Is it just and honorable for n who

Parents, knowing all this, allow their

Ii you will only look at it in an in

a family of strong. healthy children,
who will bar a young man who has in

SOME REASONS FOR IT

While IL IL matter OF real concern
that thousands of small towns are
having their very llfeblo0d sapped
out by the large increase IN catalogue
house business, there ate some fea
lures In the cause of this increase
that II would be- well II merchants
and residents OF these same small
towns would take into account. One is
the practice OF the merchant IN charg
ing more than reasonable profit on
some lines OF goods offered for sale
This begets the maii order habit.
which doesn't, Hs 1t rule, stop with the
articles on which unreasonable prices
have been charged, Another reason
for the mail order business Is that the
home merchant so seldom In his ad
yertislng announcement n indeed. he
has one In the hOiuc puper names a
definite and specific price for his
goods. II thing thai Is invariably done
In the mail order catalogue Another
feature that IL Iuislng hob with more
thnn one town is that Staples offered
the same goods III adjoining towns.
while the prices paid for live stock
aud produce are from 10 to 80 cents
per hundred less IN helping the small
town out Of thr dilemma which mnny
Of them are getting into there ls much
that can be- done by those whose In.

HOW HE HANDLED THEM.

During the last week in October II.
D. Brawner. regular farmer and
feeder OF cattle and hogs, who lives
ar Delayan. H., sold carload OF two.
yeur-old branded Montana bred Angus
steers on the Chicago market ut so,
the highest price ever paid for brand
ed range fed cattle on the regular
market. The steers averaged 1901
owner trifle over $135 apiece Cat.
tie feeders will be interested In Mr
Brawner's history of the care Of this
bunch Of profitable beeves He says:
'These cattle were bought on the
Chicago market one year ago yester-
day as yearlings, averaging 130
pounds, at 81 per 100 pounds They
were bred and raised on ranch near
Livingston, Mont I took them home
and roughed them through last win
ter in the stalk fields aud with a little
clover hay until April I, then fed
them IN IA dry lot for about six weeks.
when placed them on blue grass
pasture, with light ear corn ration
fed each evening until Sept. /. then
began giving them full ration of
crushed corn and oats, with dry fod-
der on pasture, until shortly before
shipment, when they were again
placed in dry lot. No patent stock
foods were used. | think the dry fod-
der was great help 20 their finish, as
they always ate it with great relish.
AS II general proposition strongly rec
ommend feeding shock corn complete

prove OF standing ration OF cora ell

fattening cattle | feed once per day
regularly just enough grain 10 be eat.
en- up clean This lot OF cattle was
fattened with the least corn OF any !
ever fed. and have fed cattle prae
ticalIy all my life"
One or two further points OF inter
est in connection with Mr. Brawner' s
methods are that ne makes great
point OF careful and gentle treatment
of his feeding animals; that lie uses a
manure spreader on his farm all the
time, having IN mind the necessity of
maintaining soil fertility By selling
beef and pork rather than raw grain
products de ulsO places n high esti

A northern Minnesota farmer had
an unusual exhibit Of alfalfa at his
home state fair this year, and inquiry
into the case has brought out the
fact that he got four cuttings this
season from his two acre patch, the
first yielding four tons to the acre, the
second three, the third two and a
half tons, and OF the fourth no record
was kept, as It was saved for the hogs
and chickens and was not weighed
II he last cutting averaged ton per
acre 1t would make the yield per acre
for the season ten and half tons
The land on which this alfalfa was
grown has a foot of sandy loan sur.
face soil with clay beneath The
ground was prepared In the fall and
the seed sown without nurse CROP
In the spring at the rate OF three
hounds per acre. The field was moved
the LIST Of July and again the LIST Of
September to dispose Of the weeds.
Another favorable condition was that
the patch had southerly exposure,
which made II warm and insured ex.
seIlent drainage.
