ase 12 : SUCCESSFUL MEETINGS HELD Barker-Andrews Revival Meetings At Methodist Episcopal Church Are Well Attended. The revival meetings which have been held at the Methodist Episco- pal church the past week have sur- passed /all expectations and Rev. Barker, who has charge of the work, states the attendance is good and much interest has been shown. Rev. Barker has been in revival work for the past thirty years and the meet- ings which he has conducted have been so successful his services. are in great demand. Prof Andrews, who has charge of the song service, is a harpist of considerable ability and his renditions on the harp each eve- ning are the delight of the audience. Thes@ gentlemen have been con- ducting a series of revivals through- out the northwest and the Barker- Andrews meetings have become fa- mous in religious circles. Only by reason of an Iowa date! being can- celled was Rev. Dr. Briggs enabled to secure them for Grand Rapids, their, services being in such great demand. Rev. Barker is an enter- taing and forceful speaker amd has kindly consented to remain at least over Sunday. Burglarized the Buffet. The Royal Buffet, conducted by Cal Gilman on Kindred avenue, was entered sometime Monday “night or Tuesday morning, and the till reliev- ed of its contents, $13.65. Entrance to the building was made through a rear window which had previously ‘been broken.Whoever the culprit may have been he was evidently acquaint- ed with the premises, as he procur- ed a long pole with a hook on one end which is used to throw the elec- tric light switch and which was kept in a place that a stranger would not likely discover. This was used to turn off the light that ‘was left burning behind the bar. Suspicion is directed against a couple of young men about town, and Marshal McCormick says that an arrest will be made if cer- tain things develop that he antici- pates Bringing In Settlers. W. H. Stillamacher of Des Moines, Jowa, was ‘in town last week. He brought with him from the Hawkeye state a number of land seekers, some of whom secured tracts of Itas- ca county real estate. Some time ago Mr. Stillamacher bought quite a tract of cut-over lands from the Reishus- Remer Land company, and had occa: sion to see much of the best agricul- tural holdings of this company. He is now one of the most enthusiastic boosters for Itasca county to be founc anywhere. And, by the way, he is no novice in setting forth the good qual- ities of a good proposition in real estate. Stillamacher says when he knows he’s right he knows he can do business, and ‘he proposes to bring a big settlement of Iowa’s best farm- ers to till Itasca county soil. Inspecting Highways. County Commissioners McWilliams and Mullins made a tour of inspec- tion of the public highway west of Weller’s Spur last Saturday. They found about two and a half miles of road that need immediate repairs and will recommend at the mext meeting that the neces- sary work be ordered done at once. This will mae the road between Grand Rapids and Deer River in very good condition for travel. They also visited the county fair grounds and found the work progressing very sat- isfactorily under the direction of Contractor Arscott. Not a Bit Worried. , P. A. McEachin, former clerk of the village of Keewatin, was a Grand Rapids visitor last Wednesday. Mr. McEachin says he is not in the least worried over the alleged shortage in his accounts with the village. He had the money in his possession and still has because the proper officials refused to accept it from him when he made a legal tender. The amount is onlyt $160. The same is true in the case of Treasurer Good, who is alleged to be short $490. Small Blaze Sunday.

Third—The foundation of the dairy industry in the farmers’ co-operative ereamery. The local market can buy the products of a few herds, Dut when every farmer in the community is dairying the jar and print butter becomes a drug on the market. With the creamery, the butter of two hun- dred herds can be packed in tubs, put on board the car and sold in New York with less trouble to the farmer than. selling a five pound jar at the grocery store. Creameries are betmg built in Northeastern Minnesota, though not as many as there should be. Some of the creameries in Northeastern Minnesota are forging ahead to be pmong the first in the state. Others are struggling hard to exist, due to a lack of patronage and not infre quently a lack of appreciation and support. If I could, I would place the follow- img lines where every farmer in Northeastern Minnesota might read them every day for a year: “The dairy industry is the most profitable branch of all agriculture, and it may be made as profitable in Northeasterr Minnesota as anywhere on earth.” The high prices of butter enjoyed by every farmer who sells it is large- ly due to the farmers’ co-operative creameries in other sections of the state and country. The success of the dairy industry in Minnesota—the industry that has given Minnesota more distinction and success than any other industry in the state—has been wholly due to the farmers’ co-operative creameries. A co-operative creamery that brings the farmers the highest price for butter, removes from the burden of tired farm women the work of but- ter making and gives to a community a higher commercial standing in the business world, is worth striving for, worth appreciating, worth supporting, even at! the expense of a few dollars on the start.” When; a creamery is to be started in your community, help to start it; stand by it; fight for it, if necessary, after it is started.
