/. A..GOLDEN WEDDING.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Wallace, Honored
Pioneer Residents of the City,
- Celebrate this Happy Event .
in their Lives.

Comparatively few of all those
who enter the matrimonial state are
accorded. the privilege Of travelling
together hand in hand thru fifty
years Of married life, but Mr.. and
Mrs. w. A. Wallace Of this city are
among the favored ones in this re-
spect. In honor Of the happy event
the honored pioneer couple were ten
dered reception at the Masonic
Hall last Saturday evening by the
members Of the Eastern Star and
their friends. The rooms and tables
were tastefully and appropriately
decorated, and congratulatory re-
marks and speeches were made to the
happy pair. Mr.. Wallace was pres
.ented with fine gold chain and Mrs.
Wallace with an Eastern Star pin.
An elaborate dinner was served, fifty
lit candles adorning the table Of the
bride and groom. An enjoyable even
ing was spent by all participating.
Mr. and Mrs. Wallace were married
in southern Minnesota fifty years
ago, shortly after the close Of the
civil war in which Mr. Wallace ser
we'd as a soldier. They moved to
Marshall county in 1879 and settled
on a farm near Warren. They quit
farming many years ago and have
since made their home in this city.
Being both still in very good health,
their many friends hope that they
may live to celebrate also their dia-
mond wedding.

PARENTS ARE WARNED OF
DANGER OF KITCHEN FIRES.

This is the season of the year
most. fatal to children. Not from a
sanitary point of view, as the doctors
would say, but from carelessness in
managing the household heaters and
the kitchen range, says Robert w.
Hargadine, state fire marshal.
Recent reports received by the fire
marshal's department. from investiga-
tion Of fires show that several child
rem have lost their lives or have been
disfgured for life by being left alone
in the house by parents.
In many agricultural communities,
where. both parents and all other
adult members Of the family are
absent, the small children left alone
in the house have played with the fire
in the. kitchen range, and in most
cases fatalities have resulted.
5 In one case in IRoseau county, the
father and mother left two small
children in the house. They played
with the fire with the result that both
we're burned to death and the entire
dwelling destroyed.
DO not take chances. Arrange
mattsrs so that small children are
not left alone in the house or in a
room where they can play with fire.
BY observing little caution, many
families will be spared the heart-ren-
ding experience of having their lit
tie ones burned to death.

A stranger who had been doing
some blind pigging in Warren lately

day evening. On the way to the city
hall he tried to give the officers the
slip by running into the alley, but
they proved too quick for him. At
the city hall he was searched and
four bottles <of wiskey were pulled
out of his pockets. After this pro-
ceeding he was taken to the county
jail and the following morning
brought before the grand, jury then
in session. Evidently he had chosen
an inopportune time for his nefareous
business. The evidence collected
from his emptied pockets in addition
to that: of a number Of boys and
young men in town, who had bought
liquor from him, was rather strong,

prisoner finally decided to plead

GOOD rood FOR CHICKS.
Sour Milk or Beef Scraps Best
Feed for Poultry Raising.


How do you feed your chick
ems? Are they unable to pay
for themselves If so, a prop
er selection of food will put
them on a paying basis. Ac-
cording to an experiment being
conducted by H. L. Kempster
of the poultry department Of the
University of Missouri at Col
umbia, chicks fed sour milk or
beef scraps show a greater re-
turn than those not given such
food.
The results of the experiment
are as follows: The chickens
were divided into three pens,
those given the regular mash
with sour milk in addition those
given the regular mash without
either the sour milk or beef
scraps. The mortality of the
sour milk pen was 1874 per cent;
of the beef scrap pen, p per
cent and of the no meat or milk
pen, 81 per cent. On the basis
of 100 chicks, the sour milk pen
gained 1878 pounds the beef
scrap pen gained 7.49 pounds (;
and the no meat or milk pen
gained 2.S6 pounds. The food
consumption, likewise on the
basis Of 100 chicks, was 1875
pounds Of chick food and 1914
pounds Of mash for the sour
milk pen; 81 pounds Of chick
food and 20.5 pounds of mash for
the no meat or milk pen. Hence
the amount of feed to produce
a pound of gain was 2. 76 pounds
to the sour milk pen; 5.54
pounds to the beef scrap pen,
and 15.1 pounds to the no meat
or milk pen.
"The experiment shows con-
clusively,' says Mr.. Kempster,
''that no one can afford to feed
chickens unless he feeds either
sour milk or beef scraps"
