and departed on the afternoon train.

Weston, Division Engineer G. P. Cogs-
well, Division Master Mechanic B. E.

senger Agent r. H. Heard.
Mr. Heard, when asked the purpose of
the visit, by Free Press reporter, re-
piled that the party had come simply to
see how the new time card operates.
This card went into effect today and will
be great improvement. The passenger

Mr.. Heard said that the visit had no
connection with the improvements pro-
jected for this spring. He did not know
Just how soon work on the new union de-
pot would begin, but the road desires to
reach the center of the city as soon as
possible. Mr.. Heard said that the eyes
of the officials are on southern Mime
sofa business, and with this in view ex-
cellent freight and passenger schedules
have been prepared. Only one step can
be taken at time. The first is to get a
good time schedule, and the next will be
to get better place to start from.
In regard to the summer passenger
traffic between Mankato and Madison
Lake, Mr.. Heard said that the freight
train leaving Mankato at 6 p. m. and re-
turning to Mankato at 500 a. m. would
have combination passenger and bag
gage car attached This will accommo-
date those who wish to spend the nights
at their lake cottages.

SUGGESTION TO FARMERS.
Why Not Organize a Live Stock Com.
pany, Says "Farmer -

From Mondays Daily.
One who signs himself as Farmer j.
requests The Free Press to publish the
following communication:
"There has, always been what is called
a farmers kick in regard to the weigh
ing of live stock and grain, and it was
not always imaginary. A great many
times he has reason to register a kick
but has it ever helped matters any Isn't
there just as many kicks now as ever?
Now | will not infer that all stock and
grain buyers are dishonest on the other
hand | think they are as honest as the
farmers but there is generally always
some difference. Sometimes shrinkage or
dockage causes trouble; other times there
is difference of weight. Even scales of
disinterested parties will vary.
''There is a remedy for these troubles
and it lies in the power of the farmer to
apply it.
1--WE know what the cooperative
creamery has done for us. We know
what co operative insurance has done for
us. If we will only apply cooperation
along business lines in regard to market
ing our live stock and grain the farmers
kick will soon be history.
But says one we can't agree; there
will be dishonesty and incompetent man.
agement to contend with. etc. We
thought so when we first built our cream
cries but now they are working nice
ly and bringing us good returns.
In marketing our produce in this way
we will eliminate at least one middleman
and the fewer hands our produce passes
through from the time it leaves the
farm until it reaches the consumer the
more profit there will be in it for us.
'The buying of live stock in this city
alone has been profitable enough in
few years to bring at least two men
from comparative humble circumstances
to be perhaps the most influential and
wealthy men in the city besides at times
supporting third party.
IF few of the influential farmers in
this vicinity would take hold and push
the matter along there would soon be
enough in it to bring it to a successful
issue as the expense of buildings. enough
to accommodate the business would not
be great and the means of paying eX
penses could be met .either by a sinking
fund or assessments.
THE merchants and business men of
the city should take a special interest in
this as nothing brings more trade to the
city than a good market.
"A good market can only be had by a
sharp competition and such thing does
not exist in the city as long as there is
a combination to keep prices down with
more or less trouble with the weights.
"The only way to down one combine or
trust is by organizing another and it
will always be the survival of the fit
test"

"Most colds" said well-known ply

who has cold.
"When you are in a close poom with

catch that cold yourself. More colds
are caught through being in ill-venti-

Don't neglect cold. 1t may run into
influenza, rheumatism, consumption or
any of a number of diseases. AS an in

Lovett, a farmer of Galva, Kans. He
says:

before long my health began to run
down. Then began to have twinges in
my legs. They grew worse and about
the twentieth of June had to take to my
bed with rheumatism.
"What cured me? DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. For four
months was unable to do any of the
work about the place, my legs swelled,
1 had terrible pains and the doctor didn't
help me bit. Then my brother-in-law
recommended DR.. Williams Pink Pills
and in about two weeks after beginning
with them I felt better. They did Won
ders for me and now / recommend
them to everyone who suffers as did. ;"
The cure of the severest cases of rheu-
matism by DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People has occurred all over the
land and their power in ordinary cases
is proportionately greater. These mar
velous vegetable pills go directly to the
seat of the trouble and exert powerful
influence in purifying and enriching the
blood by eliminating poisonous elements
and renewing health-giving forces.
They have also cured locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sci
atica, neuralgia, nervous headache, the
after effects of the grip, palpitation of

WORD ABOUT PUBLIC SCALES.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
To the Editor: For some time there
seems to have been a public demand for
public scales in the city of Mankato.
Pursuant to such demand, the city coun-
ell, some time ago. designated the scales
owned by Pihale & He'll as public scales,
and at the same time employed pub
lie weighmaster.
Owing to the lack of experience of the
weighmaster, some complaints have been
made to the effect that these scales were
not correct in all instances. Arrange
ments have been made to the effect that
Messrs. Pihale & He'll, both of whom are
men of much experience in public weigh
ing, will hereafter superintend all weigh
ing to be done upon said scales, and will
guarantee correct weights to everyone.
This guarantee will be backed up by the
personal responsibility of Messrs. Pihale
& He'll, and also a bond given for that
purpose to the city of Mankato.
We hope that this explanation will re-
move any prejudice that may have exist
ed towards these scales, and that the
public will give us a fair trial, we are,
yours to serve,
PIHALE & He'll.
