those consecrated grounds. A man to whose memory it had been erected did not lie under its shining white shaft. He was buried in a far-famed field of the dead where the nations most honored sons lay at rest.
 They looked at the marble shaft with it's head lifted high against the golden light. Tire name it bore was of one who belonged to the world and to history. He seemed far away in some lofty region from which he sent no in- dividual appeal to their hearts. They could talk In the shadow of that pile of marble, Besides the graves of the village dead whereon the glory of the world never shone they must stand in awed and loving silence.
 Alan Goldwin looked from the cold white marble to the girl at his side.
 My quest among the graves has 8 sad object" he said. My father Is buried somewhere, I know not where in an unknown grave. He used to live here when he was a youth. He went to a southern state and when the war began he enlisted in Lees army"
 'He was killed in battle?''
 No, not in battle. He lies in what the world might call dishonored grave. but 1t is not dishonored, for 1t covers as noble a heart as ever beat. He was shot by order of his command ing officer. but know he was never guilty of any wrong"
 She looked up at him with eyes shin- ing with tears.
 T am sure of that" she anid.

AZ Bro. Coveii Sees It.

The publishers OF the Willmar
Tribune are busy these days working
upon the History ofKandiyohi County,
which they expect to have ready by
the close of the year. This enterprise
was started some time ago and it was
expected that it would be finished be-
fore this. Bui the work will be much
more elaborate than was at first con-
template d, and for this reason it takes
lor ger time to complete it. Every
thing of interest that has entered into
the history of the county from it's
early beginnings down to the present
time will be treated exhaustively. 1t
is work which should be of great
interest to the residents of the ,uuty
and to those who have been residents
but who have moved away. To pro.
duce this work necessarily requires
the outlay of large sum of money,
and an immense amount of hard work
and the cooperation of the residents
of the county is due it to make it q
success.-Atwater Republican Press

Hence the necessity Of thorough disin-
lection after cases of contagious dis.
eases have appeared. The paper
should be taken from the walls and
whatever in the patients room cannot
be boiled or thoroughly disinfected
should be burned.
At the present time we hear great
deal about hereditary consumption.
When we see one member of o family
after another taken of by this dread
disease, we hear the remark "con-
sumption must be in the family"
''They must have inherited it from
their father or mother" Very often
instead of being in the family it is in
the house and has never been removed
since the death of the last patient. If
we would look into this subject more
carefully and profit by its teaching, I
think we would hear less of "heredi-
tary consumption.
Besides thehurtful bacteria, there are
beneficient ones, that are bacteria that
cause helpful fernents, that ripen
cheese and make good flayors in cream
and butter; there are bacteria that live
in soils and by their magic make des-
ert soils to bloom and all vegetable
lie to rejoice. The secret of fertility
or fruitfulness in soils is inherent in
certain forms of bacterial life. Judge
then, whether the study of these little
things in nature may not be produc-
tive of the most momentous results.

members of the organization will re-

Texas has been making great gains
in local Prohibition fights under the
county option law of that state. The
court now decides that the law of 1901
which forbids shipping liquors into
local option territory Is unconstitu
tional. This practically nulli6es the
law so far as its effect upon clubs and
individuals are concerned, aud opens
up the way for the blind pigger.

esby Beef In Minnesota.
Address by r. 6. RAYNOl
Address by JOSEPH E. WING

Prices of fat cattle have always
gone down, down, until beef men have
been in despair. But as often, and
as surely they have risen again.
There has been prof. in producing
beef to the man who has steadily
stayed in the business. There will be
profit in the future. The future is
certain to see relatively higher prices
than have teen obtained in the past.
Populations have increased nightly.
Production in much less ratio. When
cattle are low one may begin to pro-
duce beef with greater expectation OF
profit than were he to begin When
prices are high.
There are on Minnesota farms many
COWS. These COWS are of many sorts
and conditions. Most of them are
MIXED for their cream. The calves
are then usually raised on tho farms.
Let us see under wha: conditions the
greater profits can be had from the. 9
calves.
Skinned milk must be their source
of subsiste nee. To produce good
calves with skinned milk it should be
separated with the hand separator
right On the farm, and fed again to
the calves as soon a. possible. There
has been taken from the milk now
only the butter fat. 1t should be fed
warm to the calves. They should
each one have its portion fed sepa
rstely, so that no robbing of the
strong by the weak, no gorging or
starvation should take place. The
better way is to provide small stanch-
ions in which the calves will be lock-
ed at feeding time. A row of these
stanchions may be all locked or un.
locked a. one movement of the lever.
One should use care in feeding these
calves not to overfeed at first. Grad
ually the ration may be increased un.
til they are drinking about all the
milk that their mothers are producing.
Judgment must be used to see that
over feed Or irregular feeding does
not produce scours. Calves must not
be In damp dark Easements, but in
dry. sunny places, or diseased sure to
follow. sz- IT,. Is. -. , /7..>s <
To replace the fat taken from the
milk take whole fax seed, put In

What LIQUOR WILL DO
Farmer c'szed by Drink Attempts "a
Destroy Al Of His Property
hv Fire.


A wild report came up from the
fastEesses along the raging Yellow
Bank, to the effect that Herman
Schomberg, one of the residents of
that peaceful neighborhood, went to
town one day last week, and having
partaken too freely OF the bowl that
does both cheer and iuebriate, re.
turned home with the fixed and I'M.
alterable determination of wiping his
farmstead of the face of the earth.
He drove his wife into a room, locked
the door, and then distributed GOALS
from the stove where they would do
the most good. After he had succeed
ed in getting the blaze started At the
house he transferred the seat OF war to
the barn yard. Driving all the stock
into the stable he fastened the doors
and applied the torch, and then forti.
fed himself with gun and plenty of
ammunition, in the hen house.
About this time several neighbors,
hastily summoned by Mrs Schom
berg, who had made her escape by the
window route, arrived on the scene.
They were greeted with volley from
the intrenchments, and retired in good
order to await reinforcements. After
some delay Butcher appeared in the
person of August Middelstadt, city
marshal at Bellipgham, who at once
led the allied forces in q successful
attack upon schomberg's position
In the mixup Schomberg was shot
through the wrist and captured, and
Middlestadt was also shot in the
body. Fortunately the portion of his
anatomy selected as target wa
protected by thick pocket book, and
the bullet was extracted from it with.
out much difficulty.
Schomberg was placed under arrest
and taken to Bellingham.-Big Stone
