FL. GROUPS
SPONSOR MEET
Many Educational Problems to
be Discussed at Virginia
Conference, Jan. FL.

The most important problems that are
now confronting the people of this
nation will be discussed at an educa-
tional conference to be held in the Vir-
GINA recreation building on Sunday.
January 81, according to tentative plans
worked out at meeting held in Vir-
GINA last Friday night. This confer
ence is being sponsored by the ST. Louis
County Farmer-Labor and other pro-
pressive groups, with L. E. Harris, super
intendent of schools at Floodwood, act
ing in the capacity Of chairman of the
meeting.
The Friday night meeting brought out
considerable discussion as to the sub
jects to be considered at the forth
coming conference and after due de-
liberation the following questions, it
was felt, were of the most vital i'm
portance to the people and will be the
subjects for discussion. They are:
1. How can we put people to work?
2. How can we keep the United
States out of war?
8. How can we raise taxes in pro-
portion to the ability to pay?
4. How can we best use our national
resources for the greatest good?
5. How can we best develop and
conserve the health of this nation?
These will be panel discussions, and
the limited subjects to he considered
will give the entire assemblage better
opportunity for discussion, it was
pointed out by Mr.. Harris and the other
members of the committee who were
working out the plans for the con-
ference.
Another feature of this conference
will be the speaking program that will
take place while the discussion leaders
are studying the various subjects pre-
paratory to bringing them before the
assemblage. Among those who have
been asked to speak at this conference
are Herman c. Wenzel, who was re-
Gently disposed as state commissioner of
conservation; Hjalmar Petersen, former
governor and now member of the state
railroad and warehouse commission;
Ray Moonan, attorney; John Foley,
former member of the conservation
commission, and Senator Robert M.
LaFollette, Wisconsin. Owing to the
fact that congress will be in session it
is hardly possible that Senator LaFol-
lette will be able to come.
1t was pointed out that with the
many panaceas that have been offered
none of which seem to have to any
great extent solved the many vexing
problems, an educational conference at
the very beginning of the present ses-
sion of congress might bring out some
thing of definite nature that might
in small degree assist the law makers
in prescribing a remedy to some of our
economic ills
The conference will start promptly
at 9 O'Clock in the morning, and will
continue throughout the day.

new Year

The Ely unit of the Aemrican Legion
Auxiliary started the New Year with
most interesting meeting last evening
Reports from chairmen of the various
committees showed a marked interest
in their work.
Mrs. Angela Pirsh, chairman of re-
Mobilization, reported so cheer baskets
had been packed and delivered fol-
the holidays. Gifts were sent to the
Auxiliary's adopted soldier at Moose
Lake and Joe Moravitz at the Veterans
hospital.
Mrs. Betty Dillon reported 80 children
had been entertained at Christmas
party. Each child received a candied
apple and a popcorn ball. Receipts from
the joint keno party with the Post
Melted $15.15.
Miss Helia Koski, unit activities
chairman, presented the following pro-
gram: Scottish song and dance in cos

thur Murphy; dance by six girls, Mary
Yakich, Margaret Yakich, Lorna
Thompson, Shirley Kari, Jane zeles-
nikar and Dolores Kozar Miss Hilda
Kotchevar was accompanies for both
dances.
The highlight of the evening was an
exceptionally fine talk by Mrs. Marie
McMahan on National Defense. She
clearly pointed out the highlights which
proved the subject was given careful
study and consideration. She closed
her remarks by the adage: To be
prepared for war is one of the most
effectual means of preserving peace"
Community singing closed the pro-
gram with Mrs. Helen Hanson at the
piano.

Will hogs fed on hybrid corn gain as
well as those fed open-pollinated
varieties?
According to experimental work,
there is no difference in the feeding
value of the two if equal in moisture
content and maturity. Many hybrids
are drier and harder, however, and hogs
seem to prefer softer corn.-H. G. zav-
oral, extension animal husbandry.
What may cause a crack in the crust
of cake? Would this be due to too
hot an oven?
A cracked crust may be due to too
hot an oven, an excess of flour, or too
little liquid. It may be caused by
using pan which is too shallow for
the amount of batter. The most COM
mon cause, however, is the one you
suggest, too hot an oven at the be-
ginning of the baking period-Ina B.
Rowe, extension nutritioniSt.
There is a pond on my farm and
the water is usually covered with an
