T "X - Saloonkeeper Says He's Honest ; Tombstone , Arizona , claims to have the frankest saloonkeeper in the United States. He keeps the Temple Bar saloon , and advertises his business in a remarkable man ner. He has had cards printed bearing the following words : "Friends and Neighbors : I am grateful for your past favors , and having supplied my store with a fine line of liquors , allow me to in form you that I shall continue to make drunkai , ss , paupers and beg gars for the sober , industrious , re spectable part of the community to support. My liquors will ex cite riot , robbery and bloodshed. They will diminish your comforts , increase your expense and shorten life. I shall confidently , recom mend them as sure to multiply fatal accidents and incurable dis- . * r .eases. They will deprive some oj life , others of reason. They will make fathers fiends , wives wid ows , children orphans and al poor. I will train your sons ir : infidelity , dissipation , ignorance , lewdness , andevery oth er vice. 1 will corrupt the minister of relig ion , obstruct the gospel , defile th ( church and cause as much temporal al and eternal death as I can. * ] will thus accommodate the public it may be at the loss of my nev er dying soul. But I have a fam ily to support , the business pays the public encourages it. I hav < paid my license , and the traffic is lawful , and if I don't sell it some body else will. I Know the bibl < says : Tliou shalt not kill ; n < drunkard shall enter the kingdon of heaven , and I do not expect the drunkard maker is to fare anj better , but I want an easy living and I have resolved to gather thi wages of iniquity and fatten or the ruin of my species. I shall therefore , carry on my business with energy , and do my best tc diminish the wealth of the natioi and endanger the safety of tin state. As my business flourishes in proportion to you r sensuality and ignorance , 1 will do my bes to prevent moral purity and in tellectual growth. Should yoi doubt my ability , I refer you tc the pawn shops , the poor houses the police court , the hospital , th < penitentiary and the gallowj where you find my best customer ; have gone. A sight of them wil convince you that I do what J say Allow me to inform you that yoi are fools and I am an honest saloon keeper. " Carroll (111. ( ) Democrat Arabia Items.

Square Deal Grading : Bales. tl i' inauguration of the hand- separ < i ystem the tendency of the creiiit p ron has been to deliver creini u ! it beat suited his conven ience , tic has also neglected giving thtriatuc proper care. Consequently the general quality or standard of cream haa been lowered. At the same time the patron expected the cream ery company to pay the top price and seemingly did not realize that good cream was essential to make good but ter and that poor butter meant lower prices for butter fat or a loss to the creamery man. From the fact that infrequeucy of delivery and thin cream are the. principal causes for poor quality , we decided on January 1 , 1906 , to grade cream based on the following rules : No. 1 cream would consist of cream that was delivered twice each week in good condition and testing 30 per cent or over. No. 2 cream would consist of cream that was delivered less frequently or testing less than 30 per cent. A differentia * of thiee cents- was paid between Nos. i and 2 , Since the adoption of this plan we have received numerous letters from patrons thru- out our territory protesting against the rules that the same were work ing an injustice , claiming that when they churned a part of their week's cream and delivered the balance in good condition they were forced to take second-grade prices ; others claimed they would deliver a part of their week's cream atone town , the balance to another , and because our records did not show that both deliv eries were made 1so the same agent they were forced to accept second- grade price. Realizing that ill feeling and dis satisfaction have never built up an industry , and knowing that the farm ers as a class are always ready to meet a fair proposition half way and will dc their part if approached in the right manner , we have decided , beginning July 15,1906 , that we would grade all cream delivered at our stations on the merits of its quality instead of anj arbitrary rules , and this means thai the Beatrice Creamery Company haa 'confidence in the cream patrons oJ their territory to do the right thing when properly appealed to. and would ask the attention of all cream pro ducers to a lew simple rules : 1. See that the separator , pails , cans , and all milk utensils are thoroughly - oughly washed and 'scalded before using. 2. Skim the milk as soon as pos sible ufter milking.- 3. Keep the cream screw set to de liver a thick cream and the separator run at the proper speed which will in sure a uniform test. 4 Cool the cream immediately af ter separating , to remove the animal heat , and do not mix warm creau wit'a cold. " 5. Kee"p the cream pail or can ii cold water and when delivering to th station cover the same with a blank et. This will prevent heating the cream in summer or freezing in wintei Last , deliver often. In summing this all up. What wt want is good cream and plenty of it and you will always find us ready tt do the right thing with the right price BEATRICE CREAMERY CO. Normal Notes.
