milk SURPLUS IS Claim
DAIRY EXPERTS ALSO SAY
PRICE TOO HIGH
Lower Cost Would Mean Great
er Consumption and Profits
Be Equal

Chicago, November 24.-[Corres-
pondence Of The Associated Pressl
There is a surplus of milk in the
country and milk prices generally
should be lower than they are, ]. w.
Coverdale, secretary of the American
Farm Bureau Federation, said here
in explanation OF the federation's
call for national conference Of milk
producers. The conference, he said,
aims to work out some better method
of marketing milk and will consider
the possibilities of cooperation.
A number of condenseries absol-
utely refuse to buy milk and many
producers don't know what to do with
a large part of their supply" Mr..
Coverdale said. "In New York state
producers have put up several OF
their own condenseries and have
bought several more that had closed.
They propoge to can their milk and
lay it away on the shelves until the
time when the public will want 1t.
.. Price Could BE Lower.
There is so much milk without
a demand for 1t that / think milk
could be sold for less and still pay
out. People would use more of it.
Some of the people are not using as
much milk as they should.
"The present difficulty dates back,
I think, to the high price Of sugar.
Sugar is used In condensing milk and
the condepseries filled their shelves
With milk rut UP at high price. There
is no EXPORT sale and the condenser
toe tx-,yi fo fIn az
to buy this milk. The people are not
doing it. and the result Is there Is
too much condensed milk in the
country"

CASE WAS REVERSED
Action In Which Mankato .Parties
Had An Interest

Action In Which Mankato Parties
Had An Interest.
The case Of Jane Evans against
Anna Evans, which was tried some
time ago in the district court of June
au, Wis, and verdict found in favor
of the plaintiff, but later reversed by
the supreme court OF that state in
favor OF the defendant. will be OF In
terest to Mankato people owing to
the fact that the husband of Anna
Evans. John A. Evans, who died dur
Ing the year 1917, was inducted into
the United States army at Mankato,
but later died at Camp Cody. New
Mexico.
The original action involved 18o
acres of land in Dodge county Wis
consin. John A. Evans before entering
the United States army, had decided
his farm to his mother, Jane Evans,
as security for money loaned to her
son, John A. Evans. The young man
was inducted into the United States
army at Mankato In 1917, but In Dec
ember Of that year died at Camp
Cody. His widow, Mrs. Anna Evans,
claimed that the deed in fact was q
mortgage. and asked the district
court OF juneau to declare it such and
permit her to pay her mother In law
the indebtedness on the farm, and to
have the same returned to her DOS :
session. The trial court at Juneau de-
cided that the transaction was q deed.
and not mortgage. but an appeal
was taken to the supreme court OF
Wisconsin at Madison, and that body
reversed the decision of the lower
court.
Brossard, Bonard OF Columbus, Wis.
and Regan &Grogan OF this city app
cared In the trial of the case as attor-
neys for Jane Evans and C. L. Laur-
isch OF this city as attorney for Anna
Evans, who has now been awarded
possession Of her deceased husbands
farm.

Hans Jensen, the young man arrest
ed by Chief of Police Jacob Hilgers
Sunday night on the charge of forg-
cry in the second degree, was arraign-
ed yesterday afternoon before Judge
Hiram Goff in the municipal court on
that charge. Through his attorney,
G. q. Gilmore, he waived examination
and was bound over, to await the ac-
tion Of the grand jury at the next term
Of the district court in February.
The father of the defendant, c. p.
Jensen Of Emmettsburg, Ia, arrived
here to- day. He stated to The Free
Press that his son had always been a
hard working young man, and he Is
at loss to understand his foolish steps
at this city, unless he got into bad
company.
The father was under the impress :
ion that his son passed but one bogus
check, but he said that when he learn
ed the number he had passed, he ad-
vised his son to make clean breast
OF 1t and take his punishment 1t is
more than likely that the defendant
will plead to an information within
few days in the district court. Mean
time he will remain In, the custody Of
the sheriff.
