TRIED TO DO MINNIE. +"
Commissioners Mcconnell Tells of the
Doinqs at st. Louis.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
w. w. P. Mcconnell, state dairy and
food commissioner, who returned from
st. Louis yesterday, where Minnesota
got the highest score in the butter scor-
ing contest, says that some of the other
states formed combination to defeat
Minnesota and that had not the butter
of the North Star state been SO vastly
superior to the products of the states
in the pool, they might have been able
to count Minnesota out.
The combination worked this way.
says Mr.. Mcconnell: The states that
planned to edo up Minnesota" got to-
gether and adopted regulation that the
grand prize should go to the state which
had the highest percentage of tubs of
butter above 95. This rule worked to
the disadvantage of Minnesota, says Mr..
Mcconnell, because the North Star state
had sent large number of entries, near
ly twice as many as any other state.
Under this rule Minnesota, not having a
select lot of butter as the other states
had, might have the highest average and
still lose the prize, which was based on
the percentage of tubs over ninety five.
'sThis scheme might hive resulted in
the defeat of Minnesotshad not the but
ter of the NortA/star state been SO
vastly superior to the products of the
other statsst said ME- Mcconnell 'Min-
nesota simply showed the other states
under SO deep that they didn't know
where they were at. Three of our but
termakers got 9s1s, and not single
buttermaker of a single other state
scored as high as that. We beat the other
states on dairy butter, creamery butter,
print butter and fancy butter.
"This rule was adopted through a
pool of some of the other states. To
illustrate how it might have injuriously
affected Minnesota, Minnesota had about
I25 tubs of butter that scored from 81
to 90 and Iowa 20 tubs scoring just 95.
This would prove that Minnesota's lot
of butter was the best, but Iowa would
get the score, having larger percentage
of tubs over 95.
minnesota made vigorous protest
against this scheme. Some of the states
have agreed on new rule for the other
three tests, by which the grand prize
will go to the state getting the highest
average. We, believe that this rule is
much fairer than the other and hope that
it will be adopted" Pioneer Press.

COMMITTEE DOES WELL.
Ladies' Auxiliary Raises Four-fifths OF
Amount Needed.
From Wodnaada v,s TlaIIv

AOA- 'SSS~y . A@AJs
The committee of twelve of the Wom-
ans. Auxiliary of the Y. M. G. A. is
highly gratified with the generous re-
Spouse which it has met in its efforts to
raise money with which to furnish the
new Y. M. G. A. building. 1t set out
to raise $4,000, and has already sue
ceeded in raising $l,605. This sum has
been donated by four different lodges,
the Mankato Choral society and indi-
dividual women of this city. The COM
mittee has until Sept. lst in which to
raise the balance.
The lodges that have voted to donate
funds are the Elks, the Knights of Ply
thias, the Modern Woodmen of America
and the Eagles. Several other lodges have
the matter of making donations under
consideration and may take favorable
action.
The committee of twelve wishes to ex-
press its cordial thanks for itself and fol-
the entire organization to the different
organizations and individuals who have
made donations to the funds which il
has undertaken to raise. The response
has been generous, and the committee
hopes that when the building has beer
furnished, which will be about Oct. LIST
the people will have as much enjoyment
out of the building as those for whose
particular benefit it is being constructed
The committee will carry on its worl
during the summer until the full amoun
has been raised and collected.
