TRAPPERS WARNED TO LEAVE
ILLUSTRATES BE UNTIL MAR. l

A warning has been issued by the
state game and fish department to
those who are inclined to break the
law and trap muskrats this fall and
winter. The season on muskrats is
closed in Minnesota at the present
time and it is unlawful to catch, trap
or sell them before March 1st of next
year. A number of cases have al
ready been reported in which unscup-
ulous buyers have been offering high
prices for the pelts Of the muskrats.
Should anyone offer you any prices
whatsoever, report the case at once,
as it is the intention to get the men
first, who are attempting to buy these
animals. They will be prosecuted to
the full extent of the law.

ST. JAMES CARRIERS
HAVE SNOW BIRD" FORDS

Two ST. James mail carriers have
equipped their Ford cars with "Snow
Birds" and are happily making their
rounds on schedule time. Winfield
Crowley of the Motor Inn, one of the
carriers, put caterpillar chain equip
ment on the rear wheels and runners
in front and made the rounds on his
route in record time. He had to
break track and yet was back in town
by noon. The front runners fit inside
the wheels and are about an inch
above the ground. When bare roads
are encountered the wheels take the
load, the runners being above the
ground. When drifts are found the
front of the car climbs over them and
the wide tractor equipment on the
rear gives plenty of traction.

Farmers Provide Record Profits for Implement Concerns

$1,789,OOO in 1928. While the Case
Machine Co. showed
1926 profit of $3,817,O0O compared
with $2,793,000 in 1925 and only
$634,000 in 1923.
These companies, after passing
through the period of depression in
farm purchasing power, are again
presenting their stockholders with
return which will mean extra divi-
dends and stock dividends in the fu-
ture. The profit of the Harvester
Trust, after allowing for 7 per cent
preferred dividends, gave the COM
mon stockholders a return of 1912 per
cent on their normal investment or
about "a per cent if allowance is made
for recent stock. dividends. Deere &
Company's profit, after paying regu-
lar preferred dividends, meant a re-
turn of 20 II per cent on the par value
of the common stock while Case
Threshing Machine also gave it's
stockholders return of more than
20 per cent.

ment concerns year by year since

finance is getting its share of the
purchasing power of the farmers.
These profits are a by-product Of the
advancing industrialization of agri-
culture especially calculated to whet
the appetite Of Wall Street Finan-

that these enterprises are rounding
out what will undoubtedly prove the
best year in. the last decade.
International Harvester, the giant
of the industry, showed 1926 profit
of $24,088,000 after all deductions for
taxes, depreciation and interest. This
was an increase of about $4,000 over

Third Year of War.
This is the third November of the
coal war in the grey mining towns of
the Pittsburgh Coal Company in
Pennsylvania and Ohio for the miners
who work to produce the wealth flung
away in this grotesque fashion; the
third winter of evictions and hunger
and police terror.
Within six months after the 1925
wage cut was posted in the Mellon
mines every one of the $4,000 Pitts
burgh Coal Company miners had been
evicted from the company houses. A
few days notice-or none at all-and
they had to be out. A sick baby, or
a woman in childbirth, OF the i'm
possibility of finding shelter from the
winter were no excused. Armed
deputies and Coal and Iron police
were on hand to see that the job was
done. Two families in a room, or
three; then hundreds of families
forced away from the camps, scat
tered through the district, jobIess and
homeless.
Lining Up Allies.
The sinister Mellon influence
reaches far beyond the Pittsburgh
Coal Company mines. The Mellon in
terests have lined up company after
company in their anti-union war of
determination. The General Motors
Company demands that the operators
from which it buys coal conform to
Pittsburgh Coal Company labor poll
cies. The Mellon-controlle banks
have forced numbers of Independent
mines to join the open shop drive I'M
der threat of financial ruin.
A tremendous combination of
forces is arrayed against the miners
today. A supreme effort in. support
OF the miners is needed if they are to
come out of the struggle victorious.
The friends of the miners must take
up the challenge and send aid gener-
ously to the miners and their families.
Shoes for the barefoot miners chill
dren, milk for the thousands of min
ers' children who have not tasted milk
for months and years, food to put
strength into men and women and
children for the long fight. The

excellent acting of the cast raises it
to the status of a first class perfor-
mance-one of the best now on the
boards in New York. Coincident with
the announcement of the betfothal of
Adrienne, daughter of Raoul de
Vriaac, to Miguel, the son of his old
est friend, the marquise, Eloise de
Kestournel, arrives on the scene. The
proposed marriage has been arranged
between the two friends who are the
fathers respectively of the girl and
the young man, but is not at all
satisfactory to them. Miguel has a
girl in Paris, while Adrienne is in
love with her fathers secretary.
The youngsters agree not to marry
no matter what happens. Subsequent
developments prove this a wise de-
cision, for Eloise is the mother of
both of them. This fact is unknown
to the two old friends, but is event
ually revealed during the action of
the play. The revelation does not
take place, however, until after the
intruding mother has forced ride

Pittsburgh papers announce. "a two

splendor the fetes celebrating the
nuptials of royalty. America probably
never before has seen preparations

The Mellon millions Haunted in the
faces of the thousands of miners in
the Pittsburgh district whom the Mel
lon interests are trying to starve into
submission are a direct challenge to
all who stand with the miners in their
fight. From the beginning the Mel
Ion interests have been the leading
out of the miners union in the btu
minous fields of Pennsylvania and
Ohio.
The Pittsburgh Coal Company, Mel
lon-controlled, was the first company
openly to break the Jacksonville
agreements months ago, when the
agreement still had 20 months to run
In August, 1925, the company posted
notices of a 33 1-3 per cent wage cut,
and locked out its $4,000 miners. Then

League of North America who asked

arranged at which Vinci told Buzzi
that unless the confession was signed

methods Greco and Carrillo now find
