Good Day for Merchants.
(By a staff Correspondent

Last Saturday was the best day for
business that Sharon merchants have
had in some time, according to num-
Der of them who were interviewed to-
day. There was much more money
in circulation than has been the usual
rule for several months past and
things generally were on the hum. A
good deal of cotton was sold at 20
cents and above.

1t is not necessary that one should
have a registration certificate in order
to vote in the primary, nor to have n

your name shall appear on 81 Demo-

fusion about this matter, and I hope
that those who have the matter in
control will in some manner inform
the people thoroughly as to their
rights along this line.

Sale a Success.
Members of the Rock Hill Ner-
chants association are fairly we'll
pleased with the results obtained from
the big sale put on by members of the
association last Wednesday. They
were somewhat disappointed however,
because of the fact that the number of
country people in town to take advan-
tage of the bargains offered was not as
large as had been expected. Their abb
sence, however, is explaind by the fact
that every available hand is needed in
the fields just at this time. In all
probability such sales will be held
monthly in the future.

FEAR DECREASE In
FEDERAL ROAD AID
Minnesota Officials Concerned Over
Possibility of Entire Cut in
Funds for This Year

Uncle Sam may contribute only
100000 this year, against $780,
900 each previous year and expected
again, toward the Babcock plan to
build better roads around Norris and
in other sections of Minnesota. That
is the report from Charles M. Bah
cock, state highway commissioner,
and J. H. Miller, assistant commits
sioner and chief highway engineer,
who are now returning from Wash
ington.
Congress late last fall voted emer-'
gency highway aid of which Mime
sofa received $1,420,OOO for the win
ter work program to relieve unem-
ployment The state officials report
now that unless action is taken this
month, that sum representing only
half of the federal aid granted in
previous years, probably will be the
full allowance for the present gov
ernment year and the program will
be slowed up to that extent. The
highway. department nevertheless. is
pushing plans to go on with road
betterments as rapidly as funds be-
come available. The auto tax en-
forcement is bringing additional
money, it is said, although the total
collections will not Offset the possible
federal aid reduction.
Commissioners Babcock and Mullen
travelled east by automobile to in
spect highway building in several
states. They found that maintenance
patrolmen are being employed in
other states to an extent that Min
nesota must fight to retain it's ad
vanced position. Illinois paving is
standing up we'll, they reported, but
is. mainly 16 feet wide, against the
E1S-foot Minnesota standard, and
without the widened super-elevated
curves or improved drainage adopted
in this state. The Minnesota officials
expect to return to st. Paul late next
week.

CLASH WITH RAILROADS
Farm Bureau Federation Resists
Attempt to Raise Rates

The American Farm Bureau fed
Grafton has protested to the Inter
state Commerce commission against
re-opening the hay and grain rate
case, in which the commission
ordered rate reductions averaging 10
per cent. The reductions took
effect in January. They established
rates on corn and coarse grain 10
per cent lower than the new rates
on wheat. Now the railroads have
asked the commission to abolish this
differential between wheat and coarse
grain in the territory west of the
Mississippi river and east of Ell Paso
and Denver. ,.' l~%S
The coarse grain differential in
wolves approximately $6,O00,000 and
it is this amount that the American
Farm Bureau Federation is trying to
save the shippers of hay and grain.
1t is the position of the American
Farm Bureau Federation that rates
on coarse grain were generally lower
than on wheat throughout this ter
ritory prior to federal control and
that the commissions decision re-
stored the old relationship.
An organized fight will be made
against any increase in freight rates,
on coarse grain, according to officials
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton. ]. F. Reed, president of the
federation, has taken steps to line
I'D the state Farm Bureaus in the
corn producing territory to oppose
the abolition of the rate differential.
He is working with G. w. Hunt;
president of the Iowa Farm Bureatie
Federation, and head of the Midwest
Farm Burean conference. to 3prepare
evidence to resist the increase

MORRIS CREW NVADES
CHOKIO FOR 1O-1 WIN
Locals Show Marked Improvement
And Win Handily-Tackle
Benson Here Sunday

Playing a much improved brand OF
the national pastime the Morris base
ball team captured the long end Of
10 to 1 score at Chokio last Sunday
from the aggregation of that place.
The locals staged strong comeback
from the nightmare of the week be-
fore and played real baseball both in
the field and with the timber. 1t
was the second game Of the season
between the two teams and leaves
each with a mark in the win column
over the other.
Buttell was on the mound for Nor
ris and hurled a clever game of ball.
He had the situation we'll in hand
and but for an error would have had
a shutout to his credit. With but a
single exception he was accorded air
tight support by his team mates. But
two errors were chalked up against
the county seat athletes and at bat
they showed signs of having found
their batting eyes.
The Brophy brothers of Chokio did
the heavy work for the entertainers
and were somewhat wild as we'll as
unable to halt the heavy artillery of
the locals. Jack Brophy started the
fray but was in no way as effective
as several weeks ago when he held
Morris to 10 hits and two runs His
brother relieved him and Jared a
little better at the hands of the local
swatters. Chokio secured it's only
run in the first inning when Bebee
succeeded in making the circuit.
Next Sunday Morris will clash with
Benson on the home pasture and a
good game, of ball is looked for by
followers of the team. Benson has
but recently gotten into the field,
according to the dope but will pre-
sent strong aggregation of ball
players at the fair grounds next Sun
day. With the locals playing the
brand of ball they produced last Sun
day and in the game with Herman
they should be strong contenders for
the big end of the score Sunday
afternoon.

95 CENTS OUT OF $1.OO
GOES ON HIGHWAYS
Official Figures Show About S Cents
Of Minnesota's Trunk Highway
Dollar is Spent for Overhead

Minnesota highway department
overhead expenses are taking only
slightly over five per cent of the
trunk highway funds, compared to
the per cent average in other
states.
General administration, surveying,
engineering, superintendence--every-
thing from rent of the new head
quarters building in st. Paul to the
wages of the survey party cooks
covered by the figure which further
establishes the economy with which
the department is managed. Admin
istration costs, which include the
salaries of executives and headquar-
ters and many field employees, rental
and other general Office expenses,
are more than covered by the annual
fund of $15O,OOO, less than IL
per cent of the business volume, En-
gineering and superintendent &C
counts for the big part of the remain
ing 4 per cent.
The figures from the official
records are given this week in bull
letin from the state highway depart
ment in answer to inquiries follow
ing revival of unfounded reports that
comparatively little road money was
going on the roads. They show that
nearly 95 cents out of every trunk
highway dollar goes into road bet
terments and the rest for engineering
and other necessary items.
J. T. Ellison, assistant highway
commissioner, said that the Mime
sofa showing is among the most
favorable in comparison with those
of other states. While the Mime
sofa overhead aggregates little more
than S per cent, he said, that on
maintenance is but 1-2 per cent and
for new construction is about 6 per
cent, or less than the general average
for other states. All expenses except
amounts paid to contractors are in
cluded in construction overhead, he
explained, while the maintenance
item embraces everything except the
wages of the patrolmen and other ex-
'penses going directly into road bet
terments.

WOMEN'S WEEK OPENS .:.
AT AG SCHOOL MONDAY
Ninth Annual Short Course Will
Give Mothers an Ideal And
Pleasant Vacation

The ninth annual Women's Week
of Agriculture Monday, June 18th.
A great deal of interest is being man
ifested in the short course this year
and from present indications it is GER
tain that at least one hundred wO-
men will attend this short course.
Miss Mabel Macomber, who is in
charge of Women's Week, has visited
fifteen different community groups
in various parts Of western Mime
sofa during the past few weeks.
Everywhere she has had an opportun-
ity to present the plans for the short
course much interest has been
manifested.
The short course is arranged solely
for the women in the home who do
not have the many opportunities to
attend the short courses and cOnven-
tions that call the men together on
different occasions. The purpose of
the week is to give the mother in
the home the vacation among the
most ideal surroundings and to give
her the opportunity to hear able and
practical speakers discuss the prob
lens of the home and other important
questions of real interest to farm wo-
men. The arrangement of the pro-
gram calls for happy combination
of education, entertainment and re-
creation. The lectures and demon
strations are of such a nature that
they will be most interesting and
practical.
The program will begin Monday
noon, June 18th, and the short course
will close Thursday afternoon, June
18th. The faculty will include Miss
Edla V. Anderson of University
Farm, who will speak concerning
nutrition problems; Miss Hazel
lockwood of the West Central School
faculty, who will discuss home man
agement questions and the family
budget; and Miss Huldah Johnson,
also of the West Central School, who
will give practical talks and demon
strations in home nursing and care
of the sick. During the afternoons
special topics of community interest
will be discussed by capable speak
ers. Each afternoon there will also
be a social hour and an hour devoted
to visiting the shops and stores in
the city of Morris. The evenings
will be taken up with special enter
tainment programs.
