BIGSTONE FARMER
MAKES MONEY

Bunch Of Dakota Cattle.

Made Handsome Sum on Feeding a
Bunch Of Dakota Cattle.
Minneapolis, July 12-With a check
for $4,000 in his pocket, L. ]. Heating,
of Graceville, Mimi, left for home last
night after selling three carloads of
steers at South St. Paul for 9 cents a
pound on the hoof, the highest price
ever paid in that market.
Mr.. Heating estimates the profit on
the cattle, which he bought In North
Dakota last January, at upwards OF
$1,10O.
There we're 81 steers in the ship.
ment and their average weight was
1885 pounds. They weighed approx
imately $50 pounds each when pur-
chased. They were stall fed on corn
on the ear and consumed about 1900
bushels. A small amount of ground
barley was also fed.
The original cost of the steers to
Mr.. Heating was $4,000. The feed
cost from $1,000 to $4,000. 1t was de-
clared by cattlemen that the steers
were the finest they had seen in years.
II applied scientific feeding princi-
pies, that's ALL" said Mr.. Heating in
explaining his success. II believe my
experience shows what farmer can
do in cattle raising in Minnesota. I
would have had much larger profit
but for the high price of corn.

A SENSIBLE DEFENSE MOVE.

The creation of an inventive board
headed by Thomas Edison to scientif-
ically keep our country's defense
problem in hand, as proposed by Sec
rotary Daniels, would appear to be
a most sensible move. Instead of
spending twenty-million dollars apiece
for huge fighting machines like the
superdreadnaughts which have not
struck decisive blow in the world
war as yet, but which apparently are
carefully put away in specially guard
ed harbors to keep them from being
sunk by the invisible submarines, it
would seem prudent to give the larg-
est possible encouragement to the
proverbial inventive genius of the
American to keep ahead of the world
in matters of defensive craft and their
rapid manufacture in case of need.
Failure Of our government boards
to give proper credence to new inven-
tions in the past have driven some of
the greatest geniuses to foreign lands,
as was the case of the pioneers in
aerial fight.
One incident dating back to the
Civil war is Of interest. When the
father of ironclads and revolving tur-
rets, John Ericsson, built his first Mon
itor, he had carefully proved his guns
and their penetrating power on plates
prepared in exact imitation of what
spies had reported that the Merrimac
was protected by. When the gunboat
left on its historic mission the war
department ordered the powder
charge prescribed by the inventor be
cut In two. Mr.. Ericsson carried the
modification to his dying day that the
Merrimac was not sunk in the first
half hour of the battle. The last shot
fired which did penetrate and cause
the Merrimac to retire had been back
ed by the large charge prescribed by
the inventor, which had been used In
desperation by the crew after their
narrow escape of being rammed.
The scientific development of Ger
many, now working ceaselessly in con-
junction with the military organiza-
I ton is what gives that country it's
superiority in equipment, and seems
1 capable OF solving almost any prob
lem that presents itself.

A GOOD YEAR TO. BUILD A sILo
Good Advice From the County Agent,
Based on Present Weather
Conditions.

It now looks as tho there would be
no mature corn this fall. The crop
is fully one month behind what it is
in normal years, and nothing short
of a miracle in the way of favorable
fall weather, will result in ripening it.
Soft corn is very poor feed; it is
almost impossible to grind it, and is
very hard to keep in the crib.
Unquestionably, the best way to
make use Of immature corn is to feed
it in the form of silage. One man,
living near Willmar, states that last
year after the crops were nearly to.
tally destroyed by hail, he planted
corn about the 25th of June, and altho
it did not get ripe, he put it ir the
silo and this furnished the greater
part of the feed for his stock during
the winter.
When corn has little chance to rip
en-, it can be left until the first hard
freeze, then cut and placed in small
shocks Ito avoid moulding) and
later placed in the silo when con-
venient. This can be done after sew
eral weeks if necessary. Many farm
ers use mature corn in this way after
it has been cut several weeks. A far
mer living near Willmar during the
spring months, cut and put in the silo,
corn fodder that had stood out all
winter, and got much better feed
than the dry fodder would have made.
Recently, a silo census was taken,
covering the greater part of Kandi-
yohi County in which over fifty farm
ers were interviewed. Every silo
owner expressed himself as being
highly pleased with this form of feed
ing corn, and not one admitted that
he would be without a silo.
1t was commonly stated by farmers,
that they would borrow every cent
to put up silo, if they did not al
ready have one on the farm.
There are about 100 silos in Kandi-
yohi County. 1t is surely good in
vestment in any year. This year it
will prove to be Godsend to anyone
fortunate enough to possess one.

Boston to Chicago, taking meals at
way stations and sleeping in a day
coach for less than $25; if one travel
in Pullman car and dine on the
train, the cost of the trip will be near
er $35. If one travel Limited" the
cost will be perhaps $45. The cost
OF carriage, to begin with, is twice as
high as it should be; the Pullman rate
should be cut in two; the restaurant
rate might easily be reduced so per
cent, and tips ought to be eliminated.
The trip to Chicago from two princi-
pal eastern points is referred to only
as an illustration.
Tens of thousands of people in the
United States who would gladly see
America, If not first at least some
time, are prevented from seeing it at
all by the almost prohibitory cost of
travel. Trains half empty pull into
union stations and single line stations
in all parts of the country every hour
in the day and every day in the year
with many cars fewer than the loco
motive might haul, and with these
cars half empty simply because the
rates offered repel rather than invite
travel. It is safe to say that there
are few lines in the United States
which could not quadruple their pas
senger business if their rates were
brought within the means of all the
people DESTROYS of seeing the country
and visiting distant friends. Yet in
the face of the economic lesson
taught by the postal service and the
street railway service-in the face of
common experience showing that the
way to ultimate gain on a large scale
is through quick sales and small pro-
fits-the railroads have always fought
for the maximum, always fought
gainst the minimum rate. They are
fighting on the wrong side of the
question today. Forty-seven western
railways are applying to the inter-
state commerce commission at the
present time for the privilege of rails
ing their passenger rates, when In
order to obtain the business and the
profits that await them they should
be praying for the privilege of hack
ing the present rates to pieces. To
prove that they are deserving of the
privilege they seek they are Offering
evidence going to show that their in
dence going to show that their in
comes are decreasing. And they
seem to think that If they can prevent
a still greater number Of persons
from patronizing their lines they will
increase their earnings!- Christian

WHY NOT DO THIS At WlLLMAR7
Saving 10 Being Effected by New
Plan Of OiIinq Streets at
St. Peter.

St. Peter Herald:-This city has
some of the finest streets in the state,
and the reason for this is the pains
that are taken to keep them in good
condition. For several years it has
been made practice to lay oil on the
streets, a practice that has proved
more than satisfactory. This year the
city council again ordered the streets
to be oiled, and the work is now in
progress, though being done by a diff
ferent method. .~>. -
In the past it was necessary to use
two carloads of oil, but this year,
due to the new method of application,
one car (6500 gallons) will prove sui
ficient. The oil this year is much
thinner than is usually used, and. is
put on with a specially constructed
sprinkler. In the past it required
from fifteen to twenty men to do the
work, the oil being poured on the
road and worked in by means of stiff
brushes, making it necessary to close
the streets receiving treatment to
traffic for the time being.
The oil is now being applied thru
this specially prepared tank wagon,
passing through double acting force
pump, which is operated by sprock-
cts arranged on the trucks of the
wagon. The oil leaves this pump un-
der great pressure, and is forced into
the ground, beneath the surface and
so does away with the sanding of
the years past, and which leaves the
streets open to traffic without inter
ruption.
It is the intention of the city coun-
Gil to do away with the practice of
sprinkling the streets with water, and
oil will be used hereafter. This change
will mean a great saving to the city
probably amounting to several thou
sand dollars.
Owing to the fact that the street
will soon be torn up for the construc-
ton of the sewer, North Minnesota
avenue has been oiled for only one
block north of Broadway. The oil
has also been placed on Broadway
from Minnesota avenue over to the
Omaha depot.
The southern end Of Minnesota
avenue is being oiled as far as the
Kasota road, and If the amount of oil
is sufficient, it will be carried on to
the Kasota road as far as the bridge
It is such things as this that make St.
Peter the attractive little city that
it is.
