TROOP TRAIN PASSED
CARRYING WESTERNERS

A troop train carrying the 18th
Coast Artillery, a Washington Oregon
regiment, passed thru Willmar yester-
day forenoon on its way to Camp
Lewis, WASH, where the men will be
mustered out. The regiment was
made up in part by regulars and these
however, will not be discharged from
service at this time but are to serve
their term out.
The 39th was at New York, ready to
embark at the time peace was signed,
many of them having received their
overseas equipment.
Members Of the canteen committee
Of the Red Cross were on hand with
little treat for the men and as the
train made quite long stay and the
snow would pack just right for snow
balling there soon developed a battle
royal between these western soldiers
and our Willmar girls.

ak, roses and carnations and banked
with ferns. The attendants were

The Common Burberry Convicted.

The Common Burberry Convicted.
The common barberry has been
proved to be the arch villain in the
spread OF the black stem rust of wheat
which annually robs the farmers of
the northwest of millions upon mill
ions of dollars.
The campaign for the eradication OF
the barberry as the producer of the
spores which infect wheat, which was
carried on last summer, has brought
out abundant evidence to show that
the common barberry (not the Japan
csc barberry) is guilty. The evidence
runs like this:
Wisconsin farmers suffered serious
loss from stem rust of wheat last sum.
mer, and in every one of large numbers
OF cases investigated except two, the
infection was found to be directly
traceable to infected barberry plants
in the vicinity. AS the spores from
the barberry may be carried far by
the wind, and as the common barber
ry is getting foothold as a wild plant,
it is possible that the two fields refer.
red to were infected in the same way.
In Montana absolutely every case of
infection was found to be traceable to
the presence of infected barberry
plants.
Wherever the rust was found it
was found not far from infected bar
berry plants, and the rust was worse
nearer the plants than farther away.
The only place where any rust could
be found in wheat up to the middle
of June was near barberry plants.
This and other striking evidence
leaves little doubt in the minds of
those who have campaigned against
the barberry that it is the principal
factor in spreading infection.
E. c. Stakman, Of the Minnesota Elk,
pertinent station, who headed the cam
paign in the central west for the Unit
ed States government; E. M. Freeman,
also Of Minnesota Experiment station,
who had charge of the campaign in
Minnesota, and A. c. Ruggles, state
entomologists, believe that the state
should completely eradicate the bar
berry as early as possible before it
has a chance to establish itself as q
wild plant and thus become q constant
menace to the prosperity Of Mime
sofas farms.

RELIEF WORK MUST BE
CONTINUED FOR MONTHS
Enrolment of Members in Red

and Canar,l

ana General.
Now that the war is won. manv
Kandiyohi county citizens are asking
why the Red Cross is planning to en-
roll the entire population of the county
as members the week before Christ
mas.
Chairman Fink of tho County Exc.
cutive Committee Of the Red Cross
Christmas Roll Call organization
makes the following reply:
"Starvation, sickness and sorrow did
not vanish in Europe when the fighting
ceased. On the contrary, the new
conditions have revealed greater op-
p0rtunities for the American people,
through the Red Cross, to extend re-
lief. This work is just as imperative
in peace as in war, though not so
dramatic.
Besides Kandiyohi County boys in
France or in home camps, with mil.
lions OF other American soldiers, and
sailors have right to expect that Red
en.ss service will be continued for
them in full measure until demobilizar
ton is completed. This means the
Red Cross must carry on for many
months, and the money raised through
membership dues will help finance the
service"
All that is asked of any adult in the
Red Cross Christmas Roll Call is that
he or she shall have "a heart and a
dollar" When you multiply these
hearts and dollars by the millions Of
adults in the United States, it is evil
dent that a substantial total will be
raised if the response to the Roll Call
is general.
Children will not be solicited, as
they already are represented in the
school auxiliaries, or will enroll
through the auxiliaries at twenty-five
cents year, but they will be valuable
aids in the Roll Call by reminding
their parents Of the opportunity to reg
lister approval of the greatest relief
work in the history Of the world.
