Marketing Condition Of
Wheat Very Important
Minnesota Wheat Pool President
Makes Timely Suggestions for
Proper Care of Crop

The Northwest has an unusual
ly good quality small grain
crop this year, according to Geo.
M. johnson, President of the Min
nesota Wheat Growers, and lead
ing farmer of Elbow Lake, Mime
sofa.
'sBut along with this good CROP"
said Mr.. Johnson, "the farmer
needs to watch the marketing end.
This year wheat especially ripened
unevenly. Much of it was cut on
the green side. Some of it was
and is being threshed before the
moisture content of the kernel was
below the danger point. Wheat
with too much moisture is likely to
heat, and if not cared for, will bin
burn"
wheat with even less than this
amount of moisture goes through
what we farmers call a Sweat
Whether ones wheat is marketed
direct from the machine or is de-
livered from the bin during the
sweat period, the surplus moisture
shows up in the lowering of the
protein test upon which the millers
buy their hard spring wheat. Since
the premium on fifteen percent
protein is now ranging as high as
forty cents per bushel, or about
eight cents for each percent over
normal, the effect of a cut in pro-
tein test due to moisture is mighty
hard on the farmers pocketbook. "
'Here are few suggestions:
1. Don't thresh your grain until
it is dry.
2. If it is damp when thresh-
ed, put ventilators made out of
boards nailed together through the
grain in the bin.
8. Don't market until your grain
is fbone-dry'."

signs or posters advertising any
body or anything may be put up
on the right-of-way of any state or
local highway. The State highway
department will take down any
signs erected on the state high
ways, and many counties are en-
forcing the law strictly on the
county highways. The state traffdc
act also prohibits placing any
signs or stickers on the windshield,
rear window or front side windows
of any automobile. This was en-
acted because the old practice OF
putting candidates pictures and
other advertising matter in the
car windows obscured the vision
and caused accidents.

Work Started on Recreation
Book for 1929 by Secretary
10, 900 Lakes Association Sending
Out QUESTIONABLE for Material
to be Used

Questionaires are being sent to
towns throughout the state by the
Ten Thousand Lakes Association
for information to be included in
the 1929 edition of Recreation

attractions of the state as well as
to tell the industrial and agricul-
tural opportunities of the various
communities.
Every city and village in the
state with 500 or more population
will receive a QUESTIONABLE which
when filled out and returned will
give the Lakes association the in
formation needed for the booklet.
The questionnaires will be sent

communities in getting their ques-
ltionaires back in 1928 edition was

A STRENUOUS CAMPAIGN

Now that the campaign is warm
ing up, it may be as good a time as
any to republish the experience Of
an Arkansas candidate for sheriff
which has been "going the rounds
of the press" for several years.
The story has gathered various
and sundry additions in it's march
down the corridors of time, the lat
est version being as follows:

Reindeer meat is also trans ported on the commercial steamers "Siera," a freighter of 2,00O capa- city, and the "VictOria," with cold storage space for 2,000 carcasses, usually making three voyages to Seattle during the open season of navigation.

About two thirds of the 5OO,OON o1 the reindeer in Alaska are the pro- pcrty of the native ESkimOs, and ships now are plying regularly out of Alaskan ports with cargoes of rein deer meat. The full text of the state ment follows:

 The Department of the Interior which has nurtured this industry re- ports that about two thirds of the half million reindeer in Alaska are the porperty of the native EskimOa The reindeer industry is already one of the greatest in Alaska, and it is rapidly increasing.
 A large part of the reindeer meat that is being shipped out of Alaska is owned by an incorporated com pany whose headquarters are at Nome.

THE REAL DISCOVERY OF THE
 kLGNDIhE

The story of the discovery of the Kiondike has been told by Alaskans bEt never as it really happened. Fl so far as the mild controversy has been waged as to whether CarmacE O. Henderson discovered the Klon- d.ke we assert that neither one o, those men discovered the Klondike. inc ALASKAN claims that the or i;1.nal discoverers of the Klondike Were Indians-'"Tagis Charley and ''Sk0Okum" Jim.
 George Carmac1 was "siwash- eG' piece of fotsam and jetsum, drifting through Alaska, prospect ing, trapping, living off the land an,l the Indians He was a white man turned back to the lowest type of hunanity Living with an Indian -"Kate''-tribal sister Of SNookum Jim and Tagish, he father ed her children; starved with he" in the hills and lived off the hunt ing skill of her "brothers."
 Jhe Indians themselves looked )on Carmack with contempt; as d poor piece of liquor soaked drift wood, without shame, credit or starding where he was known among white men or Indian. He and work were on anything but friendly terms.

MORON ATTACK
R0USES POLICE
$4,000 Rewards Posted for Ar
rest of Women AssaulterS
Near Chicago

Chicago, Nov. IL. - (AP) = Mys-
erious and brutal attacks upon
women, each bearing evidence of
having been perpetrated by a
moron, have caused the north shore
suburban section to take course of
vigorous action.
A special meeting of Lake Forest
aldermen yesterday voted to post a
$4,000 for the arrest and conviction
of the person and persons who as
saulted Miss Edna Kelley, 23-ycar-
old kindergarten teacher, in Lake
Forest Saturday night. Her skull
was fractured. An additional $1,000
was promised by Lake county SUPER
visors.
In Highland Park and Highwood
several women have reported their
fear of men who approached them
Saturday night, and citizens of the
three communities united in de-
manding that stern measures be
taken.
Lake Bluff, another North Shore
suburb, still is mystified by the case
of Miss Elfrieda Knaak, burned so
severely in the furnace room of the
Lake Bluff police station that she
died. Although a coroner's jury
found she died of burns self inflict-
ed, county authorities are continuing
their investigation on the theory a
second person had part in the mys-
sterious affair.
