Theehlefof theMuskwakl Indians in

a six year old Indian, Pa-Kee-Ka-Ma

his election says: on account of the sad
death of our late chief, Mnch-Que

this life on the 24th day of October A.
D„ 1900, at 10 o'clock p. m. according
to th. rules and customs and laws of
our tribal, council meeting-was called
and after proper tlm. for weeping IP

after four daya of careful and serions

son of Mach-Que-Push-E-Ta'a bro

Much-Que-Push-E-Ta's son and succes

Tax Perreta Vnhorsed.
Ths tax f«rr*ta have reclvad a
knockout in Mlnneaota. In May, 1899,
the board of county commissioners ot
Blue Earth county enterwl Into a con
tract with a tax ferret, whereby the
ferret agreed to perform certain servic
es In benalf of th. oonnty tn discover
ing and bringing to light unassessed
personal property taxable In said
connty, bat whieh bad escaped such
taxation during 1899 and prior years
*»nd for which aervleee be was to re
ceive compensation equal to one-half
of all tataa petd into ttoieovMy-' tieaa
uty as the result of hi, labors.
The ferret and his assistants discov
ered and reported to the connty Aud
itor,over two million dollars of personal
property that bad escaped taxation, and
the same waa entered on the tax rolls,
iud taxes to the amount of 915,000 waa
collected thereon. An action was then
urought by certain of th. tax payers of
tbe county to restrain the county from
paying for the services so rendered,
l'he trial court held that the contract
iras void and that the ferret could not
recover thereon.
An appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court which affirmed the decision of
the trial court holding that Blue Earth
oounty had not been given authority by
the legislature to make anch a contract.
This decision would not, we presume,
have any bearing In this state on such
contracts entered Into since April 12,
1900, because by an act of the last legis
lature which took effect on that date,
be making of anch contracts is author
ized, the compensation, however, being
limited to fifteen per cent, ot the taxeb
paid Into the oounty treasury by reason
of the services rendered In pursuance
of tbe oontraot.
It Is a queetlon (and one we believe
that Is now pending in the Supreme
Court of this ttate) whether tbe owner
'f property withheld from taxation prior
co 1898, can be made to pay the t-xes
that he ought to have paid thereon.
But an act was passed and took effect
In 1897 (Code, Section 1374) that un
doubtedly authorizes the collection of
Uxes on property withheld from assess'
ment sinoe October 1897.
The following Is the eectlon|clted. in
fall
When property subject to taxation is
withheld, overlooked or from any other
cause Is not listed and assessed, the
oounty treasurer shall, when apprised
thereof, at any time within Ave years
from the date at which such assessment
should have been made, demand of the
person, firm, corporation or other per
whom tbe same should have
been 1 stfd, or to whom it sIRra'd have
been »s essed, or the sdmlni-trator
thereof, tbe amount the property
hould have been taxed In eaoh year
the same was S withheld or overlooked
and not listed and assessed, together
with six per cent. Interest thereon from
the time the taxes woold have become
due and payable had such property
been listed and asressed, and npou fail
ure to pay snch sum within thlrt?
with all accrued Interest, be shall cause
an action to be brought in the name of
the treasurer for the nse of the proper
oounty, to be prosecuted by the oounty
attorney, or auch other person aa tbe
bo»rd of enpervisnra may appoint, and
when auch property haa been frasdulent-
Iv withheld from asftessment, there
shall bn added to the sum found to be
dite a penaltv of fifty per cent npon the
amount wblch shall be Included In the
payment. The amount thns recovered
shall be bv the treasurer apportioned

Too Much Salt.
The whole tendency among consum
er* Is toward freBber butter. In Enar
•ud and on the continent batter mad.
in those countries is served particulaily
freab and white, saya the American Ag
riculturist. In the best restaurants and
hotela In the larger cities of this count
ry tbe batter contain^ very little aalt.
A great number of Americans who go
abroad, or who patronize, city hotels
and reetauranta in this country, are ac
quiring the taste for fresh butter. The
fancy dairies that command extrava
gant prices put oat a product that Is al
most freah. Creameries that are cater
lng to the highest class grocers and the
beet family trade now use only half ar
such aall as they did five or ten years
ago.
Dainty Oalvea.
Probably anyone who haa ever bad
experience with calves has noticed a
difference in their feeding, says a cor
respondent of Tbe National Stockman.
Some are greedy and eat all that is
placed before them others are always
dainty, I have learned that it rarely
pays to "fool" with a dainty calf. Hot
ter put it out of the way. will not
pay for the fussing. Once dainty al
ways dainty, and I have no use for
such an animal in tbe dairy. WH ani
rows thit will eat heartily—the mote
the better—and can size an animal up
pretty well by the time It is a month
old.
Cornmeal is a favprite feed for calvec
with some, but it la tco fattening. A
dairy calf doee not need to be fat.
Time was when a man was ashamed to
own a potbellied calf, but i.owada
unless caused by something else than
eating it is a source of satisfaction rath
er. A dairy cow neds commodious
paunch, and the cow is but tbe calf
grown up. Let tbe heifer calves have
lota of roughage. If there Is a scarcity
«f clover hay, give them corn stover.
They will thrive on it faster the firit
few weeks.
Oow Beef.
A western paper is quoted in th.
Chicago Drovers' Journal as sayint
that at a meeting of stockmen recentl}
they expressed tbe opinou tbat th
price of cows when Bold for beef war
entirely too low. While nominally
classed as "canners" many o' tnem
served as irood purpose as b- steer
and when well fattened would cut up
as well on the block as tbe steer. If
this is true, and we see no reason to
doubt it, It accords with wbat has been
said many times in our dairy not's"
that farmers who find themselves sbott
of forage this fall and have cows tbi
th-) think are so old or give so litre
milk tbat it Is doubtful If it would be
profitable to buy feed for them should
fatten and kill them, Ever since the
large packing houses bave been supply
ioit our markets with dr ed beef they
htve been trying to educate- the people
to believe tbat cow beef was not lit to
eat, and tbe marketmen bave been
ready to assert that tbey bave never
iuhira.Vhe'u%«Tou"d^^^'if bandied anything but steer beef. Yet
they bad been paid according to law. *e believe tbat no small part of what
is cold as "light steer beel" 1B really
cow beef and nono the worse for tbat.

Tbe auditor of state has learned of
a swindling operation which has been
practiced on tbe farmers about Uilburn.
H. E. Boyd, a justice of tbe peace at
Milbnrn, infnrms the insurance de
partment that there is an asBoclatioi
called the Threshers' National Protec
tive association, with headquarters at
621 to S31 Wabash avenue, Chicago,
whioh alleges it la doing an insuranct
business. It* representatives
but.
have in-
surance, ann promising to send pollck
Insuring the machines against fire and
lightning. None of tho policies have
ever teen sent, E, Miller, president
of tbe concern, haB sent the notes of
Boyd, claiming' he was an innocent
purchaser of the paper and wantB
money.
The auditor hss sent a letter to Boyd
Informing him he was rlgfit in surmis
ing tbe scheme a fraudulent one, BB the
company has no legal right to transact
businees in Iowa. The persons who en.
tered into the Bcheme are supposed to
have given ordinary promlsEory notes
for wbloh tbey will probably be held
responsible.

food and when famine In its worst
form was threatened Pope Alexander
VI had made arrangements for the
erection of a magnificent palace. The
best architects had been employed, and
the plans had been submitted and ac
cepted, and an accomplished builder
had been sent for to come from Vcnlce,
a man whoso work had won for him re
nown and who was known to be a tut
and upright mau.
The builder had arrived, and at an
appointed time he watted upon his ho
liness to receive the plans and make his
estimates. "There is one thing yet to
be done," said tho pope. "There has
been no proper Inscription or legend
thought of to be placed over tbe main
entrance of the palace. It should be
put abovo the great gate. You have
litid experience. Do you think of an
Inscription that would be appropriate?"
"If your holiness would pardon me
for the liberty, I might suggest one
most appropriate at this time."
"You are pardoned In advance," said
the pope, smiling. "Now, what shall It
be?"
"Sovereign pontiff, let It be thus:
'Command that these stones be made
bread I'"
The popo was visibly and deeply af
fected. He paid the builder munificent
ly for his expenses of coming and go
ing, and Instead of building his nalace
be fed the hungry ones of bis children.
