Hindu and Polish
WreStIerS

Nat Panther" Pendleton, a Wrest-
Ter who has never been thrown, has
started extensive training for his
match here on March 20 with Bon
Amaei the Hindu heavyweight wrest-
ling chir1pion. This is the main
event on the second program to be
staged in the local auditorium by
Stuart Robson of New York City.
The former amateur heavyweight
champion realizes the importance of
his match with the Hindu and his
coming match VIZ, Wladek Hbysko,
the Great Pole, which is being work
ed on by Promoter Robson. The
winner of the latter contest will be
sure of a crack at the title of Ed
stranger" Lewis, the present
h ".vyweight champion of the world.
Numerous challenges have been
flung at Lewis by Pendleton but the
wrestler of strangle hold fame. has
failed a accept any of these. He is
well aware of the showing made by
Pendleton at the Olympic games in
Antwerp, Belgium in 1920 and the
fact that the Panther has never been
thrown.
Skill is the key to the success of
the man who took to the wrestling
game during his college days, and in
the long run skill will win out over

Every effort is being made by

At the close of last season Romer
hinted that he was considering re-

Press, Bake|ite, Outlaws
and Merchants Win In
City VoIley Ball League

the Press sextette won two straight
games from the Nationals by scores
Of 1874 and 1876. Both OF these
games were closer and more inter-
esting than the score would indicate.
The winning combination consisted
Of Massopust, Pickersgill, Frank
Couings, julius Chiznladia. Messen-
ger and johnson. The Nationals
lined up with Walter Oliver. Francis
Oliver, BedeIi, Booz, MacWilliam
and Newcomer.
The Professionals, handicapped by
having neither DR.. Henry nor Barth-
olomeW in their first game, proved
an easy prey to the strong Bakelite
com bination The winners Of last
years City League annexed the ini-
tiaI game, 15-1. In the second game
Henry was in the lineup but Bartnoi-
omew's absence was felt and the
Professionals, although making a
better showing, lost, 1916. The
Bakelite lineup consisted of Captain
Sehrimpe, Major, Parker. Peakes,
Cornelius and Kardos. The Profess
sionals had Captain Wilhert West
colt, II. Westcott, Moss, War;, Grei-
sen and Henry.
The first forfeiture of the league
resulted from the non-appearance
Of the Bankers team last night.
Captain Sam Miller was unable 10
get enough of his men together to
go on the floor and consequently
was forced TO forfeit to the Out
laws.
The Lead Works gave the Mer-
chants a scare in the last contest
Of the night when they defeated
Rankin's outfit, 1913, in the sec
ond game of the series. The Mer-
chants won their first game, 15-7,
and easily annexed the deciding
game, 1872. Lesson, the main spik-
er of the Merchants, was not in the
lineup. The Merchants lined up with
Rankin, Sharp, J. Gardeila. John
Melko and Warter. The Lead Works

media, Smoyak, Gillis and Pfeif-
fer.

Service That Helps the Farmer

In every Blue Valley creamery to-
days price and service bring tomor-
rows cream.
Every Blue Valley creamery has
lots of competition for the farmers
cream. Only the better Blue Valley
prices and service make more and
more farmers sell their cream to the
Blue Valley, creamery.
Blue Valley holds it's patronage by
merit only. Thinking farmers all
through the Middle West have made
Blue Valley the largest exclusive man
ufacturers of creamery butter in the
world. They have done so only be-
cause they have found Blue Valley
prices and service at each Blue Val
ley creamery the best under the ag-
ricultural conditions in its territory.
Blue Valley prices and service are
the result of the better Blue Valley
ALTERNATING and butter marketing
methods which have been explained in
these articles. These methods will
now for the first time be applied to
sweet cream in the new Blue Valley
Sweet Cream Creamery in Sank Cen

Working in the Dark

Unless the can is actually filthy or
is dirty to the extent that the butter
maker in the weighroom can detect
its condition by the odor of the cream,
only laboratory examination will
determine whether a can, washed un-
der average farm conditions, is as
clean as it ought to be-.
Millions of bacteria have been found
in cans that apparently were clean
and We're known to come from farms
where the people were careful and
did what would be considered good
washing.
The trouble is that only men who
make buttermaking their profession
and life work realizes the big part
which bacteria play in the making of
butter. Bacteria can be seen only
through the microscope. While wash
ing can, we cannot tell simply by
looking into it, if we have washed it
clean enough to reduce the number
OF bacteria to minimum.
For that reason Blue Valley finds
that the methods that are practical
on the farm do not give the cream the
protection it should have and which
the interest of the farmer demands.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1923-04-12

scientific study by the Blue Valley re-
search laboratory.
The condition of the can has a
great influence on the quality of but
ter made from the cream carried in it.
Part of the cream is in the can from
"a to 48 hours and longer. Therefore,
if the can is not absolutely clean, it
will contaminate the cream and low
er its quality. That means lower
grade of butter, lower selling price
and in the end lower price for but
terfat. The farmer then is the loser.
For that reason the cream can is a
most important dairy utensil and it's
condition well worth the study the
Blue Valley research laboratory has
given it.

A Disagreeable Task

No farmer needs to be told that can
washing is one of the most disagree
able and laborious tasks on the farm.
There are many farms on which
can washing is done earnestly, but
even there the task is burden. The
proper facilities for heating plenty
of water and producing plenty of
steam-facilities necessary to guar
antee first-class job-are lacking on
practically every farm.
That makes can cleaning a job
hat is disliked and dreaded even on
the farm where the people take just
pride in a high standard of cleanli-
ness and thoroughness.
On other farms again there are
neither facilities nor inclination for
can washing. This, of course, in
creases many times the chances of
