LIKES PRIMA DONNA TO
SING "UNITED STATES

Our rtown turned out the other
might, to hear fair Alice sing: she
filled our souls with great delight
our hearts and everything. She sang
the songs of dear old France, apd
italy and Spain; to tell the truth,
the most Of these gives one an aw-
full pain. But we applaud and loud
ly cheer, yea, truly, there's the rub,
TO say you do not like them, marks
you plainly, as a dub. As each classic
number ended the cheers were loud
and long. and returning to the foot
lights she would render Just song.
You may rave about "A Spirit Flow
err "The Weathercock," THE
BALI, but the good old "Suwaunee
River" is better liked than all. And
although the other numbers make
you almost groan and sigh, your
heart is cheered and lightened by

State Taxes to
Be Lowered
RATE FOR 1921 TO BE 3.7S MILLS
INSTEAD OF 6.82 MILLS"
SAYS STATE AUDITOR.

Minnesota taxes will be lower next
year. This announcement was made
recently in the office of State Audi
tor Preus in the face of predictions
that although high this year, taxes
would be still higher next year.
The new rate of taxation for state
purposes will be only 3.78 mills, COM
pared with 6.82 mills in the current
rate, according to the preliminary esti-
mate which, it was said, will undergo
slight, if any, changes. The present
special state levies 1.23 mills for
school and university and .05 mills
for the teachers retirement funds,
will remain unchanged under the law.
The good news for taxpayers was
accompanied by more for former SER
vice men in the announcement that the
state soldiers bonus board will have
$1,325 900 cash on hand shortly for
such use as its members decide to put
it.
The difference is due in part to the
fact that the 1919 state legislature
made approximately $18,0O0,000 avail
able at once, and only S14,000,0O0 for
the next fiscal year. By increases in
inheritance tax revenues and the fact
that railroad gross earning were
greatly in excess of estimates also
contributed to the lower tax results.
Comparison between items for the
current and new tax rates are as fol-
lowS

Flood Control
Petition Filed
ORG GANIZATION OF TWENTY
EIGHT COUNTIES is SOUGHT
TO FORM SINGLE DISTRICT r

A petition for the organization OF
the entire Minnesota river watershed,
comprising territory in twenty-elght
counties, has been filed in the district
court of Brown county.
The counties included in the dis
trict are Big Stone, Traverse, Grant,
Stevens, Swift, Chippewa, Lac qul
Parle, Pope, Douglas, Kandiyohi, Rem
Vile, Mcleod, Sibley, Carver, Scott,
Nicollet, lie Sueur, Waseca, Freeborn,
Faribault, Blue Earth, Watonwan,
Brown, Cottonwood, Redwood, Lin
coin, Lyon and Yellow Medicine.
Judges of the 5th, 9Th, 9th, 9Th, 10th
18th, 18th, 10th, and 17th districts will
hear and pass on the petitions as soon
as date can be agreed upon, prob
ably some time next month.
This is the first step in the great
development project so long under
consideration. 1t is confidently be-
lieyed that there will be no objection
to the formation of the district as
this simply enables the people affected
to cooperate in preventing floods and
as far as possible utilizing the sur
plus waters for beneficial purposes.
When the district is organized five
directors will be appointed by the
court, who will have the management
of the affairs of the district. Any
proposed improvement must be petit
toned for and acted upon by the dis
trict court, where the improvement is
proposed to be made in similar man
ner as in judicial ditch proceedings.
1t will be remembered that meet
ing was held at Turner hall some
weeks ago and attended by num-
Der of these interested in the forma-
ton of the watershed of the Minneso-
ia river into a drainage and conser-
vation district. At that meeting suf-
ficient signers to the necessary petit
ton were secured, with the exception
of a few. These were later secured
and the filing of the petition is the re-
sult.-Brown County Journal.

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS TO
HOLD MEETINGS EVERY TUES
DAY EVENING AT CLUB.

The second meeting of the League
of Women Voters of Redwood Falls
was held last Thursday at the Com
mercial Club rooms, Miss Lora Fran
co.'s, chairman of the Second Ward
women presiding. An interesting and
instructive program was given, the
women presenting papers on the cur
rent topics of prediction Importance
including Miss Francois, Mrs. Starr,
Mrs. McRae and Mrs. Little. Discus
sions followed the reading of the pa
pers and several new questions were
presented for discussion at the next
meeting.H5"
1t was voted to have a meeting each
Tuesday evening from now until the
November election, these meetings to
be held in the commercial club rooms
and to begin promptly at eight o'clock
A feature of the meeting for this week
will be a question box which will sup
ply the answers for many of the
questions presented at the last meet
ing. Every women is cordially lnvit-
ed to be present and to take part In
the discussion of public questions
which most women feel the necessity
of studying in detail before casting
their first ballots. The League is en-
tirely without party affiliations and
its purpose is entirely other than max
ing votes for any one candidate or
group of candidates.
The purpose of the League is who'll
ly patriotic, the goal better Amer
ican citizenship. The League has
two great aims: To help women be-
come intelligent voting citizens; to
cooperate with the women of the
state in the building of a construct
i've program of legislation aimed es-
pecially at safe guarding and promot-
ing the best interests of women and
children

man voter in the county before the
November election Mrs. C. V. Ever

of Women Voters, in April appointed

work in her own locality.

Club Meeting Held.

The regular meeting of the Redwood
Falls Commercial Club was held at
the club rooms Monday evening. One
of the important matters discussed
was the finding of purchaser for the
equipment of the Redwood Falls Laun-
dry which is for sale. 1t was the con-
sensus of opinion that the city should
not permit this industry to be taken
from the city, and that the need of
a local laundry is a very real one. The
secretary, w. G. Weldon, was author
lied to take the matter up with one
or two companies which have already
shown a desire to come here and to
find other prospective buyers in case
an acceptable agreement could not be
made with those who have already ap-
piled. The present owners of the
laundry are desireous of changing
their location for personal reasons
and it is necessary that new man
agement be formed if the city is to
retain a laundry service. The Club
roster was increased by two new
names, Messrs O'Meara and Taylor
being the new members who were un-
animously elected at this meeting.

Salvation Army
Makes New Plans
FIRST ANNUAL CONVENTION OF
MINI. ADVISORY BOARD PLANS
FINANCIAL CAMPAIGN.

The first annual convention OF the
Minnesota Advisory Board of the Sal
walton army was held at the West
Hotel in Minneapolis during the week
of the State Fair. Over seventy OF
Minnesota's eighty counties were rep
resented at this meeting.
The convention opened September y
with an invocation by Col. Stephen
Marshall. This was followed by an
address by Brig. VIM. S. Hanke. Then
followed talks by officers and field
workers of the Salvation Army. These
were wonderfully interesting and ex-
plained in detail the splendid work the
army is carrying on in taking care OF
bows and men and girls and women
throughout the country.
After the talks came the presenta-
tion of the state budget of 1858 10000
which was adopted. The campaign for
the raising of this budget will be made
the week of October II to 18. Red
wood County's quota in this campaign
is the very modest apportionment OF
s475 90 which will be divided among
the twenty-six townships according
to their population.
The state budget fund will be used
by the Salvation army as follows; IN
expansion of present rescue homes, IN
county relief work, children's rescue
work, work in prisons and among prl-
soners' families and for the mainten-
ance of charitable and religious work
in the cities where the working corps
of the Salvation army are stationed.

Ex-Service Men!
Attention.!

1t is very necessary that the Red
wood County chapter of the American
Red Cross receive the questionaire
which were sent out to the men WIN
enlisted from Redwood county. !
great many have answered and re
turned their questions but a numb
are yet out over the country. Some
have moved away; others have n
needs which they wish to present t.
the Red Cross. These facts however,
must not prevent the soldiers from re-
turning his QUESTIONABLE. The Rel
Cross wants the communication to Sc
cure complete line on all men who
enlisted If you have lost your ques-
tions, a postal card addressed to the
Secretary at Redwood Falls will get
you another set.
1t is hoped that .ex-service men will
attend to this request at once for it is
very necessary that all reports be in
before winter. Glenn Lukens, execu-
tive secretary of Redwood County A.

Took Many Prizes.
"sEE THEM AT THE FAIR" !"

SEE THEM AT THE FAIR
Two Redwood county men who are
elated over their showing in the state
fair exhibits are A. P. Rams of Clover
Bloom Farm and Will Green of Air
dale Farm, both of whom exhibited
herds of Big Type Chester Whites.
There were twenty-seven herds rep
resenting about 500 head in the Ches-
ter White class alone. These herds
were from seven states in various
parts of the country and undoubt-
edly offered the stiffest competition
for Chester White honors that breed
er would go up against IN any state
fair in the union. Among others was
the famous herd from the Scott farm
in Missouri. In spite of that Redwood
county came out with flying colors for
Messrs. Rams and Green brought home
fourteen ribbons including first prize
on aged sow owned by Mr.. Rams and
second prize on Junior yearling boar
owned by Mr.. Green. This boar High
Prince" was defeated for first place
only by the grand champion boar OF
Minnesota and Wisconsin. Besides
these two top liners twelve other hogs
in the two herds got in on the winn-
ings which is not only a big send off
for Messrs. Rams and Green but it is
a distinct credit to the hog industry
of the county. At the fair A. P. Rams
sold "Billy," second grand champion
boar at North Dakota fair and fourth
at Iowa fair, for long price to w. c..
Smith of Milbourn, Iowa. Both of the
local breeders made numerous good
sales at the fair and their herds are
becoming known to hog men through
out the Northwest and many breeders
expressed their intention of keeping
in touch with the local men with view
of taking some of their offerings at
spring sales. When you can get up
to the top-notchers at the Minnesota
state fair breeders around the country
sit up and take notice. Both of these
prize winning herds will be at the
Redwood county fair where they will
be admired by hundreds Of spectators.
