Close skimming means more skim

A bit more feed now that the pas.
lures are getting shorter.
Is your bull gentle? Then get a
ring in his nose before night.
Draining butter well before sailing
will help its keeping qualities.
Better a nose ring for the young
bull than an accident afterward.
A brush to wash dairy utensils is
more sanitary than the time honored

A solid concrete base for the sepa-

The less time lost between milking

What many breeders consider bet

mites is an ointment recommended
by Professor W. X. Graham OF
Guelph, Canada, one who has made
a life study of poultry in the Domin-
ion.
II Is composed as follows: Mercury,
90 parts; lard, 25 parts; beef suet,
% parts; oleate of mercury, parts,
The suet, IL bought from the butcher,
will have to be rendered over fire
and poured inko the lard while 1t is
warm, and then stir in the mercury
and oleate of mercury. Use
table knife or spoon to do the
stirring. DO not put hands into
It. Should it prove too stiff to
easily apply as an ointment, thin with
a little cotton seed oil All ingredi-
ents should be weighed rather than

that the automobile will ever drive
them out of business. Instead of the
automobile causing a scarcity of
horses, il would be more reasonable
TO say that the scarcity of horses has

Farmers in Minnesota need not

OF Minnesota Stallion Registration
BoardD
Never in the history of the draf
horse has the future appeared sc
promising TO breeders as now, despit,
the statements of a leading speaker
at the annual meeting of the State
Veterinarians association at Mime
apolis that the automobile and auto
truck were driving IL out of bust
ness. There is no reason, in the lighi
of statistics. why the doom of thu
draft horse should be spelled by th,
auto.
Though the enormous number o
auto-trucks in the cities might leac
one to believe that they were crowd
ing the draft horse out OF business
actual figures do not prove it. Sta
tietics In the office of the Minnesots
stallion registration board show thai
the number OF sires used In this state
for horse-breeding has increased from

an excellent guide to conditions Of

the demand been so keen or the

Graft type Statistics from the U. S
bureau of animal industry show that
the number of horses in this country
has increased from 13,500.000 to 81 ;.
SOC 900 In the past decade. The value
o. all horses in this country has in
creased from si5 to sl15 in the same
period. This has occurred despite
the increase in the use of automo
biles.
First class draft horses have been
almost prohibitive in price this year,
because of the great demand for them,
and a team of drafters has often
sold as high as $500 to $1,000. The
demand for high class saddle and
carriage horses in the eastern cities
has been SO great that their prices
have been almost prohibitive TO
many who can afford automobiles.
All this should be very encourag-
ing to persons in the United States
interested in horse-breeding. When
horses have increased at so rapid a
rate the last two years. and prices

FAIR PROVES a
GREAT SUCCESS,
Bi-plane Flights Are the
Premier Attraction.

Three days of disagreeable wealth
er was what the weather man dish
ed up for the Dawson County Fair.
The management are to be congrat-
ulated for doing as well as they did
under the adverse conditions.
The successful airship. exhibitions
given here by Paul Studensky, the
Russian aviator were the best ever
: cen in the northwest On his first
flight Tuesday he was in the air 35
minutes, attaining an altitude of
some 1000 feet and on his second
flight on that day passed over the
city cut to the far grounds where
he circled the race track twice and
was cheered to the echo by the
crowds in attendance at the fair
Studensky's fights Wednesday and
Thursday were equally as success
full. Nothing but words Of praise
were TO be heard On all sides for his
exhibitions here. and Glendive feels
that she has more than made good
in the air ship lire. The diaappoint-
ment of July 4, 1911 has been for
gotten through the wonderful
fights of Studensky.
The opening day Tuesday was fit
tingly celebrated as Lower Valley
Day." The special train from Sid
ney, which reached here at 1000,
was we'll filled with the representa-
tive business men and farmers from
all the towns and communities from
the Lower Valley.
Wednesday special brought in a
large crowd from Beach and Wi
baux, while Thursday was made
Glendive day.
The agricultural display was the
finest ever shown on the fair
grounds. The display was not as
large as anticipated. but what it
lacked in. size was made up in quail
ty. Persons competent to judge
pronounced it the finest display they
had seen at any fair this year. We
doubt If any section Of the United
States could make a better showing
of home grown farm products than
those displayed at the Dawson Coun-
ty Fair.
The display of cattle, horses,
hogs, sheep al d poultry was larger
than at any previous fair and shows
| the growing. interest of the farmers
for better stock.
The ladies' department, which oc'
cupied new space under the grand
stand, was most tastefully arranged
and was thronged with visitor:
throughout the fair.

For county clerk and recorder g. N.
Burdick was nominated. It was ex-
pected up to the time Of the conven-
tiop that Mr.. Burdick would be nomi-
mated for county treasurer, but it
seems the delegates did not consider it
advisable to nominate him for that Of
fee. In fact it is said that many #
the delegates did not want to nominate
him at all but the leaders had prom
ised HIM nomination and as no one
else wanted it he was nominated with
out opposition.
Peter Anderson of Sidney was nom
mated for county treasurer. Mr.. An
derson is one of the largest farmers in
the Valley, has resided in Dawson
county many years and is spoken of in
the highest terms by his neighbors and
acquaintance. His nomination is con-
sidered the strongest one made BY the
convention.
Leo Cushing of Glendive was nomi-
mated for sheriff. Mr.. Gushing was en-
gagged in the stock business in the
county for several years. In recent
years he has been engaged IN the lee
business in Glendive. Some objections
are raised to his nomination, but they
seem to be such as are usually urged
against a person whose business re-
quires him to serve a large portion OF
the population of the city. 1t is be-
lieved that Mr.. Cushing will cut more
ice on his wagon than he will during
the campaign.
W. H. Frank was nominated for as.
SCISSOR. Mr.. Frank has resided in he
county for several years and has had &
varied political career. In 1908 ht
was known as a Democrat and was ap
pointed deputy sheriff at Wibaux. II
1906 he was nominated for county
treasurer on the Republican ticket
was elected and reelected in 1908. II
1910 he was candidate for the nomi
nation for sheriff bus was defeated ant
it is said rendered aid and comfort t.
the Democrats in 1910.
MIR. Leo Of Fairview was nomina
ted for county superintendent. He wa
nominated for the same office by tn
Republicans but declined the nomina
ton. It is said he likes the associa
tions Of the Bull Moosers better an
will accept the nomination.
Mr.. Hoar Of Savage was nomina
ted for county attorney. He is a new
conner to the county and novice
