The High Dollar in Cows.

In later years dairying has devel-
oped into one of the best paying de-
partments of farming, with the
promise that through the use of bet
ter methods and improved appli-
ances it will become the leader as a
money maker. The issue Of The
Iowa Homestead of March %, will
contain many instructive articles on
all branches of dairying that should
be read by every farmer. They are
written by experts. One of the
strongest features is the exhaustive
treatment of the silo questionable
silo, silage crops, putting up silage,
the profit of feeding silage, and the
saving of forage crops which it ef-
fects. The Iowa Homestead and The
Reporter may both be secured at the
very low price of $50 per year.

few months ago:
Gentry, Ark, March 10, 1912.
Editor Reporter-Just a few lines
to let you know we are among the
land of the living and getting along
all right. We are having fine wealth
err today, the thermometer standing
80 in the shade and everybody out
doors working and enjoying this
southern climate. We are we'll, and
like our new home in the south very
much. Have had but little winter
here, although the old residents here
say it has been the worst winter
they have experienced. Some have
made gardens, and the road in front
of our home is dry and dusty. am
enclosing clipping from our local
paper in regard to our new orchestra
in which Raymond and Chester play.
Yours truly,
F. l.. Jenkins.
The clipping referred to is as fol-
lows:
The program given by the Bon
Ton Orchestra at the opera house
Tuesday night was one of the best
entertainments given this season,
and the audience was quite large,
Notwithstanding the night Yves
stormy.
The orchestra is composed of
Misses Esell Mitchell, Lena Hanshaw
and Irene Mitchell, and Messrs. Orla
Mitchell, Raymond and Chester Jen-
kins. all of whom performed their
parts in a faultless manner.
The program consisted of orches-
ira selections, solos, duets, ETC., and
the music was high class. The young
people are all artists and their enter
tainment was rare treat to our
people, and we'll worth twice the ad-
mission price. We hope they will
give another program in the near
future.

Editor Reporter and Friends-In
reading the accounts of the big snow
storms Iowa has ben having all win
ter, gives me an idea l want to tell
you how we have Jared. I suppose
YOU all think that Dakota has been
nothing but billiards., for it has al
ways had the name of having the
worst billiards. of any of the states.
Last Wednesday We had our first
big snow OF the season, and it was
about six inches in depth, but is
nearly all melted now. During jan
uary it was very cold, but since
George has arrived here and been
telling us of the cold weather back
there 1 think we have far surpassed
Iowa in a good winter. l can't say
if this fine winter extended over all
of Dakota or not, but can say it's
been as nice here as one could ask
for. All trains have arrived almost
on regular time and when they were
late it was due to the snow down in
Nebraska. Our mail route carriers
have never missed trip and there
has only been very few days but
what the autos were. running and
that was during the coolest weather
in January. Stock has had to have
but very little feed and all range
stock look fine. Hay is $1,000 per
ton, corn 55c per bushel, potatoes
$1.00, eggs 13c per dozen and best
butter Csc per pound.
George and Milo will go out in
Mellctte county in few days to
show George the land, preparatory
to filling. The lucky ones are arriv-
ing all the time now.
