REV. CROMER WELCOMED
TO OLD PASTORATE

Rev. J. c. Cromer, former pastor
of the Congregational church of this
city, preached Sunday morning in
the church, and was greeted by a
goodly audience, many of whom were
former parishioners. Rev. Cromer's
subject was "What is Religion?"
Rev. Cromer breaches with his old
time fervor and eloquence. He spoke
of his deep appreciation of the oppor-
tunity to again visit the church and
people, and of the tender emotion
provoked by the solo that was rend-
cred by Capt. c. C. Duff, who while
he was pastor, sang in the choir, and
whose daughter, Mrs. L. B. Allison,
presided at the organ.

Feed and Other Supplies to Be Taken
Up Next.

County Agent H. E. Dennison has
recently forwarded to the State Farm
Bureau purchasing department orders
for nine cars, totaling over three hun
dred tons, of fertilizer for fall use.
Mr.. Buell., purchasing agent for the
State Farm Bureau bought number
of thousand tons from one of the
largest manufacturing concerns in
the country and is making a price to
the farmers through the County Farm
Bureau that is very attractive. With
in a few days order blanks for cotton
seed, oil meal and other feeds is to
be sent to the farmers and orders for
these materials will be placed direct
ly with the State Farm Bureau as
soon as they are assembled at the
local office. A great saving is to be
made on good many kinds of feed
purchased through this source.

Commission May Propose Changes
to Present Charter

Members of the city commission,
are considering the submission of
numerous amendments to the present
city charter, to the people at the
August primary election. Such amend
ments were talked of last winter but
were not placed before the people.
One of the amendments considered
would give the commissioners an in
crease in salary. They now draw
$1,000 the same amount they drew
in 1914. However, should the amend
ment carry, none of the present COM
missioners could gain the increase
until after the expiration of their
present terms.
Another amendment would make a
majority vote only necessary to carry
a bond issue, instead of two thirds
majority. 1t is claimed that the two
thirds majority clause in the charter
permits the minority to hold back the
city's advancement.
Still third amendment considered
is one to divorce the board of health
from the commission, making the
board an entirely separate body. I'm
der the present charter the board of
health consists of the city commits
sion, health officer and city attorney.
1t is felt that because of the press of
other matters, health board affairs
are neglected.

OVID & SHAFTSBURG ORGANIZE
COOPERATIVE ASSOCIATIONS

During the past week meetings of
the Ovid and Shaftsburg Farm Bu-
reau Locals have been held for the
purpose of organizing cooperative
elevators. About seventy-five farm
ers from Clinton and Shiawassee
Counties met at Ovid on Monday
night and completed the preliminary
arrangements for the purchase of a
large elevator, and feed and flour
mill. Loans of approximately $1O,-
600 to purchase the plant were made
at the meeting. The completion of
the deal will give farmers in the ~yicin-
ity of Ovid one of the largest and
most complete plants in this part of
the state.
The Shaftsburg Farm Bureau Lo-
cal has decided that place of busi-
ness is needed for their members, and
at a meeting held in the town hall
on Thursday night it was decided to
take the necessary steps to provide
suitable plant. The details of the
plan are to be worked out by the
Executive Committee of the Farm
Bureau Local.
These efforts along marketing lines
are the direct results of the interest
created through the Farm Bureau
membership campaign conducted last
winter. 1t is very evident to those
in close touch with the situation that
it is but a question of few months
in counties where the campaign has
been conducted before practically all
the buying of supplies and the mar
keting of products will be carried on
through the Farmers Cooperative
Associations.
