the proposed rising Of the floor, the
floor in the LOBBY will incline toward the
entrance doors, but the rise will be SO
slight as to be hardly perceptible.
Work on the new floor will be started
just as soon as weather conditions per-
NIT and when completed will, with the
new opera seats, comprise an improve
ment that will no doubt be greatly
appreciated by the patrons of the

FARMERS Are
BEING MULCTED
AGENTS OF A MINNEAPOLIS
"SECURITIES COMPANY
BUSY In STATE.
SELL GERMAN GOVERNMENT
BONDS. DELIVERY DATE
NOT SPECIFIED.

Our attention has been called to the
fact that certain so-called Securities
Company of Minneapolis has agents
working in different parts of Mime
sofa, offering for sale to Germany's
sympathizers, bonds of the German
government. Where cash is not avail
able, Liberty Bonds are readily ac-
cepted in payment for the securities.
A thriving business seems to have de-
veloped, according to reports, and un-
less the operations of agents are
checked, there will be many disap-
pointed farmers when the latter wake
up to find that they have been 'stung. y
Greatly InfatedMark Value.
In the first place, the amount of the
German government bonds is expressed
in marks" not in dollars and cents.
These marks are sold by the glib
tongued representatives of the Mime
apolis concern atabout four times their
market value and to cap the climax,
the bonds are not delivered to the pur-
chasers by the agents.
How "Skin Game is Worked.
For cash or Liberty Bonds presented
in payment for the German secu rites
! the farmer is handed receipt which
states that the described bonds will be
delivered. No time limit is fixed for
this very important final transaction
and the holder of the receipt could not
enforce delivery in hundred years,
even though the Securities Co." was
financially responsible.
Are Working Herabouts.
| Evidence has been received by some
OF the local banks that the Minneapolis
concerns representatives are working
in the vicinity Of New Ulm and have
already disposed Of some of the bonds.
A number of their victims have be-
come rather uneasy as they have as
yet failed to receive the securities and
have called on their bankers for aevice.
AS stated above, delivery cannot be
forced, for the receipts bear no evidence
of the date upon which it is to be made.
Safe Course to Follow.
A safe course for those to follow who
desire to invest in foreign or domestic
Isecurities of any kind, is for them to
consult with local bankers (any home
bank will be glad to serve its patrons

WANTS LEVER
LAW REVISED
Dial Advocates Change in Inter
est of Cotton Producers

Washington. May 2f-Revision OF
the Lever cotton futures trading law
in the interest of cotton producers
was advocated today before the Sen
ate AGRICULTURAL committee by Sena-
tor Dial. Soutl, Carolina, cotton
planter. and mill owner. He declared
the law did not work honesty. and
added:
I'm surprised that it has been al-
lowed to remain on the statute books
Senator Dial produced figures to
show that through speculative future
trades in one year there had been sold
on the cotton exchange eight times
the total cotton actually, produced.
The Senator said he was not attacking
the exchanges b, he said that fu-
ture speculative tA.ding should not be
allowed to affectSthe prices OF spot
cotton lie expressed doubt whether
maintenance of exchanges was neces-
sary to the cotto;3 trade.
A specific bill which Senator Dial
supported as a remedial measure was
his bill to\anenG the law relating to
performance OF future contracts. It
would give the seller as we'll as the
buyer the right to deliver one-half or
the contract in two or more grades.
This. said Senator Dial, would tend to
steady and regulate spot prices and
place sellers on 4 closer plane with
buyers.
The committee deferred action on
Senator Diars bill

very good TO excellent progress IN
Texas and fair to very good advance
in the Mississippi .lley. while some
Improvement was reported in Ala
bama and Georgia during the week
Just ended, according to the national
weather and crop bulletin issued to-
day. The week was mostly warm and
drv in the central and western por-
tons Of the cotton belt. but was
cooler in the eastern portion, with
some heavy rainfall In the southeast.
Heavy rains were detrimental III
some Southeastern districts and
growth was slow in the Carolinas on
account Of cool nights and cloudy
weather. { ditions generally were
favorable for farm operations and
cultivation and chopping advanced in
the southern portion of the belt. while
planting and replanting made satls-
factory progress in the northern and
northwestern portions. except in the
dry areas of Texas and oklahoma.
Owing to previous unfavofable
weather the condition Of the crop
continues unsatisfactory in much of
tho belt. with many complaints OF
moor stands Condition is very good
in the southern half Of Texas and
squares arc forming in the lower
coast counties. Weevil are reported
from portions of Georgia.

Washington. May 23.-The long
battle in congress over the emerg-
ency tariff bill was ended today
when the house by vote of 245
to 81 adopted the conference report
to which the senate already has
agreed. The measure was sent to
the White House, where it is eX-
pected to be signed by President

AS finally passed it carries tariff
duties on 80 odd products of the
farm with compensatory duties on

tary Of the treasury to employ pen
alties in staving off dumping of
foreign made goods, continues the
war time control over importation
of dyes and operates to clarity
tangles in the assessment of duties
which result from foreign exchange

At its first appearance and through
the long debates that followed. op-
ponents of high tariff predicted re-
taliatory action by Canada, by the
South American countries and by
some nations of Europe. Chairman
Fordney of the house ways and
means committee, which drafted the
bill said, however. that no protests
had come and that he had seen signs
