The Winnipeg Delegation Met
With Commercial Club
Last Night.
GOOD LUNCH and SPEECHES

Wednesday, after the return Of the
Canadian party from the country the
visitors a. we'll as the members of the
dub and business men Of the city gath
cred around the tables and enjoyed a
splendid lunch that would have done
honor to an even greater occasion.
President Charles X. Otto presided as
toast master and introduced the vari-
oas speakers.
President Worst made the address
Of welcome and made It plain to the
Canadian neighbors that they were
welcome and that their efforts to CO.
operate with this state in bringing
about better farming methods, would
meet with a hearty response on this
side. He predicted great possibilities
for this state and stated plainly that
the rainfall in this country is sufficient
to mature a good crop each year II
properly conserved and not wasted
Owing to being compelled to leave
early to catch a train he spoke very
briefly.
The next to be called upon was v
G. Brown, chairman Of the Winnipeg
Bankers Association, who has a very
pleasing personality and who stated
that this invasion of the United States
was perfectly peaceable, although the
party expected to take everything
home with them that they could get
hold of and that they would be glad
to have us visit them and take what
we could find that might benefit us
and he concluded with the wish and
hope that this might be the only sort
of invasion that would ever take
place in the western hemisphere.
Secretary Thomas Cooper was next
on the list of boosters for Better Farm
ing and explained some Of the results
of the agitation in this state and took
the company ten years into the future,
showing the results Of the work that
is to come.
One of the most pleasing and earn.
est speakers Of the evening was Rod
erick Mackenzie, president and Sec.
retary of the Grain Growers Associa'
tion Of Western Canada. He spoke in
an optimistic strain and told some
thing Of what had called the party to
this state and expressed deep appre'
citation of the treatment accorded
them.
Frank Sanford took a very broad
! view Of the situation, agreeing perfect
ly with the other speakers that wheat
raising would send the farmer to the
poor house II persisted in exclusively

who had followed the elusive wheat
until he was down and out as so many
ARE, how this farmer could buy the
pigs and cattle that is his only hope
and promised salvation. He stated
that he knew many farmers who were
Just in that condition and that nc
amount of education would provide
them with the funds to buy the stock
needed.
Ex-Governor White, President Nc
Farland and others spoke briehy
partly in humorous strain, all ex-
pressing friendship and good will for
the visitors and in his talk President
Mcfarland expressed the belief thai
eventually when farming came to a
point where it really pays the farming
will be done by the farmer living on
the land and the city farmer like aim
self and others will have taken their
loss and have retired.
Prof. James of the State Normal
made a brief address in which he told
something of conditions in the state
as seen in his work expressed the be-
lief that the better farming movement
was doing worlds of good and that the
farmers were cooperating in the work
and appreciated the assistance OF the
field men.
Prof. Edwin Maryland spoke at some
length giving some idea of the local
work in part as follows:
Demonstrations.
1-Alfalfa. 1873 co.operators. 766
acres.
In speaking of co-operators it means
a single demonstration. One cooper
ator means one demonstration is car
ried on by one farmer. The fields Of
alfalfa seeded in 1912 gave an average
yield of two tons of alfalfa hay per
acre in 1913. In 1914 these same
fields have yielded from three to four
tons per acre in two cuttings and a
majority of these fields will no doubt
produce another crop.
2-Seed Corn. 81 co-operators. 165
acres.
These plots are grown from the Sc
lected seed of such varieties as Mime.
sofa No. 10. Minnesota No. % and
Rustler's White Dent. Selection Of
seed is continued each year and more
and more of the home grown seed dis
tributed. This work is carried on
with the idea of introducing the best
varieties Of corn that can be adapted
to the climate, and of demonstrating
the value of using home selected seed
corn. .
3-Hog Pastures. II co-operators.
264 acres.
This line Of work is carried on to
demonstrate the value Of the right
kind of pasture as a necessary feature

Russians Victorious In East
Surprise That Decisive
Battle Has Not Been
Fought.


reinforced with troops from the Ger
man center, continues to make de-
termined stand against the attempt OF
the allies to outfank him.
General French, who yesterday re-
ported all German attacks in this reg
ion repulsed, and that the allies had
resumed the offensive, announced to
day that the battle to the north Of the
>Oise, which commenced Sept. 25, con
tinues with great violence, with no de-
>sisive result, but that at certain points
the French had to yield ground.
The Germans in a report last night
said the battle was proceeding success
fully for them. Both IN London and
Paris, there is the greatest confidence,
although some surprise at the display
and the success of the Germans in pre-
venting the outfanking movement.
Along the rest of the line, French
communication says, there has been
no change.
The defeat Of the German army
which invaded Russia from East Prus'
sia appears from Russian accounts to
have been even more decisive than
previously announced. According to
the Russian ambassador at Rome the
Germans were completely routed, with
a loss Of 10000 and forced to abandon
everything.
The Russians are now moving for.
ward with the object Of invading East
Prussia again. This victory, as com
pete as reported, is Of the greatest
importance to the Russians, as it will
prevent the Germans undertaking land
and sea operations, which would have
. compelled Russia to turn at least part
of its attention in this direction.
II Germans have not already retired
from the left bank Of the Niemen river
at Druskeniki, their defeat at Angus
toWo must compel them to.
Before the Russian advance In Ga
licia the peasants are fleeing the coun'
try, and it is reported 10000 Of them
have reached Bohemia.
The sanitary departments Of Vienna
reports four cases Of Asiatic cholera
occurred among the troops returning
from Galicia; all have been isolated.
At Antwerp, an official report says
the situation in the fortified positions
remains unchanged, although the Ger
mans are claimed to have taken two
forts. Fighting continues in the neal
east; the Anglo-French deet has de-
stroyed Lustican, outer defense Of Cat
taro.
While Servians and hontenegrins
are attacking the outer fortihcationa
at Sarayevo; Belgrade has not been
bombarded for several days, probably
the result Of the reoccupation Of Sem
lin by the Servians. A Vienna report
said the Austrians are driving Ser
vians and Montenegrins from Easi
Bosnia; two Montenegrin brigade:
have been repulsed after severe fight
ing, lasting two days.

An uuIy Bird.

The pondicherry is not pretty bird
to look at, but his manners are worse
than his looks. Even the natives Of
East India, which is the home of the
pondicherry, avoid the place where the
ugly creature builds its nest. The East
Indians sense of smell is far from del
icate, but even SO he draws the line on
the pondicherry.
Besides living in so uncleanly a way
that both man and birds keep him at a
distance this LII hammered bird has
hateful trick Of Kissing. There's no
melody in his throat at all. no one ever
heard BIN sing. but when be takes to
flight he makes noise similar to that
made by an angry snake.

afterward to the rest of the world. Its

Vacation Trips With
Motorcycles Are Popular

Vacation trips by motorcycle offer
so many delightful possibilities that
this method of touring is growing rap
IDLY in popularity says the West End
Electric and Cycle Company. local dis
trlbutors of Indian motorcycles.
The numerous betterments in the
1914 models. such as electric starter.
electric lights. full equipment and
greater comfort and silence, have
aided materially in the growing popu-
larity of the motorcycle, and it is no
longer necessary to go alone if COM
panionship is desired. Any single mo-
torcycle of standard make can now be
converted into a two-seated machine
by the attachment of an easy siding
side car.
The amount of power compressed
III so small a space is not euualled in
any other self-propelled vehicle. The
maximum of motive power in a mini
mum of space is made possible through
the application of the gas engine to
the motorcycle.
Furthermore. the cost of operation
is lower than that of any other motor
vehicle. Gasoline and tire expense are
aosurdly low. A valuable talking point
in favor of the motorcycle is this i'm
portant factor of upkeep cost
1T is no stretch of the imagination
to assume that the completion of the
good roads movement will more than
double the present output of motor
cycles. From the motorcycle enthusi-
ast's point of view this epoch cannot
arrive too soon. Motorcyclists are
ardent supporters of the good roads
movement and their cooperation is
one of the strongest assets toward the
ultimate end of creating throughout
the United States a network of repu-
table highways. The rapid progress of
this project is rapidly pushing to the
front the motorcycle in the field of
motor propelled vehicles"

READY FOR THE RALLY

Everything is in readiness for the
biggest Motorcycle Rally ever staged
in the East-the Saratoga Fourth of
July meet, July 8, and 5. Motor
cyclists from all over the East have
signifying their intention of joining one
of the four big tours, starting from
Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Utica
and leading to Saratoga. In connec-
ton with this Midsummer Rally will
be held the New York State Annual
f. A. M. convention at which five
State championship races will be run,
and the two-mile national professional
championship. Motorcycle dealers as
we'll as riders are enthusiastic about
the convention, as space has ben re-
served at the official hotel where the
various makes of machines and ac-
cessories may be exhibited. Governor
NJ. H. Glynn. of New York, has been
invited to attend the meet, and it is
probable that he will accept He is
scheduled to address the motorcyclists

REQ Motor Car and Truck
Factories Open to Public

80 many people have told me that
they wished they could go through a
motor car factory that we have
thrown open our doors to the public" ;"
says r. c. Rueschaw, sales manager
of the REQ Motor Car and Truck COM
panies But we have made a trip
to Lansing unnecessary in order to see
every operation in our factory, for we
have just completed thirty-two page
book, illustrating and describing in de-
tail the most important operations in
the manufacture of a motor car.
The REQ dealer in your city will
gladly mail a copy free to any one
requesting it or if his supply is ex-
hausted request to the factory at
Lansing will be given prompt atten-
ton.
This book is not a catalog, but a
very successful attempt to describe by
picture and story the wonderful ma
chinery and equipment necessary to
produce a successful motor car or
truck, and is well worth the critical
attention of everyone interested in
modern manufacturing methods.
