PINE COUNTY is
ASKED TO HELP
IN CHILD WORK

Pine county has been asked to par
ticipate late this spring in a regional
conference of social work that is to
be held at Cloquet i'm Carlton county,
and sponsored by the State Board of
Control, the State Conference of So
cial Work, and the General Extension
Division of the University of Mime
sofa. The announcement of the con-
ference was made this week by
Charles F. Hall, director of the Chill
dren's Bureau, State Board of Con-
troll, st. Paul, and Chairman of the
Regional Conference Committee of the
State Conference of Social Work.
The Cloquet conference is one of
four that are being sponsored this
spring. The others will be at Red
wood Falls, Bre cke nridge, and Winona.
The purpose of these one-day con-
ferenceS is to discuss community
problems and to familiarize those in
attendance with methods that are now
in use throughout the state in meet
ing them. Present at the conference
will be representatives of the State
Board of Control, the State Conference
of Social Work, and workers from
many social agencies Throughout the
state. BY means of the conference it
is hoped to acquaint those interested
i'm community problems with more re-
cent trends and to promote a general
interest i'm these problems. While the
program has not yet been completed,
at the conferences last year there
were discussed such topics as the
program of infant and maternity hy-
giene in Minnesota, the training Of
youth for leadership, the work Of
county clubs for women, some of the
essentials of case work, the work of
the State Board of Control, and the
care of cripples in the state. In the
planning of the program there will be
opportunity for the discussion of any
special local problems.

county agent, and there are great
many other counties that feel just
the same way as the farmers in this
county. This means more men, more
on the payroll, more taxes. If our
senators and representatives can pass
some bill whereby we can get the
cost of production on commodities on
the farm they will be doing some
thing instead of burdening the far
mers with more taxes.
A great majority of our farmers
have been unable to pay their taxes.
and had to leave their farms in this
state. The main trouble with us at
present, they claim we have got an
over-production, and still want to put
S5 more men on the pay roll to pro-
duce more. So far as the extension
work with the boys and girls goes,
that is a joke, as soon as a young
man gets to be 81 years on farm
with all the instruction from the
county agent he is not going to stay
on the farm with farming conditions
as they are now, and have been since
1920; IS to 500 of all the county
agents that we have at present are
mostly raised i'm the villages and
cities, perhaps some of them were on
the farm when small boys. If there
ever comes a time when we should
want county agent, get practi-
cal farmer that has had experience,
and that has made good
When these appropriations are made
you must understand that practically
all the burden falls on the farmers.
The business man has to charge a
little more to pay his share, and
eventually it all comes from the far
mer.
Now Mr. BabcOck of the highway
department, wants an appropriation 20
have IS more men on the pay roll
as patrol men. | am not blaming
as he is pretty nicely taken care of
himself.
Then there is the reforestatiOn bill
which burden the tax payers with a
and l think our senators and repre-
sentatives should be very careful how
they vote on these bills and should
not have to think twice before they
vote.
If the senators and the representa-
tives from now on will start in and
repeal so per cent of the laws that
we have on the statute they will be
doing a grand thing instead of try
ing to burden the farmers of this
state with more taxes, and if the
taxes are not reduced we will have
thousands of others that will have
to leave their farms.
We have hundreds on the pay roll
in this state since during the war
and up to the present time that should
be clipped off.
We should be reducing expenses
| instead of increasing them.

who was appointed by the present gov
ernor of Minnesota to the office OF
head of the State Security Commits
sion, never would have become part
of the governors political family; he
never would have had the opportunity
of using this sacred position to help
defraud the innocent Minnesota in
vestors out of couple of million dol
lars. Some of our Pine county citi-
zens are among those defrauded. A
happy result of that defrauding is that
A. F.. Nelson with several others has
been indicted, found guilty and SEN
fenced to terms in prison.
A. E. Nelson, in 1924, was an i'm
portant member of the stats It'd
ming" an influential Swedish weekly
newspaper and, from his position
there, he gave strong support to
Theodore Christianson in that mans
campaign against Floyd B. Olson for
the office of governor of our state.
Cochran had control of the "VOlkzei-
tung," German daily newspaper.
He negotiated with A. e. Nelson, who
after the election had received the
appointment, by Governor Christian
son to the head of the Security Com
mission, an office created to help pro-
tect the interests of the Minnesota in
vestors, for the control of the stats
Tidning," the Swedish newspaper.
Nelson sold Cochran this paper. He
also secured permission to sell notes
on these propositions to the public,
and the stocks were sold at highly in
flated values. resulting in the dis
aster of large numbers of Minnesota
investors. This has been the reason
for the Weeks resolution in the legis-
lature.
1t was more than unfortunate that
such a man be appointed to such po-
sition. 1t pays to vote for the right
man and this experience should never
be repeated.

what all the shooting was about. so
we told them we had killed a bear,
and everybody was happy. When we
got the, bear home we weighed him.

that our true sportsman cannot live up

had an accident in our camp. 1t pays
to be careful and to know what you
are shooting at before you shoot.
Some of our rules at camp are: the

water for the camp until the next one
misses and so on during the stay.
One of the old hunters laws is 'the

Editor Askov American:
1t was with great regret that a
large group of informed people noted
the defeat of the repeal of the Brooks
Coleman Act, bill passed by the
1921 legislature taking away the home
rule which the street car companies
ever dispised The street car COM
panies naturally were extremely in
terested in favor of the BrooksCote-
man Act as is and opposed to repeal.
As things stand they have been and
are able to practically double their
fare charges. The repeal had the en-
dOrSement of the city councils of Min
neapOlis, ST. Paul and Duluth as we'll
as the endorsement of the people of
ordinary means, that people that
afford other transportation. Yet, I'M
der the domination of Rep. Norton
the repeal of this act went down in
defeat However the men backing
the repeal have much to be encour-
aged. Constantly, sentiment favor
my the Icptdl Is gradually anu SOllSlS-
tently growing. Our Senator, Adolph
Larson, supported the repeal of the
BrOoksCOleman Act also in the
House of Representatives from neigh
boring counties. LOdin of ISanti
and Conrad Johnson of Chisago, did
the same. but in this list we fail to
find the name of our friend Joseph
Therrien, who in all of his campaigns,
has had my support and that of hun
dreds of progressives. | know that
many of the county voters would APP
preciate statement from him on
this bill. They would also like to
have his attitude on the State Con-
stabulary bill, proposition provid-
ing for the addition of seventy-five
more men to state salary positions.
see by the Daily papers that we
have several bills that should be
turned down by senators and repre-
sentatives of this state. "One is for
the appropriation of $625,OOO that is
for extension work and county agent s
salaries. Now this is a measure that
was put over on the farmers during
