Elevator Co.
Holds Meeting
The Golden Valley Farmers Co.
Operative Company Hold Spe-
cial Meeting Last Monday.

Inc 1oloen Valley Farmers
COOPERATIVE company met in
special business session last Mon
day afternoon at Logan's hall and
large and enthusiastic meeting
was held. The meeting was call
ed for the purpose Of changing the
plan of dividing the net earnings
of the company. but as the BY
laws require two-thirds vote of
the stock and there not being that
much represented no action was
taken. However. it was the larg-
est meeting ever held and the
most earnestness was manifested.
AS there was not the necessary
stock present to make the change
motion was made to have an
informal meeting, take up the bus
iness and get an expression from
the members present. There was
nearly 100 members present and
it gave good idea Of the strength
Of cooperation when we realized
our stockholders now number
225. The meeting was taken up
and on the first proposition to be
considered a motion was made
to take vote, all those wishing
to divide the profits upon the
bushel to so vote and all those
who desire the profit divided up
on each kind of grain to so vote.
The house was divided and all but
perhaps dozen voted to divide
the profits upon the different
kinds of grain.
The second proposition was a
recommendation from the direc-
tors that the present stockholders
take out additional stock sufficient
to pay for elevator b.; that
stockholders holding one share be
asked to subscribe for an addi-
tional share. Mr.. Noble was call
ed upon and gave a statement
showing how much had been re-
ceived from the sale of stock and
how much was still needed to
liquidate the Indebtedness on the
elevator. During the discussion
a motion to sell the elevator was
promptly voted down, and then
]. M. Still in a very forceful man
ner presented the proposition of
selling the elevator or taking
enough additional stock to pay for
it, whereupon, and without furth-
er ceremony. Vince Wicka and
Len Stockwell started abe ball
a-rolling which ended in the sale
of something like so or more
shares at the meeting. MIR.
Hill then presented the matter of
taking a car of -four, as Chama
had subscribed for about a half
car and proposed to the Beach
company to take the balance. 1t
was nearly all spoken for with the
exception Of a few hundred
pounds which can be secured at
elevator office in Beach. The mat
ter Of the farmers handling their
lumber was mentioned and plan
presented whereby an investment
of$2O each by 200 farmers would
place the foundation to buy your
lumber at quite considerable dis
count. Nothing further was TAX
en- up and the meeting closed with
the expression that all members
should attend our annual meeting.
The directors are planning on call
ing the meeting at 9 o o'clock a. m.
and to have two sessions. If you
wish to have a speaker on Coop
Grafton to give an hour talk, le,
us know and we will see ii
one can be obtained without too
,nuch cost. Yours.

Excise notices can only be published

concerning the subject, provides that
they shall be published in two papers of

May Use Paper Ones.

The present use of towels in hotels,

be prohibited soon If the ideas of
Commissioner George Wusterfeld are
endorsed by the Board of Health at

the belief of Mr.. Wusterfeld as well

by the use of the same towel by many
persons in public places.
AS a remedy, the board will prob
ably decide that individual towels be
used in every public place. 1t may be
decided that the individual towels be
paper ones although no serious con
