This Little Story Has Many Side

Appleton Press.-The Wheaton
Gazette-Reporter told last week in an
interesting way of the experience of a
small town in this section and his
printing purchases. The. man it ap-
pears was decided as a great many
men appear to be, that his home
town printer could not do printing of
the kind he must have done. In con-
sequence he ordered it from Mime
apolis. The Minneapolis printer be-
cause of strike conditions was unable
to keep his plant in operation, but
was holding his customers by re-let-
ting his work to the small town shop.
The job of doing this particular
mans printing happened to come
back to the printer in his town. In
consequence the work was done in
| his own town but went to Minneapo-
| lis and back again before he received
| it,
The incident has a great many in
! tesesting sides.
1t shows for one thing how little
the individual knew about his own
town and what his own town printer
and fellow business man, could do.
| 1t shows how little the individual
knew about printing in general and
how little obligation he felt toward
supporting home institutions.
1t indicates that he is probably one
of those small town business men who
buys his and his family's wearing ap-
parel in some outside town at more
cost to himself than if he purchased
at his home stores.
And when he finds some other in
dividual buying something that he
sells in any town other than his owr
he talks Of mail order friends and the
menace of the cata1og houses.
The story has many sides.
1t would be interesting to know
how many business men can see them

The B. Y. Train Service.

Browns Valley Tribune.-We were
Informed yesterday that a petition
was being circulated here to have the
present train service changed-that
is, to go back to the old day passen-
ger service and a tri-weekly freight
and it might mean the running
of nothing but a mixed train, which
would get in when it could. We have
MT seen the petition, but we can't
conceive of how any one living in
Browns Valley, or on this branch,
would want to go back to those old
days of poor mail service, waiting
days for freight, etc., unless it was
from selfish personal interest. The
superintendent was here couple of
days, and that is no doubt where this
petition business started from. To
say nothing of anything else, we now
have an ideal mail service and that
is sufficient reason for not signing
this petition. And there are many
others.

AUTO BANDITS RAID
NASHUA STATE BANK
Blow Up Safe Get $4,000 And Make
Getaway In Automobile: Ex-
plosion Wakes Town.

Nashua people were aroused from
slumber Monday morning early when
bandits blew up the safe of the
Nashua State Bank and escaped with
$4,000. The thieves first locked the
operator at the 500 railway station
and a passenger waiting for train
in a box car, then cut all the wires
leading from town. A member of the
gang guarded the garage man who
had driven into Nashua while
the rest of the gang was working on
the safe. Although many residents
were wakened none gave very hot
pursuit, and the men made their es-
cape in an automobile left in a grove.
They met with a mishap at Whea-
ton when their car got stuck in a
ditch, but the accident did not delay
them long. Proceeding to the garage
they held up the man in charge, Sc
cured another car and made their es-
cape.
Before locking the Nashua opera
tor in the box car the thieves robbed
him of $3.50.

Biggest Fair Yet.

The gate receipts for the Stevens
county fair amounted to $3.50 ac-
cording to the fair officials We'd
nesday was the biggest day with ST.
$40 taken in, and Tuesday came next
with $1,4OO. On account of the rain
Wednesday night the crowd was
smaller Thursday, the receipts drop
ing to $40. The horse races were
pronounced the best ever seen at a
county fair. They cost $1,000 but
they were worth it to the crowds
that filled the grandstand and stood
packed against the fence around the
track to watch. The aeroplane which
was such a success as an amusement
feature cost $500. More concessions
were sold this year than ever before.
Officials report $1,50O was received
from the stands, booths and side
shows.

MORRIS WINS EASY
GAME FROM HANCOCK
Independents Knock Two Hancock
Pitchers Off The Mound In Best
Game Of Season; Score 90.

Morris baseball fans were treated
to rare swatting fest last Sunday
afternoon at the county fairgrounds
when the Independents hammered
two pitchers all over the grounds and
beat that aggregation by the score
of 9-2
Right in the first inning Hancock
started to score and things looked
bad, but the local boys tightened up
and from then on Hancock's chances
were shattered. A bad error in the
eighth inning was the only reason
for their second rHn.
The Morris boys seemed to have
their batting eye with them, and
when they needed hits they usually
got them. Buttell won the most hon
ors in batting, bagging a 3-base and
a 2-base hit. Johnson of Herman
who caught for Hancock got the long
est hit Of the day when he hit for
three sacks.
With the exception of two costly
errors which gave Hancock it's only
, scores, Morris played air tight ball.
! Much credit should be given to each
individual player on the Morris team
as each one was on his toes all the
time. {,
Buttell was effective, holding the
visitors to six hits and striking out
fourteen men. Willie of Hancock
only threw about four innings when
he withdrew. The skinned diamond
in front of the grand stand could not
be used as there were not enough
boats available in Morris for each
player to have one to stand in. The
men chose higher spot and laid out
grass diamond. Save for few
rough spots the ground seemed to
fill the bill.
There will be no more games play
ed between Morris and Hancock this
year. The games stand one and one
between them. This leaves the In
dependents who started late in the
season with four victories, five de-
feats and ene draw.
Let's get started early next year.
! What do you say boys?

Water Melons Home Grown.

This year for the first time water
melons have been grown in Stevens
county for commercial purposes. Cur
tbs Irwin has had beautiful patch
of melons this summer and has been
selling them to local groceries. The
flavor of melon right off the vine
is astonishingly unlike that of the
variety that is picked green and ship
ped a long way. Anyone who tastes
one off the Irwin vines can readily
understand why they were awarded
the premium at the fair.

DAIRY SHOW SPECIAL
WILL TOUR STATE
Trainload of ST.. Paul Boosters Will
Visit Morris Next Thursday,
H. September 20.

More than one hundred prominent
business men of St. Paul, including
jobbers, manufacturers, bankers and
cattle interests, on September %,
will speed across the state of Mime
sofa on National Dairy show special
train to take the message of the value
of the National Dairy show to he
farmer and the agricultural inter-
ests Of the state and the country.
This big educational exposition,
which will bring together the choic-
est dary cattle of the world and every
type of dairy machinery equipment,
will be held at the Fair grounds Octo-
ber to Is.
The Dairy show special will be a
de luxe steam caravan of ten Pull
mans, which will leave St. Paul at
o'clock on the morning of September
%. Along the sides of the cars will
be big banners, bearing the inscrip-
ton: Lets Conditional Dairy
Show, Minnesota Fair grounds, Oct.
8 to 16. Eighteen towns will be
visited according to the present sched
ule. They include Big Lake, Clear
Lake Becker, Sauk Rapids, Rice, Roy
alton, Flensburg, Swanville, Burtrum
Grey Eagle, Westport, Willard, Star
buck, Cyrus, Morris, Alberta, Chokio,
and Graceville.
At each town the trade and Dairy
show boosters will parade behind the
band to the public square, where a
concert will be given. The trade
boosters will visit their customers,
while the Dairy Show speakers will
give open air talks on the value OF
the Dairy Show to the increased pro-
duction and earnings of the farmer
| The final stop in the evening will be
at Graceville, where an open air con-
cert will be given, to be followed by
an outdoor meeting, where the big
dairy development work in which the
National Dairy show is engaged will
be explained. 1t is expected thai
Senator J. M. Hackney, chairman Of
the Northwest Dairy Development
Committee, and w. e. Skinner, gen
eraf manager of the National Dairy
Show, will speak. Following th'
meeting at Graceville the booster
will get aboard the special and star
on the return trip to st. Paul, wher'
they will arrive Friday morning.
This combination trade tour ant
Dairy show trip was inaugurated be
cause the st. Paul business men real
ize the Importance of the Dairy show
to the entire Northwest and that bet
ter COWS in Minnesota would meal
an increase of $17O,0OO,0OO in th'
buying power of the state, as tina
amount was added to the agricultur
! al wealth last year by cows averag
ing 146 lbs. of butterfat. The Ma
tional Dairy Show teaches the use o
500 to 900 butterfat producing cows
so the business men appreciate tha
with even 800 pound cows, whicl
should be the minimum, the produc
tion of the state would be doubled.
