survey shows that thirty percent of the
barns in Wisconsin are equipped with running
water and only fourteen percent of the kitchens.
The Spooner Advocate thinks it must be that

ment it may be because Wisconsin farmers care
more for barn conveniences than for house con-
venience.
The turkey is coming into his own for
sideration as a possible farm CROP" Present
prices paid for this holiday bird makes it almost
prohibitive for the average American family.
Hard to raise and ornery all through his short
life, the turkey is still something the thoughtful

If nature, all unaided by mortal man, turns
perfectly good sweetened grape into a superior
quality of wine can the bother be blamed; who
shall pay the fine; how shall Judge set about
collecting a fine from nature? These are the
questions prohibition officers in Florida are
trying to solve. Florida grape juice is so very
apt to turn to wine without any persuasion ex-
cept that of the wonderful Florida climate.

Town Talker was going to write wise article

down" good and plenty with the darned disease.
Now she's wiser than she was-too wise to try
to give any advice. If it gets you, you are just

the 1929 automobile license tags will go
on sale January l. He issues also the

license plates early. Those who re-
member the crowds waiting in line at the
local bureau during final days of grace
last year will consider this a wise and
timely warning Free Press.

There is little doubt that the 1929 session
of the legislature will give considerable time to
the passing of law requiring the licensing of
every automobile driver in the state. So it is
now time to begin to brush up-to find out what
makes the differential different, why you can't
go into reverse and high all at the same moment
and how to apologize to the driver Of the truck
that puts two crimps into your fender, borrows

Aid in locating every crippled child and adj
ult in the state will be asked of the next egsla-
ture by the Minnesota Association for Crippled
Children. A provision whereby a census of the
physically handicapped population may be taken
at the same time other censuses are taken is one

ate and authentic survey minimum of expense.
The Association is not seeking this information
for sentimental reasons but in order to further
the work of salvaging these handicapped ones
aiding them to become so fit physically that
they can support themselves instead of becoming
economically dependent The legislature will be

So wise to consider we'll an organization which
has for its aim the helping of people to help
themselves instead of becoming an added burden
on the tax payer.
Herb Hotaling and Carl Eastwood are scrap
ping little bit over whether or not Frank
Clague is the biggest man in the national House
of Representatives The boys won't ever come
to a decision in the matter of course but its in

Congressman Clague is to be congratu-

Blue Earth county, his former home,

practically 5000 votes. Mr.. Clague is
without doubt Mnnesota's strongest
