Askov Creamery
Shows A Slight
Volume Decrease
Annual Meeting of Farmer
Group is Held Tuesday
With Fair Attendance.

The weather was fine and the roads
good for the annual meeting of the
Askov Creamery Association held
Tuesday in the D. B. S. hall. The
meeting, as a deviation from recent
practice, started after the noon hour
and no dinner was served, although
afternoon lunch was served by the
ladies of the Cooperative Guild.
First order of business consisted
of the usual reading of minutes by
the secretary after which the annual
statement of the association was read
and discussed The financial report
showed that 399,852 pounds of butter
had been made as compared to 405,-
113 pounds in 1888. The average
price for butterfat paid patrons for
sweet cream was 2642 cents as COM
pared to 1887 cents in 1888. The
total expense per pound of butter for
the year was 1886 as compared to
2.142 in 1888.
Other Business Transacted.
Among the items of business trans
acted at the meeting was one discon-
tinuing the use of the $40 and $40
checks to patrons and one author
izing paying out of the 1885 equity
reserve.
A vote was taken on the discon-
tinuance of hauling cream on Sun
days, but those for the Sunday serv-
ice won the vote and the creamery
will continue as in the past to take
cream on Sunday.
Election of Officers.
The creamery board for the COM
ing year as chosen by the meeting
will consist of N. P Nielsen as pres
ident; Carl K. Larsen as vice pres
ident; Chris Frederiksen as secre-
tary-treasurer; and Werner Clausen,
Alvin Jensen, Jens Krogh and Einar
Jensen, directors. The latter two
succeed Clemmen Christensen and
l. A. Ecklund who did not wish re-
election.
Striegl and Lindvig Present.
S. A. Striegl, director from this
district on the Land O'Lakes board
and Ben Lindvig, fieldman, were
present and gave talks, Mr.. Striegl
on the marketing of farm products
and Mr.. Lindvig, report of the dis
trict's activities.
Mr. Striegl gave as his opinion the
decline in butterfat price is caused
by the activity of spectators.
He said that three things govern
the price of butterfat and named
them as being CD supply and de-
mand, (2) consumers willingness to
buy at certain price, and 60 spec
ulative activity. He said he is con-
WINGED that the latter is the recent
cause of the tumbling of butterfat
prices.
Mr.. Lindvig reported that this dis
trict's buttermakers have won second
place in the annual efficiency contest
and that the district still has 80 men,

son, Norway was charged with hav-
ing neglected its duties as neutral
state.
1t does seem, at the present writ
ing, that the inspecting Norwegian
officers had made a rather superficial
examination of the German vessel
which at Bergen was given permis-
sion to traverse Norwegian waters
along the coast. But-and that's the
peculiar feature of which the Brit
ish did not lose Saskatchewan the
Norwegians were convinced that the
'Altmark" was not an auxiliary war
ship, they had one of their own coast
guard vessels following right in it's
wake. Why? ask the British.
Unrestricted Warfare.
Germany, furious because of the
episode in Jossingfjord, Immediately
proclaimed unrestricted naval war
fare against both belligerent and neu-
trail shipping; any British or French
vessel found anywhere would be
sunk without warning, and the same
fate would be melted out to neutral
vessels conveyed by British or French
WarshipS. There would be no mercy
shown, no humaneness, no considera-
ton of any kind. 1t was to be war
to the hilt!
Not many hours after that dec
laration a number of neutral ships
were sunk, and the British destroyer,
Daring" was torpedoed, going to
the bottom of the sea with-as at
first reported-177 men.
Finnish War.
The "Altmark" affair overshad-
owed for while almost everything
else on the turbulent international
stage, but not to the extent that
Finland's war of defense against Rus
STA was obscured in the minds of the
public.
That war entered a new and very
serious phase, for it appeared that
the incessant and tremendous Rus
sian offensive against the Manner
helm line on the Karelian isthmus
was about to succeed. The Russians
had penetrated some parts of the
first line of the Finnish defenses and
were not far from the very important

Does the perfect lady" have as much appeal for men as the woman who doesn't bother very much about lady-like qualitiess
 Gladys George has decided that the "lady" has infinitely more ap- peal, if she Is careful not to lose . few important qualities that are often sacrificed by women who are determined to Do perfect ladies.
 "She mustn't let her passion for always doing and saying the right thing entirely squelch her natural impulses for doing sudden little kindnesses,
 SHE ALWAYS USED TO BE THE PERFECT LADY"
 "she must not lose her viva ciousness and enthusiasm in an effort to Dc poised,
 "She has to watch out for stuffi- ness. She'll become Stuffy if she turns up her nose at everyone who isn't her type.
 "There is a little danger of her losing her sense of humor if she takes being . lady too seriously.
 And she must not let her living fall Into too rigid routine. That Is, she should be willing to try new things"
 So says pretty and pert Miss George after thinking the matter over carefully.
 Miss George, who enacted c series Of unladylike characters, has 6 sweet and delicately modelled face when you see it bare of tho stage makeup that turns her Into the type that gives an actress Q chance to "cut loose" and net without re. straint
 Although she likes her bad woman roles, she thinks it is funny she is playing them. Until just e few years ago, she always played the perfect lady"

DO YOU PARDON MY BACK" IF IT'S PRETTY?

Will the fact that her lips are beautifully made up make anyone excuse any girl for talking when her mouth is full of food2 Or that the back of her coiffure is very handsome excuse for her turning her back on her escort and carrying on Q long conversation with people ct the next table?
 Doesn't any woman have to be prettier than any one we've seen yet to be able to get away with giving orders to the taxi driver instead of waiting for the man with her to do 1t: brushing rudely past people in the movies without saying pardon me-; bawling out waiter in 6 loud tone of voice; or forgetting to write her thank.you notes promptly2
