MACHINE PREPARES SOIL AND
SEEDS In SAME OPERATION

A machine that will do the com
bIned jobs Of preparing the ground
and sowing the seed has been con
structed by Ole Torgerson of the
Bainville community, and will be used
on the owners farm, north of town
this spring. BY using a discarded
drill box and mounting it on a one
way disc now in use, little direct
outlay of cash has been needed for
materials.
The drill mechanism is operated
by chains and sprocket wheels from
an old binder. from a smll sprocket
on the forward end of the disc shaft
the driving power is transmitted to
a larger sprocket mounted on q line
shaft and thence to the drill. By
changing sprocket wheels a wide
variation in the rate Of seeding can
be effected.
Mr. Torgerson has used discarded
machinery parts and has done all of
the work in his own shop so that the
total cost of the machine will be ne
eligible. A similar machine construc-
ted five years ago by Oscar Nelson,
east of town, has given excellent
service and has been the means OF
reducing spring seeding time costs.

Disaster for the Railroads

Observation-Disclosures, according tx
a railroad Spokesman, was the mos
Disastrous year in the rails history
In the fAce of that. their taxes ag
gregated about four times the sun
available for diyldendk, and amount
ed to $2-65 for every man, woman
and child in the entire country. Fed.
eul 4nxes, which are based ON net
income. were naturally lower than in
other years. but Ill other forms OF
railroad taxes were higher. The tax
collector absorbed $40 out of every
hundred dollars of gross revenue
the largest proportion On record.
On the other hand, we have mah
the rihcad one of our foremost
taxpayers. and on the other, we have
allowed competing forms of trans
p~orta6ion- regulated and taxed to a
far lesser degree, to unfairly obtain
a great volumn of business that once
went to the rails We have para.
leIled the railroad tracks with fine
highways. partly built at railroad
expense. and along these highways
roll the uucks and buses over which
tn Interstate Commere Commission
has no authority. The inland water
ways float boats wh,ch furnish gov
enment subsidized transport
Unless immediate steps are taken
to correct this condition, the rail
roads are doomed to failure. There
is no other way out The rail in
is the greatest single employ
er and purchaser of supplies In the
country-and If It goes into bank
rnptcy, the public will be the pru-
ciple sufferer.

Would start you on the run.

Which really shows their sense,
The little trip they all enjoyed
So much, at whose expense?
OF course, they all desired a glimpse
OF one so very great,
They'd &c see President Hoover
He'd meet them at the gate.
And invite them in, to see
His stately mansion grand.
And perhaps he'd condeseend
To let them shake his hand.
The hardships they endured enroute
We're borne like men of war,
They ate of Stops and dry bread
And slept upon the floor.
Without a murmur of complaint
Surely We must know
The martyrs of the Hunger March
We're saints of long ago.
They We're not disappointed at the

And things worked out just right

That being true, then why the march

Why not march around the city block

And be governed by It's powers,
Then why not back to Russia go
And there enjoy the hours.
For it is certain NO one
Would miss them here,
Nor grieve about their absence
Nor demanding" powers so dear.
The way they raw about the feed loan
Would drive one most6insane,
And about the county agent
Would make a Saint profane.
The Double Cross they talk about
The One who gives them bread,
And turning then, they bite the hand
That SC recently has fed.
So, why not ship them DER the pond

To have them all deported.
God speed the day when we are free

And they have gone to Russia
To live on Bla, Bla, hash!

Yet Found

BALTIMORE, Aug. 15.-The
protein clinic at Johns Hopkins
Hospital, which specializes in
treatment of hay fever, is get
ting its seasonal influx of vic
Tins, with the start of the hay
fever season s peak today.
Physicians estimate there are
10000 900 sufferers from this all
ment in the country today. Treat
ment is a little more definite
and fruitful today than it was
years ago, but no actual cure for
the ailment has yet been found.
Hopkins doctors say the most
effective treatment is before the
hay fever season.
About $50 years ago, research
revealed the pollen caused the all
ment. Since hay was blamed. it
was called hay fever. but hay is
now considered blameless, as is
goldenrod whose pollen is too
sticky. Roses, also blamed, are
now also excepted for their pollen
is too heavy to be carried by the
air. Ragweed remains the target
for most blasphemy on the sub
ject. and today the ragweed pol
lenating season is in full swing.

Cardinal Gibbons carried
his religion into the daily toll

bore an active part in all the
public concerns of his place
and time. Movements for social
betterment found in him an
unfaiIing friend and practical

"AbOve all, the impression he
made upon the country was of
the power of gentleneSs, kind
illness and hOmely wisdom can
have, not only to shape ones
personal life, but also to influ-
ence the larger affairs of the
community and nation.
PROUD OF AMERICA
cardinal Gibbons was always
proud of his American birth
