NEW IBERIA GETS PURE MILK
State Live Stock Sanitation.

The Accredited Herd System means
that the Federal Government will
test, with tuberculin, herds Of cattle
until none Of the animals react, when
the tuberculosis free herds will be
placed on the list of Government Ac-
credited Herds, which proclaims to
the world that tuberculosis has been
absolutely eradicated from such herds
of cattle.
In the case of reacting animals
which have to be destroyed, compen-
sation is paid by the Federal Gov
eminent, the State, and the owner
The Government paying one-third;
the State one-third, the owner bear
ing the loss Of the remaining one
third This is the method in the ma
jority of the states, but, SO far, in
Louisiana, no appropriation has yet
been made to enable the State to pay
its third. This is matter that should
come before the next Legislature, SC
that fair compensation might be
paid cattle owners for animals that
have to be destroyed to entirely rio
the herds Of this insidious disease
When once this work is completed
there will be no more danger of ou,
people being supplied with milk from
| tubercular dairy cows.
This is the system being FOLLOWED
by the iberia Dairymen's Association
with such good results that it can b.
safely said that all milk now beins
purchased from members of that as

HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION.

Thursday night, at Elks Theatre,
probably the most enjoyable enter
tainment of many months was pre-
sented to iberia school patrons and
friends.
Prof. Bahon called the meeting to
order, and after few remarks, pre-
scented Edward Ewes, Glass Repre-
sentative, who spoke most interest
ingly on the History and Possibilities
Of iberia Parish. He was followed by
Jacob Landry, Faculty Representative
whose subject, Neglected Opportunity,
, was handled in a most scholarly man
| ner.
Supt. Porter then presented the di-
plomas to the 16 graduates. Supt
Porter's remarks were Of such imp
ortance that we shall make them the
basis of an editorial in future is
sue.
1t would be impossible to mention
in detail the large and varied pro-
gram making up the Class Night Ex
ercises, the second part Of the enter
tainment, but we must say that eve
ry one enjoyed it greatly, and fol
ourselves we must state that in our
opinion it is the best program put or
at the Elks, of similar nature, in q
very long time. The teachers and the
pupils are to be congratulated.

Had Birthday Party.

Last Monday was little Miss Juliane
Manke's ninth birthday and to make
the occasion more complete, Juliane's
mother, Mrs. Fred Manke, sent word
to nine little girl playmates of Ju-
lanes to come over to her house and
help celebate the days event, and they
all came.
Games were the first to occupy the
young misses time and afterword
came the good things to eat. Seated
at the refreshment table their eyes
were greeted by the appetizing birth
day cake on which were placed nine
candles, forming the center piece, and
nine little dolls with the name of each
guest thereon were used for place
cards. The little guests departed fo1
their homes at five o'clock in the af-
ternoon wishing Juliane many many
more such happy birthdays.

and development Of the livestock in
terests Of the county by keeping in
ferior grade or scrub bulls. I have
a list Of Sc owners Of such bulls. Some
of these men have grades that are
fairly good individuals, while others
have scrubs that are the worst kind
OF disgrace to the community and
to the county.
"The cost of a good registered bull
is so small now that it is a mystery
why any farmer will keep anything
else. Many records have been kept
during the last few years to prove out
the actual value Of pure-bred bull in
dollars and cents"
Some of these actual figures were
obtained recently by the department
OF agriculture through an inquiry sent
out to more than 500 farmers through
out the United States. These men
gave it as their opinion that in all
kinds of farm stock pure breds have
an earning power more than 40 per
cent better than common stock. It
is noteworthy that the case of dairy
cattle, whose productive power can be
easily measured, pure breds were con-
sidered to be 47.8 per cent better than
common cows. The lowest percentage
given for any kind of stock was 36.8
per cent.

There is every reason to believe that
the replacement of scrub and grade
sires by pure breads is on the increase

department of agriculture from coun.
ty agents in various parts Of the coun-
try show that the "Better Sires, Bet
ter Stock" movement is having a
noticeable effect. A recent statement
by M. G. Lewis, county agent OF
Rockford county, Va, is typical of a
large number.

Mrs. Hans Hanson.

Mrs. Hans Hanson, pioneer resi-.
dent Of 1santi county, passed away al
her home in Bellevue, Wash, nea,
Seattle, Monday, Aug. IA, 1922, after
several years of suffering.
Mrs. Hanson experienced serious
fall in 1917 which resulted in a frac.
tured hip from which she never fully
recovered, but with the aid of crutches
she was able to be around a great
deal. Last winter she underwent an
operation for gallstones and recovered
nicely, but later during her illness
stomach trouble set in and with other
complications death resulted.
Her husband, it will be remembered
passed away on June 13, just two
months ago. They were both very i'll
at the same time and, before Mr..
Hanson's death, it appeared that they
would go together. So her passing
away has been expected for some time,
yet the news came with great shock
Monday when her son J. w. Hanson
of Cambridge received telegram an
nouncing her death.
Mrs. Hanson Christina johnson was
born in Sillirude Socken Varmland,
Sweden, October S, 1851, and was at
the time Of her death 70 years, 10
months and 9 days old. She came to
American in 1875 and made her resi-
dence in Duluth and vicinity until 1877,
when she was united in marriage to
Hans Hanson at Thompson, Mimi,
and shortly thereafter settled on a
farm in Blomford, and in 1891 they
sold that farm and made their resi-
dence on farm near Green lake,
where they resided until in 1918, when
they sold the farm and moved to
Bellevue, Wash.
Their union was blessed with eight
children, of which two have passed
away. Amelia died in infancy, and
Victor gave his life to his country in
the Lost Battalion, Argonne Forest.
Six are living to mourn the deceased
and they are Mrs. Hannah Mudgett
Helm, Oregon City, Ore.; J. w. Han
son, Cambridge, Mimi, and George,
Arvid, Mrs. Bertha Lyse1l and Mrs.
Agnes Nelson of Bellevue, Wash.
Mrs. Hanson was dearly loved by all
who knew her unselfsh, generous and
kind disposition. She was always glad
to have people call at her house and
wanted them to feel at home while
there. Her sympathy was with the
sick and needy, and she was ever hap
py to lend helping hand. She took
great pleasure in being of service to
others, but above all things her fam
lily knows that she was good wife
and dear mother that can never be
replaced.

Will be Held in September and Many
Premiums Are to Be Offered.
The village of Isle on the lower east
bank of Mile Lacs lake and located in
Isle Harbor township, this county,
is not going to be outdone by the
larger towns in holding fairs, for the
progressive men and women of that
community have planned to hold a
street fair again this year similar to
the one held year ago. The exact
dates and premium list will be an
nounced later.
Last year they put on a splendid
little exhibition and were rewarded
by financial surplus from efforts dis
played, which will aid the fair COM
mittee in making bigger and better
preparations for this seasons fair.
Entries are open to all who reside
in the three counties of Aitkin, Kama
bee and Mile Lacs. Premiums are to
be; paid on calves and pigs owned by
the Boys club and on canned products
prepared by the members of the Girls
canning club. Individual farm dis
plays will be special and better fea-
ture than ever.
The Isle Fair is strictly home in
stitution and the cash premiums and
expenses are taken care of by dona-
tions from farmers and business men
of that community. The fair officers
are E. c. Boeck, president, and Swan
Nyquist, secretary.

CONTEST FOR HONORS
COntenders for Prizes in Dairy Pro-
ducts to Vie With Minnesota
at the State Fair.

The dairymen and buttermakers of
Minnesota are frequently,-not too
frequently,-called upon to demon
strate the excellence of the product
that goes forth from Minnesota cream
cries. For this reason Judging con-
tests are conducted from time to time
by the dairy and food department, the
criticism of the judges making it pos
sible for the maker to ascertain the
cause of his failure to chit the bell.''
The next contest, and one of the
most important is to be in connection
with the Minnesota State fair, Sept.
to 9, and though few may feel that
this contest is not of great Importance,
we wish to urge upon each the necessi-
ty of availing themselves of this last
opportunity of securing official criti-
cism of their product before the an
nual showdown in connection with the
convention of the National Creamery
Buttermakers, which follows in Oc-
tober, at which time Minnesota will
again have to meet the competition of
the buttermakers of all the other
states. Shall we buckle down and
again win the banner, as we have done
so often? There need be no question
Of the result if loyal cooperation is
given by all connected with the in
dustry, patrons as we'll as buttermak-
ers. Talk it over with your butter
maker tomorrow and urge upon him
the necessity Of doing his best to equal
or exceed the other fellow in quality
Of the product manufactured. And, do
not leave it all to the buttermaker,
either. Lend your assistance to help
him in his efforts to carry on the
greatest industry in the country.
Dairy cows and creameries make for
this state and this community an all
year substantial financial income.

Chevrolet came out best. No other
serious damage was done and Mr..

For fresh ink stains apply an
abundance of soap and wash hard. A
little lard rubbed on the stained
places before the soap is applied will
loosen the stain. If this is not sue
