HENRY RINES HESTTATES ABOUT
BECOMING CONTROLLER; SOME
OFFICIALS DROPPED JULY
FIRST.

Governor Theodore Christianson
is striving to solve the hardest puz-
zle he has met with since taking of
flee. He is trying to find satisfactory
combination OF appointments to start
off the new department OF admins
tration and finance July 1.
State Treasurer Henry Rines is the
key to the problem. The Governor
wants him to resign as state treasur-
er to take the new post of controller,
paying the same salary, but an ap-
pointive post. Mr.. Rines is holding out
and imposing certain conditions, which
he says, must be met if he accepts
the appointment. The condition have
to do with other appointments, and
one Of two of them are causing the
hitch.
A. ]. Peterson of Dawson has agreed
to take the post of budget commits
sioner, it is understood, on condition
that Mr.. Rines will be the controller.
So if Mr.. Rines does not go on the
new board, the Governors combina-
tion is broken. He also is having some
trouble deciding on the right man
for commissioner of purchases.
1t has been considered certain that
H. 81. Flowers of Cleveland, former
speaker Of the house, would be ap-
pointed state treasurer in case Mr..
Rines is shifted. Saturday night

Poultry Assn. Growing.

Albin Anderson Of Revere, presi-
dent of the Redwood County Co-opera-
tive Egg and Poultry Association
called at the Gazette office Tuesday
morning. From Mr.. Anderson was
learned something of the scope and
the possibilities of this Association
which is possibly the youngest of
Redwood Falls industries. Thirteen
people are now employed by this
Association in connection with the
business done in and from its Redwood
Falls office and twelve thousand poul-
try raisers in Redwood and the ad-
jacent counties are now members of
the Association. To these members
between eight thousand and nine
thousand dollars is paid each month
for poultry products, principally eggs
just now. This means much not alone
to the members of the Association but
to the trade centers in the territory
where this money is spent. The AS
sociation feels that as q matter of
reciprocity its products should be at
least considered by the consumers Of
the district. The business is growing
splendidly and promises much for the
future Of this vicinity.

-Four Redwood
Breeders in Ton
Litter Race
O. s. WYMAN, FRED WYMAN, L.
]. WITTWER AND i. r. BALLARD
GET INTO SWINE GROWERS
CONTEST.

Swine growers, big and little, young
and old, in 81 Minnesota counties have
entered 270 litters in the second an
nual state wide pig ton litter con-
test carried on by the agricultural
extension service of the University
of Minnesota in cooperation with the
Minnesota Livestock Breeders as
sociation and the Minnesota Swine
Growers association. Redwood Coun-
ty breeders entered in this contest are
0. S. Wyman of Vesta, Fred Wyman,
Vesta, L. j. Wittwer, Redwood Falls
and |. r. Ballard OF Wabasso.
A few scattering counties have yet
to report to H. G. Zavoral of Univer-
sity Farm, who is in personal charge
of the contest. These will likely in
crease the number of counties to 60
or more and the number OF litters to
nearly 280. Last year 215 litters
were nominated by farmers in 43
counties.
Entries have been received by Mr.
Zavoral from farmers in counties
bordering on Canada on the north to
Iowa state on the south. All the
counties in the southern corn belt of
the state are represented and furnish
by far the greater part Of the en-
trie..
Martin county again leads the state
with % litters nominated. Mower
county is again second with 20 lit
ters. Winona and Blue Earth are
tied for third place at 13 each. Free
born has IL, Mobiles IL, Lincoln TO-,
Yellow Medicine 8, and Dakota, Ohm
sted, and Scott 8 each. The eight
different breeds Of swine are repre-
sented-the Durocs, Poland Chinas,
Chester Whites, Hampshires, Berk-
shires, Yorkshires, Tamworths, and
Spotted Poland Chinas.
Several hundreds of dollars in cash
premiums, given by the Minnesota
Livestock Breeders association, ma
tional breed organizations and various
business interests, will be distributed
among owners of the heaviest itters
in November. In addition, the st.

AND VICINITY SUI
FER MOST FROM LAST WEEKS
DISASTER, CROPS, STOCK AND
BUILDINGS INCLUDED IN LOSS.

A warm June sun poured down Sat-
urday on wrecked buildings in south
ern Minnesota, where storms took
one life, injured score of persons,
and caused property damage esti-
mated Saturday at up to $500,000,
in hall a dozen cities.
The storm in Albert Lea was more
serious than first reports indicated.
Some fields are under water, barns
were wrecked, cattle and horses kill
ed
Mike Winters, Ivanhoe, 10 years
old, was killed when struck by light
ming on his fathers farms. Other
members of the family were stunn-
ed by the bolt.
Saturday, the storm had passed out
of the state, the weather bureau re-
ported. Fair weather is forecast for
Saturday and Sunday.
A large barn on the farm of John
Adkland, four miles northwest of AL
bert Lea, was blown down in Fridays
storms, killing IL cattle and two
horses. Several other horses and cat
tie were badly injured and probably
will have to be killed.
The most narrowing experiences of
the storm, reported at Albert Lea Sat-
urday, was that of Pat Kelly and his
wife and son, living near the city.
Kelley and his son were caught UNDER
meath the barn, which collapsed and
killed several horses and cattle.
When the storm struck, Kelley and
his son rushed into the barn to quiet
the stock. Mrs. Kelley was sick in
bed in the house. The two men barely
had begun to release cattle from their
stanchions when the barn, with tons
of hay in the loft crashed to the
ground, burying them in the midst
of believing cattle.
Frank, the son, seriously injured,
managed to crawl along the floor and
out through small opening between
the timbers, creeping on his hands
and knees to the kitchen of the house.
Calling to his mother, he tainted.
With nobody available to go for help
Mrs. Kelley rose from a sickbed and
made her way through water and mud
to the farm home of George Dopple-
heimer mile away.
The Doppleheimers riding in an
automobile to neighboring farms, soon
brought q band of workers who reach
ed Mr.. Kelley after several hours
work, finding him pinned under q
huge timber.
Kelley and his SON are in q critical
condition. Mrs. Kelley also is in seri-
GUS condition, brought on by exposure.
At Red Wing, automobile bus traf-
fic to the south and railway traffic
in all directions virtually is at stand
still. Crop damage in Goodhue coun-
ty will largely be confined to low1ands

Coop. Law
Measure is
Held Unlawful
BACKBONE OF COOP MOVE
MENT' DECLARED UNCONSTI-
TUTIONAL BY JUSTICE HOLT
OF STATE COURT.

Section twenty-seven of the Min
nesota cooperative laws, which for
bids third parties to purchase Oh
handle products of any cooperative
organization in the state, and which
is claimed to be the Backbone" of
the Minnesota Cooperative movement
was held unconstitutional Friday by
the state supreme court.
The ruling reverses the LeSueur
county district court in the case of
the Minnesota Wheat Growers Co
operative Marketing association and
A. D. Radke and independent elevat-
Ors.
However, the other sections of the
law are not affected by this decision
the organizations having the same
no supervision over any one who pur-
chases produce OF grain on the open
market.
Section twenty-six, which provides
in general that a third party cannot
induce member to breach his con-
tract is constitutional and is merely
a reiteration of the common law, the
court held.
: The case originated when the Wheat
Growers association sought an injunc-
tion against Radtke of LeSueur Cen
ter to restrain him from purchasing
produce from farmers who were mem
bers of the Wheat Growers associa-
ton.
Judge C. M. Tiffit of the lower
court granted a temporary injunction
from which Mr.. Radtke appealed.
This decision was reversed with the
announcement of the sections uncon-
stitutionality.
The opinion, written by Justice An
drew Holt, holds that at seems clear
to us that it is beyond the power of
the legislature to make it tort to
purchase, in the ordinary course of a
legitimate business, from the true
owner a wholesome staple commodity
upon which there is no lien and which
is not under any ban or regulation.
Liberty of contract is assured by both
the state and federal constitutions.

Farm Bureau
Survey Shows
Good Advance

The June 1 farm labor survey COM
piled by the Minnesota Farm Bureau
shows a small increase in both the
average daily and monthly wage for
the state over May 1.
The June average wage is $2.12 for
general work per day, as compared
with $2.04 for May; $45.54 for general
work per month compared with $43. .16;
and $49.65 for general work for eight
months as compared with $45.63.
A comparison of 924 and 1925 show
slight decrease in the average daily
wage and an increase in the monthly
wage, the June 1, 1924 average being
$2.20 for a day labor and $42.9O by
the month.
The report also shows the lessening
in the demand. A number of counties
report an oversupply of inexperienced
help coming largely from the indus
trial centers, with only a moderate
supply OF experienced help.
A new departure is marked by the
establishment of egg brands by the
Minnesota Cooperative Egg & Poul-
try Exchange, which has selected the
name, Lake Region Extras" for its
top pack and Minnesota Premium"
for second pack eggs.
With the quality eggs now produced
by the producer members OF this fast
growing Minnesota Coop. winning
recognition on the eastern markets
equal to California fancies, it will not
be long, it is believed by the man.

tras" will command as great popular
ity in the consuming centers of the
country as does Land O. Lakes but
te;.
The association shipped n cars of
eggs during April, amounting to ap-
proximately $500, 900 gross sales. This
months business about equalled that
of the first five months of the ex-
changes operation last year.
The exchange is now locating
large concentration plant for feeding
and dressing poultry at La Crosse,
Wis.,, where it expects to handle sew
eral million pounds OF poultry dur
ing the coming season.
District egg and poultry associa-
tions are being organized at La
Crosse, Willmar and Worthington,
while those recently formed at Ro-
chester, Red Wing and Redwood Falls
arc already in operation.
