"Itcdtvoocl Oonnty Farmers Receive $205,000 In a Year. The annual meetings of the various co-operative creameries in Redwood county have been held and from the reports made by the officers the indi cations are that the creamery butter output of the county for 1900 will be in the neighborhood of 1,500,000 pounds, the average price of which has been about 20 cents a pound, making a total of $300,000 turned into the exchequers of the different Redwood county creameries during the past year. De ducting $35,000 for running expenses, etc., the actual amount turned over to the farmer patrons was about $265,- O00. This does not include the re ceipts frcm the sale of dairy butter placed.on the market by those farmers who do not care to patronize cream erjes, or live in too remote regions to patronize them. It is estimated that the proceeds from the sale of this class of butter was in the neighborhood of $50,000. Ten years ago the creamery Industry was practically a new matter in Redwood county. Since 1892 the question has been agitated to such an extent that there are now fifteen -creameries in the county, and all of them are conducted on a good paying basis. During the past year three new creameries were put in operation, and while they are located in thinly settled districts, the directors report the firFt year's run as being- highly satisfactory to them.

The state commission appointed to Investigate and report on the condition of the state asylums and hospitals for the insane is heartily in favor of the plan now being pursued in the,- new in stitutions at Anoka and Hastings. In a report submitted to the governor and signed by Dr. C. E. Riggs and Dr. W. P. Milligan, especial mention is made trf the benefits received by patients in smaller institutions, with especially fa vorable comment on the work of Dr. Carmichael at Hastings and Dr. Cole man at Anoka. The report states that patients in smaller hospitals come in personal con tact with their superintendent, are less crowded, have more open-air exercise and better invironment, all of which Is advantageous. Recommendations made are that the nurses and other attending patients be quartered in separate cottages that isolated wards or cottages be furnished for contagious diseases, and for the es tablishment of a colony for epileptics. Special care of insane criminals is pro posed. Employment for all insane pa tients is strongly advocated. Attention is also called to the need of a patholo gist and a. pathological laboratory at the state university. NOTIFIES COUNTY AUDITORS. State Auditor ExplaiuH RullngH on 1899 ax Xaw. State Auditor Dunn has issued a cir cular to the county auditors of the state calling attention to the recent decision of the supreme court on the law of 1899 for the collection of taxes that became delinquent prior to 1897. ft also calls attention to the opinion of Ihe attorney general holding that own rs wishing to redeem their property must pay into the county treasury the full amount of taxes, penalties, inter est and costs charged against the prop erty. Redemption, according to the attor ney general's opinion, will be permitted on the same terms utfon all tracts bid in for the state at the forfeited 'sale. IVhen property was sold to an actual purchaser for less than the full amount of taxes he is only entitled to receive the actual amount paid by him with Interest. Where the property sold at a, premium above the full amount of taxes, interest penalties and costs the purchaser is not entitled to any inter est on the premium. CAXNOT CtT ICE. Mlnnenota Conrt Renders Deeixlon in Favor of Property Owner*. The supreme court decided by a ma jority opinion that the People's Ice Company of St. Paul cannot cut ice on White Bear lake for sale, the suit hav ing been brought by property owners on the lake shore who alleged that the cutting of ice reduced the lake level and was therefore injurious to them. Two justices dissented, maintaining that the lake was public property and anybody who wished could cut ice there. The case has been hard fought and involves a large amount of money, the ice company having a large invest ment at the lake. Went to the Hottom.

This is, a cozy little den of mine, just as it looks now, quite eclipses anything I ever see at the club books, pipes, easy chairs, a cheerful fire In the grate pictures, busts, my well-beloved etch ings all about the walls. What's the matter with you, old man, tonight? Why are you taking an inventory of these surroundings on this last night of the year? Everybody thinks you are tired of them, don't you know, for you spend very little time in their midst, says some provoking little voice. (Wonder if It's my con science.) Dorothy is up stairs, the servants are out as soon as she finishes .the sewing of a button* on Johnnie's re fractory trousers she will come down, she says, and watch the old'year out, being evidently well pleased over the prospect of a club night of our own, a little "Home, Sweet Home" sort of an arrangement. It seems that Johnnie is the only member of our family not a member of a club. Dorothy simply holds on to the little shaver by the collar, tied to her apron strings he is, and I am glad of it. Can I ever forget the day when our THIS IS A COZY LITTLE DEN. neighborhood took on a sudden quiet? The question arose, where are tho boys? Dorothy and I knew all about it, for were we not invited to become honorary members of their club, 'jjfhe Ollapodrida?" We helped to foot the bills and evinced an interest in the affairs of the club wo lent them ten cents to buy material to reseat an old worn-out chair there was another Item twenty-five cents for lumber, etc., and last, but not least, and that which caused Dorothy much suffering. were sundry pieces of rope to be fur nished with all the paraphernalia of a trapeze arrangement, preparatory to meanderings a-oft, all of which caused a rush of blood to my head, as I thought of these venturesome boys, three of them at work daily, experi menting with the center of gravity, walking on their heads being the ob jective point apparently. We are happily rejoicing these days, however, In a more recent occupant of the family cradle, who so far walks feet downward after the fashion of mortals. As time goes on, the children's youthful exploits, with the accom panying worries of their elders, fade into oblivion, as the more serious as pect confronts us. The Ollapodrida members of my family have taken unto themselves a few extra years two of these afore said members are looking college ward, and I seem to worry about them in a wonderful way quite unlike my self. The bread and butter question con fronts me? What profession will be theirs? Are they sufficiently strong In purpose to resist this or that? The day will come, when Dorothy and I cannot shield them or stand be neath them and the cold world we won't be here to settle the little ac counts or encounters, or watch the lit tle cotillions they are going to have with the dwellers of this mundane sphere. Then comes the question over again: "Well, old fellow, what's the matter now? Can't you let the boys alone, and let them fight it out just as you did?" Some truth In that, I an.swer. "I will wait until Dorothy comes and I'll ask her, just for curiosity, what she thinks of my past, and the general outlook." In part I am going to turn over a new leaf. Here is a volume of Longfellow be side me on the table he is so human, yy know, and I will close my eye*, open the book (a litlte game of chance, you fcee), and on the page, where my finger reste I will try if by chance a word of comfort come to me, that would hit my case. I seem to have a case of the blues probably staying away from the flub on this convivial occasion is not agree ing with me, "Shut yOur eyes, open the book," says the little cxhorter, that unseen Individual. PrestochangeO, what meets my eye? Will it be some dire prophecy S 'J or~ Here it is under my forefinger: "A Shadow." It reads: I Bald to myself If II were dead, What would befall these children? What would be Their fate, who are now looking up to me For help and furtherance? Their lives, I said, Would it be a volume wherein have read But the first chapters, and no long er see To read the rest of their dear history So full of beauty and so full of dread. Be comforted the world is very old. And generations pass, as they have passed, A troop of shadows,moving with the sun Thousands of times has the old tale been told The world belongs to those who come the last, They will find hope and strength as we have done. Was ever answer sent to a mortal man more clearly? I think I'm sent for there's some thing besides old Father Time after me, surely. Here is the very answer to my dismals as to those boys and their doings. But here comes Dorothy, singing, apparently in a very cheerful mood. "This is perfectly lovely, George Augustus. "Johnnie's trousers are all right for tomorrow, and I have been looking over my precious tin box, and I find such lovely bits of literature and all sorts suppose we look them over to night." Perhaps Dorothy noticed an unusual expression on my manly countenance, for she paused and said: "What are you thinking about? What has this old year been saying to you? Are you having a retrospective sort of revival meeting all by yourself?" "Only a few ideas have struck me, Dorothy. I rather like this den of mine, especially tonight, and one or two articles in these books here Beem to have been written especially for me, and an uncomfortable little voice has been questioning me. A thought strikes me that we, you and I, have drifted apart rather more than I ever dreamed we could. There has been a sort of 'We fellows a the club' air and manner about me, that I really tlii*?^ now, ps I =lt re his b?p.n 5 fWushuesfc on my PAft that I shall endeavor to discontinue a sort of desire to be 'in with the boys' and 'off with my wife.' I hope, Dorothy, thru you do not think my past is really a dreadful one to look back upon." "O, no," Dorothy replied, with some^ thing of a twinkle in her eyes "but, then, you know, you might be more of a saint, if you tried, dear." "And perhaps, most noble and ador able (my temper rising) and twen tieth century wife, If I should give up my Sunday evenings at the club, pos sibly you may be willing to sacrifice a few of those insufferable 'teas' and bring an appetite uucontamlnated with such diet as sipping frappes, Russian teas and chocolate \p a respectable, cozy dinner with your George Augus tus and," (pausing for breath) "don't be angry couldn't you leave out that tiresome, quarrelsome card party and await my return with unruffled nerves, for instance, meet me at the door just DOROTHY IS REALLY ELOQUENT, as you used to do, little wife?" (grow ing a little more tender). "Why, whatever can be the matter with you, George Augustus? It is only a case of too many clubs in the family, that is all easily remedied, you know. If this is to be a Home club tonight, let us invoke the spirit of the New Year here, right under this roof let us stand here, and with the right hand uplifted vow that naught shall come between thee and me, George Augustus and Dorothy we will reach that land of trust and confidence that requires no weapon, not even a club, to create or quell a disturbance." Dorothy is really elo quent. "Bring down the tin box, Dorothy "we are 'the Ollapodrida club' (the tin box, Dorothy and I) in memory of those boys who are drying another sort of trapeze swinging high or low with the wings of ambition, up to greater heights." By the way, Dorothy sketches and paints. I will glvo her a subject, earth, sky and water, the soft greon turf, the blue ethereal, the hazy moun tain top, while the lazy lapping waves touch the eager feet of the climbers yet In the valley as they stand on the shore twlxt earth and sea, gird ed and armed for the steep ascent to the shrine on the distant heights.

Tho return of New Year's day in vites mauy people to the most somber reflections. Undoubtedly most of us can find abundant occasion for these, but there is such a thing as pushing self-examination and self-condemna tion to the point of discouragement. The best temper with which we can enter upon the new year Is that of faith, faith in God and faith in our selves through His help. It is about as certain as anything can be that the new year- will bring us new experi ences. Our courage, our capacity for endurance, our steadiness of character and power of resistance is to be tested. At the end of the year we are going to be nobler men and women than we are today, or we shall have deterior ated morally, and forever afterward there will bo narrowing opportunities. While we think of the latter alterna tive it is well to strengthen our hearts by the former. Let us believe that wo are not going to fail and we have taken a long step towards success. When another New Year's day comes around we are going to bo able to reckon solid gains in character won through the trials and temptations and emergen cies of the year's experience.Boston Watchman.

Mrs, Passmore has suffered much bodily pain during the last three years through Kidney and Bladder Trouble. At times the pain was al most unbearable, and tho good lady was very much distressed. She tried physician after physidau, and each in turn failed to relievo her, let alone effect a cure. Home remedies sug gested by anxious friends were ap plied, but all to no purpose. At last some one spoke of Dodd'a Kidney Pills as a grent remedy for all Kidney and Bladder Diseases, and Mrs. Pass more decided to try them. She did, and is now a well woman. She has given the following statement for pub lication: At different times In the past three years, 1 have suffered severely with Kidney and Bladder Trouble, and af ter trying four of the best physicians I could hear of, two of them living in the state of New York, I found my self no better.
