DR ELLIOTT AND OTHERS SPEAK
on NEED OF COMFORTS
AMONG OUR SOLDIERS

Conditions. among the soldiers on the
firing line and back OF the line were
described in q very convincing way by
d.. John 81. Elliott Of Minneapolis
Triday noon, before an audience Of
u,oa7 q the Elks hall here. He told
Of what the National War Work
Oauneil proposes to do to relieve these
conditions and explained how the mon
~ II to be raised. Tie campeign be-
gina next Sunday and lasts until No
1enbes 10. Morrison county's allot-
mont for tho Y. NJ. G. A. fund Of $685.
100000 that this country is going to
raise, Is $4,000. In Fr:nce, Italy and
Russia, similar funds ~ill be raised
for the same purpose.
DR.. Elliott said that there is one
thing which the soldier needs when
no il off duty and that is something
to occupy his time. Unless good, clean,
wholesome recreation is provided for
the soldier, he will seek other amuse-
ments, which in mos. instances are in
furious and degrading. DR.. Elliott
said that it would be necessary to
raise this money at once as the United
States will have two and one-haf mil
lion men under arms by next July.
The money thus raised will be used to
provide the soldiers with good itera.
1are and music, stationery, warm
place to spend leisure hours, etc. He
ssid that what it done for this cause
now will count for zen times more than
anything done later on.

CROSSFIELD FIGHTS FRIENDS OF
THE KAISER

How Edmund Crossfeld of this city,
who is in the U. 8. navy, tanned q
bunch Of people who were shouting for
"The Kaiser" in a cafe in Chicago
is described in long article in the
last issue Of the Lone Prairie Leader.
The article states that Mr.. Crossfield
heard someone shout "Hurrah for the
Kaiser" as he passed by cafe in
Chicago one day. He entered the cafe,
the article says, and, after charging
his way clear from the front to the
rear of the cafe and back, telling the
people right and left as he went, he
gave them talk on patriotism and
then proceeded on about his business.

OUTLOOK FOR PROFIT IN PORK
PRODUCTION

A statement which appeared in GER
tain Chicago newspapers recently to
the effect that the United States Food
Administration intends to reduce hog
prices to $40 q bundled weight has
caused great anxiety among many
farmers and has precipitated some un-
loading Of hogs on the market.
A. D. Wilson, federal food adminis-
traitor for Minnesota, has received
from Herbert G. Hoover, United States
food administrator, an absolute denial
of such an intention on the part Of
the food administration. Mr.. Hoover
goes so far as to say that all the pow
ers Of the administration will be used
to keep the prices at which allied and
governmental purchases are made on
a plane that will assure profit to
producers Of meat animals. Mr.. Hoov-
er adds that in his opinion the best
market obtainable for the present corn
crop of the country will be through
livestock; that the iced Of increased
production of beef and pork can be
secured only by profit on production:
The war has brought q decrease of
more than $4,000, 900 hogs in this coun.
try through the intense demand for
pork and fat and the use Of land for
the raising Of grain for human food
instead Of for hog feed: Moreover,
the export Of pork has increased 66.1
per cent since the war began. At the
same time domestic consumption has
increased s per cent. These facts, and
the further fact that after the war
for a considerable per1od there will
be a poor export market for bread
grains but q wide demand for pork
and other animal products, make the
production Of pork real opportunity
for the farmer. This is the view Of
northwestern experts in pork produc'
ton.
