SEVERAL ALDERMEN WILL SEEK
REELECTION

Developments in the local political
arena have been rather slow and very
little interest is being manifested in
the coming city election, although here
and there it is limited that there will
be opposition for some offices. The
election takes place on Tuesday, March
II, the same day as the county dele
gate election.
Few voters in Little Falls perhaps
realize that at the coming city election,
they will be called upon to ballot on
all city Offices. This was brought
about through the new charter which
fixes the terms Of all elective city Of
fcials at two years except the munich
pal judge, whose term is fixed by law
at four years and that term expires
this year. Officials to be elected are
mayor, city assessor, city treasurer, mu-
nicipal judge, two justices Of the peace,
one constable, one alderman-at-large
and two aldermen from each Of the
four wards. To date, the only present
incumbents to announce their candi-
dacN for reelection are four aldermen,
Brown and Raymond from the Second
ward and N. j. and Geo. II. Peterson
from the Third ward.

Towns Natural ADVANTAGES.

The little river Arrow-no bigger
than gOod-sized brook-runs past the
outskirts of the town of Redditch, Eng.
land, on it's way to join Shakespeare's
Avon near Bidford, a few miles above
Standardization. Along the bed Of
the Arrow you can find smooth peb-
bles Of a peculiarly hard crystalline
nature; they are known locally as
emery Stones" and were invaluable
for polishing needles not only when
simple handprocesses were in vogue,
but also for considerable time later.
The makers gave few pence to chill
dren for picking a dozen or two out
of the shadows of the brook. Thus
Redditch could polish its needles more
cheaply than those towns which had
to pay carriage for emery stones, and
upon this tiny detail hinges the de-
velopnent of an important British In
dustry. Christian Science Monitor.

"The Well Of Montezuma,"

Among the many natural cnriosities
Of Arizona, one that is not often vis-
tied by tourists, is the singular bowl
shaped depression in Yavapai county.
called "The Well of Montezuma!~ It
is nearly circular, and between 500
and 600 feet in diameter at the brim.
It lies in the midst of q nearly-}evel
area. The sides are vertical 10 q
depth of 80 or 40 feet. Below that
they merge into sloping shape, which
extends down to a circular pool Of
water, alleged by popular tradition,
as are so many other not very deep
areas of water, to be bottOmless.
This remarkable formation has usu.
ally been described as 'pit crater
Of volcanic origin, the result of tho
falling of the roof of a cavern. formed
in the limestone strata by running
water. The water Of the pool, it Is
said, flows out through a ,subterra.
mean channel into the valley Of Bea-
yer creek.

WASHBURN SUGGESTS DRIVE ON
CPARROWS

Prof. F. L. Washburn Of the division
of entomology and economic zoology,
says that English sparrows have ap-
parently never been as abundant on
the campus and as troublesome AS this
winter.
1t is thought that last years mild
winter had much to do with the album
dance of the birds this season. They
not only consume and defile grain and
other feed, but are q menace IN that
they may carry disease from the veter-
mary yards to non-infected animals.
Poisoning seems to be the best
measure to use against them, although
in recent number Of a poultry Journal
a homemade trap is described which
caught several hundred day. Tn
fortunately this special trap has TO be
sprung from some nearby building and
therefore requires in attendant to be
on the lookout for sparrows entering.

SEEDS RECOMMENDED FOR 1922
PLANTING

No farmer should grow fax without
attempting to obtain goodly supply
Of wilt resistant seed. Early planting
and use of resistant seed will generally
insure production, say farm crops men
at University Farm.
Central and substation investigators
of the state university recommend that
fax growers use seed Of North Dakota
wilt resistant varieties or of new wilt
resistant Minnesota selections. More
fax ought to be grown in this country,
and a good way to bring this about is
to plant only the hest seed.
Farm crop investigators of the uni
versity recommend Minnesota No. 2
rye for general planting in the state,
and Rosen rye for planting in southern
Minnesota. Varieties OF barley recon-
mended are: Manchuria, (Minn.. No.
184) and -Minsturdi, (Minn. No. 439),
both six-rowed and Svansota, (Minn.-
No. 400. two-rowed.

If President-Elect Should Die.

If the successful candidate for Presi-
dent or vice-president should die be-
fore the second Monday in January
after an election, the electors would
be empowered, under the Law. to vote
according to their judgment. This con-
/ tingency has never arisen. No Presi-
dent-elect has ever died. If a Presi-
dent-elect should die between the
second Monday In January and in
auguration day the electoral college
would not be recon vened, but the
house Of representatives would have
to bear the responsibility.

Farm Block Leader Asks Bureaus Aid

Farm Block Leader Asks Bureau s Aid
st. Paul, Feb. 1.-The leader of the
famous agricultural block in the United
States senate has called On the Mime
sofa Farm Bureau federation for help
in the coming legislative battle to pass
the Capper-V olstcad cooperative mar
keting bill.
At the request of Senator William S..
Kenyon, the state farm bureau has pre-
pared brief to be used in congress
when debate on the bill begins. The
brief shows the progress made by Min
nesota farmers in building up co-opera'
tive marketing organizations, and the
practical results obtained by these or
carnations during the last year.
The review of Minnesota IS exper-
fence in cooperative marketing is ex-
pected to play an important part in
the fight for passage Of the Capper-
Volstead bill. This proposed act, al
ready passed BY the house Of represent
TIA tives, guarantees to the farmers of the
United States virtually, the same rights
Of collective bargaining that already
have been guaranteed by state law in
Minnesota. It would do nothing more
than give farmers cooperative institu-
tons, doing interstate business, the
same rights now enjoyed by private cor
porations, according to farm bureau
officers. It would assure just and open
competition between cooperative sell
ing agencies and private corporations,
they assert, and a fair test of the CO.
operative system.

DR. LAUNC HED TO
STOP FORECLOSURES.
FARMERS FACE { WHOLESALE
LOSS OF LAND IF CREDITORS
INSIST ON PAYMENT
vi st. Paul, Feb. 2:-f'Don't fore

" st. Paul, Feb. .2:-"Don't fore
close.'' : 80 d ..,...
That was the warning issued today
by the Minnesota Farm Bureau fedora
ton, in a statement which declared
that public welfare as well as the in
terests of the individual creditor make
farm mortgage foreclosures cat least
unwise and at most disastrous.
In hundreds of cases, farmers will
be unable to meet interest payments,
due On their farm mortgages i'll March,
the federation said, in spite of the fact
that the loans themselves are absolute
ly sound. In a large number Of farm
mortgages, there is clause which
makes the whole sum of the mortgage
fall due when the farmer misses an in.
terest payment.
"|The individual creditor may feel
that it III light and even necessary for
him to foreclose On the mortgage he
holds,' the federation said. ''But the
interest of the whole public, and his
own business interest as we'll. demands
that he stop to consider the effect on
the economic situation if every creditor
took advantage of present conditions
to close out every farmer who fails to
meet his interest payments or pay
mentsl on contract for deed.
A policy Of wholesale foreclosure
would mean a tremendous setback to
Minnesota agriculture. It would take
away from scores of young, progressive
farmers the land on which they are be-
ginning to make homes and develop up
to-datc farms. It would destroy what
confidence remains, and would delay
still longer our recovery from present
conditious.''
In some counties, it has been suggest
ed that a special session Of the legis-
laturc should be called to strike out
the mortgage provision making the
whole loan fall due when an interest
payment is missed and also to lengthen
the redemption period to two years.
"Eighty per cent of the farms in our
county are mortgagcd,' says one letter
received by the state farm bureau.
9 Public opinion must be aroused to
the situation. It is the only way to
prevent intense mental suffering on the
part Of thousands Of responsible farm
ers who face foreclosure, and who will
have to labor for a year not knowing
whether they will lose their homes.''
resolution passed by the third an
nual convention Of the Minnesota Farm
Bureau federation deplores "thc dis
position on the part Of a great many
who arc in the farm loan business, to
take advantage of the financial strin-
gency by unduly raising their interest,"
rates, and by asking excessively high
commissions In a spirit Of co-opera-
ton, it says, where there is no question
about the adequacy Of the security,
eve respectfully submit plea for the
greatest degree Of leniency in the mat.
ter Of maturing loans and delinquent
interest, SO long as the safety Of the
loan is not in jcopardy.'
