In a booklet just published en-
titled Safeguarding the Farm
Against Fire" the National
Board of Fire Underwriters says:
''The farmer, above all others,
needs to give special attention to
the reduction of fire hazards and
the adoption of protective
methods. This is true tor several
reasons. In the irst place, his
house, barn and outbuildings us
usllv are constructed of com
bustible materials being more
or less isolated. they are Pc
euliarly subject TO lightning
stroke /; kerosene and gasoline
are likely to be stored about the
premises and used for light and
power; the farmer Grams his
barn with hay. straw and feed,
all of which are subject to spon-
aneous combustion and last,
but by no means least, he is
nearly always beyond the reach
{ organized fire protection.
Fire precautions ought to be
an integral part of the Original
plan of farmstead. Its various
buildings should be so separated
that if fire occurs in one, the
rest will not inevita bly, be DOOM
ed. In common with dwelling.
every where, there are several in
terror features OF rural home con
struction which, although high
er in FIRST cost than ordinary
work, carry with them increased
safety to life and property
Among these are the employ
ment of fire-resistant roofing
material j; the provision of tw'
stairways in different parts o
the house the enclosure o
= s.airways, particularly a rear on,
that enters the kitchen, and tn,
installation of fire-stopping be
tween floors. All these items
with the exception of the fire
stopping, are features that Cal
be introduced even in structure

N-CENT. TARIFF ON
BUTTER is PROPOSED
Vital to Minnesota Dairyman,
Says John Brandt, Cream
cries President.

A movement to obtain an
emergency tariff of 20 cents a
pound on imported butter with
corresponding increases on other
dairy products has been started
by John Brandt of Litchfeld,
president of the Minnesota Co
operative Creameries Association.
Mr.. Brandt recently held a
series of conferences at Washing.
ton and received so much favor
able reaction to his proposal
that he is confident of success,
if the dairy farmers will back his
plan up with urgent requests
that legislation be passed.
Recent price decreases for
dairy products have been due
to a flood of products from Den
mark and other European coun.
tries. Foreign sales agencies finG
the American marketing profit
able. despite the present tariff
of s cents. The rate of exchange
which helps the importer is di'
rectly responsible.
While in Washington, Mr.
Brandt presented the plight OF
the Minnesota dairy farmer to
President Coolidge. The Presi'
dent has the power on the advice
of the tariff commission to in
crease the dairy products tariff
to IL cents. The commission
however. must make an extensive
investigation. To do this will
cause a delay which the dairy.
men can i'll afford to tolerate.
After having talked with q
large number of congressman
Mr.. Brandt decided to concen.
trate on an effort to obtain emer.
gency legislation. This will
avoid the possibility of opening
the entire tariff question, astep
which few members of Congress
would consider.
Mr.. Brandt has assurance tina,
proposals to increse dairy pro
ducts tariffs will be embodied in
a bill to be introduced in a few
days.

position after members of the
Board had spent nearly three
weeks canvassing the field. He
was the unanimous choice Of the
Board after a large number of
possibilities had been considered.
Though Mr.. Fellows was not an
applicant for the work. he was
strongly endorsed by many lead
ers in Twin City financial circles.
Mr.. Fellows took the boards
proposition under consideration
and accepted only after he had
made a detailed study of the
plan.
Though comparatively young,
Mr.. Fellows has had extensive
experience in the financial field.
having specialized in bonds and
similar kinds of banking paper
and is therefore, especially well
fitted for duties with the Elk
change. He brings to the organ
ization, high class connections in
all the large financial centers.
Until he severed his direct con.
nections with banking circles,
Mr.. Fellows was vice president OF
the Minnesota Bankers associa-
ton. Under a long established
rule. he would have been elected
president this year, had his new
work not made him ineligible. ;

delightfully."- crowned with the
consumption of innumerable
sizzling "weiners" ct cetera, from
the filling-station of the able
social committee. Long may that
committee function!
Mention must be made of the
excellent talks given by Bert
Armstrong, Jay Traver and Art
Hanson in connection with the
choir's concert at Wilstad last
Sunday. We have always main
tanned that physical heroism can
not weigh in the balance with
moral heroism. Physical courage
can kiss the lips of a blazing
cannon" without a tremor, but so
can a dog in deadly assault with
his enemies. Moral courage has
the stuff to face deadlier enc
mics by far than the barbaric
Hottentot and dares to test its
moral muscle in a supreme
wrestling match with his own
selfshness, lust and Godlessness.
Those fellows that spoke last
Sunday are not accustomed to
hoist the white flag at every
moral sharp-shooter of tempta-
ton that meets them and accord
ing to many, it was this manly
spirit within them that spoke
even louder than their words.
They will speak again next Sum
day in conjunction with the
choir's visit to Kerrick.
