| spent a portion of last week at
Sioux Falls in attendance at the an.
nual convention of the South Dakota
B~uttermakers' and Dairymens' conven-
ton and learned a whole lot of things.
Among others the fact that Commits
siOner Wheaton has and is doing a
wonderful work in connection with
promoting the dairy industry in this
state and is heartily in accord with
those engaged in the business. Last
year the dairy output in this state
brought us some eight million dollars
and when you consider that our neigh
Dor state, Minnesota, took III ninety
million from the same source you will
readily see what a field and what an
opportunity we have for promoting
this industry. The work has been
handicapped by lack of funds. this
state allowing its commissioner less
than eight thousand dollars whereas
Minnesota appropriates sixty thous-
and, and the marvel is that Mr..
Wheaton has been enabled to do as
much as he has.

True ECONOMY.

Now that retrenchment and re-
form are becoming the cardinal
principles Of the thoughtful and
thrifty housewives of the land. the
industry of manufacturing home
made preserves and putting up
vegetables for winter use. is he
coming more in vogue. Home
manufactured goods of this kind
are purer. cleaner and more pala-
table thar those made by the
great canning and preserves fac
tories. Their output is more TO,
quantity than quality. as general
rule.
There are thousands of indus
trious housewives in city as well
as country. who put up delicious
j.llies. pickles. vegetables. catsup,
and other sauces for home con-
sumption and winter use. during
the season when the various fruits
are fresh and the gardens give
forth their fruits of the ground.
With an abundant supply and the
necessary ingredients handy. the
employment of few idle hours
will work wonders aad amply re-
pay the labor expended in the
deliciousness of the fruits of in
dustry. as we'll as wonderfully
decrease the household expenses
OF the family. particularly in fam
lilies of moderate means. There
are numerous young matrons in
the cities who fill the duties of
life in social circles. keep busy the
flying hours. attend to household
duties. including cooking ard
domestic duties, and then enjoy
the task of preparing delicacies
for the coming of the winter
months. And there is many a
rural maiden who improves each
shining hour by her thrift and in
dustry to tighten the household |
expenses. These are the bus,
bees of the home. albeit ever SO
humble; the fair jewels that shine
in every niche of life, the pride
and JOY of the mansion and the
humble cottage. the hope and
light of the households. without
any of the characteristics of the
drones who are but useless appen-
dages in the great hive of busy
humanity.

The meeting of the Farmers
Union this weekin New Orleans

Memphis. taken in connection
with the tendency to diversity
farm products in the weevil infest-
ed sections of the cotton States,
will have a very perCeptible bear
ing upon the production of the
leading staple of this section.
Either the price of cotton must
advance. or the growers will be
compelled to curtail the acreage
and resort to other products to
make their labor remunerative.
No farmer will consider himself
competed to expend his labor OIL
the production of a crop that
brings him no profit. and makes
his industry nullity. so far as the
expense incurred is concerned.
