May ESTABLISH A new
CREAMERY AT BALDWIN
MEETING OF FARMERS is GALL.
ED TO CONVENE ON JAN.
UARY 7.

A large number of farmers of Bur-
leigh county, residing near Baldwin,
have become interested In the estab-
lishment of a creamery at that place,
and a meeting of all of them who are
interested will be held at Baldwin on
January Z for the purpose of talking
the matter over, and if possible per-
fecting such an organization. Dairy
Commissioner R. F. Flint is very en-
thusiastic over the proposition and
will doubtless attend the meeting and
arrangements have been made to have
John Christensen of New Salem, at
tend the meeting and tell what dairy
ing has meant to him and to the COM
munity wherein he resides. Mr..
Christensen is one of the successful
agriculturists of the Slope country.
According to Dairy Commissioner
Flint, local creameries help to build
ND the communities where they are
located. There is higher develop

ment of the country where the farm
ers sell their product to local cream
cries than where they make long dis.
lance shipments. Then where the
farmers own their own creameries,
they gain considerable business ex-
perience in it's management. 1t be.
comes in a way the business and social
center of the community and the farm
ers have an opportunity to broaden
out.
There ought to be room for several
more creameries in Burleigh county,
at the present time. The report of
the dairy commissioner for the year
ending June 80, 1910, showed the fol-
lowing interesting figures:
Number of pounds of milk sold to
creameries, 1880.
Number of pounds of cream sold to
creameries, 539,266.
Butterfat contents of same, 21O,-
945 pounds.
Amount IF butter manufactured
255857 pounds.
Money paid patrons, $53,539.14.
These figures show a substantial in.
crease over the preceding year and
do not take into consideration the
amount of cream which was sent in
to other counties or was possibly
shipped out.

Various State Institutions.

The state auditor is preparing

PASSION PLAY SURVIVAL
Of THE MIDDLE AdES
CHURCH APPEALS TO MANS NAT.
URAl LOVE FOR THE
DRAMATIC.
Rev. Charles w. Harris Will Deliver
His Famous illustrated Lecture on
Tuesday Evenin, Jan. 8.

The Passion Play at Oberammer
gau is a survival of those religious
plays that were so common during
the middle ages. The church found
that by appealing to mans natural
love for the dramatic that it could
unfold its most profound teaching.
Of course there was a danger. Such
a presentation might easily degenerate
into commercial enterprise or prove
sacrilege. Frequently that proved
to be the case and in Protestant coun.
tries such plays were forbidden, but
the Passion Play at Oberammergau
continued. The religious zeal of the
people, their innate love for the dra.
matte, the gradual elimination of
coarseness, has disarmed criticism,
and the little Bavarian village of Oh.
erammergau perpetuates a great ira
dition.
Rev. Chas w. Harris will lecture
on the Passion Play at the Presby.

The proposed house is planned with
four rooms, a pantry, bath and a roof
garden. The latter can be made a
beautiful place for the tired mother to
rest or the children to play, or it can
be made into a sleeping room In the
open air, which is the real purpose for
which it is designed The house will
be provided with every sanitary con-
venience and will be comfortable and
ideal California home.
Cooperation among the people inter
ested in the creation of a model village
for the poor has secured, absolutely
without the expenditure Of a dollar

Up on Their Claims.

The epot of the wok done at the

for the month ending November 80 has
been completed and shows a remark
able volume of business Transacted
here during that time. The report
was delayed in making out on account
of the immense amount of business
handled from the Bismarck office this
month. 1
There were IS persons who filed Oh
claims during the month of November
in addition to five coal entries and one
timber and stone entry. 1872 persons
proved up on their claims lring the
same period of time, and there were
ninety rights of election filed. Twenty
seven people relinquished their claims.
AS regards clerical work of the Of
flee it is interesting to note that there
were LILO miscellaneous etters an
swered during November. 1854 letters
were received from the commissioner
of the general land office. and action
was taken on 677 commissioners let
ters. Nineteen private contests were
filed and one proceeding was brought
up by the government.
What brings the amount of work to
the attention of the lublic, however,
with the greatest force is the state
ment of the cash receipts of the Office
for November These amounted to
$15,4O4 .92.
1t is expected that from now on the
reports will be issued each month
about on time. The great amount of
business handed by the clerks of the
Bismarck office has hindered this in
the past, but they have their work for
the present year all caught up and ex-
pect to keep it that way.
