for cream, AM. the fa-Ger can general

market than he can By selling either
milk or E:.:ter. Generally he will
get as much for the cream as he would
for the milk and cream if he sold
them together. or he will get as much
for the cream as he will for the butter.
He is relieved from the trouble of max

milk to use on his farm. This skim
milk is of great value for food in his
own family and also of large feeding
value for the animals of the farm. We
have had reports from different people

FACTS FOR THE HoMEsEEkER.
Strong Article by Hon. w. c. Gil
breath, North Dakota's Commission.
ar of Anriculture

or OF Agriculture.
Your readers have been told of the
many excellent advantages, both COM
mercial and industrial, which North
Dakota possesses. They have been
furnished statistics showing its mar
Vicious growth and wonderful devel-
opment during the past decade. They
have been presented with experiences
of the t;:!ers of the soil, the stock
raissrs, tie business men and the in
vestors. Trey have been given the
statement of farmers of the amount
of grain they have raised to the acre,
the average yield and such other
items that would be of interest to the
prospective purchaser. If these facts,
figures and experiences fail to con-
vince they should, at least, persuade
the skeptical or unbelievers to make
a thorough and exhaustive inyestiga-
ton of the soil, clil,sate, resources and
opportunities which this state has,
and if not entirely satisfied, abandon
all intention of ever settling in North
Dakota.
Many Of your readers will remem-
Der the time when they could have
bought the cheapest lands in Indiana,
Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Mime
sofa at from $40 to s25 an acre. They
also recall the fact that they were
told that the climate was too rigid,
the seasons too short and the land too
poor to produce reasonable crops.
Many believed it and did not, to their
great sorrow, invest. Climatic con-
ditions changed as the country set
tied. and the assertion that profitable
crops were an impossibility was prov
en- to be falsehood, pure and sim
pie. These choice lands to-day are
selling from $75 to 5000 an acre and
the end is not yet.
In the light of these indisputable
facts, and in the face OF the history
of the gradual rise OF real estate IN
the East, it is astonishing that men
who want to buy land will hesitate,
when they are convinced that the day
OF cheap lands on the North Ameri-
can continent will be shortly q thing
Of the past.
During the past year there has been
an unlimited amount of government
land from which to select a home. 1t
had only nominal purchasing price
and many used it without going thru
the necessary legal channels to obtain
it. But these lands are almost all
gone, only few million acres remain,
and when they are taken will come
a scramble for private lands. 1t Is as
tonishing the number of acres that
have disappeared from government to
private ownership in the past year.
Every homestead taken increases the
value of adjacent lands, and the con-
slant filing upon government land will
eventually raise the price OF private
lands to good round, stiff figure. De-
lays are dangerous, as the men who
contemplate buying low-priced land
will realize unless they make their
purchases very soon.

Another case came under our notice
recently A certain young man needed

had them, but after reading the glow.
ing description in these catalogues, he
thought we were entirely too high
priced. He ordered-the suit came.
It was to have been all wool 1--WE know
1t wasn't). Then the style of the coat
was from few years back. 1t was a
he had sent tina money.
Another tine good farnoer ordered
five rolls OF barb wire. When It came
and he had paid the freight, he found
he could have saved 81 and good deal
Of time and trouble by buying at home.
Also this came to our notice: A man
ordered wire fencing. The picture
looked so good he desired to put it up
around his home. When it came 1t was
SO different that he stored it away in
his smoke house, as it was not suited
for his use at all. We know OF scores
of other instances where goods receiv-
ed were not UP to expectations.
We know it to be fact that vehi.
cles and farm machinery bought from
some of these concerns which looked
cheap at the time of purchase, but af.
ter few years usage proved that had
these people bought from their home
dealer, although at higher price. they
would actually have received more for
their money-and SO 1t is all through
the line.
Harness Poor Grades.
Take harness and saddlery; there
are several good reasons why you
should buy Of your home dealer. First,
all the harness is made right here at
home in a careful manner out Of the
best quality oak tanned leather-not
like Mr.. Catalogue Man does-who sim.
ply goes to manufacturer and says, at
what price can you make 80 many sets

good description Of, but caring not how
It is made or how long 1t will last? He
does not expect to sell more than one
set to customer, for experience has
proved that when some one had set
sent they did not desire second one.
Another thing. II you have an old set
OF harness or collar to repair, does Mr..
Catalogue Man repair them for you?
No! II you want new set of harness
you can bring your catalogue with you
to the home dealer and he will be glad
to figuie with you and save you from

I4fAll[!2&11:
silaee as a Feed Reserve.

The man that has good many
mich cows knows the advantages OF
having always on hand large supply
of good feed. One of the great OBJ
stacles in the way of successful dairy.
ing is the unevenness Of the season.
Some years there is an abundance OF
pasturage and an abundance Of grass
in the meadows, which is made into
cheap and nutritious hay. But there
are other years when the pastures are
dry and consequently short, and the
crops in the meadow are so small that
before the winter is half over the
farmer has to buy feed or sell part OF
his COWS. Too often the profits OF
one season are eaten up by the losses
in another season.
AS usual thing the farmer or dairy
man that is caught short on his feed
tries to keep along by feeding straw
mixed with ground feed. He imagines
that he is saving the loss that would
be cccasionel by the purchase OF hay
at fancy prices. In fact he is losing
heavily in the feeding of such make.
shifts, for the amount of fiber that has
to be digested is so abnormally high
that the little nutriment in the straw
costs too much to make it pay to try
to get it out
How much '>etter for tie farmer to
have always on hand large supply
of a nutritious feed such as silage.
There are years when the weather con-
ditions are such that an immense
amount OF silage can be grown on q
small area of ground. Some of our
enterlrising dairymen carry silage con
tinually in their silos, and when the
corn crop Of one year is being harvest
ed they are still using silage from
the lot put in the preceding year.
The more silos built the better is 1t
for the man that is trying to conduct
business profitably. Doubtless silage
carried for two and three years will
be found to be as good as silage used
at the end CT few months. One dairy.
man tells me that he prefers s1lage
a year old for his cows and that they
always drop on their milk yield when
he changes from old to new silage,
showing that they find the old silage
the more digestible.-John Stinson,
Bureau c., ILL.,, in Farmers Review.

Vaccination for Anthrax.

There has been an outbreak Of
anthrax In Rome, Italy, and the
veterinarians have been vaccinating
according to the Pasteur method
Tor preventing the spread of the
disease. The results were fairly
good with small doses. The work
was effective when combined with the
careful destruction Of all carcesses Of

The best varieties produce the best

Swiping all The Whitefish.

The people who went to the
Fishery to catch whitefish are feel
ing sore because people from out
side had drawn nets clean across
the mouth of the river, preventing
the fish from swimming up. The
same thing was done two years ago.
The object is to dam the fish below
the taut-drawn net where they are
caught by the wagonload, and peo-
ple going above this net cannot get
a fish. Such a system of catching
fish is wrong, because the whitefsh
cannot get up stream to spawn
which they are trying to do as this
is their spawning season-and will
eventually be exterminated if this
practice is not stopped. By the
ordinary seining sufficient fish es-
cape to propagate their species.
John Rantala and others took
one of these nets out. The owner
made a gun play, but seeing the
odds were against him he asked
for the return of his net, which was
given, and departed.
