The Agricultural Credit Corpora tion of Minneapolis is an organiza tion of companies that have large fi nancial interests throughout the Northwest, such as railroad firms and others who are interested in seeing the farmers of the country become In order to get more prosperous. this financial aid. it is necessary that each community have a committee ap pointed, consisting of at least three outstanding men, one of whom will act as secretary to correspond with the corporation with reference to pur chases. This committee, of course, will pass upon all applications and recommend the same to the corpora tion. The work of this committee is important, as the application and the committee's report largely determine the action of the corporation in granting its loans. Among the principal objects of the livestock work of this corporation is the assisting cf the individual farmer' and thereby the community. The committee recommends such farmers as have good reputations and who are willing to work and take proper care of the animals, and who have a reasonable chance to make a success with the animals and their farming operations in general. The aid which is being rendered by the corporation in the loans it makes, if properly placed, should be of lasting benefit to the community and in time be of general benefit through influencing the increase of land values, as well as in other respects. At the time loans are made, mort gages are taken on the animals pur chased and upon their increase, and possibly additional security based up on the financial showing of the ap plicant. Security in general will be as follows: 20 per cent cash and se curity on animals purchased, or 10 per cent cash and additional security The Big Bang! 99 CELEBRATE JULY 4TH IN THE GOOD, OLD FASHIONED WAY Firecrackers!

If the animals are purchased locally, it will be nec essary to charge only 6 per cent to cover the general expense of handling and insurance.

NEW FOUNTAIN AT SUGAR DOWl A strictly modern soda fountain, the first of its kind to be brought to this section, was installed at the Su gar Bowl a few days ago by John Kapomas, the proprietor. The cost was in excess of $2,000. The new fountain is a "Mechan-i cold," and for it 100 per cent of re frigération is claimed. It is elec trically operated, automatic, and as near trouble-proof as up-to-date en gineering design can make it. Its chief advantage is its cleanliness, the liquid refrigeration dispensing with the usual salt and ice packing and making for the highest sanitary con ditions. In appearance it is extremely attractive, being of full marble con struction. A large storage capacity permits the carrying of a full stock of Ice cream, ices, and the like, and the uni form quality of the goods dispensed is consistently maintained. Accord ing to Mr. Kapamos, the system is one of the best safe-guards yet de vised for the consumer, because all danger of possible contamination of such perishable products is virtually eliminated. AWARDED CUSTODY OF MINOR CHILD Decree of divorce, with custody of a minor child, Virginia Mae Hoffman, was granted Robert E. Hoffman from Adeline S. Hoffman, by Judge B. B.

The two wer e married at Buffalo, S. D., Oc tober 27, 1919. Seth F. Bohart was attorney for the plaintiff. f OUT CAMPAIGNING. Seth P.

I TWO RITTER ROOT HERDS TAKE LEAD l With cwo of its herds winning top places in both the large and the small herd divisions, the Bitter Root Cow Testing association most impressively celebrated its re-crganization and its Ireturn to active testing work last month. David Lea and Son's herd of purebred Holsteins placed first among the herds of more than 15 cows under test in the state with an average production of 41.4 pounds of butter fat and 1,297 pounds of milk, and Archie McKillop's herd of pure bred Jerseys won the same honor in the small hetd class with an average production of 50.4 pounds of butter fat and 888 pounds of milk. The records made by the leading cow testing association herds during May are among the highest ever re corded since organized testing work was started in Montana. In both the large and small herd divisions production averages were particularly high. i ■ *. * i : i m * /:•* % EMBARASSMENT "I knew you," said the reminiscent friend of the family, "when you were a little girl in short dresses.
