A MODEL
STOCK FARM
Owned and Managed By Men From
Iowa Who Have Made Wonder
ful Success in Their Adopt
ed Home,
Special to the Clarion Ledger

Special to the Clarion-Ledger.
Brandon, July 19.-Cedar Lawn
Farm, located one and one-half miles
south OF here. probably is one of the
most complete and up-to date farms
to be found in the state.
Twelve years ago O. w. Owen, to-
gether with j. M. and o. L. McGil-
vra, Came into this country from the
Northern part of Iowa, and purchased
about 1 900 acres Of land then only
partially cleared. The first move
made by these men was to erect a
sawmill with capacity of 5000 feet.
A little later they added a planer,
and grist mill. Then being con-
fronted with the fact that they must
go to Jackson for all repairs on their
machinery they added a blacksmith
and complete machine lathe, filling
long g-felt want in this country, it
being the only complete machine shop
to be found between Jackson and
Newton.
A short time ago these up-to-dste
farmers erected creamery together
with all the necessary machinery, in
Guiding a cream separator, enabling
them to make butter an hour after the
milk has come from the cow. They
are making on an average of 400
pounds week, finding a ready sale
for same in Jackson. In fact, they
are unable to supply the demand.
They have received numerous letters
from business men in different parts
OF the state, wanting the exclusiv Q
sale of their butter and showing what
demand there is for this kind of
butter.
0. L. McGilvra, the manager of the
creamery department., is champion
OF the Holstein stock, and all stock to
be found on Cedar Lawn Farm is Of
this variety. He claims that while
thu jersey and other varieties, per-
haps, give richer milk, yet the quan-
! tity the Holstein gives more than
makes up FOR like of richness. A test
was made while the writer was in the
creamery, and the milk then fresh
from the cow tested six per cent. Of
butter fat. AS these men use up-to-
date machinery all milk is separated
each day after the morning milking.
The milk which comes from the sepa-
rater is fed to large number of Berk-
shire Figs, SO that none of the pro-
duct goes to waste.
One Of the finest fields of corn to be
found in the state can be seen, and
the estimated crop would be not less
than so bushels to the acre.

ABUSE OF PUBLIC TRUSTS.

Our daily papers are now filed
with details of corruption in public
places. The most prominent men in
the land are being tried for abuses
and graft. - The cities Of Philadel-
phia and Chicago are just now fur
nishing US some object lessons.
Young men who read the daily papers
will naturally think that to be leader
Of men one has to be corrupt. Such
is not the case. There is not land
on earth which has SO many moral
men in authority as this land. There
is not a session of legislation or
congress but in it are thoroughly
good and honest men-men whose
fingers never touched a bribe, whose
cheek has never been flushed with in.
toxication, whose tongue has never
been smitten OF blasphemy or stung
Of lie. These times are not half so
bad as times that are gone. We know
this from the fact that Aaron Burr, a
man filled with iniquity until he
could hold no more, was MEMBER of
the Legislature, then attorney general,
then senator Of the United States,
then president and then came
within one vote Of the highest po-
sition in this nation. More than q
half century ago the governor Of
New York had to adjourn the legisla-
tion because it was too corrupt to sit
in counsel. There is tendency at
the present time to exort the past to
the disadvantage Of the present, and
we have right to think. taking the
past as q guide, that sixty years from
now there may be persons who will
represent some Of US as angels, al
though now things are SO unpromising
and we see much corruption in high
places. Bur the evils of the past are
no excuse for the puplio wickedness
Of today. Those Of us who occupy
editorial chairs should not hold back
the truth. II we keep back the truth
