provisions of the law passed last
winter regarding the registering of
farm names with the register of
deeds.
Miss Hunters farm is the southwest
quarter of section two in Moore town

Many others have talked with Re-
gister of Deeds Gaffney regarding re-
gistering their farm names, and have
requested that certain names be re-
served. The first person registering
certain name is entitled to it's ex-
elusive use in this county.

Enthusiastically now, and all will unite

Cream Buyers In Trouble.

Long Prairie Leader: The cream
buyers for the Cobb and North Amer
lean companies at Osakis were ar
rested last week by Deputy Food and
Dairy Inspector Goetsch. The charge
against them was having in their pos
session impure, decomposed and un-
wholesome cream.
The Cobb agent plead guilty and
was given stiff fine. The North
American agent preferred to fight the
case. He was given jury trial,
found guilty and fined $50 and costs
amounting altogether to $3.50. Com
plant has also been made by the same
inspector against the cream buyer
for the Oak Hill Mercantile company
at Oak Hill. 1t is well right here to
call the attention of the farmers to
the fact that the man who sells impure
cream is subject to the same penalties
as is the man who buys it. A well
known Belle River farmer was fined
$15 and costs at Osakis a short time
ago for offering to sell can of i'm
pure cream, The efforts of the state
department to raise the standard of
milk and cream sold to butter manu-
facturers is commendable one and
one that will have the support of all
good citizens. The reputation of
Minnesota butter is at stake and if the
careless farmer and speedy buyers
market unwholesome cream public
opinion will back up their prosecu-
ton.

GOOD RACES.
Over Twenty Horses in County
Fair Races.

Stevens County Fair, at Morris,
Sept. 10Th, 10Th and 18th.
1t has always been the policy of the
management of the Stevens County
Fair not to advertise things different
from what they are. In other words
things are not misrepresented. And
so when the management tells you
that this year the horse races will be
the best seen in Stevens county for
many years, you may rely upon it
that they will be SO. 1t is safe TO say
that over twenty horses will be en-
tered in the various racing events.
The purses are large enough to at
tract horses from afar, and there will
be horses here from the twin cities, as
well as from points outside of the
State. That means good races. The
track is in better condition than ever
before, end everything points to re-
cord breaking race meet.
Attention is called to the school ex-
hibits. AS heretofore, all school
children in the county, under fifteen
years of age, will be admitted free.
The premiums in the educational de-
partment are much larger than here
tofore, and this exhibit will be one of
the most attractive on the grounds.
All teachers and school children are
urged to bring in their work as early
as possible in order that the superin-
tendent may have ample time within
which to make displays. Teachers
and school officers desiring to procure
tickets for school children should call
upon or write R. S. Roberts, of
Morris.

Insurance News.

The Metropolitan Fire Insurance
Co., of Chicago Ill, has ceased doing
business in Minnesota and has rein
srred it's unexpired policies in the
Westchester fire of New York.
The Provident Savings Life assur-
ance Society of New York, which re-
tired from this State about three years
aog, was relicensed by the New York
Department August /. The impair
ment of it's capital has been made
good. We advised policy holders in
this company to continue paying their
premiums. The relicensing of the
company justifes our position.
The receipts of the Insurance De-
partment for the first seven months
of 1909 show an increase of S3,6OO.OO
over the corresponding period of
1908.
The department is in receipt of
numerous inquiries in regard to the
merits of stock selling schemes that
are being presented to the citizens of
this State. 1t is not the function of
this department to advise in regard to
investments, but a few general state
ments may be of benefit to those who
are solicited to purchase insurance
companies stock.
Insurance as an investment does not
differ greatly from any other business
enterprise. Some companies will
succeed, others will fail. The success
Or failure will depend almost entirely
upon the amount of ability, technical
knowledge and integrity possessed by
the management. 1t will also depend
upon whether the company is organ
lied for the purpose of doing an in
surance business Or for the benefit of
the promoters. There is no royal
road to wealth through insurance in
vestments. They require the same
careful investigation as do all forms
of industrial investments. The COM
pany that uses half of the receipts
from stock sales for organization pur-
poses, as was recently done, does not
give promise of either large or i'm
mediate dividends.
The fire losses in Minnesota for July
amounted to $S25,000 as compared
with $115, 900 for the same month in
1908. The losses in the United States
were S13,553,000 as compared with
$13, ,461 900 in July 1908.

ON LEARNED BASIS.
Housekeeping a Scientific Study
at the "U."

Minneapolis Journal:-A course
that will enable the university gradu-
ate housewife to make her own
matches, analyze her soap, make hel
own preserves and make it possible
for her to tell why her plants do or dc
not thrive, will become part of the
regular courses in the college OF
science, literature and arts at the Uni
versity of Minnesots for the first time
this fall.
George B. Frankforter, dean of the
college of chemistry, is the father OF
the new course in household and sani-
tary science, elective for women, and,
according to Registrar E. B. Pearce,
every possible branch of learning nec-
essary to make for model home will
receive thorough treatment. The
course includes work in the depart
ments of bacteriology, botany, animal
biology, chemistry, hygiene, econo-
mics, sociology, and even mechanical
and municipal engineering.
The course includes discussion of
foods and foodstuffs from the botani-
cal, biological, chemical and physio-
logical point of view; also, a discus
sion of hygiene, heating, lighting and
ventilation. The course is offered as
three-hour elective to a., women in
the junior and senior year.
Professor Frankforter is not in the
city at present, but Mr.. Pearce made
the statement today that the profess
sor has long had the idea that, with
the elaborate outlay of scientific
facilities at the university, the woman
who wishes to carry on the work of
her home in a thoroughly sanitary
and up to date manner, has as much
right to use these advantages at the
university for the pursuit of her OBJ
jeet as the man or woman who wishes
to devote his energies to the acquire
ments of any other scientific profess
sion.
The course will be under the super
vision of Dean F. A. Wesbrook of the
college of medicine and surgery, and
Professors John J. Father, Frederick
E. Clements, R. O. Beard, E. FL. Bass
and FL. E. Nachtrieb.

He Was a Wise One,

A certain gentleman in a country
town owns a row Of houses, and in
one of them lives a married son of his
who is noted for his miserly habits.
This had got to such a pitch that for
several years his father had been un-
able to get single penny of the rent
due to him.
AS be did not want to take harsh
measures he at last went to his son
and said:
Look here, Tom, it's plainly no use
my trying to get any rent out of you
for that house of mine, SO I've decided
to give it to you"
mo fear" interposed the son. 81
Shan't have it,"
"Why not, pray?" exclaimed the as
tonished parent
Because then," replied the unabash-
ed son, ''I'd have to pay the taxes, and
goodness knows they are heavy enough
in this town."

CENTRALIZERS ON RUN.
Pay High Prices Only While Lo-
cal Creamery is in Operation.

1t will be gratifying to the farmers
of the state who have been pounding
long and loud for the local creamery
to know that there has been less
cream shipped to the centralizers
from Minnesota points the past year
than for the year previous. This is
not surprising, for the creameries have
paid on the average more money per
pound for butterfat than have the
centralizers. Farmers are beginning
to study the situation, and they find
that wherever there is a good cream
cry in operation the centralizers pay
more for cream. But when they find
point where the creamery is not
running they pay as they see fit.
Some of the local buttermakers are
getting on to this, and they are keep
ing their patrons informed as to what
the centralizers are doing.
Does this not indicate that when
the creamery is knocked out there
will be different situation, and the
Kansas prices will prevail in Mime
sofa? Another and very significant
thing that gives proof of the fact that
the local creameries are giving the
centralizers hard chase is the appli-
cation of the centralizers to the Cent
raj Freight Association asking to have
the rate on butter in less than carload
lots raised Is cents per 100. They
want every advantage, and the Min
nesota Dairyman wants to put>it up to
the farmers in this state that now is
the time to stand by the local cream
cry.
Everybody knows that the North
western Dairyman, published at st.
Paul, was started in the interest of
the centralizers and it never contains
line to encourage the local cream
cry, but has page after page devoted
to how they have failed or should fail.
This sheet is being sent free of charge
to the farmers all over the Northwest
in the hope of making friends of the
central plants. Minnesota Dairy
man.
