Wednesday, July %, 1920
The beginning of the end.

There was a heavy fog when we
started out in the morning and
good ocean breeze. We drove thru
some very pretty little towns and
country. Santa Barbara was especial
ly pretty. Here the old Santa Bar
bara mission still stands. The walls
are feet thru. No woman is allow
ed to enter the building. Our party
consisting mostly of women, didn't
stop. We came over the coast range
again into the San Fernando Valley
This is a noted valley for all kinds
of fruits and vegetables.
Then came over the Topango Can
yon Pass as it was the shortest way
home. The Pass was over Is miles
long with hardly a minutes straight
ride in it. Good paved road, wide
enough to pass anywhere. Nothing
like the road from Fall River Mills
to Redding. Came out right down on
the Ocean Boulevard. We all said
Santa Monica was the prettiest place
we had seen yet. And no bungalow
looked quite so nice as the little
Brown one on Euclid Ave. called
home. We had good supper under
our own roof that night and 4 good
beds for nothing, but sleep.
After a journey of 1912 miles in
eight days, we were glad to stop and
rest in as beautiful place as Santa
Monica.
See America, California first!

kept.
1t was o'clock when we reached
Salinas, so we stopped for the night.
The town was all decorated with
flags and bunting and all lit up for
us we thot but found out later that
they were having a fair and wild
west show. Everything and every
body in this town was Spanish. We
were very lucky to get rooms at all.
Tuesday, July %, 1920.
Left Salinas at o'clock. Drove
fast until noon to San Miguel where
we had lunch. 1t was very warm
here. The lawns and trees were dy-
ing for water. The Auto Park was
more than full of Fords. There was
no gas to be had in that town until
the next morning. So we hurried out
of town while the hurrying was good
as they told us we might get little
at the next town. It was after 10
o'clock when we got to Atascadero.
Went thru the big Printing Press
building and watched them printing
the magazine. Then we were taken
thru the new dehydrating plant
where they dry all kinds of fruit and
vegetables.
Left Atascadero after o'clock and
reached Santa Maria before 6 o'clock
Only one large Hotel in the town
and we couldn't get accommodations
short OF SIG. While we sat in the
car discussing it, a Mrs. Cate cross
ed our path, and told us of rooms
to be had within reason. We were
just in time to obtain the last rooms
in the house. Santa Maria was a
very pretty little town. Lots of flow
ers and pretty homes. But we were
not tired of travelling yet. Took on
10 gallon of gas at $3.50.

speaker was Geo. w. Hagbery Of Fergus
Falls, member Of the state bureau of
dairy and food inspection. He ex-
pressed pleasure at the spirit Of co.
operation shown at Randall and stated
that one Of the deciding factors when
a person is considering moving to a
place is whether the people Of that
community believe in cooperation and
practice it. He said he had heard much
comment in other places ABOUT the fine
new creamery built at Randall: Speak
ing of the manufacture Of butter, he
pointed out that the farmers can save
their cooperative creameries from $500
to $1,000 week by bringing in good
cream, as good cream makes good but
ter and good butter brings top prices.
At noon, big dinner was served to
all attending the celebration, numbering
over 400 people. The food was donated
by the business men Of the village and
the ladies.
In the afternoon, an interesting talk
on cooperation was given by J. T. Me-

At the suggestion of 8. c. Cochran. a
neat sum was raised toward the pur-
chase of seat for the creamery assem-
bly, room. It is the intention Of the
creamery company to permit the use of
this assembly room for entertainments
and meetings Of public nature, at a
nominal charge, and the people Of the
village therefore felt that they ought
to help pay for fitting it up.
Music was given throughout the day
by the Randall band, under the direc.
ton Of Prof. Rasicot.
A description of the new creamery
building will no doubt be Of interest to
the readers. It was erected at a cost
of over $4,000, and represents the last
word in creamery construction. The
structure is solid brick and concrete,
with steel doors and castings, making
it absolutely fireproof. On the first
floor are the butter-making room, re.
frigerator room, weighing and testin'
rooms, engine and boiler room. store
room for -four and feed, men 8 rest
room containing toilet and shower bath.
On the second floor is an assembly
room 36x36 feet, with a stage; store
room containing the buttermilk tanks:
ladies' rest room and toilet; cloak room
and check room.
The creamery equipment includes a
l,200-pound churn; two 50O-gallon and
two 3OO-gallon pasteurizers; buttermilk
pump to carry the buttermilk to the
storage tanks on the second floor; So
gallon starter can; 32-bottle tester; a
2O-horsepower engine and 3O-horse-
power boiler; Toledo scales of the lat
est type; 300-gallon hot water tank;
power operated water pump; 14x14 #.
cooler; 9-ton ammonia refrigerator sys-
TEN; hydraulic elevator from the flour
and feed room to the store room on the
second floor. There are two doors lead
ing in to the weighing room, so that
two weighers can work at the same
time. A separate driveway leads to
each door and the driveways are COW
cred so as to protect the patrons in
stormy weather. A revolving sample
bottle holder, an invention Of the but
termaker, Oscar Rydquist, is hung from
the ceiling in the weighing room. The
building is equipped with a Crane tilt
heating and ventilating system.
The Randall cooperative creamery
has been in existence for fourteen years
and has enjoyed steady growth. Last
year the butter production amounted to
over 100000 pounds and this year it
will be about 100000.

BELGIAN WOMEN HONoRED
For Assisting Allies in Getting Infor-
nation About German Gas Masks.

London. March Edwards have
just been made to two Belgian women,
Madame Clement and her sister, Nile
Marie D'Have, and posthumously to
their father, Theophile D'Have, for
giving to the Belgian general staff
details of the first German gas mask.
Posing as a pro-German, NJ D'Haye
was able TO send one of his daughters
to Havre, then the Belgian great head
quarters with design of the mask
concealed in her dress.
She went by way of Holland and
at the Dutch frontier she was searched
for four hours in vain, Had the docu-
ment been found she would have been
shot. Altogether Mile DHave crossed
the frontier 80 times until, at the
end of 1918, she thought it would be
safer to remain in Holland
So well did the father pose as
pro-German that his neighbors hated
him, and their behavior to him hast
ened his death from heart disease.
