BY HELEN LOMBARD.

Washington's latest spy story was
brought to town by a Government
offlcial on his return from Chicago.
This official did not know whether
to laugh or become indignant when,
after comforting with members of
the Chicago Board of Trade on de-
tense business, he was told the fol-
lowing story:
A Nazi spy was ordered by his
chiefs to map plan for the eventual
aerial bombardment of the Capital
of the United States. He was told
to mark with arrows those buildings
which are most essential to the war
effort and whose destruction there
lore must be the objective of Axis
planes. The spy made a careful
survey. He gathered information
from all possible channels. After
a lengthy interval he reported to
his chiefs as follows:
1T IS really impossible to give
priority to any Washington Govern
ment building for attention from
bombers. The American are so eff
cient that they have foreseen and
amply provided against interfer-
ence with any Government activi-
ties by destruction of their agen-
cles. There are two, three or more
persons doing the same job under
dlf1erent roofs. You could there
fore destroy thirds of Wash
1ngton's desks without hindering the
American war effort"
When the final result of the
November 3 balloting came in there
was more than one WASHINGTON
agency which failed to find this
story funny. Public relations off,

Will Lend Aid In
Obtaining Repairs

c. Nieboer, Sandstone, chairman of
the Pine County u. S. D. A. war
board states that any farmer or deal
er experiencing difficulty obtaining
repairs for farm machinery essential
to the production of foods and fbers
needed to carry on the war should
notify the board. Although there is
a definite shortage of some materials
used to manufacture repairs, the
board will exert every effort to obtain
the parts needed by Pine county
farmers.
Eve have had exceptional coopera-
ton from manufacturers, dealers and
farmers" said MIR. Nieboer, "and with
their continued cooperation no serious
hardships should be caused"
Every farmer is urged to get his
machinery in shape and order the
repairs now. However, do not order
any parts not needed at this time.
Hoarding of parts will seriously ham
dicap some farmer who actually needs
them.

AskOv Cream, Plant
Taking Whole Milk

Taking in whole milk for the first
time Friday morning, the new addi-
ton to the Askov creamery is receiv-
ing an increasing volume each day,
with nearly four tons being delivered
daily at present. 1t is expected that
the cream plant will be handling
about $4,000 pounds daily within a
short time.
j. P. Madsen and Helvig Serrits-
lev have been awarded contracts for
hauling the milk, Mr.. Madsen to be
in charge of the south routes and the
latter taking those to the north. For
the present two trips daily on each
will be necessary but more may be
required later.
The whole milk is separated at the
creamery, the cream being made into
butter here as usual and the skim
milk shipped by truck to drying
plant at Rush City. When the new
milk diversion plant, to be erected
this year at Sandstone, is ready, the
milk will be taken there to be made
into powder.
The new cream separator here has
a capacity of 1000 pounds of milk an
hour and can easily handle all milk
received. All cans are thoroughly
cleaned in an automatic washer be-
fore being returned to the shippers.
Equipment ordered but not yet re-
ceived at the plant includes 500
pound scale and weigh tank and a
large size cooler.
Another full time helper will be
needed at the creamery to assist with
the additional work and applications
for the position will be received up
to 8 o'clock next Monday evening.

Stamp Booklets
To Be Issued In
Sugar Rationing
School Teachers to Assist
in Task of Registering
Minnesota Residents.

School teachers in Minnesota will
be assigned new task in the near
future when they will assist in regis
tering some 2,700,000 residents of the
state for sugar rationing and issuing
rationing stamp books for them. Com
modify ALLEGATION boards will super
wise the plan ordered by Leon Hen
derson, Federal price administrator
which will require registration of
every individual, no matter how old,
to obtain sugar.
Four Days for Task.
Henderson's order provides that
the teachers be called in to carry on
the general registration The local
defense chairman and the county
superintendent of schools will super
wise the registration, it is contem-
plated, and teachers in the rural and
graded schools will furnish the staff
for the registration. Four days will
be set aside for the registration, with
offices at schools open from to 6 and
to 9 p. m. Date of the registration
has not been set.
In registering, each person will be
required to report the amount of
sugar he or his family now has on
hand. Henderson has specified that
more than two pounds of sugar per
person on hand shall be considered
an excessive amount, and amounts
over this will be deducted from the
total allowed under the rationing
plan. This is designed to give every
body an even start.
Twenty Eight Stamps to Book.
The teachers will issue rationing
books containing % stamps, each al
lowing the purchase of a specified
amount each week from his merchant
Only one person in each family, ii
was explained, will have to apply
for the books. How much sugar each
person will be allowed per week has
not been determined, but IL ounces is
expected to be the amount
Seven days in advance of the gen.
eral registration, the commodity al
location boards, aided by high school
teachers, will register retailers
wholesalers and industries using sugar
and take stock of their needs.
