Cortallis (Incite, OCEANS OF MILK. . "There are $2,000,500,000 in vested in the dairying business in this county." said a citizen with a predilection of statistics to a Phila delphia Press man. "The amount is almost double the money invest ed5 ft Banking and commercial industries. It is estimated that it requires 15,000,000 cows to supply tie demand for milk and its pro- ducts in the United States. To teed these cows 60,000,000 acres of land are under cultivation. The agricultural, dairy machinery and implements in -tise are worth over $200,000,000. The men em ployed in business number 750,000 and the horses over 1,000,000. The cows and horses consume annually 80,000,000 tons of hay, 90,000,000 bushels of corn-meal, about the same amount of oat-meal, 575, 000,000 bushels of oats, 2,000,000 bushels ot bran, and 30,000,000 Husheit, of corn, to say nothing of the brewery grains sprous, and other questionable feed of various kinds that are used to a great ex tent.. It costs $150,000,000 to feed tHese'cows and horses. The aver age -price paid to the laborer . necessary in the dairy business .is probabiy $20 a month, amount ing to $180,000,00 a year. i'The average cow yields about 450 gallons of milk a year, which gives a product ol 0,750,000,000 gallons. Twelve cents a gallon is a fair price to estimate the value of this milk, a total return . to the dairy farmer of $810,000,- .. 000 if he sold all his milk as milk. But 50 per cent of the milk is . made into cheese and butter. It takes 29 pounds of milk to make one pound of butter, and about 10 pounds to make one of cheese. There is the same amout of nutri tion in 8 pounds of milk that is hi one pound of beef. A tat steer furnishes 59 per cent of boneless beef, but it would require about 24,000,000 steers weight 1,500 pounds each to produce the same amount- nutrition as the annual milk product does. THE NEXT SPEAKER. The piospects of a special ses sion of congress in October have stimulated the various candidates for-the speakership of the Fifty-first congress, and already an active campaign has been begun by each. The leading candidates for office are William McKinley, of Ohio; Joseph G. Cannon,, of Illinois; Julius Burrows, of Michigan; and Thomas Reed, . of Maine. With the exception of Reed, it is said, all these candidates have the en dorsement and support of the dele . gations of their respective states. McKinley expects also the Indiana delegation and some from " the South. Burrows hopes to secure the endorsement of the congress men from the Northwest. Can non claimes to possess the influ ence of the administration, which will be ' exerted in his behalf. Reeed's chances for the place are apparently very poor. He is re cognized as one of the most bril liant men on the floor of the house, but there seems to be a general desire, even among the Maine delegation, to keep him there, where he can l'Mmore value than in the speaks, chair. He has, however, a number of friends m the New England states who will do all in their power to grati fy his ambition. " Butterworth, ol Ohio, is said to be the only dark horse in the race Bola&. He hopes in case McKin ley fails, to seoure votes enough to place him in the- chair. ; The western states have not de oided upon any particular cacdi. date, but they could, not dt wrong in choosing any of those so far named.

United States commissioners have for some time past been ne gotiating with the Sioux Indians in Dakota for the purchase of a part ol their lands, amounting to about 11,000,000 acres, which it is pro posed to throw open to settlement. In order to secure this laiid it is necessary to have the signatures of 4000 indian men to the deed, and the present prospects are very unfavorable towards securing the requisite number, many of the In dians opposing the disposition" of the lands. Much has been said about the natural wealth of this particular part of the Indian reservation, and some have characterized it as 'the garden spot of Dokota." A Colorado paper is doubtful if the new country is as desirable as these glowing pictures make it ap pear. It resembles in .. some re spects that part of Nebraska which lies immediately south of it, which is unproductiveenough. How ever,, it is probably not so dry, for it is nearer the Missouri river, and the aridity of the western country seems to depend to some extent upon the distance from that river. Undoubtedly there are some de sirable locations, and in. case the is opened to settlement, there will be a great scramble for them. It is possible that these supposed bar ren spots could, by cultivation and proper attention, be made produc tive, and there will be found many people who will be willing to make the trial. The opening of the country would result in good for south Dakota by increasing her population and weallh. Telegram. MOTHERS! Castoria is recommended by physicians for children teething.

Y., whose Safe Remedies, especially Warner's Safe Cure, have attained such success and celebri y at home and abroad?" The question is inspired as much by affection a? curiosity, since through hii instrumentality hundreds of thousands, in both hemispheres, have been restored to health and happiness. Hon. H. H. Warner, then, is a leading and honored resident of Rochester, net only, but a prominent and influential citizen of the United State3. On several occasions chosen by bis party as a Na tional delegate to nominate a President of the Republic, he has been a member of the Republican State Committee and of its Executive Committee. He is a member of the American Institution for the Advancement of Science ; President of the Rochester Chamber of Commerce ; a successful and upright business man. He has given away fortunes in charities. The celebrated- and costly Warner Observatory of Rochester was conceived, endowed, and is maintained 1?y him. His munificent prizes for the discovery of comets has been at once the wonder and delight of the scientific world. The yellow fever scourage in the South, the Ohio - floods, the fire disasters of Rochester and other cities awakened his profoundesj sympathies and in each in stance his check for from $509 to $5,000 swelled the several relief funds. Where other wealthy men give tens and hun dreds, he gives hundreds and thousands. His charities are as ready and magnifi cent as his enterprises and public spirit are boundless. . The world has need of more such men. An incident led him into the manufact ure of medicine. Seized some twelve years ago with what the ablest physicians termed fatal kidnev disease, he was miraculously restored to health by what is now known as Warner's Safe Cure. At once he resolved to make known the merits of so potent a remedy, and the consequence is that to-day he has im mense laboratories and warehouses in the United States, Canada, England, Germany, Austria, Australia and Bur mah. Sales of his Safe Remedies are enormous, and their power over disease simply marvelous. The merit of a production is in exact keeping with the character of its pro ducer. An honest and reliable man him self, Mr. Warner makes honest and reliable medicines a fact abundantly at tested by their phenomenal efficacy and popularity. MAX.
