NEW WHEAT GRADES
TO BE ESTABLISHED
Notifications Secured by Stevenson
will Mean Average Increase of
5 to 10 cents Per Bushel.

Last week President Wilson heard
arguments for a change in the wheat
grades from a delegation from the
northwest with Congressman Halvor
STEVENSON as spokesman. A few days
afterward orders came, through the
Secretary of Agriculture, for modifi-
cation of the grades that will mean an
average increase of from five to ten
cents per bushel in the returns for the
wheat crop.
The moisture content is raised from
IL to 10 per cent: 4 per cent of other
wheat, instead of ?, is permitted; rye
content is raised from to ? per cent ::
instead Of 1 per cent of damaged ker-
nels is permitted and there may be
per cent of heated kernels instead of
none, and one per cent separable small
seeds is permitted
The change in moisture content is the
most important, as the bulk of the
northwestern crop averages between II
and Is per cent in the moisture test.
The new ruling will go into effect
after hearings are held in the five prin-
cipal grain centers of the country. that
for the northwest to occur in Mime
apolis Oh March Dist.
The notifications are in line with Mr..
Steenerson's bill, recently introduced in
congress, and grants almost all that
was asked for. !,

BAD BLAZE IN
WESTMAN BLOCK
Much Damage Done by Smoke and
Water in Westman's Grocery and
the Bazaar Owned by l.. Steen. .-....

At about Z 80 Saturday morning fire
was discovered in the basement of the
Westman store building on the east
side. The fire was located near the
furnace in the center of the building
and as there was no outside entrance
to the basement, the fire department
had some difficulty in getting water
onto the flames. They succeeded in do
ing so, however, before the fire gained
much Roadway.
The building is occupied by Lewis
Westman. who conducts a grocery store
and by the Bazaar, of which L. L.
Steen is the proprietor Much damage
was caused to the goods in both stores
by smoke and water
The fire was caused by an explosion
of gases generated by rapidly burn
ing fire i'll the furnace, the door of
which was blown open and the fire be-
ing scattered ignited the floor above.
Since the fire both stores have been
closed awaiting the arrival of the fire
insurance adjusters, who are expected
tomorrow.

Report From Local Board.

To the Public:
The district board has now nearly
completed the c]assifications of regis
trants in this county. That board as
we'll as our board. is anxious that pro-
per classifications be made. hence we
ask the public to inform us of any
cases wherein it thinks that improper
ing upon claims we have had the ques-
tionaires to 60 by. but if registrants
have not set forth the true. or the real
situation. it may be that wrongful
claSsificat tons have been made so if any
citiZensknOws of registrant who has
been given deferred classification who
is not entitled to it we wish they would
call our attention to the facts so that
Redistribution can be made, and like
wise if any man has been put in class
would like to have you call our attell-
ton to it so the matter may be report
ed to the district board
1t is the duty of each citizen of this
county to make it their own business to
see that equal justice is done to all
registrants, and we must rely upon the
public to keep us informed as to
whether those who have been given de-
ferred classification live up to their
class. If they do not, then we want
you to tell us, so we can report the
facts to the district board.
Any man who has been given de-
ferred class as necessary farm
laborer, must remain on the farm and
work, or else he will be reclassified
and placed in class one, but we cannot
do this unless our attention is called
to it, by his neighbors.
Friendship should cut no figure in
this matter. 1t is duty you owe to
yourselves, to your neighbors, to your
own boys and to YOUR COUNTRY.
According to our records we have 23j
men in the service Of the Government
at this time. There are 4S5 class men
PAP class 2 men, and II class 8 men in
the county. 90 men have been disquali.
fed on physical examination, and II
men have claimed and been given de-
ferred classification because they were
without their first papers. We also
have 474 men in class one, and Al men
have been deferred upon other grounds
mentioned in the rules.

There were registered in Marshall
county 72o aliens, not including those
OF German nationality. Many of those
registered were prominent citizens in
their respective communities, had voted
at elections and had even held import
ant local offices. The registrants hail
from nearly all countries of Europe and
from Canada. Some labored under the
delusion that they were citizens while
others simply had neglected to take out
their citizens papers. All, no doubt.
regret now that they have neglected to
take out their citizens papers, as in the
future Uncle Sam will scrutinize very
carefully everyone admitted into his
family.

Court House News
No More Wolf BOunties.

County Auditor Lundgren has re-
ceived a letter from the Attorney Cen
erals office stating that two former
opinions Of said office in regard to wolf
bounties, have been reversed by a re-
cent decision of the Supreme Court in
test case brought from Roseau county.
The legislature having failed to ap-
propriate the money needed to pay the
bounty Of $3.50 promised by the state
for the destruction of each wolf. the
court holds that the law does not in
tend that, when for lack of appropria-
lions the state cannot nav the
county, the county must pay and await
the creation Of state fund. Marshall
county has paid out over $4,000 in wolf
bounties, which amount is now due the
county by the state and which the next
legislature will be asked to make good.
Under the court decision no further
payments of state wolf boupties can be
made an advance Of the appropria ton
covering same.
