tracts carefully for completeness and
accuracy while the applicants are at
hand to supply additional information
and make corrections.
AS soon as practicable after these
sign-up meetings have been held, the
signers in each community will be
called together to elect community
committees of three members each.
The chairmen of these community
committees will serve as members OF
the board of directors of the county
corn-hog control association, and this
board, from it's own membership, will
elect committee of three whose rul-
ings shall be final in matters pertain
ing to the corn-hog production quotas
and benefit payments of those who
agree to accept the contracts.
The need for the corn-hog reduc-
ton program, according to MIR. Nor
ris lies in the fact that the export
market for American pork and lard
has been on the decline since 1928
and the domestic market has not been
able to absorb this surplus.
"Corn production also must be re-
duced," he said, because about 40
per cent of the corn produced in his
country is fed to hogs. Reducing one
without the other would cause farm
ers to market more corn directly and
feed more to other classes of live
stock, thereby upsetting the balance
of supply and demand in those lines.
"The payment of cash benefits to
producers for making these reduc-
tions, will help to tide them over fin
ancially until the full effect of the
reduced supply upon market prices
has been realized. It is estimated
that Minnesota farmers will collect a
total of $25, 100000 to 28,OO0,O00 in
benefit payments if they cooperate
Fundamentally with the administra-
ton in carrying OFT this program"
Readers are advised to watch The
Gazette closely for future develop
ments of this program.

Signing of Contracts and Cash
Payments One Step Nearer;
Morris Will Speak

The time when Redwood county
farmers will start signing corn-hog re-
duction contracts will be brought one
step nearer Thursday, January IL
when members of the temporary
county and community corn-hog or
ganization committees meet at Wa
basso to study the details Of the con-
tract.
This meeting will be conducted by
w. E. Morris of University Farm, ST.
Paul, district corn-hog extension spe-
cialist, and Nate H. Bovee, county
agent. Equipped with copies Of the
contract and lists of administrative
rulings pertaining to it, they will be
able to answer many questions which
have been puzzling committee mem
bers. They will also instruct commit
tee members in the purposes OF the
corn-hog reduction program and the
procedure that will be followed In
carrying it out.
The next step in this program will
be the holding of public meetings at
convenient points throughout the
county at which similar information
will be given. Contract forms, incud-
ing a copy Of the contract itself, a
work sheet on which the farmer can
assemble information about his crops
and hogs to be transferred later to the
contract proper, a map form on which
he can plat his farm, and sheet on
which he can list supporting evidence
for the statements which he will
make about his crops and hogs, will
be furnished at these meetings. He
also will receive list of instructions
for filling out the forms.
Farmers who do not attend these
meetings may obtain the supplies
and information about the corn-hog
reduction plan from members of the
local committees.
These meetings will be followed by
others at which farmers, with the as
sistance Of the local committees, may
fill in their contract forms and sign
their applications. Those who wish
to sign waivers in which they agree
to accept any adjustments in their
production figures and claims for
payment which may be made by the
county adjustment committee, may
do so at this time. This agreement
will hasten considerably the time
when they will receive their first
benefit payments.
The county agents and several
trained assistants will check the con-

GroOms-to-be Don't
Want Names Published

Litchfield-The "blushing BRIDE
has a rival. Her friend husband-to-
be has taken the first place in shy
ness. OF the 20 couples applying for
licenses to marry in Meeker county
so far in 1884 more than half asked
the clerk of court to write "Please do
not publish across the. face of the
public document in his office. Only
eight grooms didn't ask this favor of
the clerk, and, in turn, of the local
newspapers who usually publish mar
riages as news. To IL men it was a
matter of vital concern that the world
at large didn't know of their honor
able intentions. The epidemic of shy
ness has broken out since the state
law of 1888 which requires a wait of
five days after the license has been
secured before the ceremony can take
place.

several weeks there were no new de-

Alice was in q panic. She blurted part
of her reasons for her fears to Kelly.
When Kelly told her ne would 60 up
to Terry's apartment, she jammed on
her hat and hurried over there her
self.
Terry had managed to get near the
door, raise his legs and begin a sys-
tematic rhythmic beating Of his slip
pered feet against the door. He kept
it up as long as he could and then
stopped to rest. He was all in, his
head was plitting. He ached, he was
sore and stiff and his throat and
mouth felt like dried pieces of parch-
ment.
After Q long wait he tried 1t again,
and paused because he heard voices
just outside his door. He heard the
lock turn and the door started to
open, and then he tainted.
When Terry recovered he had to
tell Kelly the entire story. Alice sat
beside him and held his hand while
he talked. The doctor had come
and gone and promised that nothing
serious would come Of Terry's bump
on the head. Kelly piled Terry with
questions.
so they think you know too much,
eh?" Kelly asked. And I don't think
you know anything at all"
IT don't, Kelly. really. I've just
been the victim Of circumstances"
1T looks bad" Kelly sat back
and pondered.
II don't think this attack should
get into the papers, do you, Mr.
Kelly?" Alice asked. ut would make
it dangerous for Terry"
1T will be worse for him If there
isn't something in them"
Terry turned to Alice. kelly is
right. If there Is no news item about
it this gang will wonder why. I don't
want any more Of their interest. There
was one brute this morning who want
ed to torture me-" Terry shuddered.
why not say that your apartment
was entered, you were held up and
robbed and hurt your head in an
effort to free yourself from your
bonds?"
THAT sounds reasonable" Kelly
said. I'VE can keep the real reason
to ourselves. This gang will think you
are afraid to tell the truth. In the
meantime will keep you covered and

mo. I'd like to see them In jail
once and for ALL" Terry answered
vehemently.
Most of the papers made quite a
story of Terry's experience and ran
heads saying that young newspaper
man recently suspected by the police
of completely in the base ball murders
was held up and robbed in his apart
ment." Mullins suggested that there
was probably something in the hold
up which did not meet the eye, but his
innuendoes died a natural death.
The search for Pietro and the sub
stitute bat boy went on. The Nation
was shocked by the terrible crime.
Pietro had vanished completely
There was no trace Of him after he
left his uncle's shop on Jerome avenue.
A number Of men were brought in
who were suspected of being the SUBJ
stitute bat boy, but they were all
mistakes. The descriptions were SO
meager that the possibility of his cap
ture was remote. In the meantime,
the police were working on the poison
and discovered what had been used
but refused to make 1t known to the
public. In the shaft of the bat, just
where a man would grip 1t hard, the
point of steel photograph needle
had been imbedded. The poison was
smeared over the point of the needle
The heat of Dirkin's hand had
softened and melted the poison and
the impact of the bat and ball had
forced the needle to puncture the skin
Thanks to Terry, the Boston acct
dent had been solved and it was
through his suggestion to Kelly that
the bat had been found so quickly
but any further discoveries about the
latest murder seemed beyond the
power of the police. The days dragged
by and nothing new was learned.
The public, always hungry for new
sensations, turned out in greater num-
bers whenever game was played, but
their curiosity went unappeased. For
