JOHN LILA WRITES OF
CONDITIONS In DAKOTA
Family Has Had Much Worry and
Grief this Year. Crops Not
Very Good.

In renewing his subscription to the
,Ne1v Ulm Post, our old friend, John
Lila, Of Stirum, N. D., writes sof crop
and other conditions there and of the
hardships and grief that the Lila
family has experienced this year. They
are not discouraged, however, but are
fighting off the spell Of adversely in
the hope of brighter day coming
soon. We publish a part of Mr..
Lilla's interesting letter herewith:
"Messers,. Carl Crone, Theodore
Mueller, Fred Williams and Ferdinand
Sannwald and another young man,
whose name I have forgotten (William
Schuck,) were out here last fall, just
at threshing time, and overlook US
with a great surprise. They all wore
big yellow glasses and I did not know
any Of them, until they told me who
they were. We enjoyed short visit
with them, but they would not stop
very long.
''On Saturday evening, July 2, we
had a bad storm here, which destroyed
all the barns for a wide and very
long way in North Dakota, including
our own, which was 46x50 feet and 50
feet high. We had the work horses
and four head of cattle in the barn,
but none Of the animals were hurt,
although pieces Of the building were
carried a distance Of more than a quar-
ter of a mile down the pasture. Frank
Bartl. brother-in-law, lost two of his
work horses,
"My daughter, Aggie, who was mar
ried to young farmer in our neigh
borhood, died last spring, following the
birth Of baby girl, when she became
i'll with influenza.
The harvest out here was not very
good this year. We threshed only 665
bushels Of wheat and ESQ bushels Of
oats, but corn and potatoes are pretty
good. We still have nice weather here,
very little snow and it is not cold.
ssBest regards to all Of our friends
and acquaintances in New Ulm and.
vicinity"

!. MINNESOTA ii u in SIXTH RANK
increase in Farm Horses in Last De-
WI eade Shown Both Dobbin ana
Tractor Needed.

(Prepared by Office of Publications,
University Farm, st. Paul.)
According to the preliminary figures
of the 1920 census Minnesota ranks
sixth in the total number Of horses on
farms. Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois. Kan
sas and Texas are the only states re-
porting a larger number of farm
horses. There are now something
like 932,794 horses in the state as
compared with 836,838 in 1910. This
shows that Minnesota today has ap-
proximately 100000 more horses than
in 1910, and it furthermore represents
about one-third Of the total Increase
in horses for the entire country as re-
ported for the period Of 191O-192O.
These figures will be Of interest to
farmers and horse breeders who were
inclined to believe that the total mum
Der of horses in Minnesota would
show a material decrease as a result
of the increased tractor motive power
on the farm
The most significant thing, however,
has been the general awakening and
appreciation by the breeding public of
the value of purebred breeding stock.
For example, in 1910 there were 1885
purebred draft stations used for breed
ing purposes in addition to 2,214 grade
and mongrel stations At the present
time all but. SCI grade horses have
been discarded and the number of
purebred sires used has been increas
ed by approximately SO per cent. In
addition to this, more farmer breeders
have bought purebred mares for
foundation stock than has ever before
been recorded.
The Minnesota slogan has been
Raise Better Horses rather than
Raise More Horses" says J. F.
Kuehn, secretary Of the Minnesota
Horse Breeders Association. 1--WE
have been advocating the use of high
class purebred sires, and the time is
here when only high class mares
should be selected for breeding pur.
poses. The greatest problem at this
time appears to be the general lack
of knowledge in skilled feeding and
management of horses by the average
farmer. Of this state. Horse raising
need not be a specialized Undertaking
but Minnesota farmers should learn
to grow foals into mature horses by
the growing-out process which is by
no means fattening process. Blood
lines are strong factors in the produc-
gtion of high class Graft horses, but
skilled feeding and management are
just as essential to the best develop
ment of the colt

Great That Officials Cannot Keep

(Prepared by !, Office Of Publications,
University Farm. st. Paul)
According to information received
at University Farm from offices Of the
United States Department Of Agri-
culture, Minnesota has lost the lead
which it held for some time in the
number Of fully accredited dairy herds
and the number of cattle certified free
of tuberculosis. A recent monthly
report shows that the lead has gone
sto wisconsin. When the report was
made, Wisconsin had 1909 accredited
herds containing 2e,oO1 head Of cattle.
Minnesota has LII accredited herds
with 28,0S9 cattle.
The accredited herd system, which
was devised to help rid the country.
OF bovine tuberculosis, is based upon
federal supervision and the issuance
of nertifcateseby the United States De-
gpartment of Agriculture. Steady pro-
sgTess has been made throughout the
country in the war against cattle tus
.berculosis. s9..
