Relation of Ma
chinery and Horses.
BY Thomas p. Cooper, Mime
sofa University Farm.

Many of the smaller farms are pre-
vented from reducing the number Of
horses kept on the farm, because Of
the fact that four-horse machinery is
being used. This factor of large-sized
machinery tends, on these small farms,
to materially increase the cost of
horse labor as an extra horse is often
kept, not because of the actual need
of the farm, but because the machin-
cry is of four-horse size. This materi-
ally decreases the hours of work per
horse. On farms of eighty acres or
less, there is seldom work for more
than three horses. Machinery can be
purchased, suitable for a three-horse
team, with greater economy in the
long run than the keeping of the extra
horse that the large implement may
be used. Generally, in such opera
tions as require an implement that
can only be operated by four horses, it
is cheaper to hire the work done than
to attempt to do it with the farm
force 1t is on farms of this size that
economies are especially necessary,
as horse labor will necessarily be high
upon them at best.

The visit of Helmer H. Bryn, min
lister from Norway to the United
States, to the Northwestern states Of
Minnesota and the Dakotas. has been
given a great deal of attention by the
daily press because of the fact that
Scandinavians in America seem to
be getting closer together and also
seem to succeed in bringing about bet
ter and closer relations between the
two mother countries. A closer Scan
dinavian union was the message that
Minister Bryn brought during his re-
cent visit in the Northwest and that
he was we'll received is needless to

guest was banquetted and at all gath

ing his visit in st. Paul, where a
banquet was held in his honor, Min
lister Bryn said while Norway and
Sweden have given their best to this
country. they had also received much
good from this country, and the best
they are receiving is the lesson of

Says George Bothner in a recent
Copenhagen dispatch: The anti-Mor-
mon outcry has rousede an echo in
Scandinavia, where hitherto the mis-
sionaries from Utah have done much
as they pleased Now the government
is being urged to prohibit their activ-
tiles and public meetings are being
held up and down the country to de-
nOunce the methods of the travelling
elders in persuading Danish girls to
emigrate to Salt Lake City, Several
resolutions were sent to the premier
calling on the government to empower
the local police to expel any Mormon
advocate found spreading his doc,
trines among the people. The mis-
sionaries are certainly very active.
Their main centers are in Copenha-
gen, Aarhus and Aalborg for Denmark,
Christiania and Drontheim for Nor
way. No less than 118 missionaries
are at work and during February they
distributed 1928 Mormon books and
$4,000 catechisms, held 3,0S6 eVangel-
istic conferences, 500 public meetings
and paid 1857 house. toulouse calls
Out Of all that effort they appear to
have drawn tWenty-siX converts In
conference between a deputation of
churchmen the home secretary and
the minister for public worship it was
declared the chief Mormon elder, An
drew Jenson, had publicly stated, in
Aarhus and elsewhere, he had two
wives. The deputation urged he be
expelled, for his bigamy was contrary
to the laws of Denmark.
A new church was recently dedi-
Gated in Copenhagen at which the en-
tire royal family of Denmark and a
large number of ministers and other
dignitaries were present. Bishop
Peder Madsen was present and per-
formed the dedicatory sermon. While
he was preaching his sermon he sud
denly swooned away in front of the
altar, Several of the ministers pres
ent carried him into the sacristy, from
whence he was taken. He soon re-
covered from his illness. Provost Of.

bring the same brotherly love to their
people in the old country and nothing
is doing more to heal the wounds
caused by the separation of the two
countries than the friendship of the
ScandinavianS in America for each
other. The Scandinavians here have
developed a keener love for their
fatherland than the folks at home, and
are better able to forget petty jeal-
ouSies and work for the real good of
Scandinavia" On this same occasion,
the sentiments expressed by Minister
Bryn were also heartily endorsed by
Captain Mjoen, Norwegian officer in
America studying military schools. He
said lasting peace and friendly rela-
tionS between the two countries will
come through the Scandinavians in
America, and that within ten years
Norway and Sweden will be bound
closer than ever before in defensive

a great power for peace, but with

Paul service. c. J. Mangan, general
agent for the line in the tri-cities, mas
received copy of the new time ia
BILE which goes into effect today, and
the steamer st. Paul on its next TIP
up will run on the new schedule. The
st. Paul is the largest boat on the mp
per Mississippi and is very speedy, but
according TO the old time table ther :.
was not enough time allowed for
handling freight at the different laud-
ings, and therefore the management
of the line has added one more day to
the round trip schedule, and hereafter
the round trip from Rock Island to ST
Paul will consume six days instead Of
five days. Another advantage that
the round trip passengers to st. Paul
will appreciate is that the boat will
lay over at ST. Paul for a day and a
night, giving the passengers more
time to visit in st. Paul and Minueap-
oils. The leaving time of the steam
ers has also been changed. Going up
the river the leaving time from Rock
Island has been changed from s a. m
to IL noon, and going south to st.
Louis the leaving time has been
changed from noon to 1880 a. N. the
next morning.

Believed Proposed REIMBURSEMENT VIII
Be Adopted at Adjourned
Head Camp Meeting.

Headcamp delegates of the Modern
woodmen will meet in Chicago the
fourth Tuesday in January for the sole
purpose of considering the question of
putting the society on permanent ad-
eeuate rate basis. The delay is to give
ample time for all the delegates to be-
come fully acquainted with the NOR
tally rate of the society in order that
they may discuss and act intelligent
" upon the question of rate change.
WILL PROBABLY PASS.
While the sentiment Of the member
ship OF the society on the question is
not generally known, it is thought that
the change will go through, and that,
too, on an adequate basis James Nc
Namara, assistant head clerk, ex-
planned that the change was not only
desirable, but necessary, In view OF the
fact that 16 states had already passed
laws compelling all insurance societies
to get upon an adequate rate basis by
1915.
AT the July session of the board of
directors to be held at the head office,
a committee on readjustment will be
appointed, and II will be expected to
give a detailed report upon its investi-
cations and findings at the convention
In January.
EXPERIMENTATION CHANGED.
At the convention in Buffalo the
basis of representation of delegates at
future conventions was changed from
delegate to 1900 membership to one
for every 2,250 members. This will in
sure a more wieldy body and at the
same time slightly reduce the cost of
meetings. The total cost OF the Buff
falo meeting was approximately $780,
600.

when they reached the brink of the
step-off, which is Is feet deep, they dis
appeared simultaneously.
