SHOULD Be REPAIRED
Stretch OF Road Across Baldwin Flats
IN Accountable Condition and
Practically impossible.
Rural Route No. ; Will in All Proba.
Dlilty be Discontinued Unless
Defect is Remedied.

George Whitney, mail carrier on
route 5, was unable to make his
rounds on Monday in consequence of
the 1mpassability of the road across
the Baldwin flats. This stretch of
highway is in an abominable condi-
ton, with deep chuck holes and mud
so deep in places that it reaches above
the horses knees, and if it is not re-
paired the postoffice department will
in all probability discontinue the
route.
Mr.. Whitney's team, while passing
over, Or through, this mud hole was
completely stalled and it was with
much difficulty that he succeeded in
unhitching the horses and getting them
out. He was compelled to leave the
buggy and return to Princeton on
horseback with the mail. Thus in
consequence of one bad piece of road
on route 3 the whole of the patrons
had to suffer.
Thos. Kaliher went down to the flats
on Tuesday morning and managed to
dig out the buggy and haul it back to
town, while Mr.. Whitney was CON-
PEELED to abandon this part of the
route and make a round about trip
with his mail.
AS all matters of this sort have to
be reported to the postohice depart
ment at Washington, the patrons on
route 3 should not at any time be sur
prised to find that an inspector had
condemned the road and ordered it's
discontinuance. The only way to OBJ
waite this is to get TO work and place
the road in proper repair.

Proposed New Sidewalk.

County Commissioners Libby and
Uglem, constituting the court house
Improvement committee, have decided
upon having cement sidewalk put
down on the north side of the court
house and walk of the same material
leading to the building from that side.
A cement walk along the west side and
a fence around the grounds is also
contemplated by the committee.
Within year or so we expect to see
the court house grounds transformed
into one of the prettiest parks in the
state. The improvement committee is
doing it's best to bring about such

Importance of Cooperative Creamery.

The Importance to the farmers of
the cooperative creamery at this
place cannot be overestimated. Sup
posing potatoes should bring low
prices next fall, and other crops, on
account of too much rain, drought or
other cause should not turn out we'll,
where would the average farmer get
the wherewithal to meet obligations
incurred during the summer season?
The farmer who keeps few milk COWS
and disposes of his cream at highest
market prices need not incur any OBJ
legations: he will have cash right
along to liquidate his bills, and he
can afford to hold the other products
of his farm and will not be Obliged to
sell on depressed market.

Two Good Papers.

1t is really refreshing to peruse the
columns of the Wahkon Enterprise
and Onamia Lake Breeze. These
papers are filled with interesting local
items and not a word of abuse of any
individual can the reader find in any
nook or corner of either paper. Both
OF these papers are deserving of a
liberal support. The Lake Breeze
and Enterprise are alike creditable to
their publishers and the communities
in which they are published.

Site Purchased.

Yesterday afternoon the directors
of the Princeton Cooperative Cream
cry association held another meeting
in the opera house and the work of
erecting creamery in the village was
pushed to point where the material
izing of the industry is a certainty.
Two sites upon which to establish
the creamery were brought before the
board for consideration lot owned
by DR.. Cooney near the Evens Hard
ware company's store and the old
Commercial hotel site which was re-
jected at the last meeting. A vote of
the directors showed that five were in
favor OF the Commercial hotel site and
that three favored the Cooney Iot
There was but very little difference in
the price asked for the sites, that of
DR.. Cooney being $3.50 and of the old
Commercial $500, but the latter DOS
sesses advantages which the former
does not
A motion was then made and carried
to the effect that the Cooney site be
purchased provided anything pre-
vented securing the one decided upon.
The president, secretary and trea-
surer we're then, upon motion, in
structed to see Mr.. Galley or call at

Rapid Increase.

Here's something about creameries
which should interest farmers: In
1890 the Litchfeld creamery was the
only cooperative institution of its
kind in Meeker county. There are
now twenty creameries in the county
and in the year 1907 they produced
1887 1884 pounds of butter, and the
farmers received SAT-, 1890 for the
milk.
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1908-04-30

sufficient material on the grounds
within a week to commence the con-
struction of the building, and Mr..
Jaenicke is a man who can be de-
pended upon to push the building to
completion with rapidity. No better
man could have been selected.
There is now nothing to prevent the
creamery being erected and in opera
ton within a short time.

CREAMERY CERTAIN

and Merchants Alike.

operative creamery met at the opera
house on Saturday afternoon to ar
range the preliminaries necessary to
begin the construction of a building.
Plans, prepared by Mr.. Fox, were
submitted by Secretary Holthus and
carefully considered by the board.
These plans, which call for brick
main structure 30 by 40 feet and an
engine room 20 by 20 feet were adopted
by unanimous vote.
The next matter taken up was the
selection of site and two locations
we're considered old Commercial
hotel site and the lot north of and
adjoining Miss Anna Sadley's mil
linery store. By vote of to 3 the
latter was decided upon.
Motions we're then made and unani-
mously adopted that August Jaenicke
be engaged to construct and superin-
tend the masonry and that Henry
Holthus be employed to perform like
duties on the carpenter work.
It was then voted to make the whole
board of directors an advisory and
inspection committee.
A committee of one was then dis
patched to secure Mr.. Caley's presence
before the board of directors on the
matter of site. Upon Mr.. Caley's
arrival President Louis Rust informed
him that the directors had voted to
build upon the site across from the
opera house, whereupon Mr.. Galley
declared he was very sorry that such
action had been taken for various
reasons, which he pointed out. He
said that the old Commercial hotel
site was much better adapted for the
building of a creamery-it would
afford more conveniences. For one
thing there would be no fear of a
traffic ongestion-there was plenty of
room to accommodate the wagons.
Then again as to the cost. He would
chop off the odd fifty dollars and take
$500 for the Commercial site, and this
would be cheaper than the lot next to
Sadley's at $500 by great deal. Mr.
Galley produced figures showing that
it would cost 500 to fill in the latter
lot, that the sewer would cost s142 and
that reservoir, which would have to
be built on the river bank would cost
at least $50 more, and then the foun-
dalton would come higher. At the
Commercial site, said he, there is
already an eight-inch sewer, no filing
is required and the foundation would
amount to d very nominal sum- Mr..
Galley asked that the vote on site be
reconsidered by the board, as it
would be better in every respect for
the farmers-he felt confident that they
would prefer the Commercial SITE
An adjournment was then taken
until such time as the president
deemed fit to call another meeting.
MIR. Galley informs the U n ion that
in consequence of recent developments
he has decided not to sell the lot north
OF Miss Sadley's for the purpose of
erecting a creamery thereon, and his
principal reason is that there is every
prospect of modern hotel being
erected there by syndicate of
fnanciers.

The Postmastership.

One of the city papers has it that
Mr.. L. S. Briggs has been appointed
postmaster at this place to succeed
Mr.. William Cordiner. AS the Office
is in the presidential class the ap-
pointment must be confirmed by the
senate which will follow as matter
of course. Already, we understand,
there are several candidates circulate
ing petitions for Mr.. Briggs place as
judge Of probate. If there should be
a vacancy in the probate Office we
hope the governor will appoint a man
in whom the people have confidence,
one equally as honest and competent
as Mr.. Briggs. It is an important
office, one in which the essential re-
quirements Of the holder thereof are
honesty and ability to impartially
and efficiently discharge the duties
pertaining thereto.
