What Are They
Doing Without
Relief?
Case Histories of Families
Dropped From the Rolls
Presented by Star.

Following decision Of Congress to
appropriate only $3.50, 900 in place
Of the sos, 900, for which the Com
missioners had asked, the District
relief authorities announced that all
"employable" persons would be
dropped from the local relief rolls
April /. This was done.
Since then there has been no
great public outcry for further re-
lief. There have been no riots, no
disorder, no mass demonstrations.
Evictions have been few.
Was the relief demand overstated
by the relief authorities? Is the
public being lulled into false sense
Of security that all is well?
Some 400 families have been
dropped from the local relief rolls.
A few have been given w. p. A.
employment. What are the others
doing? What are their circum-
stances? How will they get along?
AT the request Of the American
Association of Social Workers the
Public Assistance Division Of the
Board of Public Welfare and the
Family Service Association, a Com
munity Chest agency, have follow
ed up" 40 cases of persons dropped
from the relief rolls.

not been available to The Star, nor
has The Star made its own investi-
CATION of the facts. At the request
OF the agencies The Star herewith
presents the last of 80 typical cases
as reported by the case workers.

The high wind and storm last night resulted in ser.ous damage to the Bellanca monoplane of the Wien Alaska A;ri,nes which was tied down to nooring cable on the summer landing field.
 The plane was ferried from Snake River yesterday afternoon to the summer landing field just north of the Hammon company shops near Dry Creek. It was securely tied with about nine ropes but about 8:30 or 5000 pm. last night the strong wind tore the ropes loose and the plane was hurled some distance away.
 The wings were damaged and the fuselage wrecked beyond use. The motor, landing gear and wing struts have been salvaged but the remainder of the plane is practically a complete wreck. No definite plans for another plane to be based at Nome were announced today by Wien re- preventative Thomas Givan. of the Nome office.
 The remains of the Bellanca plane were lowed out to the Wien hangar on the old field, where useable parts are being taken off the wrecked ship.

SHORTAGE OF
YOUNG HORSES
Minnesota VIII Have To Import
About 1880 Work Horses for
1887 Season

Neglect to breed mares between
1925 and 1888 has left the U. s.
with an excess of horses and mules
over 10 years and not enough be-
tween and 10 years of age. AS a
result, there will be national
shortage of about 175,000 horses
and 325000 mules when the 1887
work season opens up, according to
information County Agent E. G..
Lenzmeier has just received from
Wayne Dinsmore, Secretary of the
Horse and Mule Association Of
America.
"Wanted-and Stud Horses and
Jacks" is the name of the new leaf
let (No. 225) which gives complete
information about the horses and
mules in every state. Extra copies
may be obtained, free, from County
Agent Lenzmeier. 1t Is mighty in
teresting, packed full of worthwhile
information for every farmer.
Breeding is increasing, and it Is
estimated there will be about one
million horse and mule colts foal-
ed and raised this year, but death
losses in 1896 will be around 1,2OO,-
900 so there will be much need for
more good sires for some years to
come.
Farmers who are interested may
obtain a copy of this leaflet, No.
225, by leaving a request for the
same with the County Agent.

SPLENDID SPUDS

Gardeners in the city have had
their troubles this year, and many
who have watered their gardens
have not been rewarded with suf-
ficient produce to pay for the water.
Some, however, have had excellent
crops, as has been proven to the
writer by the several splendid spec
linens which have been brought to
our office recently. Among the
crops which are practically a total
failure in this community, one
might list potatoes, yet Andrew
Wicklund has raised a wonderful
crop in his garden. He brought
three dandy spuds to this office on
Thursday, and we had to take his
word for the fact that he raised
them. He stated that he plans to
enter a number of these spuds at
the fair, and we'll say somebody
will have tough competition when
they enter the field against him.
