countries ruled by these govern

"ou probably know that Liberia
was given to the Negroes by the
United States that they might set
up a republic of their own. This
country is very rich, but the Ne
groes are not making the most of
it. The government is run loosely.
and is sometimes in a pitiful state.
"The Belgian and English colo
mics in Africa are the most pro-
gressive and modernized, although
the French and Spanish posses
sions on the Mediterranean are also
becoming fine countries.
There are very few railroads on
the west coast Of Africa and none
in the interior. That is why it is
extremely difficult to receive regu-
lar mail there. I still have mail
following me around. and it has
been months since I have been in
Africa, as spent some time in the
European countries before return
ing home. The farthest a railroad
entends into the interior Is 800
miles, although they are planning
railroad to run through Africa
from Algiers to Capetown. It will
not be finished for a number Of
years, and am doubtful if ever as
the African interior is very hard
land to pierce"

Is Your House too Warm?

Doctors Lay Many Respiratory Ills
to Hot Dry Air of Homes
in Winter

st. Paul, Nov.-What is the state
of the old heating plant; and how
about ventilation and the dryness
or moisture of the air in your
house this winter?
Minnesota State Medical Asso-
citation authorities believe that a
careful consideration of all of
these factors in winter comfort
will do considerable to promote
the health of the family from No
vember to May.
THAT existence in hot, unnatur-
ally dry atmosphere is definitely
damaging to respiratory functions
and definitely pre-disposing to colds
and winter illnesses is well estab-
lished," says this bulletin.
1.-THE conscientious head of the
household, who wants to give his
family a happy Minnesota winter,
will do much better to see that the
temperature in the house doesn't
soar above 6S degrees-than to see
that his medicine chest is full of
remedies for snuffles.

FREAK CALF BORN

Long Prairie Leader: The VIM.
Becker farm in Long Prairie town
ship has been visited the past sew
eral days by a large number of
persons who have gone there to see
freak Holstein bull calf born last
week. The animal is odd in that
it's lower jaw pretrudes much like
that of a bulldog. But strange as
this may be. it is not the biggest
surprise that awaits those who Wis
it the farm. The lower jaw fits in
to what in ordinary calves is the
nose but the Becker calf has a di-
vided nose, one nostril biting found
on each side of the lower jaw. The
animal is strong and healthy but
has its troubles. It cannot suck
and therefore must be fed with a
hose. Although it has teeth, it is
doubtful if it will ever be able to
use them to chew food. Since the
lower jaw protrudes over the upper
it will be impossible for the calf to
eat grass, although it may be able
to eat hay. For the present Mr..
Becker is keeping the calf but may
later dispose of it to company
desiring a freak of this nature for
display purposes should he receive
any such offers. It will be worth
your while to drive to the Becker
farm to see the animal.

1882 TAXES Will
BE some LOWER
Practically Every County and

duced Appropriation
TOTAL OF $4,000 900
minnesota Plan" Is Attract
ing Considerable Attention
In the State

Incomplete returns from the tax
ing units of Minnesota as compiled
up to this week show that taxes for
1882 will be reduced $5,476, 246.
When the returns are complete and
all the taxing units have reported,
it is certain that the total of tax
reductions for 1882 will run well
over the 100000 mark.
Itemized by taxing units, the tax
reductions as compiled up to the
beginning of the week were as fol-
lows:
Savings by Counties -.--... S 2,110,9a
Savings by Townships - 1,505. BOT
Savings by School
Districts ---------------------------- 1,075,30
Savings by Villages -.-.-----.- 7S5, 900
In this compilation there are no
returns from cities as at this time
such returns are incomplete but the
tax reductions in cities, known up
to this time are large.
Not a county in the state but
that repors substantial reductions in
its various taxing units. Aitkin
county leads with tax slash of
$165,000 in county levies and S34,-
275 in township levies. This IS a
total of $4,000 and does not in
clude school tax reductions, 'he
amount of which is not reported
yet.
Other counties in which the to-
tai of tax reductions reaches SUBJ
stantial sums are:

loss set forth is s7s9,s63 incurred
by the Farmers National Grain
corporation, central cooperative,
in accommodating grain for drought
relief.
MANY groups" the board observ-
ed, want sterilization corporations
always to buy and never to sell.
That is asking the impossible. sta
bilization operations cannot main
tain prices continuously. So long
as SURPRISES continue to pile up,
artificial measures can only tenn
porarily offset their effects"
Against possible losses however
the board set increased returns to
farmers in higher prices through
sterilization, and general benefits
to business and banks by staying
off disastrous shocks from wide
spread collapse of agriculture.
But the development of coopera-
tive marketing, the board said, is
its important long time undertake
ing. This program it commended, is
sound and "the best approach yet
offered to bring about permanent
Improvement of American agricul-
ture."
The growth of cooperatives was
detailed, disclosing that 100000
farmers were allied with these CO.
operatives to which $255, 1856, 45S in
loans has been made. They Rave
paid $146,367 ,203, leaving an out
standing balance of sos, 499,254.
Acknowledging opposition to its
policies, the board asserted simply
it was not permitting this to inter-
fere with "the carrying out of the
duties imposed on it by congress"
No recommendations were made
for amending the agricultural mar
keting act. Neither were requests
made for additional funds. On
July 1, the boards financial state
ment showed $159,977, sos remained
in the treasury of the original $780,
600 600 fund. Since then, however,
additional commitments have been
made to cooperatives reducing this
balance to an estimated $75,0OO.OOO.

Farmers Met and

ity of sentiment that the salaries
of the county officials should be
reduced about Is per cent. The de-
legates were just bite in doubt
as to how they should proceed to
accomplish this result.
]. G. Clever, of st. Joseph, told
the farmers that, in the last ana
lysis, they were largely to blame
for the high taxes. He said that the
great majority of the tax burden
was the town and school taxes. Not
enough attention was paid at the
tax levying time to see that these
taxes over which the residents of
the school district or township
have absolute and sole control.
The meeting lasted until the
shadows began to lengthen. Moth
ing really definite was cleaned up
at Wednesdays meeting. But
something that may grow with in
creasing momentum has been rails
ed.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1931-11-26

These are but few of the county
reductions. Thirty-five of the small
cities of the State report reductions
of $4,000. In townships, Brown
county leads in reductions to date
with a total of $44,861.
The effort in Minnesota to reduce
taxes by the system of reductions
in spending, is attracting attention
all over the United States and is
referred to as 1.-THE Minnesota Flan
of Tax Reduction" A writer in the
New York Times says:
MASS movements in Mime
sofa proving successful in
checking the menacing expan-
sion OF government, and thee
by hating the over-mounting
cost of government which The
taxpayer has to bear, might it
not be a good thing to try the
same method of mass protest in
Washington and in our State
capitols?"
It is increasingly evident that
the real way to bring tax relief is
to reduce public spending. The re-
suits are quick and direct. Every
county, school district, township,
city and village in Minnesota can
prove thisc. However, lit the move
ment be continuous and intelligent.
Spasmodic uprisings and then "for-
getting all about it." will not solve
the problem permanently. County
organizations, with representatives
in every precinct, giving regular at
tention to present expenditures and
to new proposals for spending,
make up the system which insures
real and lasting tax relief.

OBSERVE LOAD LIMITS

A warning to persons hauling
Christmas trees by truck was is
sued this week by Earle Brown,
chief of the Minnesota Highway pa
troll, cautioning them to comply
with the requirements Of the state
traffic act.
Loads are by law limited to eight
feet in width. Care must be taken
that neither the butts nor any other
parts of the trees extend beyond
this limit.
All loads which exceed 80 inches
in width must have clearance lights
or reflectors on the left side, front
and read, visible 800 feet away un-
der normal atmospheric conditions.
If the trees extend more than four
feet beyond the read end Of the
truck, a red flag must be attached
in the daytime, and red or yellow
light or reflector at night.
Trees should be loaded so hat
they stay in place. The fact the
load was within the limits at the
start and shifted during the trip, Is
not valid excuse.

Another fake advertising scheme
is being worked successfully in var

seems that business men would
have learned to avoid such schemes
by this time, but Barnum's estimate
