NAVAL MILITIA MEETS
BACLEY HERE SATURDAY
Fast Preliminary; Is Assured
BY Second Teams Of High
r. School and Militia

In a game which promises to be
much better than that staged at Bag
ley two weeks ago, the Bagley Amer
lean Legion team will play the Benlid.
| il Naval Militia in a return game a.
the new armory here Saturday eve
ming, March IL. The first meeting
between these two teams resulted in
a Is to 10 victory for Bagley. Both
teams, the sailors especially, were
handicapped somewhat by the small
Bagley floor and this meeting is sure
to result in much better team wo1H
and faster game throughout. ~
The navy boys will start the game
with their strongest lineup and sew
eral new players, who have been with
the local schools, will be added to
the team, thus assuring a possible
victory for Bemidji. @'- ~
The Bagley Legion team is COM
posed of former high school and col
lege players. All put up a fast, clean
game, and no doubt that outfit will
be able to show up to more de-
cided advantage on the Bemidji floor
than it has done on the Bagley gym
nasium. floor. 1t is understood that
the visitors will bring their strongest
lineup and will be looking forward
to another victory over the BenlidJi
squad. The Bemidji sailors hope to
put crimp in their hopes, however,
and will play the game from start to
finish.
Fans are assured of seeing one of
the fastest preliminaries yet staged
here this season, when the second
team of the high sch.ol meets the
second team of the Naval Militia.
Both teams will have their strongest
lineup, This high school team was
defeated a short time ago by Deer
River high schools regular team by
one point. These facts in themselves
show the relative strength of the
team the navy boys will be up against.
This preliminary promises to be in M
terest close second to the Bagley-
Bemidji game.
The preliminary will be called at
1880 sharp, and the main event will
follow. Admission for both games
has been. set at SO cents for adults
and rs cents for children, two fast
games for the price of one regular
game. The navy boys are looking for
ward to hearty support on the part OF
Bemidji fans, since this game with
Bagley "means a lot to their young
lives" and considerable expense Is IN
lvolved. Ihis will be the last appear
ance of the Naval Militia teams this
season and it is expected that large
attendance will witness these two
games.

SAVES HIGHWAY MONEY
FOR IMPORTANT NEEDS
.Babcock Points Out That Snow
Removal Would Take + und.
Needed for Upkeep

Snow removal from Minnesota
is being left to local scomnlu-
mites because maintenance funds are
limited and the expense of winter road
clearing would cripple summer work
which affords greater benefits to the
highway users. sa %E III. ~, bis
The statement was made this week
by Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, and emphasizes
that highway policies must serve the
greatest good to the largest number
get the best results for the general
public The commissioners states
li1ent follows: 5.,s:-,.;..,..,..s = <}y.
.sThe highway department is ser
iously concerned with the problem OF
keeping the trunk routes open IN
winter and would have moved weeks
ago had any practica able, feasible plan
been found. But because of the
heavy expense, the stronger claims
for other kinds Of highway work, the
limits on funds-briefiy, in consider
alton Of the greatest good for the
great majority, the state cannot JUS
| tify. q snow removal campaign at this
early stage Of highway development.
Maintenance funds would be SO re-
duced that the trunk routes would be
half kept next summer when hundreds
'of tourists and ten times as many Mill
, uesota people will use them. E.
Interested communities must con-
1ue to handle the work as in past
ears. They may expect big help
from the highway transportation came
panies. The state department Will
cooperate by permitting the use Of
suitable, equipment in the distri. IS
and in other. ways. It already IS
adopting snow-drift prevention feat
ures III new construction plans. INV
ut should be remembered that
rural districts are supplied bettei
winter highway: facilities now than
ever before, and also that the bulk
of trunk highway funds come from
motor vehicle owners who use the
trunk routes ten times more in sum-
mer than in winter. We are trying to
give maximum service over a maxi
mum period of every year but present
|conditions will not warrant big snow
removal operations" T: It
Financial conditions which bar
snow removal were outlined in dc
tail BY John H. Mullen, deputy CONT
missioner and chief highWgX enein-
Ieer. He said that because, of ngisia-
tive delays, the highway maintenance
fund fixed by law at so, 500 900 was
VIRTUALLY intact on June / last year.
Now spring breakup and other pre-
paratory and early operations will
take about 100000. leaving a bal
anee Of onlys$1 100000 on June l, he
said, and to use more than $500, 600
fol. snow removal would cut the main
tenance money for the season when it
| is most needed to about half that
available last year. For that rea-
son, he added the department adopt
ed the plan to conserve the money to
serve. the greatest needs. s~ST.., a 4.

STANDARD BRED POULTRY
WEEK MARCH 10 TO IS

Minnesota's governor is the first
in the Union to proclaim a special
week to be devoted to the welfare o.
the poultry and egg production i'll
terests Of the state. This seems alto
gether fitting in view Of the fact thai
the annual production Of poultry and
eggs in Minnesota averages nearly
s1I, o0O, 900. By proclaiming Stand
ard Bred Poultry Week, March 10 e
1S, the states executive has given
material impetus to the effort to i'm.
prove Minnesota focks and increase
their production. Prospects seem
bright for egg producers. Stocks
of eggs in cold storage are much less
today than they were year ago. Gov
ernment figures also show that, the
large eastern centers are consuming
vastly more eggs than ever before.

Washington, Dec. 12.-During the

War Finance Corporation made ten
new loans a~ggregating only s141 900
for agricultural and livestock pur-
poses. During the same period they
received in payment of loans pre-
viously made for agricultural and
livestock purposes ss,0sO,000. Since
the first of the year the War Finance
Corporation has been repaid over
sl59, 900 900 on loans previously ad-
vsnced. According to advices from
the Northwest the farmers Of Mime
sofa, North Dakota and South Da-
kota have repaid a total of 0,000,-
900 out of $4,000, 900 loaned by the
War Finance Corporation in those
three states. lnasmuch as the first
loans were made in October, 1921,
this clearly shows the agricultural
interests are getting in better shape.
In addition to the loans which have
been completely liquidated, many
others have been partially paid.
