the Review, County Agent o. o..
Horlamus of Nicollet county started
a campaign for helping the famine

the cars will arrive at Klossner this
morning and remain there until 2:3O
o'clock this afternoon to give the
farmers in that vicinity an opportunity
to bring in their donations. From there
the car will be taken to Lafayette to
absorb the quota in that vicinity.
Simultaneously a car will arrive at
Nicollet this morning and will be
stationed at Traverse in the after
noon. Both will be billed out tonight
for the Twin Cities, where they will
take their places among the two train
loads which the farmers of Minnesota
are sending to the West coast enroute
to the Near East. Nicollet county
farmers have agreed to donate total
of 2, $50 bushels.

SOW YOUR WHEAT.

Get your wheat in early is the
message Of J. III. Doty veteran Court
land farmer and one of st. Peters re-
spected residents. He states that ever
pit OF wheat in Nicollet county should
be sown during the month of March,
and the sooner the better, if the farm
ers are to get bumper crop this year.
In order to experiment, Mr.. Doty
soWed some wheat in his garden on
March 1st and now finds that It has
sprouted and has taken firm root. All
danger OF cold weather is now past, he
says, and the fields are in excellent con-
dltlon for planting now. If wheat last
year had been planted two weeks
earlier, he says, the yield would have
been double in this section Of the state.
1t was during the last ten days before
harvest that the smut and heat took
half the crop. He says there is no
need OF that this year. He also states
that it is reasonable to expect rainy
weather soon, when it will be impos-
sible to get into the fields to SOW. Mr..
Doty remembers two springs as early
as this year. The first he says was
IN 1852, the year of the Indian massa-
ere, and the second was in the '7O's,
during the grasshopper plague. st.

AMERICAN LEGION
AUXILIARY HERE
TEMPORARY ORGANIZATION IS
PERFECTED AT MEETING
MONDAY EVENING.
CHARTER HAS BEEN APPLIED
FOR AND DRIVE FOR
MEMBERS is ON.

At a meeting held at the New
Ulm Armory, Monday evening, and
which was attended by about dozen
ladies, it was decided to organize a
Women's Auxiliary of the American
Legion here. This action was taken
following a joint gathering with mem
bers of Benjamin J. Seifert Post,
American Legion, of this city, in
which the women's organization was
discussed at length A temporary
organization was perfected by the
election Of Mrs. William S. Cock
roft as temporary president and Miss
Irene Smith as temporary secretary.
Charter Applied for.
1t was also voted to make appli-
cation to the national organization
for charter and as soon as this
document arrives, which will be in
about two weeks, another meeting
will be called for the purpose of
enrolling the members on the charter
and electing permanent officers. In
the meantime, an active campaign
will be carried on to secure members
Women, whose husbands, sons or
brothers are members of the American
Legion, as well as gold star widows,
mothers and sisters, being those
women whose husbands, sons or
brothers made the supreme sacri-
flee during the World war, are elig-
ible to membership in the Women's
Auxiliary, and the latter group of
women are especially desired to join.
The object of the Women's Aux
iliary is to render a similar service
to the veterans of the World war as
do the Women's Relief Corps and
Ladies' Circles to the Civil war We
terans. An attempt will be made to
induce every eligible woman in New
Ulm and vicinity to join the ) Aux
iliary.

SIMON KILLS SELF.

Frank Simon, 65 years olds Demo-
cratic candidate for Congress from the
Second Minnesota district at the cleo
tion in November, 1920, was found
dead in the cellar Of his home in
Mapleton, Monday morning Of last
week. He had hanged himself from a
rafter. Dependency, due to i'll health,
was the cause Off his act. Mr.. Simon
was a member Of the Masonic and
Woodmen lodges and had been a resi-
dent of Mapleton for more than 25
years. He was prominent in the
Democratic party circles and twice

A basket social and program, en-
titled Jumbo john was given at the
school house in District No. 8, Milford
township, Saturday evening. The
building was crowded and everybody
enjoyed the double event. The child
ren demonstrated their ability as
amateur actors under the able tutelage
of their teacher, Miss Elsie McNol,
and the delightful program was a de-
cided hit. The baskets netted the tidy
sum of $4,000.

FOUR CARS OF
CORN IS PLAN
BROWN COUNTY DRIVE TO BI
STARTED LATTER PART
OF NEXT MONTH.
TOWNSHIP ORGANIZATION OF
THE FARM BUREAU TO
TAKE UP WORK.

Due to the fact that the Brown
County Farm Bureau is at present
in the midst of it's reorganization
stage, which requires the undivided at
tention of all those interested in this
work, the board Of directors, at their
meeting held in Sleepy Eye, Saturday
evening, decided to postpone the solici-
tation of corn for the starving women
and children of Europe and Asia until
the latter part of April, when date
will be set as Corn Gift Day. in
Brown county.
Four Carloads Desired.
This matter will be Thoroughly taken
up through the township organizations
which are now being formed through.
out the county. In townships where
there will be no organizations of the
Farm Bureau, pledges will be taken
just the same. In view of the fact
that the people Of Brown county have
always shown their generosity in the
past, when called upon to donate
money, food and clothing to the in
habitants of Wor-torn and famished
sections Of Europe and Asia, it is con-
fidently expected that four carloads of
corn will be the contribution Of Brown
county farmers towards alleviating the
suffering across the seas.
Appeal Is Sent Out.
The Minnesota Farm Bureau Fede-
ration has sent out an appeal to the
farmers of the state for donations of
corn sufficient to make two solid train
loads, which are to be shipped to
Europe and Asia. Assured of free
railroad transportation for every car
load Of grain donated to save the lives
OF starving women and children
abroad, the Federation has appealed
to the 45 leading orn-producing coun-
ties of the state to load from 60 to 70
cars for early shipment. The corn
relief movement is part of nation
wide campaign begun by the American
Farm Bureau Federation. The first
shipments of the 3,50O,OOO bushels al
ready pledged is on the way to the sea-
coast. A single county in Illinois has
loaded 16 cars. Nicollet county was
the first in Minnesota to respond and
this week two carloads are being loaded
lat shipping points in that county under
the direction Of County Agent o. O.
Horlamus.
| Help Greatly Needed,
Children are dying by hundreds
and thousands in the famine-stricken
regions says the appeal sent out by
the Minnesota Farm Bureau Fedora
ton. "They aren't your children;
they aren't Minnesota children;
but they are children and they are
dying. Corn means life to them and
to hundreds of thousands Of men and
women doomed to die unless help
comes. The railroad brotherhoods
have donated their time to haul the
corn; the railroads have offered cars
and engines free for use in transpo orting
the corn to the seaboard. Now it is
UP to the farmers to- donate the corn.

BABY BEEF CLUB
HAS IA MEMBERS.
BROWN COUNTY FARMER LADS
SHOW GREAT INTEREST
IN THE CONTEST.
SINGLE PIG, SoW-AND-LITTER
AND ONE AND FIVE ACRE
CONTESTS ALSO.

County Agent Willis Lawson Of
Sleepy Eye sends us the following in
formation, which no doub t will prove
OF interest to the farmer boys and girls
OF Brown county, who have greatly
enjoyed the keen competition ex-
perienced in similar contests in recent
years:
Five Contests Planned:
Now is the time to enroll in club
work in Brown County for the coming
season. The following will be carried
out: Baby Beef, Single Pig and Sow
and-Lltter as livestock contests, and
also the Single Acre and Five-Acre
Corn Contests will be entered the same
as in former years. Liberal prizes will
be offered at the County Fair, as we'll
as at the State Fair and State Junior
Livestock Show.
Club Has ID Members.
Fourteen boys have entered the
Baby Beef Contest and it is not too
late for others to enter, providing they
send in their names Immediately. The
calves are placed in two classes, those
dropped between Jan. 1, 1920, and
Sept. /, 1920, are clased as junior year
lings; those dropped after. Sept. /,
1920, are placed in the calf class. The
calves entered must be either steers or
heifers and must be grades or cross
breeds. Feed records must be kept for
six months.
Three Hog Contests.
For both the Single Pig and Sow
and-Litter Contests, the pigs must
be farrowed on or after March /, 1921.
The pigs in the Single Pig contest may
be pure-breds or grades, while the
SoW-and-Litter contest is limited to
pure-breds. The contest for pure
breds closes Sept. 1, when the best
pigs in both contest are exhibited at
the State Fair after the county winners
have been picked. The best pig in
the grade class is to be shown at the
Junior Livestock Show in November.
Careful and accurate account Of the
care, management and feeding of the
SOW and litter and four-month feeding
record of the single pig must be kept.
Any boy or girl between the ages of
nine and nineteen years is eligible for
these contests. It's up to you to get
back Of this and win some of the rpize
money, free trips, ETC. If interested
at all, write or phone your county

Boys and Girls Week at University
Farm, st. Paul, It's going to- be a
great week for the boys and girls of the
state. Any boy or girl is entitled tlo

the time and money for any boy or

their names to the county agent inn
mediately and he will give full infor-
nation.

Another Warning Sounded.

Today we want to sound another
warning, not only to the German
Americans Of this section, but to the
Austro-Americans as well, for it has
come to our knowledge that certain
unscrupulous Eastern bankers are en-
riching themselves beyond reason from
the sums sent to people in Central
Europe by relatives and friends in the
United States. The sharp practices
of the money lords are all the more
despicable in. view of the fact that
large percentage Of the money being
sent to Germany and Austria by former
residents of those countries, especially
people residing in New Ulm and
vicinity, is destined to permit them to
purchase food to save them from star
vation.

$l6.25 DWINDLE
DOWN TO $50
UNITED STATES MONEY LOSES
NEARLY TWO-THIRDS OF
ORIGINAL VALUE.
MYSTERIOUS DEPRECIATION
OCCURS ENROUTE FROM
HERE TO VIENNA.

A few weeks ago we called the atten-
tion of our readers to representatives
of a so-called securities company OF
Minneapolis, who were at work in this
section of the state, trying to dispose
of German government securities at a
highly inflated mark value and with
out setting specified date for the de-
livery of these bonds. This expose
has served to save some of our good
German-American friends various sums
of money, for it put them on their
guard when the Flour City sharpers
called on them to peddle their German
securities.
New Ulm review., 1921-03-23
Issue Foreign Drafts.


Issue Foreign Drafts.
BY depositing a certain sum of
money in one of the local banks,
person can secure "a foreign draft,
payable in marks, if destined for
Germany, and in kronen (crowns), if
sent to Austria. For $1,000 a draft
for several thousand marks, or crowns,
as the case may be, is issued, and,
naturally, the person purchasing such
draft does so in the belief that it will
be worth just as many American
dollars in either Germany or Austria
as have been paid for it in the local
bank. But that is not the case, as
the following experience will prove.
Worth Only About One-Third.
few days ago, two drafts, which a
New Ulm business man had purchased
at a local bank and sent to Vienna,
Austria, some months ago, were re-
turned to him by the party to whom
they had been sent, together with
letter, stating that the 1900 crowns,
for which the drafts had been issued,
and for which he had paid $16.25, were
worth only $5.7O in United States
money upon arrival at their destina-
ton. Thus it will be seen that the
$16.25 representing the original value
of the 4,000 crowns at the local bank
had dwindled to little more than one
third of the original value.
The firm to whom these drafts were
sent also informed the New Ulmite
that the exchange value of the mark
and the crown, as quoted by the New
York banks, is considerably higher
than the actual value in Germany and
Austria, respectively.
More Than $40 Profit!
Accordingly, the New York bank,
through which the draft passed on it's
way to Vienna, made profit of more
than SO on this minor transa ction.
Of course, it must be remembered, that
the New Ulm banks do not share in
this usury, but, on the contrary, are
victimized by the Eastern money lords
in a similar manner as are individuals.
No wonder the New Y York financial
institutions are able to declare so and
even 100 per cent dividends! Their
unscrupulous methods of charging
greatly excessive exchange rates help
to enrich their stockholders.
Send Currency to Europe.
About the safest way of sending
money to Germany or Austria under
the existing conditions and without
losing two-thirds of it's value enroute,
is to enclose United States currency in
the envelope, together with the ac-
companying letter, and have letter
registered, thus ensuring it's safe ar
rival at its destination. If the post
Office refuses to accept responsibility
for safe delivery, it may be possible to
arrange with the American Railway
Express to have the money sent to
Europe. In either case, chances are
that the entire sum will reach its
destination, whereas, by purchasing a
bank draft, the amount will lose con-
siderable value.

Prices Going Down.

''The prices on some articles have
decreased considerably here. For in
stance, rice can now be purchased for
2l5O marks, as against four, five and
six marks formerly; best quality soap
now costs three, three and half to
four marks, instead 81 from six to eight
marks. On the other hand, fire wood
has increased in price more than
double, and coal is few marks higher
than last year.
