Ldanbefton Boys
Bake Best Bread
WIN KONORS OF SOUTHERN
MINNESOTA IN CONTEST
HELD LAST MAY.

The Lamberton Bread Baking team,
consisting of three boys, won honors
for Southern Minnesota nethe contest
held last May and are now the cham
pion bakers of eight counties. The
boys are Lawrence Jones, Captain,
Douglas Duncan and Hugh Robinson.
The team is class B team, having
had no instruction from a home econ
omics teacher and their coach is Miss
Blanche Keller of Lamberton, junior
in the high school. Miss Keller is
herself county, district and state
bread champion and has evidently the
happy faculty of imparting to the
teams she coaches much of her know
ledge and success.
This team will, because of it's win
ming, attend the 1921 State Fair in
September, each member having all
his expenses paid. Here they will
compete with other district winners
for the state championship. There
are six districts in the state and there
fore there will be six competing teams
in the Glass B Contest. It is proba-
BILE that they will also demonstrate at
the Redwood County Fair. The boys
are also eligible to compete in the
special peach short-cake demonstra-
ton at the State Fair.

gain the best advertisement. Would
like to have the inclosed add printed
in your paper for two weeks for a
trial. It is usually the young fellows
in the rural and smaller towns who
have the money for such things as the
city boys don't have the saving habit.

and have a few prospects of which
three are girls. We have five ships
in flying shape and have two for in
struction use only. l have an expert
mechanic in charge Of the instruction

eve are also preparing to do aerial
photography and are prepared to
handle Fair and Carnival Exhibitions.
OF course the aviation game is in its
infancy at present so we are trying
to interest the young men into getting
into the game so as to reap the harvest
when the game comes to its own. We
turn the student out ready to fly his

Morgan Stages
Bank Robbery
SHERIFF. .KISE NABS ONE SUS-
PECT EARLY SATURDAY MORN
ING. TWO MAKE ESCAPE !
(By Morgan Correspondent


Excitement ran high here early
Saturday morning when the citizens
of Morgan were awakened at half past
three, by the burglar alarm of the
Farmers and Merchants Bank. A num-
Der of men arrived at the bank
shortly after the alarm was first
given, to find that an entrance had
been made through window. IN the
rear of the bank building. A search
was Immediately made and in very
short time a man was seen stealthly
sneaking behind the oil tanks near
the depot and to enter corn field
back of the Will Root home. A posse
was formed and the corn field was sur
rounded and a search was made for
the robbers.
The man was tracked through the
corn field into grove on the j.
Shank farm, and he was soon appreh-
ended partially concealed in brush
heap in the grove. Irvine Otto and
R. C. Breed ordered the fellow to put
up his hands and come out from his
hiding. He gave himself up without
trouble and was handed over to Sheriff
Kise, who appeared on the scene soon
after being notified of the attempted
robbery.
When questioned about the affair
the fellow stated that he acted as a
watchman for three other fellows
who were doing the job. The other
fellows. he stated, made an escape IN a
Ford car and consequently he was left
TO pet away as best he could The fell
low is a tough looking specimen. He
kept the crowd from further search,
when without doubt the other fellows
who were with him in the corn field
made their escape. After being ques-
toned he was taken by Sheriff klse
and his deputy to the Redwood jail. /.
II was found that the robbers had
gained entrance to the Sam Langueii
restaurant and helped themselves to a
bag of loose change amounting to ap-
proximately five dollars They also
carried away a bottle of milk, loaf
of bread and some doughnuts. They
secreted this loot, together with new
revolver, on the railroad tracks near
the Bernard Blomke farm half mile
out of town; wrecking bar was found
near by.
The Stienke Seidle hardware store
was also broken into and the contents
of the money drawers were strewn
over the floor. Only one dollar and a
half was the sum taken from the cash
register. The thieves tried to break
into the safe but spoiled the combina-
ton and the safe is damaged but in
tact. It is the opinion here that the
fellows are hoboes who arrived here
in box cars and it is thought they are
the same fellows who entered a store
at Evan a few nights ago. Another
bag of money was found in stump
in the Breed Grove where the robbel
threw it when the posse closed II
around him. This bag had Ghent
Minnesota printed on it and undoubt-
edly the gang had been working there

Doctors Seek Writ
to Regain Standing
BROWN, REDWOOD PHYSICIANS
PETITION FOR RE-INSTATE-
MENT IN STATE SOCIETY.

AS a sequel to the alleged disloyal-
ty Of DIR. L. A. Fritsche of New Ulm
during the World War, physicians
and surgeons of Brown and Redwood
counties were in court Tuesday ask
ing mandamus to compel the Min
nesota State Medical society to re-
instate their county organization,
which, it is alleged, was suspended
by the state society because of the
failure of the local society to expel
or discipline DR.. Fritsche
Through II. III. Flor, attorney, the
members of the county medical so
ciety, embracing Brown and Redwood
counties, today obtained from Judge
O. B. Lewis in st. Paul district court,
an order to show cause why the local
medical society should not be rein
stated.
The order was made returnable on
the first special term day of the court
next year, the first Saturday in Sep
tember.
It is cited in the petition filed to-
day in behalf of the society of Brown
and Redwood counties, that the State
Public Safety Commission investigat-
ed alleged acts of disloyalty on the
part Of DR. Fritsche in 1918, and from
this arose resolution by the state
medical society to the Brown and
Redwood counties society to try Dr..
Fritsche, and this was done.
The result of the trial was that DR..
Fritsche was found not guilty, but
the state society, it is alleged, over
rode the verdict of the local society
and suspended the entire county So
ciety. Physicians alleged that prac-
tically all of the members of the two
counties were free from any charges
of disloyalty and are men of standing
in their profession.
They allege that the action of the
state society has worked hardship
on individual members in that insur-
ance organizations will not employ
physicians as medical examiners un-
less they hold membership in some
established medical society of stand
ing, and, as the society is under the
ban, the members cannot act as ex-
aminers for insurance and other So
cieties, and also that many worthy
physicians and surgeons, members of
the society, are under a cloud as the
result of the action of the state So
ciety because of the grievance against
one member Of the society.-St. Paul
Dispatch, July 5th.

Der of razor and knives.
While the citizens of Morgan rejoice
in the capture Of one man implicated
in the affair, they lament the fact that
the other fellows made an escape An
other search was made between nine
and eleven o'clock Saturday morning
when another fellow was reported to
have been seen prowling around the
Root orchard. The man captured does
not answer the description of the fell
low whom Donland Bosel shot at early
in the morning It is evident that at
least two made their escape.

Credmeries Save
Cash on CARROTS
COOPERATIVE HIP5MENT
PROVE JOINT MARKETING
SUCCESS, SAYS AGENCY.

Minnesota creameries which have
co-operated in shipping dairy pro-
ducts in carload lots during the last
few weeks have saved from 80 to 45
cents a hundred pounds in freight
charges, A. j. Mcclure, organization
manager for the new statewide CO.
operative creameries association, said
today.
Saving in freight costs through car
load shipments proves that co-opera-
ton on a statewide scale, as planned
by the new association, is an assured
success, he said. Mr.. Mcclure and ]
S. Jones, organization director for the
Minnesota Farm Bureau federation
are mapping a campaign through
which in the next six months, every
cooperative creamery in the state
will be given a chance to join the Min
nesota Cooperative Creameries As
scociation, Inc.
"Service is the purpose of the new
marketing agency" Mr.. Mcclure said
"The first work of the organization
will be to help the creameries to fed
crate in district unitss. Creameries
| within these districts will work to-
gether in cream grading, to improve
the quality of butter manufactured
standardize the butter, and ship II
carlots. Every district will have its
local government, with a member or
the state board Of directors. Policies
and activities Of the state agency vii
be controlled by the districts.
The new state agency, far from
being designed to take away influence
from the local cooperative creamery
is working solely toward giving ths
local creamery more power and {
stronger voice in the marketing o.
dairy products.

"Get Results" is the order issued by
Charles M. Babcock, state highway
commissioner, on starting out the big
army of road patrolmen now at work
patching, me11ding and smoothing
trunk routes in this and virtually all
other parts of Minnesota.
"You are coming in daily contact
with highway users and your efficiency
and courtesy will have an important
bearing on public estimation Of high
way work in general, the commission
er added. keep your section smooth,
for riding quality is the commonest
test of highway"
Announcement that virtually all
trunk highways have been taken over
by the state for maintenance and i'm
provement is of great importanc to
the different communities. It means
that the counties are relieved by the
state of the big burden of building and
keeping up these costly roads which
heretofore have taken the bulk of
available road money. Elimination of
this heavy expense leaves local auth
critics with almost as much money
and considerably more time to devote
to the improvement Of the laterals or
feeders roads.
The state, assuming responsibility
for the trunk highways, has set aside
So, 900, 900 this season for maintenance
work and is depending upon this fea-
ture of the general plan to bring the
first noticeable benefits under Amend
ments No. to all parts of the state,
according to W. F. Rosenwald, chief
maintenance engineer.
The last official bulletin showed
,O09 patrolmen on jobs and the num-
Der is being increased to about 1900
to put one on each smile average sec
tion of the 7,000-trunk highway sys-
tenn. This big, statewide organlza-
tion, built up and put in the field IN
less than sixty days, affords addition
al evidence Of the determined efforts
of highway officials to spread early
benefits under the Babcock plan. The
same speed has been shown by the
new construction department which
has placed more than 100000 OF I'M
provements under contract and is
speeding action on many other pro-
iects in scattered sections of the state.
Five or more Minnesota cities can
not collect state reimbursement for
paving laid on trunk routes inside
their limits, Attorney General c. L.
Hilton ruled recently in an opinion.
More than S5O0,000 of improvements
are involved, O. L. Kipp, chief high
way construction engineer, estimated,
and the cities hit include Alexandria,
Osseo, Pipestone, Slayton and Worth
ington.
Commissioners Babcock is given sole
jurisdiction over both the routing and
of trunk highways both
inside and outside cities and villages
on the state system, numerous local
authorities throughout Minnesota have
been advised. The first considerations
in selecting routes through the cities
and villages, Mr.. Babcock, said, will
be the convenience Of traffic, public
safety and the expense involved IN
each case. But when possible, he add
ed, trunks will be designated to give
visitors most favorable impressions
of Minnesota's attractive towns.
