CROP REPORT GOOD
THROUGHOUT STATE
A Favorable Spring - Wheat Acre.
age High and Prospects
Better

The United States Department OF
Agriculture reports excellent crop
prospects for the entire country and
for Minnesota especially. 1t is
thought that the wheat crop will ex-
ceed by 100000 bushels the pro-
duction of 1917. The rye production
will probably exceed last years by
20, 100000 bushel. Whether condi-
tions on May 1st were not the most
favorable throughout most Of this
state However, last week there
were heavy rains throughout the
southern section and today prospects
for production are said to be never
better.
The total acreage of hay is less
than a year ago due to the desire to
grow as large an amount of grain as
possible. Weather conditions have
been somewhat unfavorable for pas
ture.

All catalogue houses have to make
a report of sugar sold and reports are
sent to each county food administrat-
or in order that people cannot buy
their share away from home and then
duplicate again at the home stores.
County Food Administrator Adams
says he is surprised at the number of
people reported to him who are in
the habit of buying away from home.
He believes that the home merchants
are in way responsible for this con-
dition and that If they advertised
their goods better they could Offset
much of this catalogue trade.

that we are in the war Is being
brought home to us. @
The train was a long one, made
I'D of sixteen coaches consisting OF
baggage cars, day coaches, sleepers
and dining cars and contained men
from towns in the southern part OF
the state and places along the line
that the train passed thru. The
southern Minnesota men were from
Luyerne, Worthington, Slayton'
Mankato and st. Peter.
The Morris Home Guard and
band always ready to honor the sol
dier boys, accompanied them TO the
train. together with the hundreds OF
citizens. relatives and friends. The
n1atform was crowded until the
train pulled away.
Many took dinner with the boys at
the Grand Saturday noon, and aIter
dinner the Home Guard quartet sang
and Rev. Stever and L. P. 4Norpy
gave short addresses of appreciation
Saturday afternoon open house was
kept at the Commercial Club rooms
and the boys were entertained there
and a reception held for them.

WOMEN TO The FORE
Wives and Mothers Know Value
Of Liberty Bonds.
War Behind the Lines lie Being Prose-
cuted on q Tremendous Scale
Every Woman Can Help
Do Something.

Writer for the Saturday Evening

lBy ALBERT w. ATWOOD, Financial
Writer for the Saturday Evening
Post.)
The day seems to have passed when
woman's education consisted Of piano
lessons and little polite French.
Now she studies biology. PSYCHOLOGY,
and all the other ologies. In this
great and radical change in the posi-
ton Of woman 1t will not do to over
look the change in her relation to
money matters. It is no longer un-
womanly to know something about
money. Feminine charm is not di.
minished by knowing the difference
between bond and share Of stock.
Millions Of women earn their living
today. Hundreds of thousands have
Independent means and must decide
for themselves in affairs financial.
More and more of the wives, mothers,
and sisters not only spend the house
hold money, but are consulted by the
men when an investment is to be
made. 1t matters not whether the
investment consists Of n victrola, an
automobile, or a bond. It Is said men
do not take their wives into their con-
fidence when they gamble or take a
flyer, but 1t is also said that deception
in these matters does not pay.
So there is every material reason
why women should do their part and
more in floating the Liberty bonds.
Indeed a woman recognizes gold
dollar just as quick as man, and
when it pays good interest In addition
she is not going to turn 1t down. But
there Is more than a purely busi-
ness and selfish side to the women Of
this country. They have surprised
even themselves with their executive
ability and powers OF business organ
ization. The Red Cross and every
other variety Of relief work has been
In its detail largely the result Of
woman's effort.
Behind the lines women are prose-
cutting the war ON tremendous scale.
There are millions of men as well as
women who cannot fight In the
trenches, who cannot even drive mo-
tortrucks or work in munition fac
tories. There are some people who can
not even successfully raise vegetable
garden, but there Is not an adult man
or woman outside the poorhouse and
the hospital who cannot either buy or
help to sell Liberty bond. 1t Is the
least they can do.

Don't BUY Too Bio a Bond.

Here is a word of advice for the
farmer bond purchaser. Don't bite off
more than you can chew. Your gov.
eminent doesn't want you to "strap"
yourself or run into financial difficul>
ties trying to pay for bond. Buy one
small enough so you will be able to
nav for it In the allotted time without
having to borrow money to meet the
obligation. Its value will represent
your savings for that period of time.
If your circumstances won't permit Of
YOU purchasing a 81 900 bond, buy on
ly a $500 one. Don't complicate our
already complicated financial problem
by assuming debt you can't pay.
