Many Relatives and Friends Attended
Last Sad Rites for Popular Young
Rancher at Helix.
The special train ran to Helix
Thursday for the Zeuske funeral, was
the first and only time a special was
run from this city for such a purpose.
On the train which went to Helix 1870
people, friends and relatives OF the
deceased went north to assist in giving
an appropriate burial to one whom
they all had loved while he lived.
Many Of those on the train were
Woodmen and both the degree team
OF the w. o. w. and the young ladies'
team from the two Woodcraft circles
were in attendance.
The following extract from the
funeral address by Rev. Walter Payne
will show something of the esteem
in which the dead young man was
held
Edward Zeuske was known ia
many of you, was a man OF splendid
moral character. a dutlful son, low
ing husband and a kind father As
citizen he was beloved by ali who
knew him and his genial countenance
and happy smile shall be sadly missed
by those with whom he mingled. The
community at large enters into deep
sympathy with the widow, parents and
friends in their sad and unexpected
bereavement"

II there is the slightest doubt in the
minds Of any that Dandruff germs 80 not
exist, their belief is compelled hy the
fact that a rabbit innoculated with the
germs became bald in six weeks time.

WHEAT FED TO STEERS
BRINGS $500 PER BU9REl

An interesting experiment in steer feed
Ing was recently carried on at the WASH
ington State college experiment farm at
Pullman, says the Farmer. The steers, IL
in number, were purchased at random in
the Palouse country, and cost $25 to $50 a
head. They were cut In three lots and fed
different rattons. The total cost of 10
steers was SO. and they We're fed eight
tons of cat hay worth $50 a ton, 1885
pounds of corn fodder at $3.50 a ton. "a
tons OF wheat at SIT a ton: making the to-
tai cost OF the feed and steers $659.55. They
We're sold for SSH. rs. leaving a net profit Of
sl5l.2 20.
The steers were fed two months, all be-
ing fed alike for the first month. during
which time they were given three pounds
OF wheat daily. After the first month lots
two and three were fed six pounds OF
wheat each daily, while lot No. l continued
al three pounds each. During the month
in which the two lots We're fed six pounds
each daily. lot two gained 400 pounds,
while lot No. 3 gained ass pounds. Not No.
/ only gained go pounds during this period.
The net cash gain per head of lot No. 2
over lot No. l in this period was $3.50, with
but three pounds of wheat more daily. This
is AN increase of more than 10 cents q day,
or 10 cents for three pounds of wheat.
which is at the rate of 81 a bushel for
wheat fed to steers in this way.

From the Grand Rapids Press.
The American public is long SUFFERING

ton. 1t will, without a n1urmur, pay its
good money for cigars made out OF hemp
and corn husks, for whisky containing to-

good old buckwheat pancake.
The buckwheat cake is one of the four

struggling colonial dependency to tn.
proud eminence of q world power with a
navy that can sail around the world with
out losing a gunner and with n congress
that can appropriate a billion dollars a
session without turning a hair. 1t has
ihelped make US the sturdiest race since
the ancient vikings and it has given US
the courage to look the whole world in the
face, confident OF our physical and mem

m to throw off the yoke of the on

SOME THOUGHTS ON CULTURE

Guglielmo FeIrer0 in New York Times.
Just now j am particularly interested in
the fate of classical studies in our Eu-
ropean schools. 1T is useless to deny the
fact that the study of Latin and Greek
with us is losing it's hold, and that it is
practically doomed. And 1 think that it
Is right that it should be so, if the study
Of these languages is to be continued, as
ii has been in the past. from a purely
pathological standpoint. Why should stu
dents waste their time over Homer and
Greek drarnatis1s and philosophers, or
Horace and Virgil If these studies are
pursued merely as an exercise in abstruse
questions of pathology? If there is nothing
more than %pht!ology in Greek and Latin.
these languages will not retain, nor will
they deserve to retain. their commanding
place In the schools.
But l believe that there is more than
that in them. 1 think that they could be
made to supply a great need in the aes-
thetic culture of our educated, or we
might better call them our professional
classes. There would be no practical gain
In teaching Homer or Virgil to the man
who works with his hands,, or to the clerk
IN a business office. But for the profess
sional man, this man to whom a %cultiva-
ton OF the aesthetic faculties is a matter
OF comparative necessity, I hin the
study of the classics for their own sake
and not from a mere biological motive Is
OF great Importance. II the lawyer. the
physician, the scientist, the man OF let
ters. confines himself simply to those
studies which bear directly on his special
field. there will be lacking a certain soli-
da'ity among the educated classes which
VIII react unfavorably upon the degree OF
general culture to which they and through
them the nation at large might attain.
The classics studied, as l nave said, in a
new light. would supply this connecting
INK among educated people and thus
bring them more closely and helptully to-
gether. The idea has already been taken
up by the educational league in Paris.
