TWO WAYS OF SAVING MONEY
English Method Of Handling Bread at
the Table is Worth Consideration
Home Baking.

In most English homes it is the GUS
tom to put the loaf OF bread on the
table to be cut as needed, and every
family has its more or less handsome
ly carved bread board, matching the
handle of the good English steel bread
knife. Where this usage prevails, few
If any odd bits of bread find their way
back into the bread box or jar to be
overlooked, perchance, until they are
moldy themselves and have contami-
mated the rest Of the contents. Is not
this a practice worth considering, and
perhaps adopting, in many a home to-
day, when the outcry at the rise in the
bakers prices is so general and SO
loud?
An even more effective economy is
wrought whenever the housewife un-
dcrtakes to bake her own bread in
stead of buying the product at the
great bakeries. Not only will each loaf
she makes cost distinctly less than she
has paid for the same weight, but if
She uses a good flour, and especially
entire wheat flour, the amount CT NJ

than they have enjoyed before.
Home baking need have no terrors
for any oIna Of average intelligence,
especially if she can afford one Of the
patent bread kneaders which reduce
both time and effort to a very mod.

CHANGE OF CONTROL
KAND|Y0H| co. BANK
J.F. MiI|ard New President Suc-
Ceeds Andrew Larson, Who
RetireS from Bank,

An important business change took
place in our city yesterday afternoon
when Mr.. Andrew Larson, one Of the
original ircorporators and for thirty
two years president Of the Kandiyoni
County Bank, and his son-at-law. Mr.
D. N. Tallman, another Of the direc-
tors, sold their entire interests, 5O2
shares, carrying the control of the in
stitution to Messrs. J. F. Millard and
P. B. Hong, respectively director and
cashier Of the bank.
Mr. Millard will become the new
president. and two directors to fill the
Of MesSrs. Larson and Tallman will
be elected at an early meeting Of the
directors.
The deal was in the nature of a
logical re-adjustment Of the affairs Of
this big financial institution. Mr.. Lar
son retires from the active business
a well-earned relief after many years
of service. Mr.. Tallnlan's extensive
outside business interests made an ac-
tive participation in the affairs Of the
bank impracticable. Mr.. Millard has
been actively engaged in the affairs
= of the bank for number of years,
and Mr. Hong was elected to the po-
sition Of cashier two years ago, and
all parties concerned mutually agreed
that the financial control should fol-
low the responsibility Of management.
Messrs. L. o. Thorpe and J. O. Es-
trem will retain their positions on the
board of directors and continue in ac-
tive service at the banking house as
heretofore.
Mr.. J. F.. Millard, the new president,
has served on the board of directors
fourteen years. During his years of
service as a state bank examiner, he
formed wide acquaintance among
the banking fraternity, and stands
very high in the Minnesota Bankers
Association. With his knowledge of
the banking business, energy and af-
liability, it is doubtful if a better
equipped banker ever assumed the
presidency of an institution, and it is
certain that he will make the most of
the splendid foundations laid and that
the bank will continue to grow and
prosper keeping pace with the devel-
opment Of the city and county
Mr. Andrew Larson was the last of
the original incorporators to retire
from the bank. He was elected to the
presidency in 1884 and has had the
satisfaction of seeing the institution of
which he so long was the head, grow
from a very modest beginning to pass
the million dollar mark in it's bank
statements. This is the forty-sixth
year that he has been identified with
business affairs Of Willmar, and he
Sill has big financial interests which
his REIMBURSEMENT of the banking re-
sponsibilities will not affect.
