PROSPERITY

Cleveland, O., Feb. 10.-Between

Mclean FOR
THELEC|SLATURE

L. Mclean, formerly of Wenat-
chee, may represent his district in
the next Legislature. Concerning
his candidacy the Spokane Chron-
icle says: "a aars7
One of the strong candidates who
has entered the field for legislative
honors is l.. Mclean of Otis Orchard,
who aspires to represent the Third
Legislative District i'll the house, as
republican successor of R. A. Hutch
inson, who is a candidate for the SEN
ate.
Mr.. Mclean is pioneer Of Spo-
kane county, having come here in
1882, since which time he has been
prominently identified with public
fairs and has aided in the develop
ment and upbuilding of the country.
He has served for five years as a
trustee of the Chamber of Com
merce, and was recently reelected TO
that important position. He is presi-
dent of the Spokane Canal company,
which has large holdings east of the
city, and is also chief engineer of
the Methow Canal company.
While Mr.. Mclean makes his
home at OTIS Orchard, he spends
much of his time in the city, where
most of his interests are located.
Thus far he is the only man who
has announced himself as a candi
date from this district, except J. B.
Gilbert of Rockford, who seeks re-
election, but who, as there are two
to re-elect, will not be an opponent
of Mr.. Mclean. The only C/her can
didate who has been spoken of from
this district is Elmer E. Hall, who
has not yet made any formal declara-
tion that he will enter the race.

AMERICAN IN CANADA

The American farmer is practical
man; there is no cleverer-headed cit
izen in the world, and moreover he Is
frankly honest. When he finds in
Canada a system of Jurisprudence
under which law is everywhere r.,
spected, when he learns that Canada
has never seen lynching, that Cana
dian history tells of no Indian wars,
he is very willing to acknowledge
that there is little here he would
wish to change. The fact is that in
his general views and attitude toward
life no one is more like Canadian
than an American. The fact that
.hey are subjected to similar envir-
O1ment and to the same broad
sweeping continental forces readily
explains how by mereT crossing
north or south an imaginary bound
ary line Canadian and American
alike pass from one citizenship to
another with far less friction than
an Englishman can be transplanted
10 either American or Canadian soil.

be some improvement in simplifying

STORM SWFfPSTHE NORTHWEST
Snow, Sleet aad Cold Cause Discomfort
and Damage-Shipping on Lake
Suffers.

st. Paul, April 29.-Covering thou
sands of square miles, a belated
storm brought winter back to the up
per Mississippi valley, carrying snow,
sleet and cold and bringing discomfort
and Inconvenience to thousands of
people, with more or less loss in
some sections, and holding a menace
TO the fruit crop of Minnesota.
Railways suffered somewhat, and
trains from the west were delayed
more or less.
A snow storm of almost hurricane
velocity swept over the towns along
Lake Michigan, doing considerable
damage to property and shipping at
Marinette, Wis The fishermen's
quarters in that town were inundated
by tidal wave. A boat at anchor in
the river was driven high and dry on
the beach, while it was reported that
the schooner Rob Roy was driven
ashore near Cedar river. The water
in the river receded somewhat during
the day, the wind veering from the
northeast to the south.
One of the heaviest snow storms in
its .'story was experienced at the
Head of the Lakes. The seas rolled
in fury during Sunday night, being
more troubled than they have been
for many day. Some concern was
felt over vessels which were caught
on Lake Superior.

WISCONSIN CHEESE GOOD.
George J. kust, NeiIlsviIle, Gets 96.25
as HIGH Score in Exhibit.

The highest score given any Of the
twenty-four entries in the University
of Wisconsin dairy school cheese ex-
hibit this month was that of George
J. Kust of Neillsville, who was given
1925 for his cheddar cheese. Other
high scores were as follows: J. l..
Zehren, Marion, 94.83; F. J. Harder,
Hilbert, 1886, and W. J. Schoopke
Welcome, 1896 for cheddar cheeses,
and Robert Kohl, Knowles, 96.15 for
highest score in the brick cheese
class. George L. Render, Coon Val
ley, scored $3.50 in this class and c..
F. Brinkman of the same place, took
third place with 1856 No score went
below 1915, and the average was
92.93. Only two exhibits fell below
80. The highest moisture content in
any exhibit was 1872, and the lowest
was "a, giving an average of 1868. The
chief flavor defects this month were
acidity from overripe milk or starter
and unclean from unsanitay handling
of the milk. 1t is much more difficult
to make uniform cheese at this
time Of year than at any other, as the
milk supply is not regular Mr.. M.
Michels, in charge of the scoring ex-
hibitions, has fifteen years Of expe-
rience in owning and operating COM
bined butter and cheese factories, and
sets forth the advantages and disad-
vantages of such combined factories
as follows: The advantages include
the fact that either butter or cheese
can be made to suit patrons; larger
patronage may be gained; winter
dairying is encouraged; others do
not gain grounds in the same terri
tory so readily, and patrons raise bet
ter and more young stock than when
only cheese is made in the factory
Among the disadvantages are high
cost of building and equipment; the
extra cost of ice and supplies to be
kept on hand; the additional help re-
quired; difficulty Of finding maker
with experience in the manufacture
of both, and the difficulty of market
inc both butter and cheese at the best
advantage. He has found the more
profitable method to be to make
cheese in the summer and butter IN
the other three seasons.
