reasons why, namely:
l. The COW is out OF the open pas

BLAME PHYSICIANS FOR
GROWTH OF DOPE HABIT
Druggists Say Prescriptions and Not
Patent Medicines the

New York.-Blame for the prey

habit was placed on the shoulders Of
physicians, who prescribed the drug.
at a meeting of druggists here to-
night to protest against the recently
enacted city ordinance prohibiting the
sale at retail of any preparation con-
tanning morphine or it's salts except
upon doctors prescription.
The ordinance is aimed primarily
at paregoric and at stomach remedies,
according to members of the board of
health who were instrumental in OBJ
tanning its passage. Caswell Mayo,
one of the druggists, said he had
made a canvass by mail of several
sanitariums and the replies convinced
him 80 per cent. of the victims Of
drugs formed the habit as a result of
using prescriptions given by physi-
clans and only per cent. from using
proprietary medicines.

Minneapolis. = With Pure Milk"
as the slogan, a campaign was
started that will be carried to every
corner of the state by the dairy ex-
tension of the department of agricul-
ture, University of Minnesota.
G.. P. Grout, assistant to Prof. T. L.
Hacker, of the dairy department,
spoke on the subject to some hundreds
of young men and women from all
over the northwest here to attend the
school of agriculture short course for
farmers.
StereOpticon pictures were shown,
with which Mr.. Grout illustrated his
This is the first time he has given this
lecture, but he intends to furbish it up
a bit, more lantern slides, and marcn
on the enemy's country-the regions
where dairy farms are not run in a
sanitary way.
It's case of like COW, like milk. If
"bossy" is kept in filthy, ill-cared-for
quarters, the milk will be little short
OF murderous, say the crusaders. 1t
is the aim of the dairymen at the big
state school to show the people why
pure milk is needed and how it can be
had.
Sunlight Chases Germs.
"One thing to remember" said Mr.
Grout, 'is that sunlight is the great
est foe of disease. Sunlight is a puri-
fer, a germ-destroyer. That is why
stables should be lined with windows
wide, clean, health-giving windows"
The operator of the picture machine
flashed on a view of an old-time hay
stack stable. Just one door, propped
up with a couple of sticks, was shown.
The interior. was described as dark,
dank, redolent of miscrobes-the place
they used to keep the COW that fed
the baby.
Neat Barns Are Shown.
Other pictures were tossed on the
sheet-spick and span places where
dwell cows of the upper class-neat
barns with cement floors and patent
stanchions and plenty of windows,
where cows may ruminate over a con.
tented cud and bless the hand that
milks them
There were other things Mr.. Grout
told of. There were diagrams OF
germs, big bacilli and all their rela
tions, and there were more diagrams
showing how the germs get into the
milk.

agriculture, was intended mainly fol

MANY PROBLEMS THRESHED OUT
Change In Method of Voting to Rob

-New Secretary Is
Heard.

st. Paul, MINI State fair mat
ters and a plan for the reorganization
of the government of the fair made
the committee room, and not the cham
ber of either body, the center of
interest
Following the adjournment Of SEN
ate and house, joint meeting of the
state fair committee was held, under
the call of Senator Stebbins. The
meeting was held in the house judi
ciary committee room and with the
senate and house members of the state
fair board and the new secretary, John
c. Simpson. A lengthy discussion
threshed out every angle of the state
fair. The members of the board told
what they had done in cleaning up
the situation at the fair, presented
their plans of operation and asked the
cooperation of the legislature.
There seemed to be a unanimity of
feeling to the fleet that a definite
change should be made in the voting
character of the State Agricultural So
'ciety. 1t was thought necessary that
representation be fixed by law and
not left in it's present elastic state, so
that new societies could be made over
night for the purpose of carrying the
election in the interest of any candi-
date or Clique, as was done year
ago. 1t also was held that the admis-
sion of proxies should be stopped.
The question of treasureship also
was brought up. In the minds of some
of the legislators it was thought best
to place the handling of the funds in
the hands of the state treasurer, but
this was objected to on the ground
that the present system was more elas-
tic and more suited to the needs of
the institution. Following the confer
ence a bill will be drawn for submis-
sion to both houses.
Shot at Anti-Pass Law.
In the senate interest centered to
some extent in a harmless looking bill
introduced by Senator Moonan asking
that children in school districts be car.
ried at half charge. This is the result
of the introduction of another bill COM
pelling street railways to carry police
men and firemen free of charge, and
is looked upon in some quarters as
making break in the present impass.

/ SHORT COURSE FOR FARMERS.
Big Attendance at the School Of Aeri
culture.

neapolis.-Much interest is report
ed in all parts of the state in the farm
ers' short course which began Jan. IL,
at the school of agriculture and about
200 sturdy sons and daughters of the
soil are foregoing the husking bees,
barn dances, harvest homes, spelling
bees, sleighing parties, candy pullings,
meetings and all the various other
pastimes usually associated with the
slack season on the farm for the pur-
pose of taking up the instruction out
lined. Preparations were made to
take care of as many mature farmer
students" as may desire to avail them
selves of the advantages of four
weeks course.
The short course for farms was es-
tablished by the University of Mime
sofa to meet the needs of any farmer
who is unable to take up the regular
courses of agriculture. There is no en-
trance examination, and no age limit
is prescribed. Any man or woman in
terested in farming and the better
ment of farm life is eligible.
The time devoted to this course Is
SO limited that the faculty has endeav-
ored to compress much valuable infor-
nation in a nutshell. The classes are
combined for the morning lectures,
and divided into sections for the aft
ernoon practical work, which will be
given simultaneously on various farm
and home topics, in several rooms.
Many Subjects Outlined.
Some of the topics touched upon in
the course of study and lectures are
Agriculture, comprising the selec-
ton of soils, planting, developing, har-
vesting and general farm management
Dairy Stock Judging" in which the
instruction given in judging dairy
stock will be based upon the actual
performance of animals bred and
reared in the dairy; DAIRY Husband
ry," covering the characteristics of
the various breeds of dairy cattle,
their comparative adaptability for
many phases of dairying, and the style
and type of COW that has demonstrate
ed her worth as large and economi-
cal producer; Animal Husbandry,'
in which a series of lectures will be
given on animal breeding.
The chemistry of plant growth and
the chemical principles involved in
farm life, and their application to the
production of crops, forms the basis
of other lectures. Other subjects will
deal with the conservation of soil and
methods of cultivation; dressing and
curing meats and the use of farm i'm.
plements will be illustrated, as far as
possible, by samples. All the differ.
ent agricultural devices will be
touched upon. In addition to this,
four lecture periods will be devoted
in farm workshop hints, such as splic.
ing rope, making rope halters and
rope betting. and tempering of simple
tools.
Business Methods Urged.
Business methods are advocated in
large measure to apply to the farm
and this feature of the Minnesota
schools work has attracted consider.
able attention. and was recently rec.
commended for adoption by the Uni.
versity of Illinois by a party of ex.
perts who were here. The short
course aims to4dexote quite little
time to instruction on business forms
business arithmetic. and the keeping
of simple farm accounts and records.
