II is not genrally known that the rail

on the mail line steamer. Samuel +.
Covington, postmssters at Rising Sun in
1916, addressed letter TO Hon. Caye
johnson, Postmaster General, calling his
attention TO the fact that twelve hours
was lost for waymail by carrying it from
Cincinnati or Louisville to Madison for
distribution, and advised the appoint
ment OF a travelling postmaster" on the

in the great railway mail service.

Marvellous Endurance,

The Medical Profession.
The attitude of the medical profession
toward what is known as "patent medi-
c1nes" is not at all unreasonable. Thou
sands of these nostrums are offered to
the public every year. Some of them are
dangerous, and most of them are futile.
Swift's Specific IS. S. S., we are all glad
to say, is not classed among these nos
trums. 1t has overcome the wholesome
preju1ices of physicians in all parts ofthe
country, and some of the strongest tes-
timonials in its behalf come from medical
men who have used it in their practice,
and who do not hesitate to endorse its
wonderful results. This is extremely
gratifying, but by no means astonishing,
for every claim that is put forward in
behalf of S. S, S. is based on a series ex-
periments extended over long period of

Of the people you meet from day to day
has perfectly pure, healthy blood. The
hereditary scrofulous faint afflicts the
large majority of people, while many
others acquire diseases from impure air,
improper food and wrong indulgences.
Hence the imperative necessity for re-
liable blood purifier like Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, which eradicates every impurity,
and gives to the blood vitality and health.
1t cures scrofula, salt rheum, humors,
boils, pimples, and all other affections

in the blood. All that is asked tor Hoods

THE CREAMERY.-A meeting of the di
rectors of the creamery association o
this city was held on. Saturday and il
was decided to openfor active operation!
| on the 10th of this month-one weel
from next Monday. The resignation O
E. p. Barnum as secretary was received
and R. T. Greene was elected to fill the
vacancy. The association has eighty
FIVE pledged patrons, in three distinct
cream routes, averaging about eleven
cows each. The price to be paid the first
month for cream has been fixed at fifteen
cents per guage-each guage making
approximately pound of butter.
1t will be observed from this statement
that the farmer will receive fifteen cents
at his door for cream which, when made
into butter by himself and marketed.
would not realize much of any more than
that amount, and that, too, in cash
whereas a very large per cent. of the but
ter marketed is paid for in trade. In
fact, our merchants cannot afford to pay
cash for butter at the market price here
and take the chances of shipping. There
is no money in shipping average butter,
and every merchant who handles it will
tell you that he has meyer made any
profit in handlingit, and frequently meets
with heavy losses.
There is every argument in favor of
patronizing a creamery. The farmer and
his family are relieved from a vast
amount of drudgery, and convert their
cream into cash with absolute certainty,
receiving their pay monthly. 1t is no
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES tried the results
have been satisfactory. The prosperous
farming communities to-day are the dairy
districts thick1y dotted with cheese fac
tories and creameries. Under this condi-
ton farms increase in value, for they are
better fortified and time is saved which
is pro6tably expended in other branches
of agriculture. The creamery system in
sures far more economy in the methods
of handling milk, and the advantage
over the cheese factory Is found In the
fact that the sweet skinned milk is left |
at home to be used In a hundred ways
chiefly In keeping the calves In " +i-'4. ,
y ~...nty
and growing condition. The secondary
result, too, IS seen in the Improvement
Of stock. The patrons of creamery will
soon learn that it does not pay to keep
COWS of low grade of cream-producing
qualities. 1t costs no more to keep a
low which will yield from six to nine
guages of cream per week than one which
will produce only four or five.
The cIeamery here is under excellent
and may be relied upon to
give its patrons perfect satisfaction. A
butter maker will be here to
take charge OF the work at the opening.

The annual meeting of the patrons
of the Howard Lake cheese factory oc-
Cured few days ago and from report
published in the Herald ten pounds
of milk were needed for a pound Of
cheese. The price obtained for the
cheese averaged eight cents pound. The
patrons received what was equivalent to
from sixteen to eighteen cents per pound
for butter, and were saved the work of
making the butter. This information
will be interesting to many of our read
ers on account of the local interest in
Sank Centres new creamery.
The poor farm scheme meets with
favor in st. Cloud. The city council has
referred the matter to its legislative COM
mittee to have bill drawn for. the es-
tablishment of county aims house, and
the sooner it is enacted the better for
Stearns county tax payers. The care of
the poor is not only burden, but it is
most unevenly distributed. Agood poor
farm will relieve the county in full, or in
greater part, from this great expense, by
making the paupers self supporting. By
all means let us have county poor
farm. e
The appeal case against County-sur-
veyor Chute and others in the matter of
the re-survey of Sank Centre. came up in
chambers before Judge Searle on Satur-
day last. The committee from this city
was represented by Messrs. Petit and
Townsend. The cases were argued by
County Attorney Taylor for the county
and d. T. Calhoun for the defendants.
The appeal was sustained, and the county
will not pay the bills. That settles the
matter as far as taxing up anything
more against property in this city, but
t does not undo what has already been
1ont in the matter of assessments-a
thousand dollars or more haying already
been extended against property in the |
southern portion OF the city. 1t is now
to commence an action to set
aside this illegal assessment.

Prof. Woodley appeared before the
board and asked that the price for the

went wholly for the benefit of the school.
It appeared that SIS would cover the
the actual cost, and the Professors re-
quest was granted.
Mrs. o. B. Phelps moved to the city
from the township, and before she had
gained legal residence here, she became
public charge. The council made pro-
vision for her, temporarily, and sent the
bill to the supervisors. The latter re-
jected the bill. On this being shown, the
city attorney was instructed to take the
necessary steps to collect the money from
the town.
