AGED PIONEER RESIDENT
ANSWERS FINAL SUMMONS
Mrs. Katherine Dambach Passed
Away in This City Last Tues
day Night.

Another pioneer resident of New Um
and Brown county answered the final
summons, when Mrs. Katherine Dam
bach, nee Serr, passed away at the
home of her son-in-law and daughter,
Mr.. and Mrs. J. M. Haubrich, on
North State street, last Tuesday at
midnight. Death was due to dropsy
and ailments usually attendant upon
old age and followed brief illness.
While Mrs. Dambach had been ailing
more or less since last May, she was
not compelled to take to her bed until
the Saturday preceding her demise.
Deceased was a native of Rhodt,
Rhenlsh Palatinate, Bavaria, Ger
many, where she was born February
9, 1885. Coming to America with her
parents in 1854, the family spent
about year in Chicago and St. Paul

militarism, but that greater enemy
confronts us in British navalism
which must be combatted with every
power at our command. Rev.
Hughes also recalled that not a
single nation that fought on the
side of the Allies during the World
war had been granted self-determi-
nation, unless they had fought or
were fighting for it. In this con-
nection he dwelt upon the Irish
question and took issue with state
ments contained in British-controlled
newspapers in this country to the
effect that a majority of the Irish
people do not want to be free from
Great Britain. He claimed that
fully 80 per cent of the Emerald
Islanders desire their independence,
whereas at the outset OF the
Revolutionary war only about 60
per cent of the colonists favored
separation from the mother country,
while the remaining 40 per cent
clung to English domination OF
America. Ireland is geographically
separated from England and has
always wanted it's independence.
We Should Be Generous.
The speaker stated that some
people were prone to inquire why
we should concern ourselves about
Ireland's craving for independence.
He declared that we should be
generous and be willing that liberty,
freedom and independence be ex-
tended to other nations throughout
the world, and that it is our duty
to help Ireland, as we'll as any other
country that is seeking political in

1t is a new plan of settle
ment adopted by the
Wisconsin Coloniza-
ton Company.

Farmers and renters from all
over the West are focking in and
taking up these farms.
We have already placed 700
families in farm homes under
this plan, and we are now pre-
pared to take care of 800 more.
It is the opportunity of life
time for a man with little cash
to get started on a farm of his
own.
Our company gives the new
ssttler from 40 to 160 acres of
land, an attractive house, barn,
COW, pigs, chickens, clearing tools,
etc.
He can buy just the land, or
the land with buildings, etc., on
as small a payment as $500 to
$3.50.
After he moves on his farm
and starts making improvements
he has nothing more to pay for
three years.
After the three years are up
he is given 80 years in which to
make the rest of his payments
if he desires.

became the bride of her late husband,
Joseph Dambach, on January %, 1855.
The newlyweds wended their way to
New Ulm, making the long and tedious
trip to this city, which was frought
with many dangers, in a sleigh, There
were no roads at that time and they
were compelled to find their way as
best they could. Mr.. Dambach had
come to New Ulm in October, 185
from Chicago as one of the very first
white settlers locating here. The fol
lowing year he went to St. Paul to
claim his bride, with whom he had
previously become acquainted. Mr..
Dambach passed away February 5,
1891. -.....
Mr.. and Mrs. Dambach settled on a
farm in the town of Milford shortly
after arriving here following their
marriage. During the dark days of
the Indian massacre they came to New
Ulm, where Mrs Dambach assisted
in the care of the wounded at the
Dakota House. After the Sioux out
break they returned to St. Paul for two
years, making the trip with yoke Of
oxen, and then came back to their
farm in Milford, which they conducted
until retiring from active life 45 years
ago. New Ulm had since been Mrs.
Dambach's home and for the past two
years she has lived with her only
daughters family, Mrs. Haubrich,
who was the first white female child
born in New Ulm.
Some time prior to the massacre,
deceased had a narrowing experience.
While she was home alone with her
infant daughter, the roof OF their farm
house caught fire, and but for the
timely arrival of band of Indians,
who extinguished the flames, the little
home would have been reduced to
ashes. During that time Mr.. Dam
bach was busy hauling provisions from
the Twin Cities to New Ulm and points
as far west as Redwood Falls. This
freighting was all done with oxen over
the long prairie trails and he was
absent from home for weeks at time.
The white settlements were few and
far between which made travelling in
such primitive manner very tedious
and dangerous.
Deceased was charter member OF
the Christian Mothers Society of
Holy Trinity Catholic church here.
Aside from her only daughter she
leaves nine grandchildren and five
great at-grandchildren to mourn her de-
mise. She is also survived by two
sisters, Mrs. Mary Ahrens of St. Paul
and Mrs. j. P. Vogel Of this city.
Funeral services were conducted at
the Catholic church, Friday morning
at $50 o'clock, interment being in the
Catholic cemetery.

Rev. Hughes paid glowing tribute
to New Ulm for it's patriotic stand
ing during the World conflict, and
especially for having over-subscribed
it's quotas of war loans and war re-
lief drives.
Other Speakers.
Rev. John Burns of St. Paul also
delivered a timely and very interest
ing address on Patriotism and
Christianity. He dwelt upon the
fact that religion was very es-
sential feature in the work of re-
construction, and that 100 per cent
Christians are, as rule, 100 per
cent patriots, for the laws OF our
Republic are based upon the Ten
Commandments, which are the very
foundation of religion. Rev. Burns
also referred to the educational
facilities offered returned soldiers
by the knights of Columbus free Of
charge. He lauded this benevolent
project and urged the Knights to
support the movement financially
and otherwise Five members Of
the local Council are at present
taking advantage Of this opportunity
to broaden their knowledge. In re-
ferring to the present state of un-
rest in this country, the speaker
asserted that it required much work
and an exceedingly careful admins
tration to finally overcome this
condition..
Rev. F. S. Rant Of Springfield
spoke on beauty and said that only
civilized peoples really appreciate the
different branches of art, as we'll as
natural beauty. This characteristic
is not inherent in the savages.
Attorney James J. Quigly OF ST..
Cloud, state advocate of the Knights
of Columbus, talked briefly about the
donation of a statue of Lafayette
to France by the Order. This act
of patriotic gratitude was highly
approved Dy Jne speaker.

district deputy, and by County

Fighting Insects
in the Home

Insect pests in the home are a
menace to health and life and the
sooner and more theoretically the
campaign for their determination is
carried on the less work there will
be to do. Emma Gary Wallace in
May Good Housekeeping says:
eff for any reason, the family cat
or dog has brought fieas into tho
house, which have found a pleasant
habitation in the nap of your fovor-
tie carpet, vacuum-clean it thorough
ly, close up the room, and place a
fresh sheet of sticky fy-paper in the
middle of the floor with little chunk
of fresh meat in the middle. Or, if
you wish, you can cut the sticky fly
paper into quarters and put them in
different locations in the room with
the bait in the middle of each. Fleas
are attracted by the odor of fresh
meat and will jump to reach it. If
the f1y-paper is large enough so that
they do not make the island of food
at single bound, they will be caught
in the sea of the sticky surface about
it. A few days of this treatment will
be sufficient to catch them all"

of fruit and vegetables in the diet
of a people all the year around, has
asked for Today lectures and demon
strations by the Americans. Denmark
will call home her agricultural con-
suls this summer from all parts OF
the world for two weeks instruction
in food conservation to be given by
Mr.. Lund. Belgium and England al
so have requested the loan of the can
ming specialists.
The fact that in 1918, at time
when it was SO necessary that nothing
be wasted, the housewives and CLUB
girls in America were able to conserve
nearly billion jars of food has made
a deep impression on people in other
lands, who now are anxious to learn
how it was done.

French Like Our
Canning Methods

Last year France borrowed three
canning specialists from the United
States Department of Agriculture
| This unit taught a large number Of
agricultural directors and professors,
assembled for the purpose at the prin-
cipal French agricultural college, the
| drying. This year the Americans have
been asked to continue the demon
strations and lectures. One of the
unit is already there and the rest
sailed the last of May.
Instead of giving the instruction at
one place in France this summer,
short courses will be conducted in
different parts of the country at the
| schools where those who attended the
course last year have been teaching
American canning methods To facil-
itate the work, the French Govern
ment recently issued a bulletin which
gives complete directions for canning
by the American method The mater
ial for this bulletin, which is the first
of its kind to be published ia French,
was prepared by Frantz p Lund, 4
member of the American canning unit.
When the demonstrators went across
last year they took with them 30
units Of canning equipment, consisting
of pressure cookers, cans, both tin
and glass, can sealers and other arti-
Giles necessary in the work, because
many of these things could not be
procured in France This year, how
ever, this will not be necessary, as
the French manufacturers, seeing how
popular American canning methods
were apt to become in France, began
at once to manufacture certain Of
these articles. Inside of three weeks
after the school started last June,
one factory which previously had
organized, invented an aluminium
pressure cooker, and turned out a
thousand of them.
The American method of canning.

in the jar, is spreading fast through.

Rabies are Not so
Bad After All

Rabies or hydrophobia is a specific.
communicable disease affecting all
warm-blooded animals, including man.
The dog is especially susceptible and
because of his rowing habits is the
chief dissemination of the disease.
The bite Of rabid animal is not
necessarily fatal; the virus is esti-
mated to be transmitted in about 80
percent of cases. But when the dis
ease is contracted and not treated
it is practically always fatal
The Tasteur treatment prevents
many fatalities, but even with this
there is much anxiety, suffering hard
ship and expense.
Rabies can be transmitted only
by animals that are actually diseased
at the time There is no foundation
for the belief that persons bitten by
a dog which subsequently becomes
rabid may contract the malady.
This terrible disease is all too pre-
valent in the United States, in spite
of the fact that its suppression is COM
paraively simple. The problem is
solved when the rabid dog is clint
mated This is proved by the expert
ence of some other countries, notably
Norway, where the disease has been
entirely stamped out.
A similar result might be brought
about in this country, with the CO.
operation of the States, by % hcen-
sing all dogs, CD muzzling all dogs
not otherwise kept in restraint, and
(3) rigid INSPECTION and quarantine at
borders and ports of entry.

The Most Exclusive
Club in America

The most exclusive value in Amer
lea is the least known; it never meets
and it's members are always present
This paradox is explained in an al
ticle "The Lifers' Club" In the May
Good Housekeeping.
"The Lifers' Club consists of men
who must walk lock-step to the grave.
The grizzled graybeard who has spent
quarter of a century behind thick
prison walls and the eighteen-year-
old murderer who is just beginning
upon the bleak stretch of years that
lie ahead of him are it's members.
"The Lifers' Club was established
by the Salvation Army three years ago
in behalf of the men and women up
for always"
"The club is in essence an express
sion of the feeling shared by the most
advanced penologists and welfare
workers about all prisoners, including
lifers, at the present time"

FOR THE GROWTH OF CHILDREN

The growth element known as
"vitamine discovered recently in GER
tain foods seriously concerns our
health and life.
These properties that effect our
health and whose absence actually
brings about disease, are present in
some foods but absent in others.
Doubtless in the past persons ate foods
containing these substances instinc
lively 1t is known that animals
search for certain food when ailing,
and go long distances to obtain it.
Cats seek catnip with feverish ir-
tensity, but human beings are not SO
unerringly endowed with instinct as
are all other animals.
Scientists have studied and expert
mented the past few years with valu-
able results. They have divided
"vitamines" into two classes, called

found in butter, eggs, milk, etc. Water
soluble B is present in large amount
in vegetables such as lettuce, spinach
and other greens.
Milk is a life necessity. "Milk-fed
children make mighty men and wo-
men. Milk is secondary only to air
and water. 1t contains as it does no
other food the elements of growth.
Evaporated milk of high quality brand
is as rich in vitamine content as fresh
milk. Butter fats provide growth,
while lard does not. Oleo oils are
also rich in vitamines and so enrich
high-grade oleomargarine. Any set
of children that does not get a full
supply of these important foods will
become understood and undernour-
ished.

the great commercial interests in Cal
ifornia. If we have not understood
about vitamines in the past, we have
CROPPED after the knowledge by eat
ing such foods as seemed to keep US
healthy and eliminating those that
did not. For instance, bread has
been called the staff of life since Bible
times. 1t is not perfect food, how
ever, for wheat does not contain a
balanced proportion of all necessary
elements, but yeast is found to be
rich in vitamines. The amount neces-
sary to promote life and growth is al
most infnitesimal.

Some persons think that what they
DO with their money or what they
purchase with their money is not
any persons business says Richard
Spillane in the Philadelphia Public
Ledger.
They are mistaken.
A lot of persons are buying gaso-
line. Through gross waste this short
age is made more acute than it should
be. If not checked the price of case
line will be forced to a height that
will compel many persons to lay up
their cars.
The automobile is of great utility.
1t gives opportunity to many millions
of persons-men, women and children
to get out into the country to have
recreation and pleasures that other
wise would be difficult for them to OBJ
tain. 1t is a great agency in the pro-
motion of good roads. 1t is a great
agency, too, in the promotion of good
health. Anything that restricts its use
is of public concern.
Those who have studied the subject
say one-half a gallon of gasoline per
car is wasted today through careless
ness, through overuse of cars and
through useless mileage. This means
100000 gallons a day.
This has to be stopped or the price
of gasoline will stop the use of tens
of thousands of cars. 1t will stop If
you recognize the fact that anyone
who wastes gasoline is doing an in
iury to YOU whether you own car or
do not own one.
