on balls. With three men on and
two out :'Lucky' Roos came to bat
and set the crowd wild with two
base smash down the first base line,
Galley and Berg scampering home on
the double Doane finished the ex-
element by going out at first on an
easy roller to Skeats.
This rally still left the locals one
to the bad, but they had victory in
sight and the crowd was yelling
wildly for more, and when Davis
opened up the seventh round with a
double to center field the crowd
knew things were going to be doing
and pandemonium broke loose in
general. Wilkes further added to
the jollifcation when he drove a
double to right field, sending Davis
home with the tying score. Wilkes
stole third but was caught moment
later at the plate on Smiths at
tempted sacrifice. Galley came
through with another hit and then
Berg and Skahen followed up with a
safe >wallop APIECE, and before the
excitement was over Princeton had
run in three scores and taken the
Lead to 5. Just to show that it
was no accident, the home guard
started another batting rally in the
eighth, and before they let up on
Mons. 5keats they had gathered in
three more runs and put the game
away safely in the ice box-lO to 5.
Next Sunday the Milaca team will
be here to play the locals for the
championship of the county, and al
though little is known of the
strength Of the up-river team, still
the fans can rest assured that they
will be here with scrappy team
and determined idea of putting a
crimp in the tigers tail. This will
be the last game OF the regular
season, so everybody turn out and
help the locals close the season with
a victory over their old-time rivals
from the north country.

George Newbert Accidentally Shot.

While George Newbert, accom-
panied by another Mora gentleman,
was returning from Princeton to his
home at Mora in his automobile on
Sunday evening, and when near
Stanchteld lake, he was struck over
the left ear by a bullet from a %
caliber rifle which plowed a groove
about three inches long. The bullet
passed through the top Of the car.
He brought the machine to a stand
still and proceeded to the farmhouse
of \. H. Anderson.
While engaged in washing the
blood from the wound, Herman
Fricke, a young man about p years
old, appeared at the Anderson home
and apologized to Mr.. Newbert, say.
ing he was very sorry the accident
occurred and stating that he was
shooting at stone when the bullet
rebounded. Fricke and his father
went to Mora on Monday and called
upon Mr.. Newbert in regard to the
matter.

Improving Road to Zimmerman.

A good job has been done in grad
ing and Strengthening the Princeton
and Elk River road north of Zim-
norman. But the newly-constructed
part of the road will need attention
for some time. The ruts should be
kept filled-a road drag could be used
to advantage. Further north, toward
Princeton, the road is also being
Strengthened and graded, but the
work is as yet incomplete.
The entire road between thinner
man and Princeton should be prop
erly graded and given a heavy coat

is what we hope to see done next

WEST BRANCH PICNIC
The Farmers Cooperative Creamery
Company Entertains a Multi
tude in Uglem's Grove.
F. D. Currier and Andrew French De-
liver Addresses on Matters of
Interest to Dairymen.

The West Branch Creamery associa-
tion held it's annual picnic in the
beautiful grove of O. H. Uglem on
Sunday and hundreds of people took
advantage of the opportunity to en-
JOY days outing. Uglem's grove,
with it's big, spreading trees, is
magnificent spot for a gathering of
this kind-there could scarcely be
found place better adapted to the
requirements.
Pepole came from miles around to
attend the picnic and Princeton was
we'll represented many teams and
automobiles from the county seat
were lined up on the stretch of
ground set apart for vehicles.
Shortly after noon dinner was
spread upon the greensward- the
good old-fashioned basket dinner pre-
pared by the farmers wives and
daughters all we're extended
an invitation to help themselves to
the good things provided. Viands
of all sorts were spread to appease
the appetite of the multitude.
The creamery association was for
tunate in securing as speakers for
this occasion two of the best authori-
ties on dairying in the state-An-
drew French of St. Paul and F. D.
Currier Of Nicollet, president and
secretary of the Minnesota State
Dairy association. Mr.. French spoke
on the benefits of the silo and the
care and feeding of dairy COWS, while
Mr.. Currier gave a general talk on
dairying. Both gentlemen made
very able addresses which contained
a deal of valuable information for
farmers who take an interest in dairy
ing-and most of the farmers in this
part Of the country do.
One of the features of the picnic
was ball game between Long Sid
ing and Estes Brook, and it was a
contest full of interest and excite
ment. The score was 5 to in favor
of Estes Brook. d. ' -... - .-
+ The West Branch creamery is do
ing a very satisfactory business. Its
patrons are increasing fast as result
Of the inducements offered-highest
market price in cash for butterfat.
The patrons of this creamery realize
that. with a ready cash market for
cream, nothing pays so we'll as good
milk COWS.
A word of praise is due the direc-
tors of the creamery. The board
consists of progressive, level-headed
farmers who avail themselves of
every opportunity to enhance the
success Of the creamery and, under
the management of such men, the
concern cannot do other than prosper.

Parcel Shower.

n parcel shower Was given at the
residence of J. J. Skahen Oh Monday
evening for Misses Kathryn Kaliher
and Bertha Dugan, prospective
brides, and there was a large at
tendance of school teachers and other
friends of the young ladies. Dainty
refreshments were served and the
house decorations were in a color
scheme of red. The young ladies re-
ceived many beautiful gifts, but
they were compelled to go on a still
hunt to find them, as the presents
were hidden away in various parts of
the house. One of the features of
the evening was the writing by
each guest of her life history on
a blankbook furnished for that pur-
pose. The judges decided that Miss
Bower had written the best autobi-
ography and she received round of
applause.

trimmings of crystal beads, were
worn by each of the brides and their
wells were caught up with lilies of
the valley. Each carried white
prayer book but no flowers.

school and among Minnesota's fairest
daughters. They have taught in the
public schools of Mile Laos county

Apply a Little Rye Straw.

At this season of the year, when
rye straw is plentiful, it would be a
good thing to straw some of the
sandy stretches of road. In this day
of automobiles a coating of straw
is not very lasting, but it helps some
helps great deal. A couple of
coatings of straw will keep the sandi-
est stretch of road in good condition
until snow flies. An expenditure of
800 in strawing the sandy pieces of
streets and roads within the village
limits would be money we'll invested.
The strawing should be done right
away so as to have the streets and
roads in good condition fair week.

A Coat eff Straw Will Help.

The town and village should see to
it that the road. leading west from
the depot is strawed to the intersec-
tion Of the north and south road.
Part OF the road in question is in
the village and part in the town. A
coating of straw will help that sandy
stretch immensely and would be
appreciated by hundreds of farmers.
Straw in abundance is available at
the west end of the road. The cost
will be trifling and benefits conferred
will be great. Do it now.

not moldy and not musty. Mold and
must are not to the calf's taste, nor
for its good.
If you will study this youngster,
carrying it along nicely and educating
yourself by doing it, you may have a
steer which the next fall may be
worth t%hirty-fve or forty dollars.
Otherwise it may be worth only ten,
or perhaps dear at any price. We
will guarantee it to be a poor invest
ment, If you will feed it skim milk,
SOU one day and sweet the next, If
you will kick it around and abuse 1t.
If you mistreat that calf in any way,
it won't pay.
How to grow this calf to your pro-
fit will not be learned out OF books or
newspapers, although they can give
hints. 1t must be learned by expert
ence. OF mi thing WI are quite GER
tain: that a we'll bred calf can be
raised by hand so successfully that
when it is ready to go into the feed
lot at two years old it will be equal In
every way to the calf that has run
with the dam all summer long. 1t can
be done. We have seen it done. We
have had it done on our own farms.
Hundreds of u readers have done it..
Hundreds Of them have made a fail
ure of it, and the failures have al
ways come from refusing to yield
obedience to the imperative require
mentS Of nature, namely, that the
calf must have The first milk, that it
must have whole milk at least ten
days; that it must be put on skim
milk gradually In the next two or
three weeks; that 1t must have sup
Elemental feed to take the place of
the butter fat; that is, the carbohy-
drates of orn and oats may be sub
stituted for the fat you have extract
ed from the milk. Then the milk
must be fed uniformly sweet or uni
formly sour. 1t takes time to get the
calf's system adapted to sour milk or
buttermilk. 1t can be done, but the
s%ourness must be the same from day
to day.
All this takes trouble; but it will
pay. There never has been a time
when there is greater inducement to
take care of the calf than now. Our
cattle population is decreasing alarm
ingly. There is a cry for feeders all
over the United States, and there
will be for two or three years to
come. We can increase our supply OF
hogs, when that becomes short, in a
year or a year and a half. Our brood
sows will raise two filters a year, If
we ask them to. II the supply of
corn is short, we can Increase it in a
year. We car increase the stock of
sheep in a comparatively short time,
because by taking are we a have
100 to $50 per cent of lambs. You
cannot increase the stock of cattle
rapidly. The COW will have a calf but
once a year, and the percentage OF
calves is likely to fall considerably be.
low 100. Then it takes at least a
year and a half to get the calf to
market.
Take care of the young things as
they come from this on. See that
they come in clean we'll ventilated
stables, protected from the storms of
winter. See that they have sunlight.
AS they develop see that they have
exercise. Another year of even a
normal corn crop-we need not eX-
pect such a crop a last year-will
make us all wish we had something
to eat 1t.
