Only &C
sHE Chero-Cola Company enjoys the unique posi-
ton Of being the only soft drink syrup ma nufac-
tWer in America operating its full process bone
char" sugar refinery which process that univ ersaly
employed in producing the highest grade Of grsnulat
ed sugar
High grade soft drinks require refined sugar equal
to the best manufactured by the largest American
fineries, all Of which use the "bone-char' process.
This refinery has enabled the Chero-Cola Company
to manufacture Chero-Cola syrup when other less
fortunates could not secure sugar anywhere at any
price
Buying as we do, what the trade terms Cuban
Raws" we do not compete with the housewife in her
purchases for the family sugar-bow. Our contracts
for sugar made last year, at figure far below
the present market price, have permitted to furnish
CheroCola Bottlers with syrup at price which has
enabled you to buy Chero-Cola at Sc bottle.
The constantly increasing demand for Chero-Cola
syrup has largely exhausted the low-priced sugar
bought last year. and new contracts are made at a
much higher price.
This fact coupled with other increasing COSTS has
caused an advance syrup to our Bottlers, who
in turnhave advanced Chero-Cola to the dealer, and
he sells it to you at an advance Of only cent
bottle.
The success of CheroCola is argely!ascribed to its
unfailng uniformity. That this uniformity of flavor
and quality be maintained, it is necessary 10 advance
the price to &C., We will not sacrifice quality nor re-
duce the quantity.
We feel that our millions of friends will appreciate
that we have held the price of soft drinks down to
five cents until the rising tide Of cost made i mpos
sble and promise that when It is possible Chero-Coa
will be among the first to return to the old price.

ST CLOUD HAS TRAFFIC COPS ON
COUNTRY ROADS,

It was generally. known that the
traffic cops in st. Cloud always were
inclined to overstep their bounds par
ticularly with strangers but Sherman
Lewis Of this city was treated to what

max" Mr.. Lewis, DR.. c. H. Longley,
Albert Enke and Frank Cannon were
on their way to st. Cloud in the Lewis
car and as they approached St. Cloud
motorcycle cop met them and charged
them with coming into the city at
speed of IS miles per hour, with the re-
suit that Mr.. Lewis had to leave a de-
post of cash with the police captain.
This was after 10 p. m. Saturday night.
Mr.. Lewis states that they were travel

A WORD OF CAUTION TO SWINE
BREEDERS

County Agent Campbell warns farm
ers and stock raisers not to deal with
the National Purebred Swine Associa-
ton, whose agents have been active
in certain parts Of this country, includ-
ing this state. This organization organ
ICES local purebred swine breeders as
sociations and gets twenty or more
farmers to take one or more pure bred;
swine each at 5000 per head. They
then furnish the local association with
a purebred boar free. They claim to
represent purebred swine breeders Of
the country and to have the endorse
ment Of the Pennsylvania and Wisconsin
agricultural colleges. That they do not
have the endorsement of these colleges
is proven by letters from the colleges.
The county agent advises the farmers
not to buy from this organization be-
cause they can purchase better swine
for the same money or for the same
quality for less money; because theirs
is a salesman plan and involves big
profits; because they will sell to
farmer whether he is ready for purebred
animals or not and it may thus mean a
detriment to the live stock industry.
Mr.. Campbell urges those who want
purebred hogs to get in touch with the
Farm Bureau and to purchase of breed.

The "old guard:n1 the republican
party triumphed again when it put
over Warren G. Harding for president
on the tenth ballot at the Chicago con-
vention on last Saturday evening. It
was early apparent that neither Wood
nor johnson could win, and when a cou-
pie Missouri delegates was shown to
have received $4,000 each, Lowden was
lost. With the release of the Lowden
delegates as per agreement with the
old guard' senatorial combine, Hard
ing was given the lead on the ninth
ballot and went over the mark on the
tenth, when the Pennsylvania vote
cinched it for the Ohio senator. The
platform is very long and colorless on
many questions and forgetful on many
others. Governor Coolige of Massachu.
seets was selected as president.
There appears to be little enthusiasm,
especially among the rank and file of
the party, in this section at least; for
the nominee.

Congressman Harold Knutson has

in the Sixth district. In recent let

part: 1T will not be possible for me

That is the sort Of Congressman
representing this district. In the
stressful campaign OF two years ago
he refused to leave his post of duty
to come back and look after his own
political welfare. In the heat of bat
tie he remained in Washington, faith
fully attending to the duties Of his
office, and the result showed that his
confidence in the good judgment Of
the people was we'll founded.

COAL SITUATION TO BE ACUTE, Is
PREDICTION.

Communications are being received
almost daily by the Board of Commerce
calling attention to the threatened
seriousness Of the coal situation as far
as the Northwest is concerned. A
letter from the Zenith Furnace Com
pany states that the lowest possible
estimate of tonnage required for the
Northwest is nine millnon tons Of soft
and two million tons Of hard coal. Less
han six months remain in which to get
this coal to the Duluth-Superior docks,
which means two million tons per
month over the Great Lakes between
now and December /. The communica-
tion urges that local civic organiza-
tions take this matter up with the
representatives and senators from this
district and with the governor, urging
that they go to Washington and bring
pressure to bear for the appointment
of a fuel administrator with the same
power as Garfield had.
Ralph E. Towle, formerly in the alb
stracting business in Little Falls, has
been heard from in business communi-
cation with the Board Of Commerce.
The communication is from Mr.. Towle
dS general manager or the traVellng de-
partment Of the American Express
Company at New York City, and calls
attention to a special tour or cruise
from Niagara Falls to Montreal which is
being arranged for by that company on
July 25, in connection with meeting
Of the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Tide
water Association, which will be held
at Detroit, Mich, July 1924. It is
possible that Little Falls will be repre-
scented at that meeting.
