POttgieser who made these improve
ments and who for a first term on the
Board of County Commissioners has
made a record equalled by few and
surpassed by none. All promises and
hardly necessary to remind our read
ers that it is for their own interests
to vote for Mic Pottgieser for a second
term to an Office he has so ably filled
for the past two years and where he
has given his time and best endeavors
in your behalf. I
The history of politics in the past
has been that the people who were
benefited forgot. and the people who
had been opposed remembered.
So we advise our readers to not let
history at this time repeat itself, but
remember that they. one and all, have
benefited by the services of Mic Pott-
gieser on the County Board so give
that vote of appreciation SO justly due
to him, thereby encouraging others to
follow his footsteps and insure to ST.
Paul and Ramsey County a govern
nent of which they will be proud.
Political happenings have occurred
during the last few days that indicate
he will secure the largest vote on the
ticket and with your help will be re-
turned for second term with a vote
that will in measure help to repay
him for able and efficient services, al
ready rendered. As to good Roads!
Mr.. Pottgieser has always given his
time and attention to this subject, and
always advocated the building of per-
manent Roads.
A Voter.

than Edward G. Krahmer, the present
County Auditor.
During the past two years many VI
tai improvements have been gradually
introduced in the administration Of
the county auditors Office. The many
vexing problems of carrying into ef-
feet a revised tax law had to be met
md successfully overcome. An en-
tirely new system of accounting had to
be instituted without any Interrupt
ton of the public business. Various
other reforms, rendered desirable or
i'm perative by the increasing demands
of a growing community, had to be
undertaken and intelligently executed.
At the same time the routine work OF
the office had to be conducted to the
satisfaction of the taxpayers. All
these things required in their accom-
plishment a high order of executive
ability, sound judgment, untiring zeal.
exhaustless patience, firmness and un-
questioned integrity. That county
auditor, Edward G.. Krahmer. is abun-
dainty equipped with all these quail
ties is attested by his successful
achievement of the. difficult task thus
briefly outlined.
Mr.. Krahmer will doubtless receive
the enthusiastic and unanimous sup
port of his party, at the primaries.
Sept Goth, for denomination to his
present office is uniform affability
and courtesy at all times have gained
for him an exceptionable wide circle
of friends, and will doubtless insure
his reelection by a largely increased
majority. The voters of st. Paul will
not be slow to seal with their unQuali
fed approval record such as that of
Mr.. Krahmer, the accomplished facts
of which speak. for themselves so ia
yorably.

In Buying a Cow.

Some of our dairymen have quite
elaborate rules they follow when
they go out to buy COW; yet it is
the opinion of the writer that about
all the rules will be found to be at
fault now and then. One writer on
dairy subjects says that in buying a
COW we should beware of the easy
keeper, or, rather, of the COW that
looks easy to keep, as she will take
care of herself before providing for
the milk and cream her owner wants.
This may be a fairly good rule, but
we have certainly seen most excellent
COWS that were easy-keepers. It de-
pends a good deal on the Individual
ity Of the COW. One COW will be sleek,
give a good mess of rich milk and
prove a continuous mixer, while an
other that looks exactly like her will
prove a fair mixer for only a few
months. How shall one tell whether
COW will milk for six months or for
twelve months? After all the indica.
tions are needed, there is still much
uncertainty in regard to the COW. Not
till she has been kept year can we
know what kind of en- animal we have
and even then we may not know, if
the COW be young. AS much as pos
sible the farmers should raise their
own COWS, as only in that case will
they be able to know for a certainty
the real value attaching to them.
The Cook County herald., 1904-05-21
Where to Sell the Milk,

Sometimes dairymen are too anxious
to ship their milk and they send it to
the retail market when it would give
them better return if disposed of in
another way. This results in their
own loss as well as depressing the
milk market. They should remember
that they can take lower price from
a creamery than from a shipping sta
ton, and one Of the chief reasons is
that they may retain the skinned
milk which is valued by many au-
thorities at from one-half to one cent
per quart, as feed for young stock.
1t it cannot be used for this purpose
it has some value as a fertilizer. Fur
thermore the same extreme care does
not have to be exercised to prevent
the growth Of Tactic acid bacteria in
milk for the butter or cheese factory
as in milk for the market. Then, too,
the dairyman may be attracted by a
temporary high price offered for mar
ket milk and he commences to ship,
only to find that in a short time the
price is reduced to an improbable
point. Unless milk shipping is firmly
established in a locality it is a seri-
Gus mistake to close up every other
outlet Tor the milk. But where the
business is we'll established and well
conducted it is generally more profit
able to the dairyman than any other
OF the usual ways of disposing of
mi]k.-R. A. Pearson,
The Cook County herald., 1904-05-21
Water for the Cows.

AS spring is nearly here, the farmer
should be taking into consideration
the supplying of pure water for his
COWS. The dirty brook that runs
through some of the pastures is not
suitable drinking place for the COWS.
1t is always subject to contagion
brought to it by other animals and by
birds. In the dry time of summer
some Of these brooks so nearly run
dry that the water becomes stagnant.
In this water the cows stand some.
times for hours at time. 1t becomes
filthy and a suitable medium for the
development of disease germs and
also of germs that affect the milk
by producing bitter flavors, stringy
consistencies and so forth. Every
pasture should be provided with
troughs in which can be found pure
water at every part Of the summer
season. Where there are brooks, very
frequently the brooks can be diverted
or controlled in a way that will make
them help render this service. A
brook running under the cool ground
through tile pipes is very different
thing from a brook ripping over the
surface and becoming fouled in a
hundred ways. Without doubt the
best water for the COWS in the pasture
Is that pumped from a deep well and
run cool into clean troughs, such al
arc TO be seen on our best-kept farms.

Roots and Tuoers as Horse Feed.

Roots and Tuoers as Horse Feed.
On the question of using roots anc
tubers as part of the food of horses
a government bulletin says:
Carrots, Swedish turnips or ruta
bagas and other roots and tubers
green vegetables, and fruits contain
high percentage of water and small.
amounts of the different classes OF
nutrients. Generally speaking, the
percentage of crude fiber is smaller
than in the green forage crops; but
since the proportion of nutritive ma
terial is small in comparison with the
total bulk, they are ordinarily referred
to as coarse fodder. The use of these
materials as food for horses has been
attempted at different times with
varying success, but it is not followed
to any great extent in this country
though quite common in Europe.
Ten pounds of roots has been sug
gested as the maximum quantity
which may be fed without unduly dis
tending the stomach or being too laxa
tive. IAN addition Of or pounds
of carrots to the daily food ration OF
ordinary working horses" Captain NJ
H. Hayes believes, will almost always
be of benefit; and pounds day will
not be too much for race horses, ever
in the highest state of training. 1t is
safest to give carrots sliced longi
tudinally, so that they may not stick
in the animals gullet and thus choke
him.
In the opinion of a recent German
writer, about II pounds of raw pota
toes per 1000 pounds live weight may
be fed to horses with advantage and
if supplemented with proper feed
there need be no fear of physiological
disturbances. When fed in this
amount the potatoes should be mixed
with hay Or cut straw to insure their
being properly chewed. If small, they
may be fed whole; if large, they
should be sliced. In any case only
ripe, healthy, unsprouted tubers
should be used. 1t is said that horses
should not be watered Immediately
after ration containing potatoes.

Good Cream Necessary.

It was once supposed by a few pro-
gressive creamery men that a first
class buttermaker ought to be able to
make good butter from half rotten
cream. Later on experience taught
US that there is no method by which
we can renovate old, over-ripe cream
or milk and make desirable product
from same. Therefore it is of the
utmost Importance that the milk or
cream furnished the creamery be in a
clean and sweet condition and free
from all foreign odors. In order to
reach this result it is necessary for
the buttermaker to gain some influence
over his patrons so that they will
receive his instructions and feel that
they are benefited.-M. Mortensen.
