Butter Market Advances

Egg Receipts Have Been Light and

Good butter markets have pre-
vailed during the past week. CHI

per pound; and New York go score
Extras have advanced l "A cent per
pounds. Butter-fat production gen
orally and receipts of butter on the
larger consuming markets have been

has continued good. Considerable
confidence in the butter marke0s has
been in evidence and trading gener-
slly has been on satisfactory basis.
The movementof storage butter has
been good. Storage stocks have been
drawn on heavily to make up the
deficiency in fresh butter, but this
storage movement has in no way
been hindrance to trading on fresh
butter as markets both Chicago and
New York are in good condition at
this time.
Egg receipts on the four largest
markets of the country have been
light, and in fact, showing further
decreases as compared with week
previous and same week year ago.
Thae general quality of eggs being
received is very irregular AMI actual
selling prices varying directly ac-
cording to the quality of eggs being
sold. There has been a good demand
for top quality eggs and on these

Minneapolis Car Crashes Into
Ford Truck Saturday Night
Mrs. Beckman Aged MeIrose Woman,
Suffers Broken Hip-Liquor
Found in Chrysler

A serious automobile crash occurred
on paved Highway No. about a
half mile east of the Henry Borgmann
farm Saturday evening at 6 80 when
Chrysler coach driven by Benjamin
l.. Boalt, 5008 Belmont avenue, Min
neapolis collided with the rear of a
light Ford truck parked on the high
way and displaying no tail light while
one of the occupants, Joseph Beck
man of Melrose was engaged in re-
pairing tire. Beckman's mother IA
years old, who was seated in the car
sustained fractured hip while
Beckman received a fractured wrist.
Philip STEINER driving a few min
utes behind the doomed Chrysler con-
veyed Mrs. Beckman to the city hos
pital where a thorough examination
was made. At the present writing her
condition is considered to be much
improved though at first pronounced
very critical.
Boalt in company with two COM
panions was on his way to Ashby on
a hunting trip. They were towing a
boat cart and heavy duck boat which
evidently kept the Chrysler upright in
the crash. One occupant off the
Chrysler was cut on one hand and
chin from the pieces of flying glass.
The Ford received the bulk of the
damage being carried 60 feet from
the spot where it was hit and utterly
demolished. The Chrysler after the
impact swung to the left and
headed into the ditch, climbed it and
smashed through a wire fence and
into field before it came to a stand
still. The front of the car was caved
in and rendered a mass of twisted
steel and broken glass.
In the probing of the wreck liquol
was found in the Chrysler. Boalt was
held in the city Jail Saturday night
pending further investigation. He
was released on bail Sunday.
At the hearing before Municipal
Judge R. R. Kells Wednesday after
noon the defendant was represented
by Attorney Watson of Minneapolis.
Attorney Donahue of St. Cloud rep.
resented the county attorney. Mr..
Boalt is charged with driving while
Intoxicated and transporting liquor.
He was bound over to the December
session of the Stearns county Grand
jury which meets at ST. Cloud in the
sum of $3.50 bonds which was furn-
ished.

The clinic offers an excellent OPP

CLIMATE CLUB
TO Be FORMED
FOR This CITY

The Douglas Kiwanis club recently
took up movement for a Sunshine
Climate club here. Such an organiza-
tion started in Tucson a very few
years ago and has brought that city
thousands Of new residents and mill
lions of new dollars, The idea Of the
club is a community organization to
nationally advertise Douglas so as to
acquaint the world with the wonder
full climate of Soutbern Arizona and
to interest people in coming to this
city and district
Such clubs have been successful in
other cities and records kept by them
prove that every penny expended for
advertising has brought back many
dollars.
1t has been pointed out that Doug
las has even better climate and a
very much larger list of attractions
of other sorts than has Tucson. At
the same time Douglas and the local
district has vast agricultural possi-
bilities.
Tucson advertises only as health
resort. Phoenix and surrounding dis
tricts advertise agricultural advan-
tages.
Douglas is in position to guaran-
tee better climate than either of
these places and infinitely greater
prospects for the farmer or rancher.
This town therefore has double ad-
vantageI over either of the above
mentioned districts and therefore a
double incentive for letting the world
know about it.
Such club here 20 advertise the
district, if it be properly organized
and properly conducted, could not fail
to increase the population of this city
in five years and more interest new
settlers in the adjacent valleys.
Increased population increases
wealth and thus distributes the tax
burden over wider rea while at the
same time development of the re-
sources and possibilities of the dis
trict increase rapidly and profitably
