The writer recalls how, about As years
ago, she, together with Mr.. Pillmeyer
and a number Of their cousins al happy
and care-free youngsters then! gathered

general good time But how changed
the conditions are now, especially as a
result Of the terrible World war! In
consequence of the rigors imposed upon
the civilian population by the bloody
conflict, the Viennese are slowly, but
surely, starving to death. The most es-
.sential necessities are so scarce that they
cannot be obtained at any price. But
with renewed hopes the people are look
ing to America for assistance, which,
through the generosity Of those in a
position to help, will be Forthcoming in
the not too distant future.

RADICAL CHANGE
POULTRY JUDGING
COMPARISON JUDGING WILL RE-
PLACE THE OLD SCORE
CARD SYSTEM.
BROWN COUNTY POULTRY ASSN.
PLANS BIG EVENT FOR
NEXT YEAR.

An important change in the method,
of judging fowls at the annual poultry
shows Of the Brown County Poultry
Association was decided upon at the
annual meeting Of Association members,
which was held at Sleepy Eye, Thurs
day evening. Comparison Judging was
inauguarted in place of the much slower
and more unsatisfactory method Of score
card Judging, which has been in vogue
heretofore. The new method is en-.
ployed in all of the larger poultry shows,
and, inasmuch as it is expected to make
the Brown county show, to be held at the
local Armory next year, a top-liner, anti
quated methods had to be replaced by
modern ones to save time. Heretofore,
under the score card Judging method,
it required two or three days before the
winners could be announced. According
to the new method, the prize taking fowls
will be known at the end Of the shows
first day.
1t is proposed to make next years
Brown county poultry show the biggest
| and most successful event Of its kind in
Southwestern Minnesota and plans look
ing toward this end are already being
made. The officers have resolved to
accomplish this goal, and>it is now up
to the members to interest every poultry
lraiser in the county in the coming show.
A large number Of non resident poultry
lfanciers are expected to send representa-
tive exhibits of fowls for the event.
Officers Elected.
At the Sleepy Eye meeting, Thursday
evening, the following officers were
elected for the ensuing year, President,
Jos. Karl, New Ulm; vice president, r. G.
Neudecker, Sleepy Eye; secretary treas
urer, VIM. Lindemann, New Ulm; super
lintendent, JAG. A. Vetter, New Ulnn;
executive committee, Herman r.. Raabe,
Mrs. A. H. KLEIN and JAG. A. Vetter,
all Of New Ulm.
1 $50 in, Treasury.
! The annual report Of Secretary Treas
urer Lindemann was very gratifying, as
| it showed a balance of $50 in the Asso-
ciation's treasury, after all expenses in
connection with this years poultry show,
which was held at Sleepy Eye, had been
paid. It was decided to purchase adj
ditional show coups for this amount for
use at future exhibitions.
The following New Ulm poultry fan
ciers attended the annual meeting: Jos.

~
Three local stores changed hands
during the course of the week as far as
their proprietors are concerned. All
young men take charge Of the three
well-known enterprises which for years
have contributed to the business life of
the city.
It was known for, several weeks that
Paul Hackbarth intended to sell his shoe
store on. North Minnesota street when
he became interested i4 the Buenger
Furniture Company which was then
being formed. He sold his store to
Henry Dahms, who, has been working
for him in the store for the past twelve
years, and VIM. A. Lindemann, who for
eight years was employed in the Office
of the Eagle Roller Mill Co. They took
possession Of the store on Monday. Both
are young men of excellent qualities we'll
fitted for this enterprise and it is generally
anticipated that they will be successful
in their undertaking.
Mr.. Hackbarth has conducted his
store at the present location for the past
fifteen years. The name of the shop
under the new management will be The
Hackbarth Shoe Store.

SECURES STATE RIGHTS
ON MERCANTILE DEVICES
VIM. A. Pfeferle Will Dispose Of
Wrapping Paper and Paper Tape
Printing Machines.

VIM. A. Pfeferle of this city secured
the Minnesota state rights for the sale
OF two very practical devices for mercan-
tile use, during his brief business sojourn
in Chicago last week. One of these
devices is known as the De Luxe paper
printing machine, which prints the name,
business and other lettering on wrapping
paper while the latter is being unwound
from the roll for use. The other is an
auto tape printing machine, which
similarly prints the name, business, ETC.,
OF merchant on paper tape used in place
of Irvine to fasten bundles.
Mr.. Pfeferle has associated with him
self Jos. Welter, who just recently com
pleted commercial course at the Man
kato Commercial College, and they have
leased temporary storage rooms on the
second floor of the Ottomeyer block,
over J. M. Meyers jewelry store. The
new firm will be ready for business about
May l.
The local business will consist prin-
cipally in sub-leasing county rights in
Minnesota to district distributors and
employing local agents to dispose Of the
machines, which can be applied sue
cessfully in every mercantile endeavor
where wrapping paper is used. From
all appearances it is good proposition
and should prove money maker for
Messrs. Pfeferle and Welter. We wish
them unbounded success in their new
venture.

Take Over Grocery.

- "A >iii14Adi ucdl WAS lllduc IdSG odluTudy
when the Purity Grocery on North Min.
nesota street was purchased by Adolph
Sandman and Oscar Wachter, also two
young men who are known as hard and
efficient workers. This store was owned
by Il. W. Engelbert and S. DUN for. the
past two years at the beginning Of which
period they bought it from A. j. Janka.
Possession of this store by the new
owners was also taken on Monday. They
decided not to change the name Of the
store which will be known as the Purity
Grocery as heretofore.
Mr.. .Wachter is an experienced grocery
man, having worked as clerk in VIM. A.
lPfeferle's store for many years. He is
thoroughly familiar with the business
and Adolph Sandman, will no doubt
prove an able and efficient partner. The
latter is at present employed as rural
mail carrier on Route 4.
Buy Fair Store.
Theo. Meier who recently bought the
Lyric Theatre has disposed of his Fair
Store at the corner Of Minnesota and
First North streets, The store was pur-
chased during the forepart Of last week
by Edmund G. Fritz & Co, who will
take possession on or about the 10th of
May. Edmund G. Fritz who at present
is. employed at the Buenger furniture
store will be sales manager of the store.
