London, June 3.—Picking Its way
from its base in the Kiel canal the
German high sea fleet on Wednesday
afternoon emerged into the North sea
and off the coast of Jutland engaged a
British fleet throughout the afternoon
and night in what probably was the
greatrest naval battle in the world's
history so far as tonnage engaged and
tonnage destroyed was  concerned.
When the battle ended Great Britain had lost tlie battle cruisers Queen
Mary, Indefatigable and Invincible,
the cruisers Defense, Black Prince
and Warrior and eight torpedo boat
destroyers, while the German battleship Pommern had been sent to the
bottom by a torpedo and the cruiser
Wiesbaden sunk by the British gunfire.
In addition several German torpedo
craft were missing and^ the small
cruiser Frauenlob had last been seen
badly listed and was believed to have
gone to the bottom. The losses have
all been admitted by Great Britain
and Germany.
Warspite Sunk, Germans Say.
Aside from Great Britain's conceded losses Germany claims that the
British battleship Warspite, sister ship
of the Queen Elizabeth and one of the
largest and most powerful ships afloat,
had been sunk, that the battleship
Marlborough, a vessel of 25,000 tons,
had been hit by a torpedo, and a submarine had been destroyed.
Great Britain also added to Germany's acknowledged losses with the
claim that one dreadnought of the
German Kaiser class—vessels of 24,-
700 tons and carrying a complement of
1,088 men—had been attacked and destroyed by British torpedo craft, lhat
another, battleship of the same class
was believed to have been sunk by
gunfire, that one battle cruiser had
been blown up and two others damaged and that a submarine had been
sent to the bottom.
That the casualties in the fighting
off Jutland were heavy is Indicated by
the fact that of the crew of some 900
on board tlie Indefatigable only two
men are known to have been saved.
The censor is withholding permis
sion to correspondents to send out
stories from London.
BRITISH SAY ENEMY
SHIPS RAN FOR PORT
London, June 5. — The text of the
British admiralty announcement follows, in part:
"On the afternoon of Wednesday,
May 31, a naval engagement took
plaoe off the coast of Jutland. The
British ships on which the brunt of
the fighting fell were the battle cruiser fleet and some cruisers and light
cruisers, supported by four fast battleships.
"Among those the losses were
heavy. The Gorman battle fleet, aided by low visibility, avoided a prolonged action with our main forces.
As soon as they appeared on the scene
the enemy returned to port, though not
ceiving severe damage from
our battleships.
"The battle cruisers Queen Mary, in
dcfnt! and    Invincible   and  the
cruisers   I and   Black   Prince
wc re -'-;'■
ie    Warrior    was   disabled   and
bi ins'  towed »1 to
be abandoned by her crew. It is also
he destroyers Tlpperary.
Turbulent, Fortune, Sparrow Hawk
and Ardent were lost and six others
are not pel accounted, for. No British
battleships    or   light    cruisers    were
"The enemy's losses were serious.
At least one hattie cruiser was destroyed ami one severely damaged."

News From The
County  Seat
Ignace   Gamradt,   9-year-old   son   of
Mr. and Mrs. Max Gamrailt of 504
Third street southeast, was accidentally shot Monday afternoon and is at
the hospital in a critical condition.
The injured boy was hunting gophers east of the city with an older
brother, Max, age 11, who was carrying a 22-calibre rifle. Tlie boy with
the rifle was walking in the rear with
the weapon over his shoulder, the muzzle pointing forward. In some manner
he stumbled or the rifle caught on
something and was discharged, the
bullet entering the left side of the boy
ahead.
The older boy took his brother on
liis back and carried him to the slaughter house of the Little Falls Packing
company where his father, one of the
owners of the packing company, was
working. He was placed in a car and
hastened to the hospital.
His condition was such that it was
not considered saie to operate until
10 o'clock Monday night, when the operation was performed and the hemorrhages checked by tying an artery.
The boy passed a fairly god night and
is resting easily this afternoon. The
bullet struck him three inches below
and just behind the left armpit, glanced off a rib and took a somewhat downward course through the body. It has
not been recovered. Bleeding shows
that a lung was penetrated, but it is
thought that the kidneys were untouched.
FIRE  DESTROYS   PEDLEY  HODSF
Fire Thursday afternoon entirely
destroyed the residence east of tlie
city belonging to the William Pedle;
estate. The fire department was called out and the truck responded, getting to the fire within'five minute!
after the alarm was received, but
there was no way of getting water on
the five and by the time the firemen
were go!ting it under control, thr
chemical of the truck was emptied
and it was necessary to go back to the
Seventh street station for the other
chemical. By the time the second
chemical was put in (service tlie Same
had  nearly destroyed the house.
The building is a total less, but al
the furniture was taken out withou'
being damaged. The house was on the
Pedley farm, a mile and a half east
of the city limits. It was insured for
enough to cover thc loss.

Quite an excitement took place in
Genola last. Sunday afternoon, about 5
oYlotk, when we learned that .lohn
Hansmnn's house was on fire. The
fire started upstairs in a basket tilled
with clothes and soon the Barnes had
spread   to   the   floors   and     walls     and
burned all the clothes except what the
family were wearing at the time. All
the dishes were broken in the rush to
",et things out. Mr. Hansman saw the
smoke on his way home from Fish
lake, where lie had been spending the
afternoon. Some of tlie neighbors had
rushed in and extinguished the flames
when the alarm was turned in at Genola. Our tire department was soon
out and on the spot, but we are sorry
to say that our boys did not get the
chance to show their ability.
Made Two Million
Pounds of Butter
■risou   county   has   IS   ereameries
which made a total of 1,955,199 pounds
of butter during L916 for which the
patrons ot' the creameries were paid
$476,102.84, according to a statement
by J. .1. Fanell. commissioner of the
dairy  and  food   department.
No figures were given for the 1914
production and comparison is impossible, but the record for last year is a
good one.
They Cooperate;
Cream Prices Up
Most cooperative ereameries in Minnesota pay their patrons from 5 to 8
cents a pound more for butterfat than
is paid by individual cream-buying establishments. There are 850 creameries
in the state. Of these, 622 are cooperative, 189 individual, and 39 centralized.
A canvass made of the representative creameries of Minnesota for last
March showed that first class cooperative creameries paid from 40 to 42
cents a pound for butterfat, while a
few cooperative creameries that are
noorly supported paid as low as 30
cents a pound. In every case of the
low price, there was a small amount
of business, the creameries making on-
!y about 100 pounds of butter a day.
The creameries that paid 42 cents made
about seven times as much. Many cooperative creameries making from 200
to 300 pounds of butter a day paid
from 37 to 39 cents a pound for butterfat. Farmers who shipped cream
got on an average about 35 cents a
pound.
The cooperative creamery is the only
means whereby the farmers can get
the highest price for butterfat.
Many  cooperative    ereameries    that
are  struggling  along with  only  half  a
nisi ness  could  do well if they got  all
he cream produced  in  the community.
■i   must be remembered that a cooperative   creamery   to   pay   the   top   price
•mist have  at   least   a  certain   amount
">f business.    The creameries that  paid
12 cents a pound  for butterfat   durinf
larch were buying large amounts ev-
iv  day.    One hundred farmers in any
'immunity   with   seven   to   ten      eows
H-ii can have such a creamery in their
•ommunity if they will work together

Barle> and Oats
Good Late Crop
It always pays to work up the
iround and plant seed in drills for for-
ige and root crops in the northern part
>f the state, says M. .1. Thompson of
he Duluth Farm and Station. Even
a new land, the makeshift of scattter-
ng the seed broadcast over the land
ml harrowing in later is a poor,
hough common, p-.actice. Seedlings
nay be thinned later if planted too
thick.
Millet,  often   used  for  forage  when
ither  seedings    arc    delayed    in     the
orthern    part    of the state, does not
Drive     especially     well     there.     Oats
lay be sown up to .Inly 1 and may he
epended   upon   to   make   a   good   hay
crop, Mr. Thompson says.    If an early
variety is sown, they may even  ripen
when  sown  that  late.    Oats,  he  says.
are preferable to millet.
Barley is a filler crop that must be
-aised under different conditions, the
uperintendent of the state farm says,
in St. Louis county one field sown in
barley the last week in July last yen,
produced a crop. This, however, is au
exceptional record.
The possibility oi profitably using
flax as a late-plantea crop has been
overlooked by many farmers in thc
northwest.
Combinations of peas and oats
spring rye, peas and vetch, and green
oats alone are being used in the northeast Minnesota section for early
soiling crops to be fed when the flies
hive the cattle indoors for a part of
Ihe   day. ,  ■:
In deciding between the value of
mangles and rutabagas on northern
Minnesota soils, it should be remembered that while the rutabagas ar.
more dependable, there should be a few
rows at least of mangles, for tin
■hkkens seem to prefer them.

War on Mail
Order Concern
Open warfare between the eountr;
acrchant and the mail order concern
f the count iv which has been in prog

rown more fierce, although bloodless,
uring the past few months may soon
n.l. says the Morris Tribune. A drug
ist  at   Big Stone City, near Ortonville,
as introdu ed a new submarine attack
hieh   threatens  to  sweep   the  mail  or-
er  houses  from  the  trade  seas  unless
hc  supreme  court  hands  down   an  ul
n.atum   and  comes  to  thc  aid of  the
allies—the  mail   order  concerns.   Sear
;   Roebuck   catalogues   are   thc   ships
orpedoed   so   far   although   the   othei
aail order houses have suffered heavy
losses.
Several weeks ago several tons of
^ears & Roebuck catalogues were
dumped at Big Stone City u.ldr.
to farmers near town. They were foi
lowed by other catalogue houses. Tin
iruggist viewed the situation with
ilarni and decided something must he
done. He thought out a plan and ther
'00k a page ad iu the local paper. He
innounced that he would start a BOB
'est in which he would give away a
handsome and valuable phonograph.
Coupons would be given to peoph
bringing in catalogues and price lists
of every description, and to the person
securing the largest number of eon
pons within a stated time he would
give the phonograph. Today lie is da
ing a landoffice business and he Jo"-n t
kaow where he will store all the cata
'ogues. They are worth $18 per ton
baled as old papers. This will more
than par for the phonograph and advertising while the advertising he will
receive will be worth much more. H*

Editor Mellen of the Ortonville
Journal paid the druggist a visit last
week to ascertain the success of the
novel scheme, ami he was astonished
at the revelations. When the druggist
started this contest he had no conception of the developments or the \ ast
amount of good he was doing for the
community. He is striking a deadly
blow at the catalogue houses which
promises to become widespread and
eventually put a stop to free distribution of catalogues. Mr. Mcller
he found the whole front of the store
ami every available space occupied
with catalogues, and the hooks were |
still coming in. The contest had run
three weeks and just getting a start.
Nine tons were counted from Sears &
Roebuck alone ami there were almost
as many from other houses. People
are sending to the houses for more catalogues anil these will soon join the
others at the drug store. Every catalogue is worth so many coupons and it
takes coupons to win the phonograph.
