DAIRYMfN'S DAY
Big Creamery Meeting to Be Held
in Sank Centre on WedneS-
day, July 10

There is to be big dairymen's
rally in Sank Centre next Wednesday,
July 10, given under the auspices of
the Sank Lake Creamery Association.
Elaborate preparations have been
made for this event and there is every
promise that it will be huge success.
The city park at the foot of Sank
Lake is to be the scene of this grand
gathering of men interested in dairy
ing
An attractive program has been
provided for the day. Addresses
will be delivered by Congressman G..
A. Lindbergh of Little Falls, Hon.
Frank Nj. Eddy of Sank Centre and
Inspector John E. Lindberg of the
State Dairy and Food Department.
Inspector Lindberg is we'll qualified
to interest and instruct the farmers
in matters pertaining to dairying.
While the congressman and the
former congressman may not be
especially long On dairying, yet they
can both entertain crowd to the
queens taste and what they say will
be we'll worth listening to.
The band will furnish music dur
ing the day, which means that what
this aggregation does will be worth
hearing. Free coffee and buttermilk
will be served in the park.
The management offers two prizes
for the day. The first prize OF ten
dollars will be given to the farmer
who can show the greatest number OF
pounds of butter fat delivered to the
creamery at Sank Centre for the
month of June 1907.
A prize of five dollars is hung up
for the farmer with the largest family
presented in a group &C the grand
stand. This is called a special Teddy
Roosevelt prize and should interest
all who are doing what they can to
prevent race suicide.
All farmers are invited to come and
enjoy the day. A fine time will
eventuate and no one will regret
having taken the time to come.

This town never saw SO many
gentlemen in correct evening dress as

the Gentlemen's Receptions that w.

This query comes to this office;
..Why do so many young men 60 to

their own way, yet are willing to call
on the girls when it costs nothingp
Give it up-too deep for us.

He is one Of the REFLECTOR readers

u. and 3. Dymaeck have sold
their 100 acre farm, the old Matteson
place, near Manchester to Mr.. Koel-

purchased this place about five years
ago for IS, 2OO and expect to buy an
other one near Abilene.
Topeka seems scared. The State
Journal says: Senator Brewer pro-
poses to move the boys industrial
school from Topeka 10 Abilene. This
isn't the first time Abilene has tried
to gst state institution away from
Topeka. A few years ago it tried to
pick up the state capitol and move 1t
up there, but it stubbed its toe and
fell down.

most enjoyable time.
The committee appointed BY the
CITY council to confer with Col. Parker
regarding the matter Of hre exits,
visited the rink yesterday at the So
licitation OF Col. Parker and after
making a few minor suggestions,

ates, are to have the lower door open
outward ard put in large double doors
with an easy stairway on the west

TUESDAY, AUGUST ID, 1907

By JUST the legal vote the Board of
Freeholders on Tuesday decided to issue
bonds in the sum of $55, 900 to enable the
county to complete contracts that had al
ready been made. This seems to have
been necessary as there did not appear to
be rescinded. but 1t would have been g
much better plan to have considered the
financial situation before agreeing to incur
debt that required strenuous measures
to pay. The members Of the Board of
Freeholders should have been posted In
the law and considered the possibilities
before going blindly into running up
debt of over $1,000. There were few
arguments In favor of the issuing Of
bonds. One of them was that future
generations might as well bear a part of
the burden and pay for the improvements
that they will enjoy. II the roads are
not kept in better shape than they now
are there will not be much enjoyment; on
the other hand the future generations"
will have more than they want In paying
the expense of keeping the present road
ways in good condition, the annual cost of
which now reaches about $780, 600 In his
report State Road Commissioner Hutchin-
son says: Burlington county has just
finished two very fine roads. Another,
known as the Red Lion and Tabernacle, is
said to be finished. but. In my Judgment,
is very far from It, This county has
It's. so miles of improved roads, and spent
last year for repairing the same $25. 651. "a,
but ! am sorry to say that their condition
Is far from what it should be. 1t is i'm
possible to keep stone roads In good repair
by spreading dirt instead of stone over
their surface. Speaking of Camden
county the Commissioner says that "qual-
ity and not quantity is the motto there, !"
and that the $25, 900 expended for repairs
has produced the best of results. So 1t
will be seen that, according to the State
Commissioner. Burlington county has
been throwing money away and our roads
are not In the shape they should be. Any
one who drives over them much will not
have any trouble In discovering that fact
for themselves. At the meeting on Tues
day notice was served that no more new
roads would be contracted for this year or
next. That was very sensible conclu-
sion to reach, and while the building is
being held up it would not be a bad idea
to pay more attention to the highways
we now have, SO that future generations"
will get something for the money they
are to be called onto pay.
