Of the types Of draft horses which
they recommend to the Minnesota
farmers, showing some Of the Mime
sofa champion stock, also some Of
their driving and saddle animals. He
recommends the heavy horse as
against the medium weights for the
larger farms of Minnesota and Dako-
ia, for farm purposes.
After the demonstration Of the
horses, beef animals were demonstrate
ed, and afterwards Dairy cattle.
After dinner, which was served in
the large dining room where they
serve about three thousand meals a
day to students, at cost of about
seven cents a meal, we made an in
spection of the barns and experiment
plats on the farm, which were very
interesting and instructive.
Professor Hecker, in speaking of
the COW industry in Minnesota, stated
that Minnesota was behind several
million dollars per year now, because
they had stuck too long to the idea Of
a dual purpose COW, but that they are
seeing their mistake now, and are
turning their attention to stricter
lines, either to beef or dairy cattle,
and discarding the dual purpose idea.
Professor Hecker gave a number Of
rations for milk cattle, all Of which
can be obtained by writing the Mime
sofa A. C. for bulletin No. 100.
After inspecting the farm, the boys
went to St. Paul or Minneapolis, as
they pleased, and at TAO left Minneap-
oils for home, except those who had
obtained extensions on their tickets.
Aside from the information OBJ
taind on the trip, in Wisconsin and at
the Minnesota A. c., the getting to-
gether Of men from all over the coun-
ty and getting them acquainted and
working along the same lines, is sure
ly going to result in benefit to the
county, which is bound to increase.

Antler Farmer Cuts Throat.

G. O. Kjeseth, farmer living near
Antler, attempted to commit suicide
by cutting his throat with razor. He
has been laboring under religious de-
fusion. A neighbor found the man
wandering in the field with razor in
his hand. He had slashed his throat
from ear to ear, but did not sever any
Of the vital parts. The neighbor took
the razor away from the man and took
him to Antler, where he is recovering.

Ross Man Wins Exciting Contest.

Harry Hardy, a prominent Ross far
mer, won the nomination for county
commissioner Of Mountrail county
from the third district in an exciting
three handed fight. Mr.. Hardy re-
ceived 1853 votes; Holland, received las
and Carlson, his other opponent, 115.
The nomination practically means Mr..
Hardy's election. While the other
candidates and their friends are no
doubt a little disappointed over the
result, they should be good losers and
most likely will turn in and assist Mr..
Hardy in the fall. He has the right
kind Of stuff in him to make q first
rate commissioner.

Specialist ExplainsC Cause
Of Stomach Trouble

VALUABLE ADVICE TO SUFFERERS
There are many different forms Of stom-
ach trouble" said a weIl-known specialist
recently, but practically all are traceable
to excessive acidIty and food fermentation.
That is why the results obtained from the
use OF drugs are usually so disappointing.
Admitting fermentation and consequent
acidity Of the food contents to be the under
lying cause Of most forms Of indigestion. it
naturally follows that the use Of a reliable
antacid. such as the pure blsurated mag
nesia which is so frequently prescribed by
physicians. will produce better results than
any known drug or combination Of drugs
Accordingly I almost invariably advise those
who complain OF digestive trouble TO get
