one OF the things that has done
much 20 modernize the average
country home and give the farmer
some advantages which the city

disposal in safe sanitary way is
comparatively simple.

two compartments, the first Of
which is known as the settling

EXPECT FUNDS TO
RETURNED SOON


Continued from first page)
Cross Manager HELD Saturday. The
matter was adjusted and the plan of
how the funds were to be returned 10
the farmers agreed upon.
The position of the Red Cross is
certainly commendable. The funds
were turned over to the different chap
tiers by reason of an activity, which
had its inception IN the federal food
administrators office in st. Paul. The
Red Cross had nothing to do with this
activity, which is now considered to
have been illegal. This fact being es-
'ablished, the Red Cross does not de
sire to hold the funds, and asks to be
dispOssessed. All that the national
organization of the Red Cross is con-
cerned about, is that the exact sum
turned into its Golfers from this ac-
tivity be returned to the rightful par
ties. 1t desires TO have no responsible
lily in the disbursing of these funds,
which is also quite proper, as it was
not concerned In the activity which
provinded them in the first instance.
The distribution of the funds will be
made from the office of the food adj
ministrator at st Paul, and the checks
will be mailed out from that office to
the farmers in this vicinity.
Expense Money, Etc.
1t is also understood that money
secured from farmers by we for ex-
penses will be returned to them. At
the present time this matter is under
con: Iteration.
IN Other Counties.
It il understood that the same pro-
