Two Mari Beds Are
Opened In County
Available To Farmers For Use On
Lands Used for Growth of
Legumes

In the last ten days two mari
beds were opened in the county to
make mari available for agricul-
tural purposes. The first of these
beds was opened on the Frank
Schmidt farm in Collegeville and
the second one on the property Of
G. d. Brewer in Section 16 Maine
Prairie township about six miles
northwest of Kimball. The county
agents office at st. Cloud with the
help of the WPA and the Soils
Conservation Service representa-
tive, A. c. Libby, of Anoka, made
this mari project possible. Under
the plan drought relief labor Is
used to dig the mari out of the pits
and haul it to stock pile on high
ground where the material can be
moved by farmers using either
teams or trucks. The governmental
agencies are furnishing the labor to
do the digging and hauling the
mari to the stock pile and the only
cost of this material to the farm
er Is 15c a yard which Is paid to
the treasurer Of the mari associa-
ton that was set up.
In the case of the association at
Avon, Frank Schmidt is the treas
urer Of the association, and the ar
rangements should be made with
him to secure whatever mari Is
needed. The Kimball association
was organized at a meeting on
Tuesday night and the party to
contact for getting mari in that
territory can be determined by ask
ing for him at the job or making
inquiries at the bank at Kimball.
At both locations there are prac-
tically 1000 cubic yards Of mari
available at this time for use on
land. The county agents office at
st. Cloud urges that folk who pro-
pose to use this material make ar.
rangements now to haul this mat
erial from the stock pile to their
farm and possibly even spread II
on the land yet this fall. Most far
mers would have more time to
move the material now than they

ed In moral way and at times fin
ancially, from its inception, and an
hour later business and profession
al men Of the village surrounded
the Bohmer home and with a con-
glomeration Of noise-making par
aphernalia gave the couple an old
fashioned charivari as an added
reminder of the happy occasion so
years ago, when they became man
and wife.
John BONNER was the son Of Mr.
and Mrs. VIM. BONNER and was
born in New Munich, where his ia
ther conducted a general store.
The family moved to Melrose when
Mr.. BONNER was II years old, and
again entered the general merch-
andise business.
Mrs. BONNER, who was a daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Haskamp,
was born on a farm two miles east
Of New Munich. Two years later
this family also moved to Melrose,
where the head of the house be-
came a general merchant.
Mr.. and Mrs. BONNER thus spent
youth, girlhood and early maturity
at Melrose, where friendship and
later romance eliminated in their
marriage on Nov. 16, 1886. They
spent eight years together in that
city and then removed to Brooten
where Mr.. BONNER established the
State Bank at Brooten. They ar
rived in the village Feb. IL, 1894.
and on Feb. %, the banking house
which has survived the ups and
downs of business conditions for
nearly half a century, was opened
for service to the community. Mr..
BONNER has been its president ever
since.
The couple have a family Of three
sons, the eldest of whom is Albert,
who was born in Melrose; Quirin
first saw the light of day at San
Jose, Calf, where the family was
visiting and Wilfred, the youngest,
was born in Brooten.
Mr.. and Mrs. BONNER have TAX
en- prominent and active parts in
the business and social affairs Of
the village and community. They
have worked for and have had the
satisfaction of seeing the town de-
velop from a hamlet to a progress
sive and sizeable village. It can
truthfully be said that much of
Brooten's advancement can be
traced directly to their untiring
efforts in boosting and extolling
it's virtues. For years the name
John BONNER and Brooten have
been synonymous.
1t is indeed fitting, then, that
they should have the good will of
the entire community on the occa-
sion of their golden wedding ami
versary, and The Review wishes to
be included among the large circle
of friends who congratulate them,
and wish them continued happi-
ness.
Out-of-town people who called
upon Mr.. and Mrs. BONNER Monday
in addition to those of the village
and nearby communities, were:
Mrs. John Peire, of Chicago, Mrs.
Elizabeth Schwartz and Mrs. Al
fonse Schwartz, of Royalton, Mrs.
Michske, of Buckman, Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Wickland, of Ortonville,
Mr.. and Mrs. w. J. BONNER and

Clothes for school children -.....--- /
A review of the two years work
of the Federation was reported, a
result of which was that five OBJ
jectives taken up by the Federation
have all been under way to be
realized. The objectives are as fol-
lows: 1. Extend the organization
throughout the country; 2. Provide
recreation throughout the country;
3. Stimulate more library reading;
4. Youth census taken up through
the N. Y. R., and 5. Clothing
drive.
There will more than likely be
another clothing drive throughout
the county, although nothing def
mite has been decided. Mr.. Dyer
Campbell spoke briefly stressing
the great need that there will be
this winter. He stated that if II
wasn't for the combined efforts OF
the commissary and the Federation
Clothing drive they would not
have been able to take care Of the
people last winter.
An excellent report was given
by a group of st. Benedict's girls
on the Mission Societies and So
ciology class. A talk was given by
Father Damien, of st. Johns in
which he explained his class of So
cial Leadership at the College. The
purpose of that is to develop lead
ers for young people and also to
educate boys in sponsoring civic
movements and to develop social
attitude toward life. The institute
of Social attitudes which is given
sponsors the Central Verin This is
for laymen and meets once a
month.
Mrs. Abeln, of Holdingford, gave
a report as did Mrs. O'Connor, of
Eden Valley.
Mr.. John Sullivan was introduc-
ed by Judge Paul Ahles and was
the principal speaker of the even
ing. Mr. Sullivan explained the
aims and ideals of the N. Y. A.
movement and stressed the fact
that any community can have an
N. Y. A. program for its youth be-
tween 16 and 25 years Of age, If
some group within the community
will sponsor a project. The High
School Girls Glee Club sang dur
ing the program and lunch was
served after the meeting.

would have at sometime
next

spring.
The digging Of the mari will only
continue for about another two
weeks and that may be another rea-
SON why 1t might be good busi-
ness for farmers to move the mari
to their own farms at this time.
Undoubtedly there will be lot of
folk using it and the supply Of l.
600 yards at each point would not
cover more than $50 acres Of
ground. From that 1t is easy to see
that the supply already dug out
can be used very rapidly.
The use of mari or ground lime
stone on light soils to make the
growing of alfalfa and other le-
gumes possible has accomplished
splendid results in other areas for
a number of years. In this particu-
lar territory little has been done
yet, although a few individuals have
used quite little material in time
past.
