ANNUAL CREAMERY
MEETING ON MONDAY

SCHILLING ARE BILLED FOR
ADDRESSES

MIR. MEJERTON'S RECORD

The annual meeting of the Sank
Lake Cooperative creamery which
will be held at the Community Club
rooms, Sank Centre, Monday Jan.
%, starting promptly at II 100 O'Clock
A. M. will be addressed by A. j.
Mcclure, president and general
manager of the Minnesota Cooper,
active Creameries Association, Inc.
and William Schilling of Northfeld,
MINI.
Sank Centre people are very well
acquainted with Mr.. Mcclure but
Mr.. Schilling is known only by his
reputation to the people of this COM
munity. The Herald knows some
thing of the ability of Mr.. Schilling
as practical dairyman and public
speaker. He is one of the big men in
the cooperative movement of Mime
sofa and he will have message well
worth while for every farmer in this
section of the state and all should
make an effort to attend.
In the publication of the figures of
the make of the Sank Lake creamery
of several years, last week, there APP
pears to be some confusion. In or
der to set matter right the Herald
will take up the work of Axel Meier
ton, the buttermaker. That gentle
man took charge of the Sank Lake
creamery on Jan. 1, 1921. In the
preceding year the Sank Lake Cream
cry manufactured 228,843 pounds of
butter. In 1923, the year just
closed, the creamery manufactured
508,775 pounds of butter, an increase
from December 81, 1920 to Dec. 81,
1928, or during the management of
Mr.. Mejerton, of 279,722 pounds of
butter. In its article of last week
the Herald also stated that the pa
irons of the Sank Lake creamery had
received $4,000 for their produce
of 1928, when as matter of fact,
the gross Receipts of the Sank
Lake creamery for 1923 was $222,-
900. The amount actually paid the
patrons will be disclosed by Secretary
Strauss report which will be read at
Mondays meeting.
If you are interested in the dairy
business in any way don't fail to att
tend the annual meeting of the Sank
Lake Cooperative creamery next
Monday, Jan. %. Be on hand at
II: 100 o'clock and stay through the
entire program. There will be much
to interest, educate and edify you.

Several members paid their dues at
last evenings meeting and these
amounts are reported above. Z
The Club was first informally OPP
ened to the public in October last
year. The need of such place is
best illustrated by the fact that since
the opening, no less than Al meetings
have been held in the Club rooms, as

TOTAL Meetings

About $500 has been received for
rent of the Club rooms. Under vote
of the Club, any legitimate farmers
organization is rendered the use of
the rooms without charge. 1t will be
noticed that eight meetings of this
sort have been held in few months.
If for no other purpose than to pro-
vide a place of assemblage for the
farmers organizations, the Commun-
city Club rooms have proved their
worth.
Under the head of new business
First Vice President j. B. Schoen-
hoff suggested that meeting OF the
Club be held once month during
the year, at stated time. He also
suggested that at alternate meetings
an informal dinner be served at
which the wives and lady friends OF
the members should be invited. The
suggestion of Mr.. Schoenhof was
adopted later in the evening The
meeting nights selected are the fourth
Thursday evening of each month.
It was also provided that the Club
functions at which the ladies were
invited should be confined strictly to
Club members and their ladies.
Ben Schoenhoff, as chairman of the
membership committee reviewed the
work of his committee. Much of the
success of the Club is due to the &C
tivities of this live wire committee
and they were given rising vote OF
thanks.
Chairman VIM. Parker, OF the ways
and means committee, explained that
there were several hundred dollars
in another fund which he hoped could
be left there for the purpose of pro-
viding the necessary billiard and pool
tables. He also explained that a
minstrel show to be directed by Glen
L. Otis, principal of the Sank Centre
Public Schools, was in the making,
and would be given sometime the lat
| ter part Of February. He urged the
Club members to get behind this
show and raise the necessary funds In
this way to clear off all Indebtedness
of the Club, leaving enough money In
the general fund to care for the

BUTTER IN CAR LOTS
DIRECT T'ONEW YORK
BLUE VALLEY CREAMERY WILL
HANDLE LOCAL PRODUCT IN
THIS MANNER
OUTPUT IS INCREASING
MANAGER KREBS SAYS THEY
WILL MANUFACTURE 1,0o0,-
600 POUNDS IN 1924

The wisdom of the Blue Valley
Creamery Company in establishing a
branch plant in Sank Centre, appears
to be justified by the rapid strides
they are making with the business of
the local Blue Valley Sweet Cream
creamery, which first made bid for
business in Sank Centre seven months
ago. On Jan. 81, the company be-
gan shipping its product in straight
carloads direct to the creamery's own
sale house in New York City. There
the Sank Centre butter will be print
ed and put in Blue Valley printed
packages and sold direct to the re-
tailers in the American metropolis
from the company's' own trucks.
AS an indication of the growth of
Blue Valleys business at the Sank
Centre plant during the first Is days
in January, customers were paid for
5,161h pounds of butterfat, and
the company expects to manufacture
10000 pounds of butter during the
month of January. A great majority
of the product used by the local Blue
Valley plant comes from territory
outside of Sank Centre. Their patrons
cover central and Northern Mime
sofa, and North Dakota.
Until Monday of this week the
Blue Valley butter manufactured in
this city had been shipped by local
refrigerator freight to the company's
Chicago house, but both volume and
quality have now reached point
where carloads of butter will be
shipped direct to the New York of
fee.
The Herald understands that the
carload shipment of Blue Valley but
ter Monday, was the first carload OF
butter ever shipped out of Sank Cen
tire from one creamery.
Believing that Herald readers
would be interested in the progress
made by the Blue Valley company,
we asked Local Manager Krebs for a
statement of their development. Mr.
Krebs' statement follows herewith:
"The Blue Valley Sweet Cream
Creamery is making a remarkable
record" said Manager l.. p. Kreks
to the Herald. 1.-THE Blue Valley
Creamery Company's experience In
starting new plants has been that il
takes about three years before new
Blue Valley creamery reaches the
volume of business for which it is
equipped. However, our creamery
here is growing at a much faster rate
During the first 13 days of JAN
uary we paid our customers for 25,-
1917 pounds of fat, and the daily
receipts have been growing ever since
Last week we made over 10000
pounds Of butter, and we are con.
sentative in saying that we shall make
over 10000 pounds of butter during
January, only the seventh month in
business here.
"Multiply the 10000 by IL, and
we have make of $4,000 pounds
of butter, for the year. This is es.
timated on the January make which
of course, is low as compared with
the flush season. The Blue Valley
Sweet Cream Creamery will easily
pass the million mark in butter out
put during its first year here.
sIn fact, in figuring on, passing the
million mark, we have not. even taker

MRS. HANSEN, SR.
SUDDENLY SUMMONED
STROKE SATURDAY
EVENING RESULTS IN DEATH
" IN FEW HOURS
A SHOCK TO COMMUNITY
SIMPLE FUNERAL SERVICES
WERE HELD FROM HOME
TUESDAY AFTERNOON

When death darkens the home fol-
lowing an illness, there is sorrow in
the community for the bereaved
family.
When one enjoying perfect health
is taken without warning, a COM
munity is shocked beyond expression.
That was the condition Of the people
of Sank Centre Saturday, Jan. 10,
1924, shortly before 500 o'clock in
the evening when word spread like
wildfre about the city, that Mrs. S.
P. Hansen, ST., had been stricken
with a. apoplectic stroke in front of
the rectory Of the Episcopal church
as she and her daughter, Isabel, ac-
companied by girl friend, were max
ing their regular Saturday evening
pilgrimage to the motion picture
theatre. Just before they reached
the corner, Mrs. Hansen said to her
daughter that "her hands felt so
funny" that she couldn't move her
limbs" and sank to the sidewalk.
Rev. Crickmer was notified and he
fastened to her side. He hurriedly
summoned couple of men who were
nearby and the unconscious form Of
Mrs. Hansen was carried to the rec
tory and the family notified. Ply
sicians were hastily summoned and
she was very soon removed to the
home of her son, John Percy Hansen,
on Birch street, where she passed
away at 1910 p M. without re-
gaining consciousness.
Mrs. Hansen was one Of the
sturdy, old fashioned sort of women
who devoted her life to her husband
and family. She was happiest when
they were healthy and contented. She
was the mother of nine children all
of whom are living, the youngest,
Isabel being about IA years old. The
entire family depended on her for
counsel and support, and her love was
of the unfaltering and unfailing kind
that was eager to make the cares of
her loved ones lighter. just how
much Mr.. Hansen and children de-
pended upon their wife and mother
for this support, they are beginning to
realize now that it has left them for
ever. In word, the deceased was an
ideal wife and mother. She was
quiet and rather backward with
strangers but those who were privil-
eyed to enjoy her acquaintance and
friendship have appreciated her true
worth and lovable character for years.
Bella Coldwell Cranston was born
in Edinburgh, Scotland, Aug. II,
1868. Her mother died when she
was an infant and she made the trip
to America alone when ID years old,
going to the home. of her uncle,
Douglas Robertson, now of Minneap-
oils, at Blanchard, N. D. She resided
with the family of her uncle at
Blanchard until November 4, 1884
when she was united in marriage to
S. P. Hansen. Mr.. and Mrs. Hansen
resided at Blanchard for about three
years when they moved to West
Superior, Wis, where they remained
for about four years, coming to Sank
Centre in 1892, this city having since
been their home.
The death of Mrs. Hansen is the
first break in the family and besides
the grief stricken husband, the chill
dren are: Mrs. Jean Crosby Schmidt,
Sank Centre; John Percy Hansen,

Annual Meeting Of Com
Tr1u1ity Club Wednesday
Night Largely Attended

The first annual meeting of the
Sank Centre Community Club held at
the Community Club rooms last eve
ming proved to the most skeptical that
Sank Centres civic organization is a
going concern.
Immediately after calling the meet
ing to order President W.. A. Moore
asked for a roll call of members by
Secretary Conklin, and it was found
that there were ISL members, includ-
ing all the members of the American
Legion. Of this number about 80
of the Club members outside the Lee
'gion, have paid their dues for 1924.
After reading the minutes of the
last meeting, the treasurer's report
disclosed that there was 1,045.61 in
the general fund and $265.20 in the
building fund. The following is a
summarized statement of the two
funds:

JUDGE GEO. F. CODER
MAKES STATEMENT TO
VOTERS OF CIRCUIT

Marietta, Ca, May IA, 1924.
To the People of the Blue Rudge Cir
cult:
l am informed that it is industri-
ously circulated by certain political
managers that l announced my can
didacy for the office Of judge of the
Superior Court at the instance of
Judge Newt Morris and am running
as his candidate with his help and
support. No statement could be fur
Their from the facts. For more than
two years | have been importuned
and solicited by hundreds of voters
from different parts of the circuit
to become a candidate. This demand
has been made on me without any
invitation or solicitation on my part.
| am not the candidate of any single
individual, corporation or clique. If
elected / will not be under any obi
cation to anybody or any special in
terest beyond the duty imposed upon
me by my oath of office to enforce
the law and do impartial justice.
Judge Morris never spoke to me
about my candidacy, nor / to him
about it. / never asked his support
and he has never offered it. 1 knew
when announced that he was
pledged to another candidate and
would be against me. l say this re-
spectfully, but it is a statement of
facts.
| do not charge any avowed candi-
date with the origination or circula-
ton Of this clumsy and transparent
fabrication. I am trying to run a
fair and honorable race. am run
ming against no one, but l am ask
ing the people to nominate me to fill
the vacancy in the office that will
occur on January 1, 1925. The Of
flee belongs to the people and they
have a right to fill it.
The aforesaid statement is being
circulated to prejudice me and re-
greet the necessity of being compelled
to publish this card.
Respectfully,
Geo. F. Gober.
