The Happiest Man.

Have you read this description of
the happiest man?" It's going the
rounds of the papers and the identity
OF its author has been lost, but it reads
very well anonymous:
The happiest man in the world is
the common, everyday chap who makes
his own living, pays his bills and has
the respect of his neighbors. He saves
little money as he goes along. but
doesn't try to get corner on the local
output and he is not slave TO ambition
or to society. He never expects to wear
out his trousers in the senate, and
when he glides out of bed in the MORN
ing he never wastes any time trying TO
pick out the right tint of socks. sus-
penders and necktie that will blend
with the general effect He only wears
high collar when he feels like it, and
when his pet corn begins to jump he
jerks out his knife and cuts four inch
cash in the side of his shoe and moth
ing is said about it in the local paper.
de never has topoultice his conscience.
He believes in the doctrine of live and
let live. When he encounters one OF
the needy, he doesn't stutter with his
pocket book. The plain plug of man
is happier because he els satisfied and
he doesn't spend half of his time
yearning for something his salary will
not permit him to buy Give us more
plain men and the world will be better.

Northern Farmers Find
Mutton Production
Profitable.

amy farmers of upper Wisconsin
are finding profitable outlet for at
least portion OF their crops by feed
foclss of weil-bred mutton producing
sheep. Those who cannot readily OBJ
tain sufficient help to carry on dairy
farming or who do not desire to feed
beef cattle are taking advantage of the
general scarcity of meat by breeding
and feeding mutton for the market.
This is especially true of those who
have upland Or hilly pastures, for
sheep can proftably use lands which
are practically useless for cultivation.

BEEF PRODUCTION
PROFITABLE In
NORTHERN Wise.

The opportunities for profitable beef
produstion on the cheap grazing lands
in northern Wisconsin are already at
tracing the attention of shrswd and
prosperous cattle raissrs and feeders
from the corn belt states.
Thousands of acres, thick with clo-
yer, timothy, blue grass, and wild pea
vine, are rapidly being stocked BY far
mers from outside the state who know
a good thing when they sec it. Recent
IL B. Il. Abbott, secretary of the Hi
nois Live Stock Breeders Association,
purchased and stocked large farm In
Jackson county.
With these advantages in their favor,
farmers already living in this section
are in position to produce and sell
another exsellent leash crop" market
ing their grains through the stock
yards rather than the elevator.
The dairy farmer cannot afford &c
spend the returns from his farm and
herd in running free lunch stand
for boardee cows.
1t is easy enough 90 tell which are
the absolutely WORTHLESS cows and get
rid Of them, but it's those innocent
looking loafers which give just enough
milk to keep up appearances and sneak
along for two or three years without
being found out, that cause the big
leak in the dairyman's profits.
How can Wisconsin dairymen stop
these leaks?
Hew can we improve the production
of our cows, increase the Value of our
stock. and build up our herds?
These are the questions which have
been satisfactorily answered by many
of Wisoonsin's successful dairymen.
Their methods will be described and
representatives of their types of COWS
will be carried on the wisconsin Live
Stock Breeders Association Special
which will be at Wabeno ON June 4th.
The demonstrations will be given at
each stop by Auch well known dairy
men as George G. Humphrey of the
College of Agriculture, Charles L. Hill,
president of the American Guernsey
Cattle Club, w. j. Gillette, president
of the Wisconsin Holstein Breeders
Association, Fred schribner of the
United States Dairy Division, and s. A.
Baird. president of the Wisconsin Live
Stock Breeders Association.
Dairying, however, wilt be only one
of the phases of livestock farming con-
siaersd. How to get bigger and bet
ter horses on WiBconsin farms, and
make money by doing SO, will be con-
sidsred by such well known horsemen
as DR.. A. S. Alexander, in charge of
the stallion enrolment, College of
Agriculture, and j. q. Fuller, secre-
tary of tho Wisconsin Horse Breeders
Association.
The cause of beef, hogs, and sheep
will DO championed by prominent
stockmen such as L. p. Martiny, treas
urer of the Wisconsin Live Stock
Breeders Association, j., T.. Tormey,
secretary of the Wisconsin Shorthorn
Breeders Association, and George Nc
Kerrow, superintendent of Wisconsin
Farmers Institutes.

cANADRs HUGE GRAIN BINS |
Port Arthur Paper Is Pceved at the
Mention Of Kansas City Elevators.

From the Port Arthur Canada, Evening Chronicle
Kansas City gains the attention Of
the New York Evening Post and is
given FIVE inches OF space in that ad-
mirable newspaper by reason of in
creasing the capacity OF a grain ele-
vator there. The Evening Post says:
"when the additions and alterations
to its huge grain elevator at Kansas
City now under way are completed the
Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain rail.
road will have one OF the largest
plants Of its kind in the world"
The present capacity OF the Kansas
City product 10 one million bushels.
When It gains its promised stature
and becomes lone of the largest in
the world" II will have a capacity of
2,133, 900 bushels.
At the mention Of grain elevators
the twin ports at the head OF the lakes
prick up their ears and take notice.
The name OF LloydGeorge at Tory
garden party, or Of President Wilson
at bankers convention catches at
tention no quicker than the word "ele-
vator" in the hearing Of Port Arthur
Fort William man. Toronto prides
itself on its churches; Pittsburgh
specializes on millionaires; Chicago
has its pork and Boston its pork and
beans--as for us, we rise to fame on
the bins OF our elevators, and he who
says zone of the largest" about any
old two-million-bushel outfit in Mis-
souri, must withdraw the statement oil
name the place and weapons.
II the Evening Post had said zone
OF the largest In Missouri" or in the
general but expressive American
phrase had said some elevator" we
wouldn't have minded II 30 much, but
when 1t describes this etunted Mis-
souri, receptacle as "one of the larges
grain elevators in the world" then 4
is time to kick. Why, two-million
bushel elevators are 80 common here
abouts that the secretary Of the boar
OF trade does not point them out 4
show clearer than that what we thin
of llion-bushel elevators.
When we have pointed to the $500
000-bushel C. N. r. elevator and tn
1900, ,0O0-bushel c. p. r. elevator an
the $500, ,000-bu G. T. p. elevator
then to the $500, ,000-bushel Dominio
Government elevator which Is onl
the first unit Of what is to be a 81
million-bushel plant, by that time tn
air is so full of millions that tn
listener would be annoyed IL we boti
cred him with mention of mere tw,
million-bushel affair. So we just lum
the balance together and describe tn
grand total OF 5-million-bushel capa,
ity already standing at the head {
the lakes.
Upon the basis upon which Kansa
City got five inches of space in tn
Evening Post we claim a complimel
. tary writeup Of at least three column
and in the article we would state tht
, in one respect we are like Kansa
/. City-when 1t is a question of big ell
vators we also are from Missouri.
