TIE enterprising Aberdeen journal
last Saturday published special "buy
at home edition. showing the advant-
ages ot community support to home
institutions. 1t says:
South Dakota is the richest state
per capita. in all the union. South Da-
kcta has, more automobiles, per cap
tia. than any other state in the union
Every one of those automobiles was
made and sent in from another state
and money from South Dakota went
cut in exchange for it. That's why
it seems to some of us that we haven.
cur share OF that per capita wealth

IN The WAKE OF THE STORM

The big snow storm which the CITY
experienced last week left more snow
than the residents have seen for sev
raj years. Several days were taken
to clear the walks and cross walks
and most OF the country ROADS were
broken. altho travel is now heav,
enough to make them good. 4 few are
still unbrcken.
IRAN service has resumed its reeu-
lar schedule after fashion, most OF
the trains being on time althc a few
OF them are behind time. The tracks
have been cleared so that freight is
moving as fast as necessary.
A few of the lLral lines were out
OF commission after the storm had
cleared so that telephone service can
be had all over the county.
The rural carriers have had the
worst time, having to break the road
IN most cases althc some farmers had
shoveled thru the largest drifts near
TO their farms. 1t has been almost i'm
| possible for the carriers to make the
entire route in one day, so it has been
divided, one section receiving mail
enc day and the other the next. 1t
would help matters considerably, the
carriers say to have the roads clear
ed SO they would not have to stop and
do so.
The theioneter has hovered around
zero most OF the time. a'tho Tuesday
and Wednesday of this week it warm
ed up and started the snow to melt
ing and water to run from the roofs

Mrs. William Meyers, who had

cn Thursday of iast week, ami the re
mains were brought to Mii5ank 70?

Henrietta Hertzberg was born in
Cranzin kreis Arnswald, Germany,
January 1lth, 1855. She was married
10 William Meyers April 10th, 1882.
This union was blessed with FIVE
children. She came TO the United
States with her husband in 1855, set
Ting near Plainsville, MINI. Later
the family moved to Thief River
Fails, Mimi, settling on homestead
in the summer OF 1888. The following
winter she was converted to God and
icined the Evangelical church under
the labors of Rev. Price. In the fall
Of 1903 the family moved to Milbank,
$. ID. Here they found the church OF
1heir choice ard united with the same.
Sometime later Mrs. Meyers was made
a life member of the Womans Mis-
,ionarv Society of Cleveland, Ohio.
Mrs. Me,ers was taken i'll with dia-
hetes about three months ago and
since then has failed rapidly. About
Two weeks ago she was taken 20 the
Oltonville Evangelical hospital All

Son. Ordinarily these items Osf,a~
the amount required for labor, AMI
overhead expense. The difference be
tween cost of feed and receipts for
products sold usually repres ents clear
profit. Some COWS will greatly ex-
ceed TIE average profit calculated
above. Others will fall far short Of
that mark or may even be kept at a
loss. Such cows should be eliminated
from the herd without delay.
From the amount of feed listed
above, the average COW ought to pro-
duce G0OO pounds Of milk or go lbs.
of butterfat. Scme authorities state
that unless a COW gives 200 pounds OF
butter fat per year she is ''hoar,ler"
but FOR my own part am not quite
ready to subscribe to that idea yet.
There are some cows that will produce
a profit on no more that 80 or 16D
pounds of Duttcrfat."
The following clipping from the
state extension department of the
University Of Minnesota shows the
average costs and returns from Gair.-
herds in the ncighbo,ing state The
value Of cow testing is foIcibly brot
out and should serve to convince
dairy farmers OF tie necessity Of it.:
Look on this picture: 1t is esti-
mated that the average Minna-ota COW
produces annually 4O00 pounds Of
milk containing i6C pounds OF butter
fat, which, at valuation of Sc cents
a pound, is worth $3.50. Tic cost of
feed is based on COW testing records
for average cows is $3.50, leaving a
return over and above feed costs OF
SlS.95.
And then on this Average figures
for eight COW testing associations re-
polting for 1921 TO f. A. Hanson,
dairy specialist with the agricultural
extension division of the Uniye, sity
Of Minnesota. indicate that each COW
produced 6,319 pounds of milk, con-
tasning 25S pounds Of butterf;st, which
at a valuation Of 36 cents 8. pound,
was worth S92.SS. The average cost
of feed was SlG.$9, leaving a return in
excess of feed costs Of S45.99 which *
more than twice as much as the aver
age COW returns.
Records Of testing work kept br
Mr. Hanson show that testinn almost
invariably results in increased Yields
of milk ard butterfat."
