SOLDIER WEARS HIS
UNIFORM; IS ARRESTED

The Comfery Times tells of a young
man from Iowa who came to that town
with his uniform on, got drunk, was
arrested and had a, hard time getting
out of the trouble. The young man
had been discharged from a training
camp, and was given fifteen days to
return to his home and exchange this
soldier clothes for the garb OF an ordinary
citizen. He didn't do this, but came on
to Minnesota on an automobile trip.
At Comfrey he was arrested on charge
of being under the influence of liquor.
Later the federal authorities were COM
municated with and United States
marshal visited Comfrey to make an
investigation. The young fellow was
finally allowed to 60 upon his promise
to comply with the law in reference to
the proper clothes to wear.
It may not be generally known, but
it is a prison offense for a civilian to
wear the uniform of any branch of the
United States military or naval service.

IN FOOD CONSERVATION.
Federal Representative Showing
How TO Cut Cost Of Living. s..

I 50
Miss Lois Lombard of the State
Farm school, at Midway, Monday
afternoon began q series Of demon
strations in food conservation at the New
Tim high school building, which is at
tracing many housewives and others
and is creating considerable interest

demonstrations will end next Friday
afternoon, and there will be an evening
session Thursday evening.
Miss Lombard, who is in the employ
Of the federal government, is giving
comprehensive demonstrations in the
conservation of food, which are accom-
panied by lectures on the subjects. They
are especially interesting in these days
of the high cost of living.
The lectures and demonstrations deal
with the saving of the meat and wheat
supply, for the purpose Of reducing the
present high prices. The preparations Of
various articles of food is shown, and
the lectures deal with making breads
from corn meal, rolled oats, etc. Pota-
toes are even mixed with wheat flour
in the making Of bread, which is said to
be very palatable. Miss Lombard also
discusses the saving Of meat. Cen
sevation of sugar and fats is discussed at
length, and many valuable pointers given
to those who attend the demonstrations
The lectures and demonstrations are
free to any who wish to attend, and the
public is urged to be present at every
session.

FREIGHT CAR SERVICE
is GREATLY IMPROVED

Feright statistics for July, the latest
month for which official figures are
available, show that the railroads sue
cessfully handled 20.2 per cent more
freight that month than for the same
period last year. The figures that tell
the story CT this accomplishment have
just been compiled from railroads having
220,054 miles of track or approximately
eighty-fve per cent of the entire trackage
Of the United States. In July last year,
these railroads gave service equivalent
to carrying 27,809,430,998 tons Of freight
one mile, while this year they carried
80, 434, 368, 526 tons one mile; an increase
of exactly 20.2 per cent.
This great increase in service was
rendered with an almost negligible in
crease in the amount of equipment used.
The number Of freight locomotives in
service in July last year, for instance,
was 29,883, while this year the number
was 30,277, an increase of only 1.3 per
cent. Last year in July, there were
2,2O4,902 freight cars in service while
this year the number was 2,256, 621; an
increase of 2.3 per cent.
One of the most encouraging marks
of progress and one for which the rail-
road employees are entitled to credit, is
the great reduction in the number of
freight cars and locomotives in the shops
or awaiting repairs. Last year in July,
there were 144,478 freight cars under
or awaiting repairs, while this year, only
1876, 1861 were in that condition a decrease
of six per cent. Freight locomotives in
the repair shop or awaiting repairs in
July last year, amounted to 1850 and
in July this year only 4,122 needed shop
attention, a reduction of 7.6 per cent.
Last year the July statistics showed that
railroad locomotives ran an average OF
"a. 4 miles per day; in July this year, they
made 68.8 miles. Freight cars made an
average of 1854 miles in July last year
and this year they made 28.3 miles, an
increase Of 7.2 per cent.

MOVING PICTURES MUST
PAY PART OF WAR TIA,
New Ulm Theaters Will Stand .
Part Of Extra Expense.

When the new war tax goes into effect
tomorrowit will cost more to see picture
show. The law provides for the collec-
ton at the box office of every theater
in the country of cent for each 10
cents or fraction thereof, paid for a
ticket. That is, when you buy 10
cent ticket, cent of the money goes
to the government; for a Is or 20 cent
ticket cents belongs to the government.
Most of the theaters of the country
have notified their patrons that the
amount of the tax will be added to the
price of the ticket, some OF them even
taking advantage Of the tax to boost the
price of The tickets cents on each 10
and Is cent ticket, the management
pocketing the extra 3 or 4 cents. But
not so with the New Ulm moving
picture houses. Managers Woodmansee
of the Ruby and Juni of the Armory
announce that the prices at all weekday
performances will not change. TO
partially reimburse them for the war
tax, the prices at the Sunday perform
ances will be raised cents on each ticket.
This plan will be in effect for the present,
at least, and if it is found that the
burden is not too heavy it will be con-
tinued. Otherwise the actual amount
of the tax will be added to the price of
each ticket.
1t is not believed that the average
theater patron will object to paying
his share of the war revenue. It is
stated by men who know that the
average admission prices to the moving
picture theaters is lower in the United
States than in any other country in the
world, and the managers as rule feel
that it is hardly fair that the theaters
should stand all of the war tax out of
their own pockets. In other cities the
public is expected to not only pay, it all,
but little more, while in New Uln the
managers are willing to stand a part
of it themselves.

SOUTH DAKOTA PREACHERS
STOLEN CAR RECOVERED

The Sleepy Eye police have sue
ceeded in making one poor South Dakota
preacher happy. On October 1, the
Ford car belonging to Rev. William j.
Vincent, rector of the Episcopal church
at Mitchell, S. D., was stolen from in
front of the church. The minister gave
the car up for lost, and wondered how
he was ever going to be able to get
another. But then he didn't know the
thieves were headed towards Sleepy
Eye, or he wouldn't have been SO easily
discouraged. The Twentieth Century
horse thieves arrived at Sleepy Eye
during the street fair six days after
stealing the South Dakota car, and at
that place they picked out a fivver
more to their liking and made an even
trade, while the owner wasn't looking,
and got away with it. In the abandoned
car was found soiled envelope bearing
the address of the Rev. Mr.. Vincent
at Mitchell, and he was communicated
with by Chief Of Police Maloney, with
the result that week ago the once de
jected divine showed up at Sleepy Eye
smiling and happy.
He Immediately started back on his
$50 mile journey, driving the car that
he supposed was lost forever.
The thieves, with the Sleepy Eye mans
car, have not yet been located, and it is
quite doubtful if the owner will be as
fortunate as the South Dakota minister.
