PRESIDENT JONES WRITES OF
DR.. MURPHY'S ACTIVITY
IN NATTER. .

LII. w. "A. JOueS, eOl. MINNEAPOLIS,
president Of the Minnesota State Board
of Health, takes exception to the plan
of reorganization Of the board, and
especially of a statement sent out by
DR.. I. J. Murphy, secretary Of the Mime
sofa Public Health Commission, and
also of the Public Health Association.
The following statement has just been
issued by DR.. Jones:
Statement by DR.. Jones.
"A letter has been sent out under date
of February ID by DR.. I. J. Murphy,
Secretary Minnesota Public Health Com
mission, and also Secretary Minnesota
Public Health Association, asking sup
port for H. F. IS and S. F. IS, "A Bill to
Reorganize the State Board Of Health
with the statement that this bill was
emphatically endorsed by me-
''It must be understood definitely
that the Minnesota Public Health Asso-
citation has nothing whatever to do with
the Minnesota State Board of Health,
but is purely voluntary subscription
organization. Also that the Advisory
Commission on tuberculosis is distinct
department Of the state having no con-
nection with the State Board of Health.
No Demand for Change.
'sThe president of the State Board Of
Health appeared before the committees
on Civil Administration at hearing Of
this bill and in direct opposition to what
DR.. Murphy has said in his circular
letter, the president emphatically OBJ
jected to the reorganization Of the State
Board of Health, as provided in this bill.
First, because there is no need nor any
demand except on personal grounds, for
the adjustment OF a board which is
making a great record for efficiency, and,
second, because reducing the board
from nine TO five might make it difficult
to obtain quorurns at either regular
meetings or meetings of the executive
committee of the board, and would not
provide for as good representation from
different sections of the state as now
exists. He objected also to the appoint
ment Of the Commissioner of Health for
short terms by the Governor. on the
ground that it would introduce politics
into the board, thing that has never
existed in it's history. Other objections
were made to minor matters in the bill.
"The president also objected to the
limitation Of salary of the Commissioner
to $4,500.00; this, because he felt that the
Board, however created, should be per-
mitted to select the Commissioner and
fix the salary.
Board Stands High.
''In spite of statements to the contrary
by DR.. Murphy and DR.. Tayl:r, the
Minnesota State Board of Health stands
fourth in efficiency in the United States
while holding only sixteenth place in
appropriations; this exclusive Of all ap-
preparations in this or other states de-
voted to tuberculosis sanato-ia and their

YES! LIFT A CORN .
OFF WITHOUT PAINT
Cincinnati authority tells how to drv
up corn or caIIus SO it lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops OF treezone applied directly on
tender, aching corn or callus, stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin.
oif your druggist hasn't any freezong
tell him to get small bottle for ysd
from his wholesale drug house. It is
fine stuff and acts like a charm every
time.

PAPER MAKING TO

ST. PETER MAN TO HEAD BIG
CITY MANUFACTURING
FIRM
STRAW EXPECTED TO TAKE
PLACE OF WOOD PULP IN
WORK.

M. B. Johnson, of St. Peter, has been
elected president Of a company that will
erect a paper mill in Minneapolis, which
will manufacture wrapping paper from
straw, under new process recently in
vented by a Mr.. Lapham, of Winona.
Building VIII Cost $4,000
Arrangements have been made with
the Winona inventor for the erection of
the building, according to the St. Peter
Free Press. The company puts up
$4,000 and the Winona man $4,000,
toward the erection Of the $4,000 build
ing. The company owns a one-third
interest and pays rent on the other two
thirds until such time as it can take over
the whole property.
Construction will begin as soon as
the frost is out of the ground, under the
direction of Mr.. Johnson, who will also
give his personal attention to the manage
ment Of the new company.
Can Make Paper for $50
The company believe they can pay
$500 per ten for straw, and rotten straw
is just as good as bright for their purpose
as it has to be rotted anyway to get the
pulp is shape for paperrnaking. They
believe they can make the paper for $50
ton, counting the royalty which they
VIII. have to pay the inventor of the pro-
cess, 81 ton.
To, Make 5000 Tons First Year
They expect to make 5000 tons the
arst year, which at the present price
OF paper they believe will make them
p1ofit enough SO that they can put up a
mill that in the second year will make
Is tons day.
It is expected that the mill will start
on the first straw of this years crop.
some time in September.
The name Of the new company is the
Minneapolis Pulp and Paper company.
''The process may not be success, ;"
says Mr.. Johnson, ''and I am not ad-
vising my friends to put their money
into it as a sure thing at all. I think it
will be success, however, or 1 would
not be investing in it myself, and I be-
lleve that there is a good chance to make
good big money by the process, for
which we hold the rights for the United
States. No man should put into the ex-
pertinent money which he can not afford
20 Lose, but if he puts it in he stands a
good chance of winning out big. I am
going to do all I can, OF course, to make
it a success. We are issuing $4,000
worth of common stock and 100000
worth of preferred, the preferred stock
to share in any excess profits"
Saturday was 'Orange Day." as pro-
claimed by the Governor Of California,
and a number of New Ulm people re-
ceived boxes of the yellow fruit from
to1mer residents who are now living in
the Golden Gate State" and knew OF
no better or more appropriate way to
remember their friends ''back ho1ne.'
Indications now are that the garden
will be well worth some extra care and
attention this year. Better get plenty
of good seed early and be ready to plant
as soon as possible. Plan for a gooc
variety of vegetables the season thru
from radishes to celery. Don't leave
out the melons.

WIN.
Defeat of Lamberton Gives Chanc
of Championship.

Last Friday evening the high school
basket ball teams won double header
by defeating the Lamb erton boys and
girls teams 22-13 and 2S-8 respectively.
The girls game was an easy victory,
and the New Ulm girls may we'll lay
claim to the district championship if not
to the state girls championship. After
the first few minutes of play the locals
out-played their opponents and only an
occasional basket was allowed. Louise

ten baskets. The lineup:

The boys game proved a regular
"humdinger." In spite of the football
tactics used by the teams, the game was
fast and the excitement during the
playing was intense, while the noise,
made by nearly four hundred spectators
nearly drowned the referees whistle.
Herzog again was the star Of the game
getting four baskets and two free throws.
Up to the last two or three minutes the
score stood Is to IA in favor of New Ulm.
Then the locals broke away and baskets
by Herzog and Coufal cinched the game.
Then ''Chick" Olson shot basket from

Bethlehem Bid on Shells
(or the United States NAVY

To The American People.
The Secretary of the Navy has swcrded
contracts amounting to over $3,00O,O00
to British bidder for Id and l6-inch
projectilos for the Navy because Of very
much lower prices offered by the English
bidders
Weknow nothing OF the basis upon which
the British bids were made, but the pub
lie is entitled to know the facts upon
which we ourselves bid for this work
Two years ago we took contracts
to make 1900 l4-inch shells at
price of sl,5l5,000. Up to now
not single shell has been ac-
cepted by the Governments. al
though we have expended, in
wages, materials, etc., on these
orders $522,33l, and we have not
received SINGLE DOLLAR on
these contracts.
In addition, literal interpretation Of
the contract might make liable fOa
penalties amounting to $678.0Io
In the light Of our experience, and hav-
ing no other basis, we bid for l6-incb
shells approximately the same rate per
pound as that which the Navy Depart
ment actually awarded a l4incb shell
contract one year ago.
