Date Fixed for Febr. 9th.

A special Farmers Institute is to be
held at st. George on Wednesday,
Feb. 9th, by the same corps of Insti-
stute workers that held so successful a
meeting at New Ulm recently. This
Institute at st. George is arranged for
the benefit of those farmers who are
living too far from New Ulm to take
advantage of the Institute held here.
Mr.. W. W. P. Mcconnell of Mankato.
a. Bracket of Excelsior, VIM. Suter
OF Welcome and Harry Suter, also of
Welcome, will be the instructors at
st. George. and everyone may depend

there will be large audience of men,
women and young people. Institute
Annual No. 70 will be distributed free,

The Arbogast Estate.

The value of the estate of Louis Ar.
bogast, who was murdered at his home.
2S6 W. 7th ST., on May 18th last, is
about $4,000.
This figure is contained in the re.
port OF the appraisers, Andrew Stol-
pestad, real estate dealer, and Harry
3. Humason, assistant cashier Ameri-
can National bank, which has been
filed in probate court.
At the time of the murder it was sur
missed that Mr.. Arbogast was worth
nearly 100000 and the first estim ate
OF the administration was about
$4,000.
Nearly all OF the property is in Mrs.
Arbogast's name, including the butch.
er shop at POI W. 7th ST., the building
next door, the family residence, two
lots at Summit and Smelling AYES,
and two lots in South St. Paul.
A final settlement of the estate will
be made in March and the administra-
tor discharged. The property will
then probably be looked after by an
agent.

Hog Cholera.

Few stock diseases give farmers
more anxiety than hog cholera, and
they will be glad to know that DIR.
Reynolds, of the Agricultural School
at st. Anthony Park, is experimenting
with vaccine to determine it's value as
a specific in hog cholera. A new
building has been erected for his use.
The results thus obtained are such as
to make the doctor confident that with
in short time he will be able to pre-
sent the farmers of Minnesota with a
perfect preventative for the disease.
All those interested in swine will fnd
it to their advantage to communicate
by letter with DR.. Reynolds, Univer-
sity Farm. ST. Paul. His advice Is
given to the people of Minnesota free
of charge.

Good and Bad Breeding.

An interesting feature of the recent
meeting of the Stockbreeder's Asso-
citation at University Farm was the
lecture by Prof Grout, on the subject
OF selecting dairy stock. Several
animals were in the ring, among which
were some Guernseys, whose records
OF butter were stated by the professor.
Ihe best and poorest dairy COWS on
the farm were in evidence. The best
COW, with a record of .4O5 pounds of
butter last year, was shown, together
with her daughter, whose record was
only one hundred and ten pounds
during the same period. The mothers
average for five years past has been
$40 pounds yearly, but owing to her
bad habit of milking herself it is not
definitely known what her record
might be, though Prof. Grout thinks
it would easily reach to over five
hundred pounds if she were crowded.
The heifer is kept as an object lesson
10 snow the value of breeding. One
would naturally think that such a.
mother would give great value to the
offspring, and produce good record
maker. The sire of the daughter,
while having good points, failed to
get a calf OF value, and was disposed
OF as soon as his failure was dis
covered. In this case the scales and
tester were applied to the heifer's milk,
with unsatisfactory results, proving
that only through the daughters can
the value OF the sire be determined.
SO 1t is maintained that when a sire
shows good results he should be kept
IN the community SO long as it is
possible to avoid inbreeding. Then
he can be sent to some other com
munity and his value be preserved
until his service is no longer valuable.

BIG DECREASE In HOG RECEIPTS
Sheep are Plentiful.

Receipts of livestock at the South
st. Paul stockyards for January, 1910
fell Off IS per cent as compared with
receipts for the same month in 1909.
Most o. the decrease was in hogs,
l2l 402 having been received in j anu
airy last year, and only 65,9 61 this
year.
There was also considerable de-
crease in the number of cattle receiv-
ed. a slight increase in the number OF
calves, while sheep came in for an
increase of nearly 100 per cent. Of
the total of 62,653 sheep received,
Montana contribute over $4,000,
somewhat more than half the entire
number.
While the number of animals re-
ceived last month as compared with
January last year was considerably
less, the average weights of cattle,
calves and hogs were higher, the pork
ers this year averaging PIP pounds as
compared with 1873 pounds year ago.
AS usual, the South st. Paul pack
ers absorbed by far the greater part
of the receipts, though less in proper
ton than last year. City and state
butchers and outside packers took
more in proportion to the number re-
ceived than they did a year ago.
