FARMERcLABOR
BY A. I. Harris

In the face of a threat of the
worst forest fire since 1917, state
and national agencies moved fast
last week. Senator Elmer A. Ben
son wired Washington for federal
aid. With Victor A. Christgau, WPA
Administrator from Minnesota, he
made a tour of the stricken dis
tricts and submitted a report to
the federal government.
Thanks to Senator Benson's time
ly assistance, it is expected that
Minnesota citizens of the fire
stricken areas will receive cash aid
from WPA and aid in re-establish-
ing their homes through rural re-
settlement.
At the same time, Attorney Cen
eral Harry H. Peterson called a
special meeting of the State Exec
utive Council to consider the needs
of our northern citizens and to ap-
propriate funds for present emer-
gencies. Some Of the members of
the Executive Council attempted to
make a political football out of
, emergency aid to fire sufferers, but
Attorney General Harry Peterson
insisted that human wants and
needs came first. The Council ap-
propriated 100000 to fight the for
est fires and $4,000 for the relief
Of sufferers.
From his summer home at Gull
Lake Governor Olson authorized
Adjutant General e. A. Walsh, of
the Minnesota National Guard to
use the militia If necessary to fight
the fires or to remove residents of
threatened areas.
While there are still some today
who think an individual should
take care Of himself under all
emergencies, in the face of a ma
tural disaster such as drouth, fire
or flood, we all admit that the In
dividual is helpless unless he Is
aided by others. This is the duty of
progressive states. Minnesota will
not fail in it's duty.
The Minnesota Old Age Assist
ance law provides applicants with
ample legal means for assuring a
full and fair disposition of their in
dividual cases. Methods are provid-
ed wherein an applicant or recip-
lent who is aggrieved or dissatis-
fled with the decisions made by a
county agency, may appeal to the
state agency for hearing and ad-
judication. The division of APP
peals of the state agency is set up
and will be functioning fully with
in two weeks. Appeals from %
counties are now being considered.
All chiefs of police in towns of
$500 or more population and 81
county sheriffs are now cooperat
ing with state Bureau of Criminal
Apprehension, according to Melvin
Passolt, chief of the Bureau. There
are nearly $4,000 finger prints now
on file in the office under the same
system used by the federal govern
ment.

heifer are as follows::

heifer are as follows::
1. Twenty-Five pounds Of corn
fodder and one-half pound Of lin
seed or cottonseed meal daily. For
200 days, provide IN tons corn
fodder and 100 pounds of linseed or
cottonseed meal per head.
2. Twenty-Five pounds Of straw
or corn Slower (corn plant with
ears removed) and IN pounds Of
linseed or cottonseed meal daily.
For 200 days, provide 2h tons straw
or slower and 200 to 300 pounds Of
linseed or cottonseed meal per
animal.
When such low grade feeds as
above are fed, bone meal should
be kept before the cattle at all
times. This Is very important in
districts where the soil lacks phos-
phorus, because forage crops grown
on such soils are likewise deficient
in phosphorus.
Saving all available feed Is Of the
greatest Importance. This applies
especially to cutting drouth-dam-
aged corn for silage or fodder.
Farmers without silos can use
trench or Stat silos and can obtain
directions for making and using
these types Of silos from the county
agent.
When corn for silage is limited,
farmers may mix with 1t at the
cutter other green material such
as grass, sweet clover, alfalfa, or
even weeds, provided they are not
bitter. Not more than so per cent
of these other green crops should
be used. If needed, water should
be added to make the silage pack
well.
Corn cut for fodder should be
hauled and stacked after the
bundles have dried in the shocks.
Fodder left in the field loses feed
value through weathering. Farmers
interested in estimating their win
ter feed supply needs for all live
stock should ask the county agent
for circular, Balance the Live
stock and the Feed. Published in

tension Acts of May ana June 80.

Consider; oh friends of Sank Gen.
tire, the gift of our Father which is
in Heaven.
He had but one son, His first
born. His only begotten. Yet He so
loved the world that He gave Him
freely for our redemption Why did
He love us so? The question rings
on and on through the ages. And
yet, how beautiful, how simple, how
winsome is the story Of Redemp-
ton. BY one man, even the first
Adam, sin entered the world. Death
and judgment being suspended DER
our heads like the sword Of DOM
acles.
But the Savior, by being born
into the very family, becoming of
our sin, our flesh, our blood, put
His knock under our yoke, slipped
His feet into our shoes, stood in the
place of the world condemned, paid
the price for every man, and once
for all cancelled the debt for every
one who believes.
The question Of paramount i'm
portance today Is, do we believe in
Him? Have we accepted His so
great Salvation? We preach it at
the Gospel Tent.
Evangelist Margaret Mcmillan.

OTHER ACHES

A good deal of interest is being
shown in proposals to change the
present method of substituting
American shipping. 1t is now on
the basis of mail carrying con-
tracts given to ships by aid of Ship
ping Board loans, at the rate of
$3.50 a mile, whether they carry
any mail or not. That some other
method will be substituted for this
is reasonably certain, but the mat
ter is now a political tangle, with
the Postmaster General on one side
and some of the Senators and Rep
resentatives on the other side.
The most unpleasant news to
reach some of the boys on Capitol
Hill was the announcement the
other day that Columbia Universe
ty had granted Rex Tugwell an
other years leave Of absence from
his professional duties. There are
those in Congress who lack conf
dence, either in Mr.. Tugwell or il

bent on restoring the ancient sys-
tenn.
One authentic tale of true hero
ism comes over the cables. The
assassins were reported to have kill
ed the premier Of Japan, Keisuke
Okada. Three days later Premier
Okada turnd up, alive and unharm-
ed. The man whom the rebels had
killed at his house was his brother
law and secretary, Col. DEMO Mat
suo, who looked so much like the
premier that, when he offered him
self for sacrifice, there was NO
doubt about his identity. That in
cident reveals another phase of the
Oriental mind, its indifference to
human life, even its own.
Altogether, the japanese episode
suggests that the nation is far from
being a unit in its aggressive policy
of conquest on the Asiatic main
land.

Shortage
In Corn Belt

Des Moines, Iowa - Midwest
agronomists said the corn belt faced
a shortage of high quality seed corn
unparalleled in years, as farmers
planned their 1886 paintings,
scarcely two months away.
The agricultural experts termed
the situation serious in Iowa, ILL
nois, and Minnesota, with good seed
scarce in Wisconsin, Kansas, Ne
braska, Missouri, and South Dako-
ia.
They warned, however, against
panic buying" asserting the solu-
ton Of the problem lay in locating
and distributing the seed from
abundant areas to deficient ones
at fair prices. They advised farm
ers to test seed now, even though
tests were run in the fall.
The shortage, the agronomists
said, vas induced by a wet fall, an
early freeze in some regions, and
the severe winter which prevented
the corn from properly drying.
The high moisture content of last
years crop also caused disease.
A. ]. Surratt, federal agriculture
al statistician for Illinois, said the
seed corn situation there was the
worst since 1917.
