About Creaneries.

~ q tetU GStbi Is UeiHS Sdlu Wy
the press OF the state urging the
farmers and business men to
build creameries. Some OF the
newspapers advocate the central
creamery plan, for instance, to
build a large creamery at some
central point and ship the cream
for an hundred miles or
more 81. ron ding, such point,
such creaniariss to be owned BY.
individuals ratha. than by CO.
operative companies.
Upon inquiry we learn there
are $50 licensed creameries and
10 cheese factories in South Da-
kata, and q l;Fege majority oil
them are operated on the CO.
operative plan, and which has
given great deal better salts
faction than the individual own
ership plan.
There are many advantagasto
be derived by the farmers under
either plan, and the Independent
would be glad to see II move
ment started to build q cream
ery in Minot in the near future.
The conditions in this yicintyare
particularly Favorable to such
an enterprise, and the experience
OF such Institutions in other
states, rs we'll as IN some parts
Of our oE.I, ought to be sufficient
inducement forsthe business men
OF Minct to take hold OF the pro-
iect.
Gov. Van SAINT OF Minnesota,
deems the creamery and dairy
interests ofthe state to be ofsuffi-
cient Importance to make this
reference to the industry in his
annual message to the legisla,-
ture
Everyone of the 100 creameries and
100 cheese factories have been Inspected
once and many of them twice during the
biennial Isriod, and the excellence Of
the dairy products is in a large measure
due to the efforts of the department in
assisting creamery officers and patrons to
better methods and especially to the
Inspector; ard management of the state
educational butter and cheese contests,
conducted me1t1iy ftofn April l, 1901, to
May 1, 1902.
Minnesota butter commands a pre-
MUM in the eastern market of cent a
pound, which upon the output OF 55,OUO,-
800 pounds means a net gain for quail
ity alone Of S550OCO This being true,
how earnest should be our efforts to dot
everyone Of Minnesota's eightyfour coun-
ties with creameries, especially in the
twentytcna in which none are now IN
operation No better or more promising
dairy field is now open to the energetic
husbandman than in northern Mime
sofa, which with its healthful climate,
pure water and luxuriant grasses awaits
their coming.
Great credit too, is due this depart
ment, for it not only advances the dairy
interests, but gives encouragement to
diversified farming, which is SO essential
to our future prosperity.
Food inspections have been equally
meritorious and the results commend
able. Approximately 10000 food sam
pies have been analysed by the depart
ment chemists. These samples have
been gathered from every city, town and
hamlet in the state by the corps of in
spectors. and whatever the result Of any
analysis has demonstrated the illegality
Of any article, prompt and vigorous
means have been taken to drive them
from the market. Thus the people Of
the state are sure that the food they con-
sumo is free from impurities Or injurious
ingredients and the public health there
by protected.

At last the st. Louis papers
are telling the truth about Jas.
l.. Blair. He started in life
with an honored name and a
fair share of this worlds goods.
He earned salary enough to sat
isfy even an ordinarily eXpen
sive taste But his wife was
d mbitious. She must excel at
w hatever cost. And so their
country home was furnished
like a palace and princeiy
revenue was expended in run
ming it. Not that this lavish
expenditure enabled them TO
live more comfortably or more
happily. But it did enable Mrs.
Blair to outshine her neighbors.
Mrs. Blair wore costly gems and
Paris-made gowns, and the
money which paid for them was
stolen. Jim Blair was not a
common thief. But neither is
the man far below him in the
social scale who turns burglar
to get money to lavish on his
mistress. Both do what they
do for the love of a woman.
Had Mrs. Blair been a different
woman, had she lavished half
the care and attention on her
husband and family that she
gave society this would never
have happened. And yet the
st. Louis papers tell us that all
the world sympathizes with
Mrs. Blair.-Palmyra Herald.

Is it not a little strange that
the speech of Joseph w. Folk at

the name of a single living dem

Folk believes there is no demo

of mention by him? How does
Mr.. Folk expect to receive the

he will not allow their names to

THE COMFORT JOHN D. FINDS
IN RELIGION.

Early in October John d.
Rockefeller preached one OF his
characteristic two minute serm-
ons at Cleveland. O. 1t was an
experience meeting and the
parent of the octopus said:
1.-The personal comfort that
religion has been to me has been.
such that sometimes | fee! that
/ would like to go on tue plat
form and tell the people about
it."
If there is any human being in
this wide wm Id who needs the
comforts of religion more than
this one man, lie has not been
discovered. Today he is the
same crafty, foX-iike, shrewd
schemer he was in the days
when he unblushlngly secured
rebates from the railroads on
all his oil shipments and por
tion of the freight paid by his
competitors, although it was
wrong, illegal, criminal, and
he knew it.
He works the Jeyl-Hyde DusI-
ness to finish. Viewed from
one standpoint he is a benevo-
lent, Scripture Spouting, much
malIgued and absolutely mis-
understood man, entitled to
sympathy and respect. In bus
mess he is as cold as ice. There
is history to prove it. He has
never hesitated to ruin a com.
petitor, even if that ruin carried
with it not only blasting of hope
but deliberate transgression of
the law, When John d. Rookie
Teller runs over a man tunera |
has often followed.
Last week MIR RoCkefeller's
company put up the price of oil
half a cent on the gallon. A
little later a full cent was add
ed to the retail price of each
gallon. Another raise has just
been made, making an increase
in two weeks of two and one
half cents per gallon on the
poor man's light.
Mr.. Rockeieller's share Of the
new extortion will mount up in
to the millions of dollars.
There is no scarcity, no i'm
mediate danger CT the supply
falling short. He does not need
the money; has no logical reas-
on for putting the screws on
the people.
But the evenings are long,
lights are much used in the cot
tage homes, and the chance for
loot was there.
Did Mr.. Rockefeller ever hes
itate at anything when there
was money in sight?
He doesn't need to go on the
platform. His work speaks for
him. Louis Chronicle.

Written Protest,

The Columbia State says: "Gov.
Odell's moro active participation in
the politics OF Now York city. has re-
suited in tho selection of one Charles
II. Murray as president of the Repub-
lican county committee. Murray is
the kind Of politician that one Thco-
dore Roosevelt would not have stood
for when Roosevelt was political re-
former in this same New York city
the New York papers say Murray rep
resents the lowest type of Republican
leader" in the metropolis. The quail
ity Of his gray matter is revealed by
the story that when he was aqueduct
commissioner In 1893 he proposed to
station 400 or 500 guards along the
aqueduct to prevent the Spaniards
from poisoning New York's water sup
ply. AS this was a good scheme to
give jobs to 400 or 500 heelers, some
of Murray's party colleagues supported
it but Mayor Van Wyck didn't SEQ it
that way and removed Murray from
which, perhaps, was about MS
good a thing as Mayor Van Wyck ever
did. Murray is now the leader of the
celebrated "de Ate' district, though
he does not live therein.n
