FRIDAY, MAY &c, 1911.
BETTER pAIRYlNe.

There are two antagonistic features
this year to the dairying and creamery
industry Of this state. Cne is the su-
preme court decision on the express
rates--which is radically opposed to
the interests OF local creameries. An
other Is the short feed supplies OF last
year makes it compulsory for dairy
men to purchase grain for the cows in
order to secure anything like a salts
factory amount Of milk.
Added to these difficulties is the re-
lnctance Of North Dakota farmers to
milk cows. They prefer other forms
OF farm work that are less laborious
They dislike the milking process-and
the further fact that they are kept so
closely at home in looking after herd
of dairy cows.
Some North Dakotans have been
coaxed into dafrying and have had
their interest aroused by being induced
TO purchase one or two pedigreed, high
class cows-gradually working into the
business.
Others have been driven into the
dairying very reluctantly because of
their failure along ordinary farming
lines. These rarely make successful
dairymen-though occasional men of
this class finally become interested
and thank their stars they were forced
TO take it up.
The profits Of well conducted dairy
farm are assured. High class butter
and cream are always in demand. Men
who make marked successes of dairy
ing quickly become widely known and
the public. will pay fancy prices for
their products. In no line of effort |
does scientific and sanitary methods
bring more prompt rewards
Despite the fact it entails a great
deal of hard work and compels close |
attention-its certainty OF reward |

get very hard hit by the hail-and |

cut her yield per acre-as 1t does the

old bossy has saved many people
from the poorhouse. She had added |
millions to the wealth of the nation
and fewer states offer greater oppor-
tunities for success in dairying than |
North Dakota.
The bankers and other monied men |
Of many localities are assisting the
dairy movement by putting up the
money for car loads Of pedigreed cows. |
Efforts are being made to help along
all those who show an inclination to
engage in the industry.
There is no reason why North Da-
kota should not be as famous for it's
butter-as for it's wheat.

Tales Of the Street

A tall and impressive figure of rather
austere bearing at the recent session
of the legislature was Geo. p. Homnes,
known as "Homnes of Divide" who
was defeated for the speakership Of
the lower house by Captain Hanley of
Mandan.
"Homnes of Divide" was the appella-
tion given him on the floor of the
house and during the Cowan tmpeach-
n1ent trial in the senate where he fig-
ured conspicuously as chairman Of the
house board OF managers conducting
the prosecution. In itself the appella-
ton OF "Homness of Divide" carries
with IL a mighty suggestion Of power
and influence an instantly makes one
think Of John Randolph of Roanoke
and Charles Carroli OF Carrollton."
"Hommes of Divide" Is Of rather
serious turn Of mind. Mirth and levity
are almost minus quantities in his
composition and stand In the same re-
lation as the letter sx'' does to an
algebra problem when 1t represents
the unknown. He never smiles and
usually between the blinking OF his
upwards into clouds, he adds to the
solemnity of his personality, by asking
in the tones of a tragedy king, by
whose authority was that done?" or,
where Is the evidence?"
Mr.. Homes is constantly fearful Of
being misquoted III the press. II is
customary for him to tell the news
paper representatives that there viii
be nothing for publication" or course
that isn't pleasant music in the news
paper mans ears for he has an inn
patient public to satisfy. But that Is
Mr.. Homes failing. What cares he
for the cravings Of the multitudes who
are clamoring for the latest. Every
man has his shortcomings, and secrecy,
STEPPED in mystery, is a part of his.
Word came the other day of little
story about this proclivity OF "Homnes
of Divide" when he was at the home
of near friend who had Just departs
ed this mortal life. The story hasn't
been verified SO 1t will have 10, be
only goes to emphasize one of his
characteristics.
The door bell rang in the house
where the angel OF death had Just en-
tered. and Mr.. HOMES answered The
interloper happened to be a reporter
who had just learned OF the demise OF
the lam snted one.
There Is runor." gasped the re-
porter, THAT Mr. So and So has Just
died. Is II true?"
Yes" answered Mr.. Homness grave
", 'but he has nothing to say for pub
lication.' And he closed the door.
