OFFERS A SUGGESTION.
Aurora, S. d., Sept. 10, 1915

Aurora, S. d., Sept. ~, l9lO.
Editor of the Register: AS the PEG
pie of BroOkings county will be called
upon to vote yes or no upon the ques-
ton Of building a new court house
next November. we would be glad to
see the matter discussed a little more
freely in the columns Of the county
papers.
so one questions the need Of a
new court house, but how can we
point with pride to a building of soft
Bedford sawed stone when we have
he best building material in the known
world within ffty-fve miles Of our
oNn door. within our own state? or
course. there is the difference in the
freight between the long and the
short haul which should be consider
ed but believe South Dakota ma
terials should be considered first. We
have not been given any specific rea-
sons why Bedford stone is more to be
desired than our own material. Now
why not show us a cut Of a cour
house planned by South Dakota archi-
tects, of South Dakota material
throughout, and suitable for our needs
for the next fifty years to come? Then
the voter will quickly decide which
way to vote and perhaps you will not
have so many noes to count after
election. VIII someone posted please
answer? "A Taxpayer.

button diversions.
This is doubtless the underlying
reason that the ranks of the suf-
fragette have been augmented by
jewellers In the palaces OF Newport
and other plutocratic resorts.
1t has become fashionable to be a
suffragette to the extent that the tide
of ridicule has turned toward the OPP
position. In some recent newspaper
criticisms under the caption of Sc
lections From a Modern Dictionary"
sex is defined as that which determ-
ines the rights of an individual"
which evidences that the absurdity is
well recognized.
The men of South Dakota will at
the coming fall election be given the
opportunity to take the point from
such criticism by giving to their moth
ers. wives and sisters the right to
help solve those problems that involve
their common interests in those eX-
tensions of the home-the municipal
ity, the state and nation.
Let us hope they are too ~enlighten-
ed to pass such opportunity by.

Serves Every Purpose

For coffee or cereals, add one part water,
for Van Camps is as thick as thick cream.
For cooking or drinking, add little more
water. Reduce to the richness desired.
Van Camps gives to milk dishes a rich
ness and flavor which you never get from
raw milk.
AIilkman's milk separates-bcfore and at
ter YOU get it. SO your cooking milk, usu-
ally, is scarcely more than half-milk
In Van Camps you get the whole milk
all the butter fat, all the solids Yet it
costs YOU less than a half-milk. See what
a difference this makes in your milk dishes.
When Van Camps is drunk cold. it has
a slight almond flavor, due to the heat APP
piled in sterilization In cooking or coffee
where YOU heat the milk anyway-the
slight scaded flavor is entirely lost.
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1910-02-12

Let US ask at the start, what possible
reason YOU can have for not using Van
Camps;
It is canned. OF course. but canned fresh
from the COW And your milkman', milk
comes in cans.
1t is sterlizcd. that is true. But all milk
is sterilized when YOU have cooked with 1t.
1t i, reduced by evaporation, but YOU can
put the water back in a jiffy.
You have not one reason against Van
Camps. And there are all OF these reasons

Not Like CONDENSED"

Don't think of Van Camps as CON
densed' milk, for condensed milk is nearly
half sugar. Sugar was the old way of pre-
serving milk before the days of sterilization.
CONDENSED" milk is so largely sugar that
il is very expensive. And you can't use it
for cooking because its too sweet Such
unnatural milk is long out of date. Van
Camps is natural milk, preserved by mod
crn methods.
Nor is Van Camps like other brands of
evaporated. For this is Holstein milk, re-
duced TO the minimum bulk.
Common milk, only partly evaporated, is
often said to be as good as Van Camps.
But nearly every housewife knows that it
isn't. SO don't be misled
