in July. and on July IA there Was
very slow T. O. b. demand.
During the 1888 season as in 1882
and 1881. f. o. b. prices on canta-
loupes were generally higher than

A 10 per cent reduction in refrig-
Grafton charges this season effective
June l, amounted to S11 per car to
New York and $3.50 to Chicago. In
addition to this, there was a re-
duction of 10c per hundred pounds

two items accomplished saving
of around 10c per crate to Chicago

Distribution Poor
Compared with other seasons, dis
trihution was poor during 1888, as
was the case in 1882. Records of
original destinations corrected by
diversions, showed movement to 100
cities in 43 states. the District CT
Columbia and several provinces in
CanaCa. This compares with 240
cities in 1892 and $40 in 1881. Dur.
ing 1899 small cities did not COM
mence buying until very late in the
season when the f. 0. D. price was
down 10 around S100. The motor
truck has changed the method o.
distribution considerably. Cars are
unloaded at central points and
trucked to nearby smaller ones.
About 25 per cent of rhe melons
were billed to New York. On July

272 cars, 173 were originally billed

deer LICENSES
NOW ON Sale
Licenses For Sale in Eighty
Seven Counties; Hunting
Only in Nine Counties.

County auditors of Minnesota's 81
counties now have for sale big game
hunting licenses for the five-day season
which opens at sunrise Tuesday, Nov
ember Il and closes at shutdown Satur-
day, November 25 Nine counties are
open for the taking of one deer OF
either sex on each license. These
counties are Cook, Lake, st. Louis
Koochiching, Itasca, Beltrami, Lake OF
the Woods, Pine and Carlton.
Hundreds of big game licenses have
already been sold with the actual sale
beginning in the Twin Cities last week
A warning notice is being issued by
the Division of Game and Fish with
each big game license calling attention
to the extra caution that will need
be exercised by hunters this season
This is due, it is pointed out. to the
short season and the curtailed open
territory which will mean a concentra-
ton of hunters. Men in Emergency
Conservation Camps will add to the
danger from hunting as majority OF
these camps are located in counties
open to deer hunting. Hunters are
urged to familiarize themselves with
hunting safety measures, making it a
point never to point gun at any
thing that they do not want to kill.

Tax Adjustment Nelgs
Won't Be Hard to Take.

President Roosevelt expects to issue
proclamation about Dec. S. to end
taxes that the treasury estimates are
producing about 1927 900 900 year.
These taxes were included in the Ma
tional Industrial Recovery Act for the
special purpose of financing the emer-
gency program Attached to them was
proviso under which a presidential
proclamation would end them-after
repeal.
Repeal officially will come on the
afternoon of Dec. S. President Roose-
welt, represented as regarding his tax
suspending proclamation as mandatory
intends TO issue it as soon as he has
received formal notification of the &C
ton which makes Utah the thirty sixth
state to ratify the new repeating con-
stitutional amendment.
The presidents proclamation will,
beginning, Jan. l, eliminate half cent
of the federal gasoline tax and the s
per cent now levied on dividends at the
source. On July l, 1884, the capital
stock tax will end and the excess profits
levy will be dropped at the end Of the
taxable year chosen by the taxpayer.
The president hopes, too, to be able to
eliminate some of the so-called mus
ance" levies-taxes on refrigerators,
automobile tires and the like. In all,
officials estimate that he wishes to do
away with nearly $500, 100000 in taxes.
But all will not be beer and shttles
for the taxpayer especially the one
who uses the new 1egalized beverages.
Administration sources say 1t viii be
necessary to raise this $500 600, 600 given
UP by levies on distilled liquors.

grubbed. The hazard from lumber
slash and other debris was removed in

brush along 211 miles of forest roads
and trails were cleaned. Better fire

struction of al miles of truck and foot
trails in forest areas. Nursery work re-
quired 1923 man-days with millions OF
seeding forest trees made available fol
the near future.
Current and gooseberry bushes, which

Fire Winter Driving Rules,

Skidding on icy or slippery highways
already has taken its toll of deaths
and injuries in Minnesota this fall.
Below are five rules to prevent skidding
which have been given to all employees
of the state highway department. They
are good rules for every driver to
remember:
l. Keep in gear. Rear wheels are
less likely to skid If they are kept
turning by the motor.
2. Apply brakes gently. Don't apply
the brakes to the rear wheels harder
than they can take them, or they
will slip. A little slip is young skid.
8. Don't shift gears unless you must.
Trouble may follow If you have to
shift gears on a hill and the road is
icy.
4. Put on chains, all around, If il
Is icy. A pair of chains costs less than
a damaged vehicle
S. Pay full attention to the business
of driving. Handle everything in an
easy manner-gas, steering, brakes-no
sudden moves If skids are to be avoided.

Employment on the
State Highways.

Approximately II 500 men in all parts
OF Minnesota have now been given
jobs on state highway work, it is shown
in reports of the Highway department.
Construction projects financed by
emergency Federal funds are providing
work for about $500, while another
5000 are employed on maintenance.
In September the number of workers
on construction jobs was only 2,4O0.
This figure has been more than tripled
in October and November. Hundreds
of teams of horses owned by farmers
also have been hired. The highest pos
sible employment win be maintained
through the winter, according to N w.
Elsberg, highway commissioner, al
though there will be a decrease from
present figures after severe weather sets
in.
Recent dispatches from Washington
announced that Minnesota led all other
states in the number of MIRA projects
approved and the number of contracts
awarded, although its allotment Of
funds was smaller than in numerous
other states.
