the Minneapolis grain business for
many years, was killed. Mr.. Little
was riding with his wife and Mr..
and Mrs. Carl Coleman, also of
Minneapolis, when his car struck
a guard rail on highway 81, near

on a slight grade and got out to
observe the damage. His car
started rolling backward to the

Plan For Cash.
Advance on Rye
AAA VIII Announce Program
Within Week.-Wil Take
Action Before July Is

In letter dated June oath, Con-
gresham Harold Knutson stated
that he just returned from long
conference with Mr.. Chester Dav-
is, Administrator Of the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Administration,
when they went over the prospec-
tive rye crop which promises to be
unusually large. He pointed out to
him the spread between wheat and
rye prices and he agreed that If
something is not done for rye 1t
may upset the whole grain market.
The AAA is going to try to work
out program whereby they can
make a cash advance on the new
crop of rye 50 as to prevent dump
ing and unduly depressing the
market. He is hopeful that they
will be able to announce a program
with the next week or so
that will hold up the price,
prevent dumping and at the same
time give the grower substantial
cash advance on the crop so as to
enable him to hold It until market
conditions are more favorable.
They realize the emergency and
that action, to be helpful, must be
taken before July 18th.

Govt. To Buy
Dairy Products
Stearns County Farmers VIII Be
Aided Substantially BY New
Purchase Plan

Dairy farmers of Stearns coun-
ty will be aided substantially by
the plans of the Government to
purchase approximately one mil
lion pounds Of cheese, five million
pounds Of butter and five million
pounds Of dry skim milk, says E.
c. Lenzmeier, the county agent.
The agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration has asked for bids on
these commodities which will be
turned over to the Federal Surplus
Relief Corporation for distribution
to needy families. The buying will
be done under the direction of the
Bureau Of Agricultural Economics.
bids on American cheese were
opened June "a, and deliveries
must be completed before August
1. The purchases must be of us.
Grade No. 1, and storage cheese
must be aged not less than 20 days
Bids on butter were opened June
rs. and both fresh and storage but
ter will be purchased. Deliveries
Of fresh butter will be made at
weekly intervals beginning July 1.
Dry skim milk bids were opened
June 20, and only Glass A Extra"
grade for human consumption will
be accepted. Deliveries must be-
gin July and be completed by
September 30.
The AAA's decision to resume
buying dairy products is direct
result of the increased production
of milk this spring, which in turn
is an outgrowth of improved pas
ture conditions. Milk production
on June 1 this year was four per
cent greater than on the same date
a year ago, in spite of the fact
that the number of milk cows on
farms this year is about five per
cent fewer than last year.
Previous purchases of dairy pro-
ducts by federal government for
distribution to the needy and i'm
provcment of market prices Rave
totalled 67,7s4,225 pounds Of but

Local Men Held
For Chicken Theft
Were Arrested in st. Cloud Sat-
urday-Complaint Filed BY j.
SchmieSing, Owner of Birds

John Rue and Shelby Smith,
both of this community, were arres-
ted by Sheriff Art McIntee, near
st. Cloud, Saturday, and were
placed in the Stearns County Jail
pending complaints on chicken
theft. J. B. Schmiesing, farmer
living south of this city, went to
st. Cloud Monday and identified
the chickens and filed a complaint
against the men.
Rue and Smith were sleeping in
their car near the river when they
were surprised by the Sheriff and
they made their getaway just as
he was about to make the arrest.
The chase led from the banks of
the river, near the Veterans Hos
pital, through Sank Rapids and
nearly back to st. Cloud. It was
stated that Is chickens were found
in the Rue car.
For more than the past month
reports of chicken thefts were
made to the sheriff's office. Several
of them were from the Sank Gen.
tire community, while others were
made from Osakis and West Union.
Both Rue and Smith have been
under suspicion for sometime,
however, several attempts to gct
the goods on them have failed.
They were taken after formal COM
plant had been filed. George Fish,
deputy sheriff, and the police Of
ficers Of this city, have spent con-
siderable time in attempting the
capture of the chicken thieves, and
It was through their efforts that
the arrest was made.
Local folk will remember that
Rue escaped from the state high
way patrolmen about two years
ago, when the highway officers
wrecked their car in the chase.
Deputy George Fish announced
to the Herald Wednesday morning
that Rue had been placed under
S2OOO bonds and that his hearing
will be held in two weeks. Shelby
Smith was released under terms
which we were unable to learn.
