Searns county was represented
at the Junior Livestock Show at

ed.
Robt. Vendesteeg, Sank Centre,
showed the only baby beef entry a
September 1881 calf, in a class Of
Ga competitors from all over the
state. He managed to stand in
ninth place among the Herefords.
The entries in the pig show were
exhibited by Peter Meier of Albany
and Larry Hetzel of Sank Centre.
Peter showed a Poland China bar

states that a greater number of

year in the lamb, pig and baby

way better individuals will be
shown at the Junior Show in 1888
Baby beef calves should be select

when Buck, as Carlos, a member
of the Mexico, learns that his
friend, Ramon Ruiz, is in love with
the same girl that is responsible
for the death Of his younger
brother, he is determined to frus-

working for gang of crooks who
are seeking to gain control of the

oil. How he foils these plans pro-
vides intensity exciting drama.
Mona Maris gives an interesting
portrayal as the colorful and spir-

Carless Man Starts 81 Per Cent
Of Forest Fires

1Carless Man Starts 81 Per Cent
of Forest Fires
State conservation, fish, game and
forestry departments are sending
out warnings against carelessness
in the use Of fire in forests, ac-
cording to a bulletin of the Amer
lean Game Association issued here
today. Man is blamed for causing
80 per cent of the forest fires! The
specific causes in typical state,
Wisconsin, are given as follows:
carelessness in land clearing caus-
ed "a per cent of the fires; smokers
81 per cent; railroads 10 per cent;
campfires IL per sent; incendiary 5
per cent logging, per cent; miscel-
laneous 4 per cent; and lightning 1
per cent. It is believed that these
figures with slight variations will
hold good in practically every state.
With the coming of the fall and
cessation of rainfall the woods"
become excessively dry. Add to
these the carpet of dry leaves and
conditions are ideal for the starting
of forest fires, officials of the AS
ISOLATION point out and add a plea
for extreme carefulness of all who
go into the woods and fields now.
Smokers rank second in the
causes of forest fires. The careless
ly tossed match after lighting a
pipe or cigarette; the thoughtless
Tipping away of the cigarette or
cigar butt, and the knocking of
pipe Goals upon the ground-these
account for more than one-fifth of
the forest fires.
Break that match!
lamp out that cigarette or cigar!
Stamp out the pipe Goals!
And prevent forest fires.
Campfires account for another II
per cent of forest fires-and these
campfires are for the most part
those of outing parties.
Drown that campfire.
Not only are the forests burned,
but incalculable numbers of birds
and animals, wild creatures of the
forests, many of whom don't know
enough to fee before the flames,
and often those who do, are trap
ped by the spreading fire walls and
destroyed. =

In Miss Lucas story studio ex-
pert Immediately recognized dram
attic qualities of a high order. It

and Fredric March find an admir-
able vehicle for their superior
dramatic talents.
The picture is presented under

life in Americas modern young
group of irresponsibles. The novel
became one of the best sellers of
the past year and the picture clos

rectorial capacity in the produc-
ton of the picture.

Screen Star II Years Ago, Conan
Returns To Movies

One of Americas best-known
stage personalities makes his talk
ing-picture debut in 1.-THE Phantom
President, political comedy which
comes to the Oxford Theatre Sun
day, Monday and Tuesday.
He is George M. Conan, known
to both Broadway and the road"
as one of the stages most prolific
actors, playrights, producers and
song writers. Claudette Colbert and
Jimmy Durante are also featured
in the cast.
Though it is his first venture in
to Hollywood. "The Phantom Presi-
dent" is not Cohan's first movie.
Back in 1915, when films were still
a more or less crude proposition,
he made several in a New York
studio.
Making his talkie debut in 1.-THE
Phantom President" Conan plays
two. roles. His first is as a banker
who is qualified for the presidency
nj every respect but one-he hasn't
the personality to get votes. His
second Is as the bankers double,
a medicine show barker fairly ooz-
ing, personality, who is hired to
impersonate the banker to get him
votes. A dramatic but amusing
climax ultimately reveals the sit
uation to the public.
Miss Colbert is cast as the
daughter of an ex-President, object
of alteration of both Cohans. Dur
ante, with his "schnozzle," is the
medicine-show barker's pal.

Dynamos Threat to Hunting U. s.
Hearing Shows

Hunters throughout the United
States are faced with grave
problem that threatens the future
of their sport, according to facts
brought to light in a hearing be-
fore the Federal Power Commits
sion here September 20, upon the
application of the Santee-Cooper
Hydro-Electric project on an
amendment to use the waters of
these two rivers in South Carolina
for power development, according
to bulletin of the American Game
Association.
The Commission stated that, &C
cording to ruling of the Attorney
General of the United States, it is
not empowered to weigh wild life
and other recreational and esthetic
values in determining desirability
of granting permits for power de-
velopment. This is considered a
dangerous ruling by game officials
and sportsmen.
Former U. s. Senator Joseph s..
Frelinghuysen, New Jersey, Clar-
ence M. Clark, Philadelphia, Pa,
president Of the Santee Club, Seth
Gordon, president of the American
Game Association and others, at
tempted to show that wild>life
values, both from a national and
local standpoint, are af greater val
ne than the public benefits from
the proposed water development
would be.
The power company has been
granted a permit to use certain
percentages of water and to build
a certain area of reservoirs. The
amendment sought is to increase
the reservoir area and to divert
practically all of the Santee river
into the Cooper river.
Witnesses for wild life commended
that If this plan were carried thru.
vast areas of duck feeding grounds
would be dried up on the Santee
and that the excessive flow of wat
er into the Cooper would break
the dykes and flood out other large
areas of duck feeding grounds, and
to the community, state and nation.
1t was shown that hundreds of
thousands of dollars are spent an
nually in duck hunting on these
two adjacent areas; that hundreds
of people are given employment;
that the health Of the community
would be endangered by laying bare
large areas of land by the rapidly
fiuctuating water levels. that mil
lions Of dollars are invested in
ducking properties; that the plan
Is not feasible; that such power
that is proposed to be developed is
not needed and probably will not
be for the next fifty years; and that
steam generating machinery is
now coming to such perfection that
If such power were needed it could
be developed cheaper than thru
water power.
The Commission, however, was so
impressed with the wild life value
that it allowed the testimony of the
conservationist to go into the rec
ord despite the fact that the rul-
ing apparently prevents their ser
ious consideration. The ruling or
the law will have to be chang
ed, conservationists said.

When play was resumed for the
second half it was apparent to the

and lose ground. After a nice gain
with few yards to go they would
be called offside, but they kept
fighting, fighting. In the second
half Iwinski crossed the goal for
the second touchdown. A short
time later a nice pass from Iwinski

Check up On Turkey Buyers

Turkey producers of Stearns
County are warned by County
Agent Lenzmeier to make sure of
the financial responsibility of nom
resident turkey buyers who are
bidding high prices to receive tur-
key shipments. If history repeats
itself quite a number Of Mime
sofa turkeymen this year will fail
to get checks for turkeys sent to
questionable produce houses in
eastern markets. Many dealers and
commission merchants in Chicago
and eastern points are perfectly
reliable but few "fly-by-night"
buyers are in their midst. Turkeys
as well asother produce should not
be sold to solicitors who cannot
show that they are licensed produce
dealers in the state of Minnesota.
Even tho these dealers may be IL
censed and bonded in New York
state, or Pennsylvania this does
not mean that they are bonded in
Minnesota Minnesota is the only
state that gives shippers absolute
protection against loss thru fraud
ulent marketing practices.
AS long as the marketing sea-
son is at hand few precautions in
care and handling of birds should
be- considered. Only well finished
mature birds should be dressed for
the Thanksgiving market. All late,
underfed light birds, still having
many pin feathers should be held
for Christmas or later during the
winter. Formerly there was a mar
ket for turkeys only at Thanksgiv-
ing and Christmas. Now however
turkeys have a good market all
thru the winter.
Birds to be dressed should be
starved well to make sure the
crops are empty. Unless this is
done green" birds and slippery
carcasses will result. When bleed
ing is not well done green carcasses
will also be the result. Unless one
has had considerable experience in
sticking one should not depend on
the cut thru the roof of the mouth
to suffice for bleeding. A small in
cision with a narrow knife should |
be made just below the head to cut !
the juglar wien. When this is done
and the birds are left to bleed !
while hanging thoro bleed will
result.
