"The Beast of the City"
at the Opera House

Revelations of celebrated police cases
cleaned from secret service records
and secrets of some of the ruses used
by detectives in tracking down their
prey form an important part in the
plot structure of THE Beast of the
City," dramatic story of city life and
political corruption, which opens at the
opera House Sunday.
The multifarious tricks of rum
runners and hijackers, the manner in
which they move contraband in pro-
duce trucks, how alarm systems pro-
tect the plants" of bootleggers, how
bandits organize-are all shown in this
vivid and unusual picture.
How detectives utilize delicate scien-
tific apparatus, how fingerprints are
classified, how the micrograph, camera,
dynomometer and other aids to Scien-
tific detection are poerated, how the
psychological third degree works are
other revelations in the story which
presents an accurate insight into the
machinery for enforcing the law in

License Statistics.

License Statistics.
The Agriculture, Dairy and Food de-
partment collects revenue for the state
by issuing 10 different kinds of Ii
censes. These range in price from $24
to 81 year.
approximately 100000 is collected
annually in license fees by this depart
ment About $150,0OO of this (Which
is derived from the cigarette license
tax is returned to the county, city or
village and township.
The license fees collected by this de-
partment are for sale of cigarettes,
milk, eggs, fertilizer and oleomargine,
Licenses are also required to operate
canning factories, beverage factories,
beverage mixers. Out of state COM
panies selling bottled drinks in Mime
sofa must pay an annual registration
license The latter is in the nature OF
registration fee and is optional with
the butter maker.
Storage Food.
Canada is developing the horse meat
industry, according to recent informa-
ton from the Department of Agri-
culture at Regina, Sask.
The European demand for such a
commodity is reported as very strong.
Kansas City, this writer understands,
has a packing house devoted to the
production of horse meat, which is
mostly sold abroad.
Several Twin City business men heard
about horse flesh and purchased a
quantity at five cents pound laid
down, to feed animals on fur farm
in which they were interested. Several
of the men took few pounds of the
meat home, had it cooked and sampled
it. They reported that it was quite
edible, in fact, very tasty.
The horse is a Clearly animal and
there is no reason why its flesh should
not provide healthful food. Although
with the price of pork, beef and mutt
ton as low as it is, there seems little
necessity to introduce new meat pro-
duct to further clog market, whose
prices, some economists contend, are
low because of so-called surplus.

Conservation groups, Sportsmen's or

officials throughout Minnesota are
Association in its campaign for fire
prevention program in state parks,
forests and game reserves on a larger
scale than ever before attempted, as
an aid to unemployment and the pro-
lection of the growing timber, farm
homes and wild life.
Letters are being received daily at
the headquarters of the association
indorsing the plan and promising to
support the movement when it comes
sideration. The entire program, in
dorsed by the directors of the Arrow
head body, has been submitted by
Allied Hoel of Duluth, president of the
association, to Governor Floyd B. Olson
who is expected to bring the matter
before the chief executives cabinet
this week.
In addition to the steps to prevent
fires by providing fire breaks, cleaning
up dead and down timber, removing
snags and debris along highways in
forests and parks and constructing
telephone lines, the plan involves a
comprehensive program of employment
for thousands of men out of work in
Minnesota, according to Mr.. Hoel. State
funds are available for such project
it is pointed out, providing the adj
ninistraion council gives its approval
Work could be started Immediately and
carried through the spring and summer
months.
More than 100000 would be ex-
pended for prevention work, &C
cording to the plan, while officials OF
the Arrowhead association point out
that the Wisconsin state legislature
recently appropriated $1,1O0,OOO for &C
tivities along similar lines. In addition
to Endorsements being received from
organizations throughout Minnesota
the project has also been approved by
state and Federal forestry officials, Mr.
Hoel announced. He also said that the
protection to wild life by preventing
fires appeals to many, as well as the
fact that forest fires give the state
unfavorable publicity and seriously re-
duce tourist traffic.
