CONGRESSMAN CLAGuE
FAITHFUL TO FARMERS

The farmers of the Second district
may have all confidence in their rep
resentative in Congress, Frank
Clague.
Having farm interests himself he
is in direct sympathy with all farm
conditions and understands perfectly
the various problems which the far
mers have to meet.
He has stood firmly and worked to
the best of his ability for farm relief
legislation during the long fight for
the McNary-Haugen bill. He believes
that that measure, while not perfect,
would have helped the farmer some
what and was a start for future re-
lief. 1t is his opinion, expressed in
his able community day address, that
the farmer should receive about the
same price for what he has to sell as
he has to pay for what he has to buy.
This is the aim of all congressman
who worked for farm legislation.
We may safely put faith in Con-

WHY PUBLIC UTILITIES SHOULD
ADVERTISE.

Eight reasons why public utilities
should advertise were given by Frank
Leroy Blanchard, president Public
Utilities Advertising Association and
advertising manager Cities Service
Company, before the League Of Ad-
vertising Women recently.
They were: To sell securities and
services of the company, to keep the
stockholders informed regarding its
affairs, to tell the general public
about the company itself-its poll.
cies, personnel, plans, etc; to defend
itself when unjustly attacked, to op-
pose state or municipal legislation
that would hamper the physical op-
erations of the company, to promote
public good will by encouraging
thrift, measures to increase public
safety, etc.; to present its reasons for
applying to the State Utility Com
mission for permission to increase
it's rates or to issue bonds or other
securities and to set forth arguments
for the renewal of its franchise.

FOWL SHOW DATES
DEC. % TO JAN. |
BIG ANNUAL BROWN COUNTY
EXHIBITION WILL BE HELD AT
CHRISTENSEN GARAGE, AT
SLEEPY EYE.

At meeting Of members of the
Brown County Poultry association
held at Sleepy Eye, last Thursday ev-
ening, dates were chosen for the big
annual Brown County Poultry show
which is to be staged at the Morris
Christensen building in Sleepy Eye
from Thursday, December 20, to Sum-
day, January l, inclusive. The exhi-
bition floor will be 36x120 feet in
size, and is centrally located.
It was decided to again offer the
same premium scheduled on poultry
and pigeons, which prevailed at the
show held at New Ulm Armory, in
January, this year. The liberal cash
prizes hung up for blue-blooded fowls
have proven a big drawing card for
breeders and fanciers throughout the
northwest, and it is the endeavor of
the management to retain this en-
viable reputation.
Secretary E. C. Lenzmeier OF
Sleepy Eye was instructed to COM
municate with leading poultry judges,
two of whom will be engaged to make
the awards at the Sleepy Eye show.
The secretary also was directed to
issue membership cards to all mem
bers of the association. This is an
innovation, no membership cards
having previously been issued

CONCRETE HIGHWAY
LONGEST IN WORLD

The longest pavement in the world
of one material, is now found in Min.
nesota. When the last concrete was
poured July on T. H. No. l, near
Rush City, it made a continuance rib
bon of concrete 1855 miles long, from
White Bear to the bottom of the long
hill in the city of Duluth. The next
longest concrete road is between
olympia, Wash, and Vancouver, 1875
miles, and the third longest is from
Kansas City to Columbia, Mo-, 125
miles.
The new pavement on No. will
be opened as soon as shoulder grad
ing is completed. After that it will
be possible, by starting at Brainard
and going via St. Cloud, the Twin
Cities, Duluth, Virginia to Grand
Rapids, Mimi, to take continuous
ride 416 miles long on pavement. Not
all of its is concrete, however, other
types being used in several places.

CROWDING AND NECKING GOV.
Erred BY MODEL ORDINANCE;
SIX IN COUPE HIT BY TRAIN
AND LIVE.

The danger of crowded front seat:
in automobiles, long recognized b.
traffic officers, is given official recog'
milton in the model traffic ordinance
prepared by the League of Minnesota
municipalities.
One section of the new ordinance
provides that it shall be prima facit
evidence of careless driving.
When there are more than two be.
side the driver in the drivers seat.
When the driver has anyone in his
lap, or is seated in the lap of another
person while the car is in motion.
When the driver has his, arm around
another person, or when another per-
son has an arm around the driver
while the car is in motion.
Accidents due to crowded front seats
are all too common. In a large pro-
portion of fatal accidents, overcrowd-
ing was at least partly responsible.
The Grand Meadow Record recent
ly told of an accident near Adams,
where a small coupe with three men
and three women ran into train.
The car was demolished but by a
streak of luck all six occupants are
alive.
''Three in a Seat Dangers is the
subject of a recent editorial in the
Minneapolis Star. 1t says:
"The front seat of an automobile
is designed to seat two adults. We
know some drivers who will not oper-
ate their cars with more than one
other person in the front seat. They
refuse to take a chance of having
freedom of quick action hampered il
an emergency should demand it.
'We notice in many grade crossing
fatalities the driver has had too many
in the front seat. A locomotive en-.
gineer has the whole side of a roomy
cab to himself. He is running or
rails, it is not necessary for him tc
dodge walkers, other machines anC
wagons. He may go for months
without having to make an emer.
gency stop. He does no steering, his
work is mental to a great extend. The
need for unhampered movement is
about one to thousand compared tC
driving an automobile.
every time we go out, we see ma
chimes being driven at express train
speed with the driver pinned closely
in his seat. All will be well if moth
ing happens. But if something does
happen death or injury is almost GER
tain.
"Why is not more stress put on the
three in the front seat danger in
safety first talks ?"

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
Stakeholder Is a Partner.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.

With stocks attracting so large a
nroportion OF investment interest as
they have been doing in the past six
months the occasion seems to justify
a resume Of the relative advantages
of stocks and bonds for permanent
holding.
In the first place the status of the
stakeholder is radically different from
that OF the bondholder. The latter
loans his money out at interest and is
concerned only with the regular pay
ments Of interest, the agreed upon
rate and of the principal when it falls
due. Any change in the outlook for
the corporation the bond of which he
owns is of importance only to the
extent that it bears upon the certainty
of these payments. Surprising the
borrower enjoys exceptional pros
perity, it means nothing to the bond
holder in the way of extra income. All
he can hcN3 for is some slight appre'
citation in the market price Of his bond
in recognition of the increased secu-
rity.
On the other hand, If hard times
come and the business is conducted at
q loss the bondholder must still be
paid, otherwise he can force the com
pany into bankruptcy. The stock

bends when there are profits to divide
and when there are none he goes with

to the return of the money he paid
for his stock.
No one can promise the stockholder
continuity of dividends. Moreover, the
market price of his stock reflects In its

WEEVIL BIG FACTOR
IN COTTON THIS YEAR
Infestation Heaviest Since 1923,
Says U. S, Report-Hot, Dry
Weather Now Is Needed.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The boil weevil menace is the out
standing factor in the cotton situation
this year, the Department of Agri-
culture says in announcing that in
dica tons at present point to pro
duction of 1892 900 bales. This to-
tai would be smaller than any crop
since 1922 and 4,500.000 bales less
than last years record crop.
On the weather during the remain
der of this month and the first half
of September will depend whether the
crop will be larger or smaller than
that now indicated, the department
said. Hot. dry weather would tend TO
lower the weevii hazard and corre-
spondingly enhance the production
outlook but cloudy md rainy days
would tend to make t''s menace in
cTeasingly serious, its experts said.
Infestation of weevils is the heavi-
est since 1923 and is three times as
heavy as at this time last year. with
Georgia suffering most from the pest.
