VIKING SHIPPING
ASSOCIATION
~ 4
ADVERTISEMENT

To the members and patrons Of
Viking COOPERATIVE Shipping AS.
ISOLATION of Viking, Mimi: 8
Friends: q
Many of you seem to be in doubt
about which way you get the most
money for your live stock, either to
ship them with the Association, OF
to sell them to cattle buyers. For
your comparison I wish to submit
the following statement,
On Feb. "a, 1917, the association
and a buyer, both shipped cattle and
hogs from Viking to the same mar
ket. The stock buyer paid for good
hogs 1OA cents per pound, at Viking.
All thes good hogs shipped with the
association sold for top price in
South St. Paul, at $12.65 per 100 lib.
The expense rate on association
hogs in, said shipment was 1884
cents per 100 lbs. Sinking fund 8
cents. shrinkage 9O-1OO of one
pound to every 100 pounds. So
that, leaves the price at about IL
cents per pound, clear at Viking.
This makes 1acents per pound more
than the buyers price. There were
5000 pounds Of hogs shipped with
the association, at IL. cents per
pound it makes difference Of
$4,000 in favor. Of the association,
and on a full carload, difference
of about $255.OO. Now, who is more
entitled to that money than the
farmers that raise the. hogs, and
pay for the costly feed that it takes
to raise them? 8 Z
One cattle buyer, offered to. Bern
ard Johnson, for two young cattle
$780,, and claimed that to be a
high price for same, Said cattle
were shipped with the association
and brought net price Of .$61.26 to
Mr.. Johnson.
"A buyer paid for one 8 year old
| grain fed steer. $4,000. Two steers
|E3s=5years old, also being grain fed,
ffwere shipped with the association
and brought a price Of y $86.64 a
piece, clear at Viking, difference
of 1864 on each steer or s13.26
kE.ggnere on theatwo steers, thansif they
,IhM been Sud So individual Bugefs.
Nov, I compared said steers at
Viking and to the best of my judge
ment valued them to be worth the
same. There.awere many moresscat-
! %1a;n eaSI eh;r,,o onk Tf khox,- hod
/ been shipped with the association,
know that they had brought more
money to the owners. So why mot
ship your stock with the association
and help make it success, when il
! is to your own benefit ?
Issknow where many have gotten
| a wrong impression about the asso-
cation, like last fall when the mar
ket in South St. Paul was crowded
and the prices were low. AS a re-
Esu1t we got low prices for stock
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1917-03-14
N. e. BYSTROM, Local Manager

shipped, at said time. I felt sorry
for same, but please note that at
that time no buyers were seen
around boosting high prices. But
now, when the market prices are
high, and prospects for still higher
prices, then buyers are very active
buying cattle. But that is the time
that you should ship with the as
ISOLATION and get the full value Of
the high prices now prevailing.
The association: win make another
shipment April 18th, as prices seem
to go stiM higher. So if you have
any stock to dispose of, ship them
along in, said shipment and I am
quite sure that youa Will get good
returns, N.Y. opinion is that it pays
to feed all stock except Old canners)
before you ship them. Also to ship
less cattle in the fall Of the year
and more in the spring and you will
be more ahead.
Yours, for honest treatment and
a square deal.

Students Entertain.

Inc ever increasing cOllege spirit,
and the spirit Of good will on the
part Of the student body, towards
the faculty, which so thoroughly
pervades the entire atmosphere Of
North Star College, has long been
struggling for expression. It has
suppressed with difficulty, and the
prevailing feeling was that it could
not be kept. much loager; it must
out" And out il came. These fine
spring ikesS days, when nature be-
gins to break through the fields of
ice and snow, and reveals herself in
her more expressive attire, the
spirit of activity is also revived in
the life of the human being. This
awakening helped much to augment
the already intense spirit at North
star. The "ice began to break, and
the torrent of spirit below seemed
beyond bridling. 1t caused the
members of the faculty no little
perturbation. In fact, they were
almost filled with fear. Fears SEEM
ed we'll justified when, one fine day,
there was meeting behind closed
doors. The spirited student body.
had assembled to plot the downfall
of the faculty, or to plot some other
instructive measures, thought each
and every member of the faculty.
That spirit must find expression.
Who could tell the direction?
But fears were soon to be Danish
ed. The forebodings were ground
less. It was not rebellious spirit
that was brewing, but a spirit Of
good will, appreciation and respect.
The secret deliberations were. not
for the plotting Of downfall, but
for the perpetuation and strength
ening of the bond that unites the
student body and faculty of North
Star College into a truly happy
school family.
In what better manner could the
student body have expressed their
sentiments towards the faculty, and
Board of Directors, than. by the re-
ception rendered last Monday even
ing? Said function by far outdid
any previous function ned at North
Star. Nothing had been spared by
the hard working student body to
make this affair the acme in, the
way of social functions.
The stage in the college auditor
ium was deliberately decorated With gll
streamers and backgrounds of pink
snd green. The color effect Was
unique. To this was addedAa
judicious arrangement Of cut flow
erss, and. potted plants.
AT the appointed time, the, faculty
members and the members Of the
board of directors, were ushered in
upon the stage. Thence they had
the pleasure of listening to a well
executed program rendered by stu
dent talent. The following program
was rendered.:

Provost Marshal General Crowder
has this to say of the perplexing
newly-wed exemption problem: In
reference to marriage after June 5.
liz would seem in like manner that
the claim to discharge because of de-
pendency should be determined at
the date of calling. Ii the person
called is then married man and has
a wife at that time dependent upon
his labor in the sense in which that
term is used in the rules and reg
ulations. it would seem that he could
be discharged from the service, if.
in the opinion of the board. the
claim is substantiated.
