says:
"A man who gets an industrial
exemption by reason of his being
an Indispensable operative in an
indispensable industry ceases to
have that exemption as soon as
he ceases to be an operative in

The boards have never applied
that principle in the case of bona

prevented the men taking refuge

then discontinuing the work for

and exhibits were not as large
as in some previous years, but
the quality was very good. At
Beroun the people simply sur
prised themselves. The corn, po-
tatoes, hogs and sheep made a
wonderful good showing for a
community fair, and several re-
marked that the quality Of the
vegetables exceeded much of
that shown at the State Fair.
However, the best part of it all
was the good community spirit
manifest and it seemed to in
crease 100 per cent last Saturday.
Each individual in a communi-
ty helps to determine what kind
of a community it is or can be.
Each community helps to deter
mine what Pine County is or can
be, and so on thruout the state
and nation. Let us keep the COM
munity fairs going. They stimu-
late pride and enthusiasm. They
help to make us glad we are liv-
ing.
The County Fair is this
week.
The Askov Fair is the Goth.
Cloverton Fair is the 21st.
Fall Flowing.
Fall blowing is desirable for
several reasons. 1t results in in
creased yields in most cases. 1t
destroys weeds and weed seed
and the nest Of many insects. 1t
allows more fall rains to soak in.
1t permits better decay of vege-
table matter and the burrows
make better contact with the
sub-soil. All of these factors
combine to make better growing
conditions for plants and a ma
terial increase is usually the re-
suit.
Seed Corn.
Don't forget. This is seed
corn week. If there are only a
dozen ears in your field that are
good for seed they should be
saved. Home grown seed means
victory crops next year.
If you have the corn that can
and should be saved but are
short of time and help, notify
this office or Mr.. Jacobson of the
Hinckley High School, Mr.. Ayers
of the Pine City high school or
Mr.. Amos of the Sandstone high
school. We can see to it that a
team of boys or men from the
villages are out there to go thru
the fields and pick the seed ears
for you to dry or store.
Remember Pine County must
save 1000 bushels.

Missed An Opportunity.

At the recent convention of
the Norwegian-Danish Press AS
sociation at Eau Claire, Wis, it
had been expected that strong
protest would have been agreed
on for the purpose of showing
the governor of Iowa exactly
what is the attitude of loyal for
eign-born Americans toward his
proclamation prohibiting the use
of other languages than English
in his state. 1t has been widely
commented upon that the asso-
citation did not commit itself one
way or the other, and the gener-
al impression is that the pub
fishers missed an excellent op-
portunity to go on record as
protesting against the Prussian-
ism within our own gates.
A New Nation!
The Committee on Public In

United States Liberty Loan by
Americans of foreign descent.
Swedes purchased S6,011.6O0
worth of bonds; Norwegians S.
987.55 and Danes $2,353, $50.
All this is inspiring and very
plausible, but what passes un-
derstanding is an additional item
"Scandinavians, $72,95O." The
question remains: Who are the
Scandinavians not included a.
mong Swedes, Norwegians and
Danes? 1t might have been the
Firms, but they, too, are listed
separately in the announcement.

tific research. Questions relat-
ing to the economic conditions
which are expected to prevail af-
ter the end of the war, were also
discussed.

MONEY SITUATION IMPROVING

The monetary situation is considerably better
than month ago says Henry Clews in his week
ly financial letter. Tax payments are practically
out of the way, and bond issue is not ex-
pected until towards the end of the year Pay
ments for the last Liberty loan will be readily
met, and the Treasury can anticipate it's wants
by treasury notes, thus scattering its demands
and averting periodic stringency. The Treasury
is also disposed to allow funds to remain in the
banks until wanted; so that by use of skillful
discretion, financing the will cause as little
disturbance in the money market as possible
This week easier conditions prevailed and good
borrowers found little difficulty in securing
necessary accommodation. Some additional re-
lief was felt through resumption of gold imports
from Canada, where it is understood the Bank of
England has been holding about S52 900 900 for
account of the Federal reserve banks in settle
ment of the foreign loan. About $4,000, 900 of
this sum may come to New York; the first gold
import for a considerable period. These facts do
not mean easy abundant money; for capital is
going to be scarce and will command high rates
for long time to come; but they do mean easier
conditions for some weeks than have prevailed
thus far in 1918. In this connection, it is in
teresting to note that the British Government
will hereafter borrow much less in this market.
the reason being that hitherto it has financed it's
Allies and that henceforth their requests for aid
are more likely to be made directly to the United
States instead of through upon Great Britain
better investment demand has developed
since moneybecame less stringent. Quite a
number of new issues now appearing As
these must have had the approval of the authori-
ties, they show that Government restraint upon
investments has been temporarily modified.
Not a little uneasiness has been created by the
situation of public utilities, which are much in
the position as the railroads were before
the Government stepped in that is, they have
been starved by the prolonged hostility of public
service commissions and an unfriendly public
opinion.

FRENCH FEVER VOLUNTEERS

cahleoram from the commanding general of
the American Expeditionary Forces to the Sec
rotary of War, reports the success of trench
fever investigation, which was made possible
through the willingness of 66 American soldiers
to risk their lives. The message contains the
names and home addresse of the Sc men who
submitted to the incubation. All of them now
are either cured convalescent.
These men were from field hospitals and
ambulance organizations, units commonly de-
signated as noncombatant. They were selected
from large group of volunteers as the health
lest and consequently the best able to withstand
long siege of trench fever, which has been one
of the most battling diseases which the allied
armies have encountered The selected
were sent to a hospital behind the British front
line in January
Trench fever is disease which has been
common on the western front. It may have ex-
listed before, but has not been either frequent or
severe enough to direct the attention of the
medical profession.
Now it represents one of the greatest causes
of disability in the allied armies Nothing de-
finite was known about either the cause or mode
of spread of this disease.
While it is probably fatal by its nature,
through frequent relapses and facilitating eff
fects it may render a certain proportion of men
permanently unfit for military service, and the
approximate average time lost from this disease
is six months. Therefore, in spite of the fact
it is not fatal disease, from the military point
of view it has been serious one.
The problem of protecting our men, if possible,
from this added suffering of the first
questions faced by the American Expeditionary
Forces.
1t is no mean thing that these volunteers did
in France. To face illness for weeks, with ex-
IRENE suffering, requires peculiar vaor.
from 20 to Is pounds. incidentally the hospital
in which the experiments carried were
sheed by the Germans in the early part of their
March drive.
1t is believed by the Army Medical Corps that
the sacrifice of this group of Sc men will in time
lead to the protection of thousands of men from
the ravages of trench fever.
