the audience rising He came from the
Eastern Star, gathering in time to adj
dress the meeting. He did not see
how Mr.. Hammond, who had been in
congress so short a time, could have
become so well informed on agriculture.
The butter and cheese product of Min
nesota amounts to 100000, 5000, but
the chief value is in the fact that it
enables farmers to 60 into mixed farm
ing. The Minnesota farm products this
year amount to $2OO,O00,O0O. 1t is
sad to note that in eastern states
land once worth $3.50 an acre now
brings only $50 to $40 an acre. This is
because the land has been starved. The
trend of population is toward the cities
and that of the cities has doubled IN
the last few years. The methods OF
farming must be changed, so that there
will not be so much drudgery. MIR.
Eberhart said that he was raised upon
a farm but left because of the drudg-
cry, by proper management and IN
tensifed farming, farm life will become

now confronting us is how to stop the
trend from country to city and how
to make farm life as pleasant as pos
sible. Agricultural schools will teach

the soil, ETC., but none can do this bet

Governor Eberhart said that the
state never had more efficient dairy
and food department, and he believed
in charging its power and authority
and granting it more funds; several
departments are not earning their ap
preparations, but the dairy and food
and health departments are not among
those He was glad to know that the
,, should present their demands early to
the legislature, and he was sure that
it would meet them in the proper spirit.
They would not have any trouble with
the chief executive, who was willing
to do anything to help build up the
dairy and butter industry in Minneso-

shows that Mankato has the facilities
for handling large conventions.
The Free Press was informed by Off
GERS of the association last night that
there is strong probability of Man
kato being made the permanent place
of holding the annual conventions. The
members have been delighted with their
treatment here, and feel that Mankato
is central location and amply able
to care for the conventions. The as

pounds of butter is produced in the
state annually. The buttermakers were
creating value, and he wondered what
would happen to the market if this
output was to be suddenly cut off.
Congressman W. S. Hammond of st.
James was the next speaker, and said
that the buttermakers were doors, ac-

The sixteenth annual convention of
the Minnesota State Buttermakers' and
Cheesemakers' association came to a
close this afternoon. The attendance
began to diminish yesterday afternoon,
and every train after that took some
of the delegates and commercial repre-
sentatives away. The convention has
been the largest and most successful
yet held by the association, according
to it's officers. Fully 450 butter and
cheesemakers and representatives of
commercial houses were in attendance
upon the convention in all, and the

Talked of Oleomargarine.

the prosperity of the state was built
upon.
Talked of Oleomargarine.
The maker of butter was opposed, of
course, to the maker of oleomargarine,
and was the last person who would ia
vor legislation that would increase the
sale of oleomargarine. 1t is to our
interest that the manufacture of oleo-
margarine be curtaled, that there
may be wider field for our product.
All in Minnesota should stand together
for this. But the buttermakers should
lation. We can 60 only so far as to
prevent unfairness. People have the
right to manufacture oleomargarine
and people have the right to buy it,
but no one has the right to make peo
pie believe that it is butter People
who do this should be punished severely
and every effort along that line frown-
ed upon severely. There will not be
much deamnd for it if oleomargarine
is labeled as such for the trade. There
has been some talk about removing
the almost prohibitive tax, but the
speaker did not think that there was
much danger of it now.
Mr. Hammond said that he had been
told that less than ten per cent of
the butter sold in some of the larger
cities could be classed as No. l table
butter, the rest being off grade butter.
| This condition ought not to exist. The
F! fault was not with the makers of but
| ter, but with the purchasers of the
cream, who are afraid to say no when
/ it is offered by a good patron. A
man has no right to bring to the
creamery an inferior quality of cream
and expect to be paid as much for it
as his neighbor gets for good cream.
1t was a duty to see that only cream
of the best quality was purchased, and
to make good No. l butter There is
no oleomargarine that can stand a
moment in competition with butter that
is butter. The buttermakers have I
duty to perform, and they owe it
to the creameries and to the people
who purchase butter, Mr. Hammond

SUPPLY OF ICE FOR
NEXT SUMNER


Ogden ice dealers yesterday com
menced the harvesting OF ice. and al.
though the season opened fully a
week ahead OF any previous year,
there is no doubt but that when hot
weather comes. when the people need
ice, there will be the same shortage
as in former years. However. indl
cations point toward an Improvement
over last year This condition. local
dealers say, is due to the condemna-
ton of sanitary conditions In three
or four Ice ponds. The water flow Of
the inletS and outlets Of the remain
ing ponds has been put in perfect
condition since last year. it is said.
The dealers now manufacturing ice
have no room for expansion. as their
storage capacity is inadequate to
meet the demand.
