Separator Burned.

About one O'Clock on Saturday
night Gunder Jenson pulled his thresh-
ing engine and separator upon the
premises of George Salmond, in West
Union, intending to commence thresh
ing early on Monday morning. The
separator WAS left in the yard, only
about thirty feet from Mr.. Salmond's
house. About three O'Clock Mrs. Sal
mond was awakened by a bright light
streaming intothe window, and alarm
ing Mr.. Salmond, he rushed out of
the house to find the separator in
flames and then nearly consumed.
Nothing could be done to saveit. For
tunately there was no wind. and no
other damage was done. How the fire
got its start is mystery, but 1t is
supposed that a spark from the engine
must have lodged in the slow-burning
dust in the Interior of the machine,
until bursting into flame it burned 1t
up. The loss is severe one to Mr..
Jensen. He has purchased new sep
arator.

Severely Bruised.

On Saturday last William Hendry
met with very severe accident, which
will confine him to the house for sew
eral days. He was on his way home
on his wheel and at the corner of Main
and Fourth. sts., in making the turn,
he encountered horse and buggy,
and coll sion occurred, throwing him
violently to the ground. His face was
badly scratched, and his back and one
leg was so severely wrenched that he
was unable to walk, and had to be
conveyed to his home.
The horse was driven by the little
son of d. G, VanCamp, and in the
buggy were two other little fellows.
It is evident that they became con-
fused, and attempted to turn out first
one way and tfen the other. AS both
bicycle and horse were going at good
speed, the collision was eight serious.
One of the shafts was broken and the
horse got loose from the vehicle.

Minnesota Butter in New York.
Under dase of October IL. 1900, the
old, reliable firm of Wheeler &
Schulz, of 312, Washing ton-st., New
York City, writes to Fred Kottke, mar
ager of the Metre Grove Creamery /:
s'We wish TO compliment you on the
general appearance of your goods and
sincerely hope your shipments will
increase, for we can use any quantity
of your kind of butter"
Mr.. KDttke has reason to be proud
of such expressions as quoted, and the
creamery association is to be congrat-
ulated upon having the services of a
man who can earn such pleaaant ex-
pressions.
And what the Metre Grove Creamery
is doing in the way of turning out fine
goods, the Sapk Valley Creamery is
doing in equal measure, except as to
quantity. 1t is gratifying to know
that his List of patrons is increasing,
and the old ones are purchasing more
cows
There is room In this section for
many more creameries. This country
is especially adapted to dairying, and
the expansion of the branch of agri-
cultural industry means much to our
farmers. "A dairying country viii
raise more grain to the acre, which
means more profit to the farmer, and
the farms steadily increase in value.
The HERALD cannot sufficiently inn
press the desirability of increasing
our dairying interests.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Edited by FRED PoPPE.

Last week we were favord with the
presence of the Misses Nellie Jones
and Winchester and Mr.. r. w. A.
Poppe at our afternoon exercises.
This pleasant spring weather. has
inspired our boys to play ball. They
devote every recess to it's enjoyment
and are already talking of organizing
their 'nines.' Among the special
talked-of organizations is one to be
formed Of senior boys only.
Most of the young people from the
country who are attending our high
school have-gone home to spend the
vacation.
The common spring greeting: Isn't
this fine weather?
This week the seniors are supposed
to devote a good share of their time
to the preparation of their final ora
tions.
The common theory is that puns are
decreasing but Judging by the every
day April fools it seems that they are
increasing.
1t will not be very long before
school is out. We can already num-
ber the days when our happy school
life in the Milbank high school will be
over with.
Next week when school commences
the scholars will find everything as
neat as a pin in consequence of the jan
itor's efforts during the vacation week.
Don't forget to visit our school at
least once this year and carry away a
real impression of perfect order.
