A study of muskrat population in

ton over the previous two years
Conditions of sloughs and marshes
are also to be reported upon with
particular reference to water levels.
Wardens will make individual re.

Three Other Important Associa-

Farmers Of Stearns County
have subscribed more than $4,000

Farm Loan Association, according
to A. e. Welle, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Of the association. This stock has
been subscribed to the extent Of
5 per cent Of the federal land bank

The important active associa-

the Avon association are: The
Sank Centre association, Of which

of which r. G. Neils Of st. Cloud
Is secretary-treasurer, and the
Gray Eagle association, with head
quarters at Gray Eagle and H. d.
Bergman as OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
THE fine thing about the Ma
tional Farm Loan Association"
said the secretary-treasurer, "is
the fact that it is a local cooper
alive organization. Every share
holder is a part of the association
and the loan he gets is obtained
through the help of his neighbors.
His neighbors are partly respon-
sible for the repayment Of his loan,
and he is partly responsible for the
repayment of. every loan made to
any other member"
This is true of interest INSTALL
ments and also of installments on
principal, he said, although prin-
cipal installments are suspended
for the time being, but must be re-
sumed after July II, 1888, Mr..
Welle indicated.

News Letter
lBy Harold Knutsonl

The past week in the Nations
Capitol has been quite fruitful in
interesting developments and those
who were able to get ringside seats
were fortunate.
The World Court is holding the
center of the stage in the Senate
and already some very able and eff
fective speeches have been made
for and against it. In the course
Of the debate on Thursday Senator
Long, of Louisiana, better known
as the "kingfish," took our AmbaS-
sador-at-large, Norman H. Davis,
to the cleaners. Mr.. Long charged
that Mr.. Davis has received at
least $4,000 from a foreign match
trust to help beat down the Ameri-
can tariff on matches which, if
true, should result in his being
permanently retired to private life.
Senator Schau broke into the de-
bate by stating that he had written
President Roosevelt on December
Is protesting the activities of Mr..
Davis in seeking a reduction of the
tariff on matches. Mr.. Schall said:
II was much interested a few NOM
ents ago when the Senator inform
ed the Senate that our rowing Am
bassador Davis was employed by
the foreign match companies to re-
duce the tariff on matches. I am
deeply interested IN that subject,
because in my state there is
match concern employing about 800
people. 1t not only employs that
number of people, but it supplies
the farmers of tho community with
the business of furnishing wood for
the manufacture of those matches.
This industry is located at Clo-
quet, MINI. The City Council Of
Cloquet wrote me saying that they
understood the duty on matches
would be cut in half. If this duty
were cut in half, it would put our
industry in Minnesota entirely out
of business"

said. Provision will also be made
for water storage areas for fire
fighting with actual work planned
for early spring.
Artificial control of waters in
streams and lakes is a longtime
operation because considerable data
must be collected before an accur-
ate control can be established and
maintained.
Present plans call for increased
activities in the construction of
such recreational facilities as pub
lie camp ground with fireplaces,
water tables and sanitation, spring
development, summer home sites
and roadside Identification. It is
evident that the human side of our
