About 60 Farmers Gather al
Reeves Home and Spend En-
jOyable Time

The meeting of the Greenwood
Farmers club held yesterday at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Reeves, Greenwood township was
one of the best sessions in the his
tory of the club. In spite of the
extremely busy time, it was well
attended, there being about 60
present.
After the usual dinner hour had
been enjoyed, President Barber
Neal called the meeting to order,
opening with community singing,
lead by Mrs. c. l.. Brody, followed
By prayer by Rev. Turbin OF
Fargo.
Mrs. Brody was called upon to
discuss the consolidated school
question and outlined the essen
tial of the system and told of the
progress that was being made.
Recitations were given by Irene
Johnson and Vera Wurzel and a
vocal solo by Mrs. Anna Nye.
County Agent, G. l.. Brody dis
cussed recent Farm Bureau devel-
opments, paying special attention
to the Elevator and Seed depart
ments of the State Farm bureau.
He showed how the State Farm
bureau would serve the farmer
by purchasing clover seed direct
from the producers, thus saving
the purchaser the enormous raise
in price that usually takes place
between fall and spring.
The men then adjourned to the
farm of VIM. Wurzel where a
dairy cattle judging demonstra-
tion was conducted by j. A. Wal
dron, of the M. A. c. Mr.. Waldron
selected an animal that typified
the essential points of a dairy
COW and explained them to the
farmers. He pointed out both
the good qualities and defects
and showed how to select the best
producers by means of external
characteristics.
During the course of his re-
marks he also emphasized the
Importance of pure bred sires
and the best feeding methods.
After the judging demonstration
trip was made to the wheat
demonstration on the farm of
Mr.. Wurzell, ST., at Fargo, where
six different varieties are being
tested side by side.
During this time the women re.
manned at the Reeves home where
Clara M. Waldron, home demons.
tration agent. gave a talk explain.

Increase of Pension

Congress has passed the Nc
Cumber-Fuller bill fixing a mini
mum of $50 month as pension
for veterans of the Mexican and
Civil Wars. Widows will receive
$50 a month. The increase in
pension has been made necessary
by the high cost of living. The
act is regarded by Republican
Senator's as the last general pen
sion legislation necessary in be-
half of those veterans. The pres
ent pension Of veterans is $3.50
and that of widows $25. Last
June there were 271,520 Civil War
veterans and 336,375 widows and
dependents on the list. Widows
and Veterans of the War of 1872
are also granted the increase.

BASE BALL

The annual ball game between
Emmett and Yale will take place
at the City Park at $3.50 p. m.,
Monday, May 31st. For several
years it has been the custom of
the Yale High School to play this
holiday contest on the home lot,
that they might have an .oppor-
tunity to secure sufficient finances
for the athletics of the school.
The local High School team is
playing a ten-game schedule this
year and is under considerable
expense. The team is playing
good ball this season, winning
four out of seven games played.
An outside pitcher is being ar
ranged for and Yale will place a
strong team on the field. Come
out and see a good game.
H. A. Williams was in Detroit
the past week purchasing goods.

Plan Something Fine
For the Two Big Days
July 5th and 9th Promise to Be
the Biggest Days Ever Put
On In This City

The dates for the big Caledon-
i'm celebration are only five weeks
away and from present prospects
it will be the biggest celebration
ever attemptedin this part of the
state.
There has been much unfavOr-
able comment over the action Of
the city council in turning down
the petition for the use Of City
Park for the celebration, but the
Association will do its best to
make everything comfortable for
their guests at Riverside. There
is a good we'll on the grounds and
q little grove to the rear and one
to the south where any family
Wishing 20 picnic can find lots of
shade.
The program is rapidly nearing
completion and those in charge
promise everybody the worth Of
their money in frst-class enter
tainment, ana we hope to be able
to print nearly complete pro-
gram next week.
One thing we are sure of is the
Henderson Juvenile Pipe Band,
the same bunch Of lads and lassies
who were with US last year. With
them come Alice Dunbar, queen
of lady comedians; Oliver Sinclair
famous concert tenor; Sam and
Dorothy Munro, in all the old and
new dances, and the former as
Canada's Juvenile Harry Lauder.
The athletic program will be
one of the biggest ever carried
out here.
For speakers arrangements
have been made to have Rev. r.
NJ. Crissman, of Port Huron; Rev.
Alfred Martin, OF the First Pres
byterian church, Yale, will also
give a little talk; Louis c. Cram
ton, Congressman from this dist
rict has promised to be with us if
his duties at Washington will
permit; the committee is cores
ponding with several others of
the states best platform men, and
expect to have one or two more
on the program.
A real fast base ball game will
be a feature OF each days pro-
gram, and lovers Of this game
are promised some real contests.
Then there will be the evening
concerts which will take place at
the park. These will be well worth
the cost of admission to the whole
two-days' doings.
Quite pumber have taken ad-
vantage Of" the advance ticket
sale, out the Association wishes
the response were more liberal.
These tickets are on sale at a
number of the business places.
and as soon as the present supply
is exhausted no more will be sold.
iGet yours now and you will not
only be helping to finance the
early expense, but you will get the
biggest amount of entertainment
for $1.00 ever offered.
