But good men are losing their lives

But good men are losing their lives
for opposing the manufacture and
use of Stump rum" Others are los
ing their lives for fooiing with it.
"Stump rum" is rising into wicked
existence and you will not believe
anybody has gone unbalanced if you
will run your eye over the daily pa
pers for while and watch it. 1t
has names all the way from "nigger
spit" to potash and alcohol. 1t has
people who worship at its shrine who
are warped and cramped and paral-
yzed. 1t has an army of young men
on the road to disaster and ruin. 1t
has troop after troop of elderly men
on the way to the mad house. 1t
is filling the courts and Jail houses
again.
If>you believe this is not serious
menace to your safety and the safety
of your home and community, you
are not awake to the nights red glare
of rum in your skies. You have no
count of the tremendous increase in
the traffic around you and over your
state. If you think it a joke, some
day right soon you must meet with
surprise.
We have no other motive than to
get you to see, so you may know that
one day soon you must cope with it.
This is a menace that is now on you.
1t is not a false alarm. Watch the
operation of the tiger still. 1t is the
worst form the drink habit could
ever take. The lawless atmosphere
in which it thrives should be cleared.

WHAT THING DOES YOUR
OWN CITY MAKE BEST
A Citv Should Consider its Natural
Resources and Concentrate on
One Main Industry

Speak up, cities of America! An
swer this question and put the an
swer into practice land you shall be
great. Of the 175 cities in the Uni
ted States with populations exceed
ing $4,000, every one, says William
Miller Booth, of Syracuse, N. Y,
writing to Chemical and Metallurgi-
cal Engineering New York, April
~ is a good location for one or more
industries and the best economic To-
cation for at least one. Its peculiar
adaptability to that one may be due
to the presence of an important raw
material, remarkable climatic con-
dition, or an unusual market. The
iron-ore industry of Duluth is given
by the writer as an example of the
first; the growth of the moving pic
ture business of Los Angeles, of the
second; and the Alaskan trade con-
trolled by Seattle, of the third. Now
one good industry employing thou
sand people will transform a self
sufficient retired business mans"
town into a thriving village or city,
and Mr.. Miller foresees intensive
studp undertaken by every munich
pality to determine what can best be
manufactured in that place. He goes
on:
eve remember Schenectady as a
sleepy, cobblestone-paved town of
10000 people. The presence of an
industry of national scope and inter-
est has made it a modern city of
nearly 100000; $4,000 of these are
men and women who earn good wages
with one concern.
eff town has grown through the
manufacture of raw material the
supply of which will soon be exhaus-
ted, the public-spirited citizens of
the place should attempt to find
substitute before the actual death of
the business. The saving or hand
ling of lumber is an example. Many
prosperous mining towns of the West
are depopulated when paying ore
ceases to be found"
The greater portion of the manu-
featuring of the United States, says
Mr.. Miller, is carried on within an
area bounded by lines connecting
Portsmuth, N. H.; Milwaukee, Wis;
st. Louis, Mo-; and Baltimore, Md.
Since 1850 manufacturing invest
ments in this territory have increased
from a few hundred millions to more
than twenty-five billions. He goes
on:
"'The general reason for the growth
in this limited area is the adaptable
ty of the people to the climate and
topography, with ample fuel and raw
material supply. Intelligent white
labor lives and thrives in belt about
two hundred miles north and south

Dear Mr.. Petersen:
After reading the article Mr.

reau and your note, as one of the
men who was instrumental in
getting Mr.. Corwin to his first
meeting in Bruno, | want to
disagree with your judgment in
regard to the personal contact
and individual help as compared
to his weekly news letter. As a
farmer and one who has changed
location quite often, it is my
opinion that the men who read
Mr.. Corwin's articles are also
men that take and read farm
journals. and these men need
very. little advice from Mr.. Cor
win. 1t is the man who is out on
the farm that is solving the prob
lens of Pine County who needs
the personal touch and individu-
al help. The farmers as a class
are slow to take hold and work
out as outlined in press articles.
but let them come in contact
with some man that can explain
and demonstrate some method
and give reasons. A live wire

of his enthusiasm into the indi-
vidual he meets and if he does
not. there rs not much help Tor

The weather has been any
thing but mild the past month
or two. We all notice it even
the animals do but they can
not help themselves when tied
to a post. For instance during
church services in Askov teams
are tied outside when there are
an abundance Of empty stalls in
the church barn. True each OF
those stalls are owned by some
one but undoubtedly the owners
would be glad to let anyone else
use them when not using them
themselves. Again, some who
have stalls drive to church in
automobiles and consequently
their stalls remain unused. We
know several who have agree
ments with others that they can
use their stalls when they are
not there themselves. but be-
lieve that more such agreements
could he made in order to save
the horses from unnecessary ex-
posture. Horses are occasionally
left on the streets for several
hours on week days when there
is absolutely no cause for it. At
that time there is all kinds Of
barn room.
