Corn Husking
Price Adjusted
PRESENT PRICES PROHIBITIVE;
LOCAL FARM BUREAU SUG-
GESTS NEW SCHEDULE.

What is to be the price for husking
corn? This question has been asked
by so many farmers, that the county
agent has been obliged to call meet
ing of the executive board Of the Farm
Bureau for the purpose of making such
recommendations as they deemed most
advisable.
The board very carefully considered
the market price of corn. For exam
pie corn various places was sell
ing as low as So cents per bushel,
while corn pickers were asking from
IL cents to 20 cents bushel.
Now taking into consideration the
farmers investment, his responsible
ties, the market value of corn, the
board came to the unanimous conclu-
sion that the present price Of from
12c to zoe for husking a bushel OF
corn was more than the farmer could
afford, and as result the Farm Blu
reau board made a recommendation to
the Farm Bureau Federation office at
St. Paul that the price of husking q
bushel of corn be set at cents and
where the husker must shovel his
grain the price be fixed at 8 cents pei
bushel.
At the time of writing the Red
wood county Farm Bureau received
communication from Brown county
stating that the price of 7 cents pei
bushel for husking corn was the re,
commentator of the Farm Bureau

Another Call in
Northern Division
MEN AND WOMEN SORELY IN
NEED OF FOOD AND
CLOTHING.

Mrs. Kerswell the librarian at the
Red Cross northern division has re-
ported to the local Red Cross a most
pittiful condition among families liv-
ing in Northern Minnesota and parts
of northern Montana. These desti-
tute people have had no crops for sew
eral years, none during this season on
account of drouth. The only vegeta-
bles they have is a few carrots. The
men make a precarious living by hunt
ting and fishing, but its hard work tc
get food enough to keep their families
from starving.
Some of the women told Mrs. ker-
we'll that they ard their children re
ceived no clothing in five years. To
day they are dressed in rags and viii
probably freeze to death this winter
if not assisted at once. This is {
grand opportunity for our charitably
inclined people to get busy and relieve
these people before winter sets in.

Redwood County
Institute Closes
WAS MOST SUCCESSFUL ONE EV
Err HELD IN REDWOOD
COUNTY.

On Friday the county teachers Of
Redwood closed one of the most sue
cessful county Institutes that have
ever been held here. Throughout the
meetings those in attendance mani
tested a spirit of cooperation and en-
thusiasm that was a fine tribute to
the qualities of leadership possessed
by our county superintendent. The
workers sent out by the state were
ably assisted by the local county lead
ers. Many progressive and practical
ideas were given to the teachers.
The Teachers Patriotic League took
an active part in the work of the week.
New officers were elected and new
committees appointed. These commit
tees made plans for patriotic work and
for self-improsement for the present
year. A plan was set on foot where
by it is hoped that portable moving
picture machine may be purchased for
| the county,.
Social affairs were delightfully."- wo-
ven in with the educational work. On
Tuesday evening program was given
consisting of ideas for organizing and
carrying ont the boys and girls club
work. Several stunts performed by
groups of teachers enlivened the en-
tertainment. The club demonstra-
ton was followed on Wednesday by
a health program. Besides the usual
health chores, calisthenic exercises
songs, and games were presented
perhaps the most popular of the soci-
al events were the picnics that were
| given in the park.
Beyond a doubt this institute will
have a decided effect upon the teach
ing in the county. Many teachers
were heard planning ways of carry
ing out in their practice the ideas
gained. An enthusiasm for better
schools and better communities has
been aroused. AS result of the acti-
vities of the week the teachers have
returned to their districts with re-
newed feeling of loyalty to the ideals
| for which Redwood County stands.

New Coal Carrier

TY RIGHT TO OPEN TOP
CAR EQUIPMENT.

The new order Of the interstate COM
merce commission putting practically
every bit of open top equipment with
sides into coal carrying was character
lied by Stanley B. Houck, attorney
for the Twin City Coal exchange, as
probably the most important order at
fecting coal movements since Order
No. 10 went into effect. 1t will have
the effect Of returning thousands OF
cars to coal carrying, he said, and Will
materially improve movement OF coal
into the northwest from Illinois, lndl-
ana and Arkansas mines, he declared
1t will also speed distribution of Goa!
hat has reached lake docks, Mr.. Houck
said, although it has no effect what
ever on the movement Of coal from
eastern mines to Lake Erie ports.
The new order gives coal complete
priority right to open top equipment
in territory east of the eastern boun-
dairy Of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado
and New Mexico. Many of these cars
have been carrying cement, gravel
rock or similar materials.
