Mrs. Neuenburg
: Called By Death
Grandma" Neuenburg Succumbs to
Severe Attack of Appendicitis
Friday Evening.
FUNERAL HELD THIS MORNING
MOurned Sincerely by Many Sons, Two
Daughters And Many Grand
Children
(By Her Pastor, Rev. Heilscher.)

(By Her Pastor, Rev. Heilscher.)
Last Friday evening December 10Th
1913 at her home at North Redwood
came the summons of death to Mrs.
Cecilia Neuenburg after short but
painful illness caused by appendicitis.
The deceased was born November
5, 1929, at Herzhorn, Holzstein Eu-
rope, and lived to be past eighty-four
years. In July 1851 she was joined
to Herman Neuenburg in holy we'd
lock, they living together most hap
PLY for nearly sixty years. To them
were born eight children, seven of
whom survive her; one having died
in early childhood. Her husband died
about three years ago.
In 1857 Mrs. Neuenburg emmi-
grated to America and settled on a
homestead near LIE Sueur Center,
MINI. In 1876 she with her family
moved to Renville County where they
lived on farm till 1890, when they
moved to North Redwood, which has
since been her home. She leaves to
mourn her death five sons, two daugh-
tiers, grandchildren and great grand
children, also two half brothers, Peter
and George Shipman, other relatives
and host of friends.
Of her children the following were
present at the funeral, Mrs. D. Pope
of LIE Sueur Centre; John, of Milbank,
S. Oak; Frank of N. Redwood; Jacob
of Wabasso and Henry of Olivia. Mrs.
Aug. Lindeman and William of Cal
ifornia were not able to be present.
Peter Shipman of LIE Sueur Centre
was also present.
In 1863 Mrs. Neuenburg experienced
a change of heart in a thorough con-
version to God under the ministry of
the Evangelical church. At that time
she joined the Evangelical Church and
has ever since led CONSTANT Christ
ian life. Her home was an ideal
Christian one; she was an objection

RATE JANUARY

Minnesota railroads have decided on
a method of applying the Bendixen g
cent passenger fare law, effective jan
uary l, which meets with the appro-
val of the state railroad commission.
The net result of this enactment will
be the increase of rates for distances
up to five miles from 2 to 8 cents
mile, after January 1.
The law was passed by the Legisla-
ture because of the general belief that
Minnesota would lose the rate case be-
fore the Federal Supreme Court. 1t
established 2-cent rate for roads
earning 81 200 a mile or over on pas
senger traffic but provided that the
companies should charge 8 cents for
distances up to five miles. Minnesota,
however, won the rate case and fat 2
cent fare has since applied to all dis
tances.-St. Paul Dispatch.

Van Dyke Says;

"But how seldom Christmas
comes only once a year; and
how soon it is over-a night
and a day. If that is the whole
of it, it seems not much more
durable than the little toys one
buys of a fakir on the street
corner.
"But surely that need not
and ought not to be the whole
of Christmas-only single day
of generosity, ransomed from
the whole servitude of a selfish
year. If every gift is a token
of personal thot, a friendly feel
ing, an unselfish interest in the
joy of others, then the thot, the
feeling, the interest, may re-
main after the gift is made"

County Agent Neal
Makes years Plans
Will Introduce More Alfalfa; Stimu-
late Boys to Plant Corn; Keep
Clover Here
BUSY ORGANIZING FARM CLUBS
Enthusiastic And Ready to
Cooperate
BUSY ORGANIZING FARM CLUBS
(By Ed. Barensfeld.)

While the County work in Redwood
County which was inaugurated early
last month, and which will be in
charge of County Agent J. E. Neal,
has not been worked out specifically
as yet, there are several features of
the campaign which have been
launched and are beginning to be
taken up by the farmers with con-
siderable enthusiasm.
The general plan and the leading
campaigns which are practically I'M
der way at the present time are to
increase the acreage of alfalfa. The
idea is to get at least an acre or
two of alfalfa on every farm the
plan being to buy the seed in one
lot so that a uniform, clean, pure
grade of seed can be obtained at
minimum price.
Another point is to stimulate more
interest in the corn crop by means
of interesting the boys of the county
in the acre yield contest for the COM
ing year. The plan is to have at
least one boy from every rural school
in the county enter the contest, with
the idea of encouraging the testing
of seed corn and a closer study of
corn and it's needs with reference to
rotation of crops, growing clover, etc.
Keep Clover Here
The idea is to keep all the clover
grown in Redwood County right here
in the County. There is a place for
it. The live stock feature will be
one of the most important as Mr.. Neal
believes that Redwood County is we'll
adapted to finishing off butcher cattle
for market. There is an ample sup
ply of natural wild grass in Redwood
County which is factor in develop
ing beef. 1t is planned, however,
to seed more acreage to tame grasses,
as this is conceded to be better than
the natural wild variety for this pur-
pose. Some of the feeders around
Redwood Falls, and throughout the
county say that the silo is also big
anC important factor in fattening
steers. Nearly all of these men have
one silo, while several have more.
Present Cholera
Much work is being done right now
toward stamping out and taking pre-
tentative steps against more hog
cholera for another year by means
of thoroughly disinfecting and clean
ing up pens, etc. While the losses
from this disease were heavy, the
farmers are again restocking their
farms with hogs and it is believed
that with the precautions that are
being taken against cholera, the
chances are in favor of the farmer.
Mr.. Neal is also busy organizing
Farmers Clubs throughout Redwood
County. He reports hearty co-opera-
ton in this work on the part of the
farmers, and believes that they will
derive much benefit from associating
with each other at these meetings
and exchanging ideas pertaining to
farm questions. 1t is the aim of
Mr.. Neal to help make these clubs
strong agencies for social, educational
and financial betterment in Redwood
County. Here the farmers will have
an opportunity to exchange ideas on
practical problems, as we'll as cooper
ating in buying and selling.

CAUTION AT FARROWlNG TIME
Animal Should Be Carefully Watched
and Fed on Slop Raton-Suppiy
Fresh, Dry, Clean Bedding.

A few days before farrowing the
pen in the central hog house or in
special portable house
When the udder of the SOW becomes
1istended and milk can be drawn from
The teats she may be expected to far
row in "a hours. She should then be
closely watched and fed slop ra-
ton rather than a dry feed, to keep
her bowels open She should have a
medium supply of fresh, dry, clean,
1ustless bedding. Barley straw or
wood shavings should be avoided.
Little pigs are very sensitive to cold
and if they arrive during cold weather
they must be given special attention.
II litter is farrowed in a small port
able house the air may be consider
ably warmed by hanging a lantern
from the ceiling, and doors will add
greatly to the comfort of the animals.
In large hog house it is best prac-
ice to put the little pigs as soon as
| .arrowed into a tight wooden box with
clean straw and cover the box with a
blanket. The pigs will nestle together
and keep themselves warm Should
he weather be extremely cold hot
bricks may be put in the bottom of
the box and covered with an old blan-
ket with dry straw on top for the pigs
TO rest in. Little pigs should be kept
In the box for "a hours longer, taking
them out for short time every two
hours to nurse.
A SOW should be kept quiet and fed
little, if at all, during the first "a hours
after farrowing. She may be given a
drink of water, followed by light
bran mash. The feed is then gradu-
ally increased up to the tenth day
when full ration may be fed. BY
thus being careful milk fever in the
sow and scours in the pigs are pre-
vented.

TREATMENT FOR LUMPY Jaw
Removal of Growth While in Tissues
by Use of Knife Is Considered
Satisfactory Method.

The most satisfactory way of treat.
ing lumpy jaw is to remove the
growth with a knife when in the
tissues only. The animal is thrown /;
the skin is cut over the tumor, and
the swelling removed by cutting
around it in the healthy tissues. If
hemorrhage is large the vessel may
be tied or taken up with the forceps;
bleeding from smaller vessels may be
scared with a red-hot iron.
The wound should be washed with
an antiseptfc in one per cent. soln-
ton after the tumor is removed, and
then packed with antiseptic gauze OR
cotton, and the wound stitched up.
The next day remove the stitches
and treat as an open wound.

with psoriasis for nearly two years.
Portions of my arms and limbs we're

The looks of it was horrible, which
made it very unpleasant for me. 1t
itched little at times.

cured me for a month, but it always

Grain is thus fed more economically
