cow PROVED. HERSELF THE ANGEL
FOR BANKERS IN STEELE COUNTY
Kept Right On Giving Life-Saving Fluid That
Caused Checks To Be Met In
Panicky Times

Owatonna, September. l9.-When
times were panicky and business
generally suffered from dyspepsia
and indigestion. when bankers in
great many communities guarded
their resources with an eagle eye,
declining to cash checks for large
amounts, fearful that their reserve
funds would be encroached upon,
the financial institutions OF Steele
county met all demands without hes
itancy and transactions over the
counters were negotiated as they
had been done in normal times.
There was a reason. The cow
was the angel in this instance as
she has been many times in the
hour of distress. She was the I'm
ancial hacker of banks. She was
performing a signal duty, at time
when money was the greatest need
to carry on business relations be-
tween man and man. Hard times
did not prevent her from function
ing, and she gave to Steele county
her life saving fluid and kept bust
ness moving as usual.
One of Top -Notehers
Steele county is one OF the top
notchers in the dairy industry in
Southern Minnesota There are
twenty six creameries in the coun
ty-almost two for every township.
When it is taken into consideration
that the population Of Steele county
is $1,000 and that the bank deposits
run up to more than seven million
dollars it must be conceded that the
ccw is entitled to a large measure
of credit for that enormous bank
roll, which speaking in per capita
terms. puts $400 into the pocket of
each resident Of the county.
There are $4,000 cows on 1900
farms and last year these boviEes
supplied the creameries in Steele
county with enough material to
manufacture about 100000 pounds
of butter. This butter returned to
the patrons of the creameries some
thing like $2,500y000. Carrying the
butter to market haul would have
required a train three miles IN
length. ..
herds of cattle in Steele county and
$50 herds Of high grade cattle.
Whiting Enthusiastic
There is no more enthusiastic ad-
vocate of the dairy industry In Steele
county than e. X. Whiting, publisher
Of the Owatonna Journal. The Free
Press representative talked with him
in regard to the industry, its present
condition and future prospects. Mr..
Whiting declared that Steele county
in time would surpass any county in
the state in dairying.
THE boys and girls are going TO
be the dairymen and dairywomen In
time. They are taking hold Of the
industry now. They are gong to en-
courage others to do likewise Al can
see a splendid influence working in
that direction. The young people
are not only bringing other young
people to realization of the great
benefits that can be derived from the
farm, but they are giving wonderful
encouragement to their elders. They
are bouying up their parents and as

sisting in making the farm pay well.
The work OF the boys and girls in
their clubs Is going to. tell in future
generations. They are going to re-
main on the farm and give lie TO the
false philosophy that Is being prea-
COED by gdemogogues that the farm is
not money maker. The future OF
the farm lies in the hands OF the boy
and girl ofstoday. They are going to
be the farmers OF tomorrow. r..
Steele County Fair
The Steele county fair has had
much tosdo with encouraging the
boys and girls TO throw their heart
and soul into farm topics-to raise
pure bred cattle. to make the hog
squeal all the louder because 1t feels
make the roosters crow and the hens
cackle, because the blue ribbons a
dorm their necks. Yes, sir, the boys
and girls movement as It relates to
the farm Is the important thing to-
day. The Steele county fair is pay
ing great deal of attention to the
live stock and that is one reason
why IL has made such a wonderful
success. 1t has been the means Of
creating an efficient team work be-
tween the farmer and the business
man."
Mothers Rest -
One of the features of the Steele
county fair Is the Mothers Rest, ="
a building erected by the Owatonna
United Commercial Travellers coun- :
ell. It is a pretty structure and has
been a boone to mothers who wish
to attend the fair and enjoy the sigh
is. While they are engaged in this
happy pastime their Infants are be-
ing cared for at the Mothers Rest"
by women who volunteer for the
purpose and who delight in spending
their time in the nursery. In front
of the building are sand piles and
tools which are turned over to these
little folks who are old enough to en-
gage In the pastime Of playing in
the sand They are carefully watch :
ed so that fond mothers need not
worry over them ..s.
Claim Big Record
But getting back to the dairy in
dustry 1t Is claimed that Steele
county produces more butter per
square mile than any other county
In the, United States. This certain
ly is something to claim. There may
be other counties that will dispute
the claim. In 1920 seventeen per
cent of the bulls used more pure
breds and in 1921 this percentage
was increased to twenty two.
The honor of having the first
modern creamery in the state OF
Minnesota Is claimed by Clark s
Grove, hamlet in Freeborn county.
This creamery was organized In
1890. 1t wi II be noted that the
growth of creameries in Minnesota
has been rapid. That they have been
the money makers for their partrons
is evidenced by the prosperous con
ditions Of those sections wherein
creameries thrive. And certainly dur
Ing the past few years the dairy
industry has been the saving grace
for those who have mifked cows in
stead Of depending upon wheat for a
purse fattener.

PEACE NOW R[IGNS
INNORTH MANkATO
Political Strife and Discord
Have Passed; Annexation
Question Is Buried

The village of North Mankato,
resting snuggly along side of the
Minnesota river and banked by
towering hills, has cast aside tho
turmoil of political strife and dis
cord and Is passing daily-life in SUB
lime tranquility. This quite peace
ful life has been enjoyed by the
citizens of the village aross the
river for several months-ever since
the turbulent discussion of the An
nexation Problem" rocked the
foundations Of homes and lifelong
friendships ceased.
For several months passed North
Mankato has rode the domestic and
civic sea without helmsman-no
mayor having been in the city dur
ing that length of time. When the
annexation fight was hottest Mayor
d. o. Tenney pulled stakes and mcy
ed to Washington. He at first In
tended to make visit but later
is now permanently lodged for the
future. He has since resigned his
position as mayor OF the village
w. r. Fenger, councilman of
North Mankato questioned yester-
day regarding who was at the helm,
stated that the community was get
ting along first rate. without lead.
ing official He Also stated that
there would probably be no Mayor
OF North Mankato until the Novem-
Der elections.
, That the annexation question has
been definitely dropped was practi-
caliy assured with the announce
ment yesterday Of the intention of
Henry Robel, ST., to move to Cali
Sornia. Robel was the leader OF the
annexationdsts and for time being
made things hot for the anti an
nexation party. It is probable that
the question wf1l dfe-and be buried
with the loss Of the prominent
leader.
