The Silver Cornet Band concert at
Turner Hall last Saturday evening
we are sorry to say, was not a success
financially. This must deprecated by
all literally inclined citizens, as the
band has always been very moderate
in their charges, and on public occa-
sions has frequently turned out with
out compensation at all. Proper en-
couragement on the part of our citi-
zens is due the band, and we hope that
when they again arrange an entertain
ment much more liberal patronage will
be accorded them. We cannot expect
this or any other band to become pro-
ficient unless due encouragement is
accorded. Musically speaking, the
concert was a success, and the several
pieces rendered were very credit.
able to all the performers. Especially
did Henry Neuman and Otto Setter
deserve and receive the plaudits of the
audience. The encore of Master Fred
die Hers and Miss Kiesling was also
we'll merited.

A young, unknown man was drowned
at lie Sueur last week while rescuing
little girl who had fallen into the

in bringing her near enough to the
bank for her friends to grasp her with
boat hook and bring her safely to
shore, but before they could turn their
attention to him, the man went under
and was seen nOmore.

The Tribune says that the elevator
of the Winona & St. Peter railroad at
St. Peter is being taken down and will
be shipped to Nordland, D. r.. This
leaves St. Peter with only one eleva-
tor, but it is not improbable that the
citizens will take the matter in hand
and build one of their own, in opposi-
ton to Van Dusen & Co.

An Iowa paper is authority for the
| following: About this time last year
the press was urging reform in the
butter market in respect to quality
and prices. This summer thousands
of COWS whose milk could not be pro-
perly converted at home for the lack
of knowledge or facilities, will pour
their treasures into creameries. The
result will be, it is true, higher
price for butter, but reliably higher
quality also, and great profit to far
mers. Now we want the farmers to
make the profit. AS they are pros
porous we all gain something; as they
fail in making profit, we all lose some-
thing, so let the good work go on.
Multiply the creameries and bring on
your Jerseys and Holstines; we want
more butter and cheese to the COW;
we want farmers to learn the differ.
ence between keeping cows which on
the same feed will produce $50 and
500 per annum than those that pro-
duce only $l5 to 500. Breed and care
will put upon every dairy farm COWS
that will give per year $4,000 to Is, 900
pounds of milk. In the creameries
here, and to be, lie the germ 0fhigher
labor, better homes, less debt, more
leisure, refinement and the things in.
effable which belong in the farmer
life where prosperity smiles upon his
flocks and herds.
