ANUNDS0N DOES
NOT Want FEAST
Feels that He Knows Grand
Forks People Well and Re-
CARDS Them as Considerate

Captain Road Amundsen does not
desire to be feted and banqueted when
in the city next week. He will be
here only n day and will have but
little time outside of the time devoted
to the lecture. He feels that the
Grand Forks people are his particu-
lar friends and that they will not ex-
pect him to desire a banquet or re-
ception. He says that he attends too
many banquets and midnight recep-
tions in cities where he is obliged to,
for his own good health. He wants
to meet his audience and shake hands
with n who 80 desire after the lee
ture is over.
Capt. Amundsen has been banqueted
in Grand Forks before and he remem-
bers the occasion with a great deal of
pleasure. The. d%iscoverer of the South
Pole has already delivered over 100
lectures on the discovery. His con-
tract with the Lyceum Bureau under
whose management he travels does
not permit him to make a speech at
the university or any other place.

PIERCE COUNTY PROGRESSIVE
Farmers Near Rugby Have Gone
Diversified Farming One
Step Better.

Pierce county farmers believe in do
ing as we'll as talking. therefore, in
stead Of consuming all of their time
discussing diversified farming, they
proceeded to get busy upon at least
n line that they expect will give the
best results. One Of their number was
delegated to go to the eastern market
and buy a carload of first class Hol-
stems. This car has arrived and Is
distributed. Discussing the plan, the
Rugby Tribune says:
There were twenty-four young
cows and a yearling bull in the ship
ment. and Monday morning the cattle
were taken out to the Hawkins farm
where the farmers who had pooled
their funds were on hand to take their
respective number of. cattle.
THE price of this carload of stock
was about the same al the selling
price OF a gas tractor, but unlike the
tractor. six years hence the stock and
its increase will be worth upwards of
$4,000, besides having paid a good
profit to their owners meantime"
In this connection 1t is interesting
to note that the records of the North
Dakota publicity bureau at Grand
Forks shows that in March, 1913.
there were shipped from North Dako-
ia to The st. Paul market. 6,823 cat
tie as against 1926 in March, 1912;
1.0S9 calves in March, 1913. as against
256 in March. 1912; 1896 hogs in
March. 1913, as against 5,132 in
March, 1912. This means q total
shipment of 456 cars in March, 1918,
as against only III in March 1912.
Note the increase in the months ship
ments Of from 100 per cent to 200 per
cent. in favor of the present year, in
dfcattng In a measure at least, the
growth of diversified farming ideas.

IS next IN LINE
The Spanish Prison swindle IS Being
Worked in the Gate
City.

And still h dupe game is being
worked overtime: Minot. Rolla. New
Rockford and Grand Forks are lead
ing the procession of those cities in
which suckers have been sought by
the Spanish prison swindlers. The
publicity given the swindle by the
newspapers of the state will soon kill
all chance Of any n biting" in the
state Of North Dakota n way. Fargo
reports the fake being tried there.
j. c.. Durkee. painter. decorator and
paperhanger. of Fargo. will not be
compelled to follow his vocation any
longer as a means of livelihood as an
offer has been made to him t share
to the extent of one-third in the sum
Of this money to obtain his liberation
from a Spanish prison.
Durkee received q letter a short
time ago signed by n Ivanovitsch,
who alleges that he Is confined by
the Spanish government in a prison
in that country and that he is the
owner Of. $21S, 900 secreted in a place
that only he knows of. He wants
Durkee to send SOME money to a
trusted friend of the writer with which
to carry on court proceedings to Sc
cure his release from prison.
Enclosed with this letter is what
purports to be a. newspaper clipping
which gives an account of the arrest
Of a Russian banker in Spain who had
absconded from st. Petersburg with
100000 rubels Of the banks money.
The bankers name is given in the
clipping as Alexis Ivanovitsch.
The purpose Of this letter and clip
ping is to convey the impression that
the writer and the arrested banker
are n and the same person. Du-kee
is advised to send a cablegram and
not by letter II he wishes to avail
himself Of the opportunity to make
some easy money.
State Flooded.
OF late the state has been flooded
with these letters but SO far there has
been no report Of anyone having come
to the rescue Of the Imprisoned Rus
sian from this section. That the
swindle has succeeded in numerous
instances is shown by the newspaper
reports concerning victims in various
parts Of the country.
A woman in New York city recently
parted with $4,000. her only savings OF
a lifetime through this ancient bunco
game. Only a short time ago a Min
neapolis woman sunk several thou
dollars. everything she had. in
this scheme. The persistence with
which the game 10 kept UP would in
dictate that It is proving profitable t
the promoters.

TERMINATION RATHER Low
Such is the Report Made by Better
Farming Experts Who Have Been
Testing Different Grains.

According to the Better Farming
association In North Dakota the test
Ing of durum wheat and barley. which
has been carried on in Il number of
the counties in the state. shows that
the termination of these grains is
low. Secretary Cooper says
that the reason for this may he due
to the fact that the farmers have eX-
posed their seeds too much and that
the grain has thus become damaged.
He advises h farmers in the state
to use the greatest care in selecting
seed for this spring. All Of the tests
made thus far show that the germlna-
ton Of these grains is about so per
cent. These tests were made in
fifteen counties OF North Dakota and
the tests have heen made by the
school children in the various locali-
ties.

Every lady who desires to keep up
