The effect OF the suns rays upon

We are daily coming in contact
with the products of the dairy cow
in one form or another. Thus it is to
the iinteret Of the owner of the dairy
breed Of cattle to carefully select
animals which are from a good
healthy stock but animals which are
good profit producers, or in other
words, that yield a flow of milk, con-
tanning sufficient butter fat, to war
rant the animal worth the while of
keeping upon the premises. f.: -
While it is always essential that
animals be we'll fed and cared for,
it Is oftentimes found that the ami
NAL producing the largest amount
of milk is mot necessarily the
animal which devours the most
feed and for this reason the owner
should learn the temperament of each
individual animal and feed it accord
ingly, in this way realizing: profits
which might otherwise be wasted.

FIRST BASEBALL GAME

Fair Grounds.

Base ball fans of Bemidji will be
given the first opportunity to witness
q game with an outside team next
Saturday, when the local high
school team will play the Blackjack
high school nine at Bemidji. The
game will be played at the fair
grounds, where the high school boys
have prepared good diamond.
The local school boys have been
practicing steadily, and have already
played one game with a pickup
town team. The high school boys
were ahead as long as they kept
Gill in the pitching box, but when
the players were shifted in order to
try all the available material, the
old vets" connected with the other
tossers to such an extent that the
high school nine lost the game.
Other games are being arranged

Freeburg.-Bemidji on Top Again.
The Leaders TODAY.

A Bemidji Candidate again leads
the contest today. For the past
week almost they have been swamped
by the out-of-town contestants votes,
but once again they have risen to
supremacy. From the start of the
contest until week ago the Be-
midi Candidates seemed to have
things all their own way, but for
the past ten days it appears that
they haven't any best of the argu-
ment when it comes to securing
votes. The out-of-town candidates
are working like Sam Hill and max
ing every minute of the few re-.
naming days of double votes count.
This shows what energy and persist
ence will do when properly applied.
It also shows what a candidates
friends and acquaintance are
worth. The most remarkable thing
about the voting list this evening
is that the scores of the first six
candidates are within $4,000 votes.
That is to say that the leader,
Miss Wightman, is only $4,000 votes
beyond the sixth candidate.
The heavy voting for the past
few days continued undiminished
yesterday. Altogether the candi-
dates polled more than a million
votes. This means a great increase
in the Pioneers circulation.
Business Men Interested.

make it cleaner and more beautiful
city. AS means to this end, I will
endeavor to throw no paper on the
streets, to throw no refuse of any
kind on the streets, to walk on the
sidewalks, to protect the trees and
birds from harm, to refrain from in
juring buildings and to keep the
city ordinances"
The Bemidji Improvement league
is receiving excellent support from
most of the residents of the city.
The work of the league will be
especially valuable in keeping the
parks and lakeshore clean, and in
maintaining a high standard of
freshness and cleanliness in the
other parts of the city which will
correspond with the natural beauties
with which Bemidji has been so
richly endowed. ..-. =
Other meetings of the league will
be held this spring when practical /.
talks will be given by different ladies
on the methods of getting rid of the
kitchen refuse, the best ways to
make yard beautiful, and the
proper manner of plan ting trees.
This work all tends to make our city
a bigger, brighter, better Bemidji.

POLITICAL BRIEFS.

Don't worry. The candidates will
let you know there is an election in
November.
Chase Osborn is meeting with a
hearty reception throughout the state
even better than before the primary
campaign, which is a healthy sign and
shows that the republicans of Michi-
gan are united in the cause and will
give their candidate big majority in
November.
The Republican State Central Com
mittee has absolutely refused to ac-
cept money from state employees, even
going to the extent of sending il
back. Most of the state employees are
not lamenting over this fact with the
increased cost of living and the papers
constantly being circulated through
out the capitol for aid for this cause
that and the other thing.
Remember that election day is now
but short time away, and every
voter should exercise his right II
is not only right, but demand oi
good government.
With practically full tickets in the
field by all political parties, the vote
this fall should be a large one. All
parties are showing considerable ac-
tivity.
