Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1922-06-23

Action and reaction are equal the
world over and always. The wave Of
enthusiasm which swept over the
country a few years ago in favor OF
the county agent movement is now
temporarily at ebb tide, at least in so
far as the esteem in which the now
ment is held by some farmers is con
cerned.
When our bu-ineg3 IS Improbable
we are inclined to attribute our mis-
fortune to the faults or deficiencies Of
agencies upon which we had depend
ed for help. When prices are high
we cannot produce enough to satisfy
our desires. When profits disappear
through decline in values we look
upon overproduction as the chief
cause of our distress. At such times
we listen with sight patience to sug-
gestions to ways of increasing our
output. Since the county agent is
the disciple of better farming and
larger yields through the use Of better
varieties, of saving animals and crops
from the. ravages Of diseases and in
sects, these who believe that restrict
ed output is the way cut of our pres
ent situation feel that the county
agent is an instrument of evil instead
of good These farmers see in the
county agent not only these menacing
features, but also the cause Of add
tional burden to their already heavy
load of taxes.

K. Martin Thompson Is
Candidate for Assembly
Progressive Phelps Citizen Has
Hat In Ring for the Fall
Election

K. Martin Thompson, chairman and
all around live wire man farmer and
business man of that town was call
er at the Review Office while in town
that he would be candidate for the
Assembly on the Republican ticket
at the September primary We be-
lieve he would be a very good man
for the place and for Villas county.
In view of the fact that there will be
another strong attempt to secure a
large part of this county for park and
reforestration purposes in the next
legislature, Villas county needs rep.
resentative there who can and will
oppose the plan in the agricultural
interests of the county. Mr.. Thomp-
son understands what the soil of
Villas county will do wherever it is
improved for farm purposes and VIE
do not think the county could elect
a better man at this particular time.
We did not at the time promise him
any support but we do now hereby
inform him that as far as we can be
of any assistance to him in his cam
paign we shall be glad to do So BY
political courtesy, Iron county
should concede him the nomination
without opposition as it has had the
honor of sending the representative
for the joint district for the past
three terms, H. NJ Mark of Hurley
being the present incumbent.

Gus usages are unreligious people
If people are careless about church
attendance the reason is, that they
have not grown up to church privileg-
es, not that they have grown beyond
it.
Religion is one of the most potent
factors in the influences which makes
nations. A city with its churches wip-
ed out would be poorer, meaner and
truly dismal place. You cannot leave
religion out or leave it to others and
your life be the same. The man or
woman who allows his Sunday, with
it's uplifting opportunity, to be starv-
ed or crowded out of his life, has al
lowed one of the most priceless inher-
itances and opportunities to escape
him. For the object and mission of
Sunday is to infuse more sacredness
into the rest of the week. Sunday
can be a golden staircase by which we
ascend from the region of material in
terest to the 1oftier concerns which
ennoble human life. In church SER
vice where you are really uplifted, you
look at your own life, at the world;
and society from high vantage point,
and take in great draughts of spiritual
life. That person is inevitably deter
iorating and developing a stale soul
who does not pay regular attention
to the cultivation of his normal and
spiritual life Dir. George Gilmour,
Denver.

STORM DID DAMAGE

The severe electrical storm Of last
Thursday put the light plant out of
commission for a few hours, and the
Lutheran church was slightly dam
aged by bolt that struck there. The
nearest approach to anything serious
was shock received by A. Sailer
while in the basement of his resi-
dence attending to his electrical
pump when a charge came in over
the wires that nearly placed him IN,
conscious.

RIG BERRY CROP

Upper Wisconsin is due for one of
the largest blue berry crops ever
known this year and every one is
planning now on getting good sup
ply of the fruit for next winters use
It is three years since the last good
crop, late frosts or dry weather hav-
ing since then caused the crop to be
very light. This year weather con
ditions have been extremely favor
able and within a few weeks the
woods will be crowded with pickers,
not only local but from long distances
away.

Christmas Seals Pay the Bills and
Help Make Montana a Healthier State

building up the resistance and the for
nation of proper health habits in
childhood. Is not the symbol of the
child most fitting?
The Montana tuberculosis associa-
tion has distributed over three million
of the Penny Seals of Good Health,
and, under the direction of Montana's
most public-spirited men and women,
confidently expects to sell them.
In these days of the high cost of liv-
ing one thinks of penny not buying
much, but the Montana tuberculosis
association knows that a penny spent
for Christmas seal goes long ways
for it buys three things-a thought for
good health by the sender, wish for
good health to it's recipient, and a
message of good health conveyed by
the tuberculosis association to one
who sorely needs it. Can a penny do
more?
The Montana tuberculosis associa-
ton is supported solely with funds
raised through the sale. Ninety-five

WOULD SPLIT SHERIDAN AND

Scobey.-That meeting of resi-

welt county to discuss the organiza-
tion of new county was held at Froid
recently, is the information. apparently
from reliable sources, reaching here.
According to this report. it is pro-
posed to take tier of townships off
the south end of Sheridan county and
then divide Roosevelt county with a
boundary line running north and south
between .Culbertson and Poplar.
The sponsors of the movement, it
Is said, are optimistic and point to
the fact that the new county would
have many advantages in the way of
assessable valuations, inasmuch as
the territory embraced is practically
all under cultivation and section of
the main and branch lines of the Great
Northern railway would be included.
The present plan is, according to the
report, to secure the creation of the

Another Of the pleasing affairs of
the season was the dance given un-

propriate to Thanksgiving, arranged
around the walls, with chrysanthe-
NUNS in the lodge colors, purple and
white, placed at regular intervals. The
lighting effect was subdued and mel

RANKIN WILL PROBE
STATE WHEAT PRICES

Great Falls.-Through lack of fed
eral grades governing the price of
wheat which commands a premium
above No. l dark northern spring, the
highest grade established by the fed
eral government, Montana farmers are
at the mercy of the dealer and in i'm
mense number CT cases are not receivl
ing the full value of their grain was
the assertion Of Attorney General
Wellington D. Rankin while in Great
Falls recently en- route to conduct a
hearing on the wheat price situation
at Conrad.
Rankin will conduct the hearing
jointly with John M. Davis of the
state agricultural department. Com
plant against Conrad dealers was
made by group Of wheat growers
who organized under the name of the
Conrad Farmers Progressive club to
place the matter before the attorney
general. Rankin anticipated that as
many as 400 farmers would attend the
hearing and the appearance of the
dealers will be made certain through

WOLF POINT Wins.
COUNTY SEAT TILT.
SUPREME COURT SAYS VOTES IN
DISPUTED DISTRICTS MUST
.. BE COUNTED.

Helena, Nov. 28.-Wolf Point has
won the fight to become the county
seat of Roosevelt county. The state
supreme court Tuesday handed down
a decision issuing writ of mandamus
directing the board Of county commits
sioners of Roosevelt county, sitting as
board of canvassers, to count the
votes cast in precincts 3, % and 81.
in Roosevelt county. The decision of
the state supreme court was rendered
following a hearing held Monday in
which the questions Of law were ar
gued.
The decision is the result of an ac-
tion filed in the supreme court by r. j.
Moore, asking for the writ and alleg-
ing that the board of canvassers had
refused to count the precincts men,
toned though an election was held in
each of the precincts on Novmeber 7.
1t is understood the board of canvas
sers refused to count the returns from
the three precincts on the ground that
the election in each was not held at
the place designated by the board OF
county commissioners.
Poplar would have won the county
seat fight by vote Of 1,796 to 1,7O7
had not the three precincts in question
been counted
BY the decision of the supreme court
ordering the count, Wolf Point wins
the election by vote of 2,OO2 to 1910

ALL READY FOR FIFTEENTH
ANNUAL XMAS SEAL SALE

The seal sale is perhaps the only
annual solicitation of. funds that is
growing stronger each year. Three
thousand dollars was the amount of
the first years sale, while that of last
year amounted to $3,OOO,OOO.
The Christmas seal sale is not a
drive--it is a sale, and the seals have
a commercial as well as humanitarian
value. 1t is sale of health and a
campaign of education.
The Christmas seal sale should ac-
complish two things:
1) The publicity will teach the
public how to better health conditions.
(2) The funds will finance some
definite health activity.
The first essential in a successful
campaign is good leader. The as
sociation believes that the leaders Sc
lected for the campaign are the most
capable and efficient workers in their
respective localities. They in turn
select able committees such as publi-
city, speakers, and for churches to
observe Sunday, Dec. 10, at Tubercu-
lcsis Sunday.

TWO HUNDRED ATTEND
CORNERSTONE LAYING

The first cornerstone laying of
Lutheran church in Valley county took
place Sunday afternoon, November "a,
when the cornerstone of the High
land Evangelican Lutheran church
was laid by Rev. A. Bue of Opheim.
He was assisted by Rev. Akre of Hins-
dale Rev. Rosholt. and the local pas
tor. Rev. Livdahl. The church is CEN
trally located in the Badger and High
land communities, II miles north of
Glasgow. The money with which to
build this church was furnished alto
gether by the two ladies aid societies
in the congregation. The cost of
the church was $500. All the labor
in the building was donated by the
members and friends of the congre-
cation. Close to the church is also
large cemetery, which was dedicated
on Sunday by Rev. Akre.

per cent of the sale proceeds remains
in Montana, the other five per cent
going to the national association, SO
even a part of this reverts to our
state through it's cooperation.
What is done with the money? It
enables the Montana tuberculosis as
sociation to carry on health work in
the following lines: Through public
health nurse demonstrations; through
the modern health crusade; through
clinics, through intensive educational
work; through organization of public
health associations, and through cam
paigns for adequate facilities for the
tubercular of Montana.
Why do we sell seals? Because $40
people died of tuberculosis in Montana
last year, and approximately 5000
people in the state have the disease in
active form. Because tuberculosis men,
aces every community, every home
and every individual.
Yet tuberculosis is PREVENTABLE
and CURABLE.
