left the farm located on an island about
two hundred yards from Birch Lake
Saturday morning when they left for
Duluth. It is supposed that Willing

u. S. Collects S674,786
of Beer Taxes in State.

Governmental revenue in Minnesota
has been considerably enriched by the
beer which came into legal existence
in the state April z.
The internal revenue Office at st.
Paul has collected s674,786 in various
forms of beer revenue during the first
month the beverage has been lawfully
disposed, an Associated Press dispatch
said. Contributing toward this revenue
were Ely and st. Louis County.
The federal collections included
$624,485 for beer stamps, $40,218 retail
tax, 1888 wholesale tax and $500
brewery tax. Federal beer stamps pur-
chased thus far at SIS barrel cover
3,870,567 gallons of brew-approximately

At last it has come. The
supreme court has decided on
disbarment proceedings against
ambulance chasing attor-
neys. This was brought about
by the acts of a Minneapolis
attorney and the court in a per
curiam decision announced that
recommendations for disbar-
ment to the state board of law
examiners would follow repeti-
tions of the chasing method of
securing business which has
been a blot on the legal pro-
fession. The court in making
its decision stated that such
tactics were a menace to the
ethical practitioner and especi-
ally to the country lawyer who
usually is the least offender.

On This
Occasion
Just a few thoughts by the Editor
on things Material and Immatertal.

Meeting unofficially the
Eleventh District Bar Associa-
ton Saturday endorsed Judge
Martin Hughes for the Federal
bench as a successor to the late
Judge William A. Cant. This
endorsement of Judge Hughes
is seconded by the unanimous
ayes of the population of the
range communities among
which the venerable jurist has
resided since the early COS.
His efficiency and capability is
attested to by his continuous
reelection to the bench of the
Eleventh District and there is
not the least particle of doubt
that his efficiency and capa-
bility would be transferred to
the Federal bench should he
be named.

Some of our exchanges are
pOking fun at the new ballot
law which provides that all
names shall be on one ballot
about the size of newspaper
page, according to the number
Of names thereon. While all
the names will be on one ballot,
the voter must confine his vot-
ing to the names in one column
and to browse around the en-
tire ticket and marking favorite
names in several columns will
invalidate the vote. We think
this will be a Godsend to those
who have not backbone enough
to call for a party ballot at the
primary and have failed to
vote on that account. They
will have an opportunity to
squeeze into any party after
election and be in line for plums
to be passed to the faithful
without anyone being the wiser.
Those who engineered the
new primary ballot made one
mistake in our way of thinking.
All those Offices now filled on
a no-party oasis, should have
been put back on a party basis
with the exception of the judi
ciary. Those elected to the
legislature then would be &C.
countable to some party and it
would not be necessary to play
to the powers that be when
they went to st. Paul. The ses-
sion just closed was supposed to
be a no-party affair but the
doings at the opening in Janu-
airy developed into a strictly
party affair. You can hardly
blame the voter for not calling
for a party ballot when the
men they elect fail to state
their preferences and wait to
see who has the upper hand
before declaring their political
principles.
Furthermore we are a firm
believer in party utilization.
We however, are not dyed in
the wool enough to think that
all the good or bad is encom-
passed in one party, but have
always maintained that a party
lends prestige to anything at
tempted in a legislative way.
We also believe that to get on
a ticket should be made a mat
ter of principle and not alone
just a filing fee. Years ago
it was the policy to get together
in party council and choose
those who were to represent us
on the ballot. The only quail
fication necessary now to get
on the ballot is the wherewithal
to deposit for the filing. The
results have been all too ap-
parent.

BUTLER FORECASTS
j. s. WAR IN ORIENT
Former Marine Says America
Will Engage Either Japan
or Russia.

BY the Associated Press.
EASTON, Md. May l1.-Speaking
before tho Del-Mar Va Volunteer Fire
mems Association here yesterday Maj.
Gen. Smedley D. Butler predicted the
United States will engage in a war with
Japan or Russia in the near future.
Japan will fight Russia" he said,
"and We will sell them munitions.
That's where we will get into the fun"
He said we would sell to both coun-
tries and "all We sell to Japan the Rus
SLAMS will sink and all we Sc to Russia
the Japanese will sink"
U. S. Has "NO Kick"
"Of course, none of these munitions
will be paid for until delivered and the
big business men will rush down to
Washington and say our flag has been
hsulted."
In addition to this, he continued, "a
few rubber -necking Americans riding
on boats where they have got no busi-
ness will be drowned and We will be in
war"
The retired Marine officer contended
we have mo kick" about Japanese oc-
cupation Of China.
II took part in the same kind Of
shebang In Colombia in 1908" he said.
I'VE wanted to build canal in Co.
lombia and the legislators wanted
$4,000 apiece. This was too much
money, so we started a revolution and
recognized the new government before
the puppet state had a name"
Preparing for Russia.
He said Japan's action in Manchuria
was caused by a need for oil and the
present fighting was to give her access
TO coal and to put her in a position
10 fight Russia.
In opening his address, Butler said
he couldn't talk about FIRE fighting, but
added Il think you people want to
know something of the next war"

WARNING TO POULTRYMEN

1t is the general practice of the
majority of local pOultrymen to
grow rye or wheat in the poultry
yards as a source of green feed for
the poultry, and to allow those
grains not fed down by the birds to
stand and head out and ripen in the
yards.
While the above green feed is
very good all poultrymen should be
warned at this season of the year
that neither wheat nor rye should
be allowed to head out and ripen in
the yards where growing birds or
laying birds have a chance to feed
on the grain while in the milky
stage or process of forming and rip
ening of the kernel. These grains in
this stage of growth have very
detrimental effect on fowl as at this
time the grain seems to have pois-
onous effect on the fowl which is
not true after the grain has COM
pleted the process of ripening.
Many local poultrymen are found
each year who are having trouble
caused by the birds feeding on grain
in the stages of growth mentioned
above and blame the trouble on
other factors or are at loss to de-
termine the trouble. Laying birds
will drop in egg production and go
into an early molt while some OF
the birds will become very thin and
die. Many poultrymen will just think
that the birds are laid out and he
accepts the matter as 1t is when he
really should have good egg produc-
ton for many weeks. Young birds
will gradually become pale and thin
in flesh, much more susceptible to
worm trouble and so-called range
paralysis. After the grain is all eat
en- or removed the birds will show a
decided improvement II worms OF
range paralysis does not get the
best of them. However 1t is by far
better and important for the poul-
trymen to NOV or plow down the
grain before it is headed out, If it is
moved before the head forms the
grain may come up again the sec
ond time and supply new crop OF
nice green feed.
Milford chronicle., 1933-05-12
COOKING TO CONSERVE
FOOD VALUES
I. VEGETABLES

Green, yellow, and orange color
in vegetables usually indicate the
presence of certain vitamins. Heat
tends to destroy some vitamins, and
when vegetables are cut up and
cooked in water somes of the min
erals dissolve. Chemical changes
due to cooking also affect flavor,
color, and texture. The science of
cooking vegetables, says the Bureau
of Home Economics, seeks to con-
serve all possible food values and
at the same time give appetite ap-
peal"
Slow baking in moderate oven
comes first as a means of cOnserv-
ing food value in cooking vegetables.
Potatoes, squash, cucumbers, tOma-
toes, and onions, for example, con-
tain enough water to form steam
and keep them moist, and the skin
holds i'm the steam. In casserole
cooking the earthenware baker, or
heavy glass container, with close
fitting lid, takes the place OF the
vegetable skin by holding in the
steam and juices.
We can steam, boil, or pan vege-
tables that cannot be baked. Steam
ing conserves food value, but spoils
the attractive green color of some
vegetables. 1t is satisfactory for
carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, par
snips, and wax beans.
Boiling requires less fuel than
baking, but greater precautions are
necessary to prevent loss of food
value. Use a small quantity of wa
ter. Have it boiling when you put
the vegetable in. Cook just long
enough to make the vegetable ten
der. -.
Green vegetables lose their green
ness very easily. SO for spinach,
brussels sprouts. green cabbage,
green snap beans, peas, turnip tops,
and kale, leave the lid off the kettle.
This allows volatile acids to escape
and preserve, the green color Do
not use soda to intensity greenness.
Il destroys some of the vitamins.
Panning is an excellent and eco
nomical method for cooking vege-
tables. Cut the vegetable into small
pieces and cook with little fat in
a fiat covered pan. The water that
cooks out evaporates, so there is. no
extra liquid, and the cooking time
is so short that the loss of vitamins
is probably slight.
