Rye Sign-Up
Will Close Soon
Applications Are Still Being Ac-
cepted-Should Study Pro-
gram Details

The period for the sign-up Of ap-
plications on the rye allotment con-
tract will soon draw to a close with
the corn-hog program getting I'M
der way about January Is. The
time of the extension office will be
almost completely occupied with
the new program. Applications for
rye are still being accepted and
will be up until the corn-hog pro-
gram starts. Folks who have not
yet signed a rye allotment contract
should study the details of this
program. In this new government
venture benefit payments Of not
less than 35c per bushel are paid
on an allotment of 80 per cent of
the average production during the
base years. The base years for the
rye program are for 1930-31-32. The
contract as with wheat covers a
four year period from 1869 with
the privilege of cancellation at the
end of two years. The maximum
reduction that the secretary Of ag-
riculture may call for under the rye
program is rs per cent. Land taken
out Of production under the rye
contract can be used for any pas
ture crop.

Corn-Hog Meets
Begin January Is
May Learn Provisions of 1936-S7
Adjustment COntract-Elect
Representatives

Beginning January II, Stearns
county farmers will have an oppor-
tunIty to learn the provisions Of
the 1936-37 cornIhog adjustment
contract; to apply for this con-
tract, and to elect representatives
to administer the program in their
respective communities, announces
e. c. Lenzmeier, the county agent.
The individual farmer, IL he
chooses, may do all of these things
in only one community meeting,
instead of in two or three, as has
been the custom under the pre-
vious corn-hog programs, Mr..
Lenzmeier says. This arrangement
will not only save the farmer time
and money, but it will also permit
the community and county COM
mittees to begin sooner their work
of establishing production quotas
for each applicants farm.
Mr.. Lenzmeier and one or more
members Of the county corn-hog
allotment committee will attend a
statewide conference at Univer-
sity Farm, st. Paul, January 8,
at which the provisions Of the new
contract will be explained. They
will then conduct the educational

Fair Ground Project
Announced As OK
Officials Plan Large Work Pro-
gram Under WPA Set-up-
Little Money Required

Saturday the State WPA engin-
eer spent sometime in this city in
specting the Fair Grounds. He
voiced his opinion that a project
will be allowed as it provides the
labor that the administration de-
Sires.
Work at the fair grounds will be
practically an all-labor project and
will require very little expenditure
on the part Of local sponsors.
Since the original project of last
September, the set-up has been
changed at least four times. It
now includes mostly labor and the
erection of a costly All building
has been abandoned for more
practical structure at the grounds.
The project also includes rebuild
ing the grandstand of wood and
the moving Of barns to higher
grounds on the east side Of the
road, where they will be grouped.
Plans also include a new wire
fence, which will replace the old
one which will be used as salvage
wood.
During the past several weeks a
number of men about the County
have been interviewed with a view
Of raising the money necessary to
carry on this work, and the funds
have practically been guaranteed
from private sources.

S. C. Friday
Score Tied With Less Than
Two Minutes To Play
Final 1928
LOCALS TAKE OSAKIS
Independents Add Another
To Make Wins One
Thousand Percent

Excitement ran high in the clos
ing minutes of the game last FRI
day in which Glenwood nosed out
the locals Is to % on the home
hardwood. A game filled with close
scoring and intercepted passes it
moved swiftly along to it's close.
With less than two minutes to play
Arvig tied the score at % even, but
Edinger broke the tie with a goal
and Mattson put the 500 lads ahead
with 26.
Edinger, who closed the field
scoring, also started the old ball
spinning toward the hoop and
scored the opening bucket. Swisher,
visiting forward, tipped in nice
bank shot, and Decree tossed in
long one to open local scoring.
Decree scored last in the opening
quarter with another long that new
err touched the rim. The quarter
ended with Glenwood leading with
margin to 4. Brandon opened
with a free shot, and Edinger again
came in with a goal. Johnson,
Glenwood, capitalized on a gift shot
and Decree pumped in his third
long of the evening. Edinger tied
the score with a free shot Making
it known he was on the floor, Ar
Wig scored his first goal of the ev-
ening with a push shot taking the
pass from Brandon. Walker scored
and Mattson, rangy 500 center,
paired with him to score. Edinger
came in fast to take rebound off
the bang board and swung it in.
Walker closed the scoring for the
half with a field goal. Glenwood
led the field with IA to 10.
Edinger went down from the tip
off to score, and Mattson slipped
in one to follow. Ostrom sunk a
goal to put Glenwood decidedly in
the lead. The locals found their Of
fensive again with Walker scoring
two free throws, and Keldahl sink
ing a one hand push shot from the
foul ring. Johnson cut around the
sidelines, took the pass from his
forward and barged in toward the
basket to score. Arvig and Decree
scored in rapid fire succession as
the third quarter ended with Glen
wood leading % to 81. Decree
broke into the Glenwood offense
and with Arvig going down the
floor passed to him and Arvig
scored. With the score tied playing
became a little ragged in a desper-
ate attempt by both teams to
break the tie. Edinger finally
found the crucial moment and clos
ed the field scoring for the evening.
Mattson hung in a free bucket to
put Glenwood in the lead with 26
to rs.
Glenwood employed a fast break
ing offensive. Their most effective
play conferred around a pass into
the forward in the center Of the
floor. The forward pivoted around
and shoveled the pass to the guard
breaking around him. Crossing up
the defensive Glenwood scored
time and again on that play. The
locals have an offensive thrust that

Col. Lindbergh's
Leave America
Seek Safety Of British Isles Where
They Believe Son VIII Have
Chance of Normal Life

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Lindbergh
and son, Jon, have left America to
establish home in England
where they believe they can enjoy
safety from kidnappers and cranks.
An increased number of threats
and a growing fear Of kidnappers,
according to friends, are RESPONSE
BILE in part for their decision, as is
also the activity in behalf of
Bruno Hauptman, convicted kid
NAPIER of their first born, who was
murdered at the time of kidnap-
ping.
To a friend recently Colonel
Lindbergh expressed himself as
greatly dissatisfied with the atti-
tude Of Governor Harold G. Hoff-
man, of New Jersey, who has inter-
viewed Bruno Hauptman in his
death cell and has expressed the
conviction that there are doubts
about the case in the minds of
many persons which should be
cleared up.
The friend said Colonel Lind
bergh told him he felt he could
cope with the criminals in the Unit
ed States and with the questions
of publicity, but when the governor
became active in the Hauptmann
case, Colonel Linabergh, who at
tended the Hauptmann trial daily,
decided to leave the country.
In the British Isles, friends ex-
claimed, the three-year-old Jon
Lindbergh will have a chance for a
normal youth, without the constant
menace Of another such tragedy as
robbed the Lindberghs Of the cur
ly-haired Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr.,
for whose death in 1882 Hauptmann
has been sentenced to death.
They will retain American cit
zenship but plan to live in Eng
land an indefinite time, perhaps
permanently.
They left last Saturday at mid
night from New York on the steam
ship American Importer, freight
err Of 1900 tons with few facilities
for passengers.
Colonel Lindbergh's work as
technical advisor to Pan-American
Anyways, officials Of that company
said today, will be continued, des-
pite his residence abroad.
Lindbergh sat in the Pennington
court room at every session Of the
sensational Hauptmann trial, and
was a star witness against Haupt-
mann. One phase Of the appeal
from Hauptmann's conviction was
based on this fact, Hauptmann's
counsel contending that the pres
ence in court Of the New York-to-
Paris flier was prejudicial to
Hauptmann's interests.
