Keep Calves Hungry

1t Is best to keep young calves just
a little hungry rather than to over
feed them. This applies while they are
under four months Of age. Legume
hay such as red clover, alfalfa, or
naked hay with more than 90 per cent
clover are all good Quality is i'm

month old should get 10 to IL pounds
OF skim milk. This amount should
gradually be increased until calves
four months old are getting 16 to 1S

Ellison White Chautauqua
at PlentyWood August 1920

The local committee has just an
nounced that the dates for the
Chautauqua at Plentywood will be
August Is 20 inclusive Arrange
ments made with the Ellison-W
Chautauqua System call for the
most interesting program that has
ever been given on Q Chdutauqua
circuit through the Wesr.
The Haskell Indian Band gives
an entertainment the nature of
which has never been given on
Western Chautaupua Circuit. 1t is
composed of students at Haskell,
Uncle Sans" most famous Indian
School. The band will give a mar
velously interesting program of
American and Indian music. Some
OF the program will be given in
costume. There will be war dances
and an illustration of the work
that is being done by the Govern
ment in training the boys and girls
from the Indian Reservation to be-
come good citizens. This program
doesn't depend for its appeal on its
novelty alone, but the Indian mu-
sicians play in a way that is to the
envy of good bands and band men
who have heard them.
There will be two plays, as usual,
and the plays secured are second to
none in the list of recent successes.
The first play will be Charming Pol
locks The Fool" which is q great
moral drama, while on the last
night, "Applesauce" will be the at
traction. "Applesauce" is a rollock-
ing comedy that has laughed its
way into the good graces of Amer
ican theatre goers in a way which
has made it one of the outstanding
successes of the present generation
One OF tfe great accomplishments
of the Chautauqua movement has
been the bringing of good plays to
the public at price marvelously
low. This year the two plays and
many other attractions are all given
for the price of a seat for either one
of the plays in a good theatre. The
cooperative plan of arranging Chau-
tauquas makes this possible.
The speakers are unusually inter-
esting. DIR. Alexander Cairns is an
Irish prearher from Newark, New
Jersey, where he has a large follow
ing. In addition, DR.. Cairns writes
a column for string of eastern
newspapers which is read eagerly
from dav to day by hundreds of
thousands of people. Robert Park
er Miles. world traveller, writer and
dramatic lecturer will give his fa-
nous lecture, "Tallow Dips" Ned
WoodmaD, a clever cartoonist and
crayon speaker, will appear on the
same day as the Haskell Indian
Band.
Clay Smith, famous song writ
er; Lucille Elmore. a Broadway |
star from Fred Stones Stepping
Stones" Company; Earl Scott, the /
poet. novelist and actor from Santa
Fe's Artist Colony; Thomas All
press, with his little company of
artists. and other interesting people
are all included on the program.
The Chautauqua program is not
only a clean. uplifting and interest
ine aggregation of talent. but the
bigees entertainment value for the
that PleAtywood has seen
for long time.

any misgivings as to the edibility of
the fish, he stated that he had
eaten the larger number of the pike
used in the research work and that
tapeworm infection was an impos-
sibility providing the fish were
cooked. Rotarian guests at the
meeting were Coach Winters of Oak
Park and Carl Smith of Minneapolis.
Leroy Schaefer of Glenwood was
also a guest that evening. The ladies

NOTED VISITORS
IN THIS SECTION

Senator Daniel F. Steck of Iowa
passed through the city Saturday or
his way home after a three weeks
canoe trip through the superior
National Forest and the Hunters
Island district in Canada. He in
formed a reporter that this was one
of the finest outings he had ever
taken. He also spoke on the Backus
dam proposition in no uncertain
terms.
1T will be an outrage to raise the
levels of the lakes on the inter
national boundary and ruin the
greatest summer vacation country on
the American continent" Senator
Steck declared.
During his canoe trip the Senator
visited most of the lakes that will
be affected by the proposed power
dams along the border. He ex-
pressed the hope that the interna-
tional joint commission will turn
down the applications of private IN
terests for the construction of these
dams and declared his intention to
oppose the raising of any lake levels
on this side of the border.
Senator Steck praised the Ameri-
can Legion of Minnesota for oppos-
ing the construction of the dams
and the granting of water power
rights at the state department con-
vention in Hibbing earlier in the
week.
Senator W. P. Pine of Oklahoma
is in this section at the present time
spending a well-earned vacation. The
Senator is travelling incog. and is
seeing what there is to see. His OBJ
servations will be awaited with in
terest after he concludes his visit.
A week ago, Clara Kimball Young,
the noted movie star, accompanied
by her husband left for California
after spending several weeks in the
country north of here on a canoe
trip. She was most agreeably sur
prised over the beauty and wildness
of the country and promised to come
again at some future date. This
was some admission by a Californian
and goes to prove that Minnesota is
in a class with California and Florida
when it comes to recreation area.
Mabel Normand spent the summer
here two years ago and Minnesota
is securing considerable favorable
free advertising by the visits of these
celebrities.
