Highest Price Ever Paid in County.

The Farmers Creamery Co. of Cres.
co, is now doing very good business
and it is the cooperation Of the far.
mers that has made this possible. The
farmers received fifty cents pound
for butter fat for fifteen days from
April lst to April 18th inclusive, and
this is the highest price that has ever
been paid for cream in Howard county.
The butter maker. w. w. Newland,
tries to satisfy every patron and to see
that he gets his just dues. If for any
reason, any one is not satisfied with
his cream test, Mr.. Newland will be
glad to have him call and talk it over.
If the patron il not then convinced, the
butter maker will be pleased to send .
sample test to the State Dairy and
Food Department and get an official
test. - =. w. -
Mr.. Newland has proved himself IN
excellent man for the creamery and
with the cooperation of the farmers,
there is no reason why this should not
be as good creamery as there is any
where. #l-

REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
By ADELE GARRISON

You like me to unpack your tlngs!
 She look me all over from head to foot, sooch look, und she say, l no tink I want you in mine tings. Are you sure you tell trut' ven you say you bin good girl vile Missis Graham avay?"
 What Katie Said.
 'sI not know vot she mean at first, and I say, Of course bin good Slrl'' and den she say, real slow:
 You may tink you hide 1t from your mistress, but I bin superintend- ent long time in home for girls like you. You no fool me. Ain't you shamed to pretend you good girl? v
 I started in anger and held katie closer as I mentally mathematical the meddlesome cruelty of Cousin Agatha. I had seen her type of char ity worker before, had known of the mental tortures they were capable Of inflicting upon the helpless girls in their charge. It takes the work Of dozen of the wonderful self-sacrlf1cing women who give themselves to labor for erring girls to compensate for the harm done by the harsh, morb1dly 1n- quisitive women like Cousin Agatha.
 What did you do, Katie?' l asked, as she burst again into tempestuous sobbing at the thought of the scene through which she had passed. knew how easily her attention was diverted, knew that if she began talk ing again she would gradually quiet herself.
 1T joost look at her at first" Katie replied, choking back her sobs 1T not know for mint joost Vot she mean. Den I get so mad I could keel her. I 'fraid I say something awful bad to her. I know you never let me stay now, but I so mad by her I not care vot I say!"
 What did you say to herr" I queried.
 1T walk oop to her." Katie an- swered, "and I look her straight in eye, and I say:
 You vun old liar!'
