He said the Russian was a good
soldier. They were used to obey
ing orders and followed instruc-
lions implicitly under all conditions.
DR.. Rempel said they made fine
Roadway against the Germans un-
til Won Hindenburg appeared and
then the going began to get tough.
At one time Russia had 15,OO0.-
600 men under arms. When the
officers deserted them at the front
they became a disorganized mob
and retreated for days.
When the revolution started Ker-
ensy was a member Of the Russian
Duma, very similar to the United
States Senate. This body had
been inexistence only a compare
lively few years. At this time the
Russians had never heard of Lenin
and Trosky. DR.. Rempel said
President Kerensy got along fine
for about three months when the
Bolshevik propaganda began to be
widely circulated. The soldiers
were told to go home and that all
property would be divided. Kerensy
was forced out in October, 1918.
With the advent of Bolshevism
the door Of every Jail and prison
in the country was thrown open.
This criminal mob rapidly organ
lied into the Anarchist or Black
army, the purpose Of which was to
plumber and destroy. At the pres
emit time the Anarchists have been
generally wiped out either by the
Bolsheviks or by internal dissen-
ton among themselves.
With Lenin and Trosky Russia

passed under the regime of COM
plete communism. Marriage and
divorce was the mere question of
appearing before some officer and
declaring that you were wed. When
martial ties CALLED, divorce was lust
as simple. The children belong to
the state. Bolshevism does not toll
crate religious beliefs Everything
is a community; each man receives
the same compensation, mere ex-
istence, as does his neighbor, re-
CARELESS of the type of work being
done. Education of the child is not
one of the tenents of Communism.
DR. Rempel has three sisters still
residing in Russia. Their husbands
are physicians and one a teacher.
He said that regardless of the pro-
paganda spread broadcast in this
country conditions are very bad,
and are not improving. He says
that when an American or any
foreigner visits Russia today he is
kept carefully in charge and is
shown only what the Bolshevik
wants him to see. He gains his
impressions from what he sees and
printed matter furnished him.
In the Judgment of DR.. Rempel
the Boshevik or Communist form
Iof government in Russia cannot en-
dure.
DR.. Rempel came to America six
years ago. He first located at But

to receive license to practice for
three years but he worked for an
elderly physician. When he came
to this country he could not speak

4,736,0OO Bushels Wheat
On Farms Of State April l
Nearly Twice as Much as Same
Period 1880 Government
Estimates Show s.

Stocks of wheat for all purposes
on Minnesota farms April 1, this
year were considerably in excess of
stocks for the same period in 1880
and 1929, also in excess of the 5
year (1926-1930) average. However,
there was quite heavy movement
from farms during March, so that
April 1 stocks this year were Festi-
mated to be 4,736,0OO bushels COM
pared with 2,761 900 bushels one
year ago and 3,674,OOO bushels in
1929, according to the Federal Stat
stefan of the Minnesota Coopera-
tive Reporting Service.
No doubt, since April some Of
this wheat has been used for seed
so that not all of the April 1 stock
will be available for market.
March 1, this year there were g.
900 bushels on farms, compared
with 3,747O00 bushels one year ago
or, 900 bushels on farms, compared
(1925-1929) average.
While wheat prices were very I'M
satisfactory the total 1890 produc-
ton of wheat in this state was l.
100000 bushels or 9 per cent great
er than in 1929, so that taking into
consideration the size of the two
crops nearly as much wheat has
been marketed this year. On April
1, this year there were about 20 per
cent of last years crop on farm
compared with slightly over IA per
cent one year ago.

bulletin. Any person who has had
two years experience in automobile
mechanics is eligible to take the
course. Following the instruction by
members of the Dunwoody staff,
the students will be given an ex-
animation and those who pass will
be given certificates of appoint
ment as official lamp-adjusters.
Every garage designated as an Of
fetal adjusting station must en-
ploy certified lamp adjuster, as
no one else can legally sign a GER
tificate showing that a set Of auto
lamps has been tested and found
legal.
At the same time, says the bull
letin. this may be a good time for
all motorists to check up on their
lamps and see. that they comply
with the law against glazing or
dazzling lights. When the candidat-
es for appointment to the State
Highway patrol have completed the
training course so that the patrol
will have it's full quota of seventy
men, the state traffic officers will
be able to devote more attention to
the auto light problem than they
have in the past, and it is expected
that a great many motorists will be
sent to the nearest lamp adjusting
station to have badly focused lamps
corrected
But whether you are stopped by a
patrolman or not, the bulletin adds,
it is a good plan to have your
lamps tested at regular periods.
Glaring lamps are just as danger
Gus for the man driving behind
them as the man who meets them.
Lamps properly adjusted so they
throw the light on the road ahead
add greatly to the safety and COM
fort of the driver. Glare is caused
not by too strong candle power, but
by lamps which throw the beam of
light upward into the eyes of ap-
preaching drivers and not on the
road where the light is needed.
Such lights are not only a menace
to everyone who meets them, but
they make driving difficult and
dangerous to the man behind them.
The short course May and will
be the only lamp adjuster's course
given this summer.

DR.. Christie was again instructed
by Sheriff s. H. Adams to deposit
the glass jar at the point designat-
ed in the letter at the appointed
time. Deputy Sheriff Balloon and a
member Of the State Bureau of
Criminal Apprehension found places
OF vantage near the culvert in ques-
ton, from which they could not
readily be seen. The jar was de-
posted at 10 o'clock Tuesday night,
but in spite of the fact that it was
dark and stormy, no one put in an
appearance to get the jar.
Yesterday morning about $50
o'clock, those on watch noticed a
team of horses and a wagon, be-
hind which was hitched a drill ap-
preaching from the south on State
Highway No. 4. Nothing was
thought of this common occurrence
until the driver Of the team came
to the culvert, where he jumped off,
hurriedly got the jar and again re-
sun-ed his place on the wagon. The
OFFICERS at this time put in their
appearance and found the jar un-
der funnel in the wagon and plac-
