MARKET DAY PLAN WORKS
c. A. KUHL SAYS 1T is SUCCESS
IN WISCONSIN.
COULD BE SUCCESS IN NORFOLK
The Plan Of Having a Bargain Day
and Market Day In Town Once
Every SO often, is Working other
Plaees-Up to Commercial Club.

PIaees-Up to Commercial Club.
G.. A. Kuhl is authority for the
statement that the plan suggested in
these columns some weeks ago, for
the developing of bargain or market
day in Norfolk once a month, is now
being successfully worked, and has
been successfully worked for some
time, at Watertown, Wisconsin.
Watertown is a German community,
so that the same plan which would
work well there ought to work equally
well in Norfolk. The market day"
custom there was brought over to this
country from Germany by the early
settlers. On one day of each week
every Tuesday-there is market
day" On that day the German far
mers from miles around flock into the
city with every article of any des-
cription whatever, which they wish
to trade. One man will come twenty
five miles with an old buggy which he
another neighborhood will come in
prepared to trade something for a
buggy, Mr.. Kuhl says that the day
is a magnificent success and has been
for years. Hundreds of farmers come
to town every Tuesday for this oc-
casion.
And, to supplement the bargain day,
an annual three days fair is held
which is largely attended.
Il have seen this plan work in the
German settlement of Wisconsin,
said Mr.. Kuhl, land / know that 1t
would work in Norfolk 1t ought to
be given a trial by the Commercial
Club of Norfolk"

THEY DID PLAY THAT GAME.
NEIGH AND STANTON FINALLY
GOT TOGETHER.
WAS A BENEFIT FOR FosBERo

NclDn DeICdtSu otdNtOn ny OCOTC
Of Eight to Two on the oakdale
Diamond, in Spite Of Neigh's Pre-.
diotlons to the Contrary.
Oakdale, Sept, Especial to The
News. In spite of all contradictions
the game between Neigh and Stanton
was played here as announced. The
full Neigh team was present and
played as the Neigh team. The at
tendance was small because of the
persistent efforts on the part of Neigh
people to spread the report that no
game would be played The entire
gate receipts, which amounted to
$1,000, were given to Carl Fosberg the
Neigh player who had his leg broken
at Albion on July 4. The Stanton boys
came up minus a couple of players,
but under this handicap put up a
good game.
The Neigh boys played their usual
strong game and won by score Of
s to 2. The summary of the game
Is as follows
Neigh .........2 0 A 0 2 90 Ks
Stanton ....1 0 0 / 0 0 0 0 %
Batteries: Neigh, Alstott and AL
berts; Stanton, Mayer and Hopper.
Struck out: by Alstott 16; by Mayer
A. Bases on balls: off Alstott 4; off
Mayer 2. Hits, Neigh 3, Stanton 3.
The expenses of the game were paid
by Oakdale business men and they
only regret that the attendance was
not larger so that the amount pre-
scented to Mr. Fosberg might have
been more substantial.
Neigh, Neb., Sept. 15.-The game
came off after all sore spots and mis-
understandings between the manager,
DR.. Conwell, of the Neigh team and
outside parties, had been healed up.
That Neigh will have couple of
fast games of ball is now an assured
fact. Manager Conwell has secured
the promise and accepted the terms
of the Fremont team who will play
in this city on Monday and Tuesday
September "a and %. Both games
will be played at Riverside ball park
and the home team will try conclus
ions with the fast Fremont aggrega
ton

Wild Animals.

Farmers every day are telling of
the increasing number of wolves and
wild animals that are to be seen
around the country of late. Only this
morning a coon was seen not far from
the Rome Miller barn at the Junction.
This undoubtedly accounts for the
losing of so many chickens lately in
that neighborhood.

Orceon's Dairy Business.

The annual report recently COM
pletsd by State Dairy and Food Com
missioner Bailey for the past year
gives some interesting facts and fig
ures relative to the dairy industry in
Oregon, says the Rural Spirit. The
total product of Oregon's cows in 1906
is estimated at s28,OOO,OOo in round
numbers, and Mr.. Bailey estimates
that the output of 1906 will exceed
that amount by at least 40 per cent
These figures are quite encouraging
especially when taken in connection
With the statement made by Prof
G. l.. Mckay. by which it would seen
that there is little danger of overdo,
ing the business.
