Many Bands To
Attend Festival
Musical Event Sunday. July 28th,
Will Be Splendid Treat
Plan for Huge Crowd

DR.. P. w. Hanson announced this
week that arrangements for the
large band festival to be held in
this city Sunday, July 28th, are
practically completed, and that
many musicians have stated that
they intend to be in attendance at
this fourth annual event of the
West Central Minnesota Band AS
ISOLATION.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hanson motored to
Hoffman Saturday where they
learned from Ralph S. Forde, dir
ector of the Hoffman and Brooten
bands, that he will direct both of
these organizations in joint con-
cert in the band shell during the
afternoon of the festival. The
Hoffman Brooten amalgamated
bands have a membership of sixty
players. Mr.. Forde is a clarinet
soloist of note, and an excellent
bandmaster and instructor.
Included in the list of bands
which will give concerts during the
afternoon, are the Alexandria City
Band, under the direction Of w. H.
the Starbuck band, with
Rev. M. Casper Johnshoy as in
structor; and the Long Prairie
Band, with c. J. O'Donnell as lead
err. The Long Prairie band, with a
membership of SO pieces, won the
first prize at the band contest at
New Richmond last month. 1t is
composed of young players, but
ranks high in the choice of music
and rendition. It will be real treat
to hear this organization.

ing at 800 o'clock, grand con-
cert will be presented by the COM
bined bands, numbering from fiji
teen to twenty organizations. Prof.
d. w. Boland will conduct this
concert.

Tobacco Growers
Vote on Contract
Tabulation Must Be Made At
County Agents Office
Before July "a

Tobacco growers in Stearns
County are now voting on whether
or not they wish to have the to-
bacco adjustment contract con-
tinued beyond the year 1885. The
tobacco contract as originally
written was a three-year contract
calling for payments for the years
1933-34-35. This came to a close
with this crop year. Ballots have
been sent to every contract signer
of the county and already good
portion Of them have been returned
to the County Agents office where
the tabulation of ballots must be
made before July u. At that time
a summary Of results must be re-
ported to the tobacco section Of
the AAA at Washington.
The tobacco producers who re-
ceived one Of these referendum
ballots and have not yet marked
the name and returned them to the
County Agents office are urged to
do so at once. Producers have a
choice Of voting Eyes" or mo" in
regard to the continuance of the
program. If a new contract Is Of
fered one Of the new features COM
templated call for the base acre
age to be the previously established
base when it is clearly evident that
such a base is about correct. II 1t
appears that the base established
is either too high or too low an up
ward or downward revision may be
necessary. The AAA aims to main
tain production at a level suffic-
iently below consumption to reduce
surplus stocks. The rate Of reduc-
ton in no case will be beyond 40
per cent. Under the old contract a
so per cent reduction was called
for in 1933-4 with 80 per cent
reduction in 1885. Payment on the
new contract II 1t is offered would
be at such a level that 1t would
tend to maintain the producers in
come from tobacco at a level equal
to the fair exchange value for the
domestically consumed portion Of
the crop.

Plant Operation
Made Impossible

Repaired Very Soon

During the high water in Sank
River the past week and due to
the temporary openings made in
the sewer for the recent test and
repair Of theoutfall sewer it has
been impossible to operate the

High water from the river ran
into the openings and made no end
Of trouble in the operation of the
plant, hence it was necessary to
plug the sewer before the sewage
reached the pump ana divert it dir
ectly to the river.
The contractor has been notified
Of the condition and has been ask
ed to come to the city as soon as
possible SO that the trouble may
be rectified and operation Of the
plant continued. He has also been
asked to repair the outfall sewer
to eliminate seepage. The members
of the Council are anxious to have
the sewer repaired very soon and
are making every possible effort to
do so.
