Three Years

News reports tell of the wrecking
of some of the great cantonments
where Americas army of young men
trained for its part in the World War.
The long. pine barracks which were
the only homes the soldiers knew
during their months Of preparation
are to come down; the tar paper
shaks known by courtesy as Officers
quarters" are to be reduced to scrap
lumber. Drill grounds, stamped
hard and bare by marching feet, will
turn green with another spring. The
rife range across which Sprin gfields
and Enfields spit their Ieaden storms
will be mere corn patches. The great
divisional parade grounds wherein
the new army saw itself for the first
time and thrilled to a sense of it's
force and power will revert to it's
ancient status as a pasture. No
longer will the encircling hills throw
back the strains of martial music
nor at sunset look upon thousands OF
little olive drab figures standing at |
attention as the flag comes down
1t was just three years ago that /
the finishing touches were being put |
on the environments and the strength
OF America was flowing in a great
stream from workshop and store and
mine and office into those bare pine
quarters. We felt that the nation
was coming into it's destiny and it
was with high hearts that we faced
the future. How we thrilled to our
ideals ard hopes; how firm we were
in our determination to make that
war the last war.
Any man or group of men who an
nounceed that they favored a separ-
ate peace with Germany and who be-
Titled the hopes of world league to !
prevent war would have been put in =

Poisoned by ButtermiIk.

A kind lady recently presented
Senator F. NJ. Cooper with a jar of
rich buttermilk, which he drank for
supper, using bread as filler"
These two articles were the only
things that he ate In a little while
he was taken violently i'll, and he says
that it took two doctors to save his
life. He is sure that the butter
milk was the cause of his illness.
The moral of this story is that peo-
pie milking cows or handling milk in
any way, should be extremely careful
to keep it absolutely clean, and not
only this, but they should give their
cows only the best of feed. Milk is
the readiest of all conveyors of dis
ease germs, and everything that
COW eats goes into her milk. 1t
should be said that in the case
stated above, DR.. Blount made a
thorough examination of the source
from which the buttermilk came, he
found every thing, milking pen, milk
containers, dairy (Storage room) and
all, scrupulously and absolutely
clean, and he could not account for
the presence of the ptomaines in the
milk He said that the COW which |
gave the milk, in ranging about the |
woods, might have eaten toadstools, !
Of which cattle are fond and which |
are poisonous to human beings.

Held Up. Being Filed Late

Those having bills against the
city which they desire paid at

of the month, must have them
presented by the 3Oth, in order
that they be classified and pre-
sented. Bills are usually pre-
scented about the first of the

are therefore held up necessarily
until the next meeting of the
Council The last meeting Of the
Council furnished an illustration
it falling on the End. and there
were but three bills presented. 1t

Residents Of Lower Walnut

tions to their homes, as we'll as
placing new sidewalks in front of
same, are now ready for the tar
via for the Improvement of the
street, and this has been promised
them by Councilman Charles Ter
rill, which means that they will
get it. They appreciate this and
are to ask to city council soon for
additional lights, for they have
got started at this progressive
movement, and it seems a little
movement all their own, for they
are cooperating in a way, and
this way seems~to be good for the
neighborhood, since the improve
nent work is continuing right
along.
They want more light, they
Iclaim, and believe they will get it
thus making that thoroughfare
one Of the attractive in the city

STATE TAXES TO
BE CUT NEXT YEAR
Announcement Made That State Taxes
Will Be Greatly Reduced
Coming Year.

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 year.
The new rate of taxation for state
purpose will be only 1913 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 spe-
cial state levies of 1.23 mills for
school and university and O5 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
81 1925, 900 cash on hand within 80 days
for such use as its members decide to
put it. The bonus money is already
coming in from June settlements of
tax collections with various counties
of the state.
Both announcements were made by
M. j. Desmond, superintendent of &C
counts, in Auditor Preus' office, who
was at his desk for the first time in
10 days following an operation for ap-
pendicitis. Mr.. Desmond computed the
new state tax rate and gave out the
forthcoming to enable the bo-

FOOD.

| The earth, undaunted by the way
men have been the last five or six
| years, continues to yield bountifully.
The rain, falling on the just and the
unjust, on the farmer with the mort
gage and his neighbor. the profiteer,
/ with his immense acreage, on the
lands of rich and poor, foolish and
wise, has happened to chose the right
day for it in a majority Of cases, and
presents us with the prospect Of a
bumper crop. The predictions of the
department Of agriculture, made
July l, have been ratified and improv-
ed upon, till now we find ourselves
with more food in store than we were
able to get together by extraordinary
efforts during the war
If the machinery Of civilization
worked as smoothly as the natural
processes that will fill our barns this
fall we should have nothing to worry
about. At it is, we may be justified
IN wondering whether certain human
factors will be equal TO the occasion.
viii there be enough farm labor, for
example, to keep up with the harvest
ing machines ? Will the farmer get an
adequate return for his labor, or will
he lind that the greater his output
becomes the lower the market quota
lions fall, till all he seems to get out
of bigger crops is the exercise of lift
ing them into wagons? Will the car
shortage carry over into the harvest
and make it impossible to move crops
in the direction of consumers with the
efficiency that keeps prices down and
makes cities prosperous? Are the
middlemen going to fatten on the
farmer at one end and the city work
ers at the other as they have been
doing ever since 1914?
Good crops are just naturally a
blessing, and all of us benefit in some
small way because they are good this
year. But we don't know yet how
to feed ourselves, and the hand that
holds the spoon to our lips doesn't be-
long to philanthropist. New York

| Norman raided the Hotel Nicollet in
this city early in the morning and To-
Gated still in full operation in the
basement. Evan Davis night clerk,
was arrested and was brought before
Judge l. M. Olsen at New Ulm Sat
urday and received fine of 500. The
still was a very crude affair being
constructed from kerosene can,
which was used as boiler From the
intake hole, large pipe was run
through barrel containing cold wa
ter, and the distillate was caught in
a glass jar beneath! The mixture
was heated by gasoline stove, and
the authorities estimate it's daily
capacity at four gallons When press
ed, the clerk admitted that it had
been in operation, for about two
weeks. The mash was made from a
mixture of molasses, raisens, yeast
and water, and was placed in barrels
to ferment. The officers found forty
gallons of mash. The clerk was given
light fine owing to his youth. 1t is
generally believed that he was only
an accomplice as strong indications
point to others being implicated. Eff
forts are being made by the authori-
ties to fix the blame. Mrs. Alma
Wachholz, a cook at the hotel, and
Mrs: E. c. Chadwick, proprietor of
the hotel informed the officers of the
whereabouts of the still. 1t had been
concealed in far corner of the cell
lar, where it could not be seen from
the windows. The mash had been
dumped near the sidewalk and could
be smelled from the outside. This
is the first still found in the city, but
it is believed that there are others in
operation in the immediate vicinity,
and no pains will be spared in locat-
ing the illicity peddlers, according to
the officers.

nus board to resume payments next
month. The announcement was made
over the protest of Henry Rimes, state
treasurer and bonus board member,
because of the objection he said that
it would mean bother for board mem
bers with former service men pulling
strings for preference on the payment
of their individual claims.
The difference is due in part to the
fact that the 1919 state legislature
made approximately $18,000,000
available at once, and only S14,O0O,-

creases in inheritance tax revenues
and the fact that railroad gross earn
ings were greatly in excess of esti-
mates also contributed to the lower
tax result.
Comparison between items for the
current and new tax rates are as fol-

ses, the money can be used by the
board, it is stated, to pay additional
bonus claims.
