ma Ring a good showing
That milking is gaining in favor
as an "outdoor sport” In the sum
mer and "indoor sport” in the win
ter is evidenced by the showing
made by the local creamery under
the management or Nielsen Broth
ers. According to Peter B. Neil
sen, who has been in charge of the
creamery for two years past, they
are now purchasing about seVen
times the amount of cream they did
two years ago. At that time, it was
hardly possible for the creamery to
supply the local stores with butter.
Now about 2,000 pounds of butter
are churned each week, and it is
with difficulty that Nielsen Broth
ers succeed in gathering in all the
cream that awaits the coming of the
cream-gathering car. The increased
business is due te the revival of
milking to a certain extent, but the
enterprise of the proprietors of the
creamery also has something to do
with it. —Kimballton Record.

SPECTACULAR PRODUCTION
“Aphrodite,” a Romance of Ancient
Egypt. to Be Presented in Den
Moines at An Early Date.
Surpassing even advance notices
and clinching for all time its claim
to supremacy in the realm of stage
spectacles, “Aphrodite,” with its
mingling of color and pagan music,
its thrilling exotic scenes, its multi
colored, gorgeous, gauzy costumes.
Its ancient Egyptian atmosphere and
its eye-satisfying cast of bewitching
beauties, opens a week's engage
ment at the Des Moines Coliseum,
Monday. January 9, with matinees
Wednesday and Saturday.
No similar production has ever
approached this stupendous specta
cle in splendor. The daring of its
producers, the thrilling ingenuity
of its director and the genius of its
remarkable massed ' effects, togeth
er with a large cast endowed with
ability in abundance and pulchri
tude to spare make “Aphrodite” the
supreme spectacle.
Flashing, kaleidoscopic scenes,
bevies of fascinating sirens display
ing their physical charms through
coverings of filmy lace, breath-taking
stage settings done with lavish taste,
and seductive melodies driplng from
the instruments of an augmented
orchestra all blend to make the mas
sive production a splendid evening’s
entertainment.
An important fact in connection
with the presentation of the "Aph
rodite” at the Coliseum will be the
erection of a monster stage to ac
commodate the lavish production. A
corps of special mechanics have ar
rived in Des Moines and all will be
In readiness for the opening per
formance Monday evening, January
9th. The entire lighting system of
the Coliseum will be overhauled and
connections made cor fifty front
lamps, and for an additional electric
heating plant which will augment
the present facilities.
Owing to the great length of the
performance and size of the produc
tion, night curtains are announced
for 8 o’clock and matinees Wednes
day and Saturday afternoons at 2
o’clock.
Special arrangements have been
made to handle the out T of-town mall
orders and prompt return of desir
able seats will follow the receipt of
all requests when accompanied by
check, money order or drart.

RACK FROM CANADA
Mr. and Mrs. Albert J. Mantz ar
rived in Kimballton Saturday after
noon after an exile of almost three
years near Belle Plaine. Saskatche
wan, Canada. According to Mr.
Mantz the Canadian farmers have
not felt the hard times with which
this country is afflicted, to any no
ticeable degree, but they will un
doubtedly have a taste of them next
year. The Canadian farmers sold
their gratin last Jsftl lust after
threshing, when prices were still
good, but this year prices are down
considerably. Mr. and Mrs. Mantz
will spend a few months visiting
with relatives and friends here and
at Audubon before returning to their
Canadian home. —Kimballton Re
cord.
