FIRE RAZES BARN
AT FINLAYSON
David Rive Suffers Great Loss of Hay
and Property With Little
Insurance.

Carl Anderson from Finlayson town
ship and agent of the Pine County
Mutual Fire Insurance Co., was in
Askov Tuesday together with David
Rive to report fire loss on the Rive
place, two miles northeast of Finlay-
son village, the report being given tc
Secretary j. P. Sorensen.
The fire that destroyed the main
barn and cattle barn as we'll as
the hay in the barns, was discovered
by Mrs. Rive between IL and 1 o'clock
Monday night, but too late to save the
structures. No cattle and horses
burned. Mr.. Rive did not have the
hay insured but carried $500 insur-
ance on the barns.
Arvid and George Rive were sleep
ing in the barn as was their custom
when Arvid was awakened by a
cracking sound between twelve and
one o'clock. He reused George, who
was sleeping on cot, and the latter
pulled at some hay from which smoke
was curling, which movement opened
the fire pocket and the boys were
forced to leave the cot and three over
coats, new pair of trousers and an
accordion which we're by their bed.
barely escaping the roaring fire.
They were able to save the harness
and a few articles but most of the
equipment was burned. Word was
telephoned to Finlayson and a large
number of men accompanied the fire
truck to the farm, but the building
was too far gone to attempt to save it.
Other out-buildings and the house
were far enough away so they were
not in danger. The hay barn was of
logs with lean-to for the cattle
and horses. There were five tons of
timothy and three tons of clover hay
in the barn. 1t is a great loss at this
time OF year. Mr.. Rive and his sons
have worked hard clearing their
farm since coming to that community
five years ago and the whole COM
munity sympathises in their loss.

Highway Markers
Point Out Places
Of Historic Value

Tourists on Minnesota highways
nowadays are greeted here and there
with markers calling attention to
some point of historic interest. In
other words the fascinating history of
our state is being laid open to the trav-
eler. Many small signs, Historic Site
Ahead" along Minnesota trunk high
ways have been placed, the highway
bulletin points out, for double pur-
pose; first, to call the attention of
motorists to the fact that point of
historic prominence is at hand; Sec
ond, to guard. as may be possible,
against motorists making an unex-
pected or unsignaled stop on the trav-
eled part of the highway, or, what is
still more dangerous, of backing up
in order to read the inscription on
the marker, which has been placed
we'll out from the roadway very par
ticularly to help prevent such hap
penings.
The state highway department has
joined hands with the state historical
society in marking hundreds of points
which featured in one way or another
in the states early history. Many of
these are of where settlements once
flourished but are now long disap-
peared. Others of forts, Ravens of
protection at some time but now at
best but small piles of fallen stones;
while others mark locations where
wars among the Indian tribes took
place; or where white people, pioneer
settlers, made brave but futile stand
against Indian attacks.
The markers are substantial steel
plates, three by five feet in dimension,
into which the words of the inscrip-
tions are deeply cut. Each marker
consists of caption in four-inch let
tiers, and a fifty word descriptive
statement in two-inch letters. Each
marker bears the seal of the Mime
sofa Historical Society and the en-
blem of the Minnesota Highway de-
partment as vouchers for its anthem
ITCHY. The historical society pre-
pares the inscriptions and indicates
the site for the markers, and the
highway department erects them.
Placing of the markers has been
made the occasion of interesting cere-
mony by numerous communities, and
in some instances the land upon
which they have been placed has been
permanently preserved against other
usage.

along, in short, without lot of things
we are accustomed to. But on the whole
we probably could manage to be COM
Portable and reasonably prosperous II
we didn't import single commodity
from any other part of the world.
Of course, we would have TO cut
down on a great deal of our farm pro-
duction We raise more wheat, more
corn, more cotton, mere tobacco, more
of a number Of other farm products
than we in the United States can con-
sumo. We mine more copper, more
iron, more of several other metals than
our domestic needs call for We would
have to shut down a lot of mines and
abandon a lot of farms and find some
other occupation for the miners and
farmers thus thrown out of work We
produce more oil than we can use, so
we would have to cap lot of on wells
and abandon a lot of pipe lines. We
make more automobiles, more electrical
equipment, more sewing machines,
more typewriters, more fertilizers more
cameras, pianos and other manufac-
tured products than we can use, and
so a lot of the factories would have
to shut down or curtail production
But on the whole, perhaps we could
get along if we did no business with
the rest of the world. We wouldn't
have to bother building any ships, but
of course, we could find something else
for the shipbuilders to do.
1t seems to us that the complete
answer to the people who think we
ought not to have anything to do with
Europe lies in those facts. Until and
unless the economic prosperity of the
rest of the world is restored to the
point where foreign nations can buy
our surplus products again, we can
not look for a great or permanent re-
vival Of our own prosperity. And since
the rest of the world cannot buy our
goods unless we buy theirs, the prob
lem of world prosperity depends for
its solution largely upon the restora-
ton of our own prosperity
There is no escaping the conclusion
that neither our nation nor any other |
can stand alone.

RELICS OF PROSPERITY.

One consoling reflection in these
days of stress is that we did lot of
things in the days of prosperity whose
benefits we can still enjoy. We may
not be buying as many new radio sets
as we were few years ago, but the
old ones still work, and programs are
coming through. Many man who
couldn't think Of buying a new car
today is making good use Of the auto
mobile he bought when times were
good, One Of the companies reported
the other day that present sales Of cars
are running at the rate of 291 used
cars to every 100 new cars sold
In public works we have many en-
during things which we wouldn't start
out to build now, but which our chill
dren and grandchildren will continue
TO enjoy. Our national program Of con-
crete highways on solid foundations
would never have got fair start If the
nation had not been over prosperous
Tor a few years; even today it is far
from having been abandoned. There is
nothing Of more enduring value than
good road Only week or two ago
there was uncovered a mile or 50 Of
rock highway built by the Romans
IN the south Of England nearly two
thousand sears ago. Twenty-one feet
wide, it led from London to the Chan
mel, part Of the great system Of roads
which tied the ancient Roman empire
together.
One OF the reasons why our widely
separated settlements and communities
have held together in a single nation
has been that means of communication.
first the railroads. then the great high
ways, have closely followed the ad-
vance Of population.

APPLE TIME.

The apple picking season is we'll I'M
der way. All over the United States
the annual crop of this most widely
distributed and most generally popular
of all fruits has begun. In most sec
tons, we understand, this is a pretty
good apple year The yield is larger
than usual but, like everything else,
prices are down
The apple has become such dis
tinctively American product that most
people do not realize that, like wheat
rice, cotton. oranges and many of on,
other fruits and crops the apple was
imported from Europe. Indeed, about
the only farm products which Amer
lea has given to the rest of the world
are tobacco, potatoes, corn and turkeys.
In thirty-six out of the forty-eight
states the annual apple crop is large
and important enough to figure in the
government reports. Washington grows
the most apples-more than thirty
seven million bushels year New York
state is second, producing more than
twenty-seven million bushels. In the
whole United States the annual crop
of apples shipped to market averages

THERE IS NO MAGIC.

II we knew a magic formula which
would change everything over night
and put the people of the United States
back where we were in the beginning
of 1929, we are not sure that we would
use it. We doubt whether it would be
either wise or kind to confirm the be-
lief, which apparently prevails among
many folk who ought to know better
that politicians possess some sort OF
magician's wand the waving of which
would restore prosperity, put up the
price of farm products, start every fac
tory off on full production, pay off
every debtors debts and send the price
of stocks up to new highs.
Looking back, we are not at all sure
that the orgy Of reckless spending
which came to an abrupt end three
years ago was good thing either for
the nation as whole or for the indi-
viduals who took part in it. 1t was, for
many, too close to getting something
for nothing; and those who did not get
unheard-of returns for their contri-
buttons in labor or commodities were
beginning to be infected with the idea
that they, too, were entitled to more
than they paid for.
We do not believe that any sound and
permanent prosperity can be built on
any basis but the old-fashioned recipe
Of hard work and thrift We have no
confidence that there is anything poll
ticians can do, whatever their party
labels, that will take the place of econ
omy and industry, render work UNI
necessary or put money into one pocket
without taking it out of another
All that politics and government
can do is undertake, SO far as selfish
and self-seeking human nature will
permit, to smooth out the inequalities
and cure the defects in our economic
structure which have grown up out of
custom and ignorance, and which tend
to put too heavy a burden upon some
and too light responsibility on others.

OUR AFFAIRS AND EUROPES

II we could build wall mile high
around the United States Of America
and put roof over it SO nobody could
come In or 60 out of it by air the
people of this country could probably
get along very well without any con-
facts of any kind with the rest Of the
world.
We would miss our tea and coffee
which we haven't succeeded vet in
growing in the United States. We would
have to get along without any silk
We would have to give up chocolates
and cocoa. Unless we found some way
to make rubber out of sawdust ar
something else, we would have to run
our automobiles without any tires. We
would have to be pretty economical
about shoes, since we depend verv
largely upon other countries for hides
