not expect to make fortune in
month or six weeks.
The Washington climate is one of
the best in the country for SQUAD
breeding. Back east birds have a
hard time producing young during the
bitter cold spells; out here there is no
such danger My Homers were busy
every month the past winter and my
losses of young could not have been
much less. There were not a half
dozen nights during the winter when
kept the loft windows closed.
y
The impression exists among some
SQUAD raisers that it is fatal to birds
to feed them any green stuff. l have
not found it so. My birds are given
water cress and bits of lettuce occas-
ionally. and they never suffer from
the green stuff. In fact it is q dainty
that they very much enjoy and the
effect upon them is good. Do not feed
too much of it but an occasional feed
will be appreciated Pigeons must
have variety.
From now until fall it will be good
thing not TO teed TOO much cIdcheu
corn. The warm weather is not con-
ducive to corn feeding. 1t is fatten-
ing and very heating and every third
feed of cracked corn is plenty.
Be sure to weed out the breeders
that produce the small squads, even
if they are fast breeders. 1t is COM
mon thing to find such breeders among
the best of Homers. Far better to
save a pair of promising youngsters
than to keep feeding pair that pro-
duce small squads.
AS soon as you find the warm season
coming on watch the house for lice
There is no reason why they should
be in the loft if the birds have plenty
of fresh bathing water, loft is kept
clean, plenty of lime is scattered
about, and tobacco stems used.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has prov
en- catarrh to be constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
featured by F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on
the market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They Of
fer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and

In Early DnYS.

Among Grand Forks visitors of the

E. Winter of Langdon. N. D., here
over Monday night and leaving yes
terday for Brandon. Man. Both these
gentlemen are real estate men and are
among the early day settlers of Cav
alier county. Mr.. Dickson first located
at Langdon in 80 and the year follow
ing he remembers having shot several
elk and antelope on the land where
Milton now stands. In those days
Langdon was a mere two-or-three
building town, without railroad con-
nections and no way of getting mail
excepting by stage. Now it is pros
porous little city of about 1000 with
municipal improvements such as
water works and electric light. opera
house, etc. In the early eighties both
Mr.. Dickson and Mr.. Winter followed
the pillow but now they enjoy compet-
encies of sufficient size to permit their
taking life comparatively easy.

Home and Farm

obliged to sell cream can often do
better by changing from one plant to
another, always asking cash for every
can on delivery, which is practically
the common plan of all since the Cold
Storage company went under, with SO
many unpaid debts. ID.
OF course cream will vary in test a.
little from day to day or week to
week, but on an average ten gallons of
cream this week should bring about
as much as ten gallons did last week.
But don't turn the calves with the
cows until you have tried some or all
OF these plans, unless-which may be
the case-yOu have COWS that are
only fit to suckle calves, and hardly
that. The dairyman that succeeds is
the one who watches the closest, not
only the breeding and the feeding of
his cows but all of the business deals
and methods whereby his product is
mearketed. AS to telling where to sell,
each seller must be his own Judge.
Directions Not Needed.
Our enquiries as to honest cream
buyers are no doubt from those who
can and do furnish good cream. But
there are others. A few directions
~ w AAAAAnAA31 OSSS al AClS 6ltCu uut
they are hardly needed. We have all
read directions galore. The idea is
that those who follow directions get
no more at present than those who
send in any kind of stuff. This should
be remedied. and may be by grading.
But before srying too loudly for hon
est cream testers and buyers, the
farmer himself should "get honest"
and always furnish an honest product.
Then and not before will we have the
right to demand and expect honesty
In others. Wrong is wrong whatever
the excuse for it. but right wrongs no
man. F.
To Be Kept I'm Mind.
Don't keep the milk can in the sta
BILE while milking.
Don't milk five or six COWS before
straining. Each cows milk should be
emptied as soon as drawn.
Cool the cream quickly after milk
ing. This may be done by setting in
cold water and frequently stirring
after straining. 4e4
Clean the cows thoroughly before
beginning to milk.
Feed hay or any other feed that
may cause dust after milking. not
before.

by in this term of court and if neces-

count will be utilized. as he is sure
he has the right party. In the first
trial week ago the man was ac-
quilted on the charge of robbing the
roomers of the Western hotel and this
second trial is based upon the pre-
sumption that he robbed the Nelson
house the same night 1t will be re-
called that Appelby, together with a
companion, were gathered in on the
night of the robbery and his companion
broke away from the guardian of the
law and left Appelby to face the
charges alone.
