Help Asked For
Starving Birds
Pheasants Face Serious Situation
As Result Of Heavy Snow and
Pr0tracted Cold

Special.-SpOrtsnpen and 9TH
ers interested In feeding pleas
ants and upland birds are here
by notified that q fund has
been started In Sank Centre
for the purpose " purchasing
feed. Donations to this cause
may be made at the Waldorf
Cafe
Reports from rural sections In
this community as well as through
out the state are to the effect that
pheasants and other upland game
birds are dying as result Of the
protracted severe cold and heavy
snow conditions, which make it i'm
possible for the birds to find food.
Farmers in this community report
many dead pheasants found in
large drifts, all Of them apparently
starved.
These birds are dieing from
lack of food, and immediate atten-
ton is necessary. Gustav Swanson,
biologist Of the division Of game
and fish, says: There is an i'm
mediate need for more funds to
feed the starving birds. Each day
the division of game and fish re-
ceive reports from wardens who
are finding birds that died Of star
walton or exposure to the cold. In
some cases starvation is not the
immediate cause, but well-fed
bird can withstand more cold than
one that is undernourished, and 1t
is Of utmost Importance that food
be provided"
Localities needing help in order
to feed game birds are urged to
communicate with their local game
wardens or directly with the div
ision Of game and fish at st. Paul.
Individuals desiring to contribute
funds may send their contributions
to M. w. Thompson, st. Paul, Aso-
ISOLATION Of Commerce, or to Rich
ard Swanson, us Colfax Avenue
North, Minneapolis. Mr.. Thompson
and Mr.. Swanson have already TAX
en- an active part in the statewide
pheasant feeding campaign and are
willing to act as a clearing house
for contributions from interested
sportsmen. Local game wardens
are also receiving contributions.

Will Complete Payments
On 1885 AAA Contracts
Deficiency Bill Authorizes County
Extension Office to Con-
| tinue Work

With the deficiency bill recently
passed by Congress and more re-
Gently signed by the president,
authority was passed on to the
county extension office at st. Cloud
on Friday, February IA, to continue
work toward the completion Of the
payments on all 1895 A.A.A. con-
tracts. AS far as wheat and to-
bacco paper are concerned all of
the details have been met prior to
the payments in connection with
both programs. On the cdrn-hog
program however, where the ma.
jority of the contracts are, the COM
pliance certificates have not as yet
been completed and sent on for
payment. This work is now being
done as rapidly as possible in the
extension office and all contract
signers can rest assured that the
payment still due on the 1885 pro-
gram will be paid without delay.
The extension office is not in a
position to state the length of time
required before the payments will
find their way out into the country.
With the money definitely appro-
priated they are now however alb
solutely certain that payments will
be made.

MANY PIPES FROZEN

Freezing of water pipes outside
the buildings has become serious
problem in the city, with thirty
nine thaw-outs reported by the
Water, Light and Power office.
The prolonged cold spell has caus-
ed the frost to reach the pipes, and
hence, all Of the trouble. It Is re-
ported that as it gets warmer the
freeze-ups will become more num-
erous. The only way to avoid
freezing is to let the, water run,
both day and night. Many have
asked about the condition Of the
fire hydrants. They have been test
ed carefully and all of them have
been found to be in good working
order. 81 -

coast.
This might make Minnesotans
dream just a little about the good
old summertime. A letter received
this week by Miss Lulu Kriesel
from Miss Anna Pflipsen, sojourn-
ing In Miami, Florida, tells inter-
esting sidelights. Making the en-
tire trip by motor bus Miss Philip
sen reports roads fair in the heavy
snow area Of the north. Moving
into Kentucky going took on an in
creasingly dangerous aspect with
heavy rains over snow. In Georgia
the rains turning into ice and
threatening floods hurried trans
portation in an effort to get
through before the break. Plans
Of hers to stop at Chattanooga,
Tennessee, were cast aside because
Of the flood. Miami she reports is
indeed a paradise. Long lines of
palm trees, orange groves, fruits
Of all sorts grace the peninsular
State. Miss Pflipsen said she had
seen the huge estates of some Of
Americas wealthy, the home Of the
Smith Brothers (of cough drap
fame), and the famous Baltimore
hotel. She plans to return to Sank
Centre about the first of next
month.

were. But, as l say, he was a very
eminent man and the viewpoint is
thoroughly justified.
What he meant involves three
things: First, that kidney troubles
are insi6ious and painless in their
onset. The kidneys do not hurt
except when stone or infection is
present. Therefore, changes may
go forward to serious extent
without the person whose kidneys
are involved being aware of them.
SO the first intimation he may
have is when, on a routine exami-
nation of some sort-say for life
insurance-the person of SO learns
that he has some renal changes.
And lastly, this is an advantage
to him in many instances, because,
as Richard Bright himself said,
where the mischief is less rooted,
we must undoubtedly do much"
The person of SO who finds these
things out, should learn to bank
his fires, to give up some part of
the strenuous life, to arrange his
diet, to rest, to avoid strain and, if
possible, in this troublesome world,
worry. We cannot rcacore the

progress of the change, but by adj
justing the body to the kidney, I

I believe added 10 to Is years to

Less Emphasis on Changes
Less emphasis is put upon the
seriousness of kidney changes than
there was 25 years ago, in my OBJ
servation, and that is a good thing.
Slight abnormalities of the urine
are not regarded as of such grave
import, and Z the diagnosis Of
Bright's disease is less frequent.
Physicians have learned to regard
the kidney changes as merely a
part Of changes over the whole
body and part of the process Of
growing old, which is merely what
happens when you live long enough
and, therefore, not so sad.
Especially salutary is the fact
that albumin in the urine is not
necessarily regarded any longer as
a sign Of kidney disease. There
are many forms Of albumin and,
as was pointed out by Bright's
chemical co-workers, there were
cases where it was $50 trifiing in
nature as to render it almost a
constant occurrence"
Many of these functional albumi-
nurias were formerly frightened
and restricted to severe diets and
to limited activity. ut is partic-
ularly important" writes a high
authority in a recently published
popular health book, Ito recognize

Of functional albufninuria to pre-

needless restrictions, as occurs

cent of 10000 male college stu
dents.
