Declares Act Unconstitutional.

The act passed by the last legisla-
ture OF the state, creating in certain
counties the Offices of county superin-
tendent of highways and town road
inspectors, was declared unconstitu-
tional by Judge Homer B. Dibbell in
decision handed down in the district
court at Duluth last week. The court
holds that the act is special legisla-
ton and for that reason is unconstitu-
tiOnal. .....
The decision is given on the demur-
rer OF the defense to the injunctional
suit brought against the county com
missioners by Anton J. Helm of the
town of Normanna. He seeks to have
the county board enjoined from ap.

pointing superintendent of highways
and in accordance with his findings on
the demurrer the court issues the
temporary injunction upon the fling
of suitable bond by the plaintiff.
In the complaint it is alleged that
the act is unconstitutional on the face
of it, being special legislation, and
that the expense of paying the super
intendent would be financial loss to
the county as would likewise be that
of paying the town inspectors to be
appointed by the town boards. The
suit was started about the time the
county board was to meet in June and
was to prevent the appointment of
superintendent at that time, resolu-
tion having already been prepared.
The act in question is chapter 1853 of
the laws of 1907 and in the title it is
stated that it is an act to provide for
the appointment of these officers in
counties having less than 10000
population. In the body of the act
itself there is no mention made of the
population of the counties in which
the appointment shall be made. In
this discrepancy was found chance
for argument.
In the demurrer it was claimed there
was no cause of action. It was
argued by the defense that probably
the legislature changed the act and
neglected to change the title and any
way only the body should be con-
sidered. Judge Dibell says that the
wording of the title of the act should
not be rejected on the ground that it is
no part of the act or. that it should be
| overlooked upon guess that possibly
while the act was in it's passage the
legislature changed the body without
| changing the title. The court says it
might be that the legislature changed
the title and then neglected to change
the body of the act
BE concludes that either the title
and the body should be read together
and the act held to apply only to
counties of less than 100000 or the
title should be held to be restrictive
and the act held to be effective only as
to counties Of less than 100000.
In either case, says the court, this
would be special legislation and would
make the law unconstitutional. Judge
Dibell says there is one other ques-
ton and that is whether the subject
of the act is expressed within the title
| within the constitutional requirement,
but that under his findings otherwise
it is unnecessary to go into that phase
of the matter.

for an outing.

Mrs. Bertha Thompson had a bean

and about thirty ladies were present.
AS there were no men in attendance to
detract their attention they accom-
plished big days work.

with seven head of cattle and, strange
to say, not one of the drove was in

Will Swanbro was on the shore with a

was sent for and the cattle taken out
without loss or injury.
A surprise party of young folks of
Spencer Brook and Bradford gathered
at the home of Miss Ina McKenney
last Friday evening and had a very

spent in social chat and playing

we're served and at midnight the merry
party departed for their respective
homes, having had royal good time
as all do who visit the home of Mr..
and Mrs. McKenney.

Butter Experts at Work.

The dairy bureau of the federal de-
partment of agriculture has opened an
experiment station at Albert Lea and
is carrying on a work which will not
! only be of interest to dairymen
throughout the northwest, but to the
consumers of butter as we'll. It is AN
experiment to determine the keeping
qualities of butter in cold storage
and why it cannot be so kept for six
months without deteriorating in it's
table qualities.
Experts in buttermaking believe this
difficulty can be overcome, but as yet
they have been unable to accomplish
it. The work of the station is to solve
that problem. 1t is in charge of Pro-
lessor G. E. Gray of the dairy divi-
sion at Washington, and is being car
ried on in most scientific mnaner at
the Albert Lea creamery, where a
building has been erected for labora-
tory purposes and the government has
installed over 50, 900 worth of machin-
cry.
No effort is made in the selection
of cream, but it is taken from that re-
ceived by the Albert Lea creamery. It
is first pasteurized and then carefully
cooled to the desired. temperature.
This cream is churned at different
periods in the ripening process, the
desire being to ascertain what effect
this may have upon the keeping quail
ties OF the butter, from the almost
sweet cream to the point of the great
est degree of acidity. These condi-
tions are carefully recorded.
Samples of each churning are taken
to the laboratory in connection with
the station and analysed. The tubs of
butter are sent to Chicago to be held
in cold storage for six months, when
they will be taken out and sent to
Washington and scored and samples
therefrom again analysed.
This will be kept up throughout the
season, so the effect of the different
months and change of feed Herewith
may be noted. It is thought the vari-
Gus analyses will reveal information
which will assist in determining the
keeping qualities of the butter, and so
enable the creamery man to follow a
line of procedure which will result in
a quality of butter that will come out
of cold storage in good, marketable
shape.
The station is also experimenting in
the manufacture of Swiss cheese and
hopes to be able to produce cheese
that will prove satisfactory to the con-
sumer. The difficulty in this country
has been to make Swiss cheese in
warm weather that will keep market
able for any length of time, on &C.
count of the presence of certain kind
of bacteria in the milk during the
warm season. It is hoped that the
knowledge here gained will assist in
overcoming this difficulty.
Professor Gray has five assistants in
the work. It is the intention to keep
the station open throughout the year,
but the full force will not be retained
during the winter.

THE COOPERATIVE CREAMERY.
The Home Institution Which the Farmer
Should at All Times Patronize.

The Home Institution Which the Farmer
Should at All Times Patronize.
A farmer who evidently knows
whereof he speaks publishes in the
Osakis Review the following common
sense article:
The patriotic and progressive
farmer will stand by his home cream
cry, where he always gets honest tests,
honest weights and honest prices. The
progressive farmer is loyal to home
creameries and home industries.
The writer has seen places where the
home creamery was closed and the re-
suit was that every farmer had to ship
his cream, and many time was salts
fed to even get his cans back.
Why should the farmer patronize the
trust creameries when he can take his
cream to frst-class home creamery:
Can you give any reason?
You have a creamery here in Osakis
that is a credit to the country and the
town. Good home creameries are
what make land values. When pros
pective land buyers come to a town
and find a home creamery keeping
three or four men busy making butter
every minute of the day he will say to
himself, "This looks like business
and must be rich country, and I am
not afraid to invest my money in a
locality that can support home fac
tory of this character - The result is
that land will go up.
On the other hand when a land
buyer comes to a town where the
creamery has gone to ruin he will
say, II guess won't stop here: they
can't even support home creamery. ,!
Such a condition doesn't look very
inviting to the stranger, now does it:
SO he boards the train and bids you
goodbye. Mr.. Farmer, open your
eyes and patroniZe the home creamery
Work for it, talk for it. Fill it ur
