Liquor Store
Figures Only
Rough Guess
Council Surprised Someone
Else Has Profits for
Year Figured Out

The city fathers were mystified
last week when a press report Of
the revenue of state municipal Ii
quor stores listed Redwood Falls
as crossing $11,068 for the year,
making a net profit Of $4,000 so
far and estimating profits of $2.55
per capita for the year.
In the first place, councilmen
pointed out, no such figures are
ON the city books, as they have
not yet been computed for the an
nual financial statement. In the
second place, the store has only
been in operation for six months
and therefore figuring profit on a
yearly basis is impossible and in
the third place even the city faith
!ers will not presume to give out a
report of the, financial condition
Of the dispensary until the audit
ing committee has examined the
books and made its report-a pro-
cedure not yet gone through
September z, gross sales in the
store stood at $11, 1,O68.42, and
shortly thereafter the figure was
sent to the state liquor commits
sion in answer sto a questionnaire.
No profit figure, however, was
sent officially. and it is believed
that statisticians- depended on es-
tinnates for the number printed.
According to the commissions
report, as published, Clements
with population of 206 will net
$6.S5 per capita, crossing $1O,933
so far and making a net profit of
$4,000. Walnut Grove reported
$1,234 as a net, tsking in a gross
of $5,007 and estimated to earn
$4.20 for each of it's 586 citizens.
Gaylord took in $4,000 netting
$4,902 and its larger neighbor,
Glencoe, made $6,343 from $780,
473 gross. Marshall made $3.50
from $33,211 spent in the munich
pal store during the year while
Tracy profted to the extent of
$1,000.

Controlled Increase
In Hog Production
Desirable, Says Boss

An uncontrolled increase in hog
production . during the next few
years would doubtedly work to the
disadvantage of farmers, consum-
ers and livestock handlers, warns
Andrwe Boss, state director of
AAA programs.
On the other hand, some in
crease in production from the pre-
sent low level is desirable, he
points out, because the food shor-
tage resulting from the 1884
drouth reduced hog numbers too
severely. The best machinery yet
devised, to bring about the proper
increase is that provided by the
AAA, he says.
Welcome as it is after the feed
shortage of the drouth, cheap
corn in plentiful supplies already
is looming as a major threat to
the stability of the hog industry,
according to reports from the
AAA.
The supply of corn for each hog
threatens to be SO per cent more
by 1897 than the average for the
five years preceding 1886, if pro-
duction control should be abandon
doned the AAA announces. This
would set the stage for one of the
greatest increases in pork produc-
ton that the. country has ever
seen.
Farmers themselves will decide
what should be done about this Sit
uation when they vote "yes' or
"no", October 26, on the question:
Do you favor a corn-hog adjust
ment program to follow the 1885
program which expires November
30, 1885?
This years harvest, according to
September l government crop
report, will be over billion BUSH
els of corn, compared with only
one and one-third billion bushels
last year and an average produc-
ton of more than two and one
half billion bushels during the five
years, 1923 to 1882,

vividly remembers meeting and
talking with such noted Civil war
military commanders as General
Grant, General Thomas and Gen.
eral Nelson. Participating in the
attacks on Nashville, Atlanta and
in the battle of Shiloh, Mr.. Viii
son enjoys an enviable military
career with the Union forces. At
the battle Of Shiloh, Mr.. Wilson
was seriously wounded and still
carries the scars of that famous
engagement of the war Of the re-

36th Indiana regiment of infantry,
Union Army.
He tells of the times during the
Civil war when men paid each
other to take their places in the
army after they were drafted for
military service. Much money
passed about among these profess
sional fighters who offered to fight
in the place of someone else who
had been called for service.
Mr.. Wilson today is possessed
of a remarkable memory for a
man of "a years. The latest
photograph of Mr.. Wilson taken
when he was SO years old, shows
the vigor which this Oldest settler
still has inspite of his years. He
loves to tell Of driving to town
when the weather is good, and
states that on several occasions
in spite Of his years, he walks
from his farm to town. The young

and he attributes his present good
health to plenty of outdoor life
