North Dakota's butter display is now
complete and the originality shown in
the makeup of the display is remark
ed upon by many who see it. North
Dakota has one of the most desirable
spaces in the large butter refrigerator
The North Dakota space is the center
section of the entire row of sections
and next to the ends is the most desir-
able in the entire butter section. The
space contains the display of the North
Dakota butter and life size equestri-
an statue of President Theodore
Roosevelt. The work of moulding
the statue was done by a Mr.. Otto
Schmoll. 1t is an exceptionally fine
piece of work and the North Dakota
space in the butter space is always
filled with people anxious to see the
butter statue of the president.

HISTORICAL EXHIBIT.

Exhibit Of the North Dakota Historical
Society Is In Place at St. Louis.
During the past week the exhibit
of the North Dakota Historical So
ciety has been installed in the booth
in the Agricultural building. The ex.
hibit consists of ancient Indian tools,
weapons, ornaments, articles of wear
ing apparel, etc. There are many
specimens of tools and weapons which
are very primitive and are of great
interest to many visitors. Among the
articles are several pieces which have
considerable historical interest. Among
these may be mentioned the madeleine
bag and the leggings which Sitting
Bull wore in the days when he was at
the height of his power among the
Sioux. There is also very fine head
gear worn by one of the early power.

5000 FARMERS VISIT COLLEGE

President Worst: The sixth annual
farmers excursion period closed Fri
day. Between $500 and 5000 farmers
visited the agricultural college and ex-
pertinent station within the past two
weeks and with very few exceptions
expressed themselves highly pleased
with the work of the station. Most
of the visitors came for what could be
seen and learned. A very few abused
their privilege and never intended to
visit the experiment station when they
asked to have the railroads courtesy
extended to them. This latter class is
growing smaller from year to year.
The college and station never were in
closer touch with the progressive
farmers of the state than at this writ

GIANTS PROVE TOO SMALL
Wishek Giants Meet the Bismarck Team
and Go Down To Dreadful Defeat
Score 20 to 0.

BY score of 20 to o the Wishek
Giants" went down to defeat Sunday
afternoon before the Bismarck base
ball club. That the Giants were not
in the same class with the Bismarck
team was evident from the beginning
OF the game, and more so as the game
progressed. One pitcher was sent to
the tall timber early in the game and
second got his bumps in the latter
half. The Bismarck boys fattened
their batting averages at the expense
of Wishek, which team never had a
chance to score. Twice was Wishek
man able to get to third base, but
sharp playing prevented score both
times.
Bismarck started the slaughter in
the first inning when Foster got pass
and scored on Middleton's drive to
first which was fumbled by the first
baseman. In the second Ronesh got
pretty three base drive but was out
at home in attempting to score. In
the third Perry was passed, Caylor got
a safe one, Brown was passed, Murphy
whaled at the ball three times, and
got to first on a wild throw by the
catcher, Ronesh drove out a long fly
to center that was muffed and four
"uns were chalked up. Three more
we're added in the fourth on hits by
Foster and Burns, Caylor's life on a
wild throw to first, a pass to Brown
and a muff of Murphy's fly, and the
following innings were repetition of
those already described. In the eighth
inning with one out, Foster drove out
a home run, Burns drove one through
short, Middleton got a pass, Caylor
got safe hit, Brown drove out two
Dagger, Murphy was hit with pitched
ball, and Ronesh found the ball for a
safe one. Five runs.
Only thirty men went to bat fol-
Wishek in nine innings. Three hits
were obtained off Blexrud, scattered
so that none of them was effective.
The "Giants" were never in the
game, which took on the nature of a
vaudeville performance after the sec
ond inning, and the fumbles of the
Giants afforded amusement if not ex
element.

EXPERT VIEWS ON CREAMERY

successfully competing with the large
companies which are entering the field
and gathering cream over wide areas.
The former has no chance of real use
fulness and serving it's patrons profit
ably, unless it is based upon the GER
tain receipts of milk or cream from
sufficiently large number of COWS, and
then it should be managed with skill
and upon a thoroughly cooperative
plan. l am much more inclined to
place the necessary number of cows
continuously contributing, above 500
than less, and do not believe that the
best results are likely to be obtained
unless the associated patrons have
nearly if not quite 1000 COWS. Then
am fully convinced that true economy
in creamery management requires the
cream alone to be hauled to the fac
tory and the skim milk kept at home,
sweet and intelligently used upon the
,, farm where produced. In short, l fav-
, VI CuS 1oA LII ScpdA dCOl eSo IuS A4OoI wv
nomical plan of creamery manage
ment. This must be accompanied by in
telligent dairy methods among patrons,
good management of the cream and
it's shipment or delivery with sufficient
frequency and such care as to insure
arrival at the creamery in good condi-
ton.
In all cases where is is proposed to
first establish a creamery in a COM
munity, the project should be primari-
ly and chiefly in the hands of those
who own cows and are to become pa
irons, and the subject should be fully
canvassed and very deliberately con-
sidered in all it's bearings, before any
local investment is made.

Henry E. Alvord, chief of the dairy
division of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, in a recent letter,
indorses Prof. Kauffman's warning re-
garding the establishment of creamer-
les without the assurance of a suffici-
ent number of COWS to make them
permanent and successful. Mr.. Alvord
says:
A we'll supported, successful cream
cry, large enough to be economically
managed and truly profitable to its pa
irons, is a blessing in any community.
On the other hand, small, weak
creamery, established under conditions
which are sure to prove disappointing
and result in loss. is not only an in
jury to the dairy industry for the time,
but is sure to give it such blow as
will prevent it's progress in the neigh
borhood for years.
Nothing can be added to your state
ment on the subject but every inf1u.
ence ought to be exerted to prevent in
vestment in creamery in any commu-
nifty until conditions are thoroughly
ripe for it and it can be started with a
certainty of steady growth and con-
tinued success. The market price OF
butter has been low for some time and
we cannot depend upon any material
increase in the near future. 1t is high
ly important, therefore, to keep the
cost per pound of manufacture as low
as possible One large creamery can
do the work much more economically
and better in every way, than a num-
Der of small ones.
A single, small neighborhood cream
cry has little prospect in these days OF
