Big immigration to Minnesota.

Arrival of 48 land buyers from
seven states to take up their residence
on Minnesota farms in September was
pointed to by Oscar H. Smith, state
immigration commissioner, as fore
taste of heavy immigration into the
state. Most of the arrivals, he said,
were former renters who found they
were unable to pay high rental prices
demanded in other states.
'The immigrants" said Mr.. Smith,
'came from Iowa, Wisconsin, Michi-
gan, Montana, North Dakota, South
Dakota and Nebraska, the greater
number from Iowa. The 48 families
scattered among the 20 different
counties. In the northern section Ait
kin county received the largest num-
Der, with Marshall and Beltrami coun-
ties close second. In the central Sec
ton, Pine county leads with Meeker
a close second, while in the southern
division Dakota county Jared the
best. Everyone of these 48 families
came here with the intention of max
ing their future home in the best
agricultural state in the union. They
not only brought their household ef-
fects and other personal property, but
the records in our office show they
came prepared to improve and till the
land, bringing with them considerable
farm machinery, besides 1874 horses
and 1856 head of cattle. While the
September showing is very satisfac-
tory, there is every prospect that o.
tober will show the largest influx of
settlers into the state of any month
of the present year."

T. B. SYMPTOMS in Poultry.

tuberculosis in poultry flocks can
not be fought with success until the
disease has been positively identified
and systematic measures taken to
stamp it out. If the owner has reason
to believe that his birds are afflicted
he should send one, dead or alive, to
the veterinary division, University
farm, st. Paul, for examination. Dead
birds can be sent by parcel post.
Symptoms by which the disease can
generally be detected are thus sum-
married. by DR.. w. A. Billings Of
University farm:
"Soon after Infection the birds are
noted to be falling off in their appe-
tite and appear listless. Their move
ments are slow and they are easily
caught. AS the disease progresses
the comb and wattles may become
pale in color. Diarrhoea may be not
ed at this stage and this continues un-
til the end. The bird now becomes
very thin and there are little or no
breast muscles in some cases. The
breast bone is easily felt. The ave-
rage handler of poultry usually speaks
Of this condition as going light.
IF bird showing these symptoms
dies or is killed the liver is found
to be much enlarged and dotted with
yellowish-white spots of varying size
and number. These spots may be
found on the ihtestines in the form of
yellowish Jumps. The spleen, the
small round organ located under the
liver, may also contain these spots.
If birds show the above combination
of physical signs and appear as de-
scribed inside one can be practically
sure of the presence of tuberculosis.

Immediate reductions in freight
rates on the necessities Of life,
amounting to- at least $25o,000, 900,
are asked by the American Farm Blu
reau federation in formal petition
filed with the, Interstate Commerce
commission by it's attorneys. The ma
tional federation began legal action
to force down freight charges as re-
suit of conference of the officers of
10 midwest farm bureau declarations
in the offices of the Minnesota fedora
ton several weeks ago. Declaring
that present freight rates are unjust
and violate the transportation act, the
national federation filed it's petition
on the ground that farm bureau men,
bers are suffering loss ana injury by
being forced to pay unreasonable
transportation charges. The. efficient
operation of the railroad properties
demands that both the railroad cor
porations and railroad labor should
join in concurrent reductions in their
charges, after the railroads have first
made substantial reduction in their
rates such as has already been forced
upon railroad labor" the farm bureau
petition says.
The federation demanded immediate
reductions ranging from 10 to 20 per
cent, and subsequent cuts sufficient
to wipe out altogether the rate in
creases made last year.

Value of the County Fair.

Hard luck has been the lot of ma
jority Of the county fairs in western
Minnesota this fall. Heavy rains
ruined excellent prospects that had
been built up by weeks of work. The
important place which these fairs fill

shown, however, in the determination
of every county to continue the good

 After emigrating across the steppes of Asia in the stone age, the New

But again they moved on, this time compelled by increasing pressure of Mongolian hordes coming down from the high plateaus of the , continent, and they went out to find new habitations across the wide eN- panscs of the Pacific.
 There they set up an island emport, with it's capital the great megalithic city, the walls of which still statnd,

OF \. NJ. c. A. WoR

l As Norwich Y. NJ. C. A. men in attend ance this week in New York at the 34th annual meeting of the international com mittee of the Y. M. c. A. listened with great interest to an address by General John J. Pershing, who was the principal guest at the meeting which was held at the Waldorf-Astoria, and was attended by fully 1000 men.
 Saying that nine-tenths of the welfare work overseas was done by the Y NJ c. A, General Pershing acknowledged the debt owed not only by the former ser vice men but by the country to the Young Mems Christian Association for the work it did in France.
 General Pershing was outspoken in saying that some of the criticism direct ed against the Y. N. c. A., because of it's alleged shortcomings in France, was unjust and he made it plain that organ ization of a rival nature hastened to l take advantage of this criticism. He ex- i plained that the Y NJ. c. A. had taken charge of the army csnteens at his di- rection, and that the inability of the '. NJ. c. A. to provide canteens witt adequate supplies was due. first to tht fact that the space originally allotted tC the Y. NJ. C. A had to be decreased ai
 
 difficulty of increasing it's personnel witt efficient workers to keep pace with th, | arrivals of forces in France.
 Tt was In the World war that " came in closest touch with the organiza ton," said General 1'etAning. Your rep resentatives were already in the fel when our advance troops reached Franc, They were ready and anxious to be c every possible service. Supported b your patriotic membership here at hon1 and under the leadership of that abI administrator, MT Carter. the organiza ton began to expand at once to meet ou needs.
 I've all had our. hands very full those trying days. The army had to I organized and a great geneIal sta had to be built up to handle the mutt Jude of details as to plans of operation supply and transportation. It was the midst of these preparations that called up Mir Carter and asked the M C. A. to take charge of the army cal teens to follow our troops. He respon ed promptly and entered upon the wol as duty"
 Referring to the difficult transport ton situation and other obstacles m by the organization, General Pershir , said:
 All these things were a tremendor , handicap, and when it's work come to | compared with that of other welfare 0 f ganizations operating with far less T . sponsibility and covering Sonly speci , areas, there arose some unjust criticis of which. other organizations too oft | took advantage.

Gratitude Gifts for Parsonage Building

to be living in this age when the calls to service are so plentiful-as well as prac tical.
 Everybody needs a home-there is a peculiar sacredness about ones own four walls, and our missionaries are entitled to their houses, comfortable ones, at that. Mrs. Taintor told of meeting an old missionary couple, grown gray in the work, who had never yet occupied a finished house. and who were looking with patience to the House of Many Mansions. perfected and finished by the Divine Builder, as their first real home. Since the Son of Man had not where to lay His head, we can do things in His name for His representatives here on earth and a parsonage to cover the heads of a hard working home mission ary and his family, would indeed be an offering worthy of the Best Friend of mankind. Think of Christ as homeless and hungry, and then apply your active practical Christianity towards helping build homes for His preachers.
 The time is so short; no opportuni- tv for spreading the Gospel must be lost it is our privilege, said Mrs Taintor, to heln build for the Divine Master, and tc hold un the hands of these, His spokes- mon. who for His great cause, have gladly given up the comforts of life. to preach the Word in these hard places 6f our land.
