New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1914-03-04

Wm.~Schuck, proprietor of Pleasant
Ridge Dairy desires the Review to
state that he was not called into JUS
tice court for adulterating the milk nor
for unsanitary milk as was reported
at the time he was up before Justice
Henningsen. The complaint was based
on the fact that his product tested
slightly below standard In butter fat.
Mr.. Schuck explains this by saying
that he had recently purchased num-
Der of fresh COWS and that they are
heavy mixers at present He expects
that when the amount of milk d.
minishes from these COWS that the
quality will be improved. de also
states that the milk that was tested
has been frozen in spite of the fact
that he uses small stove on the de.
livery wagon. Mr.. Schuck's dairy
was inspected by health officers last
fall and everything was found in first
ella IS condition so far as sanitation is
concerned.

New Kind of Fish.

John Amann was the recipient of
good joke one day last week, and al
though fish enters in this it is not q
"fish story" as we often understand
them, but rather a true one, too true
to be omitted. AS is quite generally
known Mr.. Amann is an enthusiastic
fisherman and he enjoys big fish
whether it is his own or his friends
catch. In this instance it was a
friends catch, huge catfish. The
catfish proper was removed from it's
head and the head mounted on a gas
pipe, this combination was neatly
wrapped with only the wI,iskered fea-
lures showing, when it was presented
to Mr.. Amann, who in turn gave it
the cook for preparation in the culin-
airy department. Scaling a fish on
a cold winters day is bad enough,
but preparing a headed gas pipe for
dinner is still worse and this was the
deplorable situation at this time. To
say the least John was slightly en-
barrassed.-Sleepy Eye Hcrald-Dis-

away at his home on North Broadway

Oldest pioneer then living joined the
great army. He was an nonagenari-

6 months and 3 days. But few are
blessed with that length of days and
Mr.. Hellmann was doubly blessed be-
cause he had escaped years of senility,
the lot of nearly all who reach four
score years and ten. Up to within
three months ago he was, mentally
and physically, a we'll preserved man.
His mind was active and alert. he was
apparently physically sonnd and his
friends felt confident that he would
reach the century mark. About three
months ago, however, he became sff1ict.
ed with kidney trouble aud for the
last ten days he was confined to his
bed. Uraemic poisoning set in and
that was the beginning of the end.
The deceased was born in the Grand
Duchy of Mecklenburg Schwerin, Ger
many, August "A, 1922. He learned
the wagon-maker's trade in the old
country and on coming to America in
1852 located in Chicago where he fol-
lowed his trade While there he was
married in the year 1854 to Sophie
Welzien who preceded him in death in
February, 1902. In 1856 be removed
to New Ulm and took homestead adj
joining the city and followed the oc-
sd Cation of farming until the Indian

During the Indian Outbreak Mr..
Hellmann took active part in the de.
tense of New Ulm and was awarded q
pension some years ago by the State

rendered the city at tn at time. After
the Massacre he went to ST. Paul and

1885, when be retired from active bust
ness life.
Mr.. Hellmann always looked upon
the bright side of things and managed
to get the full quota of enjoyment out
of life. He was congenial and we'll
liked by everybody for his many good
qualities, At the time of his death he

verein. he is survived by the follow

The refrigerating plant will be
operated by IN horsepower, motor
and includes AZ ton ammonia COM
presser besides the double pipe con-
denser and cooler. The principle is
one that has been used for various
purposes for some time. Compressed
ammonia is forced into pipes and
then released. It's rapid expansion
causes it, to- absorb heat from the
surrounding surface. This of course
lowers the temperature of the sub
stance with which it comes in con-
tact.
The new system will be used in the
cooling chambers where the ice cream
is placed after freezing to await
shipment or local delivery. At the

borious process must be performed
twice a day it becomes very heavy
burden. The new system is far more
sanitary as there is none of the drip

tenn. The ice cream freezers will

brine process. This is in itself a
great advantage for there will be
none Of the working in the cold brine.
Later Mr.. Elmer will connect the
plant with his soda fountain and will
do away with the use of river ice
entirely. The system is very similar
to the one now used at the Stuebe
Bros. poultry plant and to the one
to be installed in the new Saffert
slaughtering house.
Mr.. Elmer is to be congratulated
upon his progressive spirit as shown
by the many improvements made in
his establishment. Such an estab
lishment is a credit to any town and
he may be sure of the appreciative
patronage of the entire city.

cab OF Switch Engine No. 5l3 which
had caught fire. The men had side
tracked 5l3 as usual at the noon hour
and went to the hotel to get something
to eat. The high wind blowing that
day must have in some manner caused
the waste in the cab to catch fire and
it did not take very long before the
whole cab was seething mass of
flames. The cab was so badly damaged
that the engine had to be taken to
Waseca for repairs which was done
the same day. The cab was boarded
up so that the engineer and fireman
did not have to be entirely out of
doors during the trip. 1t is too bad
that some one who saw the fire start,
did not have presence of mind enough
to run to the fire house which was only
about 100 feet away and get chemi-
cal and extinguish the blaze before it
got under headwsy.

people and he never mixed up in their

work out his own salvation without
interference, just as he lived his own
life, as he saw it and as it best suited
him. No other of our early pioneers
had this trait developed to the extent
that he had. He was atfable in his
