Billy said nothing about his pain.
With the dollar his father gave him,

swimming, and had two ice cream
cones and a chocolate bar. He would
have been entirely happy except for
the persistent pal.

fur scarf will be most appropriate One
piece fox scarfs are sure to be in good
style. and there is pretty good reason
to believe that lined stoles of fiat furs
also will be worn.
For sports and informal outdoor wear
two-piece suits will surely be good, and
am convinced that the lightweight
WOODEN or siik-and-wool sports sweater
skirt will be smart with these suits. For
sports wear I feel sure the skirt with
yoke buttoning at the top will still be
good, and this means that the light

In tuck-in manner.

Continued from Page -


of congress toward the government
employees. Approximately 10000
workers will be benefited by the en-
actment of the Welch bill carrying in
creases amounting to $1S,OOO,0OO annu-
ally. A bill sponsored by Senator La
Toilette has passed the senate giving
the hundreds of thousands of postal
workers half day on Saturday all
the year instead of only during the
summer months. There is another
bill which passed the senate giving
those in the postal service an in
crease of 10 per cent for night work.
There are other measures which have
passed at this session designed to in
crease the salaries of government
workers. The legislator can well af-
ford to open up the purse strings be-
cause it is the taxpayer who has to
pay the bill in higher postage rates
and personal taxes.
Assured OF Jobs.
Impartial wage studies show that
the government workers have the ad
vantage over those in private indus
try because they are always assured
of their jobs and are not affected by
Industrial depression which causes
lay offs among private citizens. Aside.
from having an average salary far in
excess of the income of an average
working man, government employees
have what amounts to a two months
vacation as against the two weeks va
the salaried worker. This is COW
cred by a provision which allows
thirty days annual leave and thirty
days sick leave. When the average
workman gets sick he is locked or
loses days pay. The government is
far mere liberal. One of the chief
attractions of government job are
the short hours, approximately six
hours a day. That explains the long
waiting list of applicants DESTROYS of
getting on the government payrolls.

FARM BUREAU PAYING
FOR WHAT 1T GETS is
DECLARATION OF REED

County funds voted to aid agri-
cultural extension work in the var
ious Minnesota counties are not ap-
preparations made to the Farm Blu
reau," declared ]. F. Reed, president
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton, in an interview at st. Paul
last week.
There is misconception in the pub
lie mind on this point that needs to be
cleared up" said Mr.. Reed in this con-
nection. Funds voted by county COM
missioners each year for agricultural
extension work in the various coun-
ties go to the extension division
working under the direction of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture and the State College of Agri-
culture, and not to the Farm Bureau.
This ounty-apprOpriated money is ex-
pended in the interest of every farmer
in the county for the advancement of
agricultural betterment whether he is
a member or not member of the
Farm Bureau.
This appropriation goes in part to
maintain county agent or home
demonstration agent, who are public
officers in the county, whose business
it is to serve all interests in a public
way.
I'm addition to bearing their share
Of the taxes to supply these appro-
priations, Farm Bureau members in
every county are paying SIS per year
membership fees, $3.50 of which, in
Minnesota, is expended for expenses
or salaries of these extension workers
in the counties. The remainder of
the annual dues goes to maintaining
county, state and national Farm Bu-
reau organizations. No public funds
are expended for the Farm Bureau,
Farm Bureau members are paying for
what they are getting"

The Pine County Fair Association
has under consideration plans for
celebrating July 4th at the fair
grounds. While a definite decision
has not been made by the fair board,
present indications are that cele-

grounds.
The fair board is now working on
plans for new exhibition building,
to be constructed this year, and the
celebration will undoubtedly be held
to help raise money for the new
building.
Tentative plans for the celebration
include a good racing program in the
afternoon with a ball game, free acts
and other entertainment. A night
show will probably be held also.

FIGHT TO RAISE
FARM TARIFFS
Anticipation of McNary Bill Veto
BY Coolidge Inspires Emer-
gency Move.

Washington-The drive to obtain
enactment Of an emergency farm
tariff bill in the present session OF
congress, to substitute for the Nc.
Nary-Haugen formula of farm relief
which 1t is expected the President will
veto, was opened formally.
The legislative committee of the CO.
operative organizations submitted a
draft Of their resolutions. together
with covering letter, and accom-
panied by proposed changes in sched.
ules, to every member of congress.
The committee also held a protract-
ed session with Chairman Hawley of
the ways and means committee. No
definite conclusions were reached, al
though the farm groups said they
thought they detected disposition to
try the tariff bars, even If they were
not to be raised.
Minnesotans are prominently iden-
titled with the movement in the per.
sons of John Brand of the Land O.
Lakes Creamery Co.; Fred Roy of the
same organization, and ]. S. Mont
gomery Of South st. Paul, head of the
Livestock Cooperative association.
While not getting back of the Ship
stead amendment to the revenue bill,
the co-operatives are giving it their
sympathetic support and are hopeful
that the Shipstead amendment will be
adopted. This would give them an op-
portunity to obtain a hearing, and
their backing of the move to increase
the tariff duties on farm products
gives added strength to the Shipstead
amendment.
