CREAMERY 70 BRANCH OUT.
DIRECTORS HOLD A MEETING AND
TAKE ACTION.


New Territory viii Also be Taken In.
The Cream output From Western
Nebraska and the Black Hills win
be Gone After.
Directors of the Norfolk Creamery
company held meeting last night and
decided TO enlarge and improve their
plant and to extend their business In
many ways. New machinery will be
added and new territory will be en-
tered.
Messrs. Il. b. Kaufman and w. A.
Witzigman were appointed as a com.
mittee to select complete equipment
of al the latest machinery for the
creamery business, and 1t Is expected
that this new machinery will be in
stalled within a few weeks.
Mr.. Kaufman, who has just sold
his bakery, will devote great portion
OF his personal attention to the cream
cry business In the future, thus add
ing materially to the already strong
corps Of men actively behind the iusti-
tuition.
Will Take on New Territory.
1t Is said that the Norfolk creamery
will enter the field tapped by the main
line Of the Northwestern railroad west
of Norfolk into western Nebraska and
the Black Hills.
A great deal OF dairy output has
been going from that section to Omaha
and Lincoln and the Norfolk creamery
men believe that there is every rea-
son why that output should stop in
Norfolk. The city's favorable location
gives a strong point of advantage.
The Norfolk creamery will become
one of the most important in Nebraska
and this is great state for great
creameries.

STILL LIVES IN OPEN AIR
FRESH AIR HOME OF FRED 30.
CHE. NORTH NEBRASKA GIANT.
HIS EIGHTH YEAR IN A TENT
Fred Roohe Was Fifty Years Old the
Other Day But Looks Thirty.tive.
Has Done Little Trapping This Win
ter-Sawing Trees into Lumber.

For the eighth successive winter
Fred Boche, Madison county's giant,
is enjoying life out in the open air.
Nesting in the woodland of his land,
bordering upon a picturesque little
lake couple of miles south of Nor
folk, the camp has for eight years past
served as Fred Boches only dwelling
place. Here in the open air, with
nothing but canvas between him and
the skies, he has lived and worked and
slept And at the age OF fifty he looks
today, with his great, muscular figure,
like young man Of thirty.five.
II was only the other playground
hog day, Feb. 2, to be exact-that Fred
Boche celebrated his fftieth birthday.
And at that he Is as young as most
boys OF half his years.
Six Feet, Ten and a Half.
Fred Boche is a mighty man, stand
ing six feet, ten and half inches in
height And he is proportionately
large. And his heart is as big as his
body He always extends hearty
welcome to his friends when they drop
in upon him at his camp - and he
makes the visit an enjoyable one.
Saving Up Lumber.
From the mighty cottonwood trees
that covered his land, Boche is making
lumber this winter. Many thousands
of feet of good, solid lumber has he
|already realized from that timber.
Massive logs lie all about his camp,
waiting to be drawn to town by a pair
of horses when the first snow makes
hauling possible. He has a sawmill
on the ground and is saving up much
of the wood into the finished product.
From this he has built a carpenter
|shop and an ice house.
Puts Up His Own Ice.
Into the ice house goes ice that
Boche is putting up, off his lake, for
his own use next summer. A good
many thousand pounds of it will be
used in his camp for one thing and
another.
Price Of Furs Has Dropped.
AS a general thing, Fred Boche has
spent a great deal of his time in win.
ter at trapping. But the bottom has
fallen out of the value of furs and
there's not enough inducement to keep
at it this year. The price OF skunk
fur has gone down to about one-fifth
its former size and mink has dropped
a half. There was plenty of trapping
| to do when the market was good, the
woods along that lake being inhabited
| by many uncovered little animals.
Heats Tent With Stove.
1t is just a little stove, in which
wood is burned, that heats the Boche
tent in the coolest weather Fred has
slept in there when the temperature
outside was thirty below zero, and he
never minded it bit. He feels good
he says, for breathing IN the fresh all
of the out-of-doors all the year around
Eight years ago when the old home
was sold and there was no particular
place that he cared to live, Fred Boche
just decided TO establish a fresh all
camp and he has lived there ever
since.

MADE THE TRAIN GO SOME.
Travelling Man Lost His Train But
Not His Temper.

He was a north Nebraska travelling
man stopping at Gregory, S. D., hotel.
He fingered too long. About train
time he made a wild dash down the
street, arriving at the station just as
the train pulled out.
Missed your train?" asked the
cheerful individual as the traveller
came back to the hotel.
The traveller simply smiled. "Well,
I guess | made that train go some to
get out of the way" he said.
