OF LEIGH DIES
Early Wednesday Morning at Little
Palls, After A Brief Illness
With Acute Mania
M. L. Dimnick   of   Li
in Little  Palls  early  yesterday
morning*, al s    ill
ness with Acute Mania.
Mr. Diinnii i I 1G0 id

to the
city ies of   Minneapolis
for s ping*.    After   a
days'   stay    at   the    Hen
County Court House, the Countv
physician considered him   ■
ciently cleared up, to allow him
to  resume   his   journey     i
ward. - Shortly after his arrival
<*it home Friday evening*,   ii
gain showed strong    symptoms
of mental confusion  and   hallucinations.    By  Tuesday    m

come so violent that it
the strength of four or five  men
to hold him.    His brother. H.M
Dimnick, an attorney oi Cuyuna,
who had been sent for, had   him
taken to  Little   Falls  Tuesday
ing*, where, as above stated
he died   from   exhaustion  earlj*
yesterday morning*.
His remains were takeu to
Good Thunder, his former home
for burial. Mr. Dimnick had
lived in the town of Leig*habout
three years and held the o
of chairman of the town board
at the time of his death.
He is survived by a   wife   and
one daughter.
well
kind
sum-
Mr. Dimnick's case ran an almost typical course. A large
percent of these cases die in as
short a time as three days, while
only now and then a case recovers entirely.
According to the best authorities, many autopsies of these
unfortunates, reveal no morbid
condition, while some show capillary hemorrhages in the
of the brain.
It is strange that the Hennepin County court commissioner
allowed Mr. Dimnick to take a
train, and yet, when phoned to
about the particulars, at once
advised that he should be watched ami taken care of.
GOOD MONEY IN PURE BRED COWS
A record for the past year
kept by T. B. McCullach, manager of the St. ('loud reformatory
farm, shows conclusively that
there is a '.food profit in a
cared for herd of the right
I of cows. Following is a
mary of the record for 1911:
Ihe   average    production   of
milk for 42 head of  grade   Holstein and  Short-horn    cows    for
'the year just co is   5, 198
pounds of milk per cow. with an
average test of 4    per   cent   for
I butter fat.
The average number of days
that each of these cows gave
milk was 283; tlie average a-
mount of butter produced being
242 pounds per cow.
The average cost of feed of
the herd was $29.23 per cow.
The average net earnings of
tiiese grade cows being about
$'d7 each.
The milk from each one of
tiiese cows was weighed every
milking, and tested at least
twice a month for butter fat.
The feed is weighed out to
these cows and charged up to
them at market prices; $1.00 per
month being allowed for pasturage during the summer.
No. 199 .grade Shorthorn cow,
proved to be the largest producer in her class; producing 7,'172
pounds of milk and 334 pounds
of butter.
No. 47, same class, was a close
second, with 6,230 pounds of
milk, and l>2\ pounds of   butter.
One pure bred Holstein cow
produced 11.084 pounds of milk
testing 4.1, in 301 days. The a-
mount of butter from this producer was 593 pounds. This
cow* received the same care as
did the others. She was fed according to her production, the
cost being $79.88. Her net
earnings were $86.1f3. Tnis cow
is producing butter at a cost of
about 13 cents per pound.
Seven more pure bred Holstein
cows have been recently added
to the herd. The management
plans to gradually change from
graded stock to pure bred animals, it being the intention to
eventually have a herd composed
of pure bred Holsteins, believing them to be the most economical producers of dair}' products. —Transcript.
