ASKOV

The Askov Motor Co. made two car
deals during the past week, selling
used Ford model A Tudor to Mr..
braves of Bruno, and a used model
A Ford roadster to Harry Nielsen.
John Thinesen and Wagner Jensen
left Saturday for Milwaukee. Wis,
with a truck load of furniture for
Mr.. and Mrs. Theo. C. Jensen who
now reside there. The men returned
homie Tuesday evening.
Several of the country roads have
been blocked with snow the last few
days, resulting in the school buses
having difficulty in getting around
and the rural mail service has been
quite irregular in some sections.
Hjalmar Petersen came from st.
Paul Saturday evening and visited
until Sunday evening. He says that
the legislative mill is running six
days week and from now ON they
expect to put in about two evening
sessions for committees.
As is stated in the want ad column
of this issue the American Legion
Auxiliary will serve a dinner and
dance Tuesday evening, Feb. IA.
Those desiring to purchase tickets in
advance may procure them at the
Bakery, American office. Askov Varie-
ty Store, Petersen & SOrensen and
Thorvald Andersen's Shoe Store. Ev-
eryone is invited to attend.
Through the suggestion of one of
the school bus drivers, the school
board has authorized the reinforce
ment of the floors of the buses with
material suitable to keep out the
cold so that the children's feet may
be kept warm. 1t is thought that
when this is done the children can be
kept comfortable while being trans
ported to and from school.
Henry A. Jensen and Mrs. L. C.
Petersen had a fortunate escape from
a serious accident Saturday afternoon
while returning home from a visit at
the Pokegama Sanatorium. near Pine
City. When about miles from Askov
Mr.. Jensen's coupe skidded into the
ditch and turned over one and half
times. Both occupants suffered minor
bumps and bruises but apparently
nothing serious. The car took it's
share of the rough treatment and has
been in the repair shop since.
Clarence Morgensen, Werner John
sen and Miss Anna Thomson were in
st. Paul Tuesday to see display of
the new model Fords at the Twin
City Ford plant; and incidentally also
attended the auto show at the st.
Paul auditorium. Morgensen and
johnson. the local Ford dealers, state
that the new model is a Knockout"
a "pippin" and then some. Saturday,
Feb. IL, the new model will be an
nounced to the public, and until then
all the Improvements must be kept
big secret.
Peter Petersen, formerly of Daven-
port, Iowa, and now of Minneapolis,
was a pleasant caller at the Amer
lean office Saturday. Mr.. Petersen
and two brothers were the inventors
and original manufacturers of the
Linograph type casting machine and
a few years ago had several hundred
men working for them in large fac
tory at Davenport. These gentlemen
are among the many victims of the
financial collapse and as result lost
what they had spent many years in
building up. One brother died,
second is running a small country
newspaper in Illinois and Peter is
travelling salesman with headquarters
in Hinnoora1ic

BRIGHT OUTLOOK is IN
STORE FOR BREEDERS

Rapid strides have been made with
in the past few years in the rearing
of game birds. Raising of game birds
in captivity is becoming a popular
industry.
The game breeders of this country
have already demonstrated that they
can provide more satisfactory bags
of certain species over longer seasons
than are now existent.
Particularly is this true of pleas
ants. Evidence of the ability of game
breeders to produce as many pleas
ants as are needed to provide good
pheasant shooting is gradually being
accepted by sportsmen.
The real American sportsman is
not beggar. He is willing to paw
his way. All that is necessary is that
sufficient inducement be offered the
game breeders to produce the birds.

Auto License Taxes.
Automobile license taxes and truck
taxes are still being debated in the
| committees, for there are many di.
vergent views as to just what the
tax should be. In the meantime, until
this matter is settled, the Legislature
hurriedly passed bill extending the
time limit to April list for securing
1888 license plates without penalties.
The announcement by Mike Holm.
secretary of state, that in his opinion
passenger car licenses should be re-
duced 500 and the fact that that
announcement was given considerable
publicity, has stirred up many folks
for such a change of lower auto
taxes. Others argue that automobiles
should be subjected to as much Ii
cense fee as the car would pay were
it taxed as personal property. Gen.
orally speaking, the auto license fee
is now less than if taxed as personal
property. There is, also, the matter
of bonds and interest-past debt
creations-that must be looked after
and if the bonds and interest are
not paid through auto licenses, it is
just possible that they would have
to be paid by tax levied on general
property. The minimum tax on the
inexpensive cars should, of course,
be reduced. The writer, whose bill
calls for SO minimum on the old
model T. Fords weighing under 1000
pounds, is naturally laboring to have
that reduction enacted. The license
fee on cars that are bought for be-
tween $40 and $50 has been entirely
too high at $40 minimum. If that is
reduced to So it will help the man
who really needs the help, and where
the dollar looks like a mountain. A
$14.40 automobile tax on a car that
costs $500 f. o. b. factory is not
high tax and there is also this to be
remembered, that the automobile tax,
if not out of line, can be collected.
where it is much more difficult to
collect general property taxes.
The mileage fee of seven cents has
been reduced to five cents in a bill
passed by the Senate and House.
This covers state, county, city, village,
and social district employees.
Eliminating Barriers.
Minnesota has in the past enacted
legislation against building stone and
other materials from outside of the
state being used on public buildings
in this state. Owners of quarries and
other supply men have discovered, as
the years passed, that this legislation
was both good and bad-perhaps
largely bad, for other states naturally
passed retaliatory measures with the
result that so far as public buildings
were concerned, there was a sort Of
stone wall around the state. Mime
sofa manufacturers could not sell to
other states and vice versa. A bill
has passed in the House repeating
laws which created the Chinese
Wall" around the state.
AS predicted, the appointment of
Harry Boyle of Duluth, to the position
of state tax commissioner. by the gov
ernor, was confirmed by the Senate.
There were but four dissenting votes.
Mr.. Boyle will take the place of Mr..
Armson from Saltwater, who has been
a member of the commission for "a
years.

oil ADVANCES TWICE
| WITHIN THREE WEEKS
Midcontinent Area Gets IS Cents
Per Barrel for First Time in
Months.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TULSA, Okla, July 6.-Fresh hope
'kor an area that has languished for
months under low prices for crude oil
|h chief source of State revenue and pri-
Eate income-grew today in the mid
continent area under the impetus of
the second substantial price increase in
fhree weeks.
On a basis Of 100000 barrels daily
from the midcontinent and an average
price advance of 25 cents, the new price
Structure means Sl5,000,000 additional
monthly income to producers.
Effective today, many companies be-
gan paying 85 cents a barrel, top price
In the northern half of the area. A
hat price Of rs cents in East Texas and
bn an advanced scale to 63 cents and 73
'tents in the two Panhandle Texas dis
tricts.
Other purchasers, large and small,
we're expected to meet the increase to-
day and tomorrow.
Hand in hand with the crude advance
came a strong refinery market, with
sellers virtually debating their terms.
Quotations yesterday morning were
BA cents a gallon for the low grade,
put by closing time none was available
under 4 cents and marketers were
asking Az cents as Offices opened today.
Eastern prices also responded, Penn
sylvania grades going 10 and 13 cents
barrel higher, with the Bradford
Allegany top at S17O and Ohio prices
going up 80 to 80 cents, crossing the
dollar-a barrel mark.

DRAFT IS PLANNED
/ BY SUGAR
Prepare to Submit Agree
ment to General Commit
8 tee for Debate.
Nv the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
A conference subcommittee composed
of leaders of all elements supplying the
United States sugar market prepared
today to submit a draft agreement to
the general committee for debate.
The agreement was completed yeSter-
. .day after the subcommittee labored a
HUI week, including Sunday and the
Fourth of July.
Considerable debate was in prospect,
as only one point of complete agree
ment was reached in the formula-the
arbitrary fixing of the probable domestic
sugar consumption in 1933-34 at $780,
.O0O tons
Individual estimates of production,
domestic, insular and the suggested
Cuban quota were said to aggregate
considerably higher than the total
which it was agreed would fill the
United States sugar bowl next year.
The draft agreement to be considered
under the farm relief act follows with
a proposal that the various sections
serving the United States market oe
allotted annual quotas, but goes no
further than this.
Where quotas were mentioned, blank
spaces were left after the names OF
each continental and insular division,
to be filled in if understandings to that
end can be reached in the Steering
Committee. The question of Cuba
allotment also has been held in abey-
ance, although a figure somewhat un-
der 100000 tons has been most dis
cussed
The draft plan recognizes that the
1933-34 crop already is in the ground
and nothing could be done at this time
to curtail production for the coming
year. Accordingly, it is proposed to
allow all elements to send in their full
yield, with a stipulation that all sup
plies in excess of 100000 tons be set
aside as a SURPLUS the total of which
would be calculated as factor in fix
ing the restricted crop total for the en-
suing year.
BY this method farm act admins
TRAITORS next year will have available
def1nite data on domestic consumption
and the 1933-34 production totals fol
the United States cane and beet sugar
Industries, Hawaii, the Philippines
Puerto Rico and a fair estimate~of what
may be expected from Cuba.

CARDINALS CLOSE
SEASON WITH WIN
OVER TRACY 29-7
8 Seniors Finish High School
Grid Careers In Armistice
Day Contest Here

The Redwood Falls Cardinals drew
the 1888 football curtain Saturday af-
ternoon when they took to the air TO
defeat the smaller Tracy High school
team 20 to Z before large Armistice
day crowd at the fair grounds grid
iron.
The Cards had little difficulty in
winning the annual game between the
schools. They were on the one-yard
line several times where the ball was
lost, besides making four touchdowns,
three extra points and safety. The
safety was scored when Jim Inglis
downed a Tracy punter behind the
goal line.
Little time was lost by the Cards
in their march to the Tracy zero line.
They went from the SO yard line,
where Paffrath returned the kickoff,
to the one-foot line where the ball
was lost on downs.
The first touchdown came in the
first quarter when Byram went
around end for -25 yards to the goal.
One Of the Redwood backield men
blocked Palmer Kisses try for the ex-
ira point. The second score follow
ed a series of plays which carried the
ball from the Tracy rs marker to the
vineyard stripe. Paffrath carried 1t
over on line buck. Kise kicked the
extra point.
In the closing minutes of the first
half, Kise threw a pass to Wally
Lauterbach from the 20 yard line. In
the midst of several Tracy men, Wal
ly shared the ball with the tips of his
fingers, wrenched himself loose and
raced the remaining distance for a
touchdown. He caught similar pass
in the first quarter for good gain
but the ball was called back for an
off-side penalty.
Tracy scored before the half end
ed after series of passes, the last
being thrown from the Cardinal Is
yard marker. The kick for extra
point was good.
Many Redwood Falls substitutes
saw action in the second half and the
Cards were held to only one touch
down scored by Byram who went ov-
err through center on the fourth
down. Kise kicked the extra point.
Captain Erwin "Buzz" Smith who
has played a stellar game at tackle
position all year, barely missed a
chance to score sensational touch
down in the second half. Tracy had
the ball and a lateral pass was at
tempted. The ball hit the ground and
Smith picked it up on the Redwood
As yard line and went 55 yards for
touchdown but the ball was called
back by the officials.
Eight members Of the team are
seniors in school and played their last
football game. They are Palmer Kise,
Dale Byram and Duane Mcconnell
backfield men and Albert Corbett
Smith, Blair Philbrick, J. Inglis and
Lauterbach, linemen.

the market, leakage through the
strike and imports make the strike
hopeless. All expressed Redwood's
position as favoring anything that
will benefit the farmer and declared
that regardless of their own opinions,
local dealers in~- farm produce are
willing to quit buying when majors
ty of farmers in the locality favor
closing.
The farmers holiday committee adj
mitted that Redwood county is not
yet fully organized and asked for per-
mission to hold meeting here. A
welcome was extended.
Before the conference was over, a
crowd of farmers and others gather
ed to hear the proceedings. After the
meeting group of farmers present
suggested another meeting here with
out any fiery speaker such as Solberg,
for sober consideration of the ques-
ton, inviting all farmers of the coun-
ty. The plan was adopted and the
meeting arranged.
