Improvement of
Streets to School

A resolution for the paving of West
street from King to Princess street
is now pending before the new city
council. This, resolution will, if pas
sed, provide an excellent street up
to the front Of the new jefferson
school building as well as to the high
school
The proposed improvements would
require the expenditure of from $l4.-
500 to SIT 800, according TO the width
of the sidewalks.
Patrons of the two schools are
deeply interested in this proposition
as, for years, children attending high
high school had been forced to wade
through the slush and mud of un-
paved West street
1t is expected that council will take
final action in this matter at the
next meeting Thursday afternoon.

Holds Right Of
Placing OF Pole

An important decision on the right
Of a public service corporation 20
erect poles in the sidewalks OF the
City of Alexandria over the objection
of the abutting property owner was
rendered today by Judge Duvall in
Police Court. Mrs. NJ. l.. Recker, own
er Of property on Prince Street near
Fayette, objected to the placing Oh
a pole on her sidewalk by the Alex
andria Light and Power Company, ana
had the employees of the Company
arrested on q warrant charging un-
lawful treSpaSS.
The evidence in the case showed
that the location of the pole had
been fixed by the City Engineer, IN
front of Mrs. Rockers property to
afford facility and safety of service
because the curbing at the corner
OF Prince and Fayette Street had been
changed from q square to a round
corner. The court held that under
the State law and the Company's s
franchise with the City, the Lighting
Company ha0 the right to use the
streets of the City for the erection OF
It's poles when the ocation of the poeS
mad been determined upon by the
City Engineer.
In diSmlSSjng the warrant sued out
by Mrs, Recker. Judge Duvall held
that when III" City Engineer had de-
clded where a pole should be placed,
and his decision was shown to be rea-
sonabIe, the pubGc's interest was
paramount and the pole could be
placed, over the objection of the prop
erty owner.
Mrs Reeker was represented by
Attorney i. b. Washington, and the
Lighting Company by Attorney Leo

Growing feeds, he says, consists OF
skimmilk, clover hay, oats, bran and

of 80 pounds ground corn, 30 pounds

Minnesota Association Takes Over

(By Farm Bureau News Service)

(By Farm Bureau News Service)
The cooperative creameries of Min
nes0ta at last have their own direct
representative on the eastern market
The Minnesota Cooperative Cream
cries association, Inc, announced to-
day that NJ. ,Sondergaard, American
manager for the United Danish Butter
Associations, Inc. has become its New
York representative. The Minnesota
association has" taken over the entire
establishment Of the Danish organiza-
ton, at 1O5 Hudson street, New York
City.
For the first time in history, the
dairy industry of Minnesota as a
whole has its own agency to protect
it's interests on the important terminal
markets of the east Prices, freight
and every other phase of marketing
cooperative creamery patrons are con-
cerned will be watched by the New
York Office.
The new eastern office already has
done service for Minnesota farmers,
according to A. J. Mcclure, manager
of the state association. Mr. Sender
gard has reported the arrival in New
York of the first carload of eggs ship
ped. comparatively by Minnesota farm
ers under the statewide egg market
ing plan worked out by the creameries
association at conference last month.
The Carload came from Glencoe The
possibilities Of this marketing plan
were indicated, MI. Mcclure says, in
the report from the New York Office.
1.-The carload Of eggs from Glencoe
is receiving many favorable comments
here because of the fine quality of
the eggs," Mr.. Sondergaard said. Il
am informed that these eggs are some
of the finest that have ever arrived
in the market at this time of the
year. If Minnesota can furnish this
grade of eggs, I see no reason why
We should not be doing big business
in eggs as we'll as butter"
Never before. Mr.. Mcclure said,
have Minnesota farmers been allowed
to find out, as whole, that their
eggs were recognized as high class
product on the eastern markets. The
new Office Of the Minnesota dairy
farmers on the New York market, he
said, will protect the interests Of the
producers by seeing that Minnesota
products are marketed at the highest
price their, quality commands, and
that the farmers get the full benefit
of higher prices paid for high quality.
