were also taken about year ago from

reports from these birds to determine
their complete recovery from this

SDortsmen report that there is little
indication in Barnes county of the
prevalence of this malady among the
ducks this fall. Dead ducks are found
occasionally, but investigation usually
proves that they died from gun shot
and not from any lingering malady.

'Squaw Camp" New
Feature at Mercedes

Bismarck, Nov. "a "souaw
camp" is rapidly becoming the out
standing feature of Mercedes, where
the First North Dakota Infantry has
been stationed since last July. A
"sQuaw camp" it should be explained
is the technical Kiplinesque name for
the quarters set aside adjacent to a
regular military encampment for the
accommodation Of the soldiers wives.
Adjutant General Tharalson an
nOunced this week that Colonel J. H.
Frame has been joined by Mrs.
Frame; Mrs. B. G. Boyd of Hillsboro
has gone to the front to join Captain
Boyd, and the wives of other officers
from Grafton and the eastern part of
the state are planning an early de-
parture for Mercedes.
While no one can state definitely
how long the boys will remain at the
front, the fact that so many officers
are sending for their better halves,
and the further circumstances that
everyone in the First is being measur-
ed for overcoats, is considered evil
dence that long stay is in prospect.
On the other hand, some Of the men
in their letters home suggest that
the overcoats are to be furnished for
their protection when they enter
northerly climes en- route to North
Dakota, and that an early return is
presaged by the issuing Of this heavy
garment.
Among other officers whose wives
are now with them at Mercedes are
Adjutant T. s. Henry, Of Valley City,
Major Alex Fraser, Of Fargo, Major
Patterson, of Lisbon, Captain Richie,
of Valley City and Captain Mclean,
Of Kenmare. The ladies are thor
oughly enjoying the novel experience,

This was made plain to the count,
agents, in conference at the agricul
tural college this week, when Thoma!
Cooper, director of the experiment
station, outlined the years program.
Livestock--by reason of the turr
things as taking in this state, and the
general interest of the farmers-Wil
form the most important topic at the
short courses and single day insti
tutes.
"We advocate growing into the live
stock misunderstanding into it, rath
er than buying into it," Mr.. Cooper
explaining to the Forum today, in out
lining the years work as he presented
it to the county agents.
mo farmer should buy into the live
stock business" continued Mr.. Cooper
He should gradually develop live
stock as feature Of his farming bust
ness, and by so doing, he is in better
position to handle the business. TIC
this end, the station and it's county
agents are developing their energies
and will do so more vigorously during
the coming winter, than ever BEFORE
Coupled with the livestock business
is the growing of feed crops, and more
attention will be paid to that feature
in consequence of the states trend to
ward stock raising.
Manufactured products should be
the farmers aim," said Mr.. Cooper

ing beef, manufacturing pOrk-in 9th
er words instead of hauling the grain
to market on four wheels, let it walk

County agents also are being pro
vided with an adequate knowledge OF
the progress of cooperative work, de-
velopment of that feature being rapid
in recent months. Because farmers OF
this state are so thoroughly interested
in cooperative effort, it is pointed out
that effective county agent work can
be accomplished along that line. The
agents are being given data on CO.
operative work as carried on at the
experiment station, as we'll as the de-
partment Of agriculture at Washing
ton.
Rural credits, the method of organi
cation under the new federal act, also
were outlined-it being expected tina,
the agents will become factors in the
promotion of that work.
H. B. Fuller, of the bureau of mar
kets, in charge of the north and west
ern states, addressed the agents yes
terday afternoon on the general con
ditions in the extension work, and the
attitude of the department at Wash
