State in Shape to Aid
Sfockmen on AridLand
Farm Leaders, Bankers, Railroads
Ready to Aid DrOuth-Stricken
Areas, Mr.. Holmberg Says

Minnesota stands ready to do it's
part in relieving the drouth situa-
ton that has arisen in less favored
states. This assurance has been
given by Gov. Theodore Christian
son, following report made to him
by drouth committee headed by

of organized farmers, railroad ex-
ecutives, livestock marketing ex-
ecutives and bankers, met with
Mr.. Holmberg and discussed ways
in which Minnesota may serve the
drouth-ridden areas in other Sec
tons of the country.
If desired by governors of other
states, Minnesota will Immediately
make an exhaustive survey of it's
stocks of surplus feed, and obtain
advices from farmers who are in
position to winter the surplus cat
tie or sheep of the arid regions,
Mr.. Holmberg said.
This mobilization of acreage and
surplus stocks of rations will be
brought about by reports compiled
by County Farm Bureaus, county
agents and bankers. If desired by
Gov. Christianson, each farm Bur-
eau unit. each county agent and
each Minnesota banker will immed-
itely make a farm-to-farm analysis
of feed and pasturage, and find
homes for the sheep and cattle that
soon must leave the drouth-parch-
ed areas or die.
Those who attended the drouth
conference and offered their full
cooperation were A. J. Olson,
president of the Minnesota Farm
Bureau Federation, c. E. Brom-
bach, president of the Minnesota
Bankers association, A. Dreis,
president of the South st. Paul
Livestock Exchange, L. R. Capron,

State Exhibits to Be Big
Attraction at State Fair
Cause and Cure of FrOst-BOils to
Be Explained-New Displays
by Many Departments

The State Exhibits building will
again be one of the big attractions
at the Minnesota State Fair which
opens Saturday. Each year since
the displays by the State depart
ments were grouped in one build
ing, this feature has drawn larger
and larger crowds.
A frost boil exhibit by the Min
nesota Highway department will be
one of the new features this year.
This display, arranged by the lab
oratory division, will show cross
sections illustrating the formation
of these highway affections, and
how they are treated. Highway
patrolmen will be on hand to ex-
plain traffic laws and a miniature
rod will interest the younger ele-
ment.
A working model showing the
operations in the mining of iron
ore, transporting It to the docks
and loading it into steamers will
feature the display by the mines
division of the State Auditors de-
partment. The land and timber di-
L =
visions will also have exhibits.
The hazards at grade crossings,
and means of preventing crossing
accidents will be emphasized in a
miniature railroad crossing exhibit
by the State Railroad commission.
The State Prison will have a
large display of farm machinery
and Irvine, and other institutions
under the State Board of Control
will show a wide variety of handi-
craft made by inmates.
The State Dairy and Food de-
partment, State Historical society,
the agricultural division of the
University, and several other state
J departments will have displays.
Each Of them will have some new
features not shown in former years.
The State Exhibits building is
located on Machinery Hill, north
of the Women's building. The State
Game and Fish and Forestry de-
partments will occupy a building
by themselves, near the State Elk
hibits building, with a large show-
ing of timber products and wild
life.

80 Per cent of Adults Have
Some Sort of Foot Trouble
State Medical Association Says
Roomy Shoes Will Prevent
Most Trouble

St. Paul Aug. 27-Put your bare
foot down on a piece of paper and
draw around it with a pencil, says
today's bulletin from the Minnesota
State Medical Association. Then put
your shoe on top of the same out
line, heal to heal, and draw around
it too.
If your shoe is smaller than your
bare foot, then there is something
wrong with the picture and with
your feet as well, according to these
medical experts.
No less than ninety per cent of
adults have some sort of foot
trouble, the bulletins says, and
most of it is caused by improper
shoes. They are too short or too mar
row and too thin in the sole.
Prevention of foot troubles is far
simpler than their correction. Ex-
cept in cases of arthritis or frac-
lures, prevention is usually quite
simple. It merely involves wearing
shoes as roomy and as hygienically
shaped as the shoes you buy for the
children, says the bulletin, and
nine-tenths of the bunions and toes
and ingrown toe nails, not to speak
of corns would never occur to tor
ment their unhappy hosts.
For most adults the damage has
already been done and for these
remedial measures that are pre-
scribed to fit the foot are all that
can be recommended. For mild
cases of corns and callouses some
form of salicylic acid treatment and
properly adjusted pads and bars to
shift the weight are helpful. For
the more serious foot ailments, in
GLIDING pronated or flat feet, these
simple measures are not enough
Sometimes a proper brace will serve
sometimes surgery is necessary. In
any case each disabled foot should
receive it's own special treatment
It should not be left to the shoe
salesman and a patent standard
appliance for correction.
1t is not enough, the bulletin con.
cludes, to operate and brace and
pad after the damage is done. Edu-
cation must concern itself more en-.
ergetically with the preservation OF
normal feet. Flat and deformed
feet are an important source OF
discomfort and incapacity.

Latest Map Of Europe
Narrows Wheat Market
Many Countries Growing More
+ Foodstuffs Ssnce' World War
Than Ever Before

The new nations of central
Europe, created as result of the
World War, are one of the active
causes for restriction of the for
eign demand for wheat, and the
resultant low wheat prices, accord
ing to L. r. Roberts. treasurer of
the Minnesota Wheat Growers, in
statement made public today.
"The break up of the Austrian
Empire" according to Mr.. Roberts,
"and the creation of new interna-
tional borders zig-zagging acros
old natural trade territories all the
way from the Gulf of Finland to the
Adriatic gave to the statesmen of
the new countries called into being
an acute national problem that af-
fected each one in the same man
ner.
EVERY one of the new nations so
created felt, and still feel, that one
of the best possible forms of pro-
lection against foreign trade or
military pressure is the ability of
the nation to feed itself. National
pride is at stake, and each of these
newly created nations is busy set
ting UP barriers against foreign
grain, and in favor of its own pro-
ducers. What Italy is doing on a
huge scale other nations are doing
to the best of their more limited
misunderstanding their agricul-
tural programs so that each can
feed itself as nearly as possible out
of the products of its own acres.
"Rumania, for it's size, is one of
the greatest grain producing ma
tions of the world. It's new ter
ritory added after the war embraces
some of the most productive wheat
land of the old Austrian Empire.
The agricultural resources of the
shrunken Austria of today are linn
tied, and are being forced by the
Austrian government with all its
power as a development vital to
it's future. Hungary, Czechoslovak-
ia and Poland all feel that it is
essential to their economic indie
tendance that they be able to feed
their own populations. The new
Baltic states have like need. Fol-
lowing the example of Germany,
Italy and France, each has taken
steps to hold it's own grain market
for its farmers.
"The effect of all this that Eur
one. prior to the World War an
eager buyer of American wheat, is
now a reluctant buyer, seeking in
every possible way to avoid out
side grain purchases. This acts as
a depressing factor on world prices,
and the direct reaction upon our
home market prices cannot be dis
puted.
minnesota Wheat Growers con-
siders that in the light Of world
crop production and demand the
present market reaction is over
done, and that as the crop moves
forward during the year, strong
er tone is likely to prevail. How
ever, until the grain now in stor-
age out Of the past, years crop
moves into consumption anything
like former high prices cannot be
looked for-and not even then IL
Europe goes forward successfully
with Its feed ourselves" program"
