Swift & Co.'S. Produce Man
Visits Sank Centre Plant
J. H. Bird of Chicago Sees Bright
Outlook for the Poultry Raisers
of This Section

Mr.. H. J. Bird of Chicago, who has
general charge of the produce plants
Of Swift & Company, was an interest
ed visitor in Sank Centre a few days
ago.
Mr.. Bird expressed himself as be-
ing very favorably impressed with
the possibilities of the poultry raising
industry in this section of Minnesota.
Mr.. Bird continued that from all
indications there was a normal crop
of poultry and that the local produce
plant with it's new addition and in
creased facilities, would continue to
milkfeed and dress poultry all through
the year. There is certainly splen
did opportunity for producers in this
section of Minnesota to market their
stocks. g
According to Mr.. Bird, it will re-
quire 10000 head of poultry each
week to keep the plant running to
capacity during January, February,
and March. Furthermore, he said,
"Those who are able to carry over a
part of their focks for sale after the
first of the year will probably be
able to realize better prices than
now prevail, because the market tend
ency is generally higher after the
first of the year when the largest end
of the poultry has moved. Young
ROSTERS will be showing their spurs
and will sell to best advantage be-
tween now and January LIST.

Several Claimants Are
C0ntesting Stearns Co.
W0n1an'S Share i'm Estate

Another complication entered into
the Jennings estate litigation-the
estate in which Mrs. Leo Rengel of
Brooten claims a cool million by
virtue of crumpled note given her
by the eccentric millionaire whose. life
she. saved in Chicago the third day
after her arrival in the United States
as a war bride-late Monday when
Charles Edgar Morris, rancher, came
forward in Chicago to put in a new
claim to the estate, according to the
press dispatches.
He says he is a nephew of Jennings
eccentric millionaire, who died 1928,
leaving his wealth to be fought for
by a score or more of individuals,
claiming relationship and others, with
demands based on little or nothing.
To date will, mysteriously mailed
to the trust company which has the
estate in charge and giving it to a
Lawyer for Jennings, has been brand
ed forgery and thrown out of court.
The claims of eight cousins have
been recognized, the claims OF -four
others are under consideration and
nothing has been done about the
soiled scrap of paper, apparently
written upon by Jennings, giving a
cool quarter of a million to the
former English war nurse who in
Chicago between trains, is said to
have saved the aged man from death
beneath the wheels of truck.
Morris comes into the case almost
as fancifully as some of the others.
He didn'e suspect he might be heir
to fortune, he said Tuesday, until
he received a mysterious summons to
Peru, Ind, and there was handed a
will making him sole heir to the es-
tate, provided he was unmarried.
The will, he said, was given him by
]. A. Cole, an attorney of Peru.
"My mother, now on the seas
bound for America, was a sister of
jennings" Morris said Tuesday. GIN

near Calgary, Can. Then he sold
that and put me on a ranch near
Lake Louise, Calgary. It is still
part of the estate and is worth ST.
100000.
Gin 1923 I saw my uncle here in
Chicago. He had heard 1 was en-
gagged to marry girl named Rose
Wray, of Spanish extraction who
lived up near the ranch. He told me
that he had left me out of his will be-
cause he objected to my marrying a
foreigner Then he joked me about
being an old bachelor and said that if
l would mary an American girl he'd
leave me half of his estate. didn't
marry at all and supposed l had been
cut off. My uncle said he never mar
ried because the one girl for him had
died" .
The will is to be offered for pro-
bate this week. Contest of it is ex-
pected to be long drawn out, Morris
said that meantime he is looking
around for some girl with whom he
thinks he can be happy. But she must
be willing to marry him, whether he
gets any of his uncle's estate or not.
Mrs. Leo Rengel of Brooten,
Mimi, has filed a claim for $780,
600 against the $6,00O,O0O estate of
Edward Jennings of Chicago, support
ing her claim with letters said to be
in Mr.. Jennings own handwriting,
in which he stipulates she is to- be
given this amount on his death for
saving him from death beneath the
wheels of laundry truck. Olaf
Bruce, Minneapolis attorney, is rep
resenting Mrs. Rengel. - Tuesday

morning when a great big, $4,000

then went careening off down the
street without offering an apology.
The little car. however. got an even
