While the battle of the allies and
the Germans continues along the en-.
tire front in France there has been
relatively no change in the position Of
the armies. The hardest fighting ap'
parently is proceeding on the eastern
and western ends of the lines, the
allies on the west end endeavoring to
encircle the Germans and on the east
the Germans trying to break through
the allies lines in the vicinity of Yer
dun. In the center lull in the war
fare is reported.

SWEDEN READY FOR WAR
Warren Editor Writes of Conditions
There and Says Business Over En-
r. tire Country Paralyzed..
SOLDIERS DRILL CONSTANTLY

War has halted the pleasure trip
of J. P. Mattson, of Warren, father
Of Alvin Mattson, until recently
with the Daily Pioneer, who has
been touring the European coun-
tries. From Stockholm he writes
that business all over Sweden is
paralyzed and banks find themselves
hard pressed on account of the with
drawal of deposits made at the first
rumor of war. Upon his arrival IN
Sweden he deposited his money in a
bank and when the troubles COM
menced this bank frightened up and
would pay depositors only small
amounts.
"Sweden," he continues, ''fears
that it will be drawn into the world
war, but is taking all precautions
to remain neutral and is preparing
to defend it's neutrality. The en-
tire navy has been modified and a
few corps of the army. Everywhere
on the streets the eye meets with
men in uniforms and the drilling of
soldiers is going on constantly"

BUSINESS AT STANDST1LL.
War Causes Many Hardships in
Canada, Says O'Conner.

With wages greatly reduced and
not a job vacant, the European war,
together with poor crops, has
brought Canadian business to a
standstill, says John O'Conner, son
of Mrs. P. J. Russell, who is visit
ing here O'Conner has spent three
years with the surveying staff of the
Grand Trunk, making his headquar-
tiers at Prince George and Prince
Rupert. He says that crops of AL
berta will average no more than
seven bushels to the acre, while
those of Saskatchewan, will range
between eleven and twelve. Wages
in many places have been cut in half.
Thirty-two thousand Canadians have
volunteered and are now drilling at
Val Cartier, Quebec. Recruiting
stations are being maintained in ev-

PEAT OF BIG VALUE
AS PRODUCER OF GAS
Representative Of U. $. Geological
Survey, Bureau Of Mines, 1nspects
Resources Around Bemidji.
BoGs NOW BEING PURCHASED
Plants to Be. Erected for Providing Of
Power to Manufacturing Estab-
nts-Convenient Here.

Peat lands in the vicinity of Be
midi are bound to become Of much
value, is the opinion Of b. K. Soper,
a representative of the U. S. Geo
logical survey, bureau of mines, who
has spent the past week here, in
specting the peat resources in this
section of Beltrami county. He ap-
peared enthusiastic over peat from
a gas producing standpoint, and in
speaking of it's value from use in
this connection said: Zone ton of
good gas-producing peat will pro-
duce more cubic feet of producer
gas than ton Of ordinary soft coal.
A producer gas is a very cheap fuel
for producing electricity for power y
Companies Organized.
Soper explained that during the
past few months several companies
have formed, buying up many peat
bogs, adapted for making producer
gas, and are contemplating the in
stallation of producer gas plants, for
the purpose of furnishing power for
large manufacturing concerns.
Conditions Here Favorable.
''The possibilities here are ex-
tremely favorable" he said, ;. be-
cause of the fact that there are many
deposits of peat nearby, and this
would, of course, provide Bemidji
with cheap power"
When asked the cost of a gas pro-
Queer power plant, Mr.. Soper said
they can be installed for about $50
per horse power.
while this is a new industry, ;
continued Soper, "just ripening in
to a reality, it is quite probable that
in the near future we will see many
large manufacturing plants situated
on the edge of peat boys, because OF
the cheap power that can be gener-
ated from the producer gas.
Peat as a raw material, can be
used for many other projects than
for fuel, for instance; the nitrate
for fertilizer, dye stuff, paper, wo-
ven fabrics, artificial wool, moss lit
ter, packing material for refriger-
ator plants and other uses to numer-
our to mention. But among these
the greatest would probably be the
use of peat bog from an agricultural
standpoint
Must Be Drained.
'Peat in it's natural condition is
too wet to be worked and therefore
before plant can be operated sue
cessfully the surface of the water
level must be lowered by effective
drainage, ditching and dredging. Az
ter this has been done, with the aid
of fertilizer, great crops of grass
and vegetables can be grown
Praises Drainage Work.
With O. L. Dent, ditch referee,
Soper inspected several of the ditch
ing projects at Red Lake and other
sections, and was enthusiastic over
the progress of drainage in Beltrami
and Koochiching counties, and pre-
dicted that in the near future this
is to be leading agricultural and
dairying center.
