influence will not count for many
votes. His value to the committee in
the main is his skill as an organizer
and his wonderful energy.
1t is worth noting that Martin goes
on the state committee as Ramsey
representative. He takes the place
vacated by Kay Todd of St. Paul, who
resigned. This means that Martin has
left St. Cloud, and is to be credited to
st. Paul. w. E. Verify, the deposed
secretary, is still member of the COM
mittee.

All Right Again.

Opal, Wyo., May 16.-After suffering
terribly fol four or five years Mr.. A. j.
Kohuer of this place has been COM
pletely restored to good health. His
case and its cure is another proof OF
the wonderful work Dodd's' Kidney
Pills can do. Mr.. Kohner says:
'For four or five years have been g
sufferer with Kidney trouble and a
pain over my Kidneys. 1 thought ]
would give Dodd's Kidney Pills trial
and am glad 1 did so, for they have
done me good work and feel all right
again."
Many cases are being reported every
week in which Dodd's Kidney Pills
have effected cures of the most serious
cases.
These strong testimonies from earn
est men and women are splendid trib-
utes to the curative properties OF
Dodd's Kidney Pills and judging by
these letters. there is no case of Kidney
trouble or backache that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills will not cure promptly and
permanently.

How to Sleep.

1t is not uncommon to hear people
say 81 was too tired to slecp"-but it
Is not generally known how great a
help it is at such times not to try to
sleep, but to go to work deliberately to
get rested in preparation for it. In
nine cases out of ten it is the unwill-
ingness to lie awake that keeps us
awake. We toss and turn and wish we
could sleep. We fret, and fume, and
worry, because we do not sleep. We
think of all we have to do on the fol-
lowing day and are oppressed with
the thought that we cannot do it if we
do not sleep. First, we try one expert
ment to see if it will not make US
sleep, and when it fails, we try another
and perhaps another. In each expert
ment we are watching to see if it will
work. There are many things to do,
any one of which might help US to
sleep, but the watching to see If they
will work keeps us awake.
When we are kept awake from our
fatigue, the first thing to do is to say
over and over to ourselves that we do
not care whether we sleep or not, in
order to Undue ourselves with a
healthy Indifference about it. 1t will
help toward gaining this wholesome in
difference to say II am too tired to
sleep, and therefore, the first thing for
me to do is to get rested in order to
prepare for sleep. When my brain is
well rested, it will go to sleep; it cannot
help it. When it is well rested, it will
sleep just as naturally as my lungs
breathe. or as my heart beats."-Les-
lies Monthly.
