Asks Special Effort
TOCut T. B. Deaths

With an average death rate of only
1853 per 100000 from tuberculosis
during the period from 1888 to 1912
Pine county is now 9th on the list
of Minnesota counties marching to-
wards accreditation in the control of
the disease among the human popu-
lation, recent study by the Mime
sofa Department of Health discloses.
To become accredited county
must have a tuberculosis death rate
of less than 10 per 100000 and less
than Is per cent reactors to the
tuberculin test among its high
school seniors.
DR.. E. A. Meyerding, executive Sec
retary of the association, calls atten-
ton to the fact that an increase in
the tuberculosis death rate is showa
in the latest study, over the previous
one for 1936-40. He urges special
effort to overcome the wartime dan
ger of a rise in tuberculosis and
points out that eternal vigilance is
the price of victory"

Large Attendance
At East Pine Fair

With favorable weather and fine
crowd in attendance the Markvilla
community fair held at the school
house Saturday was declared COM
plete success by the committee in
charge. While the number of exhibits
was not as large as last year there
was close competition with communi-
ties other than Markville also taking
part.
Judges of the exhibits were Clyde
P. Shumway, county agent, and Mrs
Florence A. Jones, county All Club
leader. There were seven depart
ments, field and garden, fruit, fancy
work, baking, flowers, canning and
poultry.
A sports program was held durina
the afternoon, which included foot
races, nail driving and rolling pin
throwing contests, pie eating cou-
test, and horse pulling contest. The
prize for the last-named event was
donated by E. E. Houck. Donations
towards the Four-H exhibits were
made by the county Fourth Club
department and Ray Chapman and
Arthur Biork also made cash dona-
tions, all of which were appreciated
by the Arna Community club, spon-
sors of the fair.

Askov Quota For
Third War Loan
Drive Completed
Other Pine County Com
munities Also NJ a king
Rapid Progress.

Backing the Third War Loan
drive literally the Askov community
by Tuesday of this week had more
than met its quota of $1,000 with the
campaign less than week old. Pur-
chases of bonds are still being made.
and more pledges are being turned
in daily by the members of the VOL
unteer committee
1t was estimated on Tuesday
of this week that some $4,000 in war
bonds and stamps had been sold in
Pine county, this being somewhat
over one-fourth of the amount need
ed to make the "E" bond quota of
s235, 400. The county quota for all
bonds is $639,900
Fast Start.
The drive was off to fast start on
opening day, last Thursday, but pur-
chases made since the first of the
month were also credited to the
drive. The total sale of ''E" bonds
as reported to the county chairman.

Gamers Big Help
To Food Professors

Accounting for 1000 pints of vege-
tables processed by the steam pres
sure method, so loan Gamers OBJ
tanned recently by the Minnesota
Power & Light Company for the use
of housewives in this area, have been
giving good service. Ben Hedlund of
Sandstone, district superintendent,
states that if reports from the bor-
rowers are any indication of the ex-
tent of the locol food preservation
program, it is safe to estimate a 300
per cent increase in total food pre-
served as contrasted to previous
years.
Borrowers have been very pleased
and in many instances enthusiastic
with respect to using the Gamers and
the most frequent reart'on was that
of agreeable surprise at the ease and
simplicity of the steam pressure
method.

Autumn Scrap
Drive Planned

Half ton of scrap from every
farm in the northwest will be needed
this fall and winter to keep the steel
mills in operation, according to word
received this week from state salvage
headquarters.
The northwest quota has been set
at 473,500 tons of scrap iron and
steel and while some of this will come
from the industrial plants in the
area, large part must come from
the farms. The drive will get under
way about October and will con-
tinue throughout the balance of the
year.
Norman S. Olson, northwest re-
gional salvage manager, said that
every farmer will be asked to look
through his stock of repair parts and
cast aside the things for which he
has no use.
Askov American., 1943-09-16
Other Bonds Sold.

Pine City also reported the sale of
81, 600 "F'' and &c" bonds and Ker-
rick, S100 in &c" bonds.
AS the various communities send in
the reports to the county chairman
on Tuesdays and Fridays the above
report was practically for the first
day of the drive.
Committee members report that as
there are no large corporations in
Pine county, '.E' bond quotas must
be exceeded if the total quota for
all bonds is to be exceeded. Quotas
set may have been a little low for
some communities and a little high
for others, but the committee said
that the purpose was merely to di-
vide up the total amount so as to
have a mark to "shoot at" in each
community. The drive ends October

Quality Program
Shows NewCail1s
Askov High In Extra
Quality Milk For Month
OF October.

Proper cooling and clean utensils
are still the most important factors
in producing "extra" quality milk
and the dairy farmers must be able
to meet these problems during the
winter months, Arthur R. Laufen-
burger, fieldman for the Pine County
Quality Program, stated this week.
Paying Dividends.
That the program is paying divi-
dends in cleaner milk and higher
percentages of "extra" quality may
be seen in the fact that during the
period of June through August the
percentage of extra" quality was
more than double, "a per cent in
June and 81 per cent in August.
Askov finished on top in August
among the county creameries, with
78 per cent of the milk making
"extra" grade. Finlayson was close
behind with rs and Greely had II.
Other creameries were as follows:
Beroun 81, Brook Park Al, Clover
dale 81, Denham Sc, Hinckley 40,
Pine City Coop Is, Pine City Dairy
81, Rock Creek At and Sandstone
SIS.
Meeting at Hinckley.
Members of the Quality Program
held very good meeting at Hinck-
ley September when the report by
the fieldman was given. 1t was sug-
gested that every effort be made
TO help the farmers produce extra
quality milk during the winter
months. 1t was also brought out that
even though the weather is getting
colder, milk should still be cooled.

international News Review

characteristic of his attitude that
when he the other day delivered one
of his now so very rare speeches, he
made almost no reference to the loss
of his principal European ally. The
Germans were not to know how much
closer they have been brought to the
abyss of final defeat.
For international purposes, how
ever, official comments were broad
cast from Berlin, accusing the Ital-
ian Badoglio government of "treach-
ery", but it was nonchalantly hinted
that, "after all, it doesn't make much
difference, for Italy didn't mean SO
much, enyhow." This is in line with
the Hitler policy of always minimiz-
ing the loss of city for the attempt
ed capture of which he has sacri-
feed hundred thousands of men:
when it is lost, it turns out that it
really wasn't important, after all!
There is, however, no denying that
the loss of Italy as an ally is felt
by the German leaders as catastro-
phe of the first magnitude, and it
will mean that the Nazi operations
will have to undergo very consid-
cradle change.
What Next?
1t may now be assumed that, first
of all, the United Nations will con-
centrate their efforts on the attempt
to rid Italy of all Nazi forces.
When that has been done, it
is exceedingly likely that the
Americans, the British, and the
Canadians will march into for
mer Austria and from there di-
rectly into Germany itself. Ber-
lin is the immediate objective Of
the Fur0pean part of the war.
Should the Russians be able to
continue their amazing progress
against the Nazi invaders and
there is at this moment no reason to
doubt that they will = it may be
that Soviet invasion of eastern Ger
many will take place at about the
time when the Anglo-Americans

BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

Since Mussolini on July Is was
kicked out of the Italien premiership
and discarded as the leader of the
Fascist party, it has often been sug-
gested here that no matter what the
new government might do, Italy
would become battlefield; it was
argued that should the country con-
tinue fighting the United Nations, it
would be invaded and devastated,
and, in case it would surrender to
the United Nations and give up the
war, it would be attacked by its then
ally, Nazi Germany.
This has proved to be correct.
for, first, Italian soil was invaded
by the British; then, the Italian
government surrendered to the
United Nations, and, finally Ger
many began to war against its
former ally.
The surrender, announced five days
after the armistice agreement actual
ly was signed, was followed by a
German occupation of Rome and of
OIIl6T CLUES, dIlu dt tIlS SdI1S llulS
American forces were landed on the
west coast of Italy. In other words,
the country has become much more
of battlefield than it had ever been
in this war.
Fleet Surrendered.
One of the important features of
the surrender was the fact that most
of the Italian navy fell into the hands
of the United Nations.
This means, in effect, that
these nations now are, practical
ly, undisputed masters Of the
Mediterranean, and that it will
be possible for them to release
certain units of the American
and British fleets for the war
against Japan.
AS the surrender Of Italy was a
major triumph for United Nations
diplomacy and generalship, so it was
lust about the worst disaster Hitler
has suffered to date, and it is quite

Askov Rutabaga
Festival Draws S
Big Attendance
Many Take Part In Two.
Day Event Last Friday
And Saturday.

Favored with fair skies as a well
come change from the rains of other
years the 1943 Askov Rutabaga Fes-
tval last Friday and Saturday drew
a large attendance in spite of war
time travel restrictions and the alb
sence of many who have left for
armed service or defense work. An
especially large crowd was present
for the prize drawing in the evening
and the dance at the D. B. S. hall.
One of the new innovations for
this years Festival was the judging
of most of the exhibits late Fri
day evening so they were all ready
for the fair visitors the following
morning. Judging of the farm dis
plays and the livestock was done
Saturday by Mark Thompson of the
Northeast Experiment Station, Du-
luth.
Amateur Program.
MIR. Thompson also gave a fine ad-
dress during the afternoon program,
being introduced by Mayor Hans
Mosbaek of Askov. Another feature
OF the afternoon was the amateur
program, S. Owe Hermansen acting
as master of ceremonies. First prize
of S5 was won by Betty and George
Drahosh and Warren Jarvis of Fin
layson, who sang and played. Second
place, and So went to Benny Orstad
and Everett Oliver of Sandstone for
their accordion and harmonica num-
Der. There was three-way tie for
third place, three prizes of 81 each
being given, and these were won by
Lloyd Hietala of Askov, Norma Jean
Niltersen and Evelyn Sorensen of
Askov, and Ila Mortensen and Emma
Lund, also of this community.
Booths Well Attended.
The Pine City band, which was
to have taken part in the days
events, could not come because of
transportation difficulties. The other
numbers on the program were car
ried out on schedule and the various
stands and booths did good busi-
ness during the day. The display
booths were well attended as usual,
DOtl1 dl anu
donated exhibits were auctioned off
by Frling Christensen at the close of
the day..
Treasurer Hans MoSbaek of the
Rutabaga Festival announces that he
still has few Of the prize tickets
which were overlooked at the fair
and also few adjustments on pota-
toes and rutabaga prizes. These WIN
ners will be notified. Those having
tickets that have not been turned in
are asked to do so at once
The prize drawing in the evening
drew large gathering, nearly 5000
in prizes, cash, war stamps and a
war bond being distributed. The latter,
a S25 bond, donated by the Festival
committee, was won by Miss Marcia
Jensen, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
Otto A. Jensen. Following the draw
ing dancing was enjoyed, Bud Laska's
orchestra furnishing the music.

Back The attack!
Italy No Pushouer

ANY idea that the war in Europe
is in the bag and that the occupa-
ton of Italy is walkaway is be-
ing dispelled this week by the
terrific fighting on the Salerno
beach head" John H. Sarles, state
publicity chairman for the Third
War Loan drive, declared late
yesterday afternoon.
while our own men are, fight
ing for foothold, fighting and
dying, the least We can do is to
back them with our dollars. If
you have bought war bonds this
month, think of Salerno and buy
more; if you have not yet bought
bonds during the third war loan
read today's bitter news about
Salerno and dig deep. Back the
attack with every dollar you can
possibly spare. Back our men at
Salerno with war bonds"
