HAVE A BOAT RIDE.
MankatO Commercial College Students
and Faculty Enjoy the Outing.

One of the pleasantest social events
in the history of the Mankatc Com
mercial College took place yesterday
when the entire school of students
and faculty went on an excursion
trip on the Steamer Lorene up the
river to the beautiful state park at
Minneopa Falls. The boat was char

Teton, and left the wharf at Man.

cursionists with a bountiful supply of
| lunch and lemonade that had been
provided by the students.
The trip up the river to the falls,
distance of about six miles, was
most delightful one. The day had
been very warm in the school room
and the change to the delightful
breeze on the river was very pleasant
and refreshing. Upon landing at the
park the refreshments were spread up
on the beautiful lawn under the shade
trees ON the bluffs, overlooking the
Minnesota, and everyone seemed to en-
joy himself to the fullest extent. AT

proper. The recent rains had caused
a heavy flow of water to go over the
falls and they never looked more beau
tiful and interesting than they did
yesterday.
For several hours the party amused
themselves, walking about, viewing the
magnificent scenery, climbing the
bluffs, lounging about on the seats
and on the lawn, taking snapshots
of the scenery and of each other, wad-
ing about in the cool, rushing waters
of the Minneopa, and enjoying them
selves generally. At dark the whistle
of the steamer, one-half mile away
lying at anchor in the Minnesota, call

were reluctant to leave such a cool.

to get left all took hike for the

The journey down the river to Man

enjoyed the outing immensely, many
expressions being to the effect that it
was the most delightful social affair

with the hope that such an outing
can be made an annual event.

the fact that when iSchwandt first en-
gagged in business there he made
few deposits of cash in the bank, but
toward the last he kept no bank ac-
count. Ledbeter sent man to Win
throp to investigate affairs, but this
man could not find out anything that
had bearing on the business deals
of Schwandt. Ledbeter claimed to
friend in Redwood Falls that Schwandt
had beaten him out of between $4,000
or $4,000. He mad threatened to bring
suit against Schwandt for this sum.
1t does not require much of mathe-
matician to figure out that Ledbeter
lost out when he purchased the shabby
stock in Wisconsin,; that he realized
nothing from sales while the stock was
at Winthrop; that the $1,000 and $500
more were used to pay bills for new
goods that came to the Winthrop store,
and finally he was asked to pay $500
for other new goods that were added
to the stock while it was at Winthrop.
Looks as if Ledbeter was trimmed.
While Ledbeter vas at Redwood
Falls he sent the sheriff after Schwandt,
had him brought to Redwood, and
testy interview took place between the
two men. Schwandt, however, refused
to give up any information that would
throw light on the business transacted
by him at Winthrop. 1t was Man
kato man that persuaded Ledbeter to
trade the land for the stock of goods.
Schwandt urged the deal also. Mrs.
Ledbeter was anxious that her husband
should engage in the mercantile bua-
ness

ANOTHER SENSATION SPRUNG
Tom Taggart's Name Brought Into
the GinqIes Case.

Chicago, July THE name of Tom
Taggart of French Lick Springs, Ind.
former chairman of the Democratic
national committee, was brought into
the record Of the Ella Gingles trial
In Judge Brentano's court here.
The young Irish lacemaker, on
cross-examination, had told of an al
legged search of her room by Miss
Agnes Barrette and the late Mrs.
Cecilia Kenyon looking for lace which
Miss Barrette asserted that Miss Gin
giles had stolen. This brought the
story around to Miss Gingles' visit to
Miss Barrette's room at the yelling
ton hotel on subsequent occasion
when Miss Gingles, it is alleged, was
forcibly disrobed by Miss Barrette and
Mrs. Kenyon.

no NOT ROOT FOR MISCHIEF.

IA great many people seem to think
that hogs root merely for mischief,
but such is not the case, They root
for alkali, which they find in the soil
and which aids them in digestion
Nature helps them out in this way
when man neglects them.
In the amount of carbonaceous
foods that we feed our hogs there is
not sufficient phosphate for them.
Anything that we throw to the hogs
whether lime, bones or oyster shells,
seems to be greatly relished and
seems to help them in digesting their
other feeds and promoting their gen.
eral health.-Farmers Home Jour

FEEDING YOUNG LAMBS.

"a good fockmaster holds that for
young lambs wheat bran is most ex-
cellent to begin with, and after they
become stronger the bran should be
mixed with cornmeal in equal parts.
He says that oatmeal, or oats when
they can eat it, should be added to
balance the ration, for oats is nearly
a balanced food itself. After growing
little they will shell and crack their
sWn corn, If given to them on the cob.
I've lambs that are to remain on the
farm should not be forced SO fast.

HOW OLD FOR sIREs.

There is a mistaken notion among
some breeders as to the value of old
sires among horses and other live
stock. 1t has been noted that good
stations If kept right are valuable for
very many years. The Breeders Ga
zett9 on this question well says:
Breeders who are constantly chang
ing gsires without giving any of them
fair opportunity to demonstrate
their reproductive usefulness cannot
expect to achieve distinction. 1t does
not pay to swap horses in the middle
of stream. When a sire is under
trial his owner is in that aquatic pre-
dicament until definite results have
been secured. 1t is then time to de-
eide whether to sell or retain him.
Sires that measure up to reason
ables mems expectations should be
kept in service as long as they live.
Not many can gain lifetime posts,
but the few that exhibit in their prog
eny marked breeding powers should
not be sold or retired except under
extraordinary circumstances.
BY using sires moderately and man
aging them according to the best
methods they can be kept in service
for much longer periods than are or
dinafily occupied. An Illinois breed
ers experience is to the point. He is
getting satisfactory results from the
use of boar that is seven years old
and a draft stallion that is eighteen.
Bulla, stations and boars are numer~
Gus hat have served out long lives.
II American breeders are to APP
proximate the highest standards of
excellence in their stock they cannot
hold too tenaciously to sires that have
made good. Nor can they be too
careful in their management of such
sires. In all classes and breeds of
stocks the culls of both sexes should
be eliminated as soon as possible, but
the great breeders should enjoy conf
