suffer for having served their country
during it's time Of need.
"Under the third phase Of the work
ahead of us, there comes to me the
thought that possibly this phase Of
years to come will mean our greatest
task. During the war, there we're two
great armies, that army which fought
at the front, and the army which
fought at home. We Of the American
Legion have now joined that great
army at home, and it is time for us to
take our place in community life, car
rviSg our share of the burden and the
duty Of making this country better
place for all of us to live in, so that
future generations may look back upon
this epoch in history and realize that
we of the American Legion did our
share not only in winning the great
war, but also in the gigantic task OF re-
construction with which we are now
battling and which, please God, shall
be brought to successful conclusion. -

Camp Dodge, where so many Minnesota

The Legion = and the Future
When the editor of the Hennepin
County Legionnaire asked DR.. A. A.
VanDyke Of st. Paul, new Legion
State Commander, to outline his pro-
gram for the Legion during the COM
ing year, Commander VanDyke replied
Gas I see it, our work for the next
year has three phases. First-to carry
on and complete our work in behalf of
our disabled. Second--To secure JUS
tice, equity, and equality for the ex-
service man, both from the standpoint
Of our relation with the government
and our relation with civilians and
civilian bodies. Third-To take our
place in every community, co-ordinat.
ing and bringing back that wonderful
spirit which existed throughout the
war, all working for the best interests
of our country and forgetting petty
jea]ousies which have crept in during
the last two years.
"Under the first phase, we must CO.
ordinate cur units and devise ways and
means of eliminating existing red tape
so as to bring the men in need OF help
closer to that branch Of the govern
ment which administers aid, so that it
may be done quickly and efficiently,
thereby relieving in the greatest mea'
sure possible, trouble and pain: We
must also devise some way Of obtain
ing more adequate treatment of those
borderline mental cases; those men OF
whom there are many, who, due to the
terrific strain to which they have been
subjected, have reached that twilight
zone Of mental disorder in which they
would remain but temporarily, if given
proper treatment and restored to nor
mality, whereas, if placed in existing
hospitals, they will not only fail to i'm.
prove as quickly as they should, but
will go the other way.
"Under the second phase, first comes
adjusted compensation, which must DC
accomplished through proving our case
not only to the bodies Of Congress, but
to the great American people, who are
lust, not from the standpoint Of patrlo
tism alone, but from the standpoint OF
the Justice and merit Of our claim
Also, we must secure better enforce
ment of the Soldiers Preference Act
locally, from the standpoint of the
state, and from a national standpoint
For the second part of the second phase
laid out for us, we must put our organ
ization on a more permanent basis OF
cooperation with all employers o.

POACHERS BETTER TAKE
WARNING

Certain parties from Little Falls
have been reported to Warden Totten
for shooting chickens in the neighbor-
hood Of Freedmen, which were less
than half grown. Also reports Of par
ties running dogs on the game refuge
end hunting southeast of town. Some
of these parties, he says, arc going to
face the court with their pitiful tale of
woe in the near future, if this habit is
kept up.
The sale of crappies has also been
closed in Morrison county, and num-
Der of changes made in the game laws
for 1921 and 1922. Those parties who
are not thoroughly familiar with the

NO HARD SURFACING ON j. H.
ABOVE ROYALToN THIS YEAR

No hard surfacing will be done on
the Jefferson Highway between Royal
ton and Little Falls this year. This in
formation is given out by J. E. Viner,
county engineer, who is in constant
touch with the state department. The
reason is that it is too late in the sea-
son to possibly get any paving done.
Advertising for bids and letting Of the
contract would extend we'll into the
frost season. The plan Of the highway
department now is to advertise for bids
this fall and let the contract so as to

LOCAL SQUAD IN GOOD CONDI-

BIG FIGHT

The annual football classic of the
county will be held on the local fiels
Friday when the Ionia warriors
meet the locals in what promises to
be the biggest game of the season.
Ionia got started late this season
because of the death from illness of
one of it's squad, but Coach Kant
ners' men are always prepared to
give battle, and will exert themsel-
YES to the utmost against Belding.
Dope would give Belding the edge
on her old rivals, but Coach Stevens
is not pred citing victory His men
are in good condition and ready to
fight for their lives, but they well
know the power which every lonia
team possesses. and that this power
S never fully demonstrated until
the Belding game.
Portland played both teams to 9
scoreless tie, altho the locals playe-
them in the mud. On wet field
Lake Odessa defeated lonia by 2
goal after touchdown Z to 6. It's
hard to tell just what will happer

QUALITY OF STATE
P0TAT0E CROP GOOD

That the quality of the Michigan
potato crop is good this year, al
though the crop volume is rather
light, is the opinion of H. c. Moore,
potato specialist at the Mich gan
Agricultural College. The crop
should handle well in transit and in
storage, as no serious developments
Of late blight have appeared in the
state.
Some confusion regarding the
Michigan crop has been caused this
year by the indiscriminate use of
terms in describing potato diseases,
Early Blight, or Tip-Burn, has been
serious in the state, but this disease
does not effect the keep ng qualities
of the tubers, although it causes the
teath of vines in the field. Late
Blight does affect the keeping quail
tiles of the tubers, but is not COM
mon in Michigan this year.

PLAN ON MAKING
bELO|NG BIG FOX
FARMING CENTER
TWO LOCAL COMPANIES ARE
ENGAGED IN PROMOTING FOX
PROPAGATING SCHEMES

Is Beld.ng, the Silk City, also des-
tined to become internationally
known as the center, or one of the
centers Of the fox farming industry
of the world? This is the question
which is presenting itself about this
time when the formation of two
separate companies or associations
which have as their aim and object
the purchase Of several pairs Of fox
es of the silver-black variety for
breeding and propagating purposes,
the animals to be raised for the pur-
pose Cf being sold as breeders and
slso TO be slaughtered and pets sold
LACK fox pelt is br rnging on the
fur markets.
While nothing definite has as yet
been done in the actual organization
Of the companies, great deal of
interest is beng manifested and a
lot of money has already been put up
by one of the concerns and their
breeding stock already purchased.
This organization will contract with
a fox breeder and dealer of long ex-
perience to handle their stock for a
year or so and then bring them here
to Belding and have some local man
who has learned the business of fox
care taker, look after the ranch. The
other concern has as yet sold no
stock, although there has been lot
of it plefged and they are at pres
ent looking for a location on which
to ranch the animals.
Everybody is interested in the bus
mess and several trips have been
made by interested parties to the
successfully established and operat.
ed fox farms around Muskegon and
other western Michigan points anc
glowing reports are brought back by
each fox farming enthusiast who
makes the trip.
The breeders sell at around $4,000
and $4,000 a pair and the pelts ot
the animals when slaughtered brinG
in the neighborhood of $1,000 TO 81.
500. While the industry is still il
its infancy, still the handling of tn,
animals has been so far mastered il
the past eight or ten years that bu
very few failures are reported an,
the increases each year have range,
around $50 per cent on the preced
ing years stock.
