TREAT DAIRY HELP FAIRLY.
Employers Willing to Do the Square
Thing Can Always Get Re-
liable Assistants.

In an address to Missouri dairymen,
Robert Pethbridge said: Successful
dairying cannot be carried on where
D is short. or where the hired help
Is lacking. In my travels l find this
to be a great complaint among dairy
men that they cannot get help, but |
am sure it is mostly their own fault.
for | can name many successful dairy
men who have no difficulty in that line.
eau their help is treated in O
proper and business-like manner, such
as fair wages, regular hours and lib
eral treatment. He must compare the
dairy help with the city laborer in
wages; they will vary in different
parts of the country in hours of la
Dor; the city man has his ten hours
daily and pay for overtime, whereas
the country man as a rule works
longer hours and no pay for overtime.
This is one of the great objections of
have known by experience that many
a day | have been at work IA hours
in the field with a team and previous
TO that did the milking and feeding
of ten cows and four horses. and then
at night have to do the same thing
again, when l ought to have been
studying or taking some recreation TO
improve my mind and body, to render
it better fit for the duties of the NOR
row. Liberal treatment will do more
TO bring employer and employed to-
gether, than wages. The giving OF a
cottage with a garden patch and al
lowing them to keep a cow for the use
of the children in addition to the
weekly wage gives the country en-
ployer the advantage over the city and
more work a be accomplished and
your man can be relied on, which Is
very important. In the hiring of la
Dor, there are many good dairy hands
coming from England, Ireland, Ger
many and Scandinavian countries, who
are glad to get a job when they arrive
in New York, and they naturally seek
an employment agency, and those who
wish to hire this class can make ap-
plication, and they will not be disap-
pointed if they are willing to do the
fair thing.

Excitement Means Loss.

The more one studies the nervous
system of the cow the more does one
become impressed with the serious
danger and loss which result from ex-
citing it. The great difference in both
yield and test of the milk which is OBJ
tanned after the COWS have been fright
ened or excited or hurried has been
repeatedly proved and may be easily
demonstrated by anyone having &C
cess to scales and a Babcock tester.
The difference in the test for butter
fat. is even more noticeable than the
difference in the weight of the milk;
and the annual loss from the mistreat-
ment of a whole herd of cows can be
better imagined than described

IN AN OLD TRUNK.
Baby Finds a Bottle Of Carbolic Acid
and Drinks It.

While the mother was unpa.king an
old trunk a little Is months old baby
got hold Of a bottle of carbolic acid
while playing on the floor and his stom-
ach was SO badly burned it was feared
he would not live for he could not eat
ordinary foods. The mother says in
telling Of the case:
1T was all two doctors could do to
save him as it burnt his throat and
stomach SO bad that for two months
after he took the poison nothing would
lay on his stomach. Finally / took him
into the country and tried new milk
and that was no better for him. His
Grandma finally suggested Grape-Nuts,
and / am thankful l adopted the food
for he commenced to get better right
away and would not eat anything else.
He commenced to get f1eshy and his
cheeks like red roses and now he is en-
tirely well.
II took him to Matamoras on a visit
and every place we went to stay to eat
he called for Grape-Nuts and l would
have to explain how he came to call for
It as 1t was his main food.
'The names of the physicians who at
tended the baby are DR.. Eddy of this
town and DR.. Geo. Gale of Newport, O.,
and anyone can write to me or to them
and learn what Grape-Nuts food will do
for children and grown-ups too" Name

Fnsilaee Milk and Butter.

Experts declare hat milk made from
ensilage has all the qualities of milk
and butter made out of green grass.
This is saying much in favor of en-
silage as a feed. One butter~buyer de-
scribes the flavor resulting from the
feeding of good ensilage as a fine
grassy flavor such as is desired by the
users of fancy butter. We hope that
our experimenters will give us more
an this subject, as the matter of good
and cheap feed for the dairy COW and
the cow Of the farmer is one of great
Importance at this time.-Farmers'

More steel is used In the manufacture
of pens than in all the sword and gun

Five hundred and fifty thousand dol

The rise of the Easter lily is one of
the most sensational features of green
house Horticulture in America during the
last quarter of a century. American
florists raise about 5000, 900 Easter lilies
a year. Assuming that only half of these
plants are sold; that each bears only
two flowers "a good plant should have
six to eight and that the public pays
so cents a bud. it would seem that the
American people spend at least $780,
900 for Easter lilies every year.
The United States now leads the world

the field of art, is admirably shown in
a group Of specimens from the Central
high school now collected in the office
of the superintendent Of schools to be
sent to the st. Louis exposition.
This collection, which will form only
a portion Of the public school exhibit
from this city, comprises eight pieces,
each of which so closely approaches
perfection in its particular line of
handiwork as to leave no flaw visible
to any but the most adept critic
A vast amount of painstaking and
sklllful effort, as we'll as artistic con-
ceptton, is represented In q settee of
burned wood ornamented with a coat
of-arms. The design of decoration is
intricate and is heightened by being
wrought out in color.
The possibilities of the commoner
metals in skilled hands, with q creative
mind to guide them, are shown in a
lamp shade of copper and brass in
Moorish design.
In Moorish effect also is a carved
wooden jewel casket of large size. 1t
is boldly carved in heavy relief and
inlaid with deep-cOlored jewels of the
rougher kinds; and the carven parts
are outlined in metallic paints.
A fire screen of striking beauty is
wrought from bronze and leather. The
frame of metal is in itself an artistic
piece of work, and within this frame
is a panel of stamped and cOlored
leather.

Many Resolutions Scheduled
for Mondays Meeting.

Most important of the measures to
come before the assembly committee
on streets at it's meeting to be held
Monday at D. m. is the proposed ordi-
nance to amend the building code. This
ordinance of amendment relates par
ticularly to the requirements for fire

This is the ordinance that was pre-
pared by the joint committee of the
common council on public safety,
which was specially appointed for this
purpose. Representatives of the thea
ters and other interests which will be
affected have been heard and the ordi-
nance in its present form is practically
accepted as providing only such stric-
lures as are necessary to public life.
and imposing no unnecessary hard
ships upon the owners of public build
ings.
Another matter awaiting considera-
ton by this committee is the resolu-
ton already passed by the board Of
aldermen to appropriate 5000 to con-
Struct cement walk and steps at the
base of the soldiers monument at the
corner of Summit avenue and Third
street.
Other matters to come up are the
petition of Joseph Hahn and others for
the vacation of the alley in Hahn's
subdivision Of Whitney's subdivision
of Brewster's addition, located at the
corner of Rice and Como; the reso-
luton appropriating $3.50 to aid in the

passed the board of aldermen with a
provisO that the petitioners be re-
quired to pay $50 to the city for the
concession they ask.

TWIN CITY BANK
CLERKS WIN DEBATE
Team From Chicago Chapter
of Organization Defeated
at Commercial Club.

Picked men from the st. Paul and
Minneapolis chapters of the American
Institute Of Bank Clerks last night de-
feated representatives of the Chicago
chapter in a debate at the Commercial
club. The question discussed was,
Resolved, That pension system for
bank clerks in the United States should
be established" the Twin City men
taking the affirmative.
The local men were J. M. Anderson.
of the State Savings bank, ST. Paul;
G. M. Pridham, Second National, St.
Paul; L. E. Wakefield, Northwestern
National, Minneapolis, and their oppo-
nents were James 1. Ennis, Merchants
Loan and Trust company, Chicago;
John ]. Arnold, First National, Chi
cago, and Paul E. Zimmerman, North
ern Trust company, Chicago.
The affirmative debaters argued that
a pension system would work to the
benefit Of both the bank clerks and
the officials, in that it would ensure
faithful and constant service, and that
1t would afford protection to the bank
ers at comparatively small cost.
They pointed to several instances
where pension systems are now in ex-
1stence and operating satisfactorily.
The Chicago men held that 1t would be
impossible to establish a uniform sys-
tenn, as conditions in various inStitu-
tons and different parts Of the country
vary.
G. H. Richards, president Of the Min
neapolis chapter, presided, and @. A.
Severance, Kenneth Clark, of st. Paul,
and F. A. Chamberlain, of Minneapo-
lis acted as judges. Mr.. Severance,
who delivered the decision, said that
while the Chicago men had the best
delivery the local men had the best
arguments. The victorious debaters
were presented with diamond stick
pins by F. D. Monfort, of the Second
National Bank of st. Paul.
After the debate the visitors were
entertained at a banquet by the st.
Paul chapter at the club. E. w. Finck,
chairman of the st. Paul chapter, pre-
sided, and addresses were made by
Judge James w. Lusk. Otto Nelson, c.

nearly 100 coming from Minneapolis in
chartered cars.
