Remains Of Mchigan's Former Cover
nor, Stevens T. Mason, Are
Inferred

Detroit, Mich, June 5.-In Capitol
square Sunday afternoon, surrounded
by distinguished gathering of state
and city officials and direct descend
ents, the remains of Stevens T. Mason,
Michigan's first governor, were REIN
tered in q tomb over which an appro-
rriate monument will be erected
The remains of Gov. Mason ever
since his death, over fifty years ago,
have rested in New York cemetery.
1t has ever been a desire of his rela-
tives that they be removed to the
state where once he governed. Sun
day their anticipations were realized,
and with beautiful and appropriate
ceremonies the body Of this illustrious
statesman was buried on the very
pot where once stood the state sspi-
toll building-now O beautiful little
park In the very heart of Detroit.
The remains reached the city on an
early morning train. In the afternoon
services were held in Light Guard ar
mory. Addresses were made by Gov.
Warner, Mayor Codd and others, after
which in solemn procession the body
was escorted to Capitol square and in
terment made.

how beautiful, is Injurious to the ner-

no reason why country woman should
not have batter health and keep young

woman. Mrs. Clayton Potter spoke
we'll on this subject, mentioning tasks
to be performed In the home. She

to exercise and no matter what duties
one had TO perform to try and manage
so as to have the afternoon to enjoy.

economy.

the program was again taken up.

William Woodwork, one of Ovid's

Mrs. Frank Waite, Rev. j. F. Fryer,

The humiliation of Distance.

How much nearer to each other the
nations of the world seem to be to-day
and really are to-day than was the case
q few decades agol When weeks and
months were required for communica-
ton between the United States and
Europe the countries of the old world
appeared to be long way off. Now
the circumference of old earth is belted
with telegraph and cable lines in every
possible direction. What happens to-
day in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia,
South America and the great islands of
the sea is made known to us tomorrow
by great newspapers like The Chicago
Record Herald, whose foreign CORES
pondents are located in every import
ant city in the world outside of the

staff correspondents The Record Herald
enjoys the foreign news service of the
New York Herald, famous for many
years for the reliability of its foreign

IL women voted, they would expect to
hold office and that would never do.
Mrs. Auiler would very much like to
have the women vote, especially on
the temperance question.
Gentlemen's Topic-The financial
value of the farmers wife. G.. O.
Potter was not aware that he was to
talk en- this topic, but as usual, gave
some good ideas. He said the value
of q wife could not be estimated. and
that he knew of cases where the wife
was the real fnancier on the farm.
Mr.. Peterson, the next speaker, said
there was q great difference In this
respect, but the majority Of women
were great factor In the success OF a
man. He didn't know as he could put
the value on woman, even II the as
SCISSOR came around.
The state subject was then taken
up: How do the opportun ities for
obtaining a livelihood and honorable
citizenship on the farm compare with
similar conditions In other callings?
Mr.. Mason thinks chances are favor
able for the farmer; Mr.. Potter, that
opportunities we're even greater. ]. D.
Sherman, that man has as good
chance of being an honorable man as
elsewhere and can attain to almost
anything he aspires to. A. L.
Sprinkle has found that he can make
q living on the farm. William Saver:
"These smart men we hear 50 much
about never did much hard work on
the farm" J. U. Miller: "There is
nothing like the country II one has
health and strength to carry on the
farm"
The meeting closed with the song.
"Work for the Night is Coming"
The club will meet with Mr.. and
Mrs. Clayton Potter July 6, when the
following program will be carried out:
Do the farmers make as much clear
money with all the improved machin-
cry as when they had to do their
work by hand? J. D. Sherman, f. H.

Of the farmers wife's husband? Mrs.
Doty, Mrs. Peterson.

The Farm Cream Separator.

The cream separator for farm use is
here to stay. 1t has proven its utility,
and we want to impress upon those of
our readers with mich COWS the abso.
lutte necessity Of making use of its un
disputable advantages. In many cases
it would be more profitable to sell one
of your COWS to pay for a separator.
rather than do without one. For we
know of instances where farmers with
| FIVE to ten COWS have found that a
cream separator actually added to the
! profits as much as another COW would,
aud remember that this profit kept
| right along with the use of the separa-
tor. You would have to pay for the
keep of the extra COW, but the separa-
tor makes the profit and "keeps" itself.
Some farmers prefer to sell their
cream to the creamery, others to churn
1t at home. Dairymen with select
butter or cream trade have learned that
they can only obtain and hold the extra
price they receive by producing high
grade article possible only by using a
separator.
Moreover, separator keeps the valu-
able skim milk right at home in its best
condition, ready to feed to the young
stock when warm and fresh. Many
farmers are now losing the profit from
this by-product of their herd, and may
be contracting a whole lot of trouble in
the cold sour lot of mixed skim milk
brought home from the creamery. We
certainly advise our readers to purchase
a cream separator.
In looking at separator, pay careful
attention to the construction of its op-
Grating parts. A cheap separator, like
other cheap apparatus, gives cheap SER
vice. A well-made machine will wear
for years, soon saving its cost over the
old skimming methods by the increase
it makes in your product, and the profit
continues after the machine has al
ready paid for itself. Be sure the sepa-
rator you buy is clean skinner. 1t
is prudent to consider the reliability of
the makers back of the machine. The
VERMONT FARM MACHINE CO.,
Bellows Falls, VT, manufacturers of
the famous United States Cream Sepa-
rators. that hold the worlds record for
closest skimming, have applied to the
separator problem successful manu-
featuring experience of over thirty
years. Any one of our readers may OBJ
tain from them handsome little book,
entitled "The Dairy" which contains
highly profitable information for every
farmer milking cows. Drop them
postal card for one.

Hoard's Dairyman Commends Mich
iean's Governor.

Hoard's Dairyman, the greatest
authority on dairying in this country,
and in no sense political publication,
speaks thus of Gov. Warner and his
appointments
1t was most fortunate for the dairy
and agricultural interests of Michigan
that she elected as her chief magis-
trate Gov. Warner. He is man who
can see the things that belong to the
agricultural interests of his state. One
of the acts of wisdom that he has al
ready done is the appointment of that
veteran dairyman, Colon G.. Lille, to
the position of Deputy Dairy and Food
Commissioners. It means almost every
thing to have the right man in the
right place. Under the lead of these
two warm friends of the cause of true
dairy education and advancement, new
legislation duties have been enacted by
the present legislature, greatly en-
larging the duties and usefulness of
the Dairy and Food Department
Commissioner Lille has issued a cir
eular setting forth what he de-
sires to do for the dairy farmers of
the state. He ought to be met with
frank, earnest cooperation by every
true lover of the state. 1t was such
legislation and the earnest cooperation
of her people that helped greatly to
make of Wisconsin what she is of a
dairy state
