Page. There ought to be a postofice
there as it would accommodate a
large number of people.

Fire at Bradford.

About IL O'Clock last Friday even
ing Jay Smiths general merchandise
store in Bradford, Isanti county, was
completely destroyed by fire. There
was no salvage. Mr.. Smith and his
family lived over the store and we're
obliged to make d hasty exit. The
fire, it was thought, was caused by a
defect in the chimney. Mr.. Smith car
ried big stock for a country store
and it was valued at 81, 500. There
was an insurance of $4,000 on the
stock, most of which was carried bv
companies represented by Guy Ewing
of this place. The building was val
ued at 81, 500 and carried 81 900 insur-
ance. Mr.. Smith was doing a profit
able business and he contemplates re-
building as soon as necessary ar
rangements can be made.

An Estlmable Old Lady of This Village
Passed Away at Her Home on
Wednesday Afternoon.
Funeral Services Will Be Held at the
Residence Tomorrow After
noon at Two O'Clock.

Mrs. Rachel Hill died at her resi-
dence in this village at O'Clock on
Wednesday afternoon at the age of -
years. She had been in i'll health for
several years, but not until three
weeks ago was she compelled to take
to her bed. The immediate cause of
Mrs. Hills death was Bright's disease.

the interment Will take place in Oak
Knoll cemetery.
Mrs. Hills maiden name was
Rachel Ellis and she was born in

OF age she moved with her parents to
Ionia, Michigan, and on May 2e, 1857,
she was married to Esau J. Whitney
at Grand Rapids, Mich. With her
husband she came to Minnesota and
located in Princeton in October, 1859,

Fair Officers Elected.

At meeting of the Mile Laos Fair
association held in M. S. Rutherford
& Co. s office last Friday evening the
following officers were elected for the
ensuing year: W. Il. Terrell, presi-
dent: c. A. Jack, vice president: Ira
G. Stanley, secretary; L. S. Briggs,
treasurer; directors, E. K. Evens,
E. B. Anderson and T. L. Armitage.
1t is useless to attempt to hold
another fair unless the grounds are
fixed up and inducements offered the
farmers to exhibit their products and
take an interest in the affairs of the
association. Princeton is so situated
that it ought to have one of the best
and most successful fairs in the state.
The Union proposes to make one
last effort to revive interest in the fair
after the cooperative creamery prof.
ect gets under way.

Another Co-Operatiye Creamerv

Farmers in the vicinity of Foreston
propose to erect a modern creamery
at that place this spring. Already the
ice has been put up, and work will be
commenced on the building as soon
as the frost is out of the ground.
The building will be of brick and the
machinery will be of the latest and
most improved pattern. In fact it will
be an up-to-date creamery and will be
built, owned and operated by the
farmers. The farmers creameries at
Milaca and on the West Branch are
being successfully conducted and
there is no reason why a cooperative
creamery at Foreston would not sue.

continue to multiply and prosper in

PROVING A SUCCESS
Evangelists Smith and Roper Draw
Large Audiences to Their Ser.
vices at Opera House.
Chorus of Sixty Voices Under r. II.
Roper an Attractive Feature
of Revival r1eetings.

On Sunday morning, at Brands
opera house. the first of the series OF
evangelistic services was held and the
good work is being continued every
evening. A large audience gathers
upon each occasion and those who
attend are we'll repaid, for the gentle
men conducting the revivals are GER
tainly worth listening to.
Charles Cullen Smith is not only
an eloquent speaker, but his exhorta-
tions are of that commonsense nature
which appeal forcibly to mortal sin
ners. We're his advice followed this
would be altogether different world
"a better world in every respect.
Mr.. Smith is different from the aver
age evangelist in that he does not
denounce and berate people for their
wickedness. His mission is to point
out to his listeners the error of their
ways and to give them such advice as
may induce them to turn therefrom and
live better lives.
One of the features of the revival
which is particularly attractive is the
singing. A chorus of about sixty
voices is led by r. Fl. Roper, Mr..
Smiths associate, and in addition
this gentleman renders vocal solos at
each service in an excellent manner.
Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Roper also sing
duets during the progress of the re.
vivals. Mrs. Benz. Soule is the &C.
companist.
These revival meetings will be held
every evening until April IL, so that
not only the residents of Princeton
but people from the country will have
an opportunity of attending.

Court Decisions,

Judge Myron D. Taylor has just
handed down his decision in two cases
of local import, one being that of
Rines VS.. Terrell and the other
Leathers VS.. Mark.
The first was a suit brought by
Mary Rines, as eXecutrix of the last
will and testament of Chas. 81. Rines,
deceased, to enforce an accounting
against w. II. Terrell upon warehouse
appurtenances, railroad claims, etc.
The case came on for trial at the
October, 1907, term of the district
court, when the plaintiff was repre-
sented by Harris Richardson and the
defendant by E. L. Mcmillan. Said
cause was held under consideration to
permit counsel to file briefs, if so ad-
vised, and no such briefs having been
fled within reasonable time.
together with the pleadings, files and
records, and the proceedings had upon
said trial, the judge makes the follow
ing findings of fact:
That save as admitted by the answer
of defendant herein, the allegations OF
the plaintiffs complaint are not true
and that all of the defendants answers
herein are true.
From the foregoing findings of fact
the court makes and finds the follow
ing conclusions of law:
That said defendant is entitled to
the order, judgment and decree of the
court herein that plaintiff takes
nothing by this action, and that defen-
dant have and recover of said plaintiff
his costs and disbursements to be duly
taxed and allowed herein.
A stay of forty days was granted.

This was a ruling upon a motion
argued in chambers in which the
defendant sought an. order to vacate
and set aside writ of attachment on

A ROUSINC MEETING
Farmers of Estes Brook and Surround
ing Country Attend the Insti-
tute in Large Number.
Practical Men Expatiate Upon Meth
DDS of Raising Crops and Car
ing for Live Stock.

There was a very good attendance
at the farmers institute at Estes
Brook on Saturday and much inter.
est was manifested in the proceedings.
Farmers, some accompanied by their
wives and daughters, from all points
of the compass were there and all
seemed to be we'll pleased with the
results.
All subjects taken up we're lucidly
placed before the meeting-each
speaker was we'll versed in the branch
he handled. Forest Henry, the in
stitute conductor, gave very able
discourse on potatoes, clover and
small fruits, and told how to cultivate
each so as to obtain good yields
yields that would pay. He spoke
particularly on soil preparation for
these crops and the advantages
gained by rotating potatoes and
clover.
The raising of sheep and hogs, the
fertility of soil and the selection OF
seeds were the subjects discoursed
upon by O. M. Olson, and it was evil
dent from the way in which he de-
scribed these branches of farming that
he is man of practical experience.
Dairying was the branch expounded
by Chas. Nelson. Mr.. Nelson is a
very successful farmer and has made
dairying special feature of his stud
les, so that he is fully capable OF
speaking upon this subject from the
viewpoint of one who knows. His
talk was filed with good sound point
ers on the selection, feeding and care
of the dairy COW.
The question box was a feature Of
more than ordinary interest, some
of the interrogatories being particu-
larly complex, but the experts we're
equal to the occasion and explained
everything asked in a detailed and
satisfactory manner.
Every person in attendance received
a copy of the Institute Annual and
when the meeting disbanded all felt
that the day had been we'll and profit.

PROPOSED
Public rleeting Called to Discuss the
Building of a Cooperative
Creamery in Princeton.
Business Men of the Village Will Ex-
tend Substantial Financial AS.
O. slstance to Farmers.

D1dAuS Opefd mousse, Tr1QCeLOn, on
April 4, to discuss ways and means
for the erection of large, modern
cooperative creamery in this village
to be exclusively owned and operated
by the farmers themselves. The mat
ter has been thoroughly canvassed by
the Commercial club and assurances
of substantial financial aid from the
business men of the village have
already been received. There is no
reason why a cooperative creamery
located here in Princeton would not
be OF immense benefit to the farmers
OF the vicinity. The cooperative
creamery at Milaca has been very
successful. There is a much larger
area of cultivated land tributary to
Princeton than there is tributary to
Milaca.
Cooperative creameries, when
rightly managed, have been success
everywhere. The farmers derive all
the profits themselves-there are no
middlemen. Every farmer in this
vicinity should attend the meeting on
the 4th of April. Let there be no
holding back. The townspeople will
do more than their share to assist the
farmers in getting a creamery that
will be owned and operated by farmers
exclusively and every cent of the
profits will go to the farmers.
Annexed hereto is the call for the
meeting.
Farmers, Take Notice.
To the Farmers of Mile Laos, Isanti
and Sherburne counties, Adjacent
to Princeton:
The business men of Princeton are
| offering very liberal inducements for
the organization of a Cooperative
Creamery association.
An invitation is hereby extended to
all farmers in the territory tributary
