SAVED 100000.
State Will Save Farmers that Much on
Binding Twine.

Minnesota farmers will save ap-
proximately $780, 600 annually in the
purchase of binding Irvine when the
new machinery recently installed in
the Irvine plant at the state prison
is run to its full capacity, which
will probably be next year.
The saving this year will approx
innate $275, 900. The state board of
control plans to manufacture APP
proximately 100000 pounds, and
the prices fixed by the state are
about p cents lower than the prices
to consumers fixed by dealers in
binding twine.
At the close of the present year
the amount which Minnesota farm
ers will have saved thru the state
twine plant will be nearly 81, 500,
600, and the profit to the state will
be considerably in excess of $780,
600. Since the plant was established
in 1891 more than 1000, 600 pounds
of Irvine have been manufactured.
The state has recently installed
new machinery, which will mater
tally increase the output of the
plant.
The board of control expects to
manufacture from $4,000, 900 to 49,
600, 900 next year. The new ma
chinery is in operation, but the
plant will not be run to it's full ca
pacity this year.
One reason why the state is able
to save Minnesota farmers so large
an amount this year is because the
board of control purchased the raw
material early, before the prices
went up. In addition to this the
state being large purchaser can
get the best bargains, and being a
large manufacturer, can reduce ex-
penSeS to the minimum.

encampment idea. A goodly mum.
Der of the posts was represented
here on that occasion. Itwas enthsi
astically voted to hold the 1905 en-,
campment here on the dates men
toned above.

The Redwood Falls steering com
mittee was present and assured the
old soldiers that everything thai
could be done by this city to make
the encampment a success would be
done, and that the committee would
be pleased to assist in securing en-
campment grounds along the banks
of the lake, or at any other place
the veterans chose, and also tt
assist them in securing entertain
ment and making their various
camp-fires a success.
The last encampment held by the
division was in conjunction with {
July 4th celebration. The two
events joined caused more or less
friction and the old soldiers votec
to have dates separate for celebra
ton in the future.

METHODS OF MILKING.
Best Results Are Obtained by Keep
ing the Flow Steady.

Best Results Are Obtained by Keep
ing the Flow Steady.
For some reason the paragraphs
which used to go the rounds of the ag-
ricultural papers claiming that rapid
milking was the best method of milk
ing seem to have been dropped out
of sight, says American Cultiyator.
Possibly those who used to copy them
have learned how to milk a COW or
have given place to others who have
learned that doing thing well is bet
ter than doing it quickly.
Keeping up a steady flow of milk
from the beginning to the end Of the
process helps to keep up the supply,
but the strong grasp that tries to force
out a stream of milk larger than the
orifice in the teat will allow to run
easily is painful to the COW and may
produce an Inflammation of the udder
that will result in an attack of garget.
Then also the rapid mixer in his haste
will fail to get all the milk from the
udder, and that last milk, or stripping,
as it is called, has a much larger per-
centage of butter fat than the milk
that is first drawn.
The last pint taken by a careful
mixer has often tested from IA to 20
per cent of butter fat, or about half as
much as good cream, and this when the
average of the entire milking has not
exceeded per cent or may have fall
en- below that. To lose this excep-
toionally rich product is not only to re-
duce the butter value of the entire
milking, but it has a tendency to cause
the cow to dry off earlier than she
should, as that milk, or almost cream,
much be absorbed again into the sys-
tenn.
The mixer should not stop to talk
while milking, but should not hurry
by exerting too much strength at his
work or by stopping as soon as he
does not get as large stream as he
did when he first began. In this re-
spect the European custom Of having
the milking done by women is better
than ours, as they exert less strength
and have more patience.

Unexpressed.
Dwells within the soul OF every artist
More than all his effort can express;
And he knows the best remains unuftered,
Signing at what we call his success.
Valnly he may strive; he dare not tell
All the sacred mysteries of the skies;
Vainly he may strive; the deepest beauty
Cannot be unveiled to mortal eyes.
And the more devoutly that he listens.
And the holier message that Is sent
still the more his soul must struggle vain

Bowed beneath a noble discomfort.
No great thinker ever lived and taught

All the wonder that his soul received;
NO true painter ever sat on canvas
All the glorious vision he conceived.
No musician ever held your spirit
Charmed and bound In his melodlous
chains.
But be sure he heard and strove to rem

Feeble echoes of celestial strains.
No real poet ever wove in numbers
All his dream. but the diviner part,
Hidden from all the world. spake to him

In the voiceless silence of his heart.
So with love-for love and art united
Are twin mysteries, different, yet the
same.
Poor indeed would be the love of any
Who could find its full and perfect

Love may strive. but vain is the endeavor
All its boundless riches to unfold
Still It's tenderest, truest secret fingers
Even in its deepest depths untold.
Things OF time have voices. speak and

Art and love speak. but their words

Like sighings of iilimitable forests
And waves OF an unfathomabie sea.

A Russian View of IL

The Novce Vremya, IA leading
Russian journal, lays the blame
of the war H. che East on the Uuit-
ed States. That journal holds
that the United States instigated
japan to undertake the war in
order TO check Russian progress
in the East and promote American
interests in that quarter. Japan
is simply used as a cats paw to
pull the chestnuts out of the fire
for American merchants and
manufacturers. The Novoe Vremya
makes out it's case to lite own
satisfaction, but its view is news
to the people of this country. If
it be true that Japan's triumph
will promote American interests,
then there is q valid reason for
American sympathy with the Mi
kadO and his subjects in the
present war. The truth, however,
is, that America had nothing TO
do with bringing on the war. Rus
sian aggression and Russian bad
faith alarmed Japan and drove
her to take up arms in her own
defense.
The Novoe VremYa has drawn on
its imagination for its facts and
It's motive was to find
some explanation of the attitude
Of most Americans toward Russia
and Japan. The premises are all
but at least one conclusion
is correct. Japan is fighting the
battle, not only of herself but of
the commercial world, including
he United States. Her victory !
will mean that Russia shall not |
,bsorb Manchuria and Korea, |
md threaten the integrity of ia
pan as well as China. 1t will mean
hat those mighty empires contain
ng third of the population of
he globe shall be kept open for
he commerce of the world.

THE GUARDIAN OF OUR BODY.

The foremost biologist of our day,
M. Metschnikof, has shown the world
of science that there are leucocytes in our
blood that act as scaveuRcrs or policemen.
These policemen which are called phag0-
fyf<S look out for the nonious OF poisonous
elements in orr blood. Various offending
elements are picked out Of the blood and
tissues by these policemen and destroyed.
Therefore our lives are protected By
these blood-ce1l. policemen, the bbag0cyfeJ.
and we enjoy Immunity from disease 50
long as our blood contains plenty Of phago-
oytes and red blood eofpuscles
"A new broom sweeps clean and in
order 10 put our own house In order we
must get rid Of all the poisons in the blood
with a new broom such as an alternative
extract made from roots and hefbs-with-
out the use of alcohol as DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, a specific for
making rich red blood-for eradicating the
poisons from the blood. In some way the
policemen in the blood are increased in
number and strength-so that we are put
in the best possible shape to resist disease
to cure neuralgia, colds, catarrh, and in
cipient consumption.
NThe more study and time is given to the
subject the more we find that the blood II
the center Of life T-says DR.. X. Y. Pierce,
the noted specialist Of Buffalo, uthe health
and comfort of the average person depends
entirely on this blood supply-for the heart
must have pure blood or Il will not pump
and keep the body supplied regularly like
the beautiful automatic engine il is. The
nerves must be fed on pure blood-or we
sufter the pain Of neuralgia, which is the
cry Of the starved nerves for food Head
aches, cold in the head catarrh-and many
other things are due TO stagnation of the
blood"
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a mild
laxative. No other medicine equals them
for gentleness and thoroughness.
