There are four cream stations in
the town and all are doing a good
business and the growth OF. the busi-
ness can be best explained by TAX
ing the sales Of one of these stations.
Two years ago the best month wit

To Build Gre amery and Manufacture
| Butter
The milling company is building
creamery and will furnish the plant
with power, heat and water from the
main milling plant, which can be
done at a very slight increase of ex-

butter maker and go into the butter
making business in a proper way.
The country is showing many sur

ducts and especially in the way Of
tame grasses and clovers. The
growing of these has not vet been
sufficiently tried to know just what
the exact yield will be, but enough

The Early Settler
| AS in all new countries, the pion-
eer had to struggle for an existence,
SO the same experiences were the rule

"A few of the first settlers were
Americans from the eastern states,
but the majority from the old coun-
tries and ittas estimated that of the
population now at least ninety per
cent is German Russian and some
| claim that it is even higher than
| ninety. Be that as 1t may, there is
not a more industrious, w-abiding,
! nor prosperous people to be found

And while: it is. true that many of
these people cannot speak the Eng
lish language, nor do they think
upon all questions as those who Go
4 speak the language may, they pay
their debts and improve the country
and are trying to teach their children
lessons of honesty and industry and
to become good citizens Of the coun-
TRY of their adoption. And 1T is all
"a mistake to think that in time these
people will not speak English, take
on American ways, and, in some re
spects, will make the American youth
4 hustle to maintain his laurels in
many ways and especially on the
farm or in, the store. And where a
people will flee from oppression, as
these people have done, and come to
a new country with not a dollar in
their possession and in a lew years
