Gold in England.

London.-Christmas of 1906 will be
memorable for the heaviest snowstorm
the United Kingdom has experienced
in many years. In the northern coun-
ties of England and in Scotland the
snow was accompanied by great gales.
There was an average fall of from four
to six inches, which under heavy gales
drifted badly and worked serious him

There were many smsSl wrecks along

NORTH DAKOTA TO CHICAGO.

The following story, From North
Dakota to Chicago and the Interna-
tional," is from the phe of N. S.
French in Northwestern Agricultural:
Not very far for travellers whose
journeyings encircle the earth; but
to one whose eyes have looked upon
the same section of Dakota priarie for
more than a score of years, quite a
jump. And from the Chicago that
first saw in 1850, to the present home
of the greatest stock show on earth is
also a great change, though half a
century Is not much in the life Of
such historic cities asssRome or Da-
maScus.
But for a city that doubles her pop
ulation and her business about every
decade, flfty-siX years Is quite period
of time. Chicago stands in class by
herself and is scarcely comparable
with any other city, either ancient or
modern.
A daylight ride across some of the
much advertised cutover lands of
northern Minnesota and Wisconsin
satisfied me that few farmers who
have once turned the mile long fur
rows of Dakota prairie, will ever
care to go into the stump-pulling
business. Through mixed farming,
with good dairy cows forming over
half of the mixture, this land will
some day be very valuable and its
roots and grasses, changed on the
milk, will ultimately help to swell the
value Of the product of this wonder
full Northwest that, taken as whole,
tc NJ tho ofoct Srr
countries on earth.
Thousands of healthy, happy homes
will no doubt be built up on these
lands and the day may come when the
northern portion of these two great
states will equal the southern por-
lions, commercially at least.
AS all the papers agree that this
was the greatest show ever held, it
Is perhaps enough for me to note
few of the changes that score of
years have brought. Twenty years
ago the Shorthorns, then sometimes
called Durhams, were in the lead, with
the Herefords a close second and the
two together, as then shown, were
about the whole thing.
Now, we have three other distinct
breeds: two black and one red, all
polled through years of selection and
breeding; while the polled Durhams,
and even the hornless Herefords are
making a good showing among those
who have no more use for horns.
Blackjack, the grade Angus steer
fed by the Iowa Agricultural College,
was easily the champion of the show;
and many other blacks, both Angus
and Galloways, crowded up close to
the front for all choice prizes. The
Purdue University of Indiana, also
took some first prizes in the feeder
class. This year as last, in the case

may say that I have no doubt what
ever as to the eventuaI outcome of the
trial"
In connection with the case and In
cidentally, 1t is interesting to note that
Major Murphy has surrounded himself
with three attorneys who wear the
title of judge. His leading counsel,
M. S. Lauder, was on the bench for
several terms, and Attorney Palda was
appointed to the bench in Ward county
to fill vacancy. w. H. Barnett, when
not referred to as states attorney, is
known as Judge Barnett in remem-
brance of his early experiences in Far,

WORRIED

Says He Will Unbosom Himself

the Jury Soon.
Especial to The Evening Times.l
Fargo, Feb. 5.-The Murphy case
was continued today and it Is expected
will go to the jury tomorrow. 1t has
been intimated that the defense would
be willing to submit the case to the
jury without argument, but this would
not meet with the approval of the
prosecution and it is not probable that
the case will be given TO the jury until
Tuesday afternoon at least. j..
For fifteen days the case has been
in progress and never before in Cass
county has a case been as sIrenuously
contested on both sides. Every scrap
of evidence introduced has been scrut-
inized by the attorneys on both sides,
and careful record has been pre-
served for use in case of an appeal.
Major Murphy has been defended by
able counsel. Judge Lauder, who has
had charge of the case for the defense
has indicated that he is an able trial
lawyer, farseeing and cautious. He
has been ably assisted by Judge Palda
and Barnett C Richardson. Major
Murphy has rendered no little assist
ance to his attorneys and the con-
fident air he has maintained all dur
ing the trial has indicated that he has
little doubt of the result.
For the state Assistant United States
Attorney Townsend and John E. Green
have conducted the case in court. The
former has conducted the cross-exam-
ination of witnesses and many of the
telling points brought out have been
suggested by Mr.. Green who was as
ISOLATED with States Attorney MCGEE
in the preparation of the case against
Major Murphy.
During the trial of the case per-
sistent report has been current to the
by detectives in the employ of the
state. Whether the report is true or
not it is impossible to ascertain. The
attorneys for the state have denied it
positively although it has been adj
mitted that certain persons not direct
ly connected with the case have been
under surveillance.
MAJOR Murphy did not return to
Minot Saturday night, but announced
that he would remain in the city until
his case is finally disposed of.
In spite of the confidence of the state
that strong case has been made out,
Major Murphy is confident of an ac-
quittal, and it was only along this line
that he would speak for publication.
For years political leader in the
most strenuous county in the state,
Major Murphy is the custodian of
more information which might be de-
scribed as Juicy" than any man in the
state and he has indicted that at the
conclusion of the trial he would be
ready and willing to unburden himself
to some extent.

/, The Butteru,aker.

The buttermaker In charge Of a
creamery where the raw material is
hauled to the factory by the farmers
is IN position to practically regulate
the quality Of that raw material. He
Is in position to judge as to the kind
of milk or cream he should receive,
and can generally get It in proper
condition IL he knows how to go about
it. 57E
He must know how to deal with
men, having good knowledge Of hui
man nature. The average farmer,
busy with his work upon the farm, is
inclined to deliver poor milk or cream
If the buttermaker will accept 1t, be-
cause 1t is less work to deliver that
kind. He needs some one to check UP
his work, and tell him where improve
ments in his methods should be-
brought about. This is not theory.
Go to creamery which has been In
charge of an incompetent, careless
buttermaker for several years and
note conditions. Then go to the.
creamery that has been in charge of
a first-class man. for several years
and note conditions there AT one
you will find the raw material coming
to the creamery in poor condition, and
at the other you will find the other
kind. Is 1t reasonable to suppose that
one community is made up of more
clearly people? No. There is diff
ference between localities of dairy
men, but not great enough to ac-
count for SO much difference as will
be noticed In the cases mentioned.
How is buttermaker to bring
about this more desirable condition Of
affairs? It is a difficult question to
answer, and no remedy will suffice
for all conditions. AS a general rule,
kindness and reason will accomplish
more than the big stick" The but
termaker must be clearly in his work
in order that a good example may be
set before his patrons. He must be
honest and straightforward In all his
dealings with them SO as to gain their
confidence. He must be q man among
them.
He must appeal to their sense Of
duty toward their creamery, toward
the dairy industry, and their duty as
citizens. He must reason with them
to the effect that better milk and
cream makes better butter and better
butter means better prices.
The buttermaker Is in better posi-
ton to control the quality of the raw
material than any other man. The,
creamery inspector may be Of assist
ance to him occasionally, but he
should not be depended upon. His
visits are notregular enough to secure
good quality, no matter how good
work he may do. His work is more
concerned with forcing the delivery
of better milk or cream by those pa
irons who can not be reached other
wise.
The great majority of creamery pa
irons. however. do not have to be
forced into delivering good product
The other buttermaker is the man to
carry out that plan. The average
American citizen does not like to be
forced into anything. Honey will
catch more flies than vinegar. Rea-
son, kindness and square dealing will
make more clearly, careful creamery
patrons than threats or bulldozing
methods.
