ASSESSORS PREPARE FOR DUTIES

Last Wednesday afternoon tie as
SCISSORS of Brown County held their
annual conference at the Courthouse
and were addressed by Henry A. Ives
OF st. Paul, son of former Lieut.. Gov.
G. S. Ives of St. Peter. Mr.. Ives spoke
to the assessors for several hours ex-
planning to them their duties and urging
them to perform the same without
fear or favor.
According to figures pre- ented by him,
tie assessed valuation in Brown County
increased % per cent between 1914 and
1917 while the average tax rate increased
20 Fer cent during the same period.
The assessed valuation for 1914 was
$13, 189,4e4 md in 1917 it amounted to
$16,177,4 In 1914 the average tax
rate was 24.17 mills and in 1917 1905

DEMOCRATIC COUNTY
CONVENTION NOT HELD

For some. unexplained reason the call
for primaries and county convention
to elect delegates for the Democratic
State Convention which is to convene
at St. Paul Auditorium next Wednesday,
March 81, reached the Democratic
county committee at so late date that
it was impossible to give public notice
of the holding of primaries and con-
sequently no delegates to the county
convention were elected. TIE county
convention as such which was to have
been held tere at New Ulm yesterday,
was called off. It was decided, how
ever, to have Brown County represented
at tie state gathering and each voting
precinct will be allowed to cEoo-e some
one to represent them. As a rule the
delegates to the state convention have
been largely recruited from New Ulm,
Sleepy Eye, Springfield and Hanska and,
no doubt, these municipalities will see
to it that Brown County will be proper
ly represented at TIE n eeting. It is
not known at this tine WI o will so from
New Ulm, except that Jos. SMASH WHO
is secretary Of tie county committee
has expressed willingness to attend.

POOR connection between tie soil par

WAR POISONS
By H. Addington Bruce

+ - : 20 80
We have heard much of tie poison
gas introduced by tie Germans as a
new and terrible means of waqinq
war. We have heard little of the
equally dangerous poisons to which
many war workers back of tie lines
may be exposed in their efforts to
support our men.
Special danger from poisoning is
involved, for example, in tie manu-
facture Of high explosives, notably
deadly explosive trinitro-toluene It.
N. IT,, which caused TIE Halifax dis
aster.
Unless certain precautions are taken
the T. N. T. worker is liable to develop
any one of variety of disease symptoms.
He may suffer from skin troubles, from
gastric catarrh, from a fatal toxic
jaundice.
What makes his danger greater is
that T. N. T. sends out poisonous
fumes at temperature as low as 80
degrees. For safety, therefore, no work.
er on molten T. N. T. should be re-
quired or permitted to work in room
that does not have the most efficient
ventilating devices.
Danger from poisoning may like
wise be present in some phases of
aircraft manufacture.
The wings Of aeroplanes have to be
chemically treated - "doped,' as it
is called in the factories: Some Of the
chemicals used for this purpose have
proved to be highly dangerous to the
"dorers."
Seemingly the most dangerous of
these is tetra-chlorethane, which has
caused numerous deaths in England
and Germany.
Its victims lose weight, suffer from
drowsiness and nausea, pass blood
and bile, and if kept exposed to T. C.
fumes die from fatty degeneration
Of the liver. English factory inspectors
consider even 10 per cent of T. c. in,
airplane 'dope" dangerous.
Amyl acetate, benzine and methyl
also used for doping" are
potent industrial poisons. Their use
should be permitted only under the
strictest regulations.
For our own sakes as we'll as theirs
we can never be too insistent on the
protection of the munition workers.
1t is not simply a humanitarian ques-
ton. It is a question also of national
efficiency and Of national survival.

spring wheats for this purpose. Nu-
merous milling tests show that Mar
quis wheat is equal or slightly supe-
rior to similar samples of Fife and
Bluestem wheat. Tie Preston wheat,
popularity Known as Velvet Chat, has
yielded a little greater in a few sec
lions, but it is a bearded wheat while
Marquis is beardless.

forging ahead Of the yields Of Velvet

because it has roor milling qualities.

Sinking Smut or Blunt
You can insure your wheat crop
against smut very cEeaply and very
efficiently. All wheat should be treat.
Ell in a solution OF one pint of full
strength formaldehyde in 80 gallons of
water. It is best to treat it in an open
tub or barrel which will allow tie
trash and many of the smut balls
and tie broken or smutted kernels
to rise to the top and be SKINNED off.
TIE same solution can be used over
and over again.
Treat the wheat and pile it in
wagon-box or canvas and cover it
over for several hours. You can get
formaldehyde from any druggist b., t,
be careful that it is full strength. You
cannot afo.d with wheat at 1920 a
