He Attempts to Rob a Whole Train und Is Defeated. Keokuk, Iowa, Special.—One lonely robber, with his face hidden by a mask and armed with a revolver, at- tempted to rob the passengers of the north-bound St. Louis, Keokuk & Northwestern train. A minstrel troupe and a theatrical company were aboard the train. The robber got on at La Grange, Mo., about forty miles below here. Soon after the train left La Grange the desperado, who had taken a seat in the smoking ear, put a mask on his face and, drawing a revolver from his pocket, started through the car. Pistol in hand, he demanded the money and valuabies of the passen- gers. There was a scramble to get out of his way, but some of the men in the coach stood their ground and at- tempted to disarm the bandit, who fired three shots, none of which took effect. The lost his mask in the scuf- fie and finally escaped to the platform, from which he sprang to the ground while the train was going at full speed. He secured no booty. TUNNEL TRAGEDY. Two Men Asphyxiated Under the St. Claire River. Port Huron, Mich., Special.—aAs- phyxiation caused the death of three men in the Grand Trunk railway tun- nel last night. They are Henry J.

The engine backed down to get the detached por- tion of the train, but for hours noth- ing was heard of the crew. Finally a searching party found the dead bodies and also rescued William Dunn, fire- man, and William Potter, brakeman, in an unconscious condition. Three mem- bers of the searching party were also overcome, but were later rescued by another party. The tunnel gas arises from the hard coal used by the loco- motives.

They were tied up and some of them have already gone mad. 'NTERESTING CHAPTERS FOR OUR RURAL READERS. How Successfal Farmers Operate This Department of the Farm—A Few Hints as to the Care of Live Stock and Poultry. The Profit in Dairying. T is not the amount of product made which makes the profit, but the difference between the cost and the value of what is produced. Some dairymen haye been complaining bitterly of the poor pay they receive and the difficulty ends meet in for their work, of making the their business, and at the same timé others are congratulating themselves on the satisfactory returns gained from their industry. The profits of dairying. depends upon the proper exercise of discretion, judgment and intelligence. These qualities will go a long ways in securing success in any business, but are specially necessary in the dairy, because of the complex nature of the dairy processes; the main point, haw- ever, in the dairy business is the cost of the product. It is not the quantity made so much as the material used in making it. One dairyman may receive $1,500 for his season’s milk, while his near-by neighbor will only get one- half of this sum as the proceeds of his dairy, and the latter no doubt is com- plaining that there is no profit in the business, while the other is enjoying life and luxury. The question then arises, to what is the cause of this difference. And in an- swering it the whole problem of prof- itable agriculture is raised and set- fled. First, the successful dairyman keeps only good cows. If one is found wanting when it is tested, it is dis- carded from the herd and replaced with another that is able to turn its feed- ing into profit. Second, the land is cultivated on the same principle, and every two acres made to support one good cow, where four acres was re- quired before to produce the same feed. Then each one returns an income double of what it was before for the feeding of cows alone, not mentioning the other products derived from it. Good cows, good cultivation of the land, and excellence of product are the three main points of the dairyman. The profit is made by these, and as they come the nearest to perfection, in the same ratio the profit 1s nearest the highest point. When these are at tained there is no need to bother the mind with other details. There is noth- ing difficult in gaining these three points. In each one, quality is to be considered and not mere number. It is better to pay $80 for a good cow than nearly all the dogs in town are being] $40 for one half as good, because a shot. No person has as yet been bit-| saving is made in the feed. ten, but people are in a constant state of fear. Fire damaged the new Nelson school $5,000. The blaze caught over the furnace and spread rapidly to the north part of the building, which was gutted. The building cost $17,000, and was insured for $12,000. The board of education has not yet decided what course to pursue, The Chicago & Northwestern Rail- way company will this winter erect a new steel draw 360 feet long in their draw-bridge across the Mississippi river at Winona, at a cost of 50,000. The present draw has been in use since 1871 and through perfectly safe is still con- siderably worn. New steel spans were put in on the rest of the bridge seyer- al years ago. Colonel M. M. Gasser of Duluth, a member of the governor's staff is said said to be a candidate for colonel of the Third regiment of the National Guard to succeed Colonel Shandrew. Mr. Gasser is regarded as a man fit ted for the position as he has bad a great deal of experience with militery matters. He was formerly captain of a militia company in Iowa. Mrs. C. F. McDonald, defendant in the suit for slander brought at St. Cloud by Robert Harrison, a promi- nent dry goods merchant, alleging $10,- 000 damages to his business, has filed her answer to Harrisons complaint, in which she makes a general denial. If this case comes to trial it will prove unusually interesting, the plaintiff hav- ing for his witnessesses some of St. Cloud’s most prominent ladies. The city authorities of Little Fails, were disappointed at the outcome of a case in justice court to rid the city of objectionable characters. The attorney of the men attacked the validdity of the orditance under which an arrest was made, arguing that the city coun- cil exceeded its authority under the charter in passing an ordiance prohibi- tirg persons from frequenting houses of ill fame. This contention was up- held and the prisoner discharged. Prosper Satterei, a farmer, 65 years of age, of Sank Rapids, two weeks ago married a Mrs. Spaulding and they went to Milaca to spend their honey- moon. The groom arose from his bed at 3.o’clock in the morning and in his night clethes went to the railroad bridge and deliberately jumped. The river was frozen and he lay three hours on the ice. He was unconsious and when taken to the hospital it was found that both feet and both ankles had been frozen. “King head” is the name of a weed which has made its appearance this year in the flooded districts along the Ted river. The weed derives its name| from its peculiar formation, one end of the seed haying the appearance of a crown, It is about the same weight as wheat kernels, and somewhat larger, and cannot be removed by ordinary fanning processes. Wherever the wa- ters of the Red river overspread the land this seed shows up in the wheat in such quantities as to reduce it two. or three grades. In a like manner, it is better to lay out twice the money on one acre to gain the produce of two, for the reason that building at Sfillwater to the extent of} labor is saved by growing large crops, and so on, and as regards high quality of product, it is better to give double the care and thought to the work and management, because the labor is scarcely if any greater. Time is re- quired to effect all these improvements, but the sooner they are commenced the sooner they will be reached. Vv. M. COUCH. Prices for Dairy Products. A good deal of discussion has lately been going on in the agricultural press relative to prices of dairy products, says Texas Stock and Farm Journal. The markets have steadily grown more unsatisfactory, and it is said that in the New England states butter and milk will not bring what it costs to produce them. The extensive use of butter sub- stitutes has had much to do with the low price of butter, although legisla- tion in some states has attempted to prevent their competition in an unfair way with butter. To a great extent legislation has not availed to protect butter makers from dishonest compe- tition, A large consumption is in the boarding houses, hotels and _ restau- rants of the country and the proprie- tors of these are not prohibited from palming off any fraud upon their cus- tomers. Yet it is believed that the dairy interests of the country will im- prove with its other industries. In this connection the Farming World in admitting that the conditions that caused advance in other products may not exist in connection with the prod- ucts of the dairy very reasonably says: “But whether they do or not a general increase in the business of the coun- try that gives employment to more people should certainly increase the de- mand for butter and cheese because there will be more who can afford to use these articles of food. Another reason why better prices should be ex- pected for both butter and cheese is the protection those products have re- ceived the past and this year in way of legislation that is unfavorable to bogus butter and ‘filled cheese. Such legislation has displaced or stopped the manufacture of imitation dairy prod- ucts to a great extent and thus made places for the genuine ones. There is another important feature and one that can be made a factor in giving the pro- ducers of dairy products a profit. It is an improvement in quality. Good products bring the top prices. Then again the more good butter and cheese —really fine quality—produced the more there will be of both consumed. Killing With Feed. Twelve quarts of food a day, in sum- mer, to sixty hens, or a quart a day for ‘ive hens, is the allowance given by a ‘ady at Stoneham, Mass., and the hens not laying, says Poultry Keeper. They are dying, and she writes as follows: “Can you tell me what to do with my hens? I have lost two and have another sick. They will not eat. Their droppings are green, a real grass green. The omes that are sick are Rosecomb Leghorns. I have about sixty hens in all, eight Leghorns, and the rest different kinds. I feed about six quarts, of ground oats, shorts and oil meal. Now they are moulting. Sometimes I feed corn meal, table scraps, beef scraps, making about six quarts in all in the morning. Do you think that right? At night I give them whole oats, buckwheat, about one-half pint of corn, and this makes about six quarts in all. Is oil meal as good as linseed meal? I am told at the store where I trade that it is and a great deal cheaper. If “you should answer this letter in your paper please omit name.” One quart of food to.a dozen hens for one day, of grain, is considered liberal, but in summer even less is needed if the hens are confined, with no food at allif they are on arange. Oil meal and linseed meal are the same. In every is- sue we have articles on excessive feed- ing, yet over and over again we cau- tion readers on that point, but they gc on with heavy allowances, destroy their flocks, get no eggs and then won- der at the result. Take our advice and follow. this rule of four words—“No seratch, no food.” Chicken Cholera and Roup This is an exceedingly fatal contags- ious disease, which is widely distrib- uted over this country, and causes enormous annual losses, especially in the central and southern sections. The first symptoms of the disease are, in the majority of cases, a yellow colora- tion of that part of the excrement which is usually white, quickly fol- lowed by violent diarrhea and rise of temperature. Other common accom- panying symptoms are drooping of the wings, stupor, lessened appetite and excessive thirst. Since the disease is due to a specific germ, it can only be introduced into a flock by direct im- portation of this germ, generally by fowls from infected premises. As soon as the symptoms of the disease are ob- served the fowls should be separated as much as possible and given re- stricted quarters, where they may be observed and where disinfectants can be freely used. As soon ag the peculiar diarrhea is noticed with any of the fowls the birds of that lot should be changed to fresh ground and the sick ones killed. The infected excrement should be carefully scraped up and burned and the inclosure in which it has been thoroughly disinfected with a one-half per cent solution of carbolic acid, which may be applied with an or- dinary watering pot. Burn dead birds. The germs of the disease are taken into the system only by the mouth, and for this reason the watering troughs and feeding places must be kept thoroughly free from them by fre- quent disinfection with one of the so- lutions mentioned. Treatment of sick birds is not to be recommended under any circumstances. The malady runs its course, as a rule, in one, two or three days, and it can only be checked with great difficulty. oe 8 Roup is one of the most dreaded o: diseases. It is sometimes spoken of as the winter disease. The symptoms are hoarse breathing, swelled eyes, dis- charge at the nostrils, and sometimes a fetid breath. Treatment is not gener- ally satisfactory. The affected birds should be removed, the house cleansed and disinfected. Damp, foul air and cold drafts in the poultry houses shou be carefiilly avoided whenever fowls are subject to rotty. A decrease in the proportion of corn and an increase in the proportion of meat food in the daily ration is held by some to be highly beneficial in warding off this disease. In general, the treatment of the com- mon diseases of fowls is not so satix factory as preventive measures. No- where more than in the poultry busi- ness does that old adage apply, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”—Agricultural Department Bulletin. Dairy Evolution in Denmark. When Denmark farmers found grai. and stock growing unprofitable by rea- son of foreign competition, they did not quit farming, but they began to experi- ment in dairying and fruit and vege- table production for the English mar- ket, says Western Agriculturist. Twen- ty-five or thirty years ago but little was known of scientific dairying, but driven by necessity to improve their dairy products, they have achieved suc- cess in advance of any other country. Young men, and young women, too, be- came expert, and assisted in teaching all the farmers, and the finest quality of butter is made to suit the English market, and it is marketed to perfec- tion and realizes the highest price. They also send frozen milk to London. They have improved their cows to the highest production and use the best dairy machinery. The lesson whicb Denmark has learned from experience is just what we have urged upon our grain and cattle-growing farmers, that when grain and cotton become too cheap for our profitable production by reason of competition of India, Aus- tralia and South America, where land and labor is so much cheaper than in America, we have always urged that our farmers raise more stock and go more into dairy and poultry produc- tion and diversified agriculture. Amer- ican farmers can produce stock for the world’s markets if we will produce the improved breeds required. Low Prices Enjoined.—The courts have enjoined the South Dakota rail- road commissioners from enforcing their order to reduce freight rates in the state, because “the roads cannot af- ford to do business on such terms. Now, why do not the courts enjoin buy- ers of farm products from paying small prices, “because farmers cannot afford to do business on such terms?”—Ex, We put storm doors on our houses, why. not on our barns?

Preliminary Report of the Chief F Warden, St. Paul, Minp., Dec. Ist, 1897: Hon. R. C. Dunn, State Auditor and For- est Commissioner: Sir: The season of possible danger of forest and prairie fires lasted this year longer than usual, and a few fires oc- curred after the middle of November. The recent snowfall, though light, has ex- tended over most of the state, and prob- ably no further danger this year need be apprehended. At a future date, when complete returns from fire wardens have been received, a detailed report will be submitted. Dry and dangerous weather prevailed over an extensive forest area about three weeks in April-May, and again in September-October. A number of fires occurred, but a good proportion of th were extinguished or controlled by wardens and citizens who assisted thi The result has been that no fire proved of very serious magnitude. Pri ably the total damage by forest fires in Minmesota this year will be found not exceed about $14,000. This is an impro: ment over last year; and, considering that the standing timber in the state, at a tow valuation, is worth $100,000,000, the amount of damage is very small. The orincipal work of the fire warden is pre- vention, Each year some _ improve: Ment ought to be expected and made n the fire warden service; amd such cesult will be greatly pomoted shrough a manifestation of public interest in the proper care of our forests. At a low figure, the value, stand of the pine that will be cut in Minnesota this winter is $5,000,000. When sawed «nto lumber at the mills, its value will have increased to $10,000,000, of which in- 80 per cent, or $4,000,000, repre- sents labor. These figures only in part indicate the importance of our forest re- sources. Very respectfully, —C. C. Andrews. Chief Fire Warden. Patents Issued.
