NOTICE TO STOCKMEN
AND SUBSCRIBERS OF
THE ASKOV AMERICAN

/, In the May 9th issue of the
American it appears that there
was some misunderstanding in
the write-up of the Mineral Mix
ture put out by the Savage Min
eral Co., tributary to Moose Lake,
and sold through a Moose Lake
feed store. Upon investigation
by the publisher of the American
he finds he did not get the COM
plete formula of the Mineral Mix
ture being sold, taking for grant
ed his informant, a field worker
for the American, was sufficient
ly posted on his contribution to
the write-up. He stated that a
prominent concern at Sandstone
had turned down this proposition.
Upon investigation the writer of
this article finds that the prom
inent concern at Sandstone did
not turn down the feed propo-
sition as unwise. The manager
of the district consulted the
prominent concern at a busy hour
of the day and the prominent con-
Germ asked the writer to call
again when he had more time to
look into the proposition. Evil

PINE CITY GETS NEXT
w. C. T. u. CONVENTION

The twenty-frst annual con.
vention of the Woman's Christ.
ian Temperance Union, 18th dis
trict, held at Sandstone Tuesday
was well attended and a good
program was carried out.
Mayor Jas. Mulholland bid well
come, many papers were read,
discussions were taken part in
and there was also good pro-
gram of songs and music.
Chief among the addresses was
the one given by Mrs. Josephine
Sizer of St. Paul, state president
of the w. c. T. u. She has made
a thorough study of the liquor
question and prohibition, and
handles the subject very ably.
While the prohibition law is bro
ken she said other laws are bro
ken and that is no reason why it
should be repealed. She stated
pointedly that because there is a
law against murder and murders
are committed is no reason why
that law should be- annulled, ad-
ding that the same holds true of
national prohibition. Drunk
people are seen even now under
prohibition-of course that is not
as it should be-but, Mrs. Sizer
added, how many DRINKS do you
see now in comparison with the
saloon days?
Senator A. S. Larson also gave
a good talk on law enforcement
stating that national prohibition
is here to stay.
Mrs. Adella M. Norton, Pine
City, was reelected president and
the vice-president, Mrs. Minnie
B. Piper, Pine City, was also re-
elected; Mrs. Mary Randall, Mora,
was elected secretary; and Mrs.
Emma Wood, Henriette, treas
.urer. Mrs. H. C. Hansen, Askov,
was reelected child welfare SUI
perintendent for the district.

IDENTIFY the field worker for the
American took advantage of one
farmers information: that
mail order house was furnishing
a Mineral Mixture at lower
price. Which we do not question.
The publisher of the American
did not get the complete formula
being put out by the above COM
pany, which should read as fol-
lows:
GUARANTEED FORMULA
Spent bone black and sterilized bone
flour Containing not less than
1919 bone phosphate of lime)
1000 per cen.
Pulverized Limestone Containing not
less than $3.50 calcium carbonate)
.........! .......... 4O.OO per cent
Salt Sodium chloride) 800 per cent
Oil meal Containing not less than
SAX .protein) $50. 1000 per cent
MOlaSSeS .............5 500 per cent
The publisher was not suffi-
GENTLY posted as to the different
grades. The quality of some
limestone. will run down as low
as 500 calcium carbonate, leav-
ing 500 magnesium which is a
detriment to live stock instead
of a benefit. This low grade of
limestone would reduce the price.
Referring to bone meal. Same
grades of bone meal exist and
can be purchased with a 1919
bone phosphate instead of 1910
bone phosphate which should re-
duce the price. The cheap or
low grade Mineral Mixtures are
usually put out under what is
called blind tag, not giving the
analysis of limestone or bone
meal. Bone meal is at present
being sold by local dealers in Pine
county at from $500 per cwt. and
up regardless of the bone meal
test. The County Agent states
that 700 pounds of bone meal is
sufficient for herd of cows for
one year. He also states upon
investigation that our mixture
is good, but his office does not
permit him to state what is
reasonable or unreasonable price
for such mixture. He. does state
that the quality of the goods
governs the price. The County
Agent also states that he thinks
it necessary that Mineral Mix,
ture should be used especially
for hogs in Pine county. Upon
our repeat work and sales we
find that 600 pounds is sufficient
for 10 cows for a years feed.
Where farmers purchase 800
pounds to J ton it must be under
stood that they are buying for
their hogs and poultry as well as
their cows. The County Agent
is right that Mineral Mixtures
can be purchased for less, but he
does not state that the above
formula can be purchased for
less, as quality governs the price
not only on this but on all COM
mercial feeds. This company has
been in the feed business for
years and has always been in
close touch with the Feed De-
partment of the University of
Minnesota and finds it an un-
wise thing to use. cheap and low
grade goods to dump upon the
farmers.
We have as yet to hear from
any state experiment station
where they advise using low
grade feeding mixture to obtain
any results, but. as matter of
record when they do experiment
on various Feed Mixtures they
have the analysis of such mate

81 HAVE BEEN FAITHFUL"
DR.. Roy L. Smith

A Minneapolis nurse was being
taken up to the operating room
of the hospital where she was to
undergo a serious operation, so
serious, indeed, that it was doubt
full whether or not she would live
through the experience.
Calling a friend to her side she
gave her this message: Please
tell my pastor l have been faith
full to two things my work and
my daughters"
Nurses do not get to church
very often. Sick folks must be
cared for on Sundays as well as
on other days.
Nurses seldom serve on COM
mittees of public welfare. Sick
folks must be cared for at the
time that committees are meet
ing.
Nurses seldom run for office.
Sick folks are not much interes-
ted in politics. Their favors do
not go to the politically power
full.
Nurses are seldom social lead
. ers. The long, dark hours of the
night, the ether laden atmos-
phere of the hospital and the alb
normal psychology Of the pa
tients and their friends-es pec-
tally their friends are not con-
ducive to social prominence.
The nurse does her work I'M
heralded and unsung. Yet the
well walk the streets of the city,
take up their work where they
left it, run for office, organize
community drives, go back to
church and straightway forget
the minister of mercy, robed in
white, who dragged them back
from the edge of the grave.
"She was wonderful nurse. |
can't remember her name, but
she saved my life" So runs the
record, because she. was faithful
to her work and the world-at'
least the well worlds in
hurry.
The theologians may disagree
but it seems probable that when
the nurse stands before the Eter-
nal Judge and is asked to give
an account of her work, if she
says truthfully, II was faithful
to my work and to my. girls"
the examination will not last
much longer. In fact, there is
a good chance that she will never
be asked whether she believes in
evolution, the inspiration of the
scriptures or a lot of other things
we quarrel about.
Il have been faithful to my
work and to my girls"

 PHILA. IS BURST
Would,Be Film Stars Left in
 the LurCh

Philadelphia, Oct. 27 P - Tho movie bubble burst today for a number of golden haired would-be ingenues, prospective "sheiks' and aspirants for comedy honors on the silver screen.
 A. L. Gilbert, who had promised them stardom, was held in $500 bail for court by Magistrate Violet Fahenstock after investigators of the securities bureau of the state of banking had charged him with selling stock of his Hol- lywood Film Productions company without a license. His arrest follow cd complaints of would-be stars of the screen, who alleged that they had paid him various sums for a course of instruction in motion pie ture acting on the promise they would be placed in the movies.
 Gilbert, legiess man, denounced his prosecution as a "frame-up and accused Jealous" film corpora tions of trying to remove him from competition. He maintains offices here and in Camden, N. J. He de- nied having sold any stock of his concern either In this city or state.
 Witnesses testified that Gilbcrt's promised that for $50 he would make movie star" of anyone who studied his methods and that he would cast the students in a motion picture story he was filming at his studio in Whitings, \. J. After five lessons, the wit nesses said, they were informed that they had been unsuccessful because they did not have enough influence with the director of the company and that the only way to obtain this influence was 10 buy stock at $50 a share. Michael Cata- lado told the magistrate he had invested $500 before getting wise"
