MINNESOTA NEWS.
Hurrah for Our Butter.

Minnesota has captured everything
in sight in the first butter scoring at
the worlds fair.
Butter men say her record in this
event is phenomenal, and compliments
are being showered on the Bread and
Butter State for the great showing
made, and state representatives there
are just touching the high places as
they blushingly receive the compli-
mentS.
Minnesota wins first and second place
for creamery butter as follows:
NJ. Sondergard, Hutchinson, w. +.
Stahman, Loretta, and L. Larson, Dar-
win, each 9s1l points; L. B. Anderson,
of Albert Lea, and H. H. Jenson,
Clark's Grove, each 9s4 points.
Print Butter: Mrs j. C. Joslin, Of
Winstead, first place with 977a points.
Dairy butter: Mrs. l.. M. Holmes, OF
Owatonna, first place, with 96h points.
Thirty five other Minnesota entries
scored 90 points or better, which places
them in gold medal claim, and over
eighty scored for silver medal. The
judges were:
Oscar Douglas of Boston, John Mid
dlestead of Chicago and b. p. White OF
New York, who, without knowing
whence the butter came, pronounced it
the finest lot they had ever tested; it
being the highest average ever attain
ed by any state in such contest.
They agreed that such results could
only be attained by excellent pure food
laws carefully enforced, and praised
the state dairy and food commission
and the commission for the many en-
tries and care shown in making exhi-
bit.
That three men from one state
should come within a quarter of a
point of the record score for the United
States is considered remarkable, and is
the topic of conversation among dairy
interests.
Wisconsin took third place for cream
ery butter, with a score Of ninety-sev-
en-.
North Dakota had nineteen entries
in the creamery class. Miller of Ell
lendale, Knowlan of Wishek, Suther-
land of aemple and Miller of Forman
being highest, with 9314 points each.
The balance were between that and s6,
the judges knocking all samples on ac-
count of wild onion flavor, otherwise
the points were high.

State Fair Races.

Nominations for the Minnesota State
Fair races must be placed with Secre-
tary E. w. Randall, Hamline, Mimi,
very shortly, as the entries positively
close at l / p. M, July l. Last years
records on the Minnesota track, as well
as the very large number of entries
and the enormous attendance at the
fair, have added to the reputation of
this annual meet, and horsemen every
where are now talking of the proba-
bilities for the meet of this year, which
opens on August 90. Interest has been
heightened by the increase in the
amount of money offered by the state
fair management. The purses have
always been liberal, there having been
for a number of years past none less
than 81 900 for harness horses, but this
year the management has added 1000
to tho total, which now reaches the
handsome sum of $25, 900.
