Sank Lake Creamery Association.
AS a result of several meetings held
by farmers during the winter, the
Sank Lake cooperative crc"mery was
organized on April 2, consisting of
sixty members who pledged them
selves to deliver the mi * of $40 cows
We are confident We can secure ID
membership of 100 who viii deliver
the milk of 1000 COWS. A MEETING
will be held in the city hall on Satur-
day, April IL, to increase our number
ship and we invite every ia rner in
this Vicinity to turn out and give his
support to Il much needed enterprise.
1t is our intention to form one of the
strongest associations aud 10 build
at Sank Centre. We believe that you
are interested in the cooperative
creameries of our state and that it is
your desire to aid in their upbuidino
to the fullest extent. You doubtless
know that there is strong move
ment, backed by large capital, which
seeks to divert the cooperative cream
cries to one large creamery by repre-
senting that the returns are far better
by dealing with one large creamery,
commonly called 'Lhe trust Much
cream is being sent to the twin cities
to the detriment of country creameries
as well as the cooperative movement
among the farmers. Corporation
has been II God-send to all The south
ern counties of our state. Farmers
are growing wealthy aud land has
advanced from S25 to $75 Pc acre in
the past five years. Freedom county
alone has twenty eight creameries in
a fourishing condition. New, why
not Stearns county? At least let US
spend one afternoon together discuss
ing the possibilities, and let that one
be next Saturday afternoon. We are
all aware that to undo all that has
been done by the farmers toward
q
ton along dairy lines in this country
is the logical result of the success Of
the trust. It's complete success means
the closing of every creamery and
submission of the people to the will of
the trusts. The contention that the
trusts can and do pay more to the
farmers than a good cooperative
creamery cannot be substautiated and
we want to show you, and can without
question, that the CO. operative cream
cry is one of the greatest blessings
that has-e ever come to the farmer.
We can produce facts which show that a
cooperative creamery paws the farm
err best by manufacturing their own
butter at actual cost, and that the
Introduction of the cooperative sepa-
rator creamery will mark the begin
ing of greater financial prosperity in
our community. J. F. CoYLE.

WHITE WAXWORMS
Public Opinion.

p On the banks of the river Aiming In
China there grows -tree-knoWn as the
Ligustrum Lucidum-wh1ch in the spring
becomes covered with little excrescences
about the size Of a pea. If we cut one of
the bulbs we shall find inside what at

anime the contents carefully we shall dis
cover myriads of eggs which represent
the product Of an insect known as the
white waxworn -gL ..
The latter part of April the Chinese
gather these bulbs and put them into little
bags-each containing about one-half
pound in weight-after which they are
carried to the town Of Chatting, where
there is regular market for this queer
product. At Chatting the bags are emp
tied and the contents redistributed in lit
tie sacks made Of leaves. about twenty
of these bulbs being placed in each bag,
and after the leaves have been pierced
with holes they are suspended from the
branches of tree, which botanically
named is the F'raxinus Chinensis. Of
these trees we find large plantations
being the feeder Of the worms as the
Ligustrum was the producer. ~ :.:<s
It generally requires. about fifteen days
for the larvae to complete their trans

order to protect them these tiny mothers

males complete this work of preservation
by secreting greasy matter which in
time completely covers the trunk and

nese and Is the purest of white wax

carefully scrape the trunk Of the, tree and

FISH SHOWER
Rain OF Black Bass Susceptible to a
Very Plausible Expla- Ill
nation.
New Orleans Times-Democrat.

New Orleans I1meS-DemOcrat
Have I ever seen it rain fish? l have.
have seen it rain frogs and tadpoles,
too. Why. only the other day l was
standing out in front of certain mans
residence uptown, when suddenly glanced
over into the gutter I was surprised to
find fish about three inches losg swim
ming around in the gutter. Tha day be-
fore that the gutter was perfectly dry,
and the heat of the sun left great cracks
in the mud How did the fish get there?-
You may think the rain washed 1t IN
from some other place. That is impossi-
BILE, because of the peculiar topography of
that section. 1t fell from the clouds-it
was rained in the gutter, it came down
with the water. When I told my friend
that this was what had happened he
laughed, Of course, at what he thought to
be an absurd idea. But the little incl
dent put me In a reminiscent mood and
I recalled thing or two of other days,
when I witnessed more forcible examples
of the same principle. And I told the
stories. Some years ago / was at a
popular place on the gulf coast, a place
which had become famous for fine fish
ing, and particularly for the big catch Of
black bass, which have marked the sport
IN that region. There Is q. fine sweep Of
clear tableland at that place, and it
stretched out from the house 1 occupied
toward the coast line, and seemed to al
most lose itself in the blue waters Of. the
big gulf Often the clouds Of that Sec
ton seemed to grow right out of the sea,
and waterspouts of the smaller kind are
by no means uncommon. AS will here
matter appear, these conditions will ex-
plain the phenomena I am about to de-
scribe. One day-it was along in the af-
iternoon, toward sunset-a sudden show err
came, and 1 heard a fearful tumbling and
fluttering around the house. 1t seemed
as If a cloud had fallen toward the earth
and had wrapped itself around the little
shanty 1 was occupying. AS soon as the
Gathering had ceased I ventured out into
the open. L never was more astonished
in my life than at the sight that met my
gaze. The ground was simply covered
with f1oundering black bass, and hurried
out with basket and picked up enough
fish for fine fish supper, and it was as
fine lot of fish as ever beheld. You
see. the spawn had been thrown out by
a waterspout, and the wind had blown
and shifted it about with the Clouds which
had lowered over that section, the tenn
perature had been favorable to the growth
