Pertinent Pointers for Practical Farmers
ps,,,.d bv the Agricultural University OF Minnesota
DAIRY cows INCREASE
THEIR OWNERS INCOMES
Nutritious Balanced Ration With Good
Care Will Produce Desired Re-
suIts-Testing an Advantage.

What the balanced ration will do
in increasing the production of dairy
COWS and thereby increasing the In
comes of their owners is made re-
| markedly clear in the December re-
| ports Of many Minnesota testing as.
sociations to the office Of the dairy
specialists Of the university at Uni
| versity Farm.
A contented COW owned by men,
Der of the Blue Earth association
contented because she was fed a
nutritious balanced ration and was
given good care and treatment-pro-
duced 12114 pounds Of butterfat DUR
ing December. The IL COWS consult
ing this particular herd averaged 649
pounds Of butterfat. Thirty-nine COWS
in the Blooming Prairie association
produced more than 40 pounds OF but
terfat each. Two hundred and ninety
eight COWS under test in the Meeker
county association during the month
had an average milk production OF
740 pounds.
The same story holds good nearly
all along the line. A South Henne'
pin association COW had record for
December of 905 pounds Of butterfat.
A COW in the Mortified association
produced SSS pounds Of butterfat for
the month, another in the Blooming
Prairie association SO pounds, one IN
the Meeker county association $40
pounds, one in the Chisago Lake as
sociation sos pounds, one in the
Mower county association 80 pounds,
and one each in the New Richland
and Watertown associations 1873
pounds.
Increased production is not all OF
the story, however. Testing assoc1a-
ton work often adds materially to the
salable value of dairy stock. For in
stance, in December, North Dakota
men purchased a carload of pure
breds and high grades OF Wlnona
county association members, paying
an average of $125 per animal. All
these COWS had testing records which
made them worth the money.
The tester for the Renville county
association of Olivia, reports that IN
December % members out of total
OIL 20 OF 20 l0u UdlduSCu A1CAoAo w
their dairy stock. Sixteen fed s1lage
and 81 legume hay. The highest
producing cow in the association had
record Of 5000 pounds of butterfat.
The 235 COWS under test averaged
more than 80 pounds Of fat for the
month. Purebred sires are to be
found at the head of all the herds.
Reports of the testers indicate
steady progress in the development OF
association dairy herds. Boarder
COWS are being cast out, and 5looded
animals purchased. New associations
are being organized over the state,
and new herds are being added to as
sociations already established.

HORTICULTURAL SPECIALIST
URGES EARLY CAMPAIGN

R. S. Macintosh, horticultural spe-
cialist with the agricultural extension
division Of the state university, says
it is none too early for the orchardist
or small fruit grower to plan his cam
paign for the control Of fruit insects
and diseases. Spraying material is
somewhat cheaper, he says. The Iowa
Fruit Growers association is ready
to- help Minnesota people to obtain
supplies as in times past. This asso-
citation is cooperative and no one is
making any profit from it.. The mem
bership fee is $1.00. g..
Professor Macintosh strongly adj
vises the organization wherever pos
sible Of spray rings, the members OF
which will work comparatively in i'm
proving their orchards and in pur-
chasing spraying material and sup
plies. The actual cost of spraying is
to be paid by each member in proper
ton to the amount Of material used
on his farm.
SPRAY every fruit tree-it pays"

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine:
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells ITSELF as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says 'Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
80 many people claim, that it fultills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri.
nary troubles and neutDlizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address

Community Breeding of Farm Animals

The United States is an in- dividualistic country. On the whole this spirit has greatly promoted enterprise. Still some fields, notably in agrieul- ture, there has been failure 10 acheive results possible by united effort. This is specially in such a matter as the breed ing of fine cattle and other stock. The tendency is for each stock raiser to pick the breed of cattle, swine or sheep which he prefers, regardless of what his neighbors are doing. As a result, compara- lively few communities have a reputation for breeding any particular kind of animal.
 When a community fixes up- on one breed of animal, and raises that, 1t greatly profits

Why Not Celebrate?

Did Newark ever have a real honest-to-goodness Fourth of July celebratin? So far as we are able to ascertain she did not. The files of The Journal which have kept the happen ings of the town recorded since 1901 fail to reveal that New ark ever turned out and had a big gala day on the anniversary or the signing of the Declara- ton of Independence.
 AS usual no fitting festival as tribute to this noted date in history was arranged this year, but somehow-perhaps just through the desire to sec a ball game-which, blythe way, have been very scarce in Newark this season-someone, the credit we think belongs to Cargile FreeZe-Suggested we have a ball game on the Fourth. Preliminaries were arranged with the Moorefield team to meet the Newark lads on the local diamond.
 The game was a loosely played affair, resulting in a tie, the score being 9. and 9. By unanimous agreement both teams withdrew from the field in order to give the local negro lads an opportunity to cross bats with the Diaz dusky swat ters.
 The Diaz sons of Ham had the local negros badly outclass- ed, and the game resulted i'll q score Of 10 to one III fVof or Diaz. But the hilarity which a negro ball game brings add ed a big feature to the day.
 The Fourth of July vs. the Town of Newark secured q shutdown or shut-up of all business houses from one to five o'clock pm.
 The Batesville Community negro band gave a concert on the streets of Newark after the ball games.

THE HELPFUL SPIRIT

A newspaper exchange tells how man, after a run of very hard luck, had the misfortune to have his house burn to the ground. The neighbors took hold and built him another one, and charged him nothng either for materials or labor.
 It harly needs to be said that this happened not in any city neighborhood, where the peo- pie claim to be very progress i've, but in a country town. Country people are always doing these things. In the eiti- es few people bother about the difficulties from which their neighbors suffer. If they do know, they don't seem to think it is up to them to do anything.

by specializing on that one line. is so much better where one breed prevails, that he seeks that community over others.
 The result of specializing on enc breed is that the small breeder gets recognition where otherwise he would be com pletely overlooked. While buyers are visiting a town they will look over his stock, but they would never come just D see his little herd.
 Localities that specialize on one thing get a world wide reputation. So famous did the state of Vermone become as d center for Merino sheep, that they used to send from Aus tralia for them, and the na- tives supposed that all Mer- The opportunity of the buyer

Fourth of July would be the best time for any town to have a big celebration. It is a good day for everyone to take stock of their citizenship.
 It has been many years since we were normal, so long we have almost forgotten what 1t is. All at once we went sizz- ling upwards like a sky-rocket -eXploded-and then came back to earth with thud. We were bewildered and are just now beginning to take a nor mal view of things.
 If we remember that we are citizens of the best country on earth, despite the pessimists, if we remember that We have to have food and clothes and homes to live in, and picture shows and wireless outfits and such things, and the only way to get them is to earn them, not to take them away from some other fellow,i we remem- Der that we are all in the same boat and pulling for the same port, that what benefits the farmer benefits the communi- ty as a whole, that we are on our way somewhere and are going to get there.
 Now would be good time to set our determination that another Fourth of July shall not go by without Newark engaging in a celebration that lis worthy of the town and that will do justice to the occasion.

 Then breeders in Waukesha county, Wisconsin, started in 1906 a movement to raise pure bred Guernseys. In 1908 they had PIT pure breds of this strain, and in 1914 they had 2,000. During these four years the butterfat production in the county increased 100 pounds per COW. It made the county known all over the country. Sixty-six breeders owned in 1918, $400,000 worth of Guer- nseys. Similar results in hog breeding accomplishments al. ready started can be secured in this section if properly carried on.

ATTORNEY D0WNER
DIES IN COLORADO
Former Candidate for Congress and
Chairman of District Exemption
Board Ruring War Sue
cumbs in Denver

Judge S. S. Downer, for years a
resident of Reno and one of the
most prominent lawyers in the west,
died Wednesday night in Denver,
according to telegram received by
Prince A. Hawkins from Judge
Downer's brother, Frank M. Downer.
Coming to Nevada in 1905, Judge
Downer engaged in his profession
in Reno and in 1910 the firm of
Cheney, Downer, Price g. Hawkins
was formed. Because of i'll health
he retired from the firm on Decent

earnest solicitation of party leaders.
During the war Judge Downer
was chairman of the district exemp-
ton board and he attended to the
duties of this board so arduously that
his health was broken before the
war ended and he failed very
rapidly.
When he announced his candidacy
for congress in 1918 he stated !:
my sole object in getting into this
fight is because of my interest in
winning this war. | believe can
be of some benefit in the adoption
of legislation that will tend toward
accomplishing that purpose and
showing that the Republican party
intends to go to the extreme limit
in winning the war;"

Ohio, born at GAINESVILLE on Sep
TENDER IL, 1853. His early educa-
ton was obtained at Dennison Uni
