CREAMERY HAS
A GOOD YEAR
Decreases Somewhat but
Average Net Price Is
Higher.

A fair sized crowd attended the
annual meeting of the Askov Cream
cry Association held at 10 o'clock
Tuesday morning in the D. B. S. hall.
The beginning of the meeting in the
forenoon was new innovation since
the meetings usually commenced after
the lunch hour. The all day meeting
seemed to be so popular that when a
vote of assent was called for there
were no dissenting votes against max
ing it a permanent practice. Besides
giving plenty of time for the i'm
portant business of reviewing the year
just completed an all day session
makes for a more social gathering
along with the more serious side of it.
Speakers Present.
As is the usual custom a represen-
tative from the Land O'Lakes Cream
cries was present as was also the field
man for District No. 2, Ben Lindvig
The latter, who is new man in the
district having succeeded Arthur c.
Rentz here, talked on the care of
cream and its grading. Mr.. Lindvig
gave the impression of being a worthy
successor to Mr.. Rentz in that he
shows a spirit of cooperation and ap-
parently is we'll grounded in his work
Alex Johnson, of the Land O'Lakes,
talked on various phases pertaining
to cooperative marketing and the care
and pOduction of cream. He ended
his talk by giving brief outline of
the new cream grading bill which is
to be presented for passage. The bill.
said Mr.. johnson, will make for
more uniform system of grading. At
the present time one creamery may
grade more strictly than others and
cream stations can take most any
cream that comes. Mr.. johnson stated
that while some creameries will not
take cream that is not absolutely of
the sweet cream grade, a two-grade
system is best. He urged resolution
passed by the meeting favoring the
grading bill and this was done.
Mr.. Johnson also stated that dairy
men apparently could not look for
much higher prices, since the pres
ent purchasing power of consumers
will cause them to turn to substitutes
for butter if the price gets too high.
The speaker stated that 1884 would
apparently sum up to have been a
pretty good year for Land OIakes,
although the reports are not yet COM
plete.
The Little German Band entertained
pleasingly during the dinner hour.
Creamery Has Good Year.
The annual financial statement of
the creamery shows that, considering
the shortage of feed and the decrease
in dairy herds, the concern enjoyed
good year. 1,39O.179 pounds of cream

Home Atmosphere
Has Considerable
Influence on Crime

Bert Merling of Lindstrom, who
has previously contributed to the
columns of the Askov American,
gives a version of the prevention
of crime in contrast to it eradica-
tion through punishment. Mr..
Merlings article follows:
A tearing, slashing and overwhelm-
ing hatred. A fury, mad and red as
uncontrolled fire. Then a fusillade
of shots. Prone upon the street
pitches human being. the recipient
of the leaden fire poured out of death
dealing guns. Hate and destruction
has vomited death again. The mali
cious and satanic lust of hate pro-
PEELED killing has again thrilled the
killers A siren shrieks, and the law
enters to arrest the murderer. But
where is he?
Crime. Bloody, ruthless, destroying.
It's cost last year the unbelievable
sum of thirteen billion dollars. Is
civilization mad not to look for the
root causes of SO appalling a cost
in human destruction. Will society
go on forever applying the punitive
rod OF capital punishment and the
tortures of penal Incarceration, know
ing that for ten thousand years pun
ishment has never acted as a real
deterrent to crime. The stake, the
rope, the electric bolt, the thumb
screw, rack, pillory and flogging
postal the retributory punish
ments through the ages and yet. to-
day, billions of dollars expended in a
twelve-months period and still the
anti-social, fired by hate, intolerance,
envy and anger stalks the ranks Of
society with smoking gun, poison and
the livid lust to destroy. Why? II
the cry for more and severer punish
ment is still the demand of society
it will still listen to the death shrek
of the violently murdered.
Punishment of the criminal will

geance and superiority demands. With
the killing of the killer we react with
sadistic pleasure. And we will not
admit that in spite of all the tortures
and death we inflict upon the Grim.
mails we catch, crime still flourishes
Why? Because punishment cannot
eradicate the anger, the hatred, the
greed, the disregard for the human
virtues of kindness, affection, mercy
and forgiveness. The virtues of the
normal i'm the criminal have been
distorted, twisted-a machine out OF
order. Whose is the real guilt? Is
the anti-social alone responsible for
his anti-social madness? Will the
public lash transform his anger into
human love? Will the condemnation
and hatred of vengeful society
straighten the twisted emotions OF
the killer? If so, society has tried

Three basketball games were played
in Sandstone Tuesday evening. All
were exciting and much enjoyed by
large attendance. The first game
was between Moose Lake and Sand
stone second teams. The game ended

In the game between Sandstone's

a close game and fast, ending by a
score Of Is to IA in favor of Sandstone.
The last game was between the
local town team and Willow River
town team. This proved to be a
real thriller. the score being so to SO
in favor of the visitors.

GROUNDING DEGREES
SOME MORE WINTER

The old proverbial ground hog
orders six more weeks of winter
weather in this section of the
country since Saturday was about
the first sunshiny day for this part
of the state for some time. AS
result of this very nice day Mr.
Grounding came out of his hole as
is his annual custom. took look
around and quickly scampered
back for another snooze between
his blankets,-for he had seen his
shadow.
OF course it is all very certain
that if Mr.. Grounding does come
out again the middle of March. he
might again be inclined to return
to his hole for his woolens before
fOraging around.

NOT JOE, BUT JACK
LICKED MAX BAER
One Time King Of the Prize Ring
Was Put Out Of Business by
John Barleycorn.

Because Of the eloquent tenn
perance lecture contained there
in, the following from the pen on
Thomas HaStWen in a recent Is
sue of the Sheridan lWyo.) News
is reproduced below:
He Knocked Out Max Baer-A
picture in my daily recently,
showed the dethroned champion,
Max Baer, seated with his wife in
a New York grill room drinking

this was the chief reason why
the one time king of the prize ring
made such a pitiful showing
against the colored contender,
Joe Louis. Without any such in
tention, of course, the publication
of the picture referred to above,
and the press comments that per-
sisted in relation to Baer, teach
the best kind of a lesson in tenn
perance and abstinence from in
toxicating liquor for the young
man and the young woman OF this
country. Baer, at one time. was
the king of the prize ring. The

3 Beautiful u. s. Birds
Nearing Extinction

Three of Americas largest and
most beautiful birds are so sadly
depleted in numbers that some
observers believe them to be in
danger of extinction.
They are the whooping crane,
biggest of native birds; the great
white heron, biggest of native
herons, and the trumpeter swan,
the bigger of the two native
swans.
The situation is probably most
critical in the case of the great
white heron, according to DR.. Her.
bert Friedman, curator of birds
at the Smithsonian Institution.
Abundant in Florida until this
year, the snowy fowl suffered
greatly during the last Caribbean
hurricane. When bowling winds
swept across the Florida keys, wip,
ing out towns and killing many
war veterans in Government en-.
campments, natural life was also
seriously harmed.
