should be given in Dist. No. 6S last
Friday EVENING". J. G.. Freeberg
and L. M. Sorenson returned from St.
Paul Thursday, where the latter had
been in attendance at the butter-mak-
ers' convention -. Rev J. 0. Lund-
oerg has returned from St. Paul.
where he has been in attend ance at
a conference meeting The new
Alpha separator recently placed in
the creamery proved very satisfac-
tory. They are capable of separating
5000 pounds Of milk per hour. The
slow work as we'll as the shrinkage
caused by the old ones are now re-
medled; and the butter-maker as we'll
as the patrons are feeling very happy
on that account. About 10, 600 pounds
OF milk is being delivered at the
creamery four times week. Miss
Julia Granquist is at present visiting
friends in Willmar. Misses Urn and
Nelson conducted religious services
at Erick Faulk's last Wednesday af-
ternoon. They left tor Kerkhoven
the latter part of the week. The
ladies' sewing society and coffee
social met at Gust Blomgren's last
Wednesday afternoon. It's said that
a snug little sum was realized. Wei
understand the proceeds are to go to
purchase pipe organ for the church.
That is indeed a wise move and we
wish you great success, ladies. 80.

The loudest tones are not always
the most soul stirring" ''The clock
with the loudest tick is not always the |
BEST" 1T is the empty wagon that
makes most noise" while driving over
the frozen ground nowadays. >. Some
of our farmers haul their wheat to
Kandiyohi as they say they get bet-
ter grade for it there than they do in
Willmar. The Sveaites are not to be |
caught mapping. We think it is a |
great shame of the authorities in
Willmar who have pledged themselves
to rigidly enforce the law, to allow it
to be so openly violated as to permit |
a liquor house to be established and
do business there. Willmar has for
about two years been considered to be
a dry, clean, temperance town, but
hereafter it will no doubt be the oppo-
site. The liquor house will not only
degrade Willmar, but the entire coun-
ty will have to suffer for it. But then
the people have themselves to blame,
and many of the temperance republic
cans have no doubt already seen what
folly they made at the polls last
fall, and they will be cure to not re-
peat it again. KID MCCHEE.
