Fells of Old Trip Through Northwest to Winnipeg

He endures heavy snowdrifts after a blizzard, shoveling 20 miles, sleeping outdoors, and foraging for fresh teams while contending grim winds and perilous cold. He meets Judge Malmros at Old Crossing, shares cigars, and resumes the dog train journey toward Grand Forks Red River region.

Value of a 350 pound butter cow compared to 175 pound one
A historical note calculates that a cow yielding 350 pounds of butter annually would net $55.00 profit after $40.00 in yearly feed, versus $3.75 for a 175 pound cow. It argues that fifteen 175 pound cows equal the 350 pound cow in profit and estimates the 350 pound cow’s value at $895.16 on a 6.2 percent return basis, urging businesslike appraisal of cow quality rather than price alone.
