MISS BURMEISTER
GETS PROMOTION
Letter From Japan Tells of
New Work of Redwood
Falls Girl

In her most recent letter to her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A. C. Burmeis-
ter, Miss Margaret Burmeister tells
of experiences at conference in
Japan, where she has been for the
past two and one-haf years on mis-
sionary work. The letter was writ
ten on train from Moji to Kuma-
mato, and dated January II, 1929; it
follows:
"Well, here am on my home. I've
been gone long time and I'll be glad
to get back. I'm rather sick of rid
ing trains, and l am also getting a
cold; it's just from train and too
much food, etc., but it is never-the-
less.
"To tell you the news first. I stay
in Kumamoto and Carolyn goes to
Fukouka in September, when one OF
the new girls, Ella Gerrish of Boston,
comes to live with me. l become the
senior missionary in Kumamoto sta
ton, with three country places and
three kindergartens and everything.
l was simply surprised, to say the
least. 1 should not have been sur
prised to have been moved myself, but
to have Carolyn moved simply f1oored
me. Miss Wythe of Fukouka goes
home in April and the property prob
lem is coming up there again (this is
the Evangelistic work. so, as Carolyn
knows the situation up there and has
only year left before furlough any
way, they decided to put her up there.

ing with this move. How little we
know what will happen. If anyone
had told me that after 21a years in
Japan / would be left in charge of
an Evangelistic station, I'd have said
they were crazy, but l guess it can
be done. 1t is the highest compli-
ment that they could pay me. This
makes me member of the Reference
Committee and really in on the in
side dope.
"The Conference was very good,
the only objection 1 had was that
Bishop Baker was not with us enough,
as the Mems Board met at the same
time. Mrs. Baker presided for us and
did it beautifully; she certainly is
very capable and so charming; every
one, Japanese and foreigners are
crazy over her. I'll try to find you a
program so you can see the problems
that were discussed.

KATO ASKS CLACUE
FOR HIGHER RATES
Maintenance of Federal Prison
ers Costs City Money, Say
Blue Earth Co. Board

In an attempt to obtain from the
federal government higher per diem
fee for maintenance of federal pri-
soners in the county Jail, the Blue
Earth County Board of Commission
ers some time ago sought aid of Con-
gressman Frank B. Clague. Ac-
cording to the present rates, seventy
cents per day is paid to the county
for each federal prisoner imprisoned
here in the Jail.
This sum, it is said, is sufficient
to meet all costs with the exception
of upkeep of the Jail, and the pre-
sent work is directed to receive fed
eral revenue for this purpose.
Clague consented to aid in raising
the rate, according to c. L. Kennedy,
clerk of the Blue Earth county board.
Watonwan county, which has no
Jail, sends its prisoners to Mankato,
one dollar per day per prisoner, which
is sufficient to maintain each prison
er and meet share of the upkeep OF
the Jail, being paid.
1t is the aim of the board to obtain
from the federal government sum
comparable to that paid by Waton-
wan county.

federal prisoner jailed is distinct
loss to the community. For each
county prisoner, rs cents per day is

BATTLE Lines ARE
DRAWN BY SOLONS
The Fight Between the Big
Three and Senate Leaders
is Well Under Way
By Martin w. Odland

Special to The Gazette.
st. Paul, Feb. 5.-In the first of my
series of legislative letters predicted
that this session of the legislature
would be fraught with political signi-
ficance-that the fortunes of num-
ber of aspiring politicians of the state
would be affected by the course of
events in st. Paul this winter. 1t is
now apparent that my prediction will
come true. During the past week de-
velopments highly significant from a
political standpoint have followed in
quick succession. Lines of battle have
been drawn.
Chief among the actors, strategists,
statesmen, politicians, field marshalls
call them what you willis A. j.
Rockne, the veteran legislator from
Zumbrota.
Many believed that Rockne's pres
tige had suffered on account of his
unimpressive showing in the sena-
torial primary of 1928, and predicted
that he wouldn't WELD great influence
in the capitol this winter. But they
were poor prophets. When Rockne
went about the state extending the
glad hand and all that, he was out OF
his element, for he isn't smooth
political artist, dispenser OF per-
sonal magnetism; and the speeches
of expediency which he delivered
lacked punch and the ring of sincerity.
But in the senate and the senate
finance committee, of which he has
been chairman these many years, the
lion is in his natural habit. There
he is formidable, dangerous, and ne
stands today, as in former sessions,
the biggest man in the legislature. By
a series of mastery strokes, he has
put the Big Three on the defensive
and Governor Christianson's reorgan-
ization scheme now faces storm OF
popular disapproval. When Rockne
obtained from probate judges all over
Minnesota statements to the effect
that imbeciles and other unfortunates
committed to state institutions from
one to three years ago are still ex-
cluded from those Institutions for
lack of room or the means of caring
for them, and when the senator drew
from members of the state board of

FARIBOARD BOOKS
MAMMOTH CIRCUS
3-Ring Circus to Furnish Free
Acts at Redwood County
Fair i'm 1929

AS an added attraction that will
fill in as the free acts, the Redwood
County Fair Association has booked
the mammoth Seils-Sterling Circus
for the dates of Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday, September
%, "a, 25 and 26. The Board was
careful in making the purchase of
this show, and in doing so have
booked one of the leading attractions
that can be secured.
The circus will show its acts both
in the afternoon and evening. In the
afternoon there will be many acts
from the Side Show, while in the
evening the main show will be pre-
sented in front of the grand stand
1000 seats will be placed across the
race track at each end of the grand
stand to make room for the evening
crowds. There will be no additional
charge made, except the regular grand
stand price.
Among the many different attrac-
tions will be presented by the Sells
Sterling troupe are the trained Wild
Animal Exhibition, high sommer-
saults, aerial exploits, clowns and
everything that goes to make sue
cessful circus. The acts will be showr
from the three-rings in front of the
grand stand.
On Monday, entry day, there will be
no charge to the fair grounds, al
though on that night there will be the
circus acts in front of the grand
stand. This will be followed by the
dance in the pavilion.
In reducing the fair one day, ths
board has eliminated the last day rusf
which always came on Friday in the
past. With Thursday as the last day
of the Fair, no exhibits will be re
leased until Friday, the entire fail
remaining complete until the day fol
lowing the last day of the Fair.
As has been the habit in the past, {
huge race program will again b
presented.

J. F. Steffl General Store Build
ing Destroyed by Fire
Early This Morning
LOSS ESTIMATED AT $4,000
Origin Unknown; Families Lose
Belongings in Apartments
Above Store

Probably the worst fire that the
village of Clements has ever suffered
broke out in the j. F. Steffl General
Store, early this morning (Wednes-
day., completely destroying the build
ing and a warehouse near the brick
building. The origin of the destruc-
tive blaze is unknown at this time.
The building destroyed was a brick
structure and one of the newest build
ings in Clements.
The fire was discovered at approx
imately 100 o'clock, A. M, and had
gotten such a start that to call for
outside help would have been useless.
The Clements Fire Department did
all that could be done to save the
building and other store buildings IN
in the town section of the village.
Starting either in the basement or
on the first floor, the blaze had gotten
such a start when the Fire Depart
ment had arrived that the efforts Of
the department were confined to keep
ing the blaze from scattering to other
buildings.
The R. Dahms, L. H. Clements and
Max Jensen families occupied the
apartments over the store, losing
everything in the blaze. j. F. Steffl
and Mr.. and Mrs. Clements were in
Minneapolis at the time of the fire
The estimated loss will range be,
tween $35,OO0.00 and $4O,OOO.OO, al
though it was we'll covered by insur-
ance.

FARM SERVICE CO.
ORGANIZED HERE
To Be Called Redwood County
Farm Bureau Service Co..
Will Save Money

The Redwood County Farm Bureau
Service company has recently been
organized by the Farm Bureau Board.
It's purpose is to render service to the
farmers of the county in the handling
of dependable minerals for livestock
and poultry, fertilizer, explosives and
possibly alfalfa seed or other COM
modities that the farmers could
stabilize and service to its members,
which are not now being handled to
advantage to the membership.
Mineral can be secured now at $2.85
per cwt. F. o. B., Ames, Iowa, in any
quantity. Patronage refunds will be
paid back regularly out of the profits.
This is the best mineral obtainable.
The formula is drawn in cooperation
with the University and is guaranteed.
Explosives will be shipped in a
carload. providing orders come in by
March 1, sufficient to warrant the
order. The price is $16.5O per cwt.
f. o. b. Redwood County if orders
for a car are placed. All orders for
explosives should be accompanied by
$1,000 in cash in advance, balance on
delivery. about March Is. if possible.
Checks are payable to the Redwood
County Farm Bureau Service COM
pany. People ordering will be re-
turned money or consulted if car
cannot be obtained. Patronage refund
comes regularly.
Phosphate fertilizer will also be
handled at $55.88 per ton here in Red
wood County in car lots. Forty-six
or lower percent phosphate at lower
cost. Phosphate fertilizer is $2.94
per cwt. or per acre if broadcast on
the land. and one-half that amount II
applied with corn planter attach
ment.
twenty-five dollars per ton or $1.5O
per cwt. must accompany the order,
and the balance on delivery. While
definite arrangements have not been
made, in all probability the Service
Company can also save the farmers
money on alfafa seed and be in a
position to provide more dependable
seed.
