government to reduce their wheat
acreage. These figures are as speci-
fed in the official announcement, is
sued July "a, by the Agricultural Adj
justment Administration of the United
States Department of Agriculture at
Washington.
Other information released to DR..
Andrew Boss at University Farm, st.
Paul, in charge of the education pro-
gram of the wheat adjustment cam
paign in Minnesota, shows that for
the five-year period, 192S-1932, Pine

BANKER GOES
TO HOSPITAL
N. Perkins, Pine City, Com
mitted to State Institu-
ton Friday.
Had Been Melancholy of
Late; Was County Treas
urer % Years Ago.

Nickerson Perkins, cashier of the
Farmers and Merchants State Bank
of Pine City for % years and prev
ious to that treasurer of Pine county,
was committed to the state hospital
at st. Peter last Friday. He was
taken to the institution by Sheriff
Hannes Rypkema and Deputy John
Weber the following day.
Brooding over financial troubles
may have been the cause of Mr.. Per-
kins' illness. He had been quiet and
melancholy of late. In the morning
of the day the hearing was held Mr..
and Mrs. Perkins were in an auto
accident on the Brunswick road, about
4 miles southwest of Pine City. The
car evidently skidded in loose sand
and turned completely over. Mr.. Per-
kins was only shaken up but Mrs.
Perkins was cut and bruised some
what and is confined to the home.
Mrs. Perkins is postmistress of Pine
City.
The sanity hearing was held before
Probate Judge Robert Wilcox Friday
afternoon, with Drs. F. F. Callahan
and E.. G. Nethercott doing the ex-
aiming and giving expert testimony.
Angus M. Gum, Minneapolis attorney
and brother of Mrs. Perkins, was pres
ent as was also other parties close
to the family. The result of the hear
ing was that Mr.. Perkins was COM
mitted to the state, hospital.
Born in Pine City.
Mr.. Perkins who is SO years old,
was born and raised in the Pine City
community and has spent practically
all his life there, an honored and re-
spected citizen. He was treasurer of
the local school board, district No. 8,
for many years. Fearing the posi-
bility of any shortage and wanting
to know the definite status of the
school district finances the board or
dered man up from the State Public
Examiners office to audit the books.
The accountant is working on the
books now.
Mr.. Perkins became cashier of the
Farmers and Merchants State Bank
in 1911, holding that position con-
tinuously for % years, until the first
of this year. During the summer of
1882 the bank was amongst the many
that had depositors' agreements signed
up. This caused no little concern to
the cashier and at the beginning of
the year his connections with the
bank were severed. Mr.. Perkins has
a family of two boys and a girl, nearly
all grown up.
