WHERE YOUR CHILDREN
SHOULD GO TO SCHOOL.

Superintendent Sinner is in receipt
of many requests from dissatisfied
parents relative to where their chill
dren are to go to school. The boun-
Diary lines, laid out and published in
this weeks P~leasantville Press, were
decided upon after much d~eliberation
and the parents should try and CO.
operate with the Board of Education
and send their children to the school
in accordance with the lines as laid
out. 1t should make no difference
where the child goes; the teachers in
one building are just as competent as
those in another, and the railroad
crossings along the New Road and
the Shore Road are guarded by flag
men as we'll as safety gates. The
completion of the two schools now
under way will eliminate shortly any
disadvantage that you may have at
this time.

While the people of this country
want a tariff commission, they also
want the law for its establishment
very carefully drawn. They recognize
that at present practically all the in
ter-state business of the country is
under the espionage of Fl men, the
aggregate number of the Interstate
Trade Commissions and the Federal
Reserve Board, thus placing in the
hands of II men, a majority, the pow
err to determine questions of vital i'm
portance to the welfare of the whole
nation. This is too centralized Gov
eminent and must ultimately result
in destruction of popular and repre-
sentative Government.

Two years ago, we recall, the A. b.
c.. nations conferred on Mexican af-
fairs. The Niagara conference af-
forded a lot of correspondents an ex-
cellent opportunity to visit the Falls.
But did anything helpful or practical
come out of the conference? This
years A. B. C. conference was held at
Washington, and the country hopes
its suggestions will be fruitful. But
there are doubts. Mexico is to be
pacifed only by a strong policy, and
"watchful waiting" has weakened
American confidence in anything ema-
mating from The present Administra-
ton.

In the presence of this burdensome

Fitzgerald of New York, he asked:

ormous appropriations r not stop
per in some way, does not the gentle
, man believe that in the course of a
short time the Government will have
to come to a system of direct taxa
ton, such as it had in 1861 to carry
on the war;" Democracy surely re-
ceived timely warning.

30, 1915, amounted to $392,850, as
compared with $1,222,957 for the cor
responding half year of 1914. The
decrease may be said to be almost en-
tirely due to conditions brought about

BIG INCREASE

The recent statement issued by the
First National Bank in response to a
call from the United States Comp
troller in Washington, D. c., reveals
most satisfactory condition in that
banks affairs, to such an extent that
we feel special mention should be
made of it in these columns. The
First National has a capital stock of
$4,000. The National Banking laws
compel a bank to have a surplus
amounting to ten per cent of its cap
ital but the statement of our home
bank of March 4th, shows a surplus
and profit account of $57,980, an
amount considerable in excess of its
capital stock. Generally speaking, a
banks strength is measured by its
surplus and undivided profits, for
these two items, like the capital stock
of the bank, stand between the de-
positors and any possible loss. This
means, in the case of the First Ma
tional of Sauk Centre, that the bank
would first be compelled to sustain a
loss of its capital, it's surplus and its
stockholders liability, an aggregate
of $157,980 before the depositors
could possibly lose a penny. Sauk
Centre has reason to feel pround Of
it's strong banks

new FORCES MOVE FORWARD
Battle in the carpathians Continues
Unchecked,


London, April S.-The military sit.
uation in the Carpathians is compet-
ing with the prohibition question in
the interest of the British public.
Attention Is concentrated on the
Carpathian passes, where both sides
are bringing up heavy reinforcements.
Petrograd reports that the section
near the Uzsok pass, where Vienna
admits a retirement, extends for a
distance of seventeen miles. Vienna
claims a counter offensive movement
near Lupkow pass. where the Aus
trians report the taking of several
Russian positions, with the capture
of 1000 prisoners. A conservative In
~terpretation of the opposite reports
leads to the belief that the Russian
offensive at Lupkow has been check:
ed, while they have forced their way
through the Rostok pass, capturing
two villages on the southern side Of
the range.
In the Western arena of the war the
French continue their offensive move
ment between the Meuse and the Lor-
raine frontier. Their reported gains
in the ALLY forest indicate the posi-
bility of a new danger for the Ger
mans holding st. Mihiel, while the ad-
vance to the east of Verdun is re-
garded in London as threatening st.
Mihiel from the north.

is GOOD BUSINESS
Half of Success in Dairying Depends
on the Man in Charge and Treat
ment of Stock.

By A. ]. Mcclure, Extension Divis-
ion, Minnesota College of Agriculture
1t is sometimes said with much
truth that the feed and the COW are
only half in profitable dairying. The
man is the other half. In other words
mans ability properly to care for
the herd is equal in Importance to
the equipment. That a cow or a herd
of cows may average 25O or more
do it at profit, it is necessary that
the man in charge should be right.
Cows must freshen every year, and
that cow may do her best work
throughout her life she must have
about two months rest every year.
For the average Minnesota condi-
tions cows are most profitable when
they freshen in the fall and early
winter. This divides the labor of the
year more equally. The cows can
then be given their rest in August
and September, when the other work
on the farm is heavy.
One of the most important factors
in the care of dairy herd is to keep
the cows comfortable. Cows suffering
from the cold will not do their best
in milk production. The barn should
be kept moderately even in the cold
est weather. If the cows are turned
out to water in cold weather they
should be left out only while drink
ing. A good rule to follow in this
matter is to leave the cows out only
as long as a man would care to be
out without a coat on and without
working. 1t pays to have arrange
ments for watering in the barn. 1t
also saves labor. ...:.,.
Regularity and system are very i'm
portant factors in successful dairying.
The dairy work should be done by
the same persons daily and at the
same time. The feeding, milking,
cleaning out, and other work should
be done in the same order daily. The
milking should be part of the days
work and not left till after supper. 1t
is milking after supper that makes
the chore unpopular with the farm
help. ,...

seemed to be no other reason why GER
tain men were named to state offices.
But in the matter of these two latest
appointments, the qualifications of the
two men we'll fit them for the posi-
tions they hold.
Both are the more valuable to the
state, regardless of what their affil-
iations may be by reason of the SER
vice they have seen in their respective
lines. Both are chairmen of the
boards on which they serve.

Skim. Milk Makes Good Feed and Ma
nure Maintains Fertility-Both
Have Cash Value.
By A. ]. Mcclure Elk. Div. Minnesota
College of Agriculture.

When cows that give from five to
seven thousand pounds of milk year
are milked there are from four and a
half to six and a half thousand
pounds of skim milk left on the farm
for feed. Skim-milk, when properly
fed to calves, pigs and chickens, is
worth from Is to 80 cents hundred
pounds. The greatest value is real
ized from skim milk when it is fed in
small quantities, either to calves or
pigs. For exemple 20 pounds Of
Skim-milk a day fed to two calves
will give greater results in gain than
If the 20 pounds were fed to one
calf. Skim-milk fed in small quanti-
ties can be divided between calves,
pigs, colts and chickens and much
better results secured from it than if
all fed to the calves. More calves are
killed by indigestion caused by the
over-feeding of skim-milk than in
any other way. A calf may be raised
on skim-milk when the skim-milk is
fed properly and supplemented with

great growth during the first year as
if it had been fed on whole milk.
Skim-milk is rich in muscle and bone
forming material and thus valuable
feed for young animals.

The manure of a cow for a year,
that has been we'll fed, contains from
SIS to $25 worth of fertility. 1t is
worth that much in cash if properly
saved and applied to the fields. Big
crops on land that has been farmed
for any length of time are almost al
ways the result of manure. The sue
cessful farmer manures his land. In
dairy-farming more manure is avail
able than in any other branch of agri-
culture. Unfortunately the manure
is often left in piles in the barnyard
till half its fertility is washed away
by the rain. Manure should be haul
ed to the field and spread every day.

NOTE CALLED ANTI-GERMAN

Press Comment on American Com
nunieation to Britain.
Amsterdam, April S.-Commenting
on the published summary of the
American note to Great Britain the
Cologne Gazette says:
ut appears to be a note against
Germany rather than against Eng
land, and it is so formed that Eng
land may leave it unnoticed without
having reason to fear any serious
steps from the American government.
Against Germany, however, al
though in veiled manner, the re-
proach is made that she does not, OBJ
serve the principles of warfare as
recognized by civilized countries. The
note, in fact, gives the impression of
an anti-German measure"
