the greatest battle between economic

OF this earth is on, for iron is the un-

is fortified behind billions of dollars,
and millions of men.
Stephenson applied the steel tire,
to an iron rail in 1914. but it was 1859
before the golden spike was driven
at Promontory Point, which bound
the country together with bands of
steel. 1t took the iron tire fifty-five
years to creep from ocean to ocean,

extremes Of society and has given the
public an opportunity to view the rep

parallel columns.
Capital and labor have always been
glazing at each other over CULTS Of
Misunderstanding and II the Federal
Industrial Commission attempts to
bridge the chasm, 1t VIII render the
public a distinct service.
The farmer has been sitting on the
fence watching capital and labor fight

quite gratifying to find them talking

VALLEY LIVE STOCK
ASSOCIATION STRONG.
Red River Valley Booklet Shows
Breeders are Active.

The increasing interest in live
stock in the Minnesota Red River
Valley is indicated clearly by little
book just issued by the Minnesota
Red River Valley Live Stock Breed
ers' Association. This book shows
that the membership of the associa-
ton is nearly 100 and that the
amount Of good stock owned by the
members is large. These facts show
"a desirable trend, and give assurance
.ofSa future prominence of the 'Val
ley" greater than ever attained in the
days Of exclusive wheat-growing.
They ought to encourage those al
re4dy engaged in developing the live
stock industry in the Red River Val
ley and to lead others to engage in
tho same industry.

NORTHWESTERN
MINNESOTA FAIR.

The people of the Red River Valley
feel deep interest in and will take
pardonable pride in the North
western Minnesota Fair which will be
held in Crookston, next week, July Is
to II inclusive. During the past few
months many notable improvements
have been made to the fair grounds.
All roadways and walks have been
graveld and a drainage system has
been constructed so that if the
weather should be wet all parts of
the grounds can be visited without
getting into the mud.
It is reported that the fair this
year will be bigger then any previous
year.

TUBERCULOSIS INCREASES

Figures gathered by the United
States Public Health Service indicate
ar increase in the number Of persons
who are seeking climatic treatment
for tuberculosis. In addition to. The
increase in the population Of newly
established open air colonies, migra-
ton to the old resorts in the west is
growing all the while.
1t is now estimated that the tuber-
culosis population Of western Texas
and New Mexico is in excess of so, 900.
Practically every resort city in the
country is today receiving more con-
sumptives that ever, though in most
instances the increase has not kept
pace with that Of the population.

WHY I AM PROUD OF
MINNESOTA-"S HEEP"

Minnesota has enough natural ad-
vantages to transform it into one of
the leading sheep districts of the
world. The excellence and cheapness
of it's pasture, land; the superior
feeding value of it's corn, grain, and
hay crops, and their low cost of pro-
duction, and it's fitness as to water
and climate, all make Minnesota
ideal for the production of wool and
mutton.
Market conditions were never bet
ter. The average price of Minnesota
wool is now from % to 80 cents a
pound. In 1910 the National Asso-
citation of Wool Manufacturers estim-
ated the weight of an average
Minnesota fleece at 6.8 pounds, only
ten other states excelling in that
particular. Such a fleece should be
worth about $1.90 this year, the
highest average price for years.
Mutton and lamb are selling for
more at retail than any other kind of
meat. Milk lamb late in June sold
for as much as % cents a pound
while leg of lamb retailed for %
cents at places. For the last five
years there has been a steady in
crease in value of mutton. In 1911
the average value of 100 pounds OF
mutton in Minnesota was 1911; in
1912, $4.21; in 1913, SAG; in 1914
$4.95. Mutton is higher this year.
Despite these advantages, however
Minnesota, with $4,000 sheep on Jan
1,1915, had 1 per cent less than the
year before, and II per cent less than
in 1910. To be sure only fifteer
states had more sheep on JAM, 1915
than year ago, and in only three OF
these fifteen states was there a gair
! Of more than 5 per cent. But why
was not Minnesota among the chosen
few?
Contrary to usual opinion the
United States not only exports hard
ly any wool but actually imports
nearly as much as is produced al
home. In 1910 Uncle Sam imported
263,926,232 pounds Of wool, compared
with a production of 321, 1867, 75(
pounds. Why cannot Minnesot;
supplant a little of this foreign
WOOL The United States also i'm
ports considerable mutton.
4 Last year at the Minnesota Stat,
Fair home producers Of sheep bough
over 200 pure-bred animals from ex
hibitors to grade up home hocks
This year an attempt will be made tt
dispose Of double that number by
emphasizing the value of the sheer
show as a public market place. We
must bring more good, strong pure.

Argyle Takes One.

The local nine was defeated by the
Argyle club at the Fourth-of-Julv
celebration game Monday afternoon.
The game was well played by both
teams and Warren seemed to be plav-
ing better ball in every part of the
contest. Considerable luck and some
questionable decisions that were Civ
en- to Argyle brought in at least three
scores. Thus the game ended 6 to 4
in the favor Of the visitors. In a
contest Of this nature, when there is
so much rivalry between both teams.
we think it would be advisable to Sc
cure outside umpires. This would
eliminate the predjudice that is often
claimed in the Warren and Argyle
games. regardless of whether or not
there is any foundation for the
charge.
The batteries were Halbert and
Walker for Argyle, Phillips and An
derson for Warren.

THREE INTERESTING
BASE BALL GAMES

Games and Drops Another
Argyle and Stephen Victims
Warren 4; Stephen 3.

The Warren club took the Steph-
en- aggregation into camp Friday at
ternoon on the local grounds, by
score Of 4 to 8. The contest was
close and interesting and at times
Stephen put up a lively fight, that
made the locals play ball to maintain
their lead.
Phillips pitched for Warren very
successfully, securing twelve strike
outs and passed only two men, which
was really done Intentionally to play
the game scientifically. Cambell re-
ceived the first four innings, but
showed up poorly and Anderson was
put in for the remaining portion of
the game. The team as a whole
played good ball and the fans were
given the opportunity to see the boys
play the game right.
Rushing heaved for the visitors and
threw very speedy ball, that made
Warren command their batting pow
ers. At times, however, he got wild
and during the game he passed seven
men. He was given credit for seven
strike-outs. The Stephen bunch
proved to be heavy batters.

Warren and Argyle teams. It was a
thrilling game, being tied in the

mound for the locals, and the game
ended 9 to G., with Warren at the big
end. The Warren boys played air
tight ball and in every department Of
the contest had the better Of the Ar

were several bad plays on the part
Of both teams.
