ly stopped as the thought swept over him
again that God would help him. He
leaned against the vines creeping over
the rock. They parted and he fell pre-
cipitately into a narrow recess in the
rock which the vines had completely hid
den. So startled was he by the sudden
ness of it all that he did not hear the
hurried footsteps as they passed. He
did not see Esau's tense, cruel face as he
sped by. He did not hear his muttered
oath as he exclaimed: "He cannot be
much ahead of me now" But Jacob as
he lay there dazed and bruised had a
strange feeling of calmness come steal
ing into his heart Was it the answer
ing assurance of faith He hardly knew
what faith was. Was it the awakening
consciousness Of God and of Gods over
ruling providences for him? Perhaps.
Certain it is that as he sat in the little
retreat and rested his thoughts were of
the God of his fathers and what had
been promised him. And as the sun sank
to rest and the night settled down he
reused himself from his reveries and
stepped forth FROM his narrow shelter.
And he took of the stones of that place,
and put them for his pillows, and lay
down in that place to sleep And he
dreamed, and behold ladder set up ON
the earth, and the top of it reached to
Heaven. And behold the angels Of God
ascending and descending on it. And
God spoke to him there that night. And
Jacob rose early In the morning and took

TAKE CARE OF THE cows.
Advice That is Given by Dairy Com
missioner Slater.

E. X. Slater state dairy and food
commissioner, reckons that the farmers
of Minnesota are losing Approximately
$30,000,00O a year just because they dc
not take proper care of their cows.
In series of tests conducted by the
state department it was learned that
one Minnesota COW in 1903 produced
1862 pounds of butter, as compared
with l66 pounds produced by the aver
age cow. If the 435,740 cows which fur
nished milk to Minnesota creameries in
1903 produced as much butter as the
best COW, the total would have been
POI ,4I2,240 pounds, instead of 1896
348. This was a loss of l35, l45 ,S92
pounds, OF butter worth $27 ,029, l7840.
Mr.. Slater estimates that the total
production of butter this year will APP
proximate sOOOOOOO pounds, so that if
all cows produce as much this year as
the best COW did in 1903, the saving to
Minnesota farmers will be about $780,
100000.
These facts are emphasized by the
dairy and food commissioner to illus
trate the Importance of taking proper
care of cows. If every COW i'll Mime
sofa were given the same care as to
feed, shelter, sanitation, etc, as that
received by the prize winning cow of
1903, and if the same care were taken
in the manufacture of butter, Mr.. Slater
says 476.2 pounds would be the aver
age production of Minnesota cows, the
output of the best COW.
The cow which produced 1852
pounds of butter in 1903 is a Jersey
Shorthorn cross, aged eight years,
weighing 1000 pounds.

Greek Merchant on South Front Street
Disappears Suddenly.

From Saturdays Daily.
Ferris Rezuke, Greek, who has been
conducting confectionery store at SO
South Front street for several months
disappeared Tuesday afternoon, leav-
ing his wife and children in doubts as
to his destination. He left the store at
about three o'clock on the afternoon
mentioned, remarking that he was GO
ing to the fruit house for the purpose
of purchasing some peaches. He did not
go to the fruit house, but instead took
passage on the Chicago Great Western
train for Chicago. Whether he is now
in that city Mrs. Rezuke is not able
to say. Before leaving the store
Rezurke relieved the cash register of
it's burden-about $25, all the money
in sight, leaving the balance of the
family to get along as best they could
Rezuke gave his wife no intimation
that he was going to leave the city
The stock was taken possession of
last night by Deputy Sheriff Osten who
held papers in hebalf of Odjard & knott
to whom Rezuke was indebted in the sum
of sos for fixtures. The deputy was
acting in the capacity of clerk when
a Free Press representative dropped in
to make inquiries regarding the missing
husband, father and merchant
Some people are of the opinion that
Rezuke has gone hence to look up a
new location.
The claim of Odjard & knott was set
tied and the store was open for bust
ness as usual this morning.
Early this afternoon Deputy Sheriff
Osten again took possession of the store
He attached the stock to satisfy claim
of the Pay Candy company of $25. There
are other creditors and they visited the
store during the forenoon. The family
came to Mankato from Sioux Falls. The
money which was invested in the store
here belonged to Mrs. Rezuke. For some

as his trade has not been large and the
store was a losing venture
