CLEANLINESS

Cleanliness is Of the utmost i'm
portance around the dairy barn.
The quality of sample of milk,
with special reference to its baete-
rial count and dirt content, can al
most always be taken as an index of
the sanitary conditions surrounding
the cows supplying the milk. Clean
milk cannot be produced from dir
ty cows Cows cannot be kept clean
IN a dirty stable. Stables cannot be
kept clean, from hygienic stand
peint without due regard for the
rules Of sanitation ID all of its va
rieus aspects.
Bulletin q, of the Farmers Lii
brary Series, contains many useful
hints on barnyard sanitation and the
prevention of diseases. Write to the
Office of Publications, University
Farm, St. Paul, for a copy-H.

GREAT N. S. C. FESTIVAL.

A short time ago, November 9th,
Gustavus Adolphus day, had been
set by the North Star College Board
of Directors as the day for dedicat-
ing the new building. Governor
Eberhart and President Vincent of
the Minnesota State University were
invited to be here; but both had al
ready made arrangements for that
date; and hence the North Star Col
lege Festival must be postponed for
several days. The Governor has
stated that the 11th would be suit
able, and very likely that day will
be chosen. We hope to have Presi-
dent Vincent and Superintendent
Schulz also present. Next week we
hope to be able to give some details
and names Of some of the promi-
nent speakers. 1t will be a big
event; people from far and near will
be present. Everybody plan to
come to Warren and N. S. G. It will
be the greatest event of the year in
this part of the state. .,<..:z..s

T. R. FALLS ELECTRIC LINE

The work of acquiring the right
of-way for the first section of the
Minnesota Northwestern Electric
Railway Gompany's railroad line
was commenced the first of the
week. The line will pass through
the townships of North, Silverton,
.GloNerleaf and Goodridge, located SO
as to accommodate the greatest
number of prospective shippers.
If satisfactory arrangements can
be made with the. property owners
over whose land the new road will
pass, it is probable that the work of
construction on the first twenty or
twenty-five mile section will start
this fall.
AS has been previously stated, the
main line will run in a general east
.erly direction, the territory north
and south to be accommoda with

team defeated the Hallock High
School by score Of 27 to Z in hot
u contested game played here last
Saturday. In the first quarter
neither side made any points, but in
the second quarter the Halloek boys
made a touchdown and goal kick.

.couraged, however, and during the
first quarter Of the second half, Cy
Anderson, t our star end, made
touchdown. The ball was hardly
put into play again before Webster,
our full-baek, made line plunge
and over the line. In the last
quarter the Warren boys had the
ball all the time, making long gains
by forward passes. Muggy Pihlstrom
our haf-baek, crossed the line twice
with the ball.
DR.. Gratzek served as referee and
gave a fair deal to both sides.
The boys go to Halloek Saturday
to play a return game.

Steenerson Has Bill to Relieve
Homestead Settlers.

Washington, Oct. 20 =. Following
his announced intention to present
a bill for the relief of settlers in
Northern Minnesota, Representative
Steenerson today introduced a bill
providing: That as to all home
stead entries on ceded Indian lands
in the state of Minnesota, heretofore
Or hereafter made, it shall be suffi-
cient at the time of final proof that
an amount equal to Sl.25 an acre for
the whole area entered has been ex-
pended in draining, clearing, slash
ing, grubbing, breaking, or other
wise preparing the land for cultiva-
ton, although the area actually put
under cultivation may be less than
that required by the homestead
law.

How County Agents Can Help thu
~. II. Farmers.

One of the great needs of Mime
sofa farms is more and better live
stock, and the county agents are
helping to- selve it. One of them
A. D. Anderson of Pope county-re-
ports a method of getting at the
farmers who are careless about
their stock. He takes few farmers
who are growing scrub stock,
keeping scrub dairy cows for ex-
ample, and in his automobile whisks
them off to the farm of some man
who is doing better things. The Wis
iting farmers have talk with their
host, examine his herd, get figures
of the production, and are told how
the results that are described have
been obtained. The secret is a
handsome, pure-bred sire. Perhaps
this animal has been long enough in
the herd, and the farmer is looking
for a purchaser. One of the visitors
buys the animal.
Incil COllftS d1 CApCl EcllCC SUllIC-
thing like that of a southern Mime
sofa farmer, who was quiek-minded
enough to- get '*tip'' just from OBJ
servation. In 1908 the average out
put for each cow In this mans herd
of ten was ITO pounds of butter fat.
In 1912 the output for each cow was
27O pounds, the herd containing the
same number of animals, but ami
mails bred for better production.
This farmers gain, then, was 1000
pounds of butter fat year. This at
80 cents; a pound meant an increas-
ed income of $500 year. Now $500
is 6 per cent on $4,000. In other
words, this farmer increased the
value of his farm plant $4,000 by in
vesting $3.50 in a good sire.-Minne-
apolis Journal.

FARMERS WEEK
Apply Now For Short Courses in
Agriculture and Home Econo-
mics, 1854.

Communities desiring Farmers
Week Short Courses should make
application at once. Before appIica-
ton is sent in. Consider carefully
whether the farmers and business
men are willing to spend time and
money in preparing for the course,
by (a) securing suitable rooms for
stock Judging, corn Judging, home
economics, exhibits of corn, grain,
vegetables, home economics work,
and evening ertainments (b) Sc
curing at least Is persons to attend
the weeks course who will pay one
dollar or more apiece to help de-
tray local expenses, and (c) solicit
ing premiums for all classes of ex-
hrbrts. Unless the community is
ready to undertake this work it will
be practically impossible to secure a
course this season.
This year the short courses are to
be more complete than ever before.
1t Us planned to- have a car Of horses,
cattle, corn, grain and other agri-
cultural exhibits to be taken to each
locality. This feature alone should
cause the leaders in educational
work IN each community to work
harder than ever to push for the

New Bulletin on Mutton.

Mutton and lamb should be us-sd
to a greater extent by our people
for the following reasons: It is as
cheap as beef and the stewing cuts
are generally the cheapest meats
that can be purchased. Clean'y
dressed mutton and lamb is just as
palatable as any other class of meat
and many people maintain that it
has a better flavor. Whole or half
carcasses of mutton may be used by
the family before the meat spoils.
They furnish a change from the
constant use of beef and pork.
Sheep have very few contagious
diseases and fewer sheep caroasses
are condemned in packing plants
than any other class of animals
Mutton is not excluded by any large
class of people on religious
grounds"
The above is quoted from the in
PRODUCTION to Extension Bulletin 45,
by T. G. Paterson, Of the Minnesota
University Agricultural College. In
this bulletin. Professor Paterson
gives full directions for killing and
dressing sheep and lambs.
This bulletin is being distributed
to about 5000 people, and $1,000
more are ON hand for distribution,
free, to all applicants who address

.ty Farm. st. Paul.

WINNIPEG ELEVATOR BURSTS
1900, 900 Bushels Of Wheat Spilled
on the Ground

Winnipeg, Oct. iS-Early this eve
ming, with a crash that could be
heard for miles, the million bushel
elevator at Transeona, four miles
from Winnipeg, Just completed and
filled with 100000 bushels of
wheat, sank ten feet on its founda-
ton and then burst asunder, spilling
the grain al lover the tracks and ad-
jacent ground. ...
Built Of Concrete
The elevator was built of steel
and concrete and was the property
OF the Canadian Pacific railway, To-
Gated on their new. cutoff, which
runs three miles north of Winnipeg
and was built this year to allow
grain trains from the West to reach
Ft. William without going through
Winnipeg.
The elevator had been receiving
grain less than a menth and it is
believed that the districts all around
is underlaid by streaks of quick
sand. -.
The loss of the company or con-
tractors will be quarter of a mil
lion dollars at least.
Winnipeg, Oct. 20-Alr the heavy
machinery contained in the cupola
Of the Canadian Pacific elevator at
Transcona, four miles north of this
city, slid off today with a crash that
could be heard for blocks and piled
up on the ground. 90.
The big steel tanks of the elevator
are now inclined IS degrees and one
side has sunk Is feet, squeezing up
a great quantity of earth, 20 feet in
height. The Canadian Pacific rail-
way reports that there are millions
of bushels Of wheat in the elevator,
but they are not yet certain wheth-
er it can all be saved. The company
is unable to get any of it out, owing
to the machinery being rendered
useless. They are. afraid to, send
cars to the 65,OO0,O00 pounds of
wheat On the inclining steel tanks.
Engineers state that there was some
fault in the earth exeavated when
the elevator was built.

FOR THE SAKE OF THE WORLD s GENERAL WELFARE.
The Georgian does not expect to convince fanatics

all reasonable advocates of arbitration and peace
The Georgian has led the of the battle with
fight for international law and court that
really advance the order and justice of the world
BUT NOTHING COULD DO GREATER HARM TO THIS
CAUSE THAN THE SPREAD OF THE NOTION THAT EV-

WOMAN's DRESS is NOT IMMORAL
Those Who Saw That 1t Had Better Check Up Their Own Principles Of
Virtue Tor to the Corrupt All Things Are onuptConrolng
Female Dress by Law Is a Joke Says Dorothy Dix.

And this is the attitude of tbs
average man. He has the mod.
esty that springs from BEING
clean-minded. What he notices
about a woman's clothes is mere.
ly whether they are pretty and
becoming, not if they are a lure
to sensuality. So far as tina
American man is concerned. he
could qualify morally and mental.
ly as a Knight of the Garter, and
his motto is. "Honi soft lui nal v
pense"
After all, custom and fashion
make the law that determines
what is proper and improper in
such matters. The Turkish wom-
an outrages decency if she ex.
poses her face to the public eye,
We see nothing immodest in
viewing a woman's countenance.
Our grandmothers would have
been esteemed bold if they showed
the tip of their slippers.
|
one perceives anything any more
vulgar in the sight of foot than
a hand.
In the summer, on the bathing
beach, no one looks a second time
at a woman with a skirt that
comes only to her knees though
the police would run her in If she
should appear on Peachtree in
such an abbreviated costume in
the winter.
When a Bills a Joke.
Time was when a woman in
tights on the stage was truly
shocking, but such a costume is
just part of the spectacle now to
which we DO not give a second
thought nor a second glance. The
South Sea Island girl who wears
a sweet smile and a bead neck
lace is just as modestly attired,
according to the styles in her
country, as a Fifth Avenue dame
in a sealskin coat is, as judged
by the standards of her set
The truth is that propriety is
in the eye of the beholder We
see in everything just what is at
the back of our own minds, and
those who find the present fash
ions of tight skirts. and Dutch
necks, and peekaboo waists de-
moralizing need to do something
TO correct their own moral OBJ
liquity of vision. It's their men,
tai attitude that's wrong. not the
styles.
or course, any bill TO regulate
women's clothes by law is joke.
Women dress to please men, and
men are pleased with the way
that women dress. or else women
wouldn't dress that way. The
normal. wholesome minded man
finds nothing to cavil at in the
present styles, or else his sweet
heart, his wife and his daugh-
ter wouldn't be going about in
pipe-stem skirts and silk stock
ings and pumps.
The Ohio legislator would have
to seek further than women's
clothes for the source of immor-
! ality.
