Potatoes in car load lots should be listed with the county agent. The farm bureau office is having a large number of requests from buyers, ship- pers and individuals from other states for growers who have enough potatoes which they could load out in car load lots. If a grower does not have enough to make up a car of his own, he can combine with two or more growers to make up a car. It is essential, however, that all the potatoes be U. S. No. 1 potatoes, if sold for table stock, as all the potatoes sold through the farm bureau and Beltrami County Seed Potato Growers’ association must be first class potatoes. It is also important that all growers who have Burbank Russet potatoes, which range from 2 to 6 ounces in size, list them with the county agent, as it is expected that buyers from Washington state will be here shortly to pick up Russets for seed potatoes. CLOV§R SEED g The attention of the farm bureau has been called to the possibility of pooling clover seed in order to secure car load lots. There is a large amount of clover seed which will be hulled out in the near future in the vicinity of Bemidji. An estimate has been made that a car load lot can be secured, or that there is more than 500 bushels in the immediate vicinity. Offers have already been received from firms who are anxious to pay a good price if they can receive the seed in car load lots. Some of the growers have already sold their seed for $24 to $25.50 per bushel. Growers, who have clover seed. should not sell their seed with any appreciable amount of dockage. It has been found that a dockage which has been made in several cases is unjust and is only a camouflage for the higher price being paid. STEAMER IS RAMMED BY UNDERSEA BOAT (By United Pressl) A six foot hole was torn in the steamer’s port bow, but she made a sife landing at Astoria. The sub- marine was slightly damaged. None of the 200 passengers on the steamer were injured. Ensign Joyce, on the submarine's New York, Oct. 6.—The Colonial Line steamer Lexington was rammed last night in Hell Gate by the sub. marine 0-7. deck, suffered a broken collar bone and three sailors who went overboard when the submarine struck were res- cued. AMERICAN RED CROSS. Repatriating Prisoners. % 5 When hostilitles ceased there were in the hands of thelr Teuton captors millions of prisoners of war of all Allied countries, the terrible plight of whom is well known to all the world. Red Cross workers, carrying relief supplies of clothing, medicines and supplementary foodstuffs, penetrated the Central Powers as soon after the armistice as the military authorities would permit, and the work of getting the prisoners started back to their own couu- WANTED—50 tries was soon begun, In this photograph a group of these men are seen packed up and restored to something like normal health, awaiting the wair that will carry them out of bondage. o tet DEVILS LAKE WOULD BEAUTIFY HILL PARK (By United Press.) Devils Lake, N. D., Oct. 7.—F'ive to ten thousand dollars federal propria- tion could make Sullys’ Hill National park, near here, one of the famous beauty spots of the northwest, in the opinion of E. W. Nelson, chief of the biology survey bureau of the depart- ment of agriculture at Washington here yesterday. Sullys’ Hill, named from the famous Indian fighter, was until re- cently a scenic spot unknown except to the Indians and a few pioneer hill climbers. A few years ago it was ‘““discovered” and through an appro- priation of $5,000 secured by Senator Gronna partially developed and stock with some buffaloes and elk. The view from the summit, which extends as far as the eye can reach, is one of wonderful beauty. Nelson suggested a vista house at the highest point and automobile train to carry those disinclined to climb. BAIRD SHIPPING HIS EFFECTS 70 NEW FARM P. 0. Baird, who bought the A. W. Bartlett farm on Little Bass Lake, known as the Fairview Farm, is ship- Ping his entire household and tarm equipment here from Fargo by auto- mobile.

WHITE PLAGUE CAUSED _ MUCH ARMY REJECTION (By United Press.) St. Paul, Oct. 7.—Eight per cent of fhe Minnesota young men barred from military service in the world war were rejected because they were victims of tuberculosis, according to a report of the draft examinations received today by the Minnesota Pub- : lic Health association. This is considered a very high per centage, the records showing that of twenty major causes of rejection, tu- berculosis was fourth from the high- est. The total number of Minnesotans examined was 81,852. .Of these 16, 008 were rejected either by local boards, after arriving at army camps, or after induction into the service, because of physical defects. And of the rejects, 1,350 were victims of the “great white plague.” ARMY FLIERS START CROSS COUNTRY FLIGHTS TOMORROW (By United Press.) New York, Oct. 7.—Across the continent, then back again, is the 5,- 400 mile route set for army fliers, wio will simultaneously leave from Mineola, N. Y., and San Francisco at 9 o’clock tomorrow morning. How Bridges Breathe. ‘Like us mortals, big steel bridges feel the changes in the weather, and must be bullt to withstand them, or perish. In the heat of summer a bridge is appreciably longer than it is in winter, and at various times of the year it may be longer on one side than on the other, as when a hot sun plays on one flank, and a cold wind on the other. The “breathing apparatus” of a bridge consists of rollers under the feet at one end so that the end can move to and fro freely according to the expansion and contragtion of the | huge girders. Provision is made in the case of the Forth bridge for as much as two feet of “breathing” of the immense canti- levers. Warbiers of All Colors. Not taking into account the human beings who are sometimes referred to as warblers, you will find on looking into a bird book that there are many kinds of warblers, ranging alphabeti- cally all the way from gray-breasted warblers to yellow-rumped warblers, says the American Forestry associa- tion, Washington. It you had a collection of them all together’ they would take in about all the colors of the rainbow, yellow, orange, chestnut, black, white, green, gray, brown and other colors, with numerous shades entering into thelr beautiful plumage. . o o Classified Advertising Department e — ] Advertisements in this column cost ONE CENT per word for FIRST INSERTION and HALF CENT per word for subsequent conseeutive insertions of same copy.
