movie actor demands $1,000 month allmOny.
Seems trifle extravagant even for Hollywood
In Redwood Falls it might even be considered
exorbtant.
Query; where do the political spellbinders
get all the figures they fling at the audience
from the platform-and how does anyone in the
world know whether they are right? Anyway
who remembers them long enough to check up
them?
If New York likes Hoover November 6 as

son Square Gardens October % James R. Shelf
field made a true prophecy when he said "This is
the last time Herbert Hoover, the private cti-
gen. will appear in New York"
1t is quite interesting to know that Martin
County Farmers Club, meeting right under the
nose of Frank A. Day and his Fairmont Sentinel
gave Hoover something more than fifty votes
to Smiths three in a recent straw vote. It ap-
pears that Frank is losing some of his power as
a persuader.
Registration in st. Paul shows an IS percent
increase over the registration of 1924, Duluth 43
percent and Minneapolis AZ percent. Either ST.
Paul was mighty lax in its registration of four
years ago or it is getting out every man and
woman of voting age this year. However that
may be-, St. Paul is avowedly and openly for
Smith and the big vote that will be cast there
gives Hoover supporters something to think
about.
mo paper in the state, big or little,
is doing better work for the St. Lawr-
renee tidewater canal than the Luverne
Herald."-LeSueur News-Herald.
No citizen of the state is doing better work
both as private citizen and as a newspaper
writer than is Mabe Moreaux, the editor of the
Herald. When the Northwest begins to reap the
benefits of that waterway it will begin to appre-
ciate some of the things which Mabe has made
possible through his devoted and unselfish inter-
est to mighty cause
Having soul for the better things Of
life is quite different from having an
appetite for them. Many man who

If blondes have such ravenous appe-

One might think from all the talk there is |
this year about "live" issues that everyone
twenty-one years of age would be rush |
ing madly to the polls the morning of Novem-
Der 6. Maybe they will-we hope so-but they
never have in the past. This country has seldom
used more than half of its normal voting
strength even at those times in the past when
issues have been just vital and feelings have
run just high We hope are all wrong
but somehow we can't help but feel that it is 60

Hollandale, the little section of drained
land on which thrifty Hollanders settled few
years ago to show Americans what can be done
with waste" land, has shipped $50 carloads of
onions at an average price of $500 car and has
$50 carloads more that sold at a higher rate
1t has been good year there in spite of the low
price of potatoes which also big crop. And
there is little need to fear that the onion market
will become saturated-their cultivation means
too much hard plain land odorous) work for the
average American farmer. But the crop offers
possibilities for one who knows how to raise it
and is fairly anxious to work Incidentally the Hol
landale system of cooperative marketing has
possibilities for adoption, also.
