Albert Lea Mimi, January 24.-At
Albert Lea Examiner Is to Cut Out
the meeting yesterday of the stock
holders of the Albert Lea Examiner
a nonpartisan daily established in
this city on December Is last, it was
unanimously decided to discontinue
The daily, which has been managed
and operated entirely by socialist
leaders of the To><nley party have put
out this publication thirty three
days. 1t. started out with sixteen pag-
es. 1t soon changed to an eight page
paper and then four page. The
stock was entirely owned by about
two hundred Nonpartisan league
farmers of Freeborn county. Reports
are to the effect that the experience
has cost the farmers hereabouts sew
eral thousands of dollars.
After { heated discussion, at TIE
meeting yesterday, the stock holders
voted by narrow margin to use the
machinery purchased for the daily to
get out a weekly Nonpartisan league
paper to start next week.
From the very start the local bust
ness men refused to support tie pa
per by advertising or by subscription
1t is the hope of the Townley crowd
to keep the weekly going until after
election.

Consigned; Success of Enter
prise Is Assured

The Blue Earth. LIE Suerr, Nicollet
Holstein breeders sale to be held at
Mankato, February "a, is certain to
be big success. Several of the live
wide awake breeders have already
consigned some of their good cattle.
These with the entire dispersal of
the N. p. Grass herd, now numbers
sixty three head.
Those who have so far consigned
are: F. H. Sohre & Son, Good Thun-
der; NARROW G Randall, Mankato; N.
P. Grass, Amboy; Schmidt Bros,
Minnesota Lake; T. NJ Nichols, Man
kato and; A. D. Mccormack, Garden
City. A few more good cattle are
needed, as the committee hopes to
have seventy head in the sale.
The sales committee is made up of
the board of directors of the local
club. They are working with the
secretary and sales committee of the
State Holstein Breeders association,
the sale being under the direct man
agement of the state association.
Minnesota Holsteins have a great
reputation throughout the entire
country Not OILY in the United
States but foreign countries have
been bidding high and paying high
prices for Minnesota bred Holsteins
Only short time ago, the South
African government purchased car
load of Minnesota Holsteins and the
Blue Earth Holstein association just
recently had an inquiry from the
West Indies.
Board of Directors Responsible. :.
The state board OF directors is re-
sponsible for guarding the good name
of the state association and the Hol-
stein breed of cattle, therefore they
are very careful as to the cattle and
sales they indorse and put their O
K. on.
The sales committee must first pass
on the cattle to be sold, then the
| rules of the state association must be
fully lived up to in the way of breed
| ing, breeding guarantee, soundness OF
animals, tuberculin test must be
made on each animal prior to the
sale, also a sixty to ninety day tu-
berculin retest must be allowed aft
er the sale to protect the buyers.
This is the kind of backing thai
will be given to the first Blue Earth
Holstein Breeders consignment sale
The local committee is much pleased
with the interest being manifested
by the business men of Mankato anc
other towns in the county, several O.
the bankers have expressed their de.
sire to help and assist in furnishing
funds to purchasers in the county
Also the breeders and members of the
Blue Earth Holstein association arr
giving their very best support wheth.

With this loyal support through.
