MICE STRIP BARK
FROM APPLE TREES

The life of the fruit tree owner
is full of worries. If it is not in
sects that damage the trees it
appears to be something else. Now
the innocent looking little mouse
seems to be developing into the big
bad wolf in apple orchards near
st. Cloud.
With the early spring thaws and
recedence of the snow comes the
discovery of a new winter menace
to orchards. A horticulturist in
that community found that the
bark of more than 20 of his prize
apple trees had been stripped from
around the base by mice. The lit
tie pests had cleaned all the bark
off below the snow level and the
ground was a regular "spiderweb'
of tunnels and passages. Approx
imately ten inches of bark is seen
to have been stripped from the
trees and this will necessitate
grating in order to restore the
sap circulation.
The only trees the mice seemed
to favor were those around which
grass had grown the previous sea-
son. The younger trees standing in
cultivated ground were not touched.

.McNUTT SPEAKS
ON YOUTH FUTURE
National Worker for League Against
War and FaSc1Sm Visits
ASkOv.

Waldo McNutt, national organizer
of the League Against War and Fas-
cism, spoke at the Askov village hall
Thursday, April 2, at 2:30 p. m. on
War Dangers" He stressed the i'm
portance of the youth in the coming
months and urged that every possible
avenue be used to organize the young
people to stop war and Fascism.
Mr.. McNutt spoke at the state con-
vention of the Farmer-Labor party in
st. Paul on the resolution endorsing
the activities of the American League
Against War and FaSciSm. His recep-
ton there and interest shown by the
delegates plainly indicated that the
people of Minnesota are against war
and Fascism and will work with any
and all groups to oppose these men
aces.
Mr.. McNutt recently resigned as the
chairman of the American Youth Con-
gress to become a full time worker
for the American League Against
War and Fascism. While chairman
of the Youth Congress he helped to
draw up the American Youth Act,
better known as the BensOn-Amlie
bill, that is now before the House and
Senate committee. The purpose be-
ing to supplant the present made
quate National Youth Administration
with measure that will take care of
all the youth. The state convention
of the Farmer-Labor party also en-
dOrsed the Youth Act. Governor Oh
son referred to it in his opening ad-
dress.
In closing his address in Askov, Mr..
McNutt stated, Its no wonder we
have the Veterans of Future Wars
and Gold Star Mothers of Veterans of
Future Wars when we see billion
being spent on ornaments and the
youth know that there is no federal
aid of any kind next year. If they
can spend money for destruction why
not try to save the oncoming genera
ton for better America

FURNISH HELP
Farmers Needing Labor AS
SiStance Asked to Make
Wants Known.
Brisk Demand for Farm
Help is Already
Reported.

WPA administrator, Victor Christ
gau, and MRS director, Drang BjOrn-
araa, announced jointly following
their recent conference at the WPA
Headquarters in st. Paul, that steps
will be taken toward meeting the de-
mand for labor by farmers and other
private employers this spring. A pol
icy in regard to farmers requests for
labor has been adopted so that spe-
cial consideration will be given to
what are termed borderline cases of
unemployment.
From every part of the state, de-
serving borderline cases of unemplOy-
ment have been called to our atten-
tion," Mr.. Christgau said. Because
of WPA regulations restricting us to
employment of persons from the re-
lief rolls, many of these persons have
continued without jobs. Mr.. Born
araa and l have agreed that border
line cases registered with the MRS
office should be given preference in
farm jobs available"
Should Make Wants Known.
MI. BJOTndTdd Sdlu ldTHeTS duu
other employers needing help should
communicate with local MRS offices,
or, if no employment office is being
operated in their county, should state
their needs to county agents who have
been delegated to represent MRS in
the matter Some counties of the
state are served on part time basis
by itinerant interviewers from dis
tIict or branch offices. The MRS
offices are located in Thief River
Falls, Bemidji, Fergus Falls, Vir-
ginia, Brainerd, st. Cloud, Monte
video, Mankato, Faribault, Fairmont
and Winona.
The employment service reports a
brisk demand for farm help, partic-
ularly in the southern part of the
state, and thus, far has been able to
fill all orders, Mr.. Bjornaraa said.
If borderline cases of unemplOy-
ment do not fill the demand for farm
labor in any locality, however, Mr..
Christgau said an effort would be
made to supply workers from the I'M
assigned relief labor lists and that
"single unattached" WPA workers
also would be available on demand to
employers.

IN
THE STREET

Nearly one-third of the $4,000
persons killed in motor vehicle &C
cidents last year were children.
Children act suddenly and on inn
pluse. They don't know what they
are going to do the next minute
and the motorist meeting them
does not know. The careful driver
watches out for childrens Here are
the most common causes of chill
dren's accidents.
1. PLAYING IN THE STREETS
Children playing in the streets
are absorbed in what they are do
ing and frequently, are unaware
of approaching vehicles. Children
playing or sitting on the curb are
liable to do almost anything, and
the careful driver must be prepar-
ed accordinwly. 1t is advisable to
avoid streets where large numbers
of children play.
2. STEPPING OUT FROM BE-
HIND DISTRACTIONS
When driving on streets where
there are parked cars or obstruc-
tions which hide the view Of the
sidewalk, the careful driver is pre-
pared for the possibility of chill
dren stepping out from behind
these distractions directly into his
path.
3. RUNNING INTO THE STREET
Dashing out into the street after
a ball is one of the most outstand-
ing cause of children's accidents
The careful driver will watch out
for the child's ball game.
4. HITCHING ON
Hitching on or begging a ride is
always a dangerous practice. The
careful driver will prohibit this on
his car.
These suggestions as to avoiding
accidents are issued by the First
Precinct Safety Officers, Detroit
Police Department.
