DAIRY DIVISION HAS
new REGULATIONS
ELIMINATES CREAMERY STA
TIONS WHERE CREAMERIES
ARE OPERATED

Unnecessary shipment of bulky,
highly perishable food product direct
ly causes waste of food through me-
chanical loss and deterioration of
quality, besides adding a great and
unnecessary burden to our transpor-
tation facilities which are already
conkested: wi
Few people realize the extent of
waste and loss which results from a
system that necessitates the fermen-
tation and spelling of what in its nat
ural condition Is the most perfect of
all foods; and any system, agency, or
individual that keeps cream from the
churn longer than Isl absolutely nec-
essary encourages a practice that dis
courages production and consumption
of food now necessary to help win the
war.
The Dairy Regulations call for the
elimination of all creamery stations
at points where we'll managed cream
cries are operated and limits the num-
ber of cream stations at all other
points to one for each 1OO,OO pounds
of butterfat annually shipped from
such points. The purpose of elimin-
ating cream stations is to reduce dupli-
cation of expense in operating same
as such unnecessary expense is al
ways borne by either the producer or
Also when several cream
stations operate at a single point the
element of competition tends to dis
courage production and delivery of
high quality product, which results
in low prices to the producer and poor
quality product to the consumer. No
high quality standard can be success
fully maintained at points where keen
in cream buying exists,
and where several cream stations op-
crate at single point it is usually
true that one or more of these act as
agents for centralizers distantly re-
moved, thus involving unnecessary
shipping charges, avoidable delay in
shipment, and poor quality cream by
the time it reaches the distant churn-
ing point.
Contrary to what has been COM
monty taught, especially by central
zer creameries, competition in cream
ouying is not a protection to the pro-
1ucer of cream. 1t actually reduces
net prices to him, or increases the
price of an inferior product to the
Cream producers who
lately have signed petitions circulated
Dy centralizers through their cream
buyer agents urging the continuance
IF competing cream buyers, have
taken such action as is not in keep
ing with their best interests as pro-
1ucers or with the best interests of
Dur nation and our allies.
Much better protection has been
provided the producer in as much as
the Food Administrators regulations
limit the margin for commission
which cream buyers may charge to
? 1-2c per pound butterfat, and fur
cher requires that all cream buyers
make monthly report in the form
IF an affidavit stating the number of
pounds of butterfat bought and sold,
and the number of dollars paid out
and received. Creameries and GEN.
tralizers throughout the state will be
required to notify the State Chair
man of the Dairy Division whenever
they change price and what the
price is. These prices will
oe given state wide publicity each
week and will enable the cream pro-

STRANGE WORM FOUND ON
CROPS

Many of the farmers in this vicin'
ity have been bothered of late with
4 small worm that has been eating
their garden stuff and have especially
attacked fields of beans. L. c. Nelson
who has several acres of beans west
of town wrote into the agricultural
department of the state about these
worms and from reply received
from there learned that they were
what is called the larve Of the sugar
beet worm which generally feed on
Russian thistles and other members
of the pig weed family. Where these
weeds are scarce they attack other
plants such as beans and beets. The
department reports that large guam
titles of these worms have been re-
ported in the western portion OF the
state this year.

TO FRIENDS AT WILLIAMS
... COUNTY STATE BANK
Minneapolis, MINI.

Force,
Williston, N. Oak.
Dear Friends:
don't know of any branch Of the
whole service that would rather b
in. than that pe-t;cular branch OF
Naval Aviation that I am nsws tax
ing up at Dunwoody Institute. L be-
lieve that is saying q whole lot, and
is certainly q very satisfying feeling,
for a fellow jerked right out Of civil
life and showed right into Militarism.
OF course my ambition is to become
an aviator Pilot, and l am getting the
best start possible in that direction.
A pilot has to know; every particular
in aircraft construction and every de.
tail about the theory of flight and air
navigation, and these very things take
up over half of my time.
am starting out with rating of
"Lands Carpenters Mate Aviation"
in the U. S. Naval Reserve Force.
About three hours a day is spent in
shop work making different parts in
the wood construction of an airplane.
This is the most difficult part of
the whole work, for l had very little
manual training in High School, and
what l did get was taken ter years
ago; but they give fellow quite a
little time and instruction on the
start, 50 I believe I'll get there after
a while.
We certainly get high class instruc-
ton and lecture here, and it's such an
intensely interesting subject that the
time flies rapidly. We get up at $50
and from then until ten in the even
ing the time is just crowded with work
and study. am on an average of
IL hours military drill each day.
It's certainly a grand and glorious
feeling to set down to tray full of
"Chow" in the morning and get up
feeling as though you could eat more,
but that you believe you've had enuf
and then repeat that operation twice
more during the day. We have quite
a "chow" line here, especially in the
mornings and evenings when we all
get in at the same time. There are
between 1850 and 14OO men attending
Dunwoody Institute, and are all fed
in less than / 1-2 hours. Some sys-
tenn. The chow is fine. l did not
like the coffee at first but am getting
used to that by now.
Minneapolis is very loyal and
patriotic city. A fellow in the service
here can spend nearly all Of his time
at liberty, at parties, dances, dinners,
etc., in private homes if he wants to.
This is high class entertainment too,
in the best homes Of the city.
Well, am due for an auto ride in
a few minutes with young doctor
friend of mine in the city so will close
with best regards to everybody.
Whenever any Of you people are in
the city l want you to look me up.
l am quartered at the .Radison hotel,
room 43O, and get in every evening
between 7:3O and o'clock. Can be
gotten by phone at Dunwoody between
II 80 and 12:45 (noon).
Sincerely.
Gus Everson.
P. S. Will be here until Sept. lst.
and possibly longer. We go from
here to either Pittsburg or Boston
for further study and instruction.
Would like to hear from each one Of
you. ....

enemy took Plemont during the fight
ing early in June and their old trench
es there are still organized with wire
entanglements.
The entire region about Lassigny
;s cut by spurs and ridges, which
facilitate defensive operations. At
Canny-sur-Matz, two miles northwest
Of Lassigny, the Germans are in the
old trench positions. The enemy is

French line with some of his former
positions.
The tactics have again changed the
entire character Of the fighting, bring
ing the troops back to hand grenade
encounters in the trenches.
Paris, Aug. 14.-In comparison with
the quick advance of the first four
days, the battle in Picardy now may
seem to be stagnant, but neverthe-
less the French have pushed nearer
to the Chaulnes-Roye-Lassigny-No Noyon
line to which the Germans are cling
ing desperately. 1t took the allies a
fortnight to get the Germans from
the Marne to the Vesle.

Japan's Income Tax Increases.

Japan having decided upon an in
crease in her navy that involves the
expenditure of $150,O00,000, spread
over six years, a general increase of
taxation has been proposed, and it will
probably be carried out.
The income tax is to be raised in a
way to bring an aggregate addition
of 20 per cent, the increase being
graduated so as to be only 10 per
cent upon the smallest incomes and
so per cent upon the largest. The
minimum income tax will be $3.50.
A war profits tax is to be initiated
on both business profits and on tn
comes, but no personal income of less
than $1,5OO a year will be taxed on
account Of it's having risen during the
war, and in this way the wages Of
working people and moderate salaries
do not have to pay for the wage in
creases Of war time. Higher than
$1,500, personal incomes must pay 15
per cent of increase and companies
that have increased profits must pay
20 per cent tax upon the increase.

often that we grew quite chummy, but
