SCOTLAND MARKET REPORT.

Mrs. A. D. Ardery received word
Tuesday morning that her mother,
Mrs. Kramer, had just passed
away at her home in Lesterville.
Mrs. Kramer had been almost help
less for a year with infammatory
rheumatism, but her condition was
not supposed to be any worse than
usual, 80 the news came as a great
surprise. Mrs. Ardery has been
confined to the house for seven
months, much of the time confined
to her bed, but she could not bear
to have her mother buried without
seeing her, so DIR. Koobs accom-
panied her to Lesterville on the
afternoon train Tuesday, and they
returned on the evening train.

The school board held a meeting
Tuesday evening Tor the purpose
of employing teachers for the en-
suing year. The following teach
ers we're re-employed, each with an
increase in salary of $k per month:
Mrs. Becker and Misses Jordan,
Stevenson, Ardery and Campbell.
Misses Tower and Simmons had
notified the board that they did not
wish to be re-employed. Miss
May Rick of Yale, Ia, was an
ployed as assistant principal. It
was impossible to fill all of the po-
sitions in n evening so an ad-
]ournment was taken, but it is
probable that Mrs. Miller will also
be re-employed at the next meet
ing, as her work seems to be very
satisfactory. A report from the
school treasurer showed funds on
hand sufficient TO enable the board
to redeem nearly $4,000 Of out
standing warrants. This leaves a
little over $4,000 of warrants is
sued at the time the school house
was built, and it is probable that
when the taxes for 1908 are all
paid, and the superintendent re-
ceived, that the balance of this in.
debtedness can be wiped out, leav-
ing the district clear except for the
bonds which bear a low rate of in

in cash for dairy products. Dairy farming
is the system of farming to which North
central Minnesota is best adapted, it is the
most practical and profitable system for
the average farmer
It is true fact that the adaptibility for
dairying does not disparage the agricultural
richness of the soil hereabouts for farming
purposes as it is well known that Mime
sofa is the wheat state of the world, the
soil of which will raise anything from
tobacco, coffee, peanuts, crops which have
been exhibited and crops which have at
tracted widespread attention.
In conclusion, let it be known that as far
as darying goes the grasses of this state
are not like Buffalo grass, which thrives
but for few months in the fall, but are
one perennial growth. Without exaggera-
tion or with the sinister motive to deceive,
The Pioneer can unreservedly aver that the
soil of Beltrami county has produced three
crops of clover in single year.
The above facts speak their own piece
for the dairying interests possible in this
country. However, if you are sceptica1,
write the immigration Bureau at ST. Paul
for a confederation of what we have here
in asserted.

ton he has held for five years, and that he
is amply qualified for the position, is indf
Gated by the results of his work and the
development of agriculture throughout
north-central Minnesota during the past few
years, and along the lines he has advocated,
based upon his work on the experiment
farm. He is a graduate of the school of
agriculture and State University and also
from the "school of hard knocks"
That Mr.. McGuire's distinctive choice as
head of the experimental station was a
stroke of wisdom on the part of the Board
of Regents of the State University can be
imagined from the extent of the interest
he has aroused in the dairying and cattle
industries, and by the enormous sums of
capital which his voluntary efforts and tech
nical knowledge have brought into the state.
Through his conception of the dairy indus
try and by his impressive demonstration of
the possibilities of agriculture in northern
Minnesota, he has attracted homeseekers
and cattle men in manifold numbers. We
refer the reader to the special article on
this subject, desiring as we do, to merely
reflect Mr.. Mcclure as he really appears
before the public.
Mr.. Mcclure is one of those men who is
destined to rank among the first of those
who have permanently benefited this state.
He is tireless in his efforts to produce
scientific results; he has devoted the last
iota Of energy to the matter Of dairying,
and The Pioneer can unequivocally assert.
before the legislature and individuals alike
that Mr. Mcclure has not only earned posi-
tive distinction which has come to him by
virtue of merit and learning but that he is
among the most useful men in the state.

BEMlDJl'S CREAMERY.

This is one of the most important es-
adjustments in this section, and one
which goes to forcibly illustrate the pos
sibilities of Beltrami County's dairying
interests When the fact is realized that
the Bemidji Creamery daily turns out
inkling of the worth of our grazing lands
and cattle raising can be drawn. The
Bemidji Creamery is also strictly home
concern, owned by Melges Brothers, the
proprfetors of the mammoth fruit and
commission house which bears their name.
notice of which is given in another col
umn.
Too much stress cannot be laid upon
the dairying opportunities available in
this county, as the people hereabouts are
just awakening to this highly to be an
preciated resource. Beltrami county truly
offers hopes for success along these lines.
The geological conditions are ideal. all
conditions are propftious for the raising
of cattle which will produce milk of rich
ness and in great quantity, and it is
foregone conclusion that the Bemidii
Creamery has not only filled much
needed field, but that 1t will develop into
one of the greatest plants of its kind in
the Great Northwest It's reputation for
a pure, sweet and clean butter production
is widespread, its trade yield extends to
every section Of the country. and It con-
stitutes factor which greatly advertises
the city.
Farmers in this vicinity should realize
the full value of the Bemidji Creamery,
and give to it their most consistent sun
port, for they will then not only benefit
themselves financially, but will have
done their share toward fostering an in
dustry which means much to this city and
county

AS TO LIVE STOCK.

COrrellatfve with dafryfng, here is a
salacious morsel for the livestock breeder;
taken from the records and absolutely bona
fide
Minnesota has a large variety of soil,
but all of highly productive character,
and scientific examinations show that the
soil in Minnesota contains more plant food
than the average in other states. To be-
gin WITH prominent cattle breeders are
feeding stock in this state-cattle brought
from other localities. A fact which proves
that stock-raising is sinecure in this
vicinity At the Worlds Fair in Chicago,
samples of Minnesota SOIL which were ex-
hibited there, were awarded the prize for
containing more plant food than any other
state in the contest.
This fact helps some.
But further:
Dairying and the raising of livestock have
become important industries here and
herds of the very best blooded stock
can be found on almost every farm, with
creameries and cheese factories in many
villages Statistics from the recent report
Of the state dairy and food commissioners
present some interesting facts, relative to
Minnesota's dairying. and are as follows:
During the year 1906 the 825 creameries in
Minnesota made over 7S,455 pounds Of
butter and seventy-two cheese factories
made over 31,732O00 pounds of cheese.
These few figures show that Minnesota IS
a dairy as we'll as wheat state, and the
dairy business is increasing every year.
Minnesota has been Justly named ''The
Bread and Butter State" it produces
yearly a bushel of wheat and pound Of
butter for every man. woman and child
in the United States

MR.. A. J. MCGUIRE.

In bringing the name of this gentleman
before the thousands Of readers who will
peruse this edition Of The Pioneer, we do
so because he has been one Of the most
prominent factors in the Northwest in
bringing the dairying interests to the high
plane and prominence with which they are
now accredited

detrimental station at Grand Rapids, posi-

is a match for the old corn belt of the
United States Statistics show that as far
back as the year 1899, Minnesota raised
yielded over 47,00O,O0O bushels, and at the
ST. Louis Worlds Fair nothern country
farmer walked off with one of the prizes
for superior quality of corn. Fodder
can be raised in abundance in all parts of
the state, and is boost for the dairy and
livestock interests of the state.
While Minnesota farmers can success
fully raise any kind of farm products, in
tame and wild grasses she stands head and
shoulders above all others in both quality
and quantity of production. Grasses thrive
in every part of the state. At the last
state fair Beltrami county exhibited some
clover which measured six feet and two
inches in length, and some wild blue joint
grass which measured five feet and seven
inches.
Minnesota is particularly adapted for sheep
raising, but this branch of industry has
been neglected and has gone to the prairies
OF the west: However, farmers have begun
to take more to this industry the past few
years with remarkable success, and sheep
raising will soon be an important and
profitable business in this state as sheep
require undulating land, and over seventy
five per cent of Minnesota is of this char
acter, according to geological survey. The
State Experimental Farm recently made an
interesting experiment in raising sheep
which proved conclusively that Minnesota is
a sheep state as we'll as cattle state. Ten
head Of sheep were successfully pastured
on one acre of land, and the same ten head
were fed through the winter from the pro-
duct Of one acre. The experimental farm
also sent crate of five head of sheep to
Chicago in 1901 and 1902 in contest with
the world and in both cases Minnesota
sheep were awarded the first prize.
To tell of all of Minnesota's agricultural
advantages would require many pages,
therefore we can only give brief descrip-
ton in this number, but we can say
that one acre of Minnesota land will
produce just as much as an acre of
the land in the highly developed portions
of the United States, where it sells from
800 to 5000 per acre, or more. The price
Of Minnesota farm lands, although steadily
advancing, is still low, compared with many
other states, and to the man with little
money who wishes to raise livestock, enter
the dafrying business or farm, no better
place can be found on the globe than Bel
trami County.
It is not speaking too highly to say that
Beltrami County holds out better induce
ments than any other section in the union, to
men in all walks of life With SOIL forests and
prospective wealth and railroad and water
way transportation facilities unparalleled,
it offers to you sturdy and sound citizen
ship, and extends hand Of welcome to
the Industrious, thrifty and progressive
citizen
The Pioneer requests that careful study
be made of the article relative to Bel
trami county's abundance and resourceful-
ness, which will be found on another page.
