The Necessity of IT. r. TESTING.

We hear lot Of talk about the fool
ishness of T. B. testing. This talk is
unfounded in every respect. The farm
bureaus in this and adjoining counties
have put on campaigns for a more
general understanding about this dis
ease, which does so much harm. We
feel that in order to combat the dread
ed white plague we have to try to
clean out our own herds of cattle. Not
only cattle but poultry as well.
In spite Of the fact that we hear of
men losing a few head of cattle from
this disease still some persist in not
having their herds tested. Just re-
Gently one Of the local veterinarians at
Milaca tested herd of % of which 20
reacted. This as one example should
be enough for everyone in the county
to get busy and have their herds test
ed.
There are cases where this disease
has been transmitted to growing chill
dren from the milk. We have the
right to believe that this very thing
has happened in this county. Why
should we let any small thing like a
fee hold us back. Many in this county
have already awaited themselves of
the state testing, applying to have
their herd accredited. If you have
any suspicious about your herd call a
licensed veterinarian and have your
herd tested at once. The fee is small
compared to hospital and other doctor
bills.
A word to people living in town
buying milk: Ask your milk man if
he has his cows tested. If he hasn't
ask him to have them tested at once

THE POULTRY SCHOOL.
N. E. Chapman Conducts Large POul-
try School at Milaca; Members
Visit Lundine's Farm


Wednesday morning sixty represen-
tatives from eight townships in the
southern and central portions Of the
county attended the poultry school at
Milaca. N. E. Chapman, the state
poultry expert, was the instructor of
the day. Mr.. Chapman is a most
jovial gentleman who evidently knows
how to successfully handle such a
gathering as he faced yesterday
morning. While imparting much in
formation, he does not crowd the facts
too fast and keeps his audience in
terested and in good humor.
The five points that Mr.. Chapman
emphasized as being important in the
poultry industry are the feeding,
breeding, housing and general care of
chickens and the marketing end Of
the game.
Last winter representative Of the
Union visited G. A. Lundine's farm
and published an article covering in a
general way the first three of these
five points. If any farmer IS particu-
larly interested in chickens he should
visit Mr.. Lundine's farm where the
poultry business is being conducted
on a scientific basis.
Mr.. Chapman states that a good
layer in an average farm flock should
produce 100 eggs per year. The rec
ord in Minnesota is held by Barred
Rock that laid 800 eggs in 365 days.
1t was explained that the coloring in
various parts of the hen as in the beak
and the legs is good criterion of it's
egg producing ability. A hen with
white legs is generally a good layer
and Mr.. Chapman stated that farmers
commonly make the mistake Of sup
posing that the yellow legged hens
are their best layers. If a man is
raising chickens just for breeding pur-
poses, Of course he vents to save
those with yellow legs but the white
legs are the mark of a good egg pro-
Queer.
By grading the eggs and shipping to
an easetrn market, a poultry dealer
may obtain IS cents per dozen when
the price in the local markets is only
rs cents per dozen.
In the afternoon, Mr.. Chapman took
the members attending the school to

BRINGING 'EM IN.
Traffic Cop Gathering Up Auto Law
ViOlatOrs and Arraigning Them
for PenaliZatiOn.

lraHlc Cop Gatherlng Up Auto Law
Violators and Arraigning Them
for PenalizatiOn.
Ed. Maggart,- the traffic policeman,
is doing some fine work in teaching
speeders good lesson. He is on the
job all the time and is bringing in a
number Of automobile law violators
for penalization by justices of the
peace, and the fines imposed more
than pay the salary of the officer.
Among those brought in and mulcted
in fines during the past week by JUS
tice Bob King were the following:
J. F. Christy, St. Paul, exceeding
speed limit by running 40 miles an
hour, fined SIS and costs, which was
paid.
R. I. Gerrish, Minneapolis, exceed
ing speed limit by scooting along at
40-mile gait, fined SIS and costs.
Amount paid.
E. F. Norrgaard, St. Louis Park,
brought in on Sunday, and as the case
could not be lawfully disposed of on
that day the offender was requested to
deposit $25 with the court for later
appearance. After some hesitation he
decided to deposit the sum named and
departed. His case will come up for
hearing next Saturday morning.
Besides the above speeders were al
SC taken before justices in Milaca and
Onamia and fined.
In addition to his work of arresting
speeders the traffic cop is also attend
ing to other violations of the auto
mobile law, such as license evasion,
running without tail lights, etc., so
offenders had better be on their guard.
The territory covered by the officer
extends the full length of the Scenic
highway in Mile Laos county and he
also traverses other state roads and
laterals. So you had better obey the
auto laws or sooner or later he will
get you.

of Matters Which Come Up
for Consideration.
A regular melting of the Princeton
Commercial club was held at the arm
DRY on Tuesday evening with II men,
bers present. Treasurer j. A. Jorgen-
sen called the meeting to order.
1t being reported to the meeting that
the Civic Betterment club desired to
have the use of the Commercial club
rooms for it's meetings, it was, after
discussion, decided that SUCH request
be granted. It was also suggested
that the school house could be used
for this purpose.
First Vice Presiden, Nelson then
appeared and the presiding officer
called him to the chair.
The report Of the subscription COM
mittee of the community picnic was
submitted to the club and approved.
The matter of improvement work
around the south shore of the marsh
on the Cambridg Princeton road was
taken up and discussed by the club but
no definite action was taken.
It was moved and carried that the
entertainment committee be instructed
to prepare special program of some
kind for the next meeting Of the club
on October 10. The secretary was in
structed to prepare and insert in the
Sunday edition of the st. Paul Daily
News and Minneapolis Tribune no.
tees that a laundry is needed in
Princeton.
1t being reported to the club that
the local flour mill is about to close
down and is also for sale, committee
of two was appointed to investigate
the matter and the chairman ap-
pointed G. A. Eaton and J. A. N.Y.
berg on this committee.

J. J.. Hills Memory Honored.

Tribute was paid to the memory of
James J. Hill at Fair Oaks farm, St.
Paul, on Sunday, when his grave was
decorated with flowers by commit
tee of the Great Northern Railway
Veterans association. This is the an
nual custom of the association and it
shows the high respect in which the
great "empire builder" was held by
his employees.

agreement for disarmament.
Great Britain, Japan and the Unit
ed States have the greatest naval pro-
grams planned at the present. The
British navy's fighting ships are
counted at 1858, 442 tons, those Of the
United States at 1918 tons and of
Japan at 340,596 tons. The United
States has new ships planned that will
total 842, 100 tons, Japan 328, 400 tons:
and Great Britain 1880 tons. If
these programs are carried out, Great
Britain will have 1866 1922 tons, the
United States 1921 1882 tons and Japan
669,956 tons. Thus the strength of
the American navy will be almost
as great as that of the British navy,
ship for ship and ton for ton.
According to current history, France
is maintaining 100000 soldiers under
arms, Japan 100000, Great Britain
100000, Italy 100000 and the United
States 100000. Thus it will be seen
that this country has put the army on
peace-time footing, but it's naval
program is ambitious. There is con-
siderable doubt about the disarma-,
ment conference being able to curtail
the programs and the effects of such

THE ISLE STREET FAIR.
Fair Well Attended Despite Unfavora-
bic Weather; Excellent Dis
plays; Good Sports.

In spite of the rainy and cloudy
weather there was. large attendance
at the Isle street fair. Isle and Cove
certainly deserve much credit for the
excellent township fairs that they
staged this fall. The township, coun-
ty and state fairs are institutions that
should receive ali possible encourage
ment. Each has it's own place to
fill and each is of much benefit to the
community or territory supporting it..
Last week steps were taken, at Isle,
to organize tri-councy fair
association, comprising Mile Laos,
Aitkin and Kanabec counties. Such
an association would almost complete
ly cover the lake country and it's ter
ritory would form a logical unit with
which to work. !
The farmers III the vicinity* of Isle
had assembled for their. fair a fine
display of grains and potatoes. As
would be expected, there were some
unusually good specimens of corn. F..
C. Broker of Wahkon had splendid
individual exhibit of farm products in
Guiding a large number Of fruit en-
tries. The women contributed just as
much as did the men to the success Of
the fair. There were canned fruits
and canned vegetables in abundance
and most tempting displays of pantry
and dairy products. They also dis
played a large number of very fine
specimens of needle work. A most
creditable showing of flowers had been
assembled.
A considerable variety Of sports
was provided including races for the
boys and girls, pie eating contest,
climbing CREASED pole and similar
stunts. A ball game Saturday after
noon, single men versus married men,
concluded the program of sports. The
Isle band furnished music during the
two days of the fair. The moving
picture performance Saturday even
ing was followed by a dance with
music by Petrin's orchestra.
Saturday baby clinic was held un-
der the supervision Of DR.. H. Blau-
stone and Miss Leah Barskey, the
county nurse. Forty-two children
were examined, four of whom scored
100 per cent.

denomination and reelection as the
junior United States senator from
Minnesota. In formal statement he
indicates that he plans no personal
campaign and that his willingness to
serve is entirely contingent upon the
approval of Minnesotans of his past
work in the upper house Of congress.
Here is Senator Kellogg's signed an
nouncement:
During my stay in St. Paul have
been solicited by many friends to
write a letter making an announce
ment of my political plans. l did not
think it was necessary, but have
finally concluded to do so, and I write
this letter to the people Of Minnesota.
II shall next year be candidate for
the senate to succeed myself. Five
years ago the people of this state hon.
ored me with their confidence and
elected me to the United States senate.
I took my seat at the beginning of the
great war, and my term CT service
has represented one of the most criti-
cal periods in American history: Not
only have we been confronted with the
tremendous problem of war, but the
equally difficult economic, social and
foreign questions following the close
of the conflict. shall make no state
ments as to my services. I have given
to the state and the nation all of my
time and the utmost Of my ability and
experience. If in my public career
l have met the expectations and ap-
prevail of the people of this state,
should deem it an honor to receive
their endorsement. My duties are
such that I cannot leave Washington
to carry on a personal campaign, and
I have no taste or talent for wire
pulling or political intrigue. I am
perfectly willing to leave the matter
to the people of Minnesota.-F Frank
B. Kellogg" =.
Senator Kellogg's announcement is
the opening gun Of the 1922 campaign,
which is expected to rival the 1920 con-
f1ict in activity and interest in conse-
quence of the Endorsement conventions
which will be held in the spring.
A political precedent has been es-
tablished by Mr.. Kellogg in his leav-
ing St. Paul on Monday night for the
reconvention of congress without man,
ing a manager, opening headquarters,
selecting a campaign committee or
making plans for the preconvention
primaries next March. This will make
the wiseacres sit up and take notice.
Senator Kellogg was elected to the
senate in 1916 as the result of an in
sistent demand for his candidacy by
republicans of the state initiated by a
call sent out by the republican editors
from all parts of Minnesota.
In the senate he has been prominent
in agricultural legislation designed to
protect the interests of Minnesota
farmers and as a supporter of the
many remedial policies now exempli-
fled by President Harding. Taking
into consideration the excellent and
conscientious work he has performed
both for the state of Minnesota and
the United States, there is no appar-
ent reason why he should not be elect
ed to succeed himself. In every par
ticular Senator Kellogg has made
good.

ROAD is NEARING COMPLETION.
From Atlantic County Record:

With favorable weather the concrete
work on the new Mays Landing-Pleas-
antville Road will be finished in two
weeks and the entire paving will be
completed early in November. The
county may endeavor to arrange with
the contractors to have the road open
ed to traffic when the paving is com
pleted, although quite a bit of work
will remain to be done filling in the
shoulders and erecting guard rails,
work that will probably take a month
to complete. Quite a number of curves
and grades have been eliminated and
from Testers place to Pleasantville
the road runs in a straight course
The concrete base is now laid as far
as the peach farm" and the warrenite
is laid to a point this side of the
Bacon place. All who have been over
the road declare it is unquestionably
the finest piece of paving in the state
and it will undoubtedly prove the most
popular drive out of Atlantic City.
There is no doubt that the route
through Pleasantville, Mays Landing
and Egg Harbor will be a better one
than by way of Absecon and the new
meadow boulevard.
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1921-10-22

1t is now up to the newspapers of
the country, the home town papers, to
see the wonderful possibilities of such
a week, where in every locality read
ers will be asked to subscribe for the
local weekly, and in addition to the
home town paper where they We're
born-if they were not born where
they now live.
In this way, every home town paper
will help every other home town pa
per, and by concentrating the efforts
to one week, or three or four weeks,
the home town paper will receive the
publicity it is entitled to.
The home town paper is eve ready
to boost" for the other fellow, to
print item after item about this and
that kind of a day or week-the time
has come for it to boost and blow its
bugle for itself, to print several col
umns about itself and all home town
papers, TO put on a campaign of pub
licity, and take advantage of what
other papers will do.
In other words, throw its hat into

get it somewhere instead of sitting on
the side lines and hollerin' for the

HUMANITY'S REAL NEWS

OUR READERS WHY THERE'S

1t is a notable fact that with all the
wonderful things that have been writ
ten about the so-called country news

their possibilities, or what an influ-
ence they are in the world.
1t is also a notable fact that very
few of the readers of those papers
realize what a loss it would be to them
and to the world if the country pa
per" should cease to exist
The large papers, with immense cir
culations, tell of world happenings"
as they understand them, and display
heads telling of the latest scandals,
prize fights, and the m~isfortunates of
humanity.
But, it remains for the local pa
per-" the country weekly" the home
town paper" to really give the news
of the world, or that of Mr.. Common
People and his wife.
1t is time that the country newspa-
per should do something to place it.
self on a higher plane, and also make
some noise. Just one paper to start
something would not amount to much,
but if the $4,000 country papers would

go around the world would be the re-
suit.
