For Reclamation
Of States Lands
Committee Working for Meas.
ure, Plans Extensive Edu-
cati0nal Campaign

Every voter of Minnesota will
be asked to cast his ballot next
November for Amendment No.
/, providing for the establish
ment of a revolving fund of the
state for the development of the
state lands, now wild and un-
productive. Members of the COM
mittee in charge of boosting the
amendment met in St. Paul, and
made plans for a campaign to
reach every precinct in the state.
The amendment contemplates
a fund of $250,0O0 to be used for
putting these undeveloped lands
in condition to make them sal
able. The lands, they assert, are
of no value to the state, because
there are no roads leading to
them, they are in no condition
to be titled. The tract amounts
to nearly 100000 acres.
To raise funds for carrying
on the educational campaign, the
committee decided to issue tags
to be sold at county fairs, neigh
boring picnics and political meet
ings at 5 cents each. It is esti-
mated that $4,000 will be nee
essary to carry on the campaign.

WILL HISTORY REPEAT?

Some of our contemporaries
are specializing over the possi-
bility that the year 1916 will be
summerless. The year 1916,
the year after the disastrous
end Of the Napoleonic wars, had
scarcely enough summer to be
worth mentioning, and the the
DRY seemed to be that the terri
fic bombardments on European
battlefields are bound to have a
similar effect upon the weather
conditions next year.
June Of 1916, we are told, was
a month of frost and ice. New
England, Ohio and Pennsylvania
were covered with snow. June
18th there was a great snow
storm and 1ocks Of sheep were
overwhelmed and sufficated. The
ice was an inch thick on the 18th
of July and August goth wit
messed a heavy fall Of snow. Not
until September were normal
climatic conditions restored.
The notion is that history
will repeat itself after the pass

WHAT INTELLIGENCE DOES

Butter worth 80 cents per
pound is made from the same
milk that grease worth 4 cents
pound is made. It takes as
much milk to make the one as
the other. The one is the result
Of ignorance; the other of intel
ligence. The one goes begging
in the market, and brings pow
erty upon the producer, the 9TH
err is everywhere in demand and
brings wealth and honor to the
maker. The one honors the
COW, the other disgraces her.
The one builds novels and sheds,
the other builds mansions and
costly barns. The one covers
the farm with mortgages, the
other removes them. The one
brings ignorance to the children,
the other knowledge and respect
ability. In no way are ignorance
and knowledge more plainly
brought in contrast than in the
manufacture of butter. Ignor-
ance sits in poverty and is
clothed in want and disgrace,
while knowledge is clothed in
plenty and responsibility. In the
past ten years knowledge has
struck a terrible glow right
square or the head of ignorance,
cracked its skull and laid it up
for repairs. This knowledge had
its birth in the West, and the
creamery is it's legitimate off
spring.

HELP SAVE THE GAME
BIRDS

Ar unusually heavy blanket
OF snow covers the woods and
fields Of Minnesota, varying in
depth from over three feet in
the northern part of the state
to lesser depths in the southern
portions.
This condition will probably
continue for six to eight weeks
longer and presents a dangerous
condition as effecting game
birds, particularly quail.
Corn fields, weed thickets and
other sources Of food supply are
being buried under the drifts
and starvation may be the fate
of many Birds. though such an
impending disaster may in a
large measure be averted by
searching out the location of be-
vies of quail and placing food
for them in accessible and shell
tered places and in improving
natural shelters.
Even prairie chickens may
suffer starvation from the same
cause, though not in the same
degree as the quail as the lat
ter are less hardy and less able
to care for themselves and cope
with rigorous weather condl-
tions. Chinese pheasants, a few
of which are established in GER
tain localities, require attention
and care. Ruffed grouse, on ac-
count of protection afforded by
the forests and their habits, are
best to cope with severe weather
and are probably in no serious
danger from this cause.
Game wardens have been in
structed to give as much atten-
ton as possible to this situation
during the next few weeks. They
are instructed to search out the
location Of quail and prairie
chickens and endeavor to inter-
est people in the vicinity in feed
ing and caring for t11enn If they
require it. When not possible to
secure the cooperation of farm
ers and others they are author
lied to secure and place suitable
food in accessible places for the
birds and to incur such neces-
sary expense as is incident to
this work. Sheaves Of grain are
we'll suited to this purpose and
sweepings from barns containing
variety of seeds of weeds and
grasses are excellent if proper
ly distributed and placed. Wheat,
oats, barley and huekwheat may
be scattered in loose straw

THE COLOR OF MILK AND
CREAM

Most people think that the
color of milk or cream is an in
dication Of how rich it is. But
this is not true. The rich yell
low color is caused by the size
of the particles of butterfat. For
instance; A Shorthorn may test
40 and the milk will be very
yellow, a Holstein may test $50
and the milk will be only white
in color. In the short horn milk
the butterfat particles are very
