A. j. MCGUIRE SPEAKS TO
FARMERS AT DEER LAKE
Advises Farmers to Raise the Dairy Cow-Mr Mc(uire
Does Not Believe the Beef Cow as Profitable as
the Dairy Cow.

Raise dairy COWS; they are the
money-makers which pay the mort
gage off the farm and make the
homesteader an independent
farmer"
This was the text of an address
delivered by A. ]. MCGUIRE, super
intendent of the Northeast Expert
mental Farm at Grand Rapids,
who spoke to a large number of
farmers and their wives, Saturday
evening, in the school house at
Deer Lake, in Liberty township.
Professor Mcclure had been in
vited to Deer Lake by r. c..
Spooner, president of the Donald
Land & Lumber company, for the
purpose of consulting with the
farmers of that vicinity as to the
advisability of orga nizing a farmers
cooperative creamery company and
building creamery.
Mr.. Mcclure arrived at Wilton
from Grand Rapids in the afternoon
and was met at the depot by Donald
Spooner, son of R. C.. Spooner, and
taken by a team to the spacious
Spooner home on the banks of Deer
Lake.
The public meeting was called to
order in the school house at 8
O'Clock, and the farmers and their
wives filled every available seat,
many standing at the rear in the
hallway.
Donald Spooner acted as chair
man of the meeting.
The audience sang "America,"
after which Mr.. Spooner spoke brief
of the success which has attended
the efforts of Clearwater county
farmers in dairying and establishing
and maintaining creamerias, then
introducing Superintendent Mcclure
who was given a hearty receptio n.
Mr.. Mcclure stated that he did not
care to be introduced as a pro-
fessor''-in fact, he would rather
not be.
The speaker stated that he had
come before them for the purpose of
demonstrating to the farmers pres
ent that dairying was by far the
most remunertive farming in which
to engage. What he was about to
tell had been engaged from actual
experience on the state agricultural
farm. He had found different con-

JUDGE STANTON HOLDS A
TERM OF COURT AT BAGLEY
Important Ditch Cases We're Heard and Submitted for
Decision Of the Court. q. Ferris Asks for
New Trial.

Bagley, Aug. 4..-(Special to
Pioneer. )-Judge Stanton held a
special term of court here yeste rday
at which a number of cases and
motions were heard.
The forty-two ditch cases which
have been pending for some time
were taken up, both the state and
objectors agreeing that the facts in
each of the forty-two cases were
similar therefore but one of these
cases were tried.
County Attorney E. T. Tiets-
worth appeared for the state and
W. E. Rowe of Crookston appeared
for the objectors.
This litigation is the result of
the county commissioners ordering
a large ditch in the north end of the
county and assessing the property
benefited for the same.
A number of the objectors con-
tended that they had not made
final proof therefore this land could
not be assessed. The case caused
considerable interest in this part of
the county and papers showing the

Found Dead in Bed,

Deputy Coroner Lahr returned
Sunday night from Blackduck, where
he was called to investigate the
death of William Leahy, who was
found dead in bed Saturday after
noon on bis claim, near that place.
Mr.. Lahr decided that death was
due to natural causes and notified
Dan Leahy, brother of the deceas-
ed, who lives at Greenville, Wis.
Mr.. Leahy passed through the city
last evening on his way to Blackjack
to take charge of the remains of his
brother.

ditions in the northeastern part of
the state where he was located Cat
Grand Rapids) then prevailed in St.
Paul. He had worked steadily for
two years on the northeastern expert
ment farm, and he was now pre-
pared to combat the statement made
by any man to the effect that we in
the northeastern part of the state
have not as good farming country
as is to be found anywhere in
Minnesota.
Mr.. Mcclure deplored the fact
that men were moving away
from this sandy soil with the
impression that it was valueless for
agricultural purposes. Look at the
crops on the experimental farm,
where the soil ives practically the
same kind of sand he was proud of
the crops there. A poor farmer will
fail on sandy soil in about five
years, and some kind of an agri-
culturist will fail in from ten to
fifteen years on clay soil-it was all
in the farmer and the method he
used. A poor farmer will fail any,
where.
There are more mortgages on the
farms in the Red River Valley today
than there are on the farms in
Clearwater county," said Mr..
Mcclure. And the speaker
attributed that fact to the poor
farming of the Red River Valley
farmers. Over west they crop too
much in rotation; while in Clear
water county the farmers are engag-
ing in dairying and were making a
success of their creameries.
Mr.. Mcclure pleaded with those
present not to adopt raising beef
cattle, as there was absolutely no
profit in the undertaking. He be-
lieved that the beef critter was
detriment to the country. 1t costs
as much to produce a pound of
dressed beef as it does to produce
pound of butter. Beef sold for
| S cents per pound; butter for rs
cents per pound. At this ratio,
the same labor on. butter will pro-
duce five times as much money as
beef.
According to Mr.. Mcclure, the
beef industry is practically con-
trolled by very few men-they
could be counted on the fingers of
The Bemidji daily pioneer., 1908-08-04

the clover would be 80 cents. He
also advocated the raising of root
crops and fodder corn for feed.
Five tons of roots would produce as
much milk as one ton of bran and
shorts. The bran and shorts would
cost $25 per ton, and the roots 81.
Carrots and mangles were also good
food.
In feeding, no more should be
given to the cows than they will
clean up nicely. In feeding grain,
at the experimental farm, Mr.. Nc
Guire feeds to each cow two-hfths
of the number of pounds of grain
to the number of pounds of milk
the COW produced. Three pounds
of milk would be produced for one
pound of feed. Roots would cut the
feed in two if fed to the COWS.
The farmer who attempts to
farm without COW will fail. The
cow pays off the mortgage, and is
the best asset a farmer can possess. :"
MI. Mcclure advocated the organi-
cation of cooperative creamery
companies among the trainers, and
cited the great success which had
at once attended the creamery
project at Bagley and elsewhere in
Clearwater county
The farmers present at the meet
ing were questioned-as to the number
of COWS that were owned within a
radius of Deer Lake, Mr.. Mcclure
told his hearers that he would not
advise them to start a creamery
unless they had 5000 COWS in the
territory mentioned. It was agreed
that there were not that number of
COWS in the immediate vicinity. He
said that a good creamery would
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000,
and the expense of running the
same would be 81 per day, with the
creamery making so lbs. of butter
per day being &c per pound with the
expense of butter per pound decreas-
ing as the amount produced increas-
ed.
A general discussion of the situa-
tion followed, and it was decided
that it was not advisable to start a
creamery project at present, but
that an organization should be
formed for the purpose of working
up interest in the dairy industry and
for the general bettering of the con-
ditions of the farmer in that portion
of Beltrami county.
The following were elected as the
first officers of the organization:
Donald Spooner, president; Ole Jac-
OLSON, vice presidents Louis Hanson,
secretary.
One of the objects of the new as
sociation will be to devise a means
for getting better prices for what
cream is produced.
