Fifty-four days before Christmas. It looms up ahead of us and the problem must soon be faced of what to spend and where to spend it. There should be but one answer to this question. Prosperity is with us again; there- fore let us make this a joyful Christ- mas to one and all. Let us make it a prosperous Christ- mas to this-city by buying from our local stores, by keeping our money at home. = A liberal spirit of giving this Christmas will restore confidence and enhance our optimistic feeling for the future. The patronizing of home merchants will enable us to increase the pros- perity of our city and will give each and every one of us a feeling of just pride in the fact that we are ‘“good citizens all around.” Let’s make it a “home Christmas” and let’s begin now to keep that money in circulation at home. Do your Christmas shopping early. COW BRINGS $10,000,000. Anyone who doubts the import- ance of thd cow, should consider that the Minnesota dairy cow brings her owner $100,000,000 annually accord- ing to figures compiled by J. J. Far- rel, state dairy and feed commission- er. In only two states, New York and Wisconsin, do the cows bring their owners g larger-gross return. Next below, Minpesota is Iowa while Illinois is fifth.- In quality, Minne- sota is first. Of the $100,000,000 earned for the farmers by the cows, nearly $$40,000,000 was paid through creameries for butter fat, while the balance includes the products of cheese factories, all cream, all milk sold or used for home consumption and the values of the colves produced each year.—Austin Herald. ACTION NECESSARY. The Commercial club and the Mer- chants’ association will hold impor- tant. meetings tomorrow. Every member should attend these meet- ings. Two important subjects will come up for discussion and for dispo- sition. 5 The first probably will be in re- gard to the present railway service that is given Bemidji and the sec- ond will be in regard to the placing of a new Federal building. The disposition of both matters will be vital to the welfare of Be- midji and action is necessary imme- diately. Of the total foreign-born- white population 10 years old and older in Minnesota in 1910 there were 89,- 860 who were unable to speak the English, as compared with 68,894 in 1910.
