covered one person who has never
eaten meat in his life.
The person Is Hubert H. Bretx. q 16-

logg has received letter from the
boys mother in which she says tina:
her son has never eaten meat. chicken,
turkey, oysters. or even eggs, the taste
of which he does not know. He will
not eat broths favored with meat.
From infancy he showed an abnor-
renee for meat When a child the
mother would put potato over a piece
OF meat ana try to deceive him, but he
always ate the potato ana rejected the
meat. When he grew older the mother
attempted to hire him to eat meat, but
to no purpose. All the rest of the
family are meat eaters.
Contrary TO the prophecies of the
physicians that he would be sickly
and delicate. he has enjoyed the best
OF health and has never been i'll more

athlete and fond of outdoor sports, be-
ing captain of the high school football

The boy weighs 140 pounds and Is

There are many non-meat eaters Ia

Mrs. Bretz. the mother, writes that
the boys diet is principally potatoes,
which must be cooked without grease.
Mashed or baked is his favorite meth
cd Of preparation. He could eat pota-
toes three times a day and never ask
for anything else. He eats plenty OF
bread and navy beans. He cares moth
ing for pastry and eats little fruit.

The animal raked Bonavita with its
long claws, threw him against the

falling like a log it sprang again
sunk its teeth into his left shoulder
and, dragging him three feet to cor

the hand helpless. AS it launched it.

HOLSTEIN.FRElSANS
FOR THE DAIRY.

In a conversation with Mr.. Setzick,
the Eureka creamery man, one day
this week, he gave us an idea OF the
rapid way. in which the creamery in
dustry is growing In this part Of the
world A dozen farmers are selling
cream now to where there was one i.
few years ago. Not only is the in
creased output due to beginners, but
also, to the fact that many OF those
whollave been at it some time arc
increasing the number OF COWS milIlcd
by them.
Mr.. Seitzick thinks that the Hol-
stcin-Freisan is the best COW for this
section, where those selling cream
find it profitable to raise their male
calves and some of their hcifcrs for
beef. The Jersey, although great
butter-maker, is too small to do much
toward keeping up the beef end.
Mr.. Seitzick states that the farmers
around Eureka-where practically all
of them are selling cream or are just
about to begin doing so-who have
been in the business for some time,
and are therefore prepared to speak
from experience-say that, by putting
a little oil meal with the separator
milk they can raise just as good
calves as with the whole milk.
Mr.. Seitzick says that work will
soon be begun ON the Linton cream
cry building.

and Ward counties did considerable
damage.
"Whilc the hot, moist and sultry
weather was favorable to the spread
of rust, it does not appear to have
made any material progress, and but
very few reports of damage from it
have been received. Black rust is
appearing in some places, but seems
to be confined to the leaves, and has
not attacked the stalk as yet.
"Some early wheat has been cut.
The most OF the crop is now headed,
and, except in a few instances, the
heads are said to be long and filling
well. Harvesting OF rye and barley,
and also Of early oats, has commenced.
Flax is generally doing very we'll,
although in some sections it has been
damaged by wilt. Corn has made
very rapid progress. 1t is now in
tassel in all parts Of the state, and
promises we'll.

DAILY TRAIN
ON MILWAUKEE

Beginning Monday, Aug. 2lst, the
passenger train from Aberdeen that
now runs only as far north us Eureka
will run to Linton. 1t is thought that
the train will reach town about noon
and depart about 2:3O p. IN. 1t will
carry the mail. The new train will
open unbounded possibilities for better
mail service in parts of the county
that now have the worst service imag-
Unable.
Take Dale, for instance. The COM
munication between that well-settlcd
section and the county seat could not
be much worse than it is at present.
Letters and papers leaving Linton
Friday morning do not get to Dale
until the following Tuesday. There
is now daily mail service, we under
stand, between iceland un the Mil
waukee and Artas on the 500. The
distance between the two points is
only seven miles. II the service
makes, or is changed to make, the
right connections, mail matter leaving
Linton in the morning will reach Ar
tas, Herreid and Pollock the same
day. Under us close connections as
this, the tri-weekly mail between Pol
lock and Dale would enable the people
of the Dale neighborhood to obtain,
every other day, mail that left the
county seat us late as 2:3O the day be-.
fore.
Hague is another town that will be
greatly benefited by the new service.
At present that place is served IN a
roundabout way that is as inconve-
nient US mail service could be.
This daily mail by the Milwaukee
will he Il great boon to IL good many
postotfices in Emmons county.
