LOCAL RED CROSS BRANCH
MAKES LARGE SHIPMENT

Another large shipment Of knitted
goods was made recently by the New
Ulm Chapter of the Red Cross, which
includes Hanska, Albin, Essig, Linden
and New Ulm, to the state headquarters
in Minneapolis. The consignment was
a very large one and as it consists chiefly
of knitted goods it shows that the ladies
OF the city and surrounding country have
been working hard for the Red Cross.
The consignment consisted of the
following pieces: 100 pair pajamas, 100
hospital bed shirts, 100 chemise, so bed
socks, 10 helmets, $50 pair of socks, 2
layettes and 100 boys suits. In the
shipment is also included 1925 pieces
of 2x2 wipes" These are used for
washing out wounds. The hundred
boys suits shipped are used for refugees
of the belligerent countries.
The Red Cross is making monthly
shipments to the Minneapolis branch and
this shipment was the July and August
order combined. -.....,..

THREE FARMS WILL
MEET SUGAR NEEDS
BIG ACREAGE OF SUGAR BEETS
r IN NIcoLLET COUNTY
THIS YEAR
CROP PROMISES ABUNDANT
RETURNS AND EARLY
80 e q. .-.@s- s.- +
HARVEST

c. T. Weibezahn, James Biggar and
O'Brien Bros, three of the principal
sugar beet raisers near st. Peter will
grow nearly enough beets this season
to supply the entire population Of
Nicollet county with the 2-pound per
capita allowance Of sugar for a year.
The three growers have 113 acres
under cultivation and expect a yield
of at least 10 tons to the acre. This
is low estimate Of the harvest as
it is thought that most Of the fields
will run over IL tons. About ESQ
pounds of sugar is refined from a ton
of beets, and on the 113 acres, it is
estimated that 283,000 pounds will
be produced.
Prices Higher
Farmers in that vicinity have plant
ed approximately 800 acres of beets,
and the sum Of $4,000 will be paid
for the crop, based on the price of SO
per ton which is guaranteed the grow
ers by the Minnesota Sugar Co. Of
Chaska. This is an increase of so
per ton over the price paid last year.
Minnesota Doubles Quota
1t is expected that Minnesota will
furnish nearly two times as much sugar
this year as in the past. According
to the Chaska company, 100000
pounds will be produced this season
compared with 100000 in 1917. The
acreage has been increased from $500
to 8,100 acres and the yield promises
to be much greater. It is expected that
the sugar raised in this state will supply
Minnesota people with the 2 pounds per
capita for four MONTHS IT.. r.
Harvest Early
Sugar production from the, new crop
at Chaska will start about October
19. The beet sugar harvest generally
starts about the last week in Septem-
ber, but the crop this year is maturing
rapidly and attaining good size, and
harvest may be somewhat early.
The Chaska factory is the only one
in the state at the present time
Many authorities state, however, that
if an additional 5000 acreage could be
guaranteed, another factory would be
erected and would prove a financial
success.

Class Almost Exhausted
With the calling Of these men there
remain but few more in Class I of the
men who registered in the month of
June 1917. The next large call will
no doubt consist mainly of 1918 reg
istrants. Fourteen of the following
nineteen men will be picked to leave

ANOTHER PIONEER LODGE
DONATION

Another donation to the pioneer lodge
fund was made a few days ago by Mr.,
and Mrs. Chas. L. Roos Of Wellington,
Kansas. They contributed $25 towards
the convenience of the building and sug-
gest that fire place would be very ap-
propriate At the time OF the dedication
of the pioneer lodge Mrs. Hoerr of st.

a fine spirit to contribute literally to a
memorial which has been erected to

BEEF RESTRICTIONS
NO LONGER EXIST
FOOD ADMINISTRATION LIFTS
BAN ON CONSUMPTION
OF MEAT
STORING OF MEATS FOR WINTER
USE is NOT CONSIDERED
BOARDING

Recent orders issued by the Fedora
Food Administration remove the re-
strictions placed on beef consumed ir
public eat shops and also the voluntary
restrictions on beef consumption ir
households. 81 r., - .-s=e.s-~'.-- >
The orders issued request the using
of beef cattle under ATS pound weight
so as to reserve the heavier cattle fol
our fighting forces and those of oul
Allies. The orders suspending the bee1
restrictions were issued one month earlier
than anticipated and for this reason the
above request was added.
Meat And Vegetables Should Be
Stored
A letter received by the Food Ad.
ministrator of Brown County, C. A
Stolz, from the State Food Administra
tion gives the information that the salt
ing and curing of meats for winter con.
sumation is not boarding. The letter
received is as follows:
August 18th, 1918.
"To all County Food Administrators
"A short time ago there appeared in
one of the Twin City Dailies, an ar
ticle on food boarding, which has led
to considerable confusion.
eve want the people of Minnesota to
understand that the Food Administra-
tion exists primarily to assist our people
to live we'll under these exceedingly try
ing times. 1t is desirable, therefore, that
the people be disturbed as little as pos
sible. We want rerishables stored
against the period of scant production.
To this end it is most desirable that all
kinds of fruits and vegetables be canned
and preserved and that meats be cured
in sufficient quantities to provide well
for the period of scant production.
"Meats of all kinds should be salted
and cured. Any family has perfect
right to store in the fall sufficient
amount of fruit and vegetables to last
them until the next season. In fact,
it is urged that this be done. Obviously
it would not be right to perserve fruits,
meats and vegetables in quantities in
excess of a family's normal needs.'

NEW FEATURE FOR
BROWN co. FAIR
TABLEAUX AND FOLK DANCES
ADDED TO LIST OF
ENTERTAINMENT
ATTEMPT TO GET GOVERNMENT
AEROPLANE AND BALLOON
BEING MADE

With the new list of attractions and
entertainments to be offered at the
Brown County Fair completed there
remains little uncertainty but that the
fair will be the largest and best ever
offered in this or surrounding counties.
The dates of the fair are Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday of next week.
New Attractions Offered
Several new attractions have been
added to the list presented some time
ago. Chief among these is large flag
drill which will be given by one hundred
young ladies of the city. The drill is
being practiced under the direction OF
Professor Herman Helm and over one
hundred ladies have already been secured.
Folk dances are also added to the list
and these will be shown in the afternoon
programs. These are under the direction
of Miss Elsa Helm. To the evening
program has been added two tableaux,
one representing the Red Cross and the
other the American Girl. All the Allied
Nations will be represented in the drills,
which will no doubt be an excellent
feature.
Aeroplane and Balloon Flights
W. E. Engelbert, secretary OF the as
sociation, has been busy the past few
days trying to get an aeroplane from the
government flying station at Mime
apolis to make a flight at the fair but
as yet nothing definite has been done.
A balloon flight has also been arranged
and will take place.
Other Features ~
Other features at the fair as announced
previously are the Lavain Trio in two
big feature acts daily, their acts being
coordination of acrobatic skill and ir-
resistible comicalities by trio Of fun
makers The second act is the Ishikawa
brothers, four marvellous Japanese
equilibrists, who will appear both eve
ming and afternoon The other great
act, the Six Flying Lamys, had to
be cancelled as two Of the members OF
Llle k)duy nave DCCll vi 1ACoN .AAAoO
the service. In their place, however,
three other features have been secured,
one being casting act by four people
and the other two one-act one-man
features.
A baseball game may possibly take
place between New Ulm team and one
from Nicollet but here also nothing
definite has been done.
Tuesday Is Children's Day
Tuesday has been set by the associa-
ton as Children's day. On this day all
the school children in the county will
be admitted Free For this occasion the
Child Welfare League will present a
tableau in which school children from
over the entire county will carry large
flag A striking feature of this will be
flag carried by some small tots, rep
resenting "Uncle Sans Last Reserves"
The work is in charge of Mrs. John Wool
drick of Sleepy Eye, president of the Child
Welfare League of Brown County.
A baby beef and pig contest will
also be held and will add greatly to
! the interest. Hofmeister's band will
furnish music during the two days of
the fair.

! About $100 has been donated to the
Red Cross by Comfrey people who have

GIVING FRIEND DRINK
is RATHER EXPENSIVE

Trying to help his friend Fritz Stein
berg, who has been put on the blacklist
by Chief Of Police Harmening, to get
into touch with liquor proved rather an
expensive favor for Albert Schmalz.
Schmalz was caught in the act by Har-
mening last Thursday and was hailed into
Justice Henningsen's court Saturday
where he was fined $50 and costs, the
latter amounting to $4.05.
Mr.. Harmening stated in an interview
with a Review representative that the
laws are going to be strictly enforced
and that when he puts man on the
blacklist he is going to see to it that be

in any manner and kind hearted friends

Hard on Crops.

The rain OF the week, as stated above,
has been very hard on the crop and re-
ports have been coming in from all
SECTIONS of the county to the effect that
the grain which has been standing in the
fields for shock threshing is beginning
to sprout and that unless the rain leaves
off there will remain very little for thresh-
ing. Even that grain which has been
stacked is beginning to sprout as
it was not quite dry enough when
stacked and the heavy rains have
soaked through the stacks. s.@..
New Wheat Received By Mills:
Several thousands bushels of wheat
has been received from around here by,
the mills Of the city and the grain has
been found to vary greatly in grade The,
wheat brought in was mostly threshed
before the rainy period and was found to-
be fairly good. However, severA loads
have been turned away by the Eagle
Mills because it was Of such poor quality
Mr.. Olsen stated to the Review that the
wheat contained so much moisture that
it was tough and it was impossible to-,
use it until it was dried. Other wheat
delivered will be all rightin the long runs
but it was found to contain considerable
smut which will cost lot of extra labor
as it must be washed off before it can be
ground. Too much smut causes the.
wheat to spoil and in consequence con-
siderable Of the wheat cannot be used.
Western Grain Good.
Mr.. Olsen also stated that they had
received carloads of wheat from their
western elevators and that they have
found it to be of a very high grade. The
Dakotas have not been seriously affected I
by the heavy rains which have been
prevalent in this section Of the country
Sunshine Needed for Corn.
Unless sunshine and hot weather
comes and continues there is danger that
the corn crop will not mature and thus
cause serious shortage along this line
At present the corn is very good and
somewhat ahead of last year but a lot Of !
hot weather is now needed if the corn is.
to be saved.
Wheat Plans For Next Year.
A national plan for a great Liberty
Wheat Harvest in 1919 was announced 4
July % by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. American farmers
are asked to SOW to winter wheat this fall
not less than 45,OOO,0OO acres an in
crease of Z per cent over last years
sowing and the department suggests
that an even greater area, approximately
$500, 900 acres an increase Of more
than IL per cent over last year could
be sown if conditions are especially favor-
able in all the States and would betta--
meet the needs of the Allied Nations at
war.
From the smaller acreage harvest Of
636,000,OO bushels might be expected, IT.
is estimated, and from the larger acreage
667, 600, 900 based upon an average yielda
|of E15.7 bushels an acre and an abandon
ment of 10 per cent Of the area sowr on
account Of winter kill The plan fixes
definite acreages by States and in CAM
|paign to be launched Immediately by
the department and the State agricultural
colleges and leading farmers throughout
