Animal Actors

The impression is created by an occa- sional moving picture of wild animal life that the beasts in order tO force them into poses for thr camera. are cruelty treated. Nothing however. it is said. is further from thr truth. Carpml investigation has shown that force IS seldom employed, and wherever [ hus been used the film resulting has been unsatisfactory Mir Ernest A. Dpuch. a London naturalist, who has made mn extensive investigation of this phase of the movie industry. declares that the dumb actors are given every ronSldera- ton The thrills experienced by the spectators are the result in a majority Of instances. of the very innocent cX- pedient of placing piece Ut meat nt % strategic point The animal leaps fui C.. and the cincmatograph records every motion of the leap The spectator of course. sees nothing of the meat and concludes that cruelty alone could proc ducc the picture thrown on thc screen. "Thp animals" he concludes, really have much easier time than those that appear in trick acts on the stage Detroit Free Press.

 There was a glimmer of admiration in FaverSham's eyes as te choot bis head.
 No Achmet will tnke her his own way. We go an entirely different one if we escape the mob
 He had hardly spoker when the out CT gate swung inward and there was wild crush of struggling bodies be. tween the high pillars. A stone struck the floor between the two Europeans.
 Come with me-" said Faversham and drew Dorr around a corner and then inside a small entry. Another entry giving of this offered escape and they darted down it. An instant later they were in an empty courtyard
 "I know where I am now," Faver sham said coolly and opened a gate in the opposite wall which led into a gar den Five minutes later the two men were strolling along a quiet lane out of sight and sound of the mob.
 "They will destroy all our things" Dorr suggested
 "No. The hotelkeeper and the DO lice will sec to it that they don't. All they wanted was you and me. Fail ing to catch us, they will dlsperse."
 But where shall we find Ruthy John went on eagerly.
 "Achmet will take her to a camp of beggars outside the city" he an swered.
 "But how? She won't be safe with only native"

 When they came close to the spot where the natives were asleep the three of them paused and listened.

Reports from the region northwest

stock during the past winter, which
was distinguished by its unusually
heavy snowfall. In the Cherry Creek
region, however, the homesteaders
lost a great many head of their live
stock because of the severity Of the
winter. A great many cattle died
from exposure, but the heaviest

ORGANIZATION GROWING FAST
Expects to Handle Large Percentage
of Northwestern Crops Within
a Few Years.

Indications are that the Equity Co
operative Exchange, the farmers ter
minal grain marketing agency, will
move from Minneapolis to st. Paul.
Business organizations Of ST. Paul
ere negotiating with the farmers and
IL present plans are carried out the
headquarters of the farmers c~o-opeTa-
tive grain marketing movement will
locate in the SANITY City. This means
also that St. Paul will be h%eadquar-
tiers for the cooperative marketing
movement in various other products
In which farmers are interested.
The many Northwestern farmers
who are back of the farmers cooper
ative marketing movement feel that
their terminal grain marketing agency
has never received a fair deal from
business men Of Minneapolis. The
Iquity Cooperative Exchange has
made steady progress since it was or
eanized in August, 1912, but it has
bad the fierce opposition of the COM
bined grain interests in the Mime
apolis Chamber Of Commerce right
from the start. The Chamber of
Commerce interests are closely affl-
lated with banks and other business
institutions of Minneapolis.
AT the big cooperative marketing
convention held in Minneapolis a few
weeks ago, st. Paul business men in
vited the farmers to locate their co.
operative exchange in that city. The
fact that the large volume of grain
handled by the Equity Cooperative
Exchange is sold almost entirely TO
mills and buyers outside of Mime
apolis, which would make it possible
for the farmers exchange to establish
its headquarters in either city, gave
st. Paul it's opportunity. St. Paul
business men see in the Farmers
Equity Cooperative Exchange an op-
%portunity to get for st. Paul q good
share of the grain trade.
