BOYS NEEDED
BY HUNDREDS
TO LABOR ON.
NEARBY FARMS
BY BILL PRICE.

Commissioner Gardiner is one Of a
number Of Washingtonians who have
been or will this week be laboring
for their country and themselves in
harvesting the ripened wheat crop for
many miles around this city. Reports
from all directions are that wheat is
ready for cutting and shocking and
that labor is dangerously short.
Many farmers have already been
able to cut their wheat, and their
problem from now on is finding the
labor to get it threshed. The season
has been very good up to this time
for cutting and curing.
Gardiner Harvests Wheat.
Commissioner Gardiner and his en-
ployes on his Prince Georges county
farm began cutting wheat last week,
the Commissioner taking a lively part
in the activities, which, as on all
farms, begin at daylight and con
clude at dark-some little days work
in these long daylight hours.
DR.. Harvey Wiley has had to turn
away from delving into pure food
problems and give physical aid and
direction to operations on his Nir-
ginia farm. His seventy-four years
have not prevented his hustling on
the farm. A few months ago farm
help was so scarce he was compelled
20 abandon pure food facts and fan
eies here and put in three days sow
ing clover.
A. c. McEIroy. of the National
Laundry, has had a call from his
Anne Arundel county farm for his
personal services this week in cut
ting wheat. The crop, as everywhere
else around Washington, has ripened
n week to ten days ahead of any other
crop IN many years. In the hill and
mountain regions lying northwest OF
1he city cutting wheat will be in or
der from the last of this week until
tlieriast of next and later.
The cry from all directions is for
help. Offering an opportunity for
many Boy Scouts and high school
boys to do some genuine work for
their country and themselves.
Boy Scout officials in Washington,
80 was suggested today by those in
touch with farm conditions. might at
once obtain volunteers for farm work
and gel in communication with farm
ers who want the services of young
STEERS The great trouble is that
farmers who need help do not know
" here to go to get in touch with
Willing boys and how to transport
lhis labor when offered. Reports are
Utmost unanimous from all directions
that husky farm labor is fast disap-
rearing The young men are either
being drawn into the army or have
zone TO the cities hunting more re-
l1iunerative employment.

Change Should
Cause NOAnxiety
TWO CHECKS INSTEAD OF ONE
TO COVER ALLOTMENTS: ALL
MONEY WILL COME

There has been an important
change in the matter of allotm ITS
of the soldiers and sailors and tileir
dependents and in the payment of
War Risk Insurance. Over va
ter of million people in the United
States will shortly be wondering why
allowances from soldiers in the SER
vice are apparently reduced II am
cunt. Y This is by reason of the f.. It
that the War Risk Insurance Board
is to issue the checks hereafter Cor
the. compulsory allotments and all ex-
cess amounts. In other words, the
difference between that and what has
heretofore been received will be paid
by that particular branch of the SER
vice in which the soldier or sailor
is serving.
1t is highly important that people
must understand the reason for the
change and be advised that there
will be certain delay in the pay
ment of the excess allowances. They
will receive shortly second check to
cover the deficiency.
1t is also requested that publicity
be given this matter in order to pre-
vent the necessity Of writing letters
to the Bureau of War Risk Insurance
or other departments in regard to
the matter, all of which departments
are already flooded with correspon-
dence.-State Safety Commission.

Tyier Relief Fund
Is Now Started
SPECIAL MEETING OF CONNER
CIAL CLUB DECIDES TO RAISE
FUND FOR WRECKED TOWN

At a special meeting of the Com
mercial Club held Tuesday afternoon
it was decided that committee con-
sisting of President F. R. Lobdell,
Secretary A. ]. White, and Mayor,
VIM. M. Smith should send to Tyler
an expression of sympathy from the
citizens of Redwood Falls, and also
that this same committee should So
licit the citizens of the city for funds
to be sent to Tyler as a relief
A subscription was started during
the meeting and about ninety dol
lars raised. This was accomplished
in a very short time and with a
small membership present The COM
mittee expects to have no difficulty
in raising large amount and every
citizen of Redwood Falls is asked to
cooperate with them in making this
very worthy fund as large as the
cause warrants. A city of this size
should send several hundred dollars.
Another matter taken up at this
special meeting was the matter of
the delivery from grocery stores. The
entire absence of deliveries has been
found a eral hardship in many cases
and the legislative committee was
advised to consult with the state
Food Administration Department as
to the advisability of having one de-
livery each day.

''Herb" Tells of
Life In France
SERGEANT H. LAUTERBACH
WRITES FAMILY OF AIR
PLANE FIGHT

france July Il.
We cannot mention names after
coming into the zone of advance. 1t
wouldn't do much good anyway for
we are not staying long in one place
now. Some times it is even hard to
keep up. Do you get me? Our boys
are all doing heroic work. 1t makes
us proud to be Americans especially
when we see the smile on the faces
and the cheerfulness of our boys af-
ter being wounded. They are always
eager to get back to the lines and
get into the fight again. They al
ways joke about their wounds. l re-
member one young fellow who am
used me particularly. He still wore
his helmet and it's edges were ragg-
ed and full of holes. 1t looked more
like a pineapple that had been flat
tened. One bullet came through and
passed along side of his nose and
through his cheek and the hospital
was the proper place for him with
out a doubt. Yet he was all enthu-
siasm and smiles when relating his
experience with German machine
guns.
One day just as we were eating
our noon meal out in the open air,
two American and one boche planes
staged a fight over our heads. We
had been wanting this to happen for
some time and to make it real good
show, the boche was forced to land
near us. There were two German
aviators in the machine but they
didn't return to Germany.
I would like t. write of more of
our experience but you know-cen-
sorship. He might let little pass
through but if l write too much it
will all go into the waste paper bas-
ket and then you'll wonder why l
don't write or perhaps you would
get a note something like this "Your
son is we'll but he talks too much"
l never was accused of that and
we'll I'm just naturally going to let
you read the paper for. your war
news. Besides l don't wish to in
jure the business of lecturers on war
topics and experiences in France.
We have had considerable rain but
the skies are again clear and the
prospects for more shows in the eel
estial regions look better. You know
rain checks are issued even on the
front to acertain extent. That is
the show is called off but you can't
always get in out of the rain. We
feel good though and that's half the
battle.
We are going to play concert
this evening. Haven't been playing
much lately but little helps a -ot
now and then. It isn't often that we
hame the big guns to assist the boss
section.

Store Robbed

Last Monday morning, Christ Jen-
sens hardware store was broken into
and quantity Of pocket knives and
shells stolen. Entrance to the build
ing was made through one of the rear
windows which was broken, the glass
from which was scattered all over the
rear of the building. The thieves
took about $4,000 worth of knives and
gun shells. The cash register was
broken open but there was no money
in it. There were however, num-
Der Of approval slips missing. Why
slips for is beyond understanding as
they are of no value whatever.
Mr.. Jensen believes that robbery
was committed by local parties and
has number of clues to bear out
his suspicious. The bungly manner
in which the robbery was committed
bears out the contention that the
deed was committed by amateurs.
A number Of small thefts and rob-
berries have been committed at Evan
and Golden during the past few
months and so far the perpetrators
have not been aprehended, but as
they seen to be getting more bold
and also careless in covering up their
tracks, it is hoped their carelessness
will leave sufficient clues to lead to
their arrest and conviction. Sleepy

Tyler Visited By
Terrible Stern
THIRTY ONE PEOPLELOsE LIVES
OVER SIXTY INJURED IN CY-
CLONE OF LAST WEDNES-
DAY NIGHT
PROPERTY LOSS HEAVY
STORM TEARS THROUGH SEVEN
BLOCKS OF BUSINESS AND
RESIDENT SECTION

Tyler, a town of about twelve hun
dred population, was visited Wednes-
day night August Fl, by the most
destructive cyclone, Minnesota has
ever known. AS result of this
storm thirty one people are dead
and over sixty badly injured people
are in the improvised hospital and
in the homes which were untouched
by the storm.
The storm struck the town at nine
thirty o'clock, tearing through the
business section, strip block wide
showing the path of most terrific
wind. The path extended seven blocks
through the residence portion and
then out into the country where one
set of farm buildings was complete
ly demolished and some others more
slightly injured. The property loss
is estimated at several hundred thou
sand dollars.
Assistance in the form of relief
supplies of food and clothing, nurs-
es, and men to aid in the work of
searching for bodies under the ruins
was rushed to Tyler early Thursday
and has been there with reinforce
ments constantly added. The Home
Guard of various Minnesota towns
have been called and since Thursday
evening the town has been under mar
tial law. This was made necessary
to protect property from the hordes
of curious who rushed to the city.
The Redwood Falls Home Guard went
Sunday and are still on duty. They
will probably be released today or
Thursday. 1t is estimated that 10000
from Minnesota iowa and Da-
kota visited the striker city Sunday
An effort is already being m..de
to clear up the ruins preparatory
to rebuilding. Both banks have
announced their intention of
erecting new buildings at once, and
of assisting other citizens to do the
same Some men have lost both
homes and business houses and
are absolutely dependent upon
outside help to again get started in
their business life. Many families
have no homes and no clothing cx-
cept what they were wearing at The
time of the storm. Several mothers
are left with small children to sup
port, the husband and father having
been killed. With winter coming on
the prospect for Tyler is anything
but cheerful and it behooves every
citizen in the state to render the
village ever assistance, financial or
otherwise which he possible can.
wise, which he possible can.
Many Redwood Falls citizens have
visited the ruins, either the day af-
ter the storm or since, and realize
what p scene of devastation and hone
lessness it is. Several have expressed
their willingness to help in finan-
cial way since it is impossible for
%Ihem to give other assistance and
when the Tyler Relief Fund is start
ed it is very evident the city of Red
wood Falls will do her part.

Another Nurse Goes

The many Lamberton friends of
Miss Daisy Wanstrum, daughter of
Mrs. A. A. Swanbeck, will be pleased
to know that the good word for which
she has so long hoped to receive has
reached her and that she is now in
New York, on her way to France,
where she will serve her country in
the capacity of trained nurse, for
which she is so we'll fitted.
Miss Wanstrum has been at Camp
Custer, near Battle Creek, Mich. since
she received the call Of the govern
ment in May. She had been visiting
in Lamberton from Christmas until
that time. She left for New York
Sunday.
She advises her mother that thirty
other trained nurses sail with her
and that they will begin their voyage
across the seas some time during the
present week. -Lamberton Star.

Sugar Hoarders

1t is leaking out that a number of
people of Vesta and vicinity have
been purchasing more sugar than
the federal laws permit them to buy,
and Judging from official correspon-
dence shown us first of this week,
this part of Redwood County will
have number of contributors to the
Red Cross on sugar boarding, same
as Brown County had on wheat. The
federal department is getting out
of patience with this class Of people
who knowingly violate food commits
sion orders, and the chances are that
some fifteen or twenty people here
about are going to be given an oppor-
tunity without their consent, for an
interview with a federal agent who
will be in this burg in the near flu
ture.
No matter who they are we hope
every food hog is given the maxi
mum penalty, converted to penal
servitude instead of fines.-Vesta
