A VALUABLE COW.
{ By w. G.. Pafmer.)

If COW gives 175 pounds of butter
in a year is worth $4,000, how much
is COW worth that gives $50 pounds
of butter in year? H.
Suppose that butter will average
rs cents the year round, and it will do
better, and that the feed is worth
$4,000 for the year. The first cow
would give return of $43.75, less
$4,000 for feed would leave a pro-
fit Of 1915, counting that the milk,
calf and manure pays for the labor.
The second COW would give re-
turn Of $3.50 for butter and would
give at least 1000 pounds more Of
milk which at 20 cents per hundred
pounds, and it is worth more for feed,
would bring $500. The calf from
the good COW is also worth more, but
let that go. The return would be
$3.50 less $4,000 for feed or a pro-
fit of $500 on the same basis as the
other COW made profit of 1915. It
would take practically fifteen It's
pound cows to make as much profit
as the one $50 pound COW.
1915 is 6.2 per cent on $4,000 and
$500 is 6.2 percent on $895.16. On
this basis of percentage income, when
the IT'S pound COW is worth $4,000,
the $50 pound cow is worth $s95.16.
The keeping of the cows should hn
looked at from the business stand
point The poor COW 1s dear at any
price but the good COW Is usually not
rated at her real value.

OLD TRIP

Mr.. HILL RELATES STIRRING IN.
clDENTs OF EARLY DAYS IN
THE NORTHWEST.

James J. Hill relates an interesting
story Of the: .hardships endured and
thrilling Incidents encountered during
his, trip through the northwest to Win
nipeg during the winter of 1870.
Mr.. Hill left st. Paul for Fort Gary
by stage. He and his companions
had strenuous experiences in forcing
their way through the huge snowdrifts
which resulted from terrible biz
bard, occurring shortly after their trip
began. At one place on the road the
driver, agent and passengers were
compelled to shovel their way thru
the snow for distance Of more than
20 miles. To make matters worse a
fierce wind was blowing in the face Of
the workers and vigorous work was
necessary to keep the wind from fill
ing the road; with snow as rapidly as
the travellers had cleared 1t away.
Several nights the weary pathfind-
ers we're compelled to sleep in the
open and we're obliged to send one of
their number on foot to bring back
a fresh team, the one they had been
driving completely played out.
At Old Crossing, Mr.. Hill bought a
dog train and proceeded on his jour-
ney. Forty miles from the Grand
Forks of the Red River, one night
after Mr.. Hill had made his camp
and was enjoying much needed sleep
he was awakened by the barking of
dogs in the distance. In those days
when danger lurked about on every
side, the sound breaking out on the
lonely silence of the night was enough
to send a thrill of terror to the heart
of the bravest. Carefully reconnoit-
ering, he was surprised and delighted
to discover that the noise came from
the camp of his old friend, Judge NAL
mros, who was on his way to st. Paul.
Mr.. Hill had the opportunity here to
deliver to Judge Malmros a box Of CT
gars sent by Hon. Charles ,Scheffer,
and according to Mr.. Hill never were
cigars more enjoyed than those that
night, as the two friends sat together
throughout the long hours of the night
surrounded by endless stretches of
mountainous snow drifts, exchanging
stories Of their Experiences, their fut,
| ure plans and hopes.
Mr.. Hill continued his trip, using

Most Horrible Manner.

Especial to The Sentinel. ]

Central City, Colo, April 31.-W.
ii. Chittenden, one of the most prom
inent mining men operating In this
section and whose home is in Denver,
met death in an awful manner here
some time last night. He came here
Monday from Denver to attend n trial
of some men charged with stealing
some mining machinery. He had
been sleeping at night in cOmfOrta-
BILE twO-roOm cabin near a large mine
in which he is heavily interested. He
went to the cabin early last evening
and retired.
This morning men at the mine
were Mortified to find that the cabin
had burnt down during the night and
among the ruins the charred remains
of Chittenden were found. The arms
and head were burned completely off.
There were no evidences of foul play
but some are inclined to think the
cabin may have been set on fire
through revenge motives,

known throughout this district, hav-
ing operated here for years. He
leaves a family, residing in Denver.

LITTLE HOPE OF MEN
BEING RESCUED ALIVE
[By Associated Press. !

Birmingham, Ala, April 21.-Lit-
tie hope was expressed this morning
that any of the 30 or 40 miners en-
tombed in Mulga mine of the Birm-
ingham Coal & Iron Co., as n result
of an explosion last night would be
rescued alive. When it was learned
that it was impossible to gain an en-
trance to the mine through the shaft
because the cages were sprung in the
passage, the entrance was sealed to
prevent If possible the spread of fire.
The only list of names of the min
ers at work at the time of the ex-
plosion was held by the foreman of
the gang at work who is among the
entombed. 1t Is believed however,
there are fifteen white men and twen-
ty or twenty-five negroes.

insistence of DR.. Hyde that Miss
Pearl Keller. the nurse. complete at
one time all of her testimony for the
state caused Judge Latshaw today to
permit the witness to go into the de-
tails of the typhoid epidemic in the
6wope home.
In passing on the matter yesterday
the court decided that it would hear
no testimony in regard to this phase
of the case until it's relevancy to the
death of Col. Swope had been shown.
Rather than deprive the state OF
the testimony of Miss Keller, how
ever, the court said that she might
testify regarding the epidemic at this
time. If its relevancy is not estab-
lished, the testimony will be stricken
out; but the jury has heard all of
her evidence.
The most startling of all the feat
ures of Miss Keller's story was her
assertion that the convulsion suf-
fered by Margaret Swope on Decem-
ber IS was similar to the attack that
preceded Col. Swope's death. The
state charges that on that day DR..
Hyde poisoned Margaret Swope.
