INDUSTRIAL PEACE.

The facts amply justify President Coolidges great speech at Pittsburgh Wednesday night on industrial peace in the United States. The Pres- dent was right both to the existence of the peace and as to the cause for it's being It is due to better understanding, closer cooperation and greater recognition of 'mutuality of inter- est" The result has been fewer strikes, in- creased per capita production and wider and profounder contenment As the President said ::

More or Less True

What mother says to father when he uses the guest towel is what father would like to say to mother when she makes him use the dish towel--if he dared. We reckon it is almost as hard on some of these thin-blooded girls to dress like they were liv- ing on the equator as it is for father to have the family living as if he were rich.
 Dad feels if the ladies of the church had any real religion they would show it by giving him the proceeds of at least one rum mage sale to buy him new out fit. since they've got everything old of his except what he hap pened to have on the day the collections were made.
 The difference between the maie and female is that the male would rather wear warm than cute things.
 The fact his pipe doesn't draw seems a trifling thing for man to worry about to woman, and a man cana't see why a woman should think the world would come to an end if she didn't get a little powder on her shiny nose. No two things are quite so diff ferent as the sweet time they had during their courting and the sweet" times they have after they are married.
 Some women seem to enjoy be- ing miserable so much that they give Us the impression they'd be glad to have corsets come back so they'd have something else to complain about.
 A mans clothes are as thin as women's only in those spots where they are worn threadbare.
 There's nothing more pathetic than a five dollar pair of silk stockings on a pair of two-cent legs.

The Next Congress.
(Hastings. Neb., Tribune. )

When Congress meets in December one of the first matters to be taken under consideration will be the of lowering the tax. It is also said that Congress wants the Coolidge pro- gram of economy and efficiency carried out and continued.
 But the Congress wants Muscle Shoals, Bould- Dam, the Great Lakes Waterway, large number of ten million-dollar cruisers, real merchant marine, and millions for flood relief.
 Just those few wants ought to keep the peo- pes representatives at Washington talking for some time.

SENATOR REEDS SPEECH AND DEMOCRACY'S OPPORTUNITY.

Senator Reed made a brilliant speech at Se- dalia. one that is comparable with several notable speeches that have been delivered in the past few years by Gov Ritchie of Maryland. It is a speech that ought to induce people of the Middle West to do some serious thinking as Gov Ritchie has caused people of the Atlantic Coast to think Gov Ritchie and Senator Reed have charted the danger spots that lie in the course of the ship of state and have made plain the task of the Demo cratic pilots They show by stubborn facts and indisputable reasoning that the Democratic Party has great opportunity to serve the people of the Nation as it has served them in the past when great captains the bridge

BLASTING SETTLES
HIGHWAY SINKHOLES

A method of settling sink holes
by blasting, which will save the ex-
pense, danger and delay which usual
ly goes with grading through peat
and muck, has been devised by Min
nesota Highway engineers, according
to a bulletin from the department.
On one project near New Brigh-
ton which has been under construc-
ton this summer there were several
short fills across swamps in which
soundings showed that the solid bot
tom was five to thirty feet below the
surface. A grade built on top of this
surface would be subject to settle
ment for several years.
A dump was started out over the
swamp and built from one to six feet
higher than required by the plans.
Then holes were bored through this
solid material thirty feet apart and
each hole loaded with from 80 to $50
pounds of ''40 per cent gelatin" and
four or five holes shot in a string.
The blast pushed the soft material
sideways and the solid material drop
ped down on solid bottom. Some

HIGHWAYS BRING
TOURISTS TO FAIR

Good roads, by bringing long dis
lance tourists to the Minnesota State
Fair, have become very effective
agency in advertising Minnesota.
At the State Fair last week there
were cars from New York, Texas,
California, Saskatchewan, and almost
all the other states and provinces.
Cars from the central western states
were counted by the hundreds. Ten
or fifteen years ago, State Fair visit
ors from other states were a rarity,
except from points close to the Min
nesota line.
Visitors at the fair saw a collec-
ton of the best products of Mime
sofas farms, forest, mines, factories,
and homes. Those who saw these
products at first hand got truer and
more lasting picture of Minnesotas
resources than any indirect method
can give. They will go home and
tell others of the great variety and
quality of foods and other essentials
of life produced in Minnesota.
Many of the out-of-state visitors
at the fair were tourists on the way
back from the Ten Thousand lakes
but hundreds of others had made the
trip specially to see the fair.

PULLETS' WINTER HOME
SHOULD BE MADE READY

With October 1st the official time
for putting the pullets into their
winter quarters there should be no
delay in getting the houses ready.
A fall house cleaning is necessary,
of course. But the houses should
also be checked over carefully to
make sure that faults noticed in
former years are overcome this
year. Many houses are too high.
This fault can be corrected by
means of straw loft at very slight
expense. Perhaps the house is damp.
If so, the ventilation system is made
quate, or perhaps the floor needs at
tention.
Certain definite rules are given
by Cora E. Cooke, poultry specialist
of the Agricultural Extension Ser
vice, University of Minnesota:
l. Do not crowd. Allow three
square feet of floor space per bird
for the light breeds and four square
feet per bird for the dual purpose
breeds. Sell any surplus birds and
give the rest a chance.
2. Be sure the floor is higher than
the ground level. Fill in with gravel.
8. The average height should be
about six feet, or only high enough
to provide comfort for the operator.

times it was necessary to shoot .
second string near the shoulders.
At other places where soil condi-
lions permitted, the blasting was
done before any solid material had
been placed on the grade. Holes were
poked in the peat three feet deep and
foot apart, along the center line,
two sticks of dynamite placed in
each, and long string blasted at one
time. This made trench five or six
feet deep and twenty feet wide at the
top. Further blasting was done
along the shoulders after the fill had
been made, but less powder was
needed.
Besides being cheaper than having
to spend a grading outfit to raise
sinkholes perhaps several times over
several years, there is every indica-
ton that the fills made by this meth
cd are solid enough to carry con-
crete almost any time.

DAIRYMEN SHOULD PLAN
NOW FOR WINTER CARE

The first cool spell-and it's on the
way-should serve as a warning to
owners of dairy herds to get ready
for winter. Production is bound to
fall off in winter unless the cows
are comfortable. Good shelter and
the right kind of feed spell comfort
for the dairy herd and prevent the
cream checks from dwindling.
''The first thing to do in prepar-
ing for winter" says DR.. C. H. Eek
les, chief of the dairy division of the
University of Minnesota, sis to go
over your feed situation. If you
have silage on hand and legume hay
in the barn it will be easy to fix
up suitable grain mixture. If you
have corn and oats or barley you
will not need to patronize the feed
store unless you have some heavy
milking cows to feed. If your cows
are heavy mixers some concentrate
high in protein is needed to balance
the grain ration, and the amount
needed for the winter should be pur-
chased. 1t never pays to half feed
livestock Of any kind.
DO not wait too long in the fall
before beginning to house the cows
at night and even during the day
whenever the weather is bad. / be-
HE that cows suffer more from
cold on the average in November
than during any other month. The
owner likes to keep them out as long
as possible to save labor and possibly
in some states with the idea of saw
ing feed. A cow compelled to stand
out doors in a cold raw wind or
cold rain is in no condition TO make
a profit. She will not hold up in
milk like in May or June because she
is uncomfortable.
Housing fattening animals and
dairy cows is quite a different prop
osition. The fat animal is we'll pro-
tected from the cold and does not
mind it. The COW in milk is not pro-
tected by a layer of fat. She is Civ
ing off fat in place of putting it on.

CIRCULAR ISSUED TO
ADVERTISE 1868 FAIR

The gay posters used to advertise
the 1927 Minnesota state fair THRU
out the state during the summer
have an interesting counterpart in a
Circular" issued by committee Of
the state board of agriculture in 1863
to advertise the fair of that year,
held at Fort Smelling on September
80 and October / and 2. A small
broadside about eight by ten inches
in size and printed in fine italics, the
circular was sent out with the re-
quest "please post up" A copy of it
is now among the Steele papers in the
possession of the Minnesota Histori-
cal society.
There had been no fairs in Mime
sofa for two years, and the commit
tee announced that it was with ''con-
siderable reluctance" that this ex-
hibition was decided upon lowing to
the unsettled condition of national
affairs, as well as to the supposed
failure in crops from the drought"
Nevertheless, every well disposed
man and woman in the state" was
called upon to exhibit some article.
"Never mind the season! Let us
show the world what we can produce
in this state without rain,' said the
Minnesota boosters responsible for
the the circular. In concluding, they
called upon the Ladies, if last, by
no means least" to contribute from
the fruits of their labor to the sue
cess of the exhibition.
AS a result of this advertising,
there were exhibited at the 1868 fair
not only cattle, vegetables, and grain,
but a "Whatnot beautifully furnish
ed" a "well executed picture in need
lie work, on canvass, of Rebecca at
the Well" and elegant combina-
ton specimens of penmanship."

ABOUT 1000 ALIENS
DEPORTED MONTHLY

About 1000 alien immigrants are
deported from the United States
monthly, according to an oral state
ment by the Commissioner General
of immigration, Harry E. Hull. The
reasons for deportation are for sub
versive activities against the Federal
Government, insanity, disease con-
tracted prior to entry and illegal en-
try in the United States. During
the last fiscal year immigration fig
ures of the Department of Labor show
that 1861 were deported from the
United States. Of these 5,464 were
deported for illegal entry; 953 were
criminals; 708 were found unable to
read; 594 because of insanity; and
500 because they were likely to be-
come public charges.
