In the creamery districts

In the creamery districts Of
Minnesota the farmers \ in order TO
secure quick returns and small pro-
fits have hit upon the plan of selling
every drop of milk and knocking
their bull calves on the head. Is it
possible to imagine a more unprotit-
able way of conducting the farming
business? 1t is a condition of things
which can not fail to have a baneful
effect on the live stock industry.
The practice is not only reprehen-
sible fbom an economic standpoint
but is likely to have bad influence
on the rising generation who are apt
to receive the notion that bull
calves are Of no more economic value
on a farm than bull dogs. At South
Saint Paul every bull calf, like every
hog, has It's commercial value. The
sooner the farmers realize that it Is
batter for them to sell calves than
to kill them, the better for the.live
stock industry Of the state.

Jews Or MINNESOTA,
MINNESOTA.

Minneapolis-May IL, the state Of
Minnesota was so years old. On that
day, fifty years ago the telegraph sta
ton nearest to Minneapolis was
Prairie du Chen, Wis. The news Of
the passage of the bill by congress
for the admission of the state was
flashed over the wires from Washing
ton to the little Wisconsin town only
a few minutes after President James
Buchanan had attached his signature
to the document making it a law, but
the people most interested were not
aware of their good fortune until two
days later, when the steamer Mil
waukee, at 6 a. m. arrived in st. Paul
bringing both official and private ad-
vices of the suspicious event. The
newspapers of the twin cities issued
"extras" that day, and followed these
on the 18th with liberal extracts from
papers published down the river"
brought on the afternoon of the 18th,
by the steamer Gray Eagle.
The first session of the state legis-
lature began on the first Wednesday
of December at the capitol in St. Paul,
five months before the state was ad-
mitted to the Union. In that month,
Henry NJ Rice and James Shields
were elected United States senators.
On Jan. 20, 1853, Senator Stephen A.
Douglas submitted bill to the Unit
ed States senate for the admission of
Minnesota into the union. On April
Z, the bill passed the senate with only
three dissenting votes, was shortly
concurred in by the house of repre-
sentatives and on May II, 1853, the
president affixed his signature to it.
The population of the new state
was 150,037. The state officers, who
had been elected in October of the
previous year, assumed their duties
on May "a, 1858. They were: H. H
Sibley, governor; William Holcomb,
lieutenant governor; Francis Baason,
secretary of state; George W. Arm
strong, treasurer; w. F. Dunbar, au-
ditor; Charles H. Berry, attorney gen.
eral; Lafayette Emmett, chief justice;
Charles E. Flandreau and Isaac At
water, associate justices. The clerk
of the supreme court was Jacob J.
Noah, and the reporter, Harvey OFF,
Ger; James Shields and Henry NJ.
Rice, democrats, United States SEN
ators; J. NJ. Cavanaugh, democrat,
representative in congress from the
first district, and w. w. Phelps, demo
crat, from the second district.
