Farmers Cooperative Creamery
at Lake City Has Made
Great Progress
SOME CHANGES CONTEMPLATED
Believe That the Quality Of Butter Can
Be Improved by Paying According to
Quality of Cream - Prizes May Bo
Offered for Best Butter During
Specified Time.
Special to Tines Republican.


Lake City, Dec. 15.--At the annual
meeting of the directors of the Farm
ers' Cooperative creamery here the
coming month the question OF intro
ducing newer and more up o-date
used by the larger creameries Will no
doubt come before the meeting. Such
societies in other parts of the state
show deep interest in the discussion
of the question. One of the things
which will be discussed will be the
system of merit. This will be the plac-
ing of each patrons product on level
by giving those who bring poor quail
ty of cream a less advantage over the
farmer whose cream has larger per
cent Of butter fat. Make payments
according to the receipts from the diff
ferent patches Of butter" said one Of
the directors, land In time you Will
have all your cream patrons eager to
bring in good sweet butter making ma
terial. Offer prize for the best but
ter during a specified time and try to
make your product the best possible In
the territory" Better breeding In this
part of the state has resulted In the
increase in good dairy herds and also
better cream products. The creamery
at this place has steadily risen among
the larger concerns Of the state and
this year has produced an enormous
amount of butter all Of which has been
shipped to New York markets. Farm
ers have fallen into the methods advo-
Gated by the farm theorists and as u
result the rotation of crops has given
them the best advantage in the COM
petition of their neighbors. The large
profit received from the result OF
dairying has given stimulus to the bus
mess and the county is rapidly reach
ing out and growing in that line until
in only few years it will stand where
Fayette, Polk, Lee and other counties
in the state are today. The co-opera-
tive concern at this place, under the
of G. ]. Jewell, has been
a great success, paying a handsome
dividend to all investors for three
years.

Special to Times-Republican.
Jefferson, Dec. 15.-The Hotel JEFF
ferson, which has been closed for some
time, is to be reopened. The owner,
Mr.. j. A. fictitious, of st. Paul, was
down this week looking the property
over. He determined to overhaul it
and put it in good condition for re-
opening and to offer it at a reasonable
rent AS there is at this time only
one hotel in Jefferson it ought to be
a good proposition.
The introduction of water meters in
furnishing city water to consumers,
which was completed last October is
proving a decided advantage to the
city. The hours Of pumping have been
reduced one-l1alf, the need of extra
help has been eliminated, and the
consumption of fuel proportionally re-
duced.

Before leaving the city yesterday, he
said: "The law enacted at the last
session has stood the test of the SUI

satisfaction. In some few instances
possibly it can be bettered, but there
will be hesitation about going into the
matter at this session as a good law
needs to be protected after 1t Is on the

much as to be enacted in the first

changes that might be made to better
the law, and may introduce some
amendments. The law is an important
enc in our section OF the state"

The Right Sort of Rest.

1t is rest first, and after that all else
that He holds for us. Our rest should
be like our Sabbath, beginning of the
days. Under the law the order was,
work at the first, and day after day I'M
til the seventh, when labor shall end
In rest. But when Christ rose from
the dead: that first day Of the week be-
came the hallowed one, consecrated to
life and rest and Joy. And from that
living, joyful rest in Him, the whole
being energized and fitted for it's task,
the soul can go on TO serve Him to the
end. 1t has found its rest because it
has ceased from working In its own
strength, ceased from it's own will, and
now God worketh in it to Ill and to
do of His own good pleasure. Practi-
oally, it makes the widest possible diff
ference whether we work up to rest or
from it.-Sarah F. Smiley.

ON AND OFF GUARD.
A False Condition Of Mind ard Heart
Which Is Destructive Of. :.
- the True Man.

Atrue man is never on his guard. He
is: never watching himself lest he. say
unwise words or DO ungentlemanly
things. He has neither home manne}s,
nor street manners, nor company man.
ners. He has no pulpit tone, social tone,
nor business tone. When a man feels
that he must be on his guard, in view Of
the company in which he happens to be.
it is an indication of hypocrisy, all the
worse If it is unconscious. The true
gentleman is gentleman all the time
asleep or awake Some time ago prom
inent lecturer was telling of dream he
had, in the course of which came test
as to whether he would be true to his
word, even though it was at great cost
to himself. II made right decision"
he said, land on waking l was so glad
to discover that did not play the dog
in my dream" He was unconsciously
right-through and through. The man
who can trust himself in his dreams is
likely to be trusted in his waking hours.

life that We reveal our true selves. Il

hurried response of his friend. There
was moments awkward pause, deep
blush, and one man reached over the
desk to another and said: 81 want to-
thank you for your 1ebuke; it is just:
shall never tell such stories anywhere"
In conversation with friend recently,
the writer was saying that he was sorry
certain man talked as he did. "That
isn't it" said the other; "he wouldn't
talk that way if he did not think that
way; he should not think that way, then
he would never have trouble with his
speech" All Of which is true: it is the
unconscious Christian that is likely to
be the best Christian; when one must
take pains to express his character it is
an indication that there is something
wanting under the surface.-Service.
