which deceased was a member, yester-
day afternoon from the Methodist
church. Rev. Jas. A. Geer delivered
fitting sermon, and interment was in
Oak Knoll cemetery.
Harry E. Cook was native of New
York state and was born April 27,
1875. His parents died when he was
a child, and his. grandparents in
southern Minnesota cared for him I'M
til he went to Chicago where he lived
for II years. In 1904 Mr.. Cook was
united in marriage to Miss Eka Way
of Shoals, Indiana, who survives him.
The next year he came to Princeton
and this has since been his home.

Nj. E. Church Rededicated.

A large and appreciative audience
assembled in the M. E. church Sunday
morning at 10 o'clock to take part in
the re-opening exercises of that edi-
flee.
The auditorium was tastefully decor
ated with pink peonies, iris, and To-
Gust blossoms. The sun shown
through the large stained-glass win
dows, lighting up the auditorium beau
tifully and bringing out the effect of
the new decorations.
A praise service Of 80 minutes pre-
coded the regular service. DR.. w. E.
J. Gratz of St. Paul Central church,
under whose direction the local church
was built fifteen years ago, conducted
the services, preaching most elo-
quent and impressive sermon.
An outlay Of over $1,000 has been
made on improvements this year,$1,-
200 Of which had been raised previous
to June "a. At the close Of the SER
vices Rev. Gratz appealed to the mem
bers and friends of the church to raise
the remaining $500, which was done in
about fifteen minutes.
Rev. James A. Geer, present paste,
of the church, has worked untiringly
since last fall, giving literally of his
own time, and urging and appealing tt
others to help to complete the neces
sary repairs. No one was more
pleased with the results of the day
than Rev. Geer.
The chorus choir, under the direc
ton of Mrs. Geer and Miss Myrtl'
Nelson, rendered special music boil
morning and evening. No pains wer
spared by these ladies to make i
pleasing and fitting for the occasion.
A bell has been hung in the towe
of the church, as a fitting climax t.
the improvements. It will be run.
regularly each Lords day.
The MEMBERS and friends of tn
church, the pastor and his wife, an
all interested are very grateful t
those who gave so literally and worke
so faithfully to complete the program
of improvements.

Turnips Make a Good Late Crop

Turnips Make a Good Late Crop.
Turnips are good food and may be
sown as late as July 10, although it is
better to SOW them by July 1 if pos
sible.
Turnips> do we'll on new land, but
will grow in any soil rich enough for
grain or corn. One or two pounds of
seed to the acre is enough if sown
broadcast. If the turnips are put in
with drills the rows should be from "a
to 80 inches apart. This will call for
half pound of seed to the acre if they
are carefully sown. tsa- w, -.
