BEST BUTTER IN WORLD
Made at Strawberry Point Creamery
According to Prizes Won.

Strawberry Point, Where
is the best butter in the world made +?
Butter made at the Strawberry
Point, Iowa, creamery was awarded
the grand championship prize at
the national dairy show.
Butter from the creamery has
been getting. top prices on the New
York market for number of years
and Buttermaker H. c. Ladage has
been leading up to the champion
ship place by a long series of rib
bons, cups and medals. Now the
top has been reached and the
Strawberry Point creamery stands
in class by itself.
1t has another distinction. 1t is
the largest whole milk creamery in
the United States.
Thirteen million pounds of milk
are handled annually. Twenty
two wagons under contract daily
collect milk from the 400 creamery
patrons who live within a radius of
seven miles of Strawberry Point
and arrive at the creamery with it
before 8 o'clock in the morning.
Every can of milk is inspected be-
fore it is taken into the creamery
and unless it is sweet, clean and up
to high standard is rejected.
The creamery building and equip
ment are the best that money can
buy. Electricity operates the separ-
ators, pasterurizers, churns and the
ice machine which manufactures ice
for the big refrigerating room. But,
most important of all, every inch of
the building and its butter making
machinery is kept Immediately
clean.

Two little towns of 3q spopulation

Oak, have shipped APPROXIMATELY
175,O00 pounds of corn each to Near

Winneshiek county should have
two or three carloads ready for ship

CORN AT LOWEST SINCE 1897
Iowa Elevators Offering Only 20
Cents Per Bushel for No.
Grade.

Des Moines, Iowa-Elevators thru
out the state are now offering farm
ers 20 cents bushel for No. a
corn, the lowest price since 1897, ac-
cording to C. ID. Reed of the local
weather bureau who has received
this information from several CORE
spondents.
Farmers who are paying post
war prices for everything they buy
have been driven back, not merely to
pre-war prices but to pre-Spanish
war prices said DR.. Reed. "The
lowest prices quoted for corn for
nearly quarter of century come
at a time when the farmer is least
able to stand the burden"
In his report to Washington this
week Mr.. Reed states that the hard
freeze of Oct. s dried corn rapidly;
that cribbing has begun on more
than half the farms of the state and
that the yield is excellent in the
western section but below expecta-
tions i'm the east. Corn worms have
been unusually numerous this year,
he said.
Large acreage of seeding fall
wheat than last year is reported
nearly finished. Harvesting of the
sugar crop has started with promise
of fair yield.

CIVIL SERVICE NOT CIVIL

That Civil Service is not civil as
far as the Democrats are concerned
under a Republican administration
is indicated by the way in which it is
handled in Washington. The old
way of distributing patronage
through the leaders of the party in
the several states is again in vogue
according to Mr.. Britton, correspon-
dent of the News and Observer who
scores Will Hayes, the Republican
Postmaster General who is exerting
the influence of his office to keep
Democrats out and put Republicans
in. Mr.. John NJ. Morehead is the
distributor in this state.
Mr.. Britton has the following to
say regarding the matter:
'It happens that there are num-
Der of nominations for postmasters
throughout the country in which
former service men and Democrats
who are ex-service men figure and
who are entitled under the law to
preference in Federal appointments
President Harding has set the rule
that this preference" is covered

The exact plan by which postmas-

may now be officially and fully un-

explicit language by Republican Ma

head. 1t happens that among the
candidates for Postmaster at Aurora
is Claude T. Allen, and that Congress
man Hallet S. Ward has filed with
the Postofiice Department a petition
in favor of the appointment of Allen.
In addition, in endeavoring to aid
Mr.. Allen Congressman Ward wrote

Should Mr.. Allen fulfill these
preliminaries. there will be no trou-

hence it would appear that Mr.. Allen
might as well feel himself out of it.

KEEP MOUTH FREE
FROM GERMS

Dentists and physicians everywhere
report that men and women are gross
" negligent about the care of their
teeth and mouths. People do not
seem to realize" says a noted health
expert, that the germs that thrive in
their mouths are responsible not only
for the decay of their teeth, Pyorrhea,
Sore Throat and similar maladies, but
also may lead to many of the more
serious diseases"
Experience seems to prove that the
only sure and safe way to guard
against these dangerous germs is by
the regular use of a liquid mouth
wash like Steroline. This famous
antiseptic mouthwash cleanses the
tiniest crevices of the teeth, combats
all the germs in the teeth and mouth
and soothes sore and bleeding gums.
People should not take chances with
their health. Spray the nose and
throat with Steroline, gargle it fire.
quently, brush the teeth with it regu-
larly and you are assured of protec-
ton against germs. Get a bottle of
Steroline from your druggist to-day

Florida offers an exceptional fine
