Long Bow in Journal: If the
question is asked why should a man
harden his arteries, enlarge his liver
and befuddle his mind with the
booze that perisheth, you got US!
We cannot answer. Booze causes a
little temporary excitement and
thrill, but when you think of the
head, stomach and breath that it's
use engenders, and finally of the
varieties of disease that make not
only the boozer himself but every
body in his vicinity sick, the use of
alcoholic rum is surely the puzzle
of the ages. If you own a distillery
or block of brewery stock or rent
for big sum place where the stuff
is sold. your opinions are likely to
be somewhat modified on the subject
Of strong drink. There is nothing
so cheerful as big bunch of money
coming steadily in month by month.
We have often wondered if wecould
rise above the delightful influence
of big money coming to US monthly
from the liquor business. Could
you? We think we could now but
money does look awfully good.

The first announcement of the re-
turns Of the 1910 census for the
various counties of Minnesota ap-
peared the past week, showing that
while the state had made gains in
population of 1924, 313, considerably
more than half of this gain, or 49,
1863. was in the three cities of Mime
apolis, St. Paul and Duluth. Red
wood county did not realize expec-
tations and pass the twenty thous-
and mark in population, but, it did
better than it's neighboring county
of Renyille, which suffered loss of
$40 while Redwood is credited with
a gain of 1854. Upon comparison
with the state census of 1905. how
ever, we find that Redwood has fall
en- off 1,783 in FIVE years, Lyon
county $50. Lincoln 1 ,O2O. Twen-
ty-eight counties Of the state in all
show a loss during the past ten years,
Blue Earth county showing a de-
crease of nearly three thousand.
While the loss to the cities in this
county has been considerable, the
greater number of people who have
left this vicinity during the past ten
years haye joined the procession to
Canada and the Pacific coast states.

conducting a dairy the last eighteen

conducting q dairy the last eighteen
years, composed of average cows
such as the farmer Of Minnesota
owns. we have found that the COM
mon COW is capable of producing
$50 pounds of butter fat a year, a
gain of more than 100 pounds. This
gain has been made by good care,
the use of ordinary farm grown
grains for the chief part of the ra-
ton, and the addition of enough
mill products to balance it. An av-
erage Of $27 a COW has been lost
through ignorance of common meth
DDS of dairy feeding. With So, 000.-
900 lost to the state each year, the
need for improved methods becomes
strikingly apparent.
''The gain Of 100 pounds Of butter
fat year for each COW is not the
only loss the state is suffering. In
place of increasing the fertility Of
the soil hy'feeding the grains neces-
sary for this balanced ration, the
farmers are selling them, slowly but
surely robbing their farms Of the
richness which nature has given
them.
During the last year there was
grown in Minnesota more than $751;
O00, 900 bushels of farm grains,
weighing 14,400,000,000 pounds,
These cereals have withdrawn from
the soil 286, 900, 900 pounds of nitro
gen and 100000, 900 pounds of phos-
phoric acid. No matter how well
the farmer may rotate. some of this
fertility must be carried back to the
farm.
Nitrogen can be returned by the
growing of legumes. such as clovers
and alfalfa, as is taught at the farm
school, but no such remedy can be
applied in the case of phosphates.
If the farmers would but feed their
COWS, to make a balanced ration,
the by-products of the mill, such as
bran, shorts and middlings, much Of
this fertility which is being lost
would be returned. In this way
not only would they make a heavy
inroad upon the $27,000,000 which
they are annually losing in dairy
products, but reap an additional
profit in increased yields of corn,
wheat, oats, barley and hay.

The so called Appeal to Reason.
the Kansas paper which reads a
whole lot like an appeal to preju-
dice, is getting a good deal of free
advertising out of the recent con-
viction of its editor for violating the
postal laws by printing on the wrap
pers of one of its editions an offer of
$1,000. for the kidnapping of Govern
or Taylor and returning him to Ken
lucky. The offer was intended for
advertising and seems to have ac-
complished its object. While Editor
Warren is serving out his six
months Imprisonment, the easy
dupes of his sheet will probably be
sending the coin in to the concern in
his aid. If the Appeal to Reason

ton which will make it easy for men
to commit fraud in selling oleomar-
garine is not inspired by love for the
poor man who wants a cheap SUBJ
stitute for butter"
The whole proposition may be thus
summed up: Oleomargarine is now
made to taste and smell something
like butter. The manufacturers and
few retail dealers want the privi-
lege of putting it upon the market
so that it will look like butter, thus
making it easy to commit fraud.
Every good citizen should be inter-
ested in effective pure food legisla-
ton, and the oleomargarine law is
just such legislation-no more, no
less.

The sentencing of Mrs. Eliza Goe-
bel of Moorhead to five years I'M
prisonment for malpractice as a
midwife. resulting in the death of
an unfortunate girl, seems terribly
severe, considering that the con-
demned woman so sentenced is 81
years old. The only justification of
such cruel sentence is that it may
serve to deter some other practi-
toner from unlawful practices.
Hence we call attention.

Trapping
Reporter:

Marshall Reporter: Trapping
started last week in real earnest and
several good catches were reported.
J. D. Lanoue was probably about
the most fortunate trapper, as his
catch will probably net him some
where around $130 for that one
week. Fred Adler is also trying
out an experiment in furs that will
be watched with interest here,
though elsewhere it has been proven
a success. Instead of buying hides
and fur only, he is trying to secure
the live mink. These he places in a
pen made especially for the purpose
fenced securely on all six sides, so
that escape through the side fences,
underground or over the top is i'm
possible. His idea is to get better
fur by keeping the animals for sew
eral weeks in captivity and possibly
secure an increase in number
through breeding. Mink are now
worth So to S., where just cauguht.
At the height of the season they will
be worth probably about double this
figure.

A great deal of gush is being
spouted about state re-apportion-
ment, Gov. Eberhart serving notice
at the Brainerd convention that he
would call an extra session if the
legislature failed to act on re-appor-

buncume, for we do not believe that
there will be any appreciable OPP
position to fair re-apportionment
at the coming legislature. Pretty
cheap buncome, too.

be followed. It will open the eyes
