SPRINGFIELD CREAMERY GROWS

Some very interesting figures were
brought to light in the Springfield Ad-
vance of last week, in regard to the
Springfield Creamery. The Creamery
started twenty years ago with August
Hummel, now engaged in the clothing
business in this city, employed as butter
maker. During the first month Of
operation, forty patrons brought their
milk to the plant and 3,775 pounds Of
butter were made. The patrons re-
ceived the phenomenal price Of Is 1-2
cents per pound for the product. But
even this was quite an improvement on
the eight and nine cents the farmer had
been receiving for his home made pro-
duct.
During the month dating from May
IS to June is Of this year, the creamery
served 181 patrons and handled 1876
pounds Of butter fat for which price
of 80 cents per pound was received,
almost double the price twenty years
ago. The total amount paid to patrons
for the month was $4,625.61. At the
time the creamery opened the whole
milk was handled at big expense for
hauling. Now only the cream Is con-
veyed to the creamery and the milk il
kept at home to be fed to the stock. in
good condition. 81 #

KARPEN HAS HARD LUCK.

The "Fish that got away was not
the big fellow according to good story
that is being told at the expense of P. J.
Karpen, deputy game warden for this
district. Warden Karpen went fishing
last Sunday, and by the hardest kind of
work succeeded in landing lone pike.
In rowing about the lake he came upon
a fellow disciple of Isaak Walton upon
whom fortune had smiled more kindly.
While examining the latter's catch Mr..
Karpen noticed a fish that seemed
suspiciously small. Suspecting a viola
ton Of the states game laws he asked
to be allowed to measure the pigmy, and
it was promptly handed over. AS he
reached for his tape the fish tipped from
his hand into the water, and darted
away. Not only did Mr.. Karpen's
evidence vanish, but he was compelled
to make good the loss by turning over
the pike he had caught earlier in the day.

It the best flour in the world.

wv EeAG%|eOS AOO1H IA SAl0 WOS4Os s ~
The bakery where Miss Gleason turns
out such light and perfect bread, is
fully as interesting and certainly less con-
fusing to the average mind. We can
all appreciate good bread and that is the
kind that Miss Gleason's long experience
enables her to produce. If the proof
of the pudding is in the eating, it is Just
as true that the proof Of the flour is in
the bread it will produce. Working
on this assumption, Miss Gleason tests
all the flour by actually making bread
under the most ideal conditions. The
whole process from the Sponge" care
fully produced in the asbestos lined
ssponge-box" at a uniform temperature
to the finished bread in big brown loaves
is gone thru daily. If any. young
housewife is uncertain as to her ability
to make bread ''like mother used to
make" let her go and take lessons from
Miss Gleason and she will soon be able
to show mother some tricks in the
gentle art of bread making.
Certainly, with such facilities for
scientific aid in producing flour, the
Eagle Mills will find their product in
greater demand than ever.

BOARD OF BOOSTERS TRIP.

Last weeks Review spoke of hearing
from Theodore Figge on his trip with

Exchanges then in session at Los Angeles,
Cal. Mr.. Figge sprang into the lime
light by furnishing the Minnesota Boos-
ster's song for the North Star delegation.
Here it is as it was clipped from the. Los
Angeles Daily:
GLORIOUS MINNESOTA
Have you ever seen the glory of that
bright star of the north?
Have you ever heard the story of it's
children going forth,
With sunshine in their faces and within
their hearts song,
AS they go travelling on?
Glorious, glorious Minnesota,
Glorious, glorious Minnesota
Glorious, glorious Minnesota,
It is there we have our homes.
We can hang our coats and bonnets on a
hundred million trees,
We have lakes and rivers clearer than one
elsewhere ever sees;
And the women are the fairest under Min
nesota's breeze,
So we love to sing the song.
We are out on this excursion for to see
and hear and feel,
How our brother men are faring,
What they know Of their next meal,
We have got the mills 70 feed them and
the ore to make their steel,
Do you wonder at our song?

OF BROWN COUNTY.

We are glad to be able to an..,..".:e
to our readers that a new history Of
Brown County, Minnesota, is now in
course of preparation, which will appear
in two large volumes, printed on fine
quality of book paper, copiously illus
trated and handsomely bound.
The first volume will be devoted to
general history, under the editorial
supervision of DR.. L. A. Fritsche, and
will date from the very earliest pioneer
days to the present time. 1t will
speak of the organization of the county,
it's townships, churches, schools, factories,
public institutions, war, religious and
political history, railroad and agricul-
tural interests, pioneer and social life,
etc. DR.. Fritsche has made the history
OF Brown County study, and is we'll
known throughout it's borders as man
of fine literary attainments. He has
been resident of New Ulm and practiced
medicine here since 1891, and is president
of the Brown County Bank. He will
have the assistance of number of local
writer's on this work.
The second gvolume will contain
biographical sketches and family history
of prominent and representative citizens
throughout the county, and hand down
to posterity records that will be in
valuable.
The old settlers are fast passing away,
and it behooves those of us who are still
living to put into permanent form for
coming generations the important facts
and suitable story of the heroic deeds
of our ancestors. 1t will be stimulus
to the present and younger generations
to know what has been accomplished
through the hardships endured by the
rugged and brave pioneers in order that
we might witness and enjoy the grand
development of our county as it appears
today. Such a history is greatly needed
and should be encouraged by our public
spirited citizens. 1t will be published
by B. F. Bowent Co., of Indianapolis,
for many years publishers Of county
histories in a number of States of the
Union, and whose reputation for issuing
first class and authentic works is well
established.

HEATING PROJECT PUSHED

Fifteen of the business men directly
interested in the proposed central heat
ing plant met at the Commercial Club
rooms last Tuesday evening to discuss
ways and means of having the matter
settled. A committee was appointed
to devise some method of floating the
project and raising the necessary funds.
AS soon as suitable method of financing
the project is decided upon the matter
will be taken up with the city council
for further consideration.
The meeting was called by President
G. A. Ottomeyer and consisted only of
those directly concerned with the pro-
posed improvement. The small num-
Der who responded to the call was quite
disappointment as it was hoped that
all the merchants and business men whose
buildings lie in the territory to be covered
by the heating plant would be there to
voice their sentiments in regard to the
system.
The complete report of the American
District Steam Company which the
committee on the heating project had
received and placed in the hands of all
the merchants was then read and ex-
planned by Chairman F. w. johnson
and lively discussion followed. The
report is wonder of thoroness and was
prepared from the data collected by the
company after a careful investigation
of conditions here in New Ulm. The
substance of the report was presented
in the last issue of the Review and it
shows in brief that the property on both
sides of Minnesota Street, on the west
side of German Street and the east side
OF Broadway between Second North
and Center Streets and the adjacent
territory could be heated by the waste
steam from the Electric Light and Water
plant and that ~ per cent might be
| realized on the necessary investment OF
$4,000 and as high per cent from the
extension of the system to include the
! property to north as far as Third North
Street and to the south as far as First
South Street and some OF the adjacent
buildings.
The report of the investigating com
mittee was accepted and a new COM
mittee was then appointed to decide
on the best method of funding the pro-
position. The new committee, COM
posed of A. J. Vogel, chairman; H. N.
Somsen, Emil G.. Hage, Ferdinand Crone
and John H. Forster will meet in the near
future and agree on the best method Of
perfecting the plan. One plan proposed
is that all of the business men whom the
heat will reach form corporation and
put in the plant for the city taking their
pay in steam. Other methods are under
advisement, however, and nothing final
has been decided upon.
The general impression is that the
central plant is wanted and that it can
can be financed in way entirely salts
factory both to the city and the parties
concerned.

And The Latter, Four Hits.
Monday afternoon the Springfield
Maroons met the Pirates at the local
diamond and trimmed them up to the
tune of 40. Altho the pitching was
good on both sides Springfield won the

the most critical time. Kuester pitching
for the Pirates allowed hits and famed
S men; and Kramer allowed but hits
and got Z of the local batters.
The attendance at the game was very
good over 400 tickets being sold. This
shows that the people of New Ulm are
beginning to become more interested in
base ball and we hope that the fans will
turn out as good or better next Sunday
when we play Sleepy Eye on the local
diamond. Kuester or Huevelmann will
be in the box for the locals while Bjoski
or Berg will deliver the goods for Sleepy
Eye.

Friend John:
I noticed in the last issue of the Review
that John Katzenberg had died and
you were looking for relatives !. l do
not think that this is his right name but
that the name is Gasberger. His folks
used to live in the neighborhood of John
Stamms.
John learnt the timers trade and
worked at that at times. Think he
learnt his trade from George Schneider
or it may have been of Dietz who used
to run the shop before George got it.
My mother used to speak of them and
if my memory serves me right there was
one sister in the family who must be
about my mothers or Mrs. John Hauen-
STEMS age. She was married at New
Ulm and moved away. I know that as
school children we used to call them
Katzenberger and ! was reprimanded by
my father for calling him nicknames.
Probably some Of the old timers like
Herman Helm, Hugo Gebser, VIM.
Pfaender or Adolph Setter can recall
them. Trusting that you will be sue
cessful in locating his relatives I am
