HOW TO LAUNDER A
WOODEN SWEATER

Woolens may be successfully wash
ed if great care is taken in the pro-
cess. Measure the sweater before
washing. Place it in lukewarm water
in which a mild soap has been dissolv-
ed. Hard water may be softened by
adding borax or ammonia. Clean
the garment by squeezing water
through it. Squeeze out all the water
possible and rinse in lukewarm water.
A small amount of soap may be used
in the rinse water to keep the mater
ial from becoming harsh and stiff.
Wringirg and rubbing will cause
shrinking and mating of the mater
ial.
Re-measure and carefully shape
sweater to conform to the former
measurements. Place the sweater on
a fiat surface in room of ordinary
temperature to dry. It may be dried
out-of-doors in warm weather. White
woolens turn yellow if subjected to
strong sunlight. Too hot or too cold
temperatures cause the wool material
to become harsh and stiff.

MULCH PAPER TO
BE TRIED OUT

Mulch paper has been extensively
advertised throughout the country as
a means by which so-called "cultivat-
ed' crops may be cared for without
cultivation and by being covered with
the mulch paper keep down the weeds,
preserve moisture, etc.
The American Farm Bureau does
not wish to place its stamp of ap-
proval on the use of mulch paper
without further trials proving its
value. For trial purposes they have
secured large quantity of this from
a big paper concern, and to every
county throughout the United States
enough paper for carefully conducted
trials will be supplied. Enough pa
per is being sent to three farmers
and gardeners in Redwood County to
make effective trials which viii be
carefully checked.
These trials will be conducted with
C. E. Cobleigh, o. j. Bollum, and L.
P. Winter. Anyone interested in OBJ
serving this work may see these trial
plots on various crops, vegetables
and fruits during the summer months.

CAMPAIGN STARTS
TO ADVERTISE STATE
Citizens Urged to Cooperate in
Raising Funds for Adver-
Using Minnesota.

Citizens of Minnesota are being
asked to contribute to the advertising
and publicity campaign of the Ten
Thousand Lakes-Greater Minnesota
Association during the week begin
ming May which has been designat-
ed by proclamation of Governor Theo-
dore Christensen as Greater Mimi
esota Week"
The campaign will be directed in
Redwood Falls by Louis Sommers,
who has been named as chairman by
Roy E. Dunn of Pelican Rapids, presi-
dent of the Ten Thousand Lakes
Greater Minnesota Association. This
year according to Mr.. Dunn, the As
ISOLATION is conducting program de-
voted equally to attracting new cltlz-
ems and tourists. The work OF at
tracing new citizens will comprise
almost exclusively the bringing OF
farmers here from other states. The
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. program is
a result of the merger of the Ten
Thousand Lakes Association and the
Greater Minnesota Association which
took place last fall. Part of the
agreement at that time was that all
funds and activities of the new asso-
citation would be divided equally be-
tween recreation and agriculture.
Mr.. Dunn says that the association
is carrying out that agreement to the
letter; that agriculture advertising
has been placed in farm journals and
newspapers; that billboards advertls-
ing Minnesota as a great agricultural
state are now being erected; that new
and beautiful agriculture literature
is being printed. From agricultural
advertising many hundreds OF IN
uuires for farms have been received
indicating there is a vital need Ioi
immigration work in the state. The
recreational work will be conducted
largely along the same lines as past
years. Magazines and newspapers
with national circulation will be used
The Association will have an exhibit
at the National Outdoor Life EXPOSE.
ton at Chicago. Motion pictures VIII
be used. Newspapers and magazines
articles will be sent out.
Work of the Association has been
endorsed by Governor Theodore Chris
tianson who has proclaimed the week
beginning May as Greater Mime
sofa Week and has urged the citizens
of the state contribute at that time
towards the support of the 1929 actl-
vities.

FRANKLIN FAMILY HAS
NARROW ESCAPE

Mistaking can of gasoline for one
of kerosene in lighting the kitchen
fire early Sunday morning, a fire was
started which came near costing the
Andrew Halvorson family at Frank
lin, their house and home, says the
Franklin Tribune.
Mr.. Halvorson tried to carry the
blazing container outdoors, but was
forced to drop it because of the in
tense heat. The contents of the can,
which proved to be- gasoline, spread
over the kitchen floor, but the fire
was put out when members of the
family used blankets and water to
put out the flames. Only the quick
action of Mr.. Halvorson and other
members of the family saved the
home from complete destruction.

are such critters nevertheless. A
pure white robin was seen at S.

Reliability Of new Ford
as important as beauty, speed,
safety and comfort

You are buying proved performance
when you buy the new Ford. You know
exactly what it will do. There is nothing
of an experiment about it.
Letters from users show a delivered
value far beyond expectations. Almost
without exception they stress reliability.
You sense feeling of sincere pride IN
the oft-repeated phrase 'Let me tell
you what my new Ford did" 50
A well-known tire company, solely to
test tires, drove new Ford more than
10000 miles in six months. Through
out that time, the car was run day and
night, an average of twenty-five hours
out of every twenty-four. The entire
cost of repair parts was only S3S for
the entire 10000 miles.
Another tire company, making
similar test, drove the new Ford more
than $4,000 miles in short period, at
a cost per mile that was fully 500 less
than any figure it had previously known.
One of the first of the new Fords was
driven from Dearborn, Michigan, to
Los Angeles to San Francisco to New
York and back to Dearborn dis
lance of of 1928 mi1es-in twenty-one
days. Through ice and sleet, up noun
tain peaks, through desert sands, over
macadam and deeply rutted dirt roads,
it travelled at an average speed of 400
miles an hour.
Practically year of average driving
was done in three weeks, yet the entire
trip was made without the need of
single major adjustment or repair.
Another new Ford, as test of hill
climbing, was driven from San Bernar-
dino, California, over the National Old
Trails and Swartout Valley Highway,
to the Big Pines Recreation Camp. The
entire 36.2 miles were made in high

Senate Dry and Wet Leaders
viii Abandon Resolutions
Asking Prohibition Inquiry
TO EXAMINE v0LSTEAD LAW
To Determine It Disregard Of

ssrvancs Of Other Laws

Warrington, Jan. l6.-(Ap)-pres-
ident-elect Hoover is to appoint spe-
cial commission soon after March 4
to investigate prohibition and general
law violations - well as court pro-
cedure and to make recommendations
looking to improvement Of the whole
situation.
This developed after q conference
between Mr.. Hoover and Senators
Jones Of washington and Edge Of
New Jersey, respective leaders Of the
senate dry and wet forces, who ad-
vised the next president Of their de-
cision to abandon their resolutions to
authorize . prohibition inquiry.
The senator's said Mr.. Hoover
agreed with them that legislation was
unnecessary ct this time and that all
that would be required In any event
would be q measure appropriating
money for the expenses Of the COM
mission. This will be offered at the
special session Of the new congress to
be called In the early spring.
The Jones resolution would have
ordered congressional inquiry while
that by Senator Edge would have d.
rected the president to appoint q
commission to conduct the investiga-
ton.
enforcement conditions will be the
fundamental basis Of the presidential
commissions inquiry but the presi-
dent-elect has stalled that the investi-
cation should extend the Volstead
law itself 20 as to determine whether
alleged abuses in enforcement are In
herent In the act.
Whether disregard Of the dry lew
In some sections is hurting the OBJ
servance Of other laws would be an
other concern Of the commission, as
would the necessity for setting up
additional court machinery to take
care Of dry law violations and relieve
congeslon.

not clear that the special commission
