TOLL lives HITS CANADA
Former Granville Man Returns From
Dominion Unfolding Conditions
Relating tO Labor

4 Granville, N. d., Nov. 27--Graye
fears are felt in Canada over the
prospects of handling next years
crop in the opinion of Fred Dilts,
former resident of this place, who
spent several days here last week
ell route to Iowa from Hearne, Sask.
Good wages are being paid for help,
he reports, owing to the fact that
so many Canadians are being sent
to the front. Dilts stated that it was
difficult to get harvest hands this fall
and that If CONSUMPTION is forced, as
threatened, practically every. able
bodies man in Canada will be sent to
Europe. He cited one case to show
how the male population is being re-
duced. A year ago eight young men
from Hearne were employed by the
company he represented. All of them
enlisted. Up to the time of leaving
news had been received announcing
the death in battle of seven OF that
number, while the eighth was still re-
ported missing.

third annual state Y. N. G. A. confer

acted as leader at the conference,
State Secretary A. b. Dale Of Fargo,
Bruce E. jackson of Bismarck, and
II. B. Frame of Grand Forks, were ac-
tive as speakers at all sessions. Their

conference topic, while Future Sue

prominence in all discussions.
Valley City Is Favorite iIi.
The city in which the fourth an
nual conference in 1917 will be held
will not be known for some time. The
newly elected officers, named at the
opening session Friday evening, will
confer in the near future and decide
on this issue. Valley City made a
strong bid for the 1917 session and
there is every probability she will be

SEATTLE, Wash, May 26 Long distance shopping for the Eskimos is one of the re- responsibilities which load the shoulders of Captain John Backland, who expected to get away this week with the four-masted sailing schooner, C. s. Holmes or his annual trip to the Arctic ocean.
 Already the arctic night in the igloos is enlivened with Broadway musical numbers poured forth from a talking machine ordered some years back by an Eskimo who paid for it and other articles he wants with ten fox skins, which sold for $1,OOO.
 The natives study the magazine ad- yertisements which come their way, and pick out what looks good to them.
 The c. s. Holmes carries 1000 tons Of cargo this year, in cluding lumber, paint, stoves and other material for enlarging the Presbyterian mission church at Point Barrow and a forty five-foot boat for the Methodist Epis- copal mission at Sinuk.
 Captain Backland has gone to Alas ka yearly for ten years. In the winter Le takes the c. H. Holmes to the South Seas.

Captain Louis L. Lanes 300-ton wooden schooner, Great Bear, being built at Port Blakely, Wash, proba- ply will start north about June To-. She will carry thirty-two men and four whaleboats and, with her sheathing to resist ice, will be perhaps the very strongest boat of her size ever built in the United States. John Borden, millionaire sportsman of Chicago, who is a partner of Captain Lane in the Great Bear, is here. With Lane and Borden will go Morris Bokum, C. H. Knickerbocker and Rochester Slaugh- ter of Chicago; Reginald Fernald, of Santa Barbara, Cal, and photograph CT.
 There will be opportunities for hunt ing and photographing walrus, polar bear and other big game before the Great Bear turns her prov toward Herschel Island, where Lane hopes to receive a message from Vilhjalmur StefanssOn, commander of the Canadi- an Arctic expedition. If he receives no message at Herschel Island, he will go to Banks Land, where he has agreed to meet Stefansson between August and 10
