Producers Should
Keep Records OF
Hogs Slaughtered

Every farmer who sells or ex-
changes hog products should keep
a written record of such sales or
exchanges.
This point is emphasized by
County Agent Nate H. Bovee and
local corn-hog committeeman in
their efforts to acquaint farmers
and commercial handlers of meat
products with the facts about the
liability and collection of the hog
processing taxes.
Though producers and feeders
are not required to pay the tax
with respect to hog products from
hogs they slaughter and sell to
commercial handlers, they are liza
BILE for this tax with respect to
hog products they sell to or ex-
change directly with consumers,
except for certain exemptions al
lowed to producers only.
The producer is not only exempt
from the tax with respect to hogs
slaughtered for the use of his own
family, employees or household,
but he is allowed 800 pound ex-
emption on all sales or exchanges
made directly with consumers
when such sales or exchanges to-
tai not more than 1000 pounds
during the marketing year begin
ming November S, 1884. On more
than 300 pounds but less than
1000 pounds sold to consumers,
the producer is liable for the tax
and must file a processing-tax re-
turn. If he sells more than 1000
pounds of hog products, either to
commercial handlers or consum-
ers, he loses his exemption and is
liable for the tax upon the entire
amount of hog products he sells to
or exchanges with consumers.

Deserted Children
Start Hitch-Hike
To Relatives

Fergus Falls-Two forlorn chill
dren, deserted by their parents in
Duluth and on a long hitch-hike to
Moorhead, where they hoped TO
find their mother or father among
relatives, were visitors at Fergus
Falls recently. Left in rented
rooms in Duluth, the children con-
tinued going to school until pro-
visions ran short. After several
days they struck out, penniless,
for Moorhead. A Good Samaritan
picked them up near Brainerd.
took them into Fergus Falls where
lie purchased food for them and
bought tickets for the pair to
Moorhead. The girl gave her name
as Adeles O'Connor, age 16 years,
and said her brother Alvin was IL
years old. The children were fair
ly well clad and each carried a
package of clothing.

Marshall Produce
Plant Destroyed
By $4,000 Fire

Fire of undetermined origin des-
troyed the Marshall Produce COM
pany building at Marshall early
Thursday last week causing dam
ages estimated at from SIS, 900 to
100000. Ten motor trucks and
1900 chickens were consumed in
the flames.
Because OF a snowfall Wednes-
day afternoon which covered the
roofs of nearby structures the fire
was prevented from spreading to
adjoining buildings, the flying
sparks extinguishing themselves
in the snow.
Discovered in the basement of
the plant the blaze, famed by a
strong northwest wind, ragged out
of control of the firemen and COW
cred the building with a mass Of
flames. Intermittent explosions of
the gas tanks of the 10 trucks and
of the ammonia refrigeration sys-
tenn added to the difficulties of
fighting the fire and it was three
hours before it could be put under
control. The roof and walls of the
structure collapsed with a ire
mendous crash which could be
heard throughout the city.
Besides the trucks and chickens,
other losses included a carload each
Of feed and salt, 200,0 900 pounds of
hides, two and half carloads of
box lumber, summer supplies of
new truck tires, batteries, 81, 900
scalding machine and other equip
ment. Hundreds of spectators
were attracted by the flames
which could be seen from q dis
lance.

Youths Join Parade
It was an impressive, though
not exactly orderly, delegation. 1t
depicted too truly the inevitable
result of a system of rugged indi-
vidualism where the only gauge
of man and success is the al
mighty dollar and human labor is
considered only as a cold commod-
ity to be secured as cheaply as
possible in order to attain the
false distinction which comes with
money and enables those possess
ing it to exploit and lord it over
the exploited.
Not just the elderly and middle
aged monopolized the floor dur
ing the afternoon session. Young
boys and girls, barely past the age
of high school, joined their elders,
carrying banners and joining in
the shouting.
Too bad these frulyneedy souls
fall such easy prey to political
agitators who preach the doctrine
of destruction instead of teaching
sane and sensible reform.
Underwood Heard From
The Underwood township Bur-
eau unit has initiated system of
informing it's legislators as to its
stand in reference to various leg
islative proposals. l received, to
my pleasant surprise, a summary
of votes taken by that unit on
measures of peculiar interest to
farmers. The vote on most mea-
sures was decisive and there is no
questioning the concensus. That
is a commendable beginning an
might we'll be tried on a broader
basis. Keep up the good work,
Underwood.
That education is one of the
foremost issues in this state is
substantiated by the fact that re-
representatives. receive many let
tiers daily concerning educational
measures. The bill receiving the
most consideration is H. F. No.
1872.
1t is a measure which would
practically double the amount of
state aid given schools. This bill
has already passed the house edu-
cation committee and is now rest
ing in the appropriations commit
tee. Passage of the bill depends
upon the securing of the money to
pay additional aid from other
sources than real and personal
property. Little if any benefit
would be derived by a state levy
against property for the purpose
of re-allocation aid to schools.
Towns and Gas Tax

License Proposed
FOR Wool Dealers
Would Prevent Unfair Trade Prac.
tices-Regional Hearing Sche-
.duled at Portland, July
10 and 10

Washington wool dealers and
growers will be interested in the
regional hearing scheduled for
Portland, July 1S and 10 on pro-
posal to license dealers and prevent
certain trade practices that act to
reduce returns to growers, accord
ing to word received from the agri-
cultural adjustment administration
by Con. S. Maddox, State College
extension animal husbandman. The
license would become effective on
January 1, 1885, following nine re-
gional hearings and approval by
the secretary of agriculture.
"Wool growers have been seek
ing marketing agreement for
ksomes time as a method of restoring
fheir incomes to parity says Mr..
Maddox. However, dealers have
been unwilling to discuss market
ing agreement and the project has
been shelved. AS result the gov
eminent is considering licence
dealing largely with fair trade prac
tees and selling chrages. Both
growers and dealers will be allow
ed to present thier views at the
public hearings. The license would
be designed solely for supervision
of trade practices and selling
charges.
Twelve trade practices involv-
ing transactions between dealers or
between dealers and growers would
be listed as unfair. The license
would prohibit the sale of growers
wool on commission by any mem
Der of the trade who also buys or
sells wool on his own account. 1t
would forbid deducting an arbitr-
airy flat discount for "tags'' or 9th
err off-sort wool without reference
tothe actual conditions of the lot
being sold. Listing this practice as
unfair would prohibit making the
same deduction for lots with no
off sort wool as for lots with a
huge percentage of off-sort.
another provision would re-
quire each licensee to conflne tran
sactions in wool eieher to consign-
ment or to outright purchase and
sale. The same license applies to
mahair dealers.
