CuII the Herd.

A very great failing among dairy
men is the disposition SO widely seen
to refuse to Gull out the herd, says
Hoard's Dairyman. Somehow every
farmer feels as if he could not afford
to reduce his herd by selling off the
Indifferent ones The refuse corn and
vegetables will soon come in play, and
with them and the fall grass the poor
cow can be put in good market condi-
ton for the butcher. We have known
men to sell off half Of their herd and
make more net profit ON the remaining
half than they did with the whole
herd.

KOCH OUT ON BAIL.
Judge Cray Grants Petition WithOu
Argument.
New Ulm Review.


George Koch is home again again
after having spent week in the
Blue Earth county Jail awaiting the
return of Judge Cray from his
court duties at st. James. Immed-
lately at o'clock court was called
in the long room that has been the
scene of the celebrated trial at Man
kato, and Geo. Koch, accompanied
by Sheriff Williams entered and
took their places within the railing.
Attorney Clark arose to present
the application for bail and began
his argument when he was stopped
by Judge Cray who suggested that
the state present it's argument first.
This was done and Mr.. Childs put
forth all the eloqunce in his power
in an effort to convince the court
that the satisfaction of justice de-
mand that the man accused with the
crime of killing DR.. Gebhardtshould
be confined to the county jail until
the time set for his new trial, but
all this was of no avail for when he
had closed. without listening to
further argument, Judge Cray rul
ed that the prisoner should be re-
leased on bail, the bond being fixed
at 500
Attorney Clark presented the
bond of the defense signed by DR..
L. A. Fritsche, Henry Frenzel,
Chas. Wagner, John Eckstein, E.
G. Koch and VIM. Koch, which was
approved and the prisoner released.
DR.. Koch returned to New Ulm
on the noon train with his brother
in-law, Henry N. Somsen, and was
congratulated by many of hisfriends
in this city. He was highly pleased
over his release from the custody of
the sheriff, though he had no reason
to find fault with the conduct he
had received at the hands of Sheriff
Williams. During his incarcera-
ton be had the use of the entire up
per floor of the Jail and was treated
with all the kindness and conside-
ration it was in the power of the
sheriff to grant.
DR.. Koch is looking well and is in
good spirits. He will take up the
practice of his profession at once
and will open up Offices over the
Model meat market in the rooms
owned'lbyl Chas. Stuebe. These
rooms he secured some two months
ago, but has been awaiting the re-
suit oftthe trial before removing his
effects to them.
1t was agreedsthat the next trial
is to be held on July 9Th, at Man
kato, and the attorneys for the de-
tense are convinced that the third
trial will result in complete ac-
quittal.
On Wednesday Attorney General
Childs appeared before the Brown
county commissioners and presented
his bill for fees and expenses incurred
by him in the first trial. 1t amounted
to s1.2O5.15 and was allowed without
discussion.
Gen. Childs then informed the COM
missioners that the third trial would be
held at Mankato beginning on July s,
and that it was his desire to have two
assistants-one of them to be county

county, who was associated with him

MIX Veins of a Good Cow.

The milk veins found along the stom.
ach of the COW should be very tortuous
They wind about on the belly and pass
into the body through oriices in the
rear of the fore flank, says Hoard's
Dairyman. Their duty is to convey
the venous blood to the lungs for
publication. Hence the larger the
veins the better indication it is that
the circulation of the blood through the
udder is very large, and naturally the
larger the circulation of the blood the
greater will be the milk production,
because milk, after all, is really prod'

Last Week.
The Methodist missionary women
came, saw and1 were conquered; or
erhaps we should say charmed;
first by the heartiness of their well
come; the local missionary zeal ex-
hibited, and the beauty Of the city
and of the lake as shown to them
in drive around the city in car
riage. We observed among them
Mesdames Frank Doran and B. G.
GilliesIof Marshall, w. A. Brnss of
Elmore,lC. G.lLindsay of Minneap-
oils, j. Thorn OF Rushmore, Mrs.
Elliott OF Slayton, Mrs. Sullivan of
Marshall and others.
DR.. Cowgirl had hung the walls
of the parlor with missionary maps
just now sprepared. One showed
how Americans spend their money:

Chewing gum, 81 100000.
Millinery, sS0.000,0 900.
Confectionery, 7S,00O,0 900.

equally telling, though they should
be seen to be fully understood.
The program as given in last
week S paper was thoroughly car
ried through, and proved of great
interest aud benefit. For the Tues
day evening session Mrs. Wallace
had prepared amental and spiritual
feast, and we thought she had effect

women for most energetic cam
paign this year, as one after ar
other of our poets masterpieces
were introduced with few fitting
words, and most feelingly rendered
by the following ladies, Mesdames
King, Corpron, Ralston, Tiffany and
Bowers. Mrs. Cowgirl and Miss
Carnegie gave a duet. Mrs. Grapp
contributed a splendid reading.
Mrs. Bruss of Elmore spoke at
length on "How we may advance

sang "It.will be sunshine to-mor-

The closing number was Mrs. E.

and undaunted missionary, Isabella
Thoburn. No one could hear of
what this noble woman has done for
missions in India, and the Deacon

Evolution Of Aouse-heatina.

In the primitive fireplace the smoke
was supposed to pass through an
opening in the Roof, but failing in this,
says Country Life in America, 1t es-
capped, with the occupants, through
the handiest side opening. The mid
die ages set the hearth against the
wall and built projecting hood of
brick or stone above it to carry off
the smoke. Gradually the fireplace
was built with two flanking jambs,
which supported it, and thus the pres
ent form Of fireplace was evolved. AS
the armorial bearing was prominent
feature Of decoration in these times,
its embodiment in the treatment of
the fireplace became common and the
already important fireplace became
the central feature of the room. At
a later period the fireplace was let
into the wall, as is the common form
today.
At first the fireplace opening was OF
small dimension, but, on the theory
that the larger opening meant an in
crease of heat, 1t was enlarged to
great size. Then, when the tendency
to draw children and furniture up the
chimney or let in all the outside cold
through the enormous opening found
little hindrance in the iron doors en-
ployed to remedy the defect, they
went back to the smaller opening as
a relief.

EIGHT Thieves In Commandment.


Two or three years ago, was told,
Jew, who owned some Of the houses,
leased them to a Christian, who pro-
ceeded to make his profit by dividing
the rooms into two, furnishing each
compartment with a shake down."
two chairs, tin cooking pan and two
cups, and then letting each compart-
chose to pay. One night the authorf-
ties found eight thieves sleeping in
a single compartment. The compart-
ment money was received by dep
uty," and once a week the lessee came
and carried it away.
The temptation was too much for
the natives, as he might have known.
One night they fell upon the worthy
Christian, half killed him and relieved
him of his hoard. But NOBODY was
arrested. For whatever happens in
this street there are not many arrests,
unless half dozen policemen are ON
the spot at the time. The occupants
half murder each other at times, but
no one who valued his life would give
information to the police.
What can be done with It? II you

cry was pulled down, the inhabitants
will migrate elsewhere. An intelli-
gent police officer suggested that the
scores of don 't-works" who live in
its novels should be swept into the
army and made to serve for ten years.
1t Is obvious that the prison system
leaves such people unreformed. AS
soon as the burglars and pickpockets
are released from jail they run back
to their old street, and there they con.
coct new plans for wrongdoing.
