Weather and Crons

Three weeks ago there were few
days of warm weather and little
dragging and seeding was done, but
the cold weather since then has pre-
vented further work.
This week there has been no rain
or snow, the weather is getting
warmer and the fields are drying out,
so that spring work is in full blast.
The season is already late, and
there is much plowing left over from
last fall. Farm help was scarce last
fall, winter set in early and the
many changes among the owners and
occupants of the farms all tended to
prevent the usual amount Of fall
plowing being done. 1t is probable
that on account of the lateness Of
the season there will be a reduced
acreage of wheat.

NEW ARMORY ASSURED
FOR MORRIS THIS YEAR
Plans Being Drawn by I. W. Henry Of
Aberdeen, S. D.; Work to Begin
July / .... -,

Work on the new armory is to be
begun this summer, according to a
statement made by P. L. Spooner,
chairman of the local armory COM
mittee.
At a meeting of the state armory
board on March 10, it was decided
that the money for all the armories
to be erected in the state during the
summer, was to be apportioned on
the 18th of the month. P. L. Spoon
er attended this meeting, and pre-
sented the plans for the new armory!
1t was found that it would be neces-
sary to build a smaller and somewhat
less elaborate building than had been
originally planned, on account of the
lack of sufficient funds, and it was de-
cided that it would be advisable to
reduce the structure in size rather
than to use cheaper material
I. w. Henry of Aberdeen, S. D., was
in Morris a few weeks ago to look
over the situation and the contract
for preparing the plans and specifica-
tions of the building was given to
him. One thousand dollars have also
been deposited with the tsate tras-
uerer, as a guarantee.
It is expected that work on the
building will begin about July 1, and
that it will be ready for use next
winter.

AT STATE CONVENTION
Average License Fee, of Not More
Than SIS a Car, To Be
Established

convention in the Twin Cities last
week is to be depended upon as a
reliable indication of the opinion If

county auditor C.. Il. Wollthan. All
of the county commissioners, o. N.
Dohlen, VIM. Gausman, Stephen Burt,
N. p. Mccklenburg and D. H. LAWYER,
attended the meeting.
ut is the aim Of the proposed
amendment to establish an avGra ge
license fee which need not exceed
$18 a car, depending upon the horse
power, weight, and value of the carr
explained C. M. Babcock, author of
the amendment. "By January 1,
1921, there will be 100000 motor
vehicles registered in Minnesota.
"An average license fee of SIS
each will bring $5,4OO,0OO annually
from that source. With federal aid
we should have more than $1O,OOO,-
900 a year with which to build 70
routes tentatively established in the
proposed amendment. That should
be sufficient to carry out the entire
program"
The Babcock Good Roads amend
ment which will be voted upon in
November at the general election
provides for the taking over by the
state, of 1000 miles of trunk high
ways connecting the county seats of

Fire at Fair Grounds

the ticket office, was destroyed by
fire which started at one So'elock
Wednesday afternoon. An alarm was
sent in by c. R. Wollthan, and he, C.
L. Hemming and Frank Haight went
out with the fire truck. The fire was
quickly put out by the three men, by
means of chemicals. The grass and
brush about the fence was badly
burned, and there was some danger
of the buildings catching on fire. It
is not known what started the blaze
but it is surmised that a spark from
the railroad track set the grass aflre.
