Paving at Waukon for S2.42

No deGsio has been reached by the
council as to the paving contract
which was let to bidders on Thurs
dav last. The delay is occasioned by
a difference of opinion among the
council members as to what type OF
paving to adopt. They are divided
as to the durable qualities of Nbro-
lithic and asphalt concrete, but they
hope to arrive at a unanimous decl-
sion and let the entire contract this
week for the paving of nearly thirty
blocks in various parts of the city.
Ten bids were received for the paw
ing and eight more for the construc-
ton of the large concrete reservoir
for the water works plant at the fail
grounds. This was let to a DeE
Moines firm for $4,000 and will bt
built this season on the tract souti
of the pumping plant.
The bids received for paving arr
much lower than the prices of lat
wears and are considered very rea
sonabIe. The vibrolithic type whicl
has a mixture of granite particles i
Ithe concrete for a top surface wa
offered for $2.42 per square yart
This kind has been adopted by Wes
Union and Decorah recently at price
higher than this. The bid for tn
asphalt concrete was $3.50 per yarC
The entire paving job will amour
to S15O,OOO, more or less, dependin
: upon the kind selected.-Wauko

Skunk at the Circus

A duck and a frog and skunk, so
they say,
Started for town to a circus one day;
The frog and the duck paid the price
and went in,
But the skunk he went home with
out seeing a thing.
The frog had a greenback and so
was in luck
The Snowman accepted a bill from
the duck;
But for poor Mr.. Skunk no ticket
he had,
For he'd only one scent and that
one was bad.-Sovereign Visitor.

LIVESTOCK THE STABILIZER OF
AGRICULTURE, SAYS WALLACE

No great meat eating nation ever
suffered famine from crop failure. Our
livestock furnishes the greatest stor-
age plant for our grains and grasses.
Our hog crop represents the greatest
national plant for human consumption
"a great national condensing factory
which condenses more than one-third
of u corn crop, in addition to a
large amount of our grasses, into a
highly palatable concentrated food
product-a great national storage res
ervoir in which huge quantities of
grains and grasses are stored up for
future use, food reserves, the impor-
lance of which few people realize. And
in addition u hog crop serves as a
shock absorber for the variation in
production of our corn crop, year by
year, thus ironing out the inequalities
Of corr prices. During the past year
and a half our hogs paid for the corn
they ate, about twice the price per
bushel which the corn could be sold
for on the market.-Henry Wallace,
Secretary of Agriculture.

MONTANA WHEAT BEING
SHIPPED TO The COAST
Astoria, Ore, Mills Grind Hard Wheat
Flour of Montana Grain; First
Produced on Pacific Coast.

Astoria, Ore, Nov. 9.-(SpeciaD.-
While the effect of the a shortage
is serving to check the flow of grain
to the Astoria elevators, the movement
from Montana continues to come in
steadily, if in reduced quantities. The
ship to Astoria, however, still average
several carloads daily.
The majority of the cars available
at present are flats and gondolas, with
the result that most of the grain from
other sections than Montana is COM
ing sacked.
The preferential freight rate on
grain from Montana to the ports of
the Pacific northwest for export al
ready has had a marked effect in
swelling the amount of wheat being
handled at the Astoria municipal ter
minals, and the port authorities pre-
dict the grain shipping season as a
whole will show an immense increase.
The big 1850, 000-bushel bulk eleva-
tor here, the largest structure of its
kind on the Pacific coast, is in full
operation, while the 4,%000-barrell flour
mill run in conjunction with it is pro-

ROOSEVELT COUNTY FARMER
KEEPS ACCURATE RECORDS

Poplar.-One farmer who ranks
high in the proper keeping of farm
records and accounts resides in Roose-
welt county. His name is William Nc
Bride and he resides in the Pioneer
community, north of Culbertson.
Mr.. Mcbride received second honors
in a state competition in which a large
number of farmers record and &C.
count books were inspected, for having
the most complete and well kept rec.
ord Of his farm operations.
A glance at Mr.. McBride's farm
record indicates that he at all times
knows the exact status of each indi-
vidual project thereon.
He declares that such knowledge is
of great value in conducting farming
operations, especially in view of pres
ent marketing conditions.

MONTANA SPUD CROP
LARGEST ON RECORD

Montana's potato crop this season
is in the predicament of the girl who
was call dressed up and no place to
60"
The crop this year, if it is all har-
vested, is estimated at 1904, 900 bu-
shells, which is approximately two mil
lion bushels larger than the record
crop of 1921. The quality, too, is
above the average.
Notwithstanding that the crop is
larger and better and that wholesale
prices are about two-fifths of the
prices that prevailed last year at this
time, the movement of the crop to
market has been exceedingly slow.
Consumers have not been buying in
usual quantities this fall.
The low price and the slow move
ment. of the crop has been particularly
hard upon Montana growers. So far
this year they have been shut out of
the eastern markets and the capital
tied up in the cost Of growing the
crop will keep the growers out of the
market for the COMMON necessaries
until such time as a portion of this
capital is released.
To help make business better in
Montana and to help alleviate the fl
nancial distress of the growers Mon
tana consumers are urged to lay in
their years supply of potatoes now
Potatoes are always cheap at digging
time, before the crop has been stored
for the season, and therefore the lay
ing in of a years supply now will not
entail any additional cost upon the
consumer while it will help the grower
nightly. Two sacks per person is
the average yearly consumption in this
country.
In the opinion of marketing experts
this action will insure reasonably
priced potatoes next year, by remov.
ing the surplus. which will tend tc
equalize prices next spring.
An ~equalized price in the spring
will encourage growers to plant a nor.
NAL acreage of tubers. A disastrous.
ly low price next spring will discour.
age growers from setting out a nor
NAL acreage and will result in a small
potato crop and consequent higl
prices.

kLANSMEN ADMIT
 ATTACKING DOCTOR
Arrested in Chicago, Claim They
 Tried to AVenge Girl

Chicago, June 1e.-Captured while l speeding at the rate of sixty eight miles an hour early yesterday, three men were taken to the Chicago De- tective Bureau, where one of them told remarkable tale in explanation of the presence of two revolvers and cat-o'- tails in their automobile.
 The man who told the story is Will 1 liam W. Newman, a member of the Ku klux Klan. His companions gave the names of A. Umbach and Frank H. Pascolini, all of Chicago
 Newman said he and the others had been to Morris, Ill.,, to administer a flashing to a doctor whom he charged with mistreating girl, and were returning to Chicago.
 According to Newmans story, the three men were acting on complaint in letter from man named Philip Kohl, who runs a store at Morris, that a 19-year- -old girl was working in his store who had been mistreated ! by Dr. William A. Muttera.
 They declared their visit to Morris was the last of four recent night trips there, during each of which they failed in attempts to attack Dr. Mutt tera, chiropractor.
 The physician in Morris denied the charges declaring their attacks had nothing to do with his treatment of young women, but were an attempt to drive him out of business.
 "Abou. six weeks ago I began re- ceiving letters signed 'Ku klux Kan, ordering me to quit my chiropractic and leave Morris, under threats of being horsewhipped or otherwise mis- treated if I failed to comply" said pr. Muttera. T notified the local au- thorities and they made investiga- tions but failed to disclose the iden- tity of the letter writer.
 Late last night, as I was leaving a dance I was trailed by an automo- bile containing three men. Just as reached my home the automobile drew up to the curb and the three leaped out. They attempted to drag me into the car. but I fought them off and got safely into the house.
 Their stories concerning my mis- treatment of girls are false They are the paid agents Of some one who is trying to put me out of business"
 Pascolina and Unbach asserted i that Newman was an official of the ku Klux Klan, and the police, who searched his home, found an official receipt apparently showing Newman to be a member of the klan,
 The men admitted they went to Morris to fog the doctor because he abused young girl, but they could not give the name of the girl.

 Meanwhile the war between the press correspondents and Dutch of fcialdom over the right of the former to enter the peace palace where the conference sits is affording great amusement to the visitors here as well as a good laugh to many phlegmatic Hollanders, who like the people of other lands, like to see bureaucracy beaten occasionally. The newspaper men won the first engag ge- ment, but another battle seemed like ly today.
