prompt to answer the cry of any
leader concerned with a continuance
of q dry United States, Volstead's
desperate fight for another two years
residence in official Washington can
not but come as surprise to those
outside the district. The situation,
however, is not any more unique or
strange than many that are now his
tory Volstead is rounding out twenty
years Of residence at Washington and
naturally he has accumulated some
enemies in that time. Briefly it is
largely case of the pitcher going to
the well once too often. While the
district has its wet sympathizers and
they will undoubtedly be found in the
opposition camp, they are a decided
minority as far as a total vote in the
district is concerned. There are 9th
er issues and among them is the Esch-
Cummins railroad act for which Vol
stead voted and which vote he is now
vigorously defending. This, the most
lied about act on the federal statutes,
is not in the best Of repute with the
farmers and Volstead is suffering in
consequence. It is said that outside
wet interests are giving every en-
Yc0uragement to the Kvale candidacy,
but if they are they are very much
under cover. Those who have set out
to return Volstead to congress say
they will win despite the opposition.

balsam in northern Minnesota is
threatened with destruction. according
to DR.. S. A. Graham, an entomologist
of the university department Of agri-
culture. An insect commonly known
as the spruce budworm, but which
might more appropriately be called
the balsam budworm, is killing the
balsam trees in the northern woods.
The tremendous losses caused by the
budworm in eastern Canada and
Maine few years ago are now being
repeated in Minnesota, says DR.. S. A.
Graham.
As the balsam is second only to
spruce as source Of wood pulp for
the manufacture Of paper, its de-
struction on such a large scale COM
plicates situation that has for years
been uppermost in public mind. Fur
thermore, the havoc wrought by the
insect has increased tremendously the
fire hazard in vast areas. The trunks
Of the balsam either cumber the
ground or stand stark in their desol-
alton, affording tinder-ike material

Seasons Prospects for Potato

Seasons Prospects for Potato
Prices-C Conditions now existing lndl-
cate that the price Of potatoes, I. o. b.
Minneapolis and st. Paul, will average
about $1.46 per hundred weight for
present season. This forecast is made
by the Division Of Agricultural Eco
Monies of the University OF MINES
ta. Continuing, the forecast says:
"The average price for October IS
normally 1876 per cent of that for the
season (September to May, which
indicates $1.29 per hundredweight as
a fair average price for the month OF
October for potatoes Of average qua
lily. The actual price on October ~
was about rs cents per hundredweight
"This forecast is based on funda-
mental demand and supply conditions
as they appear at present. Present
information may turn out to be mis-
leading. Changes in apparent
conditions sometimes result in an act
ual price 80 per cent below the fore
cast or 80 per cent above.
1.-THE discrepancy between our fore
cast and the actual price appears to be
due to three factors: ~ everybody
who has stored potatoes for the last
two years, whether dealer or farmer,
has lost heavily--this year every one
is trying to play safe; -(2) the govern
ment acreage estimate is 1913 per
cent over that of last year we believe
this is serious overestimate and that
the increase has been only about the
normal amount for the entire United
States; (3) there has been so much
talk of the immense crop OF potatoes
this year that many farmers and deal
ers are unduly alarmed.
1.-THE foregoing forecast Of average
price for the season is based upon a
knowledge of the effect of the import
ant factors influencing the price of
potatoes in Minneapolis and st. Paul,
obtained from a study of records COW
ering twenty years. The average price
for the season is determined by Q
small number of important demand
and-supply conditions. If the actual
price is lower during part Of the sea-
son than is justified by these condi-
tions, it is certain to be correspond

One Of the fundamentals of Ameri-
can citizenship is the right of the bal
lot. It's unrestricted exercise is the
perogative Of every man and woman
enjoying legal residence in the Unit
ed States and it's proper use is gen..
orally spoken of as a most sacred OBJ
legation. How lightly this obligation
rests on some, however, is found in
the statement of those who know that
in the three cities of Minneapolis,
St. Paul and Duluth nearly 100000
voters face practical disfranchise-
ment because of indifference to the
enrolment requirements. Because of
this wholesale failure to register
sound government is endangered and
those interested in it's continuance are
much concerned as a result. One of
the voting requirements in cities of
the first class is that the voter be
registered and the plain truth is that
only fraction of those entitled to
the ballot are properly and legally
listed. There is only one registration
day left, October 28th, and into it
must be crowded the herculean task
of listing those who have carelessly
overlooked the registration days
that have gone. In Minneapolis alone
75, 900 voters are listed by the author
tiles as not registered and of this
number nearly 10000 are tax payers.
To many this apparent indifference
may seem appalling and it is appal-
ling, but it is partially explained by
an archaic system of registration
laws, compliance with which is al
most task. In the cities there are
elections upon elections and each calls
for some form of registration on the
part of the voter. Two years ago in
Minneapolis there was last minute
drive in the case Of voters who were
not registered and nearly 10000 were
listed. At the present time a similar
drive is on not only in Minneapolis,
but in st. Paul and Duluth and it is
hoped to thus minimize of the dan
ger. At the last general election
nearly 100000 votes were cast and
counted, but the number is expected
to fall considerably short Of that fig
ure this time. This possible shortage
is the only danger threatening COM
plete Republican success, and every
effort is being made by those in con-
troll to prevent general falling off
in the vote.

Full with the knowledge that hoped
for results are by no means cinch,
hackers and friends of Congressman
A.. j. Volstead of the It'll district
started on an intensive drive this
week that will keep them busy right
up to and including election day. In
truth the High Priest of the dry clans
is sorely in need of all the help pos
sible and those entrusted with the
task of keeping the 7th district reg
ular are preparing for the fight OF
their political lives. It is figured
that heavy womens' vote and back
to back stand by his dry friends will
do the trick. In district bone dry,
