CREAM THIEVES ON DAIRY
FARMS

''havs you cream thief on your
farmf" IL pertinent question at the
head OF circular being sent out by
". A. McKerrow Of the agricultural
extension division Of the University Of
Minnesota. -" -
In answer to the question, Mr.. Nc
Kerrow says that A farmers in 9 cow
testing associations in Minnesota do
have cream thieves, or separators that
waste butterfat. Out of 10 separa.
tors tested it was found that / in s
was stealing from It's owner. ....' .
To prove up on your separator, it is
suggested that you take a sample of
your skim.milk from the spout and
have it tested at your creamery or at
the college Of agriculture. There is no
possible excuse for cream separator
losses. -

COW PRICES LIKELY 70 BE MUCH:
HIGHER s%Sss5zssz9sEs


HIGHER
a. J. Mcclure Of the extension divi-
sion Of the Minnesota College Of Agrii-
culture Loo for the prices Of cows to
be much higher next spring than they
were last spring, if the war continues.
He, therefore, urges farmers to keep
their cows, especially in northeastern
Minnesota. Mr.. Mcclure says:
Last spring farmers in northeast
ern Minnesota bought common cows ct
from $75 to 1925, and grade cows for
as much as $175. Now, with !. short
age Of feed, cows are being sold from
the same section Of the state and many
are going to the .stockyards to be
slaughtered.
To sell q COW that you win need
again next spring, or that will be need
ed in your neighborhood, win surely
prove loss. IF the war continues, It
Is possible that the price Of cows next
spring will be double that of last
spring. If you need all the cows and
heifers you have, it is public duty
to- keep them. A small farm in the
timbered section Of northern Mime
sofa without cows is almost without
means Of living for the owner, and
surely without sufficient means Of
helping the country in the present
emergency. '"~
"You can buy hay this fall much
more easily than you will be able to
buy cows next spring. We believe it
good b4siness to mortgage cows, it ne.
cessary, to buy feed. A warm barn
will save feed. Fix your barn so that
the temperature will not get below
freezing in the coolest weather.

 CHICAGO, Oct. H. The Reid Moore interests today wrested con trol of the board of directors of the Chicago. Rock Island and Pacific rail road from Nathan Amster of Boston. who. as spokesman of a stockholder committee at a previous meeting. had named himself chairman of the execu- tive committee of the road. Nine of the thirteen directors elected today were Reid-Moore men; the other four. in cluding Amster. were with him as in surgents. The directors were:
 Reid-Moore group-James A. Pat ten. B. c. Dawse. Don C. Shedd. Ma thaniel French. Charles Hayden. Fred w. Scott, James N. Wallace. James Speyer and J. F. German.
 Amster group-Peter c. Ten Eyck. Prof. William z. Ripley, Henry Bru- CTS, Nathan l.. Amster.
 The election of directors came at the end of an all-day fight. Previously the stockholders had adopted an amendment to the charter whereby it becomes the duty of the stockholders instead of the board to adopt and amend bylaws.

ACTIVITY UPON ALL FRONTS NOW
 IS VERY SMALL
Reciprocal Artillery Engage ments Characterize tn e Fighting In the West. East ern Front is More Likely.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

Comparatively little fighting activ- ity is in progress on any of the bat tie fronts, except in the nature of reciprocal bombardments. In Elan ders Thursday both the British and French troops kept to their trenches in the new positions they hold as result of the drive of Tuesday.
 The big guns on both sides, how ever, were smelling opposing positions vigorously.
 More Rain Falls
 Additional rain over this region has accentuated the swampy condition of the ground. and it probably will be several days before the British and French start another raid against the Teutons. Wednesday night the French repulsed a heavy counter-attack east of Draiebank.
 Along the southern front in France the Germans again have met with de feat in attempts to capture French positions on the east bank of the Mouse in the Verdun sector. The at tacks, however, were not made in strong force, being more in the na- ture of trench raiding operations,
 Russ Activity Forecasted
 The prospects of return to heavy fighting in Rumania, with the Rus sians the aggressors, seem good. On the Rumanian plain and near Braila the Russians have heavily bombarded the Teutonic allied positions, while the Germans captured important Danube towns north from the GalatZ. On the northern sector of the eastern front near Riga the Germans after heavy bombardment pushed back the Russians in the vicinity of the Pskoft high road.
 Macedonian Front
 Daily artillery duels in Macedonia, with the entente forces exerting the greater power, are increasing, espe- cially in the direction of Doiran and north of Monastir, and it is probable that at no late date the predicted allied offensice in this region will begin.

(By Review Leased Wire.l

GLOBE, Oct. 11.-Operators of cop per mines in the GlObe-Miami dis trict have reached no compromise with the strikers on the plans sub mitted by the commission. according to statement made tonight by Sec retary of Labor William B.

 Operators Not Interviewed.
 We have not interviewed the op- orators as yet. The striking miners have agreed to abide by any deci- sion the commission may make pro vided that the mine operators will likewise agree to abide by the deei- sion of the commission. As we have not yet interviewed the mine opera tors We do not know what attitude htye will take.
 "We are not as yet hearing the op- orators but expect to do so as soor. as we have concerned our hearnings of the men at work"
 Will Hear Saturday.
 The secretary was asked how long it would be before the operators are requested to appear before the com mission. He said that at the rate the hearings are proceeding nov it will probably be Saturday before the mining men are summoned.
 Joseph s. Myers. a member of the commission. announced tonight that he will depart from Globe tomorrow morning for Fort Smith. Ark. as con ciliator in a Bell telephone strike iu- volying 80 oerators.

 Enemy countries will rejoice and will not believe that this is a ridicu- lous exaggeration invented by an in- capable statesman unable to find oth- CT means to justify himself It was not a revolutionary conspiracy, but a case of revolt"

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. II. - From the coal operators standpoint it was further emphasized today at the car shortage hearing before c. R.
