Death of Patrick McNevin.

Patrick McNevin, one of the pioneer
settlers of Stevens county, and who
for many years lived on his farm just
west of the city, died at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. James J. Carey, in
ST. Paul, on Tuesday, Feb. 9th, from
old age. The funeral was held in ST..
Paul on Thursday, and the remains
brought here for interment the same
day. The remains were accompanied
here by James F. McNevin, of New
York, Mr.. and Mrs. Carey, of st. Paul,
and Thos J. McNevin, of Kansas City.
Patrick McNevin was born in Coun-
ty Claire, Ireland, on March 18th,
1928. He was married there in 1851
to Elizabeth Walsh, and to them were
born two children, John McNevin, of
st. Paul, and Elizabeth, now Mrs. Ed.
Sherwin, of this city. After the death
of his first wife, Mr.. McNevin was
married again in 1851 to Mary Noonan,
and to them were born six children,
James F. McNevin, of New York,
Margaret (Mrs. Carey, of st. Paul,
Alice (Mrs. See), deceased, Patrick,
deceased, Thos. J. McNevin, of Kan
sas City, and Catherine, (Mrs. D. J..
Campbell of Kansas City. Mrs. Me-
Nevin died at ST. Paul on Feb. 18th,
1908. %
Mr.. McNevin removed to this coun-
try sometime during the war, and set
tied at Delaware, Ohio, and served in
an Ohio regiment in the latter part of
the war. About 1884, he removed to
this state and settled on the farm
west of the city, where he lived until
he sold it six years ago, since which
time he has made his home in St.
Paul with his daughter, Mrs. Carey.
During the many years Mr.. McNevin
lived here, he was highly respected by
all who knew him as an upright, hard
working man, good citizen and a
good neighbor. His death will be
learned with regret by all who knew
him.

The following is credited to the
late Senator Hoar: At Fourth
of July celebration in a Canadian
town, where both English and
American guests were assembled, the
flags Of the two countries were used
in decorations. A frivolous young
English girl, loyal to the queen, bat
with no love for the Stars and Stripes,
exclaimed: "Oh what silly looking
thing the American flag is! 1t sug-
gests nothing but red striped candy"
eyes" replied Senator Hoar, sthe
kind of candy that has made every
body sick who ever tried to lick it,"
The worlds champion COW "Colan-
tha 4th's Johanna" has butter re-
cord of 1922 pounds of butter in one
week, or little over five pounds a
day. Her record for year is 1247. 8
lbs. of butter. On the average it
would take nine cows to produce as
much, and while there may be little
or no profit in the average cow there
is big profit in those that double,
treble or quadruple the average yield.
And there are a host of these better
COWS in existence and more being
bred and raised all the time. The
trouble is that there is quite as much
need for Improvement in the farmer
as in the herd. Not all can breed and
raise Colantha 4th Johannas, but
neither is it necessary to breed and
raise and milk average COWS, the
kind that yield so little. Of course it
requires brains and good judgment
and care and attention to make dairy
ing profitable and the man who hasn't
got these and the disposition to use
them in the right way will never be a
successful dairyman.-Montevideo
Leader.

Under the recent ruling by the
Pure food Commission all Bleached
F1ours will be thing of the past when
the present stocks are sold out.
While we have never believed that
the bleaching process made -four so
treated injurious to the human
stomach as food, we have always
claimed that in whitening the -four by
bleaching certain property was re-
moved or chemically changed so that
bread made from the bleached fours
would dry out quicker and would not
have as rich a taste because of this
treatment.
We shall therefore, until such time
as change is made in the ruling of
the department on bleaching, have to
give our customers an unbleached
-four. This while being of a trifie
yellower shade will, we know, make
better loaf of bread in other respects
Our prices notwithstanding the ad-
vance of 5 cents a bushel in wheat
within the past month have, SO far,
not been changed, New Gold being
still sold at $2.S5 a cwt. and in 500
pound lots or over at $2.75 a cwt.
We also shall continue our exchange
rate during February as promised.
We have the same report from all
our old and new customers, which is
sNew Gold -four cannot be beat in
Minnesota" Call and get our free
baking samples if you do not want to
buy until you try.
