COOPERATIVE CREAMERIES

In the wealthy dairy counties OF
Wisconsin, land cannot be bought for
less than 800 per acre, while formerly,
when wheat was the main crop, it was
difficult to get a buyer at $50 an acre.
What has made this great change in
ten years? 1t is the building up and
united support by all dairymen OF the
farmers co-operatice creameries which
pay to the farmers the whole profit
from the manufacture OF butter. OF
course it is necessary that more COWS
be kept and that is what the farmers
creamery here is urging upon the
farmers of this vicinity and wanting
their entire cream and milk product,
as they operate upon the plan the
larger cream receipts the higher they
will pay. The new patrons are in
creasing from to IL month to the
farmers creamery but they still want
work. They only ask a drial to salts
fly you.

II How often Is the expression
heard. Frequently, following a
mighty smash that proves the turn

some | gives vent to the words:
ut was the greatest hit in base
ball"

and probably will be said as often
in the future as it has been in the
past.
All of which brings up the ques-
ton, What was the greatest hit in
base ball, and who made 1t?
However, 1t may be said without
fear of contradiction, that / of the
greatest hits in the games history
was made by Mike Herman. right

earned the title of Giants" which
Johnny McGraw's outfit inherited.
Thousands believe the hit Is with
out peer, everything considered.
And ii was great! Not because it
was the longest hit ever made, but
because 1t came at the end of
long-drawn-out battle, of which the
pitchers were in control; at the
psychological moment when every
spectator was nerved to the highest
tension; and it won the game.
1t was Monday. May II. 1890. that
.Tiernan made history. The Giants
and Boston were playing at the old
Polo grounds, and Amos Rusie and
Nichols were pitching.
For 9 innings the spectators sat
spellbound by the playing. The
