The last speaker on the program was
Lewis 3. Krook. He spoke of the benefit
derived from physical culture work. Mr..
Krook spoke from actual experience as
a member of the mems class for the past
eight years. Altho it is not generally
recognized the speaker stated there is
mental culture work going on at the same
time that the physical work is being
done. He called upon Barney Esser to
give testimony to the good that is re-
ceived from physical culture work, which
Mr.. Esser did very gracefully. A very
pleasing feature of the program were:
the calisthenic exercises which all present
were called upon to go thru under the
direction of Prof. Herman Helm to re-
lieve the tedium of sitting SO long at
table. The official part of the banquet
program was completed about ten o'clock
and every one then repaired to the large
hall where dancing formed the main
feature Of the balance OF the entertain
ment. Quite a number took advantage
of the invitation to inspect the library
and museum in the second story of the
small hall. Those that took the trouble
to climb the stairs were surprised to see
so many volumes and SO many specimens
of fauna that are collected there, i
One thing which made the affair so
pleasant was the feeling of .'at-home-
ness" which every one seemed to carry
about with him and the hope was ex-
pressed that a similar entertainment
would be provided again next year.
Only words of praise were heard from
all who attended and this more than re-
pays the Society for it's effort to provide
a pleasing Inauguration of the new union
between the Society and the Club
members. 49,

living in New Ulm. He leaves no other
relatives. a~- .
Mr. Stamm, in the early days Of the
city took an active interest in it's welfare
and progress. While Of a retiring dis
, position, he never failed to voice his
convictions upon any public question
when the time and place required it. He
was one of the defenders of the settle
ment during the turbulent days of the
Indian massacre and his name is in
scribed upon the roll of honor of New
Ulm's early history. He was one of the
oldest members of the New Ulm Turn
verein, the only fraternal organization
he ever joined. He was, however. a
member of the light artillery company
organized in this city in July, 1868. This
company was formed for the protection
If the city from further depredations by
ohe Indians and was in existence several
years.
Funeral services were held from the
residence of the son of the deceased,

WILLIAM J. CURRENT.
On the homestead in Home township,
which had been his place of residence for
more than half a century, last Friday
occurred the death of William J. Current,
one of the early settlers of the north
western part Of Brown county. Death
was due to heart trouble with which Mr..
Current had been ailing for some time.
The deceased was born March "a,
1843, in Henry county, Ind. and was u
years, 9 months and q days old at the
time of his demise. He took up home
stead in the present Home township in
1864, but having qualified as a teacher,
followed that vocation for several years,
teaching several terms in the Swan Lake
district and later two years in his native
state: Mr.. Current was married to
Miss Nancy J. Bechtelheimer Dec. a.,
1868, and in the spring of the following
year the families of the young couple
came to Minnesota for permanent resi-
dence. These families, with those who
had already located in that vicinity
organized Home township at the Current
homestead a short time thereafter. For
the past 81 years Mr.. Current has held
the Office of town treasurer. The de-
ceased is survived by his widow and five
children, Cyrus c., Scott, Clay, Milo j.,
and Mrs. J. O. Chase. One daughter
died in 1880. He also leaves two
brothers, Israel P. and Bruce, and one
sister, Mrs. T. A. Case.
The funeral services were held at the
late home of the deceased at 10 o'clock
Tuesday forenoon, Rev. D. w. Schock Of
Minneapolis officiating. Interment was

1852, at first settling in Chicago, which
city then was upon the very border of
the Great West. He was carpenter by
trade and as such found ready employ
ment in the fast growing city, on the
lakes. After a residence of two years
in Chicago he again took up his journey
towards the setting sun and came to the
small German settlement of New Ulm,
where he has resided ever since, living
here for more than 81 years. He was
married in 1855 in New Ulm to Miss
Caroline Bakes, who preceded him in
death about ten years ago. Two children
were born this union, one daughter
Eugenia, and a son, Arnold. The

the PRONUNCIATION of the views and ideas
Of the Turnverein, but that they all
could and should be interested in keep
ing up Turner Hall as a social center,
even more SO than it has been in the past.
The speaker admitted that the Society
no doubt had made mistakes at times
in the past, especially in not keeping in
touch with public sentiment which is
changing from day to day. AS an ex-
ample, he mentioned the masquerades
which were, so to speak, the GROWING
efforts of the Society in the early days,
and which appealed to young and old
alike and then remarked that people no
longer take an interest in such affairs
and they have lost prestige as social
events. Mr.. johnson said the Society
had been slow to realize the decadence of
the popularity of old time enjoyments
and made strenuous efforts to keep them
popular and this is where the members
of the organization showed poor judy
ment in not adjusting themselves more
quickly to changed conditions. He
handed bouquet to the Turner Frauen
Verein who have for years been the
mainstay of the Society and who have
done so much to make the Society
prosper.
Henry N. Somsen, the next speaker,
talked along similar lines. He prefaced
his remarks with several jokes which
were cracked at the expense of the pre-
ceding speaker. Mr.. Somsen referred
to the quasi-public status of Turner
Hall and the position it had always
occupied as a social center in New Ulm
and expressed the belief that there is
probably not another hall in the whole
State of Minnesota so we'll fitted as the
local hall for the entertainment of the
public, to which every one had access SO
long as he knew how to conduct himself
He felt that it wasn't quite right that
the Turnverein should bear the burdens
of furnishing social center for the COM
munity alone as it had in the past and he
felt quite confident that the citizens of
New Ulm would help them in this by
retaining their membership in the Club,
provided the Turnverein would make
the place as efficient as it can possibly
be made, and by retaining it's tolerant
character, place where one feels that
he can go without having his views
religious, political or otherwise ridiculed
and where he can express himself freely
on any of these subjects.
On behalf of the Commercial Club,
Mr.. Ottomeyer, was next called upon and
expressed his appreciation of the New
Ulm Turnverein in its efforts to build up
the community and in providing enter
tainment for the citizens in general. He
referred to specific instances where the
Society had thrown open it's hall for the
entertainment of visitors without charge.
He believed in emulating this spirit
and he was quite confident that the
citizens Of New Ulm would at all times
back the Turnverein, in all honest en-
deavors for the uplift and the upbuilding
of the community. He spoke also Of
the effective work the Commercial Club
was doing, and how it had grown from
q down and out club to its present POI

New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1916-01-26

Word was received. From Washington
last week of the death of Edward J.
Collins, formerly a resident of New Ulm,
but for many years an employee of the
government in the office of the post
office department at Washington, having
been appointed under the first Cleveland
administration and holding his position
ever since. Mr.. Collins came to Brown
county in the latter part of the sixties,
coming to this section from Chicago,
where his studies were interrupted by
the advice of physicians to go West on
account Of his health, fearing tuberculosis
as the result of severe attack of pneu-
monia. He at first took up homestead
in Leavenworth township and followed
farming for several years, until he took
up teaching school in the early seventies.
He soon became known as one of the most
competent instructors in the county and
it was due to this reputation that he was
elected to the office of county superin-
tendent of schools few years later.
Later on he became one of the instructors
in the New Ulm schools, which position
he held until appointed to the govern
ment position.
Mr.. Collins was married to Miss Clara
Manderfeld of Cottonwood township in
1875, who with one daughter mourns his
loss.

sons are Anton, Frank and William, all
three living on the old farm.

morning at 9 o'clock from the St. Johns

Where the herd is large enough to

many cases is to keep two bulls, or
at least retain the bull after he Is

money to feed an extra bull, but the

pay the extra expense many times

It Is to be hoped that community

BITTER FLAVOR IN MILK.
Weeds In Early Pastures Frequent
Cauoe of This Trouble.

Weeds In Early Pastures Frequent
Cause Of This Trouble.
At this time of the year bad flavors
can usually be charged to the various
weeds the cows eat when first turned
to pasture. They are always greedy for
green feed, and when turned out too
early there will be more weeds, many
times, than grass. The wild onion or
garlic freely imparts it's disagreeable
flavor to milk. There is no remedy ex-
cept to keep the cows off pasture until
there is enough grass so they will not
be tempted to eat the weeds. Aerating
the milk by running it over a cooler as
soon as it is MIXED will help some.
Milk is always improved by giving 1t
this treatment.
There are bitter f1avors due to GER
tain bacteria that gain access to the
milk in the process of handling. If the
bitterness does not develop until the
milk has stood some time 1t is an indi-
cation that this cause is responsible for
the bad flavor. Since it is through
something getting into the milk, there
by introducing the undesirable bacte-
Tia, the remedy Is to use greater care
about the barn and milk room to pre-
vent dirt Of any Kind getting into the
milk.
Sometimes individual cows give bit
ter milk. When this occurs it is usually
because they are out Of condition OF
Just going dry. 1t is usually best to
dry such cows at once. Such milk
should be kept separate from the rest
or all Of the milk will take on the Bit
ter flavor.
