ANNUAL PICNIC OF
HOLSTEIN BREEDERS
Big Time was Had at Bergquist
Farm Friday Afternoon.

The County Holstein Breeders AS
sociation held very good meeting
in the form of their annual picnic
last Friday afternoon at Mr.. C. O.
Bergquist's place five miles east of
Willmar. Mr.. BergQuist had hauled
home load of big smooth planks and
a comfortable place was provided for
everybody.
Mr.. Robt. Thompson, president of
the association, called the meeting to
order and kept everything moving
smoothly. Mr.. H. r. Searles of Uni
versity Farm, St. Paul, who is secre-
tary of the State Holstein Associa-
ton, spoke on the advantages of hav-
ing a county, a state, and national
breeders association comprised of
men who are interested in and who
are breeding and managing one par
ticular breed.
Mr.. ]. C. Cort, of Des Moines, a..
who is working for the National Hol-
stein Breeders Association, gave a
splendid address taking up the need
of cooperation and the value Of a
cow testing association. From Mr..
Cort's talk which was based upon a
wide range of experience, it would
seem very profitable for the dairy
men of the county to form a cow test
ing association. Experience shows
that in the ordinary dairy herd two
COWS out of five are fed and cared
for at a loss. Often, if a man would
kill off his poor COWS and keep only
the good ones he would make more
profit. The only way to tell the good
ones is by testing.
Miss Mary l.. Bull, of the UNIVERSE
ty Farm, St. Paul, gave us one of the
best talks and demonstrations we
have held in this county. Miss
Bulls talk was very interesting and
Instructive, being filled with ordinary
human events and practical applica
tions. The central thought Of the
demonstration was to show and ex-
plain the variety of good dishes that
can be made on the farm from skim
milk in the form of cottage cheese.
The president then called upon the
Secretary, Mr.. Rodegeb, for a few re-
marks, who told those present that
Miss Bull had not mentioned all the
dairy dishes. That there was a
whole freezer full of ice cream wait
ing.
Everybody enjoyed the bountiful
spread of several cottage cheese dish
es, cottage cheese sandwiches, cake,
cookies, doughnuts, coffee, and ice
cream. The event was declared a
success and the members present
are looking forward to the annual
event next year.

BURNQUlS1 IS
REN0MINATED
Latest Returns So Indicate. Dem
ocratic Nomination is In Doubt.

The latest returns indicate that
Governor BurnQuist was re-nominated
to be the Republican standard bearer
this fall, 2,498 precincts out of 3,119
in the State give Burnquist 1SO,156
and Lindbergh, 131,493. This is a
lead that cannot be overcome.
Three nominations on the State
ticket are in doubt. 1895 precincts
give Frankson 1884; Crane 71,O40;
and Stephens, 4O,737 for lieutenant
governor. With more than half the
state to hear from and Frankson and
Stephens to divide the vote, Crane
may get the nomination.
The same situation in the clerk of
Supreme Court nomination gives Muel-
Ter, the League candidate, 63,7S5 to
6S,041 for Caswell and 52,O61 for
Magnuson.
Less than half the precincts of the
state give Hilton 96,890 and Sullivan
85,262 for Attorney General
Schmahl, Preus and Rines appear to
be renominated.
For the Democratic nomination for
Governor, which possesses very much
interest in view of the division in Re-
publican ranks, Judge Comstock and
Fred Wheaton are running very close.
From 1543 precincts the vote stood
Comstock, 12,412; Wheaton 11,175.
