Farmers Who Could Not Tell Differ.
ence Between That and Butter.


AT meeting of the creamery
boards in the village of Nicollet a
short time ago, James Swenson of
Mapleton. state creamery inspector,
stated that at meeting of dairy
farmers in Northern Minnesota he
displayed print pound of oleomar
garine and n print pound of butter
made from ordinary hand separator
cream, both wrapped in parchment,
and asked the farmers at the said
meeting to examine, taste, and smell
of the two pieces of butter and to
point out which was the best. Those
farmers believed both pieces to be
real butter, but decided the "oleo'
to be best. He also stated markets
this winter were flooded with this
kind of poor creamery butter, which
caused consumers to take oleomarga-
rine as a substitute, hence causing a
slump in prices of all grades of but
ter, hitting the lower grades hardest
The consumers will no longer be
satisfied with poor butter. They
know good butter and will continue
to demand it. 1t is now up to the
creameries to manufacture it,

Had Taken Turn for Better
The deceased, besides her husband,
leaves four daughters and three sons.
One son, Wenzel, lives in Minneapo-
lis, and was in the city Saturday,
but returned to Minneapolis yester-

twenty-three years, and when Mr..
Jones moved to the farm he was
chosen school clerk, which position
ty-twO years.
During 1904 he was elected county
commissioner for term OF four
years, to represent the townships of
Lyra, Beauford, Medo, Sterling, Ma
pletOn and Danville. In this position
as in all others to which he has
been elected, he has been guided by
principals of honor and probity, and
his labors have been effective in pro-
noting the public welfare. Frater-
nally he has membership with the
Ancient Order of United Workmen
and the blue lodge of Masons in his
home town. Known as capable
agriculturist, citizen of the utmost
loyalty, defender of the public
school system and champion of all
movements for the mutual good, he
represents that class of our rural
population so vitality indispensable
in the moral upbuilding and perma-
nent prosperity of our common
wealth.
Leaves Four Brothers.
The deceased, besides his own
family, leaves four brothers, Will
liam M. Jones, residing on Glenwood
avenue, this city, and Lewis, Thomas
and Owen Jones of Portland, Ore.
Their mother, Mrs. Marietta Jones,
is also living at Newburg, Ore, and
the deceased paid her visit there
last winter. Mr.. Jones returned from
this trip to the coast feeling in eX-
cellent health. In fact, he was
scarcely sick day in his life, ac-
cording to Mankato relatives. One
of his sons, Albert, lives in North
Dakota.
Mr. Jones became member of
the county board in 1905, and has
served continuously ever since. He
was chairman of the board in 1906
and was elected chairman again
when the board organized in Janu-
airy.
One account of Mr.. Jones death
was that he was walking on the
street in MapletOn with his son, and
complained of feeling weak, and ex.
pressed wonder at it. His son sug-
gested that he, the son, had better
go for a doctor, but his father said
that this was not necessary as he
thought that he would feel better in
a minute. At that he collapsed.
Others came at once and he was car
ried to the home of his brother-in-
law and doctor summoned, but
found him dead.
Auditor Weaver notified the other
members of the county board, and
all were greatly shocked. Mr.. Jones
had never complained of illness, but
at a recent board meeting had
dizzy spell, which did not last long.
The county board will take appro-
pirate action as soon as the funeral
arrangements are known.

of the halls in the basement, first
and second floors, forming wains.
cot six feet high, for Sis. The firm
would also allow the board a credit
of $37 for emitting the door leading
to the fan room and the lowering
of the floor in the same room.
Mr.. Scherer said that he expected
that more than $37 would be allow.
ed for the omissions from the con-
tract, and was opposed to making
the change for SO small credit III
the contractors had to do that much
extra work they would want several
times $37 for it.
A letter from Architect Chandler
was read, explaining that it was the
intent of the specifications that the
adamant finish be placed on the hall
walls.
Mr.. Davies moved that the con-
tractors figures for putting on the
hard finish be accepted and that he
was lost, two ayes and four nays.
Mr.. Scherer then moved that no
action be taken and that the mat
ter of putting on the hard finish and
thus complying with the specifica-
tons be left to the contractors, their
failing to do SO being at their own
risk, and to be taken into account
AT the final settlement This motion
was carried.
Change in Radiation.
Mr.. Scherer suggested some pro-
posed changes in the distribution
of the radiation, and said that it
was recommended by Architect
Chandler and the building commit
tee, and that the contractor had
agreed to make the changes with
out extra cost. On his motion, the
changes were ordered made.
Mr.. Scherer suggested that a
change be made in the piping for
the low radiation, so as to run the
pipes under the floor and take care
of the condensation from the long
radiators. He also said that Ques-
ton had arisen as to whether the
contractor was to take out the old
boiler, engine, ETC., without extra
expense to the board, as the specifi-
cations were not very specific upon
this point, but that Mr.. Masters
had finally agreed TO do it without
extra expense. Two of the heavy
stone lentls over doorways had
cracked. probably due to settling of
the building, and these should be
replaced by the contractor.
Mr.. Robel said that steel beams
had already been ordered for this
work
Building Superintendent Pass ia
vored the changes in the piping sug-
gested by Mr.. Scherer, and on Dr..
HolbrOOks motion the committees
recommendations were adopted.
Superintendent Sperry invited the
board to attend the Inter-society de-
bate March 81, and to see the exhibit
of the work in the grade buildings
Friday and Saturday afternoons. All
