INDIFFERENCE OF PARENTS

At 1915 A. M. Friday morning,
the local police picked up three boys,
sixteen years old or less, who were
trying to get into local business
place; the boys were locked up in
the city Jail and at 2.15 P. M. after
the boys had been locked up for Ia
hours, they were given lecture and
turned out.
But not parent of any of the three
boys made an inquiry about their
boy; seemingly the boys were not
missed at home. If the boys of this
age are permitted to run wild" with
out anyone to know or care where
or what they are, it is any wonder the
country is growing q criminal class.
Sooner or later parents will be made
to realize their responsibility to chill
dren and society by being arrested
and being forced into court when they
display such utter disregard of their
children's whereabouts OF welfare

Embedded in tree trunk along the
Minnesota river for the past sixty
four years, leaden bullet, fired by
one of Little Crows Sioux Indians
during the Indian outbreak Of 1862,
failed to harm a paleface until last
week, when George Cutting of Sleepy
Eye was wounded by the missile. Mr..
Cutting was in the act of cutting lum-
Der from a tree which had been
brought in from a spot, where, it is
known that some hard fighting took
place between the whites and Indians
in that far off day. The teeth of the
circular saw caught the bullet and
hurled with sufficient force against
Mr.. Cuttings forehead to cause an
ugly scalp wound. Had the bullet
struck direct instead of glancing, Mr..
Cutting would now be numbered
among the victims of Indian days in
Minnesota. The bullet will be re-
tanned as relic.

LOOK OUT FOR THIS

Many persons have been victimized
by the Zenith Lawn Accessory Com
pany, firm with numerous mail adj
dresses, engaged in selling grass
seed mixture for lawn under the
coined name "Herbrae Pratt" The
post office department has denied the
company the use of the mail. Ac-
cording to the United States depart
ment of agriculture grossly erroneous
statements as to its suitability for
lawn have been made. It's qualities
have been proclaimed in such phrases
as "The boss of all grasses, "the
worlds most beautiful bluegrass"
"a lawn in 80 days anywhere" sit
will grow where other grasses have
failed, in any soil or climate" cheat,
cold, or shade will not affect it."
! An analysis of the mixture made
. by the department seed testing lab
oratory showed it to be composed
mainly of meadow fescue and Italian
rye grass. The victims have paid as
high as $1.50 a pound for the mix
ture, whereas, according to the de-
partment, the constituents of Her.
bae Pratt mixture could have been
purchased from reputable seed firms
for not more than 18 to 20 cents a
pound.
Meadow fescue is not lawn grass.
In the humid sections of the United
States it is good meadow and pas
ture grass when used in mixtures
with other grasses, but it may be
said unqualifiedly that it is not
desirable lawn grass nor is it drought
resistant in the commonly accepted
sense of the term. Italian rye grass
is sometimes used for making temper
airy lawns as a minor constituent of
permanent lawn mixtures for quick
and temporary results. Meadow fes-
cue and Italian rye grass are not turf
forming grasses, but grow in punches
much the same as timothy, and, there
fore, it is impossible Cor them to
make a valvety turf. By nature of
their growth they are not aggressive
against weeds and creeping grasses,
and they are not more tolerant of
shade than is Kentucky blue grass

BERLIN. December 10.-Marshal Pill
| sudski's government issued Saturday
two DEGREES which, II passed by the
Polish Diet, render almost impossible
the publication of political news and
even prohibit private political con-
versation in Poland except In glorih-

The DEGREES also appear likely to
hamper foreign correspondents, who
organized a deputation to go to the

The first decree, which applies
both to newspapers and individuals,
bans all conversation in public places
Of a nature which would cause harm
to the state under penalty Of three
months imprisonment or $500 fine.
The person sending such news to
paper is liable to six months in Jail
or 81 900 fine.
II a paper attacks state officials
the responsible member OF the staff
is liable to years Imprisonment or
$4,000 fine. Penalties as high as
three years in prison and $4,000 fine
are provi1cd for persons speaking
openly Of alleged danger to the
Polish state from within or without,
the gravity Of the. offense depending
on it's effects.
Any one criticizing high govern
ment officials is liable to prosecution
even If the injured party files no
charges, and person criticizing the
President may not plead the truth as
justification.
The second decree provides six
weeks in Jail or $1,000 fine for the
newspaper man responsible for publ.

decree until the trial begins or for
taking the side Of any one convicted
