On Saturday evening before the re-
cent election, speaker claiming to
talk in the name of the Minnesota Di-
vision of the Izaak Walton League,
under the guise of a t;llk on "con-
servation," delivered a vitriolic attack
against the Conservation Commission.
Whether the talk was authorized or
not it is hard to escape the cOnclu-
sion that it was subsidized for po-
litical purposes. There is not little
evidence. that the executive committee
of the League during the past year or
two has become political-minded-
either that or their actions have been
very peculiar, to say the least.
Governor Olson left Last week for
Washington to discuss with federal
officials plans for drouth relief. 1t
was intimated that a change in the
organization of drOuth relief with in
creased amounts would be asked of
the United States government Of
ficials. Previously at a meeting in
the State Office building in st. Paul,
group of farmers representing the
drouth areas passed resolutions de-
manding that certain changes be
made. Among the requests Of the
farmers were that federal aid be al
lotted directly to the state with the
state administering the funds; that
increases be made in the present al
lowance of $25 for ten units per farm,
and that repayment of loans by the
federal government be made in kind

THANKS, HOME FOLKS,

The home vote in Askov village.
Partridge township, and other sur
rounding townships, in the recent
election was splendid, and to have it
followed Tuesday evening by the
testimonial dinner sponsored by the
Commercial Club, exemplifying such
cordial community feeling, is most
gratifying.
The speaking, music, singing, spe-
cialty acts, decorations and last but
not least the good dinner, are all
much appreciated. We thank one and
all from the bottom of our hearts for
the wonderful reception and for this
evidence of the spirit of true cooper
alton. This occasion shall indeed go
down in our book of memories. In
that spirit of mutual helpfulness we
shall carry on in public as we'll as in
private life with thOroughness and
persistence to do our best for the
state and it's people.

BANGS DISEASE TEST
WILL BEGIN SOON

Bangs disease testing started in
Pine county with more than double
the amount of cattle signed up than
was required for the test to be car
ried on. DR.. Fretz has instructed Dr.
A. w. Nyline of Hinckley, to begin
testing as soon as he has the neces-
sary materials.
At present only one veterinarian
has received an appointment for Pine
county, so the testing will be carried
on slowly. But as more veterinarians
finish testing in their respective coun-
ties they will be available to help
DR.. Nyline complete the testing in
Pine county.
For those who haven't signed up
for the test and wish to have their
herds tested are urged by the Emer-
gency Agents office that they sign up
at an early date, so that if the sign
up should be cut off many of the
people who expected to have their
herd tested will not be disappointed.

Kilstofte. The matter of securing a
loop road through the village con-
Meeting with the new highway No. 23
just west and north of the business
district was up for discussion. The
general sentiment was much in favor
of securing such a loop and it was
decided to put the proposition on the
ballot so the voters can express them
selves. The proposition is to au-
thorize the council to levy $500 for
the purpose of securing the necessary
right of way from the Assembly hall
along the tracks over to the Standard
Oil station. The required $500 would
be spread over period of 3 years and
thus hardly be noticeable on the indi-
vidual tax statement. There was also
some discussion on the proposal Of
having the electric light and power
service wires taken off Main street
and put into the alley. The power
company had offered to do this if the
individual users of the services would
change their wiring so as to receive
the service from the rear instead of
from the front as it now is. Practi-
cally everyone along the street had
signified their willingness to do this,
so it is likely that the change will
be made in the near future.

To Show Slides.

The Junior Y. P. S. society is ell
deavoring to be of real service by
bringing into the community, from
time to time, stereopticon slides and
lectures of educational and spiritual
value. They are arranging for two
outstanding lecture slides for an early
date, one The Life of Luther" the
other, The Old Book Finding New
Friends" The latter is set of slides
picturing in an interesting way the
various processes involved in trans
lating, printing and distributing the
Scriptures, also how the Scriptures
are made available to the blind. The
dates for these stereopticon lectures
have not been ascertained as yet due
to the immense demand for them, per-
haps one will be November 2S, how
ever it is not at all certain. Admis-
sion for members of the Junior Y. P.
S. will be free, all others, sc to raise
money to cover the expense of obtain
ing the slides. 1t is hoped by the So
ciety that many will avail themselves
of the opportunity of seeing these
slides and lend their support to this
work of the Junior Y. P. S.
