Stands High Among Leading Com
mOnwealth In Amount of Butter
And Cheese Produced
OVER s2o,o0U,ooO WORTH IN 1909
Farmers Rapidly Turning From Small
Grain To Stock And Dairy For
Profits

A bulletin summarizing the data
collected for dairy products in the
United States for 1909 has just been
issued by Director Durand of the bur-
eau of the census. 1t was prepared
under the supervision of John Lee
Coulter, expert special agent for agri-
culture.
There were 5,14O,869 farms in the
United States for which the enumer-
ators reported dairy cows on April Is,
1910. For only 4,413,333 of these
farms were dairy products of any kind
reported as produced in 1909, and for
only 4,O21, AGO was the quantity OF
milk produced in 1909 stated.
The total number of dairy cows on
farms April Is, 1910, was reported as
2O,625, 900, while the number on farms
which reported the production of any
kind of dairy products in 1909 was 49,
746,OOO, or 900 per cent of the total
number of farms which reported the
VI Ulllh lCOC was 4O,OOc-
900, or 779 per cent of the total.
5,OOO,OOO,OOO Gallons of Milk
The total production of milk re-
ported for 1909 was 5,814,000,0 900 gal
Ions; the true total probably exceeded
this by not less than 10 per cent.
There were, on April Is, 1910, 16,O69,-
900 dairy cows on the farms reporting
this milk. Assuming that there were
the same number in 1909 the average
production of milk per cow would be
1862 gallons.
The total value of dairy products of
farms in 1909, exclusive of milk and
cream consumed on the farm, was re-
ported as 1896, Alb 900. This repre-
sents the sum of the receipts from the
sale of milk, cream and butter fat
amounting in all to 1872, 403,O 0O) and
the value of all butter and cheese pro-
duced on farms, whether sold or re-
tanned for home use amounting to
s224,O1O,OOO)
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1913-01-07

In total value of dairy products sold
by farmers in 1909, the East North
Central division ranked first, followed
by the Middle Atlantic and West
North Central, these three divisions
together reporting 70 per cent of the
total for the United States.
Average Value of Butter
The average value of butter sold by
farmers in the United States as a
whole was 24.2 cents per pound in
1909, as compared with 1877 cents in

ONTARIO CELEBRATES
THE FOURTH THIS YEAR
Industrial Parade Will BE
Given And Merchants
Preparing Floats.

The people who are In charge OF the
program for the Fourth OF July al On
tario, are busy these days. rounding
the matter into shape to make a
thoroughly complete day Of enjoy ment
and profit.
IL has been decided to have parade
and the merchants are now arranging
and planning their floats and tnrnoufs.
A committee Is busy arranging for
a speaker ard others are busy selecting
the singers and readers to I'LL IN the
literary part of the exercises.
Another bunch is busy with the
sports and they are going to offer some
thing worth while. including every
thing from foot race to an auto race
and some even think II would be
about right to have an airship race,
but this seems little too high for
this year and will probably be cut
out.
The visitors are to be looked after
and seats and other convenienoes ar
ranged for them so that the tired ones
NAV rest when there is something
going on that they are not especially
interested In.
For music they have engaged two
hands. The New Plymouth band
has been here and made friends ana
the weiser baud was also here and
made most favorable impression
They are both reported as stronger
and better this year than ever and with
lot of new cacthy music that is war
ranted to start your feet moving
even If you are opposed to such things
auds when you get tired in the even
ing they are arranging to give you
a display of fireworks that will bring
forth all the exclsmations In the
cstalog and cause you to invent
new ones.
or course there will be all kinds
of opportunities to dance during the
day and evening.

Of helping you in the winning
Of this contest.
Right now is the time to en-

ways commendable qualities
They go Far and are prime re.
quisites of success, but in some
very good causes some people
have been known to become al.
together too jealous. The elm
ination of competition seems to
have been hammered into a
business axiom these days, and
various methods have been re-
sorted TO. Just at this time the
Argus wants to state for the
benefit OF persons who will par
tisipate in this great contest,
that all sorts of wild stories are
likely to be circulated as to the
activity Of some candidates.
While the contest is just start
ing is good time to get that
fact firmly fixed in your mind.
You are going to hear that Miss
+. Jones has an organization OF
friends behind her sworn to
make her, the winner. If by
circulating such a report or per.
mitting it to be circulated, Miss
Jones succeeds in soaring out
other candi dates, competition is
reduced just so much, and win
ming is made easy. 1t might be
stated this is not a race for the
faint hearted. None Of these
firms is able to stop the circula-
ton OF these stories, but the bet
ter Judgment Of candidates
themselves should tell them that
no one is able to secure more
votes in the given time than
themselves.
Your experience in securing
votes is the best barometer OF
conditions. Just remember the
same conditions you are meeting
must be met by every other can
didate; that the field is clear
and clean and no one possesses
an advantage you may not make
your own.
SQUARE DEAL ASSURED
Candidates are asked TO re-
member. they are engaged in a
great big business proposition
In the campaign for votes candi-
dates the assurance they are re-
ceiving the moral support OF a
newspaper and mercantile firms
who never have, would not and
could not afford to ally them
selves with any proposition that
was not urq questionably fair to
all concerned.
Contestants may approach
their friends with the full know
ledge that the conditions of TINS
contest are absolutely fair; that
every vote turned in will be
voted for the candidate turning
it in, and that the responsibility
of these merchants is not q mat
ter of guess work. This is a
sober, serious minded, generous
appeal to the people OF Ontario
and vicinity.

desired results. Unless your influence
and authority, are exerted in behalf of
the schools, your children will not de-
rive highest benefit therefrom.
All pupils, except little children.
ought to have regular periods at home,
with reasonable conveniences and with
strong encouragement from you. Teach
your children to make school their bus
mess, to take pride in their work, and
to render strict and willing obedience.
The public school is a partnership.
All support it. Therefore all are en-
titled to its benefits. But the school is
also a democracy. There all are equal.
John Overalls and Mary Calico must
stand, at school, on equal footing with
Augustus B%roadcloth and Victoria Silk.
Equal benefits to all. Special privil-
eges to none.
We believe that children should be
trained to behave in school with the
same decorum which is demanded of
all good citizens outside of school. So
it is no kindness to allow children to
romp, yell and jam about the school
buildings at intermission seasons.
Neither is it fair to the candid, in
dustrious pupils that the frivolous, the
lazy, or the i'll disposed be allowed to
indulge in the disorders or Irregularities
which make for injury and ultimate
ruin.
We,' your teachers, propose to con
tinue kind and courteous in all our re-
%lations with pupils and community.
We will gladly consult with any parents,
or guardians; and all reasonable re-
quests will receive prompt and respect
full attention.
Throughout the county there a tend
ency to do poor work, and "hurry so as
to make grades, pass examinations,
and finish the course of study on time"
Let all join in respecting and support
ing public school machinery only so far
as it proves itself worthy. When the
machine works wrong, let US alter or
discard it. Courses of study and grades,
with all that pertains to them, must be
made to fit the children. To fit chill
dren to "a system is a work Of folly
and evil.
T%horoughness is Our aim. Thus we
have devoted about a month to teach
ing of partial payments, that important
subject of constant occurrence in the
business world. The pupils understand
it. They a apply it. But a teacher
who is merely anxious ito get over the

in such subject, with the result that,
in business they must hire an expert or
