That’s what J. J. IHill paid for the iron-ore. $500,000,000. That’s what J. J. Hill “wouldn’t ey ez —a matter of 100 to some.” And the difference between $4,- 500,000 and $500,000,000 measures the stupidity of the people in giving R sun-yre 1 and “then away their natural resources, so far as it can be measured in dollars and cents. But when it comes to hours of labor, starvation wages and horrible conditions of living entailed by the necessity of earning dividends on the enhanced valuation there is no such thing as measuring it, save in sweat and tears. Let us repeat all together: “When a lone wolf preys on 100 sheep it is not de to the wolfiness of the wolf, but to the sheepiness of the sheep.”—Wisconsin State Journal. No Chance for Him. A Kansas City man has obtained a divorce because his wife insisted on keeping 35 cats in the house. It was a physical impossibility for him ta kick them all around at once. Never Straight. The cocoanut palm has one peculiar- ity. It never stands upright. There is & Malay maxim to the effect that “He who hath seen a straight cocoanut palm will surely live forever.” COOD NEWS Many Bemidji Readers Have Heard It and Profited Thereby. “God news travels fast,” and the thousands of bad back sufferers in Bemidji, are-glad to learn where re- lief may be found. Many a lame, weak and aching back is bad no more, thanks to Doan’s Kidney Pills. Our citizens are telling the good news of their experience with the Old Quaker Remedy. Here is an ex- ample worth reading: Henry Revor, 808 Bemidji Ave., Bemidji, Minn., says: “I have tak- en Doan’s Kidney Pills, obtained from Barker’s Drug Store and have received splendid results. I had a lame back, together with pains across my loins. Every move I made caused me pain. Itook Doan’s Kid- ney Pills as directed and they re- moved my trouble. I can recommend them.” If your back aches—if your kid- neys bother you, don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy-—ask distinctly for Doan’s Kidney Pills, the same thaf Mr. Revor had—the remedy that is backed by home testimony. 50c all stores. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N, Y, 5 Cows That Make Most .Money C. HUMPHREY, Wisconsin College of Agricultare Tha Dairy Cow Must Have a Tendency to Produce Milk Rather Than to A dairy cow is.one of the specific dairy type and breed capable of mak- ing a large and economical production of milk and butter fat. A careful study and analysis of this definition and its application to cows whenever one has opportunity to apply it will greatly aild in getting in mind the correct ideal of the dairy cow and in judging and buying cows. “Type” refers to the conformation of an animal and is indicative of util- ity. “Specific dairy type” refers to an animal having a large, deep barrel, a prominent, well developed udder, and sharp, clean cut features about the head, neck, shoulders, back, hips and rump, due to the absence of thick flesh. Such a type indicates dairy util- ity and that she is of little value ex- cept for milk production. The dairy cow must be of distinct dairy breed as well as of dairy type; otherwise she may convert her feed into flesh rather than milk and thus result in a beef animal. The National and International dairy shows of this country recognize the Holstein, Guern- sey, Jersey, Ayrshire, Brown Swiss, and Dutch Belted breeds of cattle ‘as | distinct dairy breeds. High grade and | pure bred animals of these breeds are found in this state and rank in num- ber in the order named. Pure bred animals possess 100 per cent. of the blood of their respective breeds while the grade animals have a predomin- ance of the blood of a given breed but less than 100 per cent. Grade cows are generally by pure bred sires and out of native or grade dams. A large production of milk and but- ter fat is a necessary requisite for a dairy cow. The production for at least a year should be taken into considera- tion because some cows make a large RGP s e oq e It is characteristic of beef cows and of many poor cows of the dairy breeds to dry off soon. A strictly dairy cow tends to make a large and economical production of butter fat throughout her life time which means that she converts a comparatively large amount of the feed that she eats into milk and butter fat, and only a small portion of it into building up the tissues of her body. A dairy cow shows marks of dairy breeding and constitution; and not only produces milk and butter fat in large and ecionomical quantities but also at regulat intervals progeny which tends to be satisfactory for dairy purposes. Essential Features of the Dairy Cow. The dairy cow is a living machine which, when in perfect health and form, has four prominent features. These are: a body indicating a large, strong digestive capacity, a dairy tem- perament which is nervous and results in milk production rather than flesh production, a large well developed ud- der of healthy gland tissue, and a strong circulatory system that dis. tributes the blood actively to all parts of the body and gives vigor, health, and activity. A cow usually fails in the production of milk as she fails in one or more of these essential fea- tures. Each part of the body bears some relationship to one or more of these essential features and enables one to judge of their prominence. ‘Where one is able to consider all the parts of the body and judge these es- sentlal features he is not likely to err seriously in his judgment. Digestive Capacity.—A large body, more especially the barrel in propor- tlon to the size of the animal, is in- dicative of capacity. The body of the dalry cow should be wedge shaped as viewed from front, side and top. That is, wider at the hip points and be- tween the fore legs than at the with- ers, and deeper from the hip points to the lower line of the rear flank than at the fore quarters. This char- acter of the body has led to the term, triple-wedge-shaped conformation, and in giving consideration to the di- gestive capacity of the cow one should Temember that it is the base ends of the wedges, rather than the sharp ends which indicate her capacity. Long, well sprung ribs, openness of chine, width of back over loins, size of barrel, depth and width between |-the hips, and fullness of rear flanks all combine to indicate large digestive capacity. A wide forehead and a com- paratively long face are indicative of the size and feed capacity of the body and likewise the broad muzzle, good sized mouth and strong, sinewy jaw. The tall 18 often measured in judging the cow and should reach to or below the hocks and carry a good switch. This renders it most useful in brush- ing fiies, which appears to be its chief purpose. In judging the quality and condition of the -muscular tissue of the body one should remember to take into consid- eration the size, age, and stage of lactation of the animal. The bone and muscular tissues in a‘large cow are mnaturally heavier than in a small one and there is not the apparent re- finement and spareness of form in the large breeds that 18 noted 1in the smaller ones. . Maikol coarsqmens, DEFRTI\II:' DANE Lay on Fat. howevér, T any aniial is usually accompanied by a sluggish disposi- tion which in a dairy cow prevents her from performing satisfactorily. Young heifers with first calf usually carry more flesh than cows of mature form. All properly fed cows usually show a higher condition of flesh de- velopment toward the close of their lactation and prior to freshening than they do when four or five months ad- vanced in lactation. The Udder.—The udder is the milk gecreting organ and its proper devel opment is, therefore, essential. In many instances cows of large digestive capacity and of dairy breeding have failed in production apparently on ac count of poorly developed udders. The udder consists of two large glands each of which is more or less distinct ly divided to correspond with each o the four ‘teats and form the quarters The duct of each teat enters a smal cavity termed the milk cistern. The milk cistern of each quarter is mor or less surrounded by lobes of glan tissue held in position and closely te¢ gether by connecting tissue. lobes may be likened to thick bunche of grapes since each lobe has severa lobules corresponding to the grapes The lobules are made of small divisiow | 5, called alveoli which correspond to the seeds of grapes. These alveoll ar constructed of small cells surroundet by a fine network of blood vessels ané nerves and it is by these cells that the milk is secreted. The best cows have comparatively large udders with equally developed | d: quarters extending well forward un derneath the body and a good distance up. behind and between the thighs Poor attachment giving a swinging ot pendant type of udder and deficiency larity in the development of xt‘llllg g{:fi“&rs n%'e criticisms élo be of- fered on many cows. The quality of the udder when examined by handling should reveal gland tissue of fine, plastic texture rather than fatty tissue or a texture that is coarse and hard The Circulatory System.—This sys tem determines the activity of the cow with respect to all parts of the body. Only when in perfect health and all parts of the body are actively performing their respective functions can the dairy cow be expected to yield a large flow of milk. When the cow 1s sick or by virtue of her poor indi- viduality is dull and morbid there is an inactivity of all the glands of the body resulting in a dry, harsh condi tion of the skin, a staring coat, and a low production of milk. The circula tory system inclwdes the heart, lungs, arteries and veins since these organa respectively force, purify and carry blood to and from all parts of the body. When food becomes digested and assimilated the blood must carry it to the parts of the body demanding it and in' the dairy cow the glands of the udder demand a large share of the nourishment of the blood for the secre- tion of milk. The size and character of the milk veins, more properly termed “mammary veins,” and the milk wells on the underside of the body are the best indications of how much blood passes through the udder. These veins do not cary milk as some people belleve, but carry a large por tion of the blood away from the udder. The blood passes into the - udder through arteries located deep on the inner side of the thighs. If one were standing below a mill propelled by a water wheel and noted the race filled with water from the mill he would have reason to believe that the mill was in operation and performing its work. Likewise when one observes large, branching mammary veins en- tering the body through wells of suff- (|| clent size to avold a vein becoming gorged he has reason to ‘believe that the udder is performing its work well. Troublesome Moose of Maine. Hancock county, which is in south- eastern Maine, is .suffering a plague of moose and up -around the head- waters of Union river and in the re- glon of Saponic and Nickalous lakes {the people who stay on farms the year round are calling for help. Last summer the animals did seri- ous injury to farm crops. This winter, it appears, they have yarded in and fed upon varieties of slash that seem- ed to be the honest pioneer’s last re- source. One farmer writes the state commissioners of inland fisheries and game to the effect that several years ago he bought a tract of 200 acres of wild land with the intent to go over it annually and cut out hoop poles. He did that once. Then, as he expresses it, about the time that thousands.of sprouts came up “the moose came in,” destroyed the sprouts “and continue annually to destroy at least $200 of poles besides the growth.” And this man and his neighbors have no redress short of the ultimate gun, since, though a :state law provides reimbursement for crop damages. inflicted. by deer, mooss do not figure in this way in any statute. —Boston Transcript. = Thes: | 5} KX KRR KKK HOW TO FIND x The Northern Minnesota Devel- * opment Association Immigra- tion Commission Quarters. 39.% Third Street, South, Minne- * ~apolis, * * For the benefit of the readers % of the Ploneer this notice will % appear in both the Daily and & Weekly Ploneer for the next six % ‘month, * On leaving the union depot % Nicollet to Third street, cross- % ing that thoroughfare, turn to % the left and procced half a % block; toward the postoffice. * From- the- Milwaukee- depot,-+& turn'to the left on- Washington % avenue and continue to First & avenue, turn to -the left and go % one block to Third street and ¥ then one half block to the right. % Daily Ploneer will be found * on file here. * XEKHEKK KKK EF X KE AAKXKAKXAKAIA A AN A AR AAA A AR AN AA R K Tubbs White Pine Cough Cure'is Dleasant to take,. .Soothes and satis- fles.
