Newspapers of neighboring towns
made pleasing mention last week, of
the Mineral Point business mems ex-
cursion, which is to take place Thurs
day, Aug. 3.
The Platteville Journal: These people
go in their own special train, accom-
panied by band of 26 members. They
wish to meet as many people as possible
in the forty minutes they remain here.
Let us greet Mineral Point as we should
on this booster visit, and make an effort
to be on hand when they come here.
The Platteville Witness: The prin
cipal purpose of the invasion is a social
good time; incidentally they will tell
us something Of the Old Reliable South
western Wisconsin Fair, to be held
August Is IS II 10, at Mineral Point.
A reception committee has been APP
pointed to meet our friends. and an
auto ride for them is being planned.
The Warren Sentinel Leader: Let
us all turn out and give our friends a
hearty reception.
Galena Gazette: They are anxious
to meet with as many Galena people as
possible. Galena citizens will no doubt
turn out and give the excursiOnists
hearty welcome. 1t has been suggested
that the matter be taken up by the

In one Of the most interesting OF

growing is urged by Carleton r. Ball

1T is only thirty-fve years" he says
"since the first grain sorghums were
introduced into the United States. 1t
is only twenty years since any Of them
have become crops Of recognized i'm
portance. Although grain producing
varieties had probably been introduced
from time to time since the early
colonial days, none had remained in
cultivation.
1.-THE first permanent introductions
were the two durras, brown durra and
white durra. which reached Califor-
MIA In 1874 under the names brown

Always Have Plenty Of Herbs.


No garden can be considered com
plete that does not include a goodly
variety of herbs, for nothing can quite
fill their place in the household.
The seeds of annual sorts should be
sown early, but the perennial varieties
(and many Of the best are that the
seeds sown in midsummer will pro
duce strong plants that may be freely
cut from the following year
Make the soil rich. mellow and fine
before sowing the seed When the seed
ing plants are large enough they May
be transplanted to the border beds, or

The leaves should be cut when fully

Dairy Doings.

What do you do when you discover
a leak in the milk pail? Stop it, of
course. But do you ever think about
stopping the leak caused by poor
COWS? The latter leak is the bigger
of the two.
A COW so MIXED that she does not
enjoy the operation will gradually re-
tire from the business of giving milk.
Do not milk her in a cold wind, or a
hot stable nor where flies torture her,
nor in a muddy barnyard.
A COW will do much better if always
cared for and MIXED by the same per-
son. Cows do not like strangers, so
when your visiting friend offers to
help milk say NO" or not quite so
much milk as usual will be the re-
suit
Midsummer often brings much suf-
fering to stock because the water sup
ply fails or becomes low. Pains should
be taken to provide an ample sup
ply of pure water. not only because
it is humane so to do. but for the
more selfish reason that the animals
will thrive and produce much better.
