at work in Indianapolis and that they
will prosecute every dealer who leaves
his berries uncovered. They will
first tackle the larger cities Of the
state and then the smaller ones.

A Butter Making Senator.

Senator NJ N. Johnson, in talk
to the farmers at the Ward county
fair, told them how he made $4,000
during the past ten years, making
and selling butter. The Senator evi-
IDENTIFY knows the secret Of the sue
cess of diversified farming In North
Dakota, and has been educated in
the school of Hard Knocks" He
says that for one thing, he sees that
his men are careful with the milk.
ing This is the first consideration;
before doing the milking the men
are required to wash the cows bags
and then cleanse their hands. This
takes but a little time, and insures
milk that is perfectly clean. You
can't make good clean butter from
dirty milk, is the Senator's theory
The butter is all made by the Sena-
tor and wife from a churn that turns
by hand. The Senator always turns
the churn, and assists his wife in
working the butter. The butter which
is a very fine article, is shipped to
all parts of the state. Many families
in Minot use johnson" butter. The
Sevilla hotel at Devils Lake alone
uses $50 worth of this butter a
month. 1t takes work to make good
butter, and Senator Johnson has set
a mighty good example. -|

Minneapolis Journal: Ii it is true,
as Senator Bailey assures us that
national delegates sometimes get
drunk with whiskey, it is also true
that members of congress often get
drunk with power. They forget who
made them, and what they were
made for. In the unwholesome at
mosphere of Washington, surrounded
by flatterers and weedlers, they
swell up until they think they are
the government. Then they go back
to their constituents and try to show
that they have kept faith. We have
in Minneapolis an instance OF man
who devoted his whole primary cam
paign to whitening Cannon and the
rules with his scorn. and then went
to Washington and meelcly voted for
both to get on committee.

Durum Day was fiat failure, so
far as any celebration OF the day by
the use of the -four was concerned.
No doubt it was found to be exceed
ingly difficult to procure it from the
millers in a pure state, from which
the inference might be that it lis
mixed with other varieties and finds
its market as -four under the name
OF some of the we'll known brands
with which We are familiar. AS for

Increasing quantities and will soon
become a strong rival OF the blue
stem and fife varieties-and this on
it's own merits regardless of Durum
Day or other adventitious aids. In the
