against itinerant photographers
but Worthington has an even more
effective method of dealing with
the poachers.
Saturday morning one of the
crew of IA men working" the
city called at the restaurant Of
Everett Phillips. He refused to
leave when requested to do SO and
persisted in attempting to sell to
employees while they were busy.
He finally left but returned and
continued to annoy the mattresses.
When he fatty refused to leave,
the proprietor picked up a site.
and, reaching over the counter,
put the visitor in "an extremely
unconscious condition" according
tc The Globe.
Later several of the crew pre-
scented Phillips with bill for
damages telling him he would
have to pay to avoid arrest. They
left when a police officer dropped
into the restaurant.

Work Resumed Wednesday
Afternoon; FlagstOne Walk
to be Built Today

Paving on the east bridge ap-
proach is being completed this
morning and the Woodrich con-
struction crew this afternoon will
again pour concrete on the high
way 10 approach which was par
tally paved last week.
Rain kept the crew from con-
struction activity for three days
but work was resumed Wednesday
noon. AS it is impossible under
the law to work more than eight
hours a day, construction will be
considerably slower this week.
Only one more day of work re-
mains to be put on the pilasters,
forming a part of the masonry
retaining wall and after being fin
ished they will be allowed to dry
for two days before the ornament
al iron railing connecting them
will be added. This afternoon
the fagstone walk below the Mill
street island will be laid of the
same vari-colored Morton granite
used in the wall.

Portable Housing
Units Are Proposed
For Relief Workers

L. P. Zimmerman, acting admin
istrator. SERA, proposes to keep
alive certain work projects in Min
nesota by providing portable
housing units to get men out
where the jobs are.
Application of such a plan of
mobility has been made necessary
by federal regulations requiring
that 80 percent of the workers on
progress administration projects
shall be taken from relief rolls.
Due to dismissing case loads many
rural districts cannot meet this
requirement on their work pro-
grams.
However, there is available lab
or eligible for these projects in
larger population centers. To meet
the situation Mr.. Zimmerman pro-
poses to build a large number
portable housing units which will
not only transport the workers to
the jobs but provide them with
sleeping and eating quarters.

HEAVY RAINFALL
IMPROVES CHANCE
OF BUMPER CROP
Moisture This Spring Almost
Double That of Last
Year; lisp Inches

When the skies finally cleared
Wednesday morning, N. B. Ander-
sen, Redwood Falls weather OBJ
server, found time to balance his
rainfall ledger and compare the
moisture recordings of the season
with those of other years.
He found that crops this year
have had almost twice the amount
of rainfall that fell during the
spring of 1884 and over an inch
more than in the same period IN
1888. Moisture between March L
and June 10 was included IN each
case.
Mr.. Andersen's figures show
that during the first - days OF
lime the rainfall is only about
two inches short of what fell IN
the entire spring rainy season
last year.
From March 1 of this year
through June 10, there have been
l1.52 inches of rainfall. From
March 1, 1884 through the entire
month of June, there We're 900
inches of moisture. In the same
period in 1888, Mr.. Andersen said,
1000 inches of rainfall were re-
corded.
In "a hours, from Z p. m. Mon
day until 7 p. m. Tuesday, more
than one inch of moisture was re-
corded. In the preceding three
DAYS. from late Friday night
through Monday, 2.26 inches OF
rain fell.
Farmers report no serious dam
age done by the heavy rains ex-
cept in low places as the ground
can stand a great deal of moisture
before the sun starts pouring its
extreme heat waves on the small
grain. Rye, especially is in good
condition, higher and heavier than
in previous years. Good hot wealth
er is needed for corn, however.
The year is not only unusual for
the heavy amount of rain received
but for its lack of real hot wealth
er. Only once during the year
has the mercury climbed to the 80
degree mark and that was Thurs
day of last week. In 1888, sever
al days we'll over 100 were record
ed and in 1884 the thermometer
registered over 100 only twice but
scored 90 degree marks frequent
ly before this time.

Mrs. Frank G. Hubbard of Red

enberg, proprietor, announced to-
day. Her suggested slogan was

A large number of entries were
submitted for the prize, which
was the choice of any pair of

Named to Organize State,
Establish DemOnstra-
tiOnS
Nationwide Fame Received
by Plan; to Continue
Home Here

Nate H. Bovee, Redwood county
agent, received word Wednesday
that he has been appointed by the
state department of agriculture to
lead the "War on Weeds" campaign
throughout Minnesota.
Sufficient funds are not avail
able at this time to start the
work in the entire state, it was
pointed out, but the entire 81
counties will eventually be worked
into the plan.
Mr.. Bovee and the Redwood
county commissioners have receiv-
ed nationwide publicity since the
Inauguration of the weed control
program here several years ago
and already the plan has been
adopted in many of the farming
states of the middlewest.
The new set-up will be under
the supervision of the commission
er of agriculture, R. A. Trovatten.
Mr.. Bovee will be assistant to C..
Z. Bull, special deputy to the COM
missioner.
Primary work for Mr.. Bovee
will be organizing farmers to car
ry on the war against noxious
GEOGRAPHICALLY the creeping
jenny which recently has become
a menace.
Mr.. Bovee will not resign as
county agent here but will be sent
an assistant to carry on his work
when he is called away. He will
continue to make his home here.
The assistant, yet unnamed, will
be sent here from the university
farm.
State officers met Wednesday
with the extension committee dur
ing the Farm Bureau meeting at
Wabasso. The extension commit
tee is composed of Farm Bureau
and county board members.
The allotment by the state
which covers the work of Mr.
Bovee is only a temporary set-up
to last six months. If the work
proves as satisfactory as officials
hope, it is quite possible that an
extension will be granted or a
permanent set-up made.

THE Magills in America have been
centered mainly in Maryland and
PENNSYLVANIA. However, some branches
of the first families migrated to the
South, where descendants are living
today.
The coat Of arms here illustrated
was borne by James Magill of Mary
land in 1900. The Magills were
Scotch-Irish people, and came to
America from the north of Ireland
Those in Pennsylvania were repre-
sented by two brothers, who settled
in the township of Solebury, in Bucks
County, about 1926.
William Magill was Virginia set
tier in 1745, coming from Ireland
He established his home in Augusta
County.
The color description of the coat of

match" "

NEW inventions frequently bring
y with them new names-but not
always. Consider, for example, that
indispensable implement known as a
match.
Today's common form Of match is
a small wood splint tipped with a
phosphorus or chlorate of potassium
preparation which will ignite upon
friction.
Originally, however, the match, or
as it was called among our Anglo
Saxon forbears, macche was candle
wick.
Macche is derived from the Latin
myxa, meaning lamp wick, the Latin
term, in turn, coming from the Greek
root of similar sense.
Thus, while the form of the word
has changed, as has also the object
which it represents, it has retained
its connotation as being that which
catches, holds or communicates fire.

Mrs. Reddy agreed that this was the
only thing to do. BY separating in
this manner they would be able to
cover in their hunting just twice as
much territory, and this should make
1t twice as easy for each to get
enough to keep from starving.
BE careful. my dear, and don't do
anything foolish" said she. Keep
away from strange henyards for, as you
very well know, it always is dangerous
ITO get a hen in a place with which
you are not thoroughly familiar"
"Of course, my DEAR" replied Reddy.
ct won't take any unnecessary risks.
But why did you mention henyards
lust now? The mere thought of fat
hen is enough to drive me to almost
any foolishness. II find extra good
hunting anywhere I'll come back for
you. Good luck to you"
"And good luck to you," replied Mrs
Reddy as Reddy trotted off.
He didn't stop to do any hunting
until he was far beyond the farm Of
Farmer Brown and the neighboring
farms. You see he was playing fair
with Mrs. Reddy. He was making
straight for certain farms that he had
visited once or twice long time ago,
SO long ago that he felt that they were
almost like strange places to him. Be-
yond these were other farms he never
had visited. He would visit them now,
II need be. What he most wanted
was to find a section which had not
been hunted over by other Foxes.
So it was that in the late afternoon
