worth Of feed on farms. Moreover
on farms where government crop
loans have been taken out rats
have presented a new problem
through the damage that they are
doing to these stored grains.
The best solution for rat control,
of course, is the construction of
rat-proof buildings on farms. Need
less to say very few farmers can
begin to think of putting up many
new buildings that would be rat
proof. AS a result rat control
measures must be carried out. Thru
the extension office at St. Cloud
a limited number of rat control
demonstrations can be carried out.
Folks living in areas where no
demonstrations will be scheduled
can secure information on their
control and do their work on an
individual farm basis. Bulletins
and other material on the subjects
are available through the county
agents office.

$1,0O0'0O0 SAVED
ON STATE BUYING
COOPER REPORTS

Reviewing the results of i'm
provements in purchasing methods
put into effect when Governor
Stassen took office Miles Cooper,
director of purchases for the state,
points out in a report that has
just been submitted to the COVER
nor that the adoption of competi-
tive bidding and other changes has
saved more than $1,OO00OO in the
last year.
Total purchases made by Cooper
and his assistants exceed $12,0OO,-
900 a year, the report shows. All
supplies for state institutions,
highway supplies and all other
materials used by state depart
ments now are bought through a
consolidated purchasing bureau,
directed by Cooper under general
supervision of Leslie NJ. Gravlin,
the states new business manager,
and the bureau also must investi-
gate and pass on all contracts and
purchases of services.
Adoption of strict requirements
for competitive bidding, CONSOLE
dated purchasing and other i'm
provements, Cooper says, have re-
suited in a saving of 10 per cent
on state purchases, or 100000
over the year. He cited as an il
lustration the purchases of 1900
boxes of wire staples for S30S, COM
pared to s7,615 under prices pre-
yailinp before the improved DUR
chasing methods were adopted. On
many items he said, the cost has
been cut from 10 to 25oS.

This annual picnic of the Stearns
County Farm Bureau will again be
held at st. Johns University at

bers over the county as a group
will likewise picnic with the Farm
Bureau on that day. A very COM
plete and interesting program has

4 Call To America!

In the face of events which
threaten to shake the founda-
tions Of our world, we call our
citizens to a program for ma
tional unity.
Here in America our problems,
social, political and economic,
are becoming issues of bitterness
and conflict. Events abroad
bring home to us the failure of
human wisdom. More than any
thing else we need a new spirit
the spirit of Moral Re-Arm-
ament to mobilize the best in
everyone and conquer the fear
and selfishness in us all.
To build a fear-free, hate-free,
greed-free America we must re-
store to our democracy it's true
strength which lies in the SIM
pie virtues of faith and sacri-
flee. We must release again
the uniting power o. honest
apology and learn the secret of
listening for Divine Guidance.
Every citizen has a part. Every
one can start with himself.
We can then secure true CO.
operation in civic and state af-
fairs, between management and
labor and between nation and
nation.
May our own community take
its full part in restoring sanity
and lasting peace to the world.
Mayor s. G.. Schwarzbauer.

BIRDS BAR BACK
DOOR TO BERGGREENS-

Mrs. George Berggreen is an
extremely considerable landlady.
Her tenants are made to feel
more than welcome. For the
past five years a family of rob-
ms has chosen their domestic at
the back door of the Berggreen
home with no thought that en-
try might disrupt the happy
quietude of their estate. Mrs.
Berggreen has met the situation
with an admirable ultimatum.
No one is to get in or out of her
back door. She doesn't want
her tenants breaking their lease
