War Tax
Burden Soon Over

The public will save approx
mately S1,500,OO0 a month as a
result OF the elimination Of the
War Tax on Express shipments.
according to George c. Taylor.
president OF the American Rail
way Express Co. An announce
ment to this effect was made to-
day by j. M. Lang, the local EX-
press agent.
The "Revenue Act OF 1921"
eliminates the War Tax OF one
cent on every twenty cents and
fraction thereof in transportation
charges on all express shipments.
This tax during the year Of 1920
amounted to $17,502,91S. The
average transportation charge for
each express shipment was an-
proximately 81 SO and the average
war tax for eaC hshiDmcnt was
eight cents. The elimination OF
the tax, therefore. MT. Taylor
states. will virtually amount to
q decrease in rates Of little over
five per cent. Mr.. Taylor be-
lieves that this should have a ten.
dency to stimulate business and
thereby accelerate the rapidly i'm
proving condition throughout the
entire country.
"The American Railway FIX.
pross Company handles approx
mately ono million shipments a
day or nearly four hundred mil
lion shipments a year" Mr.. Tay-
Tor goes on to say. The eltmIn-
alton Of the tax will relieve the
American Railway Express Com
pany Of an immense amount Of
labor which has been involved In
calculating, entering on waybills
and collection OF tax not to men
4ion of the expense of checking
and accounting cntailed,

LONDON Dec. 30.-(By the
Associated Press) Efforts at the
Washington conference TO curb the
use OF submarines and Frances
claim for large undersea fleet,
continue to he absorbing topics in
England. The majority Of the edI-
i torIa1 writer's assail the French at
titude, which the Daily Telegraph,
says faces the world with the pos
sibi1lty OF the worlds orientation
OF naval policy away from the cap
ital ships and toward the subma
riue." The newspapers think the
immense expenditures in the main
stenance of large fleets will wipe
out al Of tho savings effected by
adoption Of the ratio for capital
ships.

will tell you that you will never be

If you have a mare that has speed or
shows signs of it, breed her to sire

have this, examination to serve as a
medical record and to help establish
claim should any future trouble de-

Another. matter to be called to the
attention of our boys is that of rein
stating their insurance. Under the
new and more liberal provisions of the
bureau of war risk insurance the time
for reinstatement has been extended
to January /, 1922, and the list of pos,
sible benefciaries has been revised.
Ex-service men are urged to stop at
the Red Cross booth and learn about
the rates and policies now effective.
The bureau of war risk insurance.
with the aid of the Red Cross, is soon
to conduct cleanup campaign at
which time an effort will be made to
straighten out all claims now pending.
For this reason Miss Bowers is es-
pecially anxious to get in touch with
as many ex-service men as possible
before the arrival of the cleanup
squad. So all of our boys arc invited
to 'look i'm at the Red Cross booth.

remodeled to provide ample room for
all exhibitions. This exhibit should
prove the largest Of all as Mile Laos
county is noted for it's dairy products.
Show your animals if only one, show
it and help boost your county. All
cattle shown this fall must be T. B.
tested to protect the health of all ex-
hibits in that line. Any herds can be
entered that have been tested within
six months previous to the fair.
I might mention different exhibits
out space does not permit. However,
l want to call your attention to the
farm club and farm bureau unit ex-
hibits, every farmers club or farm
bureau unit should have an exhibit at
the fair This is the one best place
to get acquainted with the different
localities. Keen interest is usually
taken in these exhibits at all county
fairs. Mile Laos county with 80 or
more such clubs and it's possibilities
of production ought to put on the best
exhibit of that kind of any county fair
in the state. A few of the clubs have
had their exhibits at the county fair
for years past and I hope they will
continue to do so this year. Other
clubs should get busy and display
their products.

Soldiers Cleanup CAMPAIGN.

OOlulcIS Oledn-up campaign.
The home service section of the Red
Cross is also to be represented at the
fair. Miss Julia Bowers, our county
social worker, will conduct booth for
the benefit of our ex-service man. She
will endeavor to answer any questions
regarding compensation, federal train
ing, insurance, Minnesota state bonus,
in fact any query pertaining to gov
eminent matters of any sort that are
troubling the boys. An opportunity
will also. be provided for filing claims
for compensation or reimbursement,
or for reinstating insurance at the
booth.
Miss Bowers, in her work through
out the county, is finding a much
greater field for her services than she
had at first anticipated, for besides
the old claims, which number close to
100, new cases are continually being
called to her attention. Very often,
even at this late date and particularly
among the boys who have been gassed,
nervous troubles or lung and heart
complications are found to be develop

find themselves somewhat below par

URGES CLUBS TO EXHIBIT.
County Agent Hammargren Considers
Fair a Great Educational
institution

The county fair is one of our great
est educational institutions. The
people in that county and in the
adjacent territory can get to-
gether and study the various ex-
hibits from different parts of the
country. By doing this they learn in
what lines one part excels the others
and in nine out of ten cases they will
try to find out why the prize winner
is the best. There may be many rea-
sons-better cultivation, better care
of stock, more scientific breeding and
more improved system of farming.
These and many other things will be
noticed and invariably the visitor of
the fair will go home determined to
try to do just as we'll as his neighbors
and if anything 60 him one better.
The Mile Laos County fair this year
promises to be the biggest and best
that has ever been held.
The dairy industry is rapidly grow
ing and to take care of the exhibits
in that line the cattle barn has been

SCHOOL EXHIBITS
Mr.. Wasenius States Exhibits of Rural
Schools in 1921 Fair Will Ex-

Schools in 1921 Fair Will Ex-
eel Previous Displays.
The rural schools exhibit in the
Mile Laos county fair of 1920 was a
great improvement over previous
years both in quality as we'll as num-
Der of exhibits. The teachers, pupils
and parents in the county have shown
a great deal of interest in this phase
of school activities during the past
year, and we are assured of much
larger and better exhibit this year.
The maps and other material which
will be exhibited have been prepared
in correlation with the usual everyday
work in the school room during the
past year.
The fair management has been very
liberal in offering most complete
premium list with attractive premi-
ums and in providing excellent space
in the women's art building for this
department.
Some money was collected few
years ago towards a school exhibit
building. Then the war came on
with the resultant building restric-
