new CRAUTAUOUA
FOR north DAKOTA
MOUSE RIVER LOOP HAS SUCH
AN INSTITUTIoN-WILL BE
ON A BIG SCALE.

Tolley, N. D, March 30.-Anothel
chautauqua for North Dakota will be
opened this year as a result Of the
activities of George ]. Sauer of Tolley.
Mr.. Sauer is confident that the new
enterprise will be a complete success,
and he has arranged for a programme
for the first chautauqua which is un-
usually good.
The ch~autauqua grounds are locat-
ed along the banks of the Mouse riv-
er, and the event will be known as
the Mouse River Loop chautauqua.
The park lies on a line between Bow
bells and MohalI, being five and a half
miles north of Tolley, which is the
nearest station.
1t is expected that the chautauqua
will provide a summer resort for the
people of Renville, Ward, Burke, Bot
tineau, Divide, McHenry and Noun
trail counties, and Mr.. Sauer states
that about eighteen new cottages will
be constructed on the grounds this
spring. Last year there were a large
number Of people camped at the park,
and this year, with the chautauqua
programme as the feature, he expects
10 have from $50 to 200 families on the
ground during the entire time, with a
large number Of other visitors from
day to day.
The park is forty acres in extent,
and borders the Mouse river, being
at a splendid bend Of that stream. The
natural advantages are many, with
canoing, boating and with steam
launches available for long trips IN
the water.
July 4 is the date of the chautauqua
opening, and it will continue till July
is. The elaborateness Of the plan laid
down by Mr.. Sauer is indicated by the
fact that his talent includes such at
fractions as Captain Hobson, Father
Cleary, Caleb Powers, H. v. Adams,
English Opera Co., Geo. w. Balm, Ga
briel r. Macguire, Appola Concert
Co., and Brush.
Mr.. Sauer has made provisions for
an auditorium tent which will seat
$500 people, but next year he will
have a permanent building.
Real estate men of the northwestern
section of the state are particularly in
terested in the chautauqua, as they
expect a large number of land seekers
in this district about that time. The
added attraction of summer entertain
ment, the real estate dealers believe
will have no little effect in inducing
many to come to this section to live

SHOWS Plan OF
SCORING MILK
PuRLIc HEALTH DEPARTMENT
MAN AT BISMARCK Ex-
PLAINS THE SYSTEM.

Bismarck, N. d. March 2s.-The
state public health laboratories under
the direction of Gustav F. Ruediger
M. D., of the University of North Da-
kota, has a branch at the capitol
which is in charge OF Alfred Larson,
A. b, University of Wisconsin, and az
to the method used in scoring diaries
In this city, Mr.. Larson. who is also
milk inspector, has given the follow
ing explanation of its merits:
'sThe method of scoring used in Bis
marck is a development Of the sys-
TEN first used in 1904 by DR.. w
woodward, then health officer of the
District of Columbia. The first at
tempt at rating diaries from the stand
point of cleanliness vas improved up
on by Prof. r. A, Pearson (now New
York commissioners Of a~griculture) in
1905. During the last two years the
United States bureau of animal in
dustry has perfected it still further
and with it's aid have scored over 12,-
600 diaries.
"The chief virtues of the system lies
in its simplicity and in its fairness to
both producer n consumer. 1t is
so simple that any one after a little
study can use it. 1t is fair in that ii
gives credit to the man who is try
tng to keep his place in a clearly con-
Milton. Emphasis is rightly placed up
bn methods of handling the milk and
any one by inspecting the number Of
points given to methods used can
sudge whether a dairyman is doing as
well as he can with his equipment.
In itself the score card is an edu-
cation, as naturally there will be a
discussion of the values assigned to
each item. It will be found that each
one has a bearing upon cleanliness and
public health. For example Professor
Stocking has demonstrated the value
bf such a simple device as the covered
milk pail, by showing that by its use
M not taking any other precautions
he could eliminate enough dirt and
dust from the milk that it contained
only $500 bacteria per cubic cent?
meter, while milk obtained in an open
milk pail allowed enough contamina-
ton to get in to raise the bacterial
count to $4,000 per cubic centimeter.
When following out all the suggestions
as to cleanliness on milking he could
obtain a milk with only 700 bacteria
per cubic centimeter. But of course
all this care is of no avail if the dairy
man neglects to cool the milk proper
Iy.
FINALLY to emphasize the value of
the clean milking suit, which to many
may seem unimportant and unneces-
'sary, we will quote from an article by
e. Webster, former chief of the United
States dairy division when he says
Mixers too often wear the clothes
that have done duty for every other
work or the farm. Such clothing may
contain dirt from the hog pen, the
chicken coop, the horse barn, or the
swill barrel, and is entirely unfit to be
worn during the milking. A clean
milking suit has a two fold effect. 1t
will not of itself contaminate the milk
and If the mixer is required to keep
such a suit clean he must of necessity
keep everything with which he comes
In contact clean"

Welfare Of the Farmer
Discussed by Roosevelt
Former President and Once North Dakota Ranchnan Talked
on the Condition Of Country Lfe--DScuSsed It
From Every Side

st. Paul, Mimi, March SO.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt delivered the following
address in the auditorium last even
ing. His subject was The Welfare OF
the Farmers:
The purpose Of the progressives in
this campaign is to restore and secure
to the plain people that position OF cou
troll in the government of their own
country which in the working of our
institutions is being insidiously wrest-
ed from them. We make BUR appeal
alike to business man and professional
man, to wageworker and farmer. In
this speech / propose to deal chiefly
with the needs Of the farmer; for there
is no body of men whose economic
liberties and opportunities we pro-
gressives more earnestly desire to con-
serve and enlarge. Speaking to the
farmers, and to all others who have
insight to grasp the essential depend
ence of the nation on the producers Of
it's food, I shall briefly discuss two
great public questions of vital and far
reaching Importance; the conservation
Of natural and the better
ment of country life.
cit is one of the chief duties-and it
Is the highest privilege-of a president
of the United States to be the active
leader and exponent Of policies which
will help the people to obtain such Leg
islative and administrative reforms as
are required to meet any reasonable
popular demand which makes for the
common good. While I was president
I had found that in the first matter
the conservation of the nations re-
sources-the national conscience had
| been moved, and that in the second
the condition and outlook OF rural
! population-there was a widespread
feeling that things were wrong. Con-
s~equently / took definite action in the
hope and belief that adequate reme-
dies would be provided, and I now
stand for the revival and development
OF the policies thus initiated.
Conservation.
Upon conservation / can be brief,

first called attention to the gravity of
the question was the destruction of the
national forests. 1t happened fortu-
nately that this important asset of the
national wealth came, during my adj
ministration. under the charge OF Gift
ford Pinchot, to whom, more than to
any other man, is due the credit for
having this national peril brought
prominently to public attention. He

waste OF the nations supply of timber
with the incidental injury alike to ir-
rigation, water power and navigation
in our big riversl was only typical of
a wrong attitude of mind in the nation
at large towards our heritage and our
duty to the generations which are to
come after us.
The conservation idea caught the
popular imagination and the conserva-
ton policy rapidly took shape.
In the spring OF 1908 I called the gov
errors of all the states and territories
to meet at a conference in the national
capitol. There 1t was unanimously re-
solved that the great prosperity of our
country rests upon the abundant re-
sources Of the land chosen by our fore
fathers for their homes; that these
resources are a heritage to be made
use Of in establishing and promoting
the comfort, prosperity and happiness
of the American people, but not to be
wasted, d~eteriorated, or needlessly de-
stroyed, and that this material basis
is threatened with exhaustion that
