A VALUABLE WORK.
Organization of Cow 7 esting As
sociations.

The last Minnesota legislature ap-
propriated $1,000 for period of two
years for extension work to be carried
on by the dairy division of the state
experimental station.
The first work undertaken is the or
ganization of testing associations
in different creamery localities in the
state. An expert dairyman is now in
the field organizing these associations
and giving instructions for carrying
on the work.
The general plan is as follows: Each
patron supplies himself with a small
spring scale and bottles for taking
composite samples of the milk from
each COW. The experiment station
furnishes all necessary blanks and
complies results.
The milk from each COW is weighed
once week, samples are taken for
the composite test and each cows feed
is estimated. At the end of the
month, the composite samples are test
ed, either at the local creamery or at
the station laboratory, and the records
are sent to the dairy division at Uni
versity farm.
In this way results will be obtained
which are sufficiently accurate for all
practical purposes, and the patron,
who is supplied with copy of the
record, will have learned which cows
in his herd are returning him profit.
The only expense to the patron is the
cost of scale and bottles.
Dairymen wishing to organize a
testing association should make ap-
plication to Prof. T. L. Hacker, Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul, Mimi.

Silent Lies.

There are silent lies in addition to
those spoken aloud. And these are
equally despicable. Living a lie, turn
ing life into a deceptive machine, is
not only demoralizing, but it is always
a confession Of weakness. The strong
balanced mind does not resort to sub
terfuge 1t can afford to be transpar-
ent, open, because 1t is conscious of
strength and does not need to hide
anything. Great minds are open to the.
light. with no dark corners. With
them nothing is hidden or veiled.
Everybody is afraid OF the Opaque
mind-the mind that acts in the dark,
underground. Nobody trusts the man
who is always covering his tracks
We all love transparent mind. .-Ex-
change.

TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY.
Joint Undertaking of State and
us Governments.

Surveyors are now at work in Grant
and Stevens counties making a
topographic survey under a contract
between the state and federal govern
ments, under the terms of which the
each will take an equal part in extend
ing the Typographical survey of Min
nesota. F. M. Douglas is now doing
triangulation work in this section of
this state, covering Stevens, Grant
and part of Otter Tail counties.
Mr.. Douglas and his assistants will
be followed by J. G.. Stack, who will
be in charge of several parties from
the survey who will make complete
topographic survey of these counties,
probably in the present season. It is
expected that as result of the work
done maps of these counties will be
ready for distribution late next year.
For this years work the state of
Minnesota will contribute $4,000,
while the federal government will
contribute $1,000. The reason that no
more was contributed by the federal
authorities was that the states appli-
cation for the assistance of the govern
ment was made after all of the current
appropriation had been allotted. It is
proposed to equalize this next year
by having the federal government
contribute SIC, 900, while the state gov
ernment will be asked for only $5, 900.
It is possible for the government to
contribute a larger amount each year,
should the state legislature increase
the allowance for the state drainage
commission at its next session, until
about 80 per cent of the state has
been covered.
The maximum allowance made from
federal appropriations where only a
small proportion of the state has been
surveyed is $4,000 year, which, if
met by an equal amount from the
state, will expedite completion of the
work. Officials of the survey are
hoping that the legislature will be
liberal, in order that the states topo-
graphic survey may be fastened.

2OO-MILE RAILWAY.
Project Running From Pierre,
S. D. to Browns Valley.


Pierre, s. D., July IA new rail-
road project, for which articles will
be filed in few days, is the Redfield
& Southwestern road, with head
quarters at Redf1eld and capital of
$4,000, 900.
It will be Incorporated by N. P.
Packard, Peter Norbeck, q. A. Grain,
E. 0. Issenhuth and W. S. Clark of
Redfield, J. FL. Gropenheiser and L..
E. Snyder of Oneida.
The company proposed to build a
line from Pierre to Browns Valley,
Mimi, by way of Oneida and Red
field. The counties proposed to be
crossed by the line are Hughes, Sully,
Hyde, Hand, Sphinx, Day and Roberts.
The proposed line is planned to be
two hundred miles in length.
The above special appeared in the
Pioneer Press and has created much
interest in Browns Valley and vicin-
ity. The general conclusion at this
place is that the Great Northern has
has not been satisfied with it's busi-
ness in South Dakota, and for some
time it has been on the lookout for
means to improve it. It's line from
Aberdeen around via Breckenridge is
circuitous route to the twin cities
and Duluth. By coming through
Browns Valley from Redfield the COM
pany will have much shorter connec-
ton between central South Dakota
and the cities and by building from
Redfield to Pierre and probably on to
Deadwood an entire new territory will
be opened up, and it is a territory
that will give fine growing business
to railroad. The proposition looks
feasible and good and there is every
reason to believe that it will be carried
out.
DIVISION FOR BROWNS VALLEY.
Pierre is the same distance from
Browns Valley as Browns Valley is
from the twin cities, approximately
200 miles, and the new proposition
makes noise very much like divi-
sion point at Browns Valley. We
have the best water on the route and
an abundance of it. We are located
on the state line where the rates for
fares and freight are likely to change
and there are many other good rea-
sons. The new road is the very thing
Browns Valley would welcome with
cpen arms. By Oneninp mn the terri-
tory through the better part of South
Dakota, where lakes and summer re-
sorts are scarce, would at once create
a fine summer resort business at
Browns Valley, which is located di-
rectly between the two beautiful
lakes Big Stone and Traverse. The
moment dirt begins to fly on the pro-
posed new road, Browns Valley will
organize 5000 club-then watch us
grow.-Browns Valley Tribune.

Side Issues.

During the game only 33 men faced
Lord, and they only got two hits
while 42 faced Murphy in the eight
and one half innings and they got 10
hits.
The sun seemed to bother the Han
cock fielders a good deal, but Andri-
sick must have had some dark glasses
on as he took three chances without
an error.
Next Tuesday evening the bunch of
Hasbeens who are managed by the
firm of Baily, Spooner, Lewis & Co.
will try to teach the Independents
how the game should be played. The
game will start at $3.50 P. m.

WIN ANOTHER.
Sunday Game Resulted Morris
8, Hancock 2.

Comparing the results of the last
two games between the Independents
and the Hancock team, one could be
OF the opinion that the game given to
them down there was part of nicely
worked scheme to get them up here
again and have some fun with them.
II it was, it certainly worked fine.
Hancock arrived happy and con-
fident, for did they not have two of
the Clontarf team with them and had
they not defeated the Independents
the week before.
But Hancock came to bat first and
Lord was right there with the goods.
Maylott struck out, and Gardner and
Kent hit to the infield for easy outs.
When the Independents came to
bat they started things Immediately
bingle for two sacks by Munro, and
an single by A. LeSage, following
scored him. The next three couldn't
hit safely and that was all for the 1st.
In the second A. LeSage beat out
one, stole second and scored on a
bingle to short by R. LeSage.
The 3rd was started like the 1st, by
another hit for two bags by Munro.
Warren hunted, he getting safe to 1st,
but Munro was caught off 3rd. War
rem later scored on hit by Andrisick.
In the 4th Bloom made the circuit.
In the 9th Hancock frightened up some
and no one scored altho A LeSage and
Warren got on bases.
In the 9Th Bloom got to Murphy for
the third two bagger of the same and
scored on Nelson's fly which Dudley
couldn't handle. Lord got safe on 1st
but neither he or Nelson scored.
There was nothing doing in the 7th,
but Nelson started the 9Th with a hit,
Lord drew pass, Calvin flew out to
third, and Murphy gave Munro pass
filling the bases. E. LeSage hit to
short but was out at 1st. Nelson
scoring Lord and Capt. scored on a
hit by Warren. Then Murphy got his
4th strike out of the game and the
stuff was off.
With Hancok from the 1st to the
9th there was blank but in the 9th
the Independents got little over con-
ident and Gardner and Kent slipped
n
errors gave them two scores.
Score by innings.

H HAYS PARDONEO FROM DREW FARM

Little Rock, May 7. Making a
record, Governor Donaghey
granted two pardons yesterday,
but in each case he was assured
that it would be an injustice to
refuse either application. Henry
Hays, convicted January 16 in
the mayors court at Prescott of
vagrancy, was fined S25 and
costs. This amounted to $50. 80.
He was then taken to the Tillar
convict farm in the Southern
part of the state and charged $34
for his transportation. Working
out his fine and costs at Is cents
day, as is all owed by law,
Hays would have been liberated
48 1-2 days later. He had work
ed 80 days whel. the pardon
was granted. The pardon was
secured by the Arkansas Humane
Society and it is probable this
organization will endeavor to
secure the release of a number
of other convicts on county
farms of the state. Judge JAG
oh Trieber in the Federal court
recently made a decision that
county contractors could not
charge the prisoners for his trans
portation and this prompted the
Humane Society to act in behalf
Of convicts who are being held
to work out costs for being trans
ported from the place of convict
ion to the farm.
The other pardon went to Wal
ter Smith, a youth sent to the
penitentiary for forgery and ut
tering forged Instruments. Smith
was sent up for four years from
the circuit court of Sebastian
county, The petition for his
pardon was signed by W. j.
Johnston mayor at Fort Smith;
Pagan Bourlard and Henry Ku-
per, ir., former mayors, Sheriff
Lon Norris, and a number of
court officials. as we'll as by the
jury which convicted the boy.
Smith is the sole support of a
widowed mother.

AGED MAN KILLED Al CAMDEN

Camen, May 8. r. Nose Levi, a
venerable Hebrew of about IS,
who kept q little family grocery
store on Jackson street at the
crossing with the Iron Mountain
railroad tracks, was found dead
at 9 o'clock tonight in his store
with two dirk wounds in his
neck, one on either side. The
motive of the crime is supposed
to oe robbery, but there is not a
single clue as to the identity of
the murderers and officers are at
a loss how to make a start in
search of the crimina S. 1t is
believed that not much was OBJ
tanned, if any.
Levi, who Was an old soldier
and did a little business, princi-
pally among the families of the
immediate neighborhood and re
quired no help to operate his
store, was at work there when
his wife called to him from the
house nearby to come to supper.
That was about s o'clock. He
replied that he would be home in
few minutes. She waited and
he did not come and finally at
9 o'clock, alarmed at her hus-
bands long absence, Mrs. Levi
left the house and went to the
store. She found his body there,
lying in his blood, where it had
evidently lain for some time.
There was not a trace of a strug-
gle and nothing to point to the
assailants.
The officers believe that the
crime probably was committed
by hoboes, who may have left a
train at the water tank near by,
come in search of money and
killed the old man when they
found him alone, hoping to ran
sack his store for valuables.
There is no evidence that they
got anything. The old man is
not believed to have been rich
and it is quite certain he had
little about his person.
