herd, it is important that something
be known of the records of his ances-
tors. Individuality alone is not
enough to guide a person in making
the selection, but we should also
know how much butter-fat his dam
produced in one year The only prac-
teal way to determine such butter
fat test is to base it on a full year
test instead of a test for a few days
or even a month. Too much dairy
stock is being sold today for a fancy
price, simply because some COW has
a big record for short period The
question is often asked, Which is
the best dairy breed?" or which is
the best beef breed?" This capnot be
answered by naming one particular
breed, as all breeds have good quail
ties, and it also depends much upon
the choice of the individual breeder.
Do not buy sire to head the herd
merely because he is a pure-bre.l ami.
NAL, but be sure that he poss esses
individual merit and also has ances-'
tors with a good record. There has
been such big demand for pure-bred
dairy bulls during the past few years,
that breeders have been selling all
kinds of inferior animals for breed
ing stock. Such practice, of selling
so many inferior animals, merely be-
cause they are pure bred, can only
result in injury to the dairy business,
instead of making the Improvement
that should take place, if more dis
erection were used in selecting pure
bred stock. 1t is much better for
few farmers to join together and buy
good bull, to which to breed their
cows, instead of each trying to buy
bull, and thereby securing cheaper
and poorer individuals.

A Christmas Present that
Means Sometime.

There is one especially good
thing about Christmas present of
The Youth S Companion. 1t shows
that the giver thought enough Of
you to give you something worth
while.
It is easy to choose something
costing a great deal more which is
absolutely useless, but to choose a
present costing only SITS that
will provide long years entertain
ment, and the uplifting companion
ship Of the wise and great, is
another matter. There is one
present, however, which does just
that-The Youths Companion.
If you want to know whether it
is appropriate or welcome, just
visit the home of some Companion
subscriber on Companion day. G ;as9 . .
Do not choose any Christmas
present until you have examined
The Companion. We will send you
free sample copies and the beauti-
full Prospectus for 1911, telling
something of how The Companion
has recently been enlarged and i'm
proved.
The one to whom you give the
subscription will receive free all
the numbers of 1910 issued after
the money is received; also The
Companion s Art Calendar for
1911, Autographed in twelve colors
and gold. These will be sent to
reach the subscriber Christmas
morning, if desired.
You, too as giver of the subscrip-
tion. will receive copy of the
Calendar.

DON'T BE DISAPPOINTED
New Tariff Board Useless; Only In
tended to Kill Time.

New Tariff Board Useless; Only In
tended to Kill Time.
Many people are expecting that the
new tariff board will help to throw light
upon the necessity Of the present high
schedules. Let them not place their
expectations too high, however. The
tariff board was not intended to be any
thing but poWerless, useless thing
an empty device to appease the anger
Of the people. The tariff board has no
power to take testimony, administer
oaths or compel the production Of
books and documents. All such pow
ers were denied it in the conference
bill which finally passed the house
Their function as there stated simply
is:
Ito secure information to assist the
president in the discharge of the du-
ties imposed upon him by this section
and the officers Of the government in
the administration of the customs
laws
Narrow administrative functions are
all that are here meant. The last thing
in the minds Of the trainers OF the
present tariff was that their work
should be liable to disturbance by such
a tribunal as this. But it now suits
them to make the claim that the tariff
board is a real, live thing and that
they meant it to be so all along; hence
we hear Of Senator Lodge and others
proclaiming that the old. corrupt idea
of tariff legislation by log rolling meth
DDS is past and that the new era Of
scientific revision based on expert evil
dence has set in. And President Taft
has, by a bold Interpretation Of the law
and by securing an ample appropria-
ton for expenses, succeeded in per-
suading section Of the public that the
tariff board means business
Meanwhile let us not place our trust
in tariff boards created by high tariff
advocates. One great fact we do know
without their assistance-that our pro-
tected manufacturers are selling large
ly abroad and selling at lower price
than at home That ought to be
enough for us If they can compete
successfully abroad with manufacture
ers who are not protected why should
we continue to let them have protec-
ton?

THE ONLY WAY
Many Willmar Citizens Have Dis.
covered II.

Just what to do when the kid
neys are affected, is question that
concerns both young and old. Weak
kidneys neglected in childhood lead
to lifelong suffering. People of
advanced years with less vitality
suffer doubly. In youth or age,
langour, backache, urinary irreg
ularity, dizziness and nervousness
make life burden.
There is one remedy that acts
directly on the kidneys and cures
these troubles. Doan's Kidney
Pills owe their worldwide fame
to the fact that they cure sick kid
neys and cure them permanently.
Follow the example of this Willmar
citizen and you will be convinced
that this is so.
John Mossberg, 18th St. Cor. Beck
er Ave., Willmar MIMI, says: Il
can say that Doan's Kidney Pills
are an effective kidney medicine.

pains in my back that could not
sleep at night, used this remedy
and it cured me. Today / am free

Throw Away that Fountain
syringe.

1t is one OF the most unnatural
articles used. Bowels should be
regulated with what we eat and
drink, in fact our system itself d.
reefs US by its cravings what to eat
and drink. The first cause Of con-
stipation is simply slight cold in
the majority of cases. and this can
easily be broken up by taking from
fifteen drops to two teaspoonfuls
four times day according to age
of Elfstrum' and Co.'s Extract
Cascara Sagrada Arom. The same
direction holds good for habitual
constipation. In such cases, the
fountain syringe will be shelved
and soon forgotten.
The secret of being healthy and
feeling good is to keep the bowels in
good working ssorder, and this is
easily done by using our remedy.
1t is not a patent medicine, but
simply an extract of Chittim Wood
Bark. as they call it west of the
Cascade Mountains. We have the
bark ground up for the convenience
of making infusions and extracts.
In the aromatic extract the bitter
principle is removed and aromatics
added which make it very pleas
ant to take. even for the most deli
cate child or lady. 1t causes no
gripping or uncomfortable feeling
and is a reliable remedy. A trial
size. two ounce bottle retails for
twenty-fv cents, and should be in
every household. 4ltf
During the great strike in Swed-
en- last year, the Government closed
up all the saloons Of the entire
Kingdom for a month, thus apply
ing the efficacious ounce of preven-
ton instead of waiting for the
expensive pound Of cure. This
action, however, had one quite
unlooked-for result. When the sa-
looms reopened for business after
the month was over, it was found
that a considerable percentage of
their patrons failed to return.
These had found apparently, that
they coud get along without drink
ing to the advantage of their health
and their purses. This recession
Of patronage. moreover, has proved
more or less permanent; so much so
that a large brewing company in
Stockholm has recently liquidated,
the stockholders receiving back
twenty-five per cent only of their
investment.
Another proof of the trend of
sentiment in Sweden is derived
from the unofficial plebiscite re-
Gently taken by the National Fed
ration of temperance organizations.
Every person over eighteen,
whether male or female, was invi-
ted to vote on the question whether
the saloons could not as we'll be
closed twelve months in the year as
one. The opponents of temper
ance, Of course, declined to vote,
but the plebiscite went on and the
organizations succeeded in gather
ing total Of 1,878,519 votes in
favor of their proposition. num-
Der estimated to be more than fifty
four percent of the whole number
Of possible votes. Whether pro-
per safeguards were thrown about
the voting may he questioned. But
there is no doubt Of the tremen-
dous growth of temperance senti
ment among the Swedish people,

ACCORDING to the decision Of the State
Supreme Court OF Appeals, the West VIZ
GINA two-cent passenger fare law is con-
stitutional on its face, but confiscatory as
applied to the Coal and Coke Railroad.
This decision was rendered at Charleston
on Monday The circuit court OF Kanaw-
ha county had previously held that the
law was both unconstitutional and con-
fiscatory, the road having contested the
statute on both grounds. Three other
roads, the Chesapeake and Ohio, Norfolk
and Western and Kanawha and Michigan,
also contested the law. According to
Tuesdays finding, they must obey the
statute unless they can show that it is
confiscatory in their cases also. Attorney
General Conley, when he heard OF the
decision, took steps to have the injunc-
ton obtained by the roads other than the
Coal and Coke dissolved and to seek an
order restoring the two-cent fares on
those roads.
