New Ulm review., 1920-08-04

Klossner was the scene of a big
gathering Sunday, it was the biggest
event that ever occurred in our burg.
The officials of the Klossner Cream
cry Co. decided to hold big picnic
on the creamery grounds which is a
nice place for picnic. Thousands OF
people attended the picnic, several
hundred cars filled up the town and
took up nearly all parking place. The
Bernadotte band furnished the music
in the afternoon, there were over 40
players, including several girls, the
band needs praise for their good
music which they furnished, in fact to
consider as they are mostly farmer
boys. In the evening Wilfahrt Bros,
John Fritsche and John Bauer all of
New Ulm furnished the music for the
dancers for which a big platform was
erected. In the vening the picnic
grounds were illuminated by electric
lights which were furnished by a
demonstrating electric plant which the
Ulrich Electric Co. of New Ulm
handles. Games of all kinds were
played. The Klossner creamery is
considered one of the best in this
section as it now has about 200 patrons
and also turns out first class butter
product. We wish to congratulate
the officials of the Klossner Creamery
Co. upon their success with their first
venture to hold a picnic and we hope
to see more such events. Lafayette

POTATOES AND CAR SHORTAGE

The prospects in the tral sporta-
ton situation fer the moving of the
potato crop, the harvest CT which will
begin in about fifty days, are far fro m
bright" says Otto l. Berg, superin-
tendent of the North Central agricul-
tural experiment station, Grand Rap
ids, Minnesota. "With a considerable
part Of last years grain crop still to
be moved and a new crop to be har-
vested and moved before and during
the potato harvest it is likely that the

potato growers Of the Northwest will
find it difficult to ship their crop to
market before winter sets in,'' adds
Mr.. Berg. In view of this situation,
Mr.. Berg suggests that potato growers
find ways and means to store their
crop on the fam or in local ware
houses, and advises that construction
should be begun at once in order that
proper storage facilities may be ready
by the time the crop is harvested.

STALLED on crossings and struck by
trains. The remainder IS per cent ran
INTO trains instead OF being run into.
In his plea for the cooperation OF
che aid of the automobile owner in
sverting accidents Mr.. Clancy has
pfaced some facts we'll worth bearing
In mind before the public. Few peo-
pie ever take into consideration the
dact that a passenger train, running
eF full speed, quarter Of mile away

Is seconds, and that it requires a
mere 80 seconds for the train to cover
q half mile.
In the opinion Of Mr. Clancy few
facts such as these borne in mind will
prevent numerous accidents.

Bringing it down is by thrift on the

fight trusts, the speaker said that Con-
Gress faces new question, "a qnes-
ton whether the combination of the

Continuing, he declared he believ-
ed that labor unions are essential for

British Ships to Chile.

The British battleship Canada has
been handed over by Captain Tomlin,
on behalf of the British admiralty, to
Admiral Sir Louis Gomez of the Chile
an navy.
The Canada will now be known as
the Almirante Latorre. 1t was built in
England for the Chilean navy, but was
Communicated by Great Britain dur
ing the war. The Chilean navy has
also taken over the British destroyers,
Broke, Botha and Faulkner, and the
tug boat, Stole.
The destroyer, Broke, earned fame
in the channel in April, 1917, when II
and the Swift attacked and defeated
six German destroyers, sinking two of
them.
