There's a sort of "it can't be true feeling in the mind of a
farmer who owns a KEYSTON E Silo. It's such a novel
sensation to go, year in and year out, free from the usual
expenses for repairs and up-keep that this feeling of skepticism
is apt to last quite a while, especially if he has formerly
owned the ordinary wooden silo.

Monday the thermometer at the gov
ernment weather station registered 92
degrees in the shade. It was a real sum

JUNE SETTLEMENT
According to County Auditor Louis
G. Vogel this year's June settlement
was the biggest and quickest that he
and County Treasurer H. J. Berg have
ever gotten out. Over $260,000, an
increase of virtually $40,000 since last
year, has been collected in the shape of
taxes since March 1st and this money
had to be apportioned amongthe different
funds.
Altho the tax payers know that there
has been a steady increase in taxes for
many years, still they will be surprised
to learn that tLe taxes have practically
doubled within the last five or six years.
In June 1907 the^e was on -hand for
distribution iu the June settlement,
$113,277.79.^ Three years later tiiis had
increased to $121,704.42. Six years ago
the amount distributed in the June
settlement, was $128,953.01, a little
less than naif of the taxes collected in
this year's June settlement. In 1914
the amount apportioned during the
June settlement had increased to $163,
028.11 and""in the short space of four
years from that time, the taxes-have
increased almost $160,000. &f$. -A
Of the mount so collected nearly
one-half was apportioned to the state
and county funds. Of this amount
the state received approximately $45,000
and the balance all went to the county
for county purposes. The amount ap^
portioned to the state and county was
as follows, to-wit:
State and County Fund
State Revenue $34666.35
State School 11227.91
State Teacher .. 456.41
County Reveni 18418.93

County Road and Bridge ... .42865.57
County Ditch .2609.98
Penalty 157.57
Mtg. Tax... 158.82
$119,689.98
Over one-half of the moneys collected
and apportioned were used for municipal
and school purposes. The total amount
apportioned,to the various municipalities
aggregated the sum of $73,298.94, of
which amount New Ulm, of course, re
ceived the lion's share, approximately
one-fourth. New Ulm's share is almost
one-third more than the combined
apportionment of Sleepy Eye and Spring
field. We append hereto a table show
ing the amounts apportioned among the
various^ municipalities:
New Ulm $18,953.48
Sleepy Eye 7,497.71
Springfield 5,817.89
Comfrey... 1,454.17

'Total .......$73,298.94
For school purposes the sum of $67,
880.76 was collected and apportioned.
Of this amount New Ulm receives over
one-third, namely $25,004.02: This is
practically $10,000 more than the Sleepy
Eye and Springfield «schools receive
together.

JLUCKY AUTO ACCIDENTS.
While George Fischer "Waii standing
looking at a wrecked car in the little
Cottonwood River at the botton* of the
Zick Hill, Christ Dahl ran into, Fischer's
car which he had left standing on the
side of the bridge. Christ was coming
down- the hill at a. very good clip and it
was impossible for him to stop his car in
time to prevent the collision. As a
result of the impact Christ's wife, child
ren and mother were, thrown out. of the
car but no one was seriously hurt. Both
cars were damaged and-it may cost be
tween $50 and $100 to make the nec
cessary repairs. On Fischer's car the
two fenders were taken off. On Dahl's
car the front axle was bent and the
radiator and fender were damaged. The
Dahl car was so badly damaged that it
had to be hauled in and Fred Thiede of
Searles was kind enough to bring the
Dahl family to town.
This happened about seven o'clock
in the evening and shortly before that
this particular place had been a scene
of another auto accident, when a man
from Madelia driving a Villers ear in
which there were three other men and
a woman about 65 years old were on
their way home from New Ulm to
Madelia, where they lived. The driver
tried to make the hill on high but found
that he could not do it and changed to
low.
The car commenced to back down the
hill and the brakes refused to hold. It
kept backing down the hill at a speed
which was increased from moment to
moment. One of the men jumped out
and by means of heavy stones which he
placed in the track of the wheels tried
to stop the car but without avail. It
^N

kept right on backing and finally went
over a 30 foot embankment and came
to_ a sudden stop in about three feet of
water with the others still in the car
Two of the wheels were broken and the
car was still in the water late Tuesday
afternoon. The car can only be gotten
out of the river and up on the bank by
the use of block and tackle and at that it
will be some job. A telephone
Dro]cen off by the car as it was rus
down the hill backward. It was a
miracle that the occupants of th
were not all killed.
