Farmers Cooperation in Minnesota

Minnesota, it appears, leads the Union in the
number and Importance of it's farmers cooperative
Citations The State has nearly three thousand such
ciatons doing annual business of than hun
dred and eighteen million dollars Wisconsin follows
close second, and Iowa stands third.
A bulletin recently issued by the Minnesota College
of Agriculture the number of farm elevators at
three hundred and sixty Though these have but twenty
three cent of the total elevator capacity of the State
they handle than forty of the grain. The
six hundred and fortythree cooperative creameres

tions hundred and two cooperative Stores

there cheese factories lumber yards breeders assoc
tions testing associations fire insurance companies
potato shippers associations and farmers cooperative
buying clubs In the last years the total number
of associations has increased by eight hundred.
These associations did not have their birth in
politics. do they take than incidental interest
in such matters Better prices for what they SELL less
money for what they buy less of time money and
labor in marketing the goals they keep in
mind
Thirty years ago Wisconsin was overrun with pro-
moters of cooperative creameries generally
agents of selling creamery equipment About
fifteen hundred of these creameries were established
many of them nadvisedly that in 1893 State had
million dollars tied up in idle creameries Min
nesota was saved in large part this calamity by
warning posters and bulletins issued by the College of
Agriculture The result is that now while seventy-six
cent of the Minnesota creameries cooperative

Enthusiasm

Nothing great has ever been achieved without en-
thusiasm
Men do what they like best
Most of the really big things being done by
who really don't need the money. Joy work is well done
A man will succeed in anything for which he has
a real enthusiasm.
He who sits still and does only what he is told to do,
will never do big things.
The good work you do, the more enthusiastic
you will be-
Enthusiasm gives life what is invisible-and for
tune follows close it's heels.
Cultivate and strive to attain this priceless gift; it
you the goal and close your eyes the
roughness of the road.-Selected.

Callison-Corley.

The Advertiser extends sincere
congratulations to the young bride
and groom of Rehoboth. Sunday af-
ternoon Mr.. Clyde Corley and Miss
Margaret Callison were married at
the Baptist parsonage in Greenwood.
Miss Callison is teaching the Reho-
both school and Mr.. Corley accom-
panied her to her home in Greenwood
for the weekend and they were mar
ried while there. Their nuptials were
a great surprise to their friends.
Both of these young people bear
greatly honored old Edgefeld names,
their ancestors having prominent
part in the making of history for
Edgefeld county. For the present
they will make their home with Mr..
Corley's parents, Mr.. and Mrs. W. G.
Corley.

Tribute to Bruce Zimmerman

On March 18th, Mr.. Bruce Tim
norman left his earthly home to take
up his abode in mansions not made
with hands, eternal in heaven"
His beautiful Christian spirit and
his submission to his situation, ply
sically, was beautiful to behold.
All that knowing physicians could
do, all that loving father, mother, sis
ter, brothers and devoted kinship,
with large number of neighbors and
devoted friends service was lovingly
rendered.
"But, he saw hand we could not see
Which Ibeckoned him away;
He heard a voice we could not hear
Which would not let him stay"
His precious body was laid to rest
in the Red Oak Grove cemetery
among ferns and flowers that were
placed on his grave-where the soul
of the noble, gentle, kind Christian
young man finds the city of God with
gates ajar and welcome from the
Father and His angels.

Lasting Debt of Gratitude.

1t was said by some unthinking
person in the long ago that Corpora
tions have no souls" But over and
over again it has been proven that
corporations, rejecting character and
quality of the men at their head, are
generous and publicspirited-much
more SO than many individuals. The
Addison Mills easily belong to this
class, for this corpoation has proven
to the people of Edgefeld that it is
not narrow, sordid and selfish. 1t is
willing to spend and be spent for the
good of the entire community.
Not many months ago Mr.. T. A.
Hightower, the very capable and pop
ular superintendent of the mill, saw
ed large number of bales of cotton,
and possibly the depot, from destruc-
ton by fire. He called out his fire
company and heightened the hose so
as to reach and extinguish the burn
ing cotton on the platform near tne
depot. He did this cheerfully and
very graciously.
Early yesterday morning the fire,
which at one time threatened the de-
struction of nearly half of the busi-
ness property of the town, was con-
fined to the buildings in which it
originated by these same accommo-
dating fremen and these same mute
but friendly hose that threw water
upon the maddened flames from the
mill hydrant nearest to the town. 1t
was conceded by the hundreds OF
people present that the>Adidson Mills
saved the day for Edgefeld. 1t was

Lynch Drug Company and
Daitch Dry Goods Store
Burned.
Burned.

Tuesday morning about 6 o'clock
the watchman discovered a flame in
the Lynch Drug store and the alarm
was given at once. The fire made
such rapid headway, however, that it
was impossible to save any of the
stock or building. The flames spread
to the store adjoining the Lynch
store which was occupied by Abram
Daitch, as dry goods establishment,
and the store of w. w. Adams and
Company, just across a narrow alley
from the Daitch store, would have
burned had it not been for water
thrown upon the flames with the aid
of the long hose from the Addison
Mills. Had this latter building burned
the flames would have. spread un-
checked through half of the business
portion of the town.
The two stores that were burned
were owned by Mrs. Kate Lynch and
were insured for $4,000. W. C.
Lynch had the stock of drugs and
fancy groceries insured for $4,000
N toany of the stock was saved. Mr.
Daitch carried stock variously es.
timated from $35, 900 to $4,000, up
on which he carried $4,000 insur.
ance. He saved merchandise to the
amount of about $4,000 but this was
badly damaged.
The origin of the fire is unknown
Those who left the store last on clos.
ing the night before took every pre-,
caution to see that there was no dan
ger of fire from 1.-THE stove. Possibly
rats and matches caused the con,
hagration.

In 1541, after the dissolution of the
monasteries by Henry VIII, the abbey
church became the Cathedral Of Ches-

it dates from the twelfth to the six

In m0nastic times the abbey was
rich and of much Importance. The
"Chester mysteries" or miracle plays,
Were performed each year before its
gates, when a fair was held on the
feast of st. Werbergh, the patron
saint of Chester. A curious custom
prevailing among builders in the mid
die ages was that of carving grotesque
fgures-not only on the exteriors of
churches, like gargoyles, but often on
their Interiors. Perched coyly in a
corner high up on the cathedral, is
such Joke. known as 1.-The Chester
Imp"
A reminder of more recent days is
found in two flags draped on the wall
of the south aisle Of the cathedral
which were carried by the British at
the battle of Bunker Hill; not far from
these are displayed the colors of the
Chester Guards. borne at Quebec.
A wonderful work of restoration to
be seen in Chester is that in the
Church of st. John. This was ca
thedral church and dates from the late
eleventh century. 1t was occupied by
Norman bishop in 1913, but in few
years he removed the seat of his
bishopric to Coventry. The church as
