ROBBERS GET $500 IN
HAUL AT CLEVELAND

The L. H. Allen store in Cleveland
village suffered a financial loss con-
servatively estimated at 5000 last
Thursday night, according to the St.
Peter Herald, when yeggmen made
the place the scene of raid in which
ladies' silk dresses, hosiery and other
valuable apparel formed the bulk of
the loot carried off. The robbers are
said to have entered the place from
the front, breaking in the heavy door
and making their getaway without
arousing the people of the village.
This is not the first time that Cleve-
land has been spotted by robbers as a
point about which they have conferred
their operations. On one other occa-
sion within the past few years rob-
berries have either been staged or at
tempted there.
The Cleveland community has some
citizens who are not afraid to cope
with night marauders when discover
ed, and on at least one occasion an
intended robbery was frustrated by
the ready action of local townspeo-
pie, but this time nobody heard the
robbers at work.

Golden MAN HELD
ON ARSON CHARGE

With parts of rug and clothes
found soaked in kerosene, following a
fire in a house owned by j. P. Bert
rand, Golden, Assistant State Fire
Marshall, C. E. Llewelen, ordered the
arrest of Frank Fiebiger after an in
vestigation which pointed to incend-
arism.
Fiebiger, who occupied the dwelling
house, had been seen about the place
on the day shortly before the fire was
discovered by Miss Rosetta Bertrand,
in charge of the telephone exchange
in an upstairs room. The blaze was
quickly extinguished with chemicals.
Waving examination in justice
court at New Ulm, Mr.. Fiebiger was
placed in Jail until he can raise
1880 bail. Damage to the house
was adjusted at S105. Fiebiger car
ried insurance amounting to $1,000
on the household goods, which the
prosecution claims is more than SO
per cent excessive, according to an
appraisal made by a disinterested
furniture dealer, who valued the pro-
perty under $500.

STATE TO RECEIVE
SUM OF $2,24s, 1898

Minnesota will get $2,249,000 out
of the $SO,OOO,OOO appropriated for
road construction work in the admin
STATIONS $116,OOO,OOO emergency re-
lief act, small portion of the special
fund of $3,OO0,OO0 for trails in ma
tional forests, and sufficient out OF
the $45,OO0,O00 drouth relief act to
meet the need in local areas in Mar
shall and Pennington counties.
There may be some change in the
special road allotment, but not much.
The figure give above is taken from
the ALLEGATION furnished Chairman
Will Wood, of the house appropria-
tions committee, by the road bureau,
and officials of that department said
it undoubtedly would be around that
amount.
Minnesota, South Dakota and
North Dakota are, not listed in the
drouth area by the department of
agriculture, but as much Of the ap-
preparation as needed to meet local
conditions will be available, C. W..
Warburton, secretary of the Hoover
drouth relief committee and director
of extension work for the department,
said.
1t is not expected the drouth relief
bill will be of any benefit to the stock
raiser, ranches, breeder or feeder.
The bills provisions cover only relief
for the crop farmer, its restrictions
even going so ia sas to prohibit him
from using the loan for the purpose
of feeding his dairy cattle, hogs, and
other livestock. The loans are re-
stricted to feed for work stock only,
seed, fertilizer and fuel for tractors,
if any are used.
Much of the machinery required is
already set up and ready to operate,
Mr.. Warburton said. About all re-
quired, once the appropriation be-
comes available, will be the furnish
ing of blanks to farmers who desire
loans, and these will be printed at the
Christmas recess. A request for ap-
prevail of the appropriation already
has been sent to the director of the
budget.-Brown County Journal.

SHELTERS PROFITABLE
FOR FEEDER ANIMALS

CATTLE and sheep on feed will make
more profitable gains this winter if
given protection against storms and
extreme cold, says w. H. Peters, an
imal husbandry chief at University
arm. Feeding under shelter is ad-
vised when possible, especially during
the most severe weather. Feeder an
finals should also have plenty Of fresh
water with the chill taken off.
Expensive shelters or equipment
are not necessary, Mr.. Peters points
out, but the shelter should have roof
to keep off snow and rain and wind
breaks to guard the animals against
cold winds. Bedding enough to keep
the ANIMALS dry is desirable. For
most conditions open sheds, with
yards boarded up to keep out wind
furnish satisfactory quarters.
For the man who wants to solve
the shelter problem permanently Mr..
Peters advises building an inexpen-
sive shed with provision for feeding
inside, or Temporary shelters, straw
sheds and various other makeshifts
may be used. Keeping feeder cattle
inside closed tight barn is not re-
commended since the lack of fresh air
and light and the confinement of the
animals may actually do them more
harm than staying out in the cold.
Experiments carried on in Canada
show that cattle sheltered in open
sheds make better and cheaper gains
than either those left outside or those
fed inside good barns.
1t is believed more interest than
usual will be shown in the matter of
providing shelter this winter since
many feeders in Minnesota found
their cattle making little or no gains
during January on account of the
extreme cold.

CALVES GOT WELL IN
HURRY WITH BONEMEAL

That cattle suffering from lack
of phosphorus recover speedily when
fed bonemeal bran, or other feeds
rich in this mineral, is shown in re-
cent report by H. C. Peterson, Ira
verse county agent.
Early last fall several Traverse
county farmers complained about a
rundown condition Of their calves
which also suffered from enlarged
joints and stiffness. Mr.. Peterson
advised the feeding of bonemeal or
bran and farmers following this sug-
gestion were surprised to see how
rapidly their calves became normal.
Writing to DR.. L. S. Palmer Of the
division of agricultural biochemistry,
University Farm, Mr.. Peterson
states: "The results were almost
miraculous. In every instance, ex-
cept one, the calves made a 100 per
cent recovery within less than two
months. The difference between the
sick and we'll animals made very
striking contrast"
Phosphorus deficiency in cattle and
other livestock in western Minneso-
ia, frequently manifested by bone
chewing and other symptoms of de-
PRAYED appetite, has been given ex-
tensive study at University Farm by
DIR. Palmer and members of the dairy
division staff, including DR.. c. H.
Eckles and T. w. Gullickson. Lack
of phosphate in the soils of this re-
gion results in a deficiency of phos-
phorus in the feeds grown. These
then fail to supply the animals with
enough of this mineral to meet their
bodily demands. Giving affected an
finals free access to bonemeal quickly
corrects and prevents this trouble.
Other methods for correcting or pre-
venting it are given in a new public

Thursday afternoon of last week

$571,96S TAX RISE SEEN

An addition of more than 100000
to the annual bill of Minnesota tax
payers may result from Senator w.
E. Borah's proposal for 2 per cent
increase in federal taxes( a computa-
ton shows.
In the fiscal year ending June 80,
1880, the income tax total for the
state was $28, 598, 449.50, according to
members of the staff of L. M. Will
cuts, Collector of Internal Revenue.
Two per cent of this amount would
be $571, 968.99( while discontinuance
of the temporary cut of l per cent in
corporation income taxes would re-
suit in an even larger increase.
Members of Mr.. Willcuts' staff de-
clined to compute what increases
would be on definite incomes, because
they do not know how widely Sena-
tor Borah's proposal is intended to
apply or if it will be uniform in
crease of two per cent or just an
average one.
j. G. Armson, member of the Min
nesota Tax Commission said that
even if Senator Borah's proposal is
put into effect it would not interfere
with plans in Minnesota for a state
income tax, sales tax, or other form
of levy which may be decided on by
the 1881 legislature. He also said it
would not interfere with proposal
by members of the Tax Commission
to increase gross earnings levies on
telephone and railroad companies
