120, GOO JAPANESE LEAVE
HOMELAND IN 20 YEARS

During the last 20 years the number
OF Japanese to go abroad as emigrants
reached 10000 and the number each
year Is increasing steadily, recent gov
eminent figures show. About 10000
are expected to leave the country this
year.
Brazil heads the list Of the countries
Of destination, large proportion Of the
emigrants going there for work on the
coffee plantations or to take UP land
offered at reasonable terms. The
Philippine Islands are another goal for
many Japanese. Other popular destina-
tions are the. South Seas, the East
Indies, Peru and Central American
countries.
During the 20-year period IL japanese
went to Guam and to Borneo. Spe-
cially incorporated companies make it
their business to encourage emigration,
arranging to send the settlers and often
lending them enough money to start
working their land. These companies
are in close contact with the shipping
concerns, which make large profits
transporting emigrants to various coun-
tries bordering on the Pacific.

completion Of the investigation. AS
this witness is not expected to return
until after october /, Bride said he
probably will not complete his renewed
inquiry for two weeks.
The investigation was started several
months ago following an announcement
that d. A. Pearson of New York had
acquired approximately 10000 of the
10000 outstanding shares of Gas Co
financiers. In the early stages of the
inquiry 1t was revealed chat the new
owners had organized the Seaboard
Investment Trust for the purpose OF
holding the stock. Through its repre-.
sentatives the trust insisted that the
transfer had not been in violation OF

outfit back from Lamberton, where he
sawed $4,000, including some oak, elm

of logs were cottonwoods. Mr.. Sch

JAIL BIRD ESCAPED
FROM BROWN co. JAIL

Francis LeRoyce Ikiman, the nine
teen-year-oId youth, who was arrest
ed at New Ulm on charge of steal
ing the Chrysler sedan belonging to
Philip Ziese of near that city, broke
Jail last Tuesday night and stealing
a car from Armin E. Blauert of Way
side, Wis.,, who is visiting in New
Ulm, made his getaway. The thief
gained his freedom from the Brown
county Jail, through a narrow aper-
ture created by the removing of a
metal ventilator from the bastile
wall. Sheriff John j. Reitter failed
to hear Ikiman at work due to the
electrical storm which visited this
section that night, and was unaware
of what happened until the following
morning.
The steam radiators in the cell
chamber are not fastened to the wall;
merely set up and leaning against it.
Without great difficulty, it is believed
Ikiman was able to tear the radiator
along he south wall loose from it's
connections, and the rest was easy.
The ventilator readily yielded, and
he pushed it out, after carefully sus-
pending it on a strip of bed blanket
so that he might lower it to the GEM
emit walk without making a noise.
Ikiman had been sentenced by Judge
Emerson, in district court to serve not
to exceed two years at the state re-
formatory at ST. Cloud.-Springfield

STUDY PARTRIDGE
AT UNIVERSITY
Sporting Arms Institute Gives
Money for Investigation of
Ruled Grouse Cycles

Under a cooperative agreement
between the University of Minnesota,
the bureau of biological survey of the
United States department of argicul-
ture and the Sporting Arms and Am
munition Manufacturers institute,
Minnesota is to become the home Of
an important study of the life and
habits of the ruffed grouse, one OF
the most famous of American game
birds.
The grouse, known throughout
northern Minnesota as the part
ridge" is now near the bottom of one
of the marked population cycles
through which it passes, ranging from
very numerous to very scarce. Vari-
Gus theories have been advanced to
explain the rise and fall of its num-
bers, one of which is that the bird
population is decimated by tularemia,
the rabbit disease.
According to DR.. R. N. Chapman,
professor of economy zoology at the
University of Minnesota, no complete
explanation of the grouse population
cycle has ever been discovered. This
is the problem on which the universe
ty is to work, using $4,000 year for
three years given by the soprting
arms institute and receiving cooper
alton from the bureau of biological
survey.
A research worker will be employ
ed on the task and will carry forward
his work under the directi on of DR.
Chapman.
The potential rate of reproduction
of the ruffed grouse under natura
conditions will be studied. With this
rate known as basis, an effort will
be made to learn the factor that dis.
turb it at times when the grouse pc
pulation falls below normal.
