DAIRYING MAKES
GOOD .HEADWAY

WASHINGTON, Jan. Gin much
of the West cattle raising for beef
has long been the principal business
; said Secretary Wilson, "but dairying
is comparatively new. There is an
extensive market, however, for dairy
products; and especially in the new
ly settled regions it is found that the
dairy industry fills such a place in
agricultural economy that its devel-
opment is urgently needed.
I'm addition, a special enterprise
has been undertaken with creamery
patrons in Iowa, the object being to
determine whether it will pay cream
cries to carry on the same sort OF
work among their own farmer patons
for the sake of getting better quail
ity Of cream as material for making
butter. Here also record keeping has
been introduced, along with other i'm
proved methods and the effort is
made to discover the leaks that re-
duce profits.
"In the older states CT the North,
where dairying is already an estab-
lished and highly developed industry,
the work of the department outside
Of advice to individuals upon request,
consists chiefly in the propagation of
cow-testing associations and the i'm
provement of city milk supplies.
Cow-testing associations are societies
for cooperating in the heeping of
herd records by engaging man who
goes from farm to farm periodically,
makes observations and keeps rec
ords for the herds of all the members
of the association. BY this means
records are secured without the trou
BILE of expense involved when each
man keeps them for himself; and in
various other ways the cooperation
of the farmers is productive of profit.
The primary objects are to detect
and weed out infeior individual COWS,
and by the use of purebred bulls to
perpetuate and intensity the valuable
characteristics of the COWS that are
found to be good ones-thus raising
the average quality of the individual
COW and the total productiveness OF
the herd. There are IS cow.testlng
ASSOCIATIONS HOW III ~ StdLeo' SOlH-

Citations show that the profit was
doubled after our years work. For
instance, man with eight cows
found, the first month of keeping rec
ords, that he was losing 5 IL cents
per SOW, or a. cents on mis- herd for
that month. After three months
testing he was making profit of $32
month on the herd, and at the end
of the year his profit has increased
to $50 a month. This notable in
crease was due largely to the sale of
five of his poorest cows, and the pur-
chase of as many well!2roducing
COWS to take their places. In addi-
ton there were changes made in the
method of feeding, which conduced
to the result"

SAVE THE FLAGS.

A determined effort is being made
by the committee on memorials and
exhibits at the United States naval
academy to secure the restoration
and preservation of $50 battle flags
which have been taken by the United
States navy while in action. Among
them is British royal standard, the
only one ever captured by any nation
from Great Britain. Other nations
which have warred with the sturdy sea
fighters of this country have also con-
tributed, unwillingly to say the least,
flags of their land to the collection.
1t is a deplorable fact that want of
proper care has endangered the pres
ervation of these historical relics to
future generations.
The committee which is interested
in saving these valuable trophies has
asked congress for an appropriation
of $4,000 to do the work. From all
sections of the country comes a cry
that their request be needed. The
democratic congress is preaching econ
omy from the housetops, but the peo-
pie of the wtst are hoping that they
will not be blinded by their ambition

to lower expenses to such degree
that they will overlook this appropria-
ton. 1t would be money we'll spent.
Save the flags. The stories of their
worn and tattered folds mutely tell of
deeds OF heroism and valor far grand
err than historian ever penned. They
serve as an inspiration to the young
men and young women of the genera
tons to come to live as did their fore

ests of their homeland at heart, striy-
ing at all times to do right, and to

Whenever Sam Clark. Cap Henry,
and the Bystan' er get together, the
Average Citizen may stand at re-
spectful distance and gather coolies
of wisdom. The other afternoon the
three were lounging in the easy
chairs in the lobby of the Hotel Nc
Kenzie, their feet resting upon the
window stills, and were lazily watch
ing the blue smoke from their perfec-
tos curl celingward.
Say, SAM" the Bystander broke
the silence, "how did Minot ever get
it's name?"
"My boy, it's long and grewsome
tale Sam rolled his cigar to the
other side of his mouth, half squinted
his eyes, and became lost in reminis-
cence.
1T was in the days of long ago.
All this western country was one vast
barren stretch of rolling prairie. Fol-
lowing the Custer expedition to the
Black Hills in the early seventies
ther was rush of cattlemen to the
frontiers, and soon thousands of crit
tiers" were grazing over what, but
few years previously, had been the
haunt and home of the buffalo. When
the Great Northern pushed it's line
across the continent just south Of
the forty-ainth parallel the cowboys
used to round up their cattle and
drive them to favorable spot near the
Mouse River, where they would ship
them. The only building at the ship
ping center was a combination tav-
ern and saloon. OF course, when the
cowboys came within range after hav-
ing spent months out on the bleak
prairies, they generally drove their
cattle into a big corral while they
spent two or thfee days trying to
get rid Of some Of their accumulated
thirst. ~
There was still trouble with the
redskins in those days. and the cor
raj where they spenned their cattle
was in the nature of stockade. This
was of pine, and was naturally full
of knot-holes. Every puncher, in case
of an attack by the Indians, would
pick out knot hole and shoot
through it at the common foe. In
the course of time the boys marked
the different knotholes for their own
private use. When trouble came they
would rush out, and you could hear
them calling back and forth to one
another
"'Where's my knott and then, a
minute later, you'd hear one say,
"'Ah, here's my knot
THAT kind of stuck to the shipping
center, and later on. when more
shacks made their appearance and a
town sprung up. the people got to
calling it My Knot, which, after the
simplified spelling fiends finished
their deadly work. degenerated into
simple Minot, as We read it on the
map today"
The Bystander's eyes were shining
with excitement.
"Phew," he calculated, "is that
really true?"
Cap Henry slowly unfolded himself
to his full towering height, stretched
his arms, flicked the ashes from his
La Verdad, and gazed pensively out of
the window

CRUEL NEW YORK.
BY J. Roy Clair.
-: :: {: :. : il: = =: = : !: So


No one to laugh with; no one to
cheer,
Just a big city. with no one near,
No one to fondle you, no one to kiss,
All alone and lonely, no one to miss.
Laughed once yesterday. Excuse me,
l said;
Thought l was popular-woke up in
bed.
Walked down Broadway; touched by
a bum,
Seemed happy enough, nose tipped by
rum.
Went into a theater; saw good play;
Left it all alone, felt like a jay;
Sore I'm not a killer; they hook on,
Wonder who'd care if l got the con?
Chased skirt a mile; missed by hair.
Wouldn't even talk, she didn't care;
What's the use of living-ain't got a
chance;
Got to stay at home-soaked my
pants.
know the reason-it's coin l haven't
got;
With little money they'd call me
dad;
Must stall and listen, don't dare butt
in,
Am so far gone guess I'll take to gin.
If I'd die tomorrow, there's nobody to
sob,
People knowing probably say, Poor
Slob."
Going to get a hustle, be in the push;
It's matter of figures; then get the
cush.
Tough to be lonesome-tougher to be
alone:
Just big city, every ones a stone.
Hope things will better, maybe make
a friend,
If they don't, the finish-and then the
end.
I'll not be disheartened; beat this
town yet,
Too bad canned the ponies, might win
bet;
Could land a job at Macy's, that's work
all day;
It's the quick stuff lands-and also
better pay.
Thinking out a plan; real funny little
thought
Find girl unmarried, willing to be
bought.
Sell myself cheaply, not worth much
at that;
Might do as husband, at least could
stand pat.
No one to jaw at; no one to blow;
Just big cold without snow;
No one to scrap with; no one to yell;
Al alone and lonely; amt New York

A BROKEN RAIL.

onONEN NAIL.
You are driving along a country
road beside railway track From
over your shoulder comes low i'm
pera1ive shrek, the chime of a great
mogul You turn in your seat and
watch the onrushing train. A triumph
of mechanical skill, slender cars and
symmetrical. a powerful locomotive,
with it's short smokestack, like fleet
race horse with it's head close to the
turf. it skins along the rails with the
speed of an arrow. A thing of beauty
indeed, which sends the blood pulsat-
ing rapidly through your veins. and
thrills you with exhiliaration. You
take off your hat and wave it wildly
above your head, just from the pure
Joy which surges up within you. But
bark! A crash. a sickening roar and
grinding; shrieks of anguish dominat-
ing the splintering of wood; the clash
of steel against steel; burst of leap
ing flames, and death dances madly
DER the burning wreckage, the masses
of twisted steel and steam-enveloped
debris. 'Tis a busy moment for the
Reaper In a twinklins of an eye he
gathers in scores Of human lives,
sacrificed - subsequent investigation
discloses-because of broken rail.
Did you ever stop to think that
your life finds parallel in speeding
train. You start smoothly on your
journey. the track is clear, the signals
all set, and you speed on and on.
Without warning you suddenly find
yourself surveying the ruins of your
wrecked hopes. What was the broken
rail that plunged you to destruction?
The tremendous shock of the catas-
trophe numbs your sensibilities and
you are incapable of asking "Why?"
Grief is too potent, anguish too terri
BILE. As the heartache gradually
eases and naught but dull throb Of
pain remains, you then inquire, Gould
it have been otherwise?"
Yes, it could have been otherwise.
Proper caution would prevent such
holocausts and scenes of havoc.
The interstate commerce commits.
sion is at present securing evidence
for prospective legislation requiring
steel manufacturers to make rails un-
der government supervision. Track
patrols exercising constant vigilance
would be guarantees of safety. 1t is
but simple matter of taking neces-
sary precautions. It Is easy to dis
cover the cause, after fatalities have
occurred. Prevention of wrecks is the
object to be attained.
In starting on your journey toward
the land of the western sun be sure !
that the track is flawless. Guard
against all possible danger spots. |
Don't speed up too fast. Those are
safe running rules They will bring |
you in safety to your final destina-
ton. There may be broken rail |
ahead. Find it and repair the break |
before it accomplishes your downfall. !,
