WILLOW RIVER WINS
FOURTH GRID GAME

With Capt. Dunaski out of the game
most of the time because of knee in
juries, the Willow River team won
its fourth game Friday when it de-
feated the Cloquet Reserves and
reached total of 81 points to its OPP
ponents 10.
A recovered Cloquet tumble by Pc
PEEK behind their goal line gave Will
low their first touchdown in the first
quarter. A pass to Cunningham re-
suited in another in the early part
of the second frame. Just before the
half ended Husky Nelson went over
for third touchdown, but the play
was called back and Willow was pen
allied five yards for offside. So in
stead of 10 to 0, the half ended 13 to 0.
During the second half, Willow was
contented to hold to their lead against
their we'll coached opponents. On a
trick play and a long pass, Cloquet
shared one touchdown in the last
quarter.
The excellent running and team
work of Nelson. Slime. and Wood, in
the backfield, behind line composed
of Guessing, Ehmke, Popek, Mlaskoch,
Rogers, Borchardt and Brabenec, who
were always alert and on their toes,
made the score and victory possible.
The boys play at Meadowlands Fri
day and finish the schedule for this
season at Aitkin on Armistice day.

information about the goods desired
and want it on the spot. They will
not cOuntenance delay. There is some
business everywhere, even in these
times of deflatiOn, but it takes keen
minds and alert perS nalities to locate
it and get it. Complaining of hard
luck is unjustifiable. While business
is slack and little for the employees
to do, why not stir their minds to
think, and act like living PERSONAL
ties. 1t won't do to lay the entire
blame on the humble station agents.
Their acts are but the reflection of
their immediate superiOrs. They
would do better and go after business,
if they were only popped up by these
in higher authority.
This is no time to lament conditions
but it is the duty of all to have more
vision and to act earnestly for i'm
prOvement.
Less self complacency and more
serious consideration of the call of
the hour is commended to the railroad
management, who now see what is
left of the great stream of commerce
drifting away from it.

peaceful manner.

HEAVY MEAT
STOCKS ON HAND
Effort Being Made to Reduce Supplies
Before Processing Tax Goes
Into Effect.

Packers shelves are heavily laden
a weekly market bulletin issued by the
Central Cooperative Association of
South st. Paul, in spite of the fact
that this is the period when meat
stocks should be at the lowest point of
the year and time when accumula-
ton of stocks should begin.
On October 1, this year, there were
62S,965,0O0 pounds of pork in storage
houses of the United States, compared
with only 49S,253,000 pounds a year
earlier. This shows a 27% increase
over year ago, and compared with
the five year average for that date,
it is 24% increase.
Lard stocks on October 1 were 1922
$4,000 pounds, or 1719o greater than
the light stocks a year ago, at TO-
$4,000 pounds, and 1910 greater
than the five year average.
The significant factor in the storage
figures on October is that they show
substantial reduction compared with
September 1, this year Evidently a
process of liquidation has been going
on in packing centers in an effort to
reduce their stocks of meat before
the processing tax is put into effect.
Pork stocks fell off 127,736,0 pounds,
or 17fo during that month, with a re-
duction of 31,974,OOO pounds, or 14%
being noted in lard stocks.
The tax to be put into effect on
and after November 5, will be placed
on all packers stocks as we'll as on
live hogs. On pork products the tax
will be 12c per pound, and according
to the October 1 figures, this would
cost packers approximately $4,000
900.
Following the publication of Secre-
tary Wallace's Corn-Hog program
which involves a processing tax on
hogs, hog prices declined sharply
This, apparently, indicates that pack
ers are not in a mood to take unnec-
essary chances of laying in big sup
ply of expensive pork, before Novem-
Der 5. Men in the trade feel that this
has been big factor in reducing hos
prices during the last two or three
weeks.

ASKOV BARBER HAS
A RECORD DAY?

This is an age of records. Very
often one reads about this one or
that one being broken. Lindbergh
crossed the Atlantic six years ago
and became the first one to do it.
Others have broken swimming rec
ords, speed records, etc., but sell
dom if ever is a no-customer record
heard of. This is one that Harold
Dietz, Askov barber, achieved Mon
day. From the time he opened his
shop in the morning until he closed
at 6 O'Clock in the evening he did
not have customer. Harold has
been barbering in Askov for sew
eral years; is known to do his work
well and in normal and lean times
has enjoyed fair business, but he
cannot account for the cold shout
der" given him by his customers
