ADVANTAGES OF HIGH
TESTING CREAM

At the last meeting of the
board of directors Of the Askov
Creamery Association 1t was de-
cided to publish the following
circular letter No. 52 from the
United States Department of
Agriculture. Dairy Division:
The average fat content of
cream delivered to many cream
cries is approximately 25 per cent.
This means that, in some instan-
ces, the test is above and in
others below this average. 1t is
evident that many creamery man
ayers, as well as many farmers,
do not understand the loss invol-
we'd in handling thin cream.
Cream testing 30 to 35 per cent
is the most satisfactory to the
farmer and the creamery man.
A comparison of low-testing with
high-testing cream reveals, for
the latter, the following advan-
tages: ...
A. To the creamery man:
/. Less bulk to handle, hence
less labor, fewer churnings, small.
Ter equipment and building.

LARGE PUBLIC
HALL NEEDED

Lately there has been much
talk of the need of a large, public
hall, and we agree with those
who are boosting the thing. The
present town hall is too small,
and as there are not enough
people in Askov to incorporate as
a village it is up to the town of
Partridge to either build or en-
large the present building.
1t is too bad that this was not
brought up before so that it
might have been voted upon next
Tuesday. AS it now stands a
special election will have to be
called to bond the township.
A fairly good, large building
can be put up for about $4,000,
and we venture to say that the
rent from hall of this kind will
easily pay the interest on the
investment. We are in need of
a hall with a stage for travelling
shows, home talent plays, band
concerts, ETC., meeting hall for
lodges, a hall for holding farmers
Institutes or short courses, fairs,
a hall for indoor sports, such as
basket ball and indoor base ball,
a hall in which to entertain visi-
tors from our neighboring towns
and extend the same hospitality
that is accorded us in their city.
Band rehearsals may be held in
hall of this kind, and it may be
used for many other purposes
which time and space will not
permit us to mention.

3. Less bulk to haul to the

4. Better keeping qualities of
the cream. 1t is not the fat but
other solids in the cream which
become sour and spoil. As thin
cream contains more of these
solids it sours sooner than thick
cream.

A fair sized crowd turned out
to the parents meeting at the
school house Tuesday evening.
Mr.. Nielsen was given very close
attention during his lecture of an
hour and a half. What he said
should perhaps not be commented
upon in a newspaper but we can't
help but mention two things
which seem to us as of great inn
portance. They are: That some
people spend more time and are
more interested in feeding, car
ing for and studying their live
stock than they are in training
their boy or girl, and the boys
and girls should not always be
held away from temptations. If
they are the result might be very
disastrous when they get away
from home. Give them a chance
to learn for themselves the good
and the evil of this world and

CHARACTER

Many people believe that wealth largely the basis
of credit. No mistake could be greater The dollar is
only slightly less the basis of credit than is the basis
of character.
The fact that character is the basis of credit the
dollar absolutely secondary.
We have known welto-do men to whom we
wouldn't loan and we know many people with very
little property, but with lot of character in
dustrious, of good judgment, determined-who will
make good in their promise and their business of what
ever kind.
Never forget that character and that we put
character first
Perhaps YOU have realized-or will some time
that CHARACTER is also the VITAL factor in a BANK
