An Auto Trip to Foldahl

On Sunday afternoon last We
editor and his wife, son Edgar and
Mr.. and Mrs. c. F. Johnson and
daughter Folsom made an auto trip
north east from the city, with no
special destination in view except to
enjoy the beautiful many colored
autumn scenery and the good roads.
Never before have we seen the
"Great Eastern" in better condition.
When reaching the northern part of
Foldahl, we stopped at a farm house
to find out where we were, when 10
and behold the genial and kindly
face of our old friend Louis Lofgren,
appeared in the doorway. Although
we had not intended to stop any
where, we simply could not refuse
the invitation. Of the kind hearted
and hospitable Mr.. Lofgren to come
into the house for short visit,
which we all enjoyed. Although
Mrs. Lofgren was at the hospital in
Warren receiving medical treatment,
we nevertheless were asked to stay
for supper, which was prepared by
a Mrs. Mattson, Of Newfolden, as
sisted by one Of Mr.. Lofgren's bright
girls, and to which we did full
justice. Somehow, autoing with us
always gives us. a good appetite.
Mr.. Lofgren is a good farmer, and
his rye, corn, oats and potatoes, have
turned out very well, and his wheat
also was fair. a big flock Of turkeys
was seen in the yard. While we were
at the Lofgrenhome Miss Elna Erick-
son, Of Warren, arrived there, to begin
teaching an eight months term Of
school in the district. She had made
arrangements to board with the Lof-
gren family. AS the sun was sink
ing in the west tive again boarded the
"Ford", bound for our home in War
rem about 1s miles away. We had
a most pleasant visit with an old
friend from pioneer days, and we
thank him for all kindness received
in his hospitable home.

OF MINNESOTA,

This Association was organized in
March with twenty-four members
and total of 100 cows.
- It is the first Association to be
organized in the Red River Valley.
In fact it is the only Association in
Northwestern Minnesota.
This section of the state has been
noted in the past primarily for its
large farms devoted to grain raising.
At present owing to depicting
soil fertility and the quick possession
Of foul weeds, due to this system Of
robbing the soil, farmers are beginn-
ing to realize that in order to pro-
perly meet this problem live stock
must very soon occupy an important
place in their farming system.
Members of the Association are
showing a marked interest in i'm
proving their herds, a number Of
"boarder' cows having been sold for
beef.
12 members own pure bred bulls.
6 have barns equipped with mod
srn steel stanchions, cement floors
and managers.
8 have silos, A being erected this
summer.

LETTER FROM THE
MEXICAN BORDER
Llano Grande, Sept. %, 1916

Llano Grande, Sept. 23, 1916
Warren Sheaf:
Since my last letter, Co. D. has
! seen actual service on the border.
| We were ordered to pack and
move to Champion Stores" for pa
trolling and guarding service
Champion Stores is little coun-
try store owned and run by a Mexi-
cam. 1t is about one-half mile from
the new bed Of the Rio Grande and
at ONE time was prosperous store,
but now, owing to the trouble across
the river, it has lost trade.
On the first Wednesday in Sept
ember the big government trucks
pulled into I'D street" and were
loaded with Company goods. Then
the men piled on and were taken to
the store. It was am eighteen mile
ride, over wet, gurnbo roads, but
the trip was made without mishap
and we arrived in our new camp in
two hours and a quarter.
The camping grounds re ideal
ard with the exception of tail weeds
We're all cleared. However, the
weeds soon disappeared and the
tents raised.
When the camp was settled it
looked like a big farm yard. On
one side was the windmill end we'll,
then. the tents lined up among the
shade trees, Of which there were
many, and on the other there was
the corral with the eight mules. A
pretty camp will never be seen in
Texas. X
There was only one drawback to
the camp and that was the lack of
water, for altho there was well
and mill yet the we'll was dry. III
While at the "Stores," the Com
pany was excused from drilling and
spent most Of their time at ''bunk
fatigue" most satisfying sport
It consists of sleeping ON one's bunk
or bed.
When we reached the "Stores''
we were still sleeping on the
ground, but the government issue of
cots arrived and we are now sleep
ing on cots with real steel springs,
Also we have wool sweaters issued
to us. They come in real handy too
because the evenings and nights are
nearly always cold here.
We were on guard every other
fniglhtt hide at olle river and NJ: Ne
went patrolling on the river banks
every day, but had no trouble ex-
cept from the mosquitoes. They
were really awful. Down here they
grow larger and have stronger
stingers than those in Minnesota
also they are more numerous and
dangerous. They cause malaria.
Two cases of malaria have brok-
en- out in Co. D., but I don't believe
we will have amy more, because of
the quinine which all men are re-
quired to take each day.
After our three weeks vacation
W. are back at Llano Grande again
bu: we miss the "farm c:.np'' and
the "bunk fatigue"
Allison Clark was sick FOR q while
but is better now and is able to- drill
again.

$3.50 From One Acre of Ground.

Louis Stordahl, Of town of ROLLS,
Marshall County, raised $50 pounds
of Grimm" alfalfa seed from one
acre Of ground. Mr.. Stordahl is one
of the best farmers near Gatzke but
his land is no better than the aver
age found around here. We do not
know what this Grimm" strain of
seed is worth at the present time,
but last year the seed houses quoted
it at $1.00 per pound. At that rate
the crop raised on that acre will
bring. $3.50.

FARMERS CREAM
cry GOING SOME.

Starts March 81 with 1,100 pounds
of milk and six days later handles over
$4,000 pounds.
The Woodwork farmers creamery
was built to handle surplus of milk
which always exists at certain times
of the year in this section and also to
provide a place for the stockholders
milk when the Chicago 5uyer' 5 price is
not satisfactory.
The factory had been provided with
operatives to handle about five or six
thousand pounds, but as we neared con-
tract day, we saw that there was liable
to be a large amount of milk to be
taken care of. New watts and presses
were ordered by telephone and installed
in time to take i'll twenty -four thousand
pounds April l, and over twenty five
thousand pounds Sunday. Monday the
amount is likely to reach over twenty
seven thousand pounds Of milk Makes
over ton of cheese a day. Sunday
the factory was crowded with visitors
People came a long way to see how we
could handle SO much milk and still
hold open door for more.
A few factories like this established
at strong points and farmers would
have more to say about the prices of
milk.

VoLIvA TO MARRY AGAIN.
Overseer of Zion City Announces That
He is to Take Second Wife
in the Near Future.

Wilbur Glenn Voliva, the overseer of
zion, is going to take unto himself a
wife and her name is Miss Ida Eman-
uelson
The announcement was made in Shi-
lob tabernacle, Zion City, Sunday after
noon. Miss Emanuelson was in the au-
dience, but Voliva was in Chicago,
where he preached in Zion tabernacle
on Michigan avenue. Miss Emanuel
son was at the service with Mrs. Ar
thur Voliva, sister-in-law of the over
seer.
Voliva's first wife died in February,
1914. 1t is assumed that Miss Eman-
uelson is in tune with Zion, as she has
been a constant attendant at the tab
ernacle
The announcement was made by Ell
der Cary, who preached in Zion City.
He did not give the date of the wed
ding, but said it would be soon.
The prospective bride is school
teacher at Zion City, although her home
is at 1l040 South Washington avenue,
Morgan Park. She was educated at
the Morgan Park grammar school and
later at the Morgan Park high school.
In the summer of 1913 she attended the
Chicago university, and graduated at
the Chicago Teachers college in 1911.
The announcement of the coming
wedding is Of special interest Just now
because it was but week ago that
Voliva preached sermon in which he
chastised women, he criticized her
claim for suffrage, he said her place
was in the home and nowhere else, etc.
And a week later his engagement is
announced.
Miss Emanuelson is about 80 years
OF age and Voliva is about 48.
