fore Mr.. Him. could escape was
badly bruised about the body, his
right arm injured and big cash
slit in his shoulder. His back was
also strained and he was badly
hurt about the kidneys. Except
for the fact that his two sons came
into the barn at the critical mo-
ment and had with them dog

probable that Mr.. HIM would
have been killed. As it is he will
be laid up considerable time and
it will be number of weeks be

Man Who Deserts Wife
Held Liable By Court
County May Collect for Support
Advanced-Brown County
Beneficiary

A county, which furnishes neces-
sary support to woman deserted
by her husband, may recover from
the husband, the Minnesota SUI
preme court held, Friday, in an ac-
ton taken in connection with a
martial disruption of more than
20 years ago.
In 1907, Henry Siebert, Jr., hus-
band of Mrs. Christina Siebert, left
her alone in her Brown county
home. She was then so years old.
In 1928 she became destitute and
the county furnished her support
totaling $244, until her death at
the age of 70, March 8, 1927.
Then the county, having ascer-
tanned to its own satisfaction that
her husband had been in position
to support her all these years, in
stituted suit to recover the amount
However the husband, through his
attorneys, demurred to the suit,
alleging that it was not a cause
for action, which Judge A. B.
Gislason in Brown county district
court sustained.
In its decision, the high court re-
verses Judge Gislason, holding that
the county is entitled to recover
for necessaries furnished the wife
in the period of his desertion.
"The duty of the husband to
support his wife is illustrated in
many cases sustaining a cause of
action in favor of one who furn-
ishes the support which the hus-
band has failed to give" says the
opinion written by Justice Homer
Dibell.
From 1923 to 1927 the plaintiff
county furnished Mrs. Siebert nee
essary means of subsistence of the
reasonable value of S244. "The
defendant at all times was of suf-
ficient financial responsibility to
support his wife and without cause
refused" SO states the opinion.
The action was to recover the 1914.

Caution In Making Left
Turns Urged by Babcock
Right Turns, Made the Wrong
Way, Also Cause Many Ser
ious Accidents

Be careful in making left
turns! This warning cannot be
sounded too often, says bulletin
from the State Highway depart
ment. Carelessness in making left
turns leads too many serious acct
dents, Right turns, If not made the
right way, may also lead to disast-
er.
The state law prov ies that a
person making a left turn shall
approach the intersection in tie
lane nearest the center and shall
extend his arm or give some ether
clear signal showing his intention
to turn. A driver intending %
turn right shall approaci the inter
section in the lane nearest the
rigks side of the road and keep as
close to the right as possible.
In spite of this law, which is the
universal rule all over the United
States, and one of the most i'm
portant rules Of the road, it is
common to see drivers make a wide
sweep to the left before turning
right, or make a long curve to the
right before turning left. On city
streets turns made the wrong way
not only lead to accidents but they
add to the congestion at busy
crossings. On country highways
turns wrongly made are much
more dangerous, because approach
ing drivers are likely to be COM
ing at high speed.
Some drivers may make the ex-
cuse that the side road or driveway
into which they are turning is not
wide enough to permit making the
turn in the manner provided by
law.
In such cases the driver should
slow up, give clear signal show
ing his intention to turn, or look
both ways to see that there are nc
machines approaching before he
makes the turn.
