LAND MEN SHOULD USE PRINTERS' INK FREELY An Instance Where an “‘Ad” in the Pioneer Would Have Brought Results. The Pioneer has always advised local land dealers to advertise liberally in the columns of the Pio neer, and that such advertising will bring desired results and would result in many good sales that would accrue to the personal benefit ot the dealers, Many of the land dealers have argued that advertising in the lo- cal papers will not be beneficial; that what really brought intend- ing buyers to this section was live ads inserted in papers in other parts of the state, Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois, That the Pioneer has been right in its assertions that advertising in the local papers would pay is shown by a letter received from Sioux Falls, S. D., this week, in which C. J. Lybarger of that place says: “Please send me a copy of the Weekly Pioneer, and if there are no advertisements of real estate dealers in Bemidji, will you please give me the pame of the leading firm?” The above letter would mdncnt‘: ‘ J M,BUIRE Tu FHU“T that outsiders believe that lan men, as well as persons in this and other lines of business, should advertise in the local papers. Splendid Service Last Night. The largest audience of the week gathered at the Baptist church last evening to enjoy the evangelistic services. After a song service by the con- gregation and chorus choir, Mrs. C. E. White sang very effectively a beautiful solo entitled “Oh, Dry those Tears.” Mr. Hulett, the Detroit pastor who is helping Mr. McKee, spoke from the story of blind Bartimaeus, drawing the comparison between the work of Christ in opening the eyes of the blind man, and the way in which he restores sight to those spiritually blind. At the conclusion of the sermon several indicated their intention of leading a new life. Sunday morning Mr. Hulet will speak on “The Enriched Life,” and in the evening on “Who is Responsi- ble.” He will also give a black- board talk to the young people at the Sunday school hour. The meetings will continue every evening next week, and all are in- vited to attend. C. H. Babcock was a Crookston resident who registered at the Hotel Markham last night- IN DAIRY GONVENTION Elected Vice President State Dairy men’s Ass’'n.—Was One of the Principal Speakers. A telegram from Hutchinson tells of the annual meeting of the State Dairymen’s association, and says of A. J. McGuire, superintendent of the Northeast Experimental Farm at Grand Rapids, who participated in the meeting, and who was elected first vice president of the association. “Supt. A. .J. - McGuire of the Grand Rapids (Minn.) experimental station, made on€ of the best talks of the convention on dairy farm management. . He said the farmers were making a success of the co- operative dairy business because they were finding it did not pay to hire $30 a month men to run them, nor to stint their produciog cows of grain, “He said the ordinary dairy cow of the state is not producing within one third of as much as fair grade stock should produce. He said the standard ration of a cow, producing twenty-five pounds of 4 per cent milk per day should be twenty pounds of ensilage, fourteen pounds of clover and timothy hay and nine pounds of shorts. é *“'Supt. McGuire said the Danish people of Clark’s Grove, Freeborn county, eight miles north of Albert Lea, established the first co-opera- tive creamery May 6, 1890, and the president elected then is president yet. Butter in Albert Lea was then quoted at ten cents. Now he said, there are 722 creameries, producing 87,044,817 pounds of butter worth $18,912,042.59 per year. “Prof. T. Hecker of St. Anthony Park spoke on an extensive journey among the dairying counmes of Europe. “The officers electedtoday: Presi- dent, W. F. Schillings, Northfield; first vice president, A.]. McGuire, Grand Rapids; second vice president, E. H. Eck, Cokato; secretary, F. D. Currier, Nicollet: treas- urer, J. M. Jack, Stanley.” Northern Minnesota people are much interested in the advancement of Prof. McGuire, who has done much to deveop this section of the state and advance the dairying and agricultural interests here. W.J Lauof Minneapolis, travel- ing auditor for the Crookston Lum- ber company and other Shevlin-Car- penter interests, will leave tonight for his home in Minneapoli$, after having spent thelast two days in Bemidji checking the accounts of the local office of the Crookston company. The Largest Institution of Three Notahle Events in Merchandising Visit This Exclusive its Kind in Northern Min- nesota. The Half Price Sale, the January Women’s and Children’s Store. Out Clearing and the Mid Winter Sale More than a few people are “tript up” by fictitious advertised sales, “the special kind,” espec1ally about this time of the year. The ounce of preven- tion should be---shop in a safe store where honest advertising is the iron clad rule. The above triple-alliance of sales have had their first “try out.” But this was the mere initiation. They are virtually the January housé cleaning and they will go right along.

BILLINGS BASKETBALL BUNGH BADLY BEATEN Ascensions of Minneapolis and the Red Wing Team Exceedingly Discour- teous to Visitors. The Billings Basketball Bunch has been running against some “snags” since they left this section, in the matter of winning pames. At Minneapolis Thursday night, the Ascension team of the “Mill City” defeated the Montana boys, by a score of 46 to 12. McElmeel, who played with “Big Bemidg” for several games, was in the Ascension line-up. He played a whirlwind, game throwing eight baskets. The St. Paul Pioneer Press says of the game: “After winning every game they had played on their trip from Mon- tana the crack Billings team went down to defeat at the hands of the Ascensions at the latter’s ‘gym’ in Minneapolis last evening by a score of 46 to 12. “It was a walkaway all the way, the Mill City quint having things all their own way from whistle to whistle.” Red Wing 53, Billings 12, Last night, at Red Wing, the old home of E. P. Neill, manager of the Billings Basketball team, the Red Wing team gave the Montana bunch a very discourteous reception, scor- ing 53 points to their adversary’s 12. This is the second defeat for the Billings team, and it must have been quite a Dbitter pill to swallow, as Manager Neill very much desired to win the game in his old baliwick. Dispite the two defeats given above, the Billings team has proven itself a very strong organi- zation, It is possible that the boys have played so frequently since they left Billings that they are becoming somewhat stale, which would account for the com- paratively easy manner in which the Ascensions and the ‘Red Wingers” won their games.

PLANTS Province Will Construct Them if Farm- ers Supply Live Stock. Ottawa, Ont, Jan. 22.—Premier | Rutherford has just made an impor- tant announcement to the farmers of Alberta. Rutherford and Minister of Agriculture Marshall, at Edmonton, imet 160 delegates representing farm- ing interests from all parts of Al berta. The premier gave official assurance' that the Alberta government would establish a system of pork packing plants as soon as possible, provided the farmers would give a guarantee to furnish the necessary animals to keep the plant running. At present the plants in existence cannot get enough hogs. [y GREEK BOYS T0 BE DEPORTED Immigration - Authorities Find Child Labor Law Violated. Galveston, Tex., Jan. 22.—Two hun- dred Greek boys from nine to fifteen |years old are being brought from a dozen Texas cities and will be sent back to their own country. The bureau of immigration has or- dered them deported -because, it is alleged, they were brought here and held in violation of the alien contract fabor_law and the child labor act. Steel Trust to Make Cement. Chicago, Jan. - 22.—Announcement is made that the United Stutes Steel corporation has authorized the ex- penditure of $2,450,000 for the con- struction of an additional cement MAY REFUSE TO AGCEPT CONTROL British Liberals Must Have Majority of Forty. LIKELY TO BE MUCH LESS If Conservative Gains Continue at Present Ratio the Asquith Govern- ment Will Have Only Eleven Votes to Spare—New Situation Threatens to Result in Disturbance ‘of Busi- ness for an Indefinite Time. London, Jan. 22—Twenty-five re- turns just made out of the thirty-five left over from Thursday’s elections for parliament give the Unionists thir- teen seats, the Liberals ten, Laborites one and Irish Nationalists one, a Un- fonist gain of six seats without any losses. It was officially announced at Labor headquarters that unless the Liberals and Laborites, without the aid of the Irish Nationalists, have a minimum majority over the Conservatives of forty they will not accept the minis- terial control. This decision has caused great excitement, as it is thought the majority will not exceed this figure. If the Liberals make good thelr threat the new parliament would prob- ably sit about a week, Herbert Asquith retaining the premiership for adminis- trative convenience. The most seri- ous aspect of the new situation is that it will continue indefinitely the pres- ent paralysis of business. If the Con- servatives continue to gain seats at Thursday’s ratio the Liberal coalition will have a majority of only eleven. Such a majority is considered inade- quate to assist in carrying out the party’s programme. The closeness of the race is increasing- the violence and serious riots are almost hourly occurring. F. D. Ackland, financial secretary of the war ofiice, was seriously injured by being stoned and knocked from his automobile. He was making a speech in behalf of his own Liberal candidacy in Yorkshire. Among the prominent candidates de- feated in Thursday’s voting were J. A. Pease, chief “whip” of the Liberals, position corresponding to congression- al floor leader in the American con- gress; Victor Grayson, a prominent Laborite, and Lief Jones, national Pro- hibition leader. Grayson was defeated by the votes of the Liberals, who con- sidered him too socialistic to include in the Liberal-Labor policy. NO STREET CAR STRIKE YET Leader of Philadélphia Union Hopes to Arbitrate Difficulty. Philadelphia, Jan. 22.—Although more than 5,000 motormen and con- ductors of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company voted last Tuesday in favor of a strike the men are still at their posts and all the lines of the company are running on their usual schedules. ‘C. O. Pratt, who has been authorized by the executive commit- tees of both the local and the national bodies to give the word which will put the proposed strike into effect, Is still holding back, hoping that the threat- ened trouble may yet be averted. Pratt said: “The men’s grievances will be set- tled by arbitration. "If the officials of the company and the members of the union fail to' agree on any individual who can arbitrate the differences the people will have to be the umpire.” The last communication received by the union men from the company holds little hope for a peaceful ending of the trouble. LAWYER’S FEE IS IMMENSE Paid $760,000 for Work in Connection With Copper Merger. New York, Jan. 22.—The fee which Samuel Untermyer of the law firm of Guggenheimer, Untermyer & Marshall will receive for his work in connection with the proposed merger of the. Bos- ton Consolidated Copper company with the Utah Copper company will amount to $760,000, according to Charles W. Graham and Colonel E. A. ‘Wall, the Utah stockholders who got a federal injunction prohibiting the stockholders’ ratification of the mer- ger. SWEEPING RAPIDLY OVER THE GOUNTRY Boycott on High Priced Food Extends to Many States. Chicago, Jan. 22.—The boycott on high food prices started in Cleveland a week ago is growing rapidly. Illi- nois, Missouri, Wisconsin, Towa, Ne- braska and Michigan now are included in the ranks of the crusaders in the West, while in the East Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Delaware are lifting their voices in feebler protests. Ohio, however, still is the strong- hold of the movement. The Cleveland oycott has extended to Canton, where the Central Labor union has adopted a ‘“no meat” resolution and petitions are being circulated with surprising results at Columbus, where a strong boycott has been organized, and To- ledo, Akron and other cities of the state. The crusade in Ohio has found en- couragement in the publicly expressed belief of Governor Harmon that a food trust is gobbling excessive profits somewhere between the producer and the consumer. He has called on the legislature to hunt the trust out of :lh:woods and exhibit it to the peo- New-Cash-Want-Rats ' -Cont-a-Word Where cash accompanies copy we will publish all “Want Ads” for half- cent a word per insertion.
