O'CLOCK, William Ross, one of the old
time residents of Milbank, and an en-
ployee on the c. M. & st. p. railroad

ed away at the hospital in this city.
He was stricken with acute appenlii-
citis some two weeks ago, but on be-
ing taken to the hospital an exami-
nation disclosed the fact that the ap-
pendix had broken. and that the stric-
ken man was in serious condition.
Every effort was made to draw the
scattered pus from his system, and
for a time the efforts of the physicians
appeared as if they would prove sue
cessfui, Notwithstanding his age, as
he bad been man of the most alb
stemicus habits, but the poison had
spread too far over his system and
he gradually los. strength until the
erd came
The deceased man was born in Flc.l-
den, Province of Quebec, October ~,
1S47, and came to the states when a
young man, engaging in railroad
work, and for forty eight years he
had been in the employ of the C. NJ.
& st. p. railroad, working on the ex-
tension Of the road as foreman ct
bridge construction when the road
was being built through Minnesota
and Dakota. He came to Milhank
when the town was first laid out, and
had made his home here practically
ever since. He was united in mar
riage on June End, 1893. to Miss An
ME Rooney of Chicago, and is sur
yived by his wife and two children,
William H. and Esther Elizabeth, both
grown to young manhood and woman
hood. He is also survived by sis-
ter, Mrs. Joseph Nixon, OF Nea,i-
drcnii, Province of Gubec, Canada,
who with her daughter Ella was on !.
visit TO the Ross family here, when

manned during his sickness and de-
cease. - ~
Mr.. Ross was life member Of the
Railroad Bridge and Builders Assn, q
member of the Veterans Assn. Of the

interested member in al! Of the Ma
sonic bodies in this city as we'll as a
member Of the Scottish rite and
Schrine botiies in Aberdeen, and a.
member of the Congregational church
Of this city. A man Of fine character,
inheriting the sturdy virtues of his
Scotch ancestry, and of kindly social
he will be greatly missed
in all the social and fraternal circles
in which he was wont to enjoy the
fellowship Of kindred spirits, as well
as by his fellow workers on the rail-
road
The funeral service was held at the
Congregational church Thursday af-
ternoon, Rev. Carl P Bast officiating,
and the Masonic bodies also conduct
ed i.urial service at the grave, the

COUNTY FAIR
CLOSES IN rain
FAIR THIS YEAR ONE or BEST
IN THE HISTORY OF THE
FAIR ASSOCIATION

/ FAIR ASSOCIATION
While the county fair this year
| was perhaps the most satisfactory
that has been held for several years,
! it is not yet definitely known what
the result is financially. Tie secre-
tary Is endeavoring to get in all the
bills this week SO that complete ac-
counting can be made The atten-
dance and consequent receipts would
have been much larger but for one
day of threatened rain, and for Il
heavy downpour on the last day of the
fair, ell the evening attractions on
Friday having to be abandoned
While the live stock exhibit was
no, a. large as might have been ex-
| peoted. because of reports of hog
| cholera among swine, nevertheless
there were some good animals shown.
One OK these was an immense hog Of
| the Poland China big t?pe, exhibited
by l. NJ. Davis, and which attracted
considerable attention.
The flying circus with its various
stunts, Wednesday and Friday was a
very attractive feature and entertain
| ed the crowds in an excellent manner,
and the fireworks in the evening were
also fine features.
One of the commemorate features
| OF the fair was the rest room provi.-
eti by Miss Beagin, the Red Gross
nurse, end it privileges were greatly
enjoyed by many of the women from
out o. town localities with little chill
dfen. Miss Beagin as health nurse
weighed and measured some $50 chill
dren during the days of the fair, call
ed attention to physical defects that
could be remedied, and gave number
OF talks to mothers on the care Of
children. The rest room, proved a very
helpful feature of the fair.
The baseball game between Orton-
vile and Milbank on Friday afternoon
was a good exhibition Of ball, and it
looked for time as if the locals were
likely 10 shut out the visitors but in
the last few innings the Ortonvul.
boys pulled themselves together and
the score at the close stood 3 to 6 in
favor of Milbank.
The scores of the games on the pre-
vious days between the various teams
were as follows: Milbank 6, Nassau
1; Vernon Z, LaBolt SO innings;
Revilio Z, Twin Brooks 9-11 innings.

GROWING WINTER
 WHEAT IN NORTH
Harder Varieties Introduced That Give Better Yields
 and Mature Earlier.
BETTER DROUGHT RESISTANT
Better Division of Labor Permits Fall Seeding and Earlier Harvesting Careful Selection of Seed Will
 Aid Yield.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture.l
 Since the introduction of the hardy varieties of wheat from southeastern Europe there has been decided north ward movement of the winter-wheat area. This movement has been rapid in recent years. The reasons therefor are the generally large yields of win ter wheat due, first, to Its earlier ma turity, thus enabling it to escape hail, hot winds and disease; second, to its greater drought resistance; and third, to the better division of labor, which it allows through fall seeding and ear Her harvesting.
 The profitable production of wheat in the eastern part of the United States depends to a considerable eX- tent on the choice of the best-adapted varieties. In general. the soft red winter wheats are grown, although soft white winter wheats are popular in the northeastern United States, especially in New York and Pennsylvania. In the extreme western portion of the eastern area, which is limited on the west approximately by the line of 30 inches of rainfall. hard red winter wheats of the Turkey type are grown. Along the line of 30 inches rainfall there Is transition zone in which hard and soft red winter wheats sue ceed about equally well.
 Better Varieties for Many Farms.
 Many farmers are doubtless growing poorer varieties of wheat than they might grow If they knew exactly what was adapted to their localities and farms. The United States Department of Agriculture has just issued Farm

MILK HELPS YOUNG ANIMALS
Skim Milk and Other Creamery By Products Are Useful Feeds fo-
 Pigs and Calves.

While whole milk is natures bal anced food and is valuable for young animals, skim milk and other creamery byproductS, such as buttermlk and whey, are also useful feeds, say spe- cialists of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. Skim milk is fed to young pigs in the proportion of about three pounds to one of concen~ trates, such as cornmeal or shorts. Buttermilk, which has not been di- luted too much with water, has nearly the same feeding value as skim milk. It is q better food for swine than for calves because it is apt to cause di- gestive disturbances when fed to the latter, unless considerable care is used. Whey is used almost exclusive ly in feeding swine. It is about two thirds as valuable as skim milk as a food. Accordingly from ten to twelve pounds of whey are equivalent to one pound of grain. Sweet skim milk. when supplemented with other feed such as corn meal or wheat shorts. is very good for young calves. If beef calves are to be fed skim milk, they should be fed in practically the same manner as dairy calves.

Oysters Have Many Enemies.

Between the planting and the har- vest. an interval of from two to five years. the oyster eulturist assumes many hazards. On the New England coast, after all his material is down, the fickle "set" may not appear, pos sibly because at the critical time some weather disturbance may have killed the baby oysters while they were yet swimming near the surface. In the Gulf of Mexico the "set" may be so heavy that there is s,ant room for the oysters to grow, and many die, while those that are left ere half starved and misshapen frotn crowding. Even when the little oysters or "spat," have attached themselves in favorable num- bers, their perils have just begun. They are never safe from other enc mics until they fall into the hands of their arch foes.
