NEW YORK, January 2S.-Former
Judge George A. Garden yesterday
characterized charges contained in
Charles B. Brewers $1,102, 900 suit
against former Secretary of War
Weeks as "slanderous allegations"
Brewer. a former Assistant Attor-
ney General, filed the suit few days
ago in Washington. He alleges that
Mr.. Weeks illega3 paid $o50,000 to
Mr.. Garden and Anderson T. Herd
in a transaction involving the sale
OF seven Austrian ships.
Mr.. Garden, now a broker at 43
Exchange place, said that the matter
was aired before military court.
which decided that he and several
associates were entitled to compen-
sation amounting to nearly $4,000 900.
The decision of the court was re-
versed later, and, according to Mr..
Garden, the matter was investigated
by congressional committee. Later.
he said Mr.. Weeks paid the $550,000
after a conference with the Attorney
General.
The Government still owes us
about Sc 1000, 900" said Mr.. Garden.
and even according to the con-
clusion of its own court, about

BALTIMORE, Md, January Is
Winter sunlight for children-not the

ordinary glass from which the healing
ultraviolet rays have been filtered
but the real thing with virtually all of
its health giving quality-may now be
obtained inexpensively.
Dr. A. Herman Pfund. associate pro.
fessor of physics at Johns Hopkins,
has found that between 60 and 20 per
cent of the medicinal value of the
suns ultraviolet rays remains in the
sunlight that passes through a type
of transparent wrapping paper ordi.
narily used on candy bars.
Available i'm Homes.
The advantage in this discovery Is
the cheapness with which ultraviolet
ray treatment may be made available
In homes, nurseries and SanitariumS In
cold weather. Scientists many years
have realized the curative value of
ultraviolet rays.
Several years ago one of the large
corporations manufacturing electrical
appliances presented the children'S sec
ton of Johns Hopkins Hospital with
a window made of Is quartz glass
panes costing 1000 each that admit
passage of ultraviolet rays.
This window has been used largely
in the treatment of ricketts,. but eX-

The Springfield team of the B-W-R

August 18th, by defeating the locals
in a game full of errors by 7-2

the fact that the locals Aeavy artil-

being made by Goodthunder in the
fifth frame. Poske, Gill and john

SUGAR BEET CROP
OUTLOOK NOT AS
BRIGHT AS 1925
FAIR CROP IS EXPECTED AL
THOUGH UNFAVORABLE CON-
DITIONS HAVE HELD CROP
BACK.

With but 625 acres of sugar beets
planted in Redwood County this year
or approximately Its acre loss from
the 1895 acreage the 1926 crop does not
look as favorable as was anticipated.
In certain sections of the county the
crop is quite light because of the con-
tinuous drought but the beets are
standing the unfavorable conditions
and fair crop is expected, according
to M. L. Pettis, manager of the Red
wood County district. Of the 625
acres planted this year 100 acres had
to be replanted and $50 acres were a
total loss due to the frost, high winds
and drought.
In 1925 the Redwood County crop
was high in the Chaska district in
the number of tons per acre, the av-
erage was 10.4 tons per acre. Mr..
Pettis states that the price of sugar
quoted by New York in 1925 was the
lowest that he had ever known, it be-
ing $4.84 per cwt. The price paid to
the growers for the 1925 crop of beets
was $3.50 per ton. This year on the
contract price the growers are guar
anteed $500 per ton no matter how
low sugar is. The $500 per ton beets

ABANDONING MAY
MEAN SAVING In
STATE ROAD FUND
GRADING, SURFACING AND DE-
TOUR COSTS LESSENED BY
USING NEW LOCATION-SA
TY A FACTOR.

Abandoning a graded and gravel
ed road may look like waste of pub
lie funds, and people in Redwood
County who have made comments
along this line may be interested in
the statement in bulletin from the
State Highway department to the eff
feet that the saving in road building
costs alone may be several times as
great as the cost of new right of way.
The saving is effected in several
ways: by saving in actual distance,
by selecting locations where construc-
tion costs are moderate and by saving
in detour expense.
The saving in distance is particu-
larly noticeable when a road is to be
paved. The average cost of paving
is about $4,000 mile and shorten
ing the distance mile will pay for
several miles of new right of way and
grading.
Sometimes the old road has steep
grades and sharp turns so that the
cost of making grade which would
be safe, and convenient, would be ex-
,cessive. Frequently location can be

Mock was driving was crashed into by
an auto driven by Mr.. Wesley C.

right side of the road as the cars
crashed, turning his auto completely
over.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mock were rushed to
the Redwood Falls hospital where they

STOCK FEEDERS

BY CIVIC CLUB
REDWOOD FALLS COMMERCIAL
CLUB CALLS MEETING OF RED
WOOD AND RENVILLE COUN-
TY STOCK FEEDERS.

Farmers of Redwood and Renville
Counties who buy and feed cattle,
hogs, or sheep are invited to attend
meeting called Saturday, August 81
at 1:30 P. M, in the Commercial
Club Rooms at Redwood Falls.
This meeting is being arranged by
the committee appointed by the Com
mercial Club. Local feeders with
years of experience in buying, feed
ing and selling will be on the pro-
gram. Some outside speakers who
have first hand information on avail
able feeders, stock prices, shipping
rates, etc., direct from the range, are
being secured for this meeting.
There has been a great deal of
thought and study put on the purchas-
ing and marketing of stock with the
hopes of eliminating some of the ex-
penses, losses, shrinkage, yardage,
diseases, ETC., connected with the usual
experience of feeders. There is no
doubt but what the feeders profits are
largely tied up in the purchasing end
of his operation.
To the inexperienced buyer this
hazard is even greater. Undoubted-
ly more feeding may be carried on
and perhaps should be carried on but
unsuccessful attempts on the part of
inexperienced buyers have limited
the feeding business to a fewer num-
Der of the older experienced men who
are also finding this a serious prob
lem.
Such a meeting of men interested
in this business may result in the
forming of some plan of buying that
will eliminate some of these risks and
expenses, making the feeding busi-
ness safer for all concerned. 1t will
at least bring out splendid ex-
change of ideas that will be of value
to anyone in the feeding business.
August 21st at 1:30 P. NJ, is the
date. The Redwood Falls Commercial
Club Room, is the place. A good time
assured all who are interested.

LIBRARY SHOWS
GOOD REPORT OF
YEAR'SACTIVITIES
d. w. GOLD IS NEW PRESIDENT
OF BOARD; MRS. A. P. FALK
SECRETARY, AND FRED ORTIZ
TREASURER.

At the annual meeting of the Red
wood Falls Library Board, held last
Thursday evening, D. w. Gold was
made president succeeding DR.. j. W.
Inglis who in turn was elected vice
president. Mrs. A. P. Falk was elect
ed secretary and Fred R. Orth treas
urer. Mrs. Falk and Mr.. Orth are
the new members of the Board sue
ceeding Mrs. C. G. Little and H. A.
Baldwin recently resigned. Mr..
Wichman, by reason of his position as
superintendent of the schools here,
becomes member of the Board.
A feature of the annual meeting
was the reading of the annual report
of the librarian, Miss Marie Tolz-
man. The resources of the Library
as revealed by Miss Tolzman's repolt
are startlingly slight considering the
importance of the institution. Re-
ceipts from the city taxation amounts
to S1,589.41 while the school district,
which is part of the library unit, con-
tributes $500. Fines and sales Of
publications brought in $45.5O, and
there were a few minor gifts, inter-
est, etc., bringing the total to ST.
$50. Out of this amount must be paid
S1010 for library service, and $156.90
for janitor service. 1t cost $133.32
to heat the building and light cost
$71.42. In addition to these items
there are any number of miscellaneous
expenditures which brought down the
amount to be expended for books un-
til the sum for this purpose, amounted
to only S205.76 with another $117.70
to be spent for periodicals. With the
present high price of both books and
the more worth while magazines it is
very evident that this amount is
wholly inadequate to serve the pur-
poses of the library. A total Of 130
books have been given as gifts, Mrs.
w. H. Gold contributing the larger
share of this number.
