STATE TRAFFIC SQUAD
URGED AS SAFETY AID

A state traffic patrol, as a means
of curbing reckless driving and re-
ducing accidents, will be recommend
ed to the next legislature by c. M.
Babcock, commissioner of highways.
Bills creating traffic patrol have
been before previous sessions but
have failed by small margins.
"a state traffic patrol is the only
way we can get uniform enforce
ment of the traffic laws" says Mr..
Babcock in a statement sent to The
Gazette. Several counties have some
excellent traffic officers. The visi-
BILE presence Of a uniformed patrol
man on the highway has very
marked effect on reckless drivers.
But it is noticeable that many who
drive carefully on road where they
know they may meet an officer, for
get their caution when they cross
the line into county f~'ing no Of
ficers. Arrests made by officers
hidden by the roadside have little If
any more effect than no enforce
ment at all.
eff there were just small num-
Der of uniformed state patrol off,
GERS, scattered over the state high
ways, and not limited by county
lines, it would have very marked
effect in curbing reckless drivers.
Such a force should consist of train
ed, courteous and carefully selected
men. The aim should be to prevent
accident and keep traffic moving.
There should be no arrests for harm
less technical violations of the traf-
fic law, but vigorous action against
the comparatively small number OF
drivers who endanger all others US
ing the highways.
"a traffic patrol should have no
other duties than enforcing the traf-
fic laws and protecting the high
ways. Protection of the highways
against damage by overlooking would
probably save enough in highway
maintenance to pay the whole cost OF
a state patrol.
"Until such a patrol can be Gre
ated, I hope that every driver and
every pedestrian will exercise the ut
most caution, not only to obey the
law but to protect himself against
the few who are reckless. There has
been an unusual number of accidents
during the past month and with the
heavy traffic we are likely to have
during state fair week, it is neces-
sary that every precaution be taken
to prevent accidents.
Newspapers, civic organizations
and public spirited citizens should
give accident prevention serious at
tention. 1 also hope that county and
municipal officials will make every
possible effort to curb dangerous
driving. Sporadic drives and whole
sale arrests for technical violations
of the traffic law are of doubtful
value, but no mercy should be shown
the man who wilfully endangers the
lives of others on the highway"

An important preventive measure
in the control of the flag-smut dis
ease on wheat is the sowing of in
tested fields to other crops the fol-
lowing year unless a resistant wheat
is used, as flag-smut spores easily
survive in the soil from harvest to
seeding time and are present to in
fest fall-sown wheat. The continu-
Gus growing Of susceptible wheat on
infested land may result in an in
crease of the disease. Since flag
smut affects only wheat, other crops
may be safely grown in the rotation.
Any wheat crop residues or material
that may contain flag-smut spores,
such as straw, manure, or a straw
mulch on potatoes, may be a source
of infestation if applied to the land.
Where such flag-smut infested resi-
dues are used, some other crop than
wheat should be grown.

TRUCKING LIVESTOCK
TO TERMINAL MARKET
SHOWS RAPID GROWTH

A total of 1896 truck loads of
livestock were hauled over the Min
nesota highways direct from the
farms to South st. Paul in the first
eight months of 1928. This 9,110
more loads than in the same months
in 1927, an increase of "a percent.
The rapid growth of direct farm-to-
terminal-market hauling has made it
necessary to rebuild the truck un-
loading chutes several times in the
last few years.
Hauling stock from farm to mar
ket has grown in POPULARITY since the
trunk highway plan started gener-
al improvement of roads in Mime
sofa. While 60 percent of the truck
loads come distances of less than so
miles, many come 100 miles or more.
Recently one truck load of hogs came
44O miles.

MOTORISTS, CHILDREN
URGED TO BE CAUTIOUS

Now that most of the school in
Redwood county are in full swing,
with others opening in week or two,
it is well for car-owners, parents
and teachers to give thought to the
safety of school children.
Car owners should be careful in
passing schools or indriving where
children are going to or from school.
A state law specifically requires that
they slow down when passing a
school during the hours when chill
dren are coming or going, or at re-
cess time.
Parents and teachers can help by
urging children not to play on motor
travelled roads or streets, to be care
full in crossing, and to walk on the
left side when walking on highways.
Children should also be cautioned
against soliciting rides from stran-
gers. The traffic law makes it a
misdemeanor to solicit rides while
standing in the travelled portion of
any thoroughfare.
They should also be cautioned
against hitching or jumping on or in
to any moving vehicle, or getting in
to any vehicle without the owners
consent. Violation Of any of these
rules frequently leads to accidents.

The immunization of sucking pigs
for hog cholera has much to recon-
mend it in the way of decreased
cost and increased protection, accord
ing to animal industry specialists of
the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
By immunizing early, less serum is
required and the pigs are protected
sooner, and since the successful i'm
munization of sucking pigs does not
necessitate the reduction of feed, it
is possible that this may enable the
farmer to market the pigs somewhat
earlier than if the immunization
were carried out after weaving. If
young pigs receive the serum-virus
treatment, the immunity as rule is
lasting; only an exceptional herd or
individual will contract cholera. In
giving this treatment to young pigs,
it is most important to be sure that
they are in good health at the time
of treatment.

MORGAN BUSINESS MEN
URGE ROAD IMPROVEMENT

A delegation of Morgan business
men appeared before the board OF
Redwood county commissioners at
their session last week and urged
that the south state road between
Morgan and Wayburne crossing be
improved and graveled and also that
the mile west to the Wayburne sta
ton, used by the star mail route, be
regraveled. -.
The delegation alleged that this
stretch of road is not only thinly
graveled, but that it is entirely too
low-so low in places that the road
is even lower than the surrounding
land. 1t is moreover. the heaviest
travelled road leading into Morgan,
carving all of the traffic to points on
T n. No. Z. The delegation evil
IDENTIFY made a favorable impression
ON the board, as a committee was ap-
pointed to look over the situation.

CRAB GRASS CONTROL
NO TASK FOR WEAkLING

Men who take pride in their lawn
and other home surroundings have
just been fighting another round
with Old Man Crab Grass. This is an
annual brought from Europe. 1t is
so adaptable that it has about all
the world for its range. It's purplish
colored Towering heads, giving the
lawn an unsightly, ragged appear
an, make their debut in this latitude
in August.
No one likes crab grass, but it per-
sists for all that and bobs up serene
ly about the middle of June every
year. It's roots are tenacious and
stubborn and it's stems and heads
often lie so close to the ground that
they are frequently overlooked. In
this way seed is matured and falls
upon the soil to renew the plant the
following season even though the
prideful home owner has labored val
iantly to drive it out.
Give it a foothold, yes, even a
toehold, and crab grass will gradually
crown out the favored standard
grasses of the region. One good way
to fight it is to have such a thick
stand of the desirable grasses and
clovers before the first of July that
it will have little or no chance to
start. Production of seed can be
stopped by adjusting the mower to
cut close to the ground and raking
and reraking the lawn and moving
again and again to get all the low ly-
ing stems and seed ends.
On top of this, to do a really good
job, all clippings of crab grass should
be caught in a grass catcher and de-
stroyed. The man who subdues this
pest in fair stand up and fight has
a real achievement to his credit.

FIRE ENDANCERS
FAIRFAX STORE
Two Cars Burn in Basement !;
Store Is Saved by Fire Boys
Prompt Action

What looked at one time as if it
might prove to be very destructive
fire broke out in the basement of the
Fairfax Hardware Co.'s store on
East Main street Thursday evening
of last week. Prompt response to
the fire alarm and efficient action
by the fire department saved the
building and stock.
The fire originated in one of two
cars stored in the front part of the
basement of the building and when
first discovered smoke and flames
were pouring out of south side
window Both cars were burning.
Equipped with gas masks the fire
men fought the fire valiantly, the
dence smoke making it especially
hard to direct the streams OF water
to the right place. 1t proved to be
a stubborn blaze but was finally over
come.
Fortunately by the use of two
streams of water the fire was not al
lowed to get beyond the basement
and no water was used in the sales
room. The loss was thus greatly
lessened. Smoke, however, did con-
siderable damage to the stock, and
the ceiling and walls were blackened.
E. H. Brown, manager of the COM
pany, informs The Journal that the
loss was fully covered by insurance
which has already been adjusted.

Ford coach were very badly damaged,
possibly beyond repair.-Fairfax
