OPENS ITSCREAMERY
Forest0n Holds Celebration In Honor
of the OpeniHg of Its New CO.
operative Creamery.
Congressman FILLER Delivers Address
and Multitude of People Lis.
tens to His Discourse.

Foreston celebrated in a BETTING
manner the opening of it's new
farmers cooperative creamery on
Saturday and there we're, perhaps,
1000 people in attendance. AS guests
of T. b. Galley, E. L. Mcmillan, W.
81. Terrell, Miss Jennie Abbott, Her
bert Fisher and the writer we're con-
veyed, via Milaca, to our sister viii
lage in Mr.. Caley's automobile, while
Harold Galley navigated the machine.
When it comes to chauffeuring Harold
is hard to beat-he is born mechani-
clan.
The principal attraction at Foreston
seemed to be Congressman Miller,
who addressed the multitude from a
platform on Main street at l:30 p. NJ,
and Billy Benefits band furnished
excellent music. G. 81. Deans intro
duced the speaker. Mr.. Miller, in part
one of his speech, lauded the farmers
for the interest which they are taking
in dairying. He said that the time
had passed when farmers could make
a living by raising grain only-that
they now realize the great advantages
OF diversified farming, the principal
feature of which is the dairy COW. He
congratulated the farmers of Foreston
upon their thrift in erecting an up-to-
date creamery and then branched off
into legislative matters. He ex-
planned the position which he took in
the national house of representatives
anent Speaker Cannon, saying he
was an "insurgent'' and one of the
members who worked assiduously to
divest Mr.. Cannon of his autocratic
power-a movement which had proved
successful. Mr.. Miller has nothing
against Speaker Cannon personally
but is opposed to his methods. He
said that Mr.. Cannon "claimsn to be
a candidate for reelection to the
speakership, but that he has no more
chance to land it than yellow dog.
Mr.. Miller talked of course from an
'insurgent" viewpoint.
He explained to certain extent the
routine of congressional procedure
and the difficulties which exist in
getting measures of public benefit
through congress. The house, be de-
clared, is practically controlled by
half dozen men who should be
Invested of their power. he believes
in progressive legislation and up
holds President Taft in all that he
has done. he said that Taft had ad-
hered to the Roosevelt policies-tha
he should be classed among the pro-
gressives.
Mr.. Miller made favorable i'm
preston upon his audience and was
vociferously cheered. He is good,
plain talker, who uses simple Ian
guage which anyone can understand.
His greeting at Foreston showed that
his address was appreciated.
AS to the new creamery at Foreston:
It is a structure of solid brick IS by
A feet, with cement floor, equipped
with a Wizard agitator, 9OO.pound
churn and all other modern ma
chinery. 1t has frst-class patron
age and at the time the old building
was burned on June "a was turning
out on an average 80 tubs of butter
per week. The officers of the creamery
are: 81. Hegstrom, president; A.
Morehouse, secretary; John Tobias,
treasurer. The manager and butter
maker is Fred Warner. The brick
work on the building was executed by
Messrs. Jaenicke, Steinbach and
Olson and the woodwork by John
Nylon.
The Foreston creamery is an estab-
l1shment' which the farmers of that
part of the country and the people of
the thriving little village should feel
proud OF. It is building that will
compare favorably with any in the
state and it's equipment is of the finest.
Patronize your creamery, farmers
don't ship your cream to centralizers,
and you will find that it is a paying
proposition.
Candidates by the score were at the
creamery celebration and a good op-
portunity was presented to distribute
their literature.
The potato fields between here and
Foreston look fine but in some places
the,corn has been nipped by frost.
Mr.. Galley opened hill of potatoes
in field between Princeton and
Milaca and found Burbanks of large
size and fine quality. A few weeks
ago he examined some of the potatoes
in this same field and they were no
larger than peas. This shows that
the rain has worked wonders to the
late potato crop, and Mr.. Galley pre-
diets that the yield throughout this
part of the country will be good.
