for that I am able TO say my
promise has been kept; that I have
been able to place the office on a
strictly business basis, Sc that it
ranks with the best in the state.
With the taxpayers point of view
constantly in mind, expenses have
been cut until the office not only
is self-supporting, but has also
made several hundred dollars over
and above expenses, all of which
is revenue to the county. And this
has been accomplished along with
furnishing courteous and efficient

Makes You Lose
Unhealthy Fat

A young woman of Norwich,
Conn, writes: "I lost 16 lbs. with
my first bottle of Kruschen. Being
on night duty it was hard to sleep
days but now since I am taking
Kruschen I sleep plenty, eat as
usual and lose fat, too"
To take off fat-take one-half
teaspoon Kruschen Salts in a glass
of hot water in the morning be-
fore breakfast-one bottle that
lasts weeks costs but little-get
it at Clements Drug Store or any
drug store in America. If this
first bottle fails to convince you
this is the SAFE and HARMLESS
way to lose fat-your money glad

Gentlemen:
Following up previous cores
pondence in regard to the growing
of flax in Imperial county, I am
wondering how far along the flax
has progressed this year. I want to
have some sent me when it is in
blossom and also when ripe.
I think I told you that it looks
as though I have perfected retting
process and I want to experiment
with some Imperial county flax as
it will mean a saving of waste and
burning if I have perfected a ret
ting process. A laboratory in the
east is undertaking to work out
the costs for me. would like to
know the temperature of water
down there during the day in sum-
mer, at night, and for day and
night in winter.
would not be surprised if
through flax we will get the whole
fibre business going in Imperial
Valley. We certainly will if my
retting process turns out as we'll
as this laboratory and 1 think it
will. No injury is done to the fibre
and that is an important item.
Did you know that a threshing
machine is made to thresh flax,
leaving the straw untouched, Just

Bronchial Troubles assi..l
 Need Creomulsion

Persistens cuusns and colds lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is new medical discovery with two-fold ac- tion; it soothes and heals the in- famed membranes and inhibits germ growth.
 Of all known drugs, creosote is recognized by high medical author ities as one of the greatest healing agencies for persistent coughs and colds and other forms of throat troubles. Creomulsion contains, in addition to creosote. other healing elements which soothe and heal the infected membranes and stop the irritation and inflammation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, and attacks the seat of the trouble.
 Creomulsion is guaranteed satis- factory in the treatment of persist ent coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis, and is excellent for building up the system after colds or flu. Your own druggist is authorized to refund your money on the spot if your cough or cold is not relieved by Creomulslon. adv.

SILO, BARNS RAZED
IN TERRIFIC WIND

The silo on the L. w. Neuschwand-
er farm on the west edge of Redwood
Falls was demolished by the gale
Thursday evening and the large barn
was moved from its foundation. No
stock was injured.
Also farther south, considerable
damage was done to buildings. The
barn on the Adolph Balko farm, five
lid one-half miles south of Redwood
Falls was twisted considerably. The
farm is occupied by MIR. Balko's sons.
1t is reported that the barn on the
Erwin Lindeman farm, one mile north
of Rowena, was wrecked by the wind
and that stock on another farm was
killed by falling timbers.
The pump house on the farm rented
by Delbert Hilbert, southeast of Red
wood Falls, was torn to pieces.
Otto Dahmes, driver and Weldon
Clements, of Clements, had peculiar
experience during the storm. Mr..
Dahmes said they were leaving the
driveway on his farm near Clements
on their way to Wabasso to attend a
meeting when the wind carried the

HALF inch OF RAIN
BREAKS HEATWAVE
REVIEWS CROP HOPE
Rain First Six Days of June is
Over Half of May Total;
Park Benefited

Slightly more than half inch Of
rain which fell in three installments,
Saturday, Monday and Wednesday,
benefited crops in practically every
section of the county, broke the heat
wave and renewed hopes that some
fields will be spared.
Although crops are by no means
out of danger, in most places the rain
was sufficient to stimulate growth
for a few days during which more
may come. Winter grains are lost in
most cases but some fields may yet
produce spring grains. Corn in most
places is said to be unframed by
drouth so far. Pastures and hay
crops were helped in many places.
The severe storm Thursday night
failed to produce more than sprin-
kle of rain here although the heat
was temporarily broken. Saturday
afternoon Redwood Falls had one
tenth of an inch and west and north
of here heavier falls were reported.
Just west of the city heavy hail
storm did some damage although fan
less than was first reported. The
hail came with unusual force, dam
aging tops of several cars caught in
the narrow strip.
Monday afternoon IL Of an inch
fell and Wednesday shortly after day.
break a drizzling rain started which
amounted to .35 of an inch after sew
eral hours. This brings the total fol
the first six days of the month to st
of an inch. The entire May fall was
81 and April had only .83 of an inch
The total for the year is 3.55 inches
compared with 4.99 which fell in May
alone last year.
Ramsey state park was benefited
by the rains which stimulated the
flow of water in park streams and
freshened the pools. The city is nc
longer dumping its sewage above the
park.

The Redwood Falls council is
sharply criticised in a statement is

ganization, knowing that they were
entitled to Judge and clerk at the
primary election, in all fairness, sell

the city council was to select two
members for judge and clerk respec-
lively. The council saw fit to turn
down every name submitted by the
bona-fide Farmer-Labor organization,
and selected two others whose party
affiliation is doubtful.
"The city council may attempt to
thwart every just move of the minor
ity party in Redwood Falls and sue
coed for a limited time, but as sure
as the sun sets in the west every I'M

people what we are fighting and will
only strengthen our just cause. In

Robinson Bruised,
Autogiro Wrecked
In Triumph Mishap
Sudden Wind Blows Plane Over
Onto Propeller Saturday
Afternoon

Jack Robinson, pilot Of the auto
giro of the Webb Oil company of
Tracy, was bruised and shaken and
the plane damaged in an accident
while landing in bayfield, near the
creamery at Triumph Saturday after
noon.
Robinson, who formerly lived here,
was landing and the autogiro had
touched ground when sudden gale
threw the craft onto its propeller.
The propeller was bent, the revolv-
ing blades above the plane were dam
aged, and the wings broken 1t is
understood arrangements have been
made to send it to the factory for
repairs. Jack returned to Tracy by
motorcar Saturday evening.
Jack received a violent shock from
the impact, but was not badly injur-
ed, although he admitted he had a
close call.
Scores of residents of the village
noted the autogiro towering over the
village in the early afternoon and
watched it descend behind the trees
into the field. So far as they could
observe the landing was perfect and
no one knew until later that an acct
dent occurred.
An autogiro has a windmill-like
apparatus revolving horizontally
above the plane which enables it to
ascend and descend almost perpen-
dicularly.

Left Without Clothing
When Home Burns

A family of five children was left
practically without clothing Sunday
afternoon when fire destroyed the
Earl Weedman home three miles
north of Revere.
The fire started in store room in
one of several additions built on the
house and gained considerable head
way before it was noticed by MEM
bers of the family who were visiting
with guests in another room.
1t was necessary to request
neighbors and friends to help the
fire and drouth stricken family. The
children range in ages from seven to
16, the three youngest being boys.
One lad sobbed as he looked at his
bare feet and realized his shoes were
in the ashes. A small amount of in
surance was carried on the household
goods.

was appointed lifeguard at Lake Red
wood by the city council at its re-
gular meeting Monday night. Other

act with one member of the school

however, to have the tower cleaned
and repaired.

ing in the interests of Frank Gerst-
man of Wabaso, asked the council
for damages the amount of which
