Cows Should have Grain In Ad.
dition To Pasture In Summer
For Best Results.

''Plenty of good grazing should
be provided during the summer for
it is natures balanced ration and
is the cheapest way of feeding the
dairy herd,' says c. A. Hutton,
dairy specialist, Extension Service.
University of Tennessee.
However, high producing COWS
cannot eat enough grass to enable
them to secure the amount of food
nutrients required for their max
ium milk yield, and should receive
some grain feed while on pasture,
he states, when pastures are excep'
tionally good it may not pay in i'm
mediate returns to feed grain to av-
erage COWS, but when pastures are
short or limited in acreage, or when
high producing COWS are kept it is
always best to feed some grain.
Some good dairymen make it a
practice to discontinue grain feeding
for a month or so while pastures
are at their best, giving the cows
digestive system complete change
and a rest. This is a very good
system complete chang and rest
This is very good system where
pastures are especially good, but
COWS will produce better when pas
lures get short if they have been
kept in the very best of condition
by the feeding of some grain all the
time, unless the pasture is very
luxuriant. .l.
ct is very essential to feed grain
during the hot, dry months of
late summer when the grass is
short. Cows are often allowed to feed
on grass alone during the dry fall
days and they are unable to secure
sufficient nutriant from such dry,
short pastures, which is the reason
so many dairymen find the milk
yield decreasing at that season of
the year. It is very necessary for
COWS to have proper attention at
this season if they are to be profit
able producers during the fall and
winter; in poor condition with a low
milk yield it is practically impossi.

DISTRICT CONVENTION.
Tenth Congressional District Holds
Convention in Minneapolis;
SchaIl Ind0rsed.

The tenth congressional district
which includes Anoka, Chisago, Isanti,
Kanabec, Mile Lacs, Pine and Wright
counties and portion Of Hennepin,
was held at the West hotel in Mime
apolis on Thursday, March 30. There
were ia delegates to this convention,
81 of them being from Hennepin coun-
ty. That portion of Hennepin county
which lies in this district includes the
3rd, 4th and 10th wards of Minneap-
oils. The heavy voting portion Of the
district is therefore the south end.
All of the Mile Lacs county dele
gates were present but did not take a
particularly active part. in the pro-
ceedings. In fact the whole affair was
exceedingly tame because there was
only one candidates name before the
convention, that of Thomas D. Schall.
Hon. Thomas Gerling Of Robbinsdale
was chosen as chairman. DR.. Charles
Swenson of Braham and F. A. Dickey
Of Minneapolis were nominated as rep
resentatives of the tenth district on
the state central committee.
Mr.. Schall was not present but he
was ably represented by his close
friend, the genial Andy Rain.

conveyed the information that his
father, S. Peterson, died at that place
on April 2. No particulars were given

Girls of the Sixties Meet,


On Tuesday of this week the Girls
OF the Sixties spent a very pleasant
afternoon with Mrs. Ellen Howard.
The party was in the nature of a sur
prise and handkerchief shower for
Mrs. Howard, who leaves this month
for New Jersey to visit granddaugh-
ter.
Mrs. Eta Libby gave a humorous
recitation entitled "In Grandmother's
Ilme," which was greatly enjoyed.
The afternoon was spent largely in
recalling old-time memories and
pleasures, from a sleigh ride behind
a yoke of steers to the spelling match
at the school when Mrs. Ellen Howard
and Mrs. Emma Griffith chose sides
and spelled the school down; then,
facing each other, kept on nearly
through the old spelling book. At
last Ellen, in her excitement, left out
a letter in the final word spelled, and
Emma won out and was pronounced
the champion speller of the school.
Many delightful stories were told of
the old days.
At 6 o'clock a delicious supper was
served and shortly after the girls
wended their way homeward, after
wishing Mrs. Howard pleasant visit

Truck Loads on Soft-Surfaced
Roads During Spring.
Minnesota trunk highways will be
closed to heavy trucking wherever
necessary to prevent damage to the

Charles M. Babcock, state highway
commissioner, announced this week
The first order under the policy was
issued to cover the north shore road

tween Duluth and Grand Marais, and
many others are to follow.
"The truck owner who attempts tc
move excessive loads on soft roads
only wastes his own and his neigh
boris money-makes necessary repair
work from funds which otherwise
could be used for improvements" says
Mr.. Babcock. For that reason the CO.
operation of the general public is ex-
pected to preserve the highways
against abuses this spring. Mainte-

east and a safe return.
The history of this little club is
really unique. Most Of the members
were schoolmates, and all were girls
in their teens away back in the sixties,
at the close of the civil war. At that
time there was only one school build
ing in Princeton and one teacher en-
ployed for all grades. The building
is still standing on the north side, just
across the street from Oswald Kings
home, and is used as residence. Of
the boys that attended school only
Robert Byers of the same classes still
resides in Princeton. But such boys
as Will Hatch, Elmer Whitney and AL
bert King were among the first

THAT CARNIVAL.
One of the Most Mirth- Provoking En-
tertainments Presented in
princnt0n Roronf1v

The carnival presented on Friday
night by the high school was one of
the funniest stunts ever pulled off in
Princeton. Previous to the entertain
ment a parade consisting of all sorts
and conditions of painted revelers,
clowns on horseback, etc., wended its
way to the high school building and
an immense crowd attended the even
ing frolic.
There were all sorts of rare animals,
articulated skeletons, wild men and
women to be seen in the various
booths, as we'll as the chamber of
horrors, which many visited with
alarm and an electric shock upon
emerging.
Yes, it was real carnival all right.
Confetti was flying in the air and the
gaudy raiment of the revelers put the
rays from the incandescent bulbs to
shame. Then there was the noise,
which, if we are not mistaken, was
sufficient to eclipse the hubbub which
is attendant upon the annual carnival
of Venice or the Mardi Gras at New
Orleans.
The carnival was given for the pur-
pose of raising funds for athletics in
the school, and the committees that
put on the show are entitled to more
than modicum Of credit for the sue
cess achieved. The chairmen of these
committees were as follows: Glen
Blomquist, advertising; Fred Haden,
sideshows; Mildred Newton, novelty
booths. The floor manager was Clar-
ence Emery and the general overseer
Douglas Ames.
Everybody had grand and glorious
time and the receipts aggregated
something like 5000.

in the basement of the Milaca school
house. The meeting was called to or
der at 1850 with all members except
John Levau present. Mr.. Levau ar
rived a few minutes later.
Representatives of the Mile Lacs
County Farm Bureau association ap-
peared before the board asking for an
appropriation Of $4,000 for the ensu-
ing year. The association had six
representatives present, including
Louis Normandin, William Gebert,
Sam Droogsma, Mrs. Seth Wahlfors,
P. E. Anderson and Waldo Hammar-
gren. It seemed to be the unanimous
opinion of all these representatives
that $4,000 was the minimum appro-
priation necessary to. conduct the pro-
gram of the association during the
next IL months.
There was considerable discussion
in regard to the advisability of max
ing SO large an appropriation. Com
missioner Eckdall of Borgholm stated
that while he personally believed in
the farm bureau and thought the as
sociation was doing good work, he
hardly felt free to vote for large ap-
preparation because the majority of
farmers in his district were not in
favor of it. Mr.. Eckdall said he did
not think more than one out of four
farmers in his district were in sympa-
thy with the Farm Bureau association.
The county agent, Waldo Hammar-
gren, presented the budget prepared
for 1922, showing just how the mon
ey would be expended by the associa-
tion if granted. Mr.. Hammargren
stated that the farm bureau had this
year saved the farmers in this county
$3.50 by securing two shipments of
picric acid, war salvage explosive,
for land clearing purposes. The four
projects outlined for next year are
land clearing, club work, home demon
stration work and livestock breeding.
The commissioners, after studying
the farm bureau budget prepared for
next year and list of the appropria-
tions made by many other counties in
the state, agreed to let the matter rest
until the afternoon session in order to
give hearing to certain parties from
Isle village.
The petition Of Nils B. Berg ct al.
asking to be set off from the village of
Isle to the town of Isle Harbor was
presented to the board for it's final
hearing by O. c. Myron. A. D. Smith
Of Isle appeared as the attorney for
Isle village. After both attorneys
had presented their arguments and
the petitioners had been heard, the
board adjourned.
The board reconvened at 2 o'clock.
Commissioner Newton moved that the
petition Of Nils B. Berg ct al. be re-
sected. John Levau seconded the mo-
tion and it was carried unanimously
The petition was rejected on grounds
that Mr.. Berg had once previously
been set off from Isle village and had
knowingly again bought back into the
village. Furthermore as the village
of Isle expands the land in question will

Murdered in China, Arrives in
Princeton for Burial.
The body of Emil Riebe arrived in
Princeton on Monday from Shanghai,
China, and was conveyed to his old
home in Bogus Brook.
Emil Riebe was one of the crew of
a United States cruiser lying off
Shanghai, China. While on shore
leave from his ship he, with other
sailors, visited cafe and was stabbed
by an Italian belonging to the crew
Of another vessel anchored in the har-
Dor. It appears that the men from the
Italian vessel rushed the American
sailors and stabbed several with stilet-
tos. Emil Riebe sustained mortal
wound and died shortly after Jan
uary 2 of this year. He would have
been "a years old the day following
his murder. He is survived by his
father, Albert Riebe, of Alberta, Ala,
four brothers and six sisters.
Mr.. Riebe arrived here on Tuesday
from the south to attend the funeral,
which will be held in Zion Lutheran
church this (Thursday) afternoon.
Rev. Otto Strauch will conduct the
services, which will not be of mill
tary nature.
Emil was a real American citizen
who served his country we'll, and the
United States should demand of the
Italian government full reparation for
his assassination by one of it's sub
jects. Albert Riebe, the father of the
| slain boy, is surely entitled to none
tary consideration, even though that
cannot pay the debt for the loss of his
son.
