7 N spite of the drench-
ing rains that have
continued to food
Milford, they have
- not been sufficient to
discourage the lovely petunias
that grow in so many yards.
There was a time when petunias
confined themselves to the very
pale and Indifferent shades Of
blue, pink and white. Not so any
more. They make a splash Of
color wherever they are grow
ing. A beauty spot they have
made is around the bird bath in
the side yard of Mrs. Harry
Brakeley, Gorgeous deep purple
and vivid pink are the predomi-
mating colors. In riotous pro-
fusion they are growing in the
yard of Mrs. William Jones in
South Milford. Mrs. Davis Grier
often has the beautiful fringed
ones. The single ones require
little care and are sure to repay
bountifully for their place in the
garden.

Farm Loan Body
Will Hold Meeting

Two new departures will mark the
annual meeting of the Sturgeon Lake
National Farm Loan Association
which is to hold its annual meeting
on Friday, July /, 1888, at Sturgeon
Lake at the village hall, says Sec
retary-Treasurer Oscar Thilquist, who
announced the calling of the meeting
this week, at p. m.
The association is one of group
of 10 associations in the locality and
MIR. Thilquist is joint secretary for
each one in the group. The meeting
July l, 1888, is the first to be held,
but each of the other associations
will hold its own annual meeting
later, for each preserves its own iden-
tity. Dates for the other meetings
will be announced in a short time
Important to the members will be
the annual report of the secretary
treasurer who will give a summary
of the activities and analyze the finan-
cial condition of the association. In
addition to charts which will set forth
the main features of his report, Mr..
IlllHulSl WILL lldNS dNdiidOiC iiioSii
other information for the answer
ing of any questions that may be
asked
First of the new features at this
meeting, will be the new rule of zone
member-one vote" Legislation en-
acted in 1887 provided that hereafter
each member will have one vote
only, the old rule being that mem
bers might have from one to 20 votes
according to the number of shares
held with maximum of 20 votes
for any one member). Each member
holds one share in the association
for each 500 of his loan. With the
new rule in effect everyone is on an
equal footing and keeping of the
voting record will be greatly Simpli-
fled. The change is in line with max
ing the associations as completely CO.
operative as possible.
The other new feature is that direc-
tors will not all be elected for one
year, but for varying periods pro-
viding overlapping terms so there
will always be some old members on
the board AT this annual meeting
two directors will be chosen for three
years, two for two years, and one
for one year. Hereafter members will
elect only directors to succeed those
retiring or to fill vacancies.
