the Norwegian treaty of integrity with

added to the guarantors Denmark

consideration as Sweden. And if we
had complied with the demands of
Sweden without notifying Denmark
the latter would have looked upon
this as less friendly act Norway
is always ready to negotiate with
Sweden about definite questions of a
strictly Scandinavian character, but
this case was a general political prob

figure as an active factor"
: Employers from the Scandinavian
countries held a convention in Copen-
hagen Nov. ~ and 13 and agreed on
the following resolutions: The en-
hours of work in each branch accord
ing to domestic and foreign competi-
tion. The wages should always be
determined by the two contracting
parties, not by arbitration. In case of
job work no minimum pay should be
guaranteed. The employers ought to
have the absolute right of controlling
and distributing their work and of
hiring and discharging workmen
whether these are union or non union
men. Foremen should not belong to
labor unions. Rules for preventing
strikes should be voluntary, and labor
conflicts should not be settled by
compulsory courts of arbitration es-
tablished by law.

soon have the honor of the visit of
the young Prince Erik, son of Prince
and Princess Valdemar, who wants to
visit the big farms of Minnesota, Da-

who are very democratic in their
ideas, are only encouraging his per-

Of reason that we should use so much
wheat and so little corn in our daily
ration. Practically all the wheat pro-

1t is probable that not one bushel of
corn in so raised in this country goes

anomaly when we consider that two
bushels of corn can be produced to
every bushel of wheat on given area

times the national wheat crop.

To Tell Horses Character.

1t is easy to tell a horses character
by his nose, according to an army
officer If the profile has a gentle
curve and at the same time the ears
are pointed and sensitive, the animal
may be depended on as being gentle
and at the same time high-spirited. On
dent in the middle of his nose it is
safe to set him down as treacherous
and vicious. A horse with slight
concavity in the profile will be easily
scared and needs coaxing, while one
that droops his ears is apt to be
both lazy and vicious.
