BIG SHORTAGE
OF MEAT STOCK
SAYS SHEPHERD
Heavy Sales and Slaughter
Have Occurred Among
Young Meat Animals.

Fargo, N. D., Dec. ia forecast
that there will be a big shortage of
meat stock and a scramble for breed
ing stock at the close OF the year, is
made by Professor j. H. Shepherd of
the North Dakota agricultural college
husbandiy department., who recently
returned from the international live
stock show held in Chicago.
According to Professor Shepperd, 1t
is time to think very carefully where
and what feed al be secured to the
best advantage. He says that a little
laxative grain feed given to stock
which is less sturdy, such as calves,
thin cows and other weak stock, will
help to get them through the winter
in better health and with more thrift
than IA be done without supplying
this additional feed.
Future. Prices To BE High,
While in Chicago. Professor shep-
'perd had the opportunity to meet and
talk with many prominent stockmen
who have studied the future of the
meat stock and the heavy horse bust
ness. 1t was generally agreed that
there is a shortage and that future
prices for meat stock are likely to
RULE high. The stockmen said this
statement was made on the high
prices which they had to pay at the
public auction for high class breeding
stock.

Employees q Concern Subscribe
! for $4,000 in Bonds
Ten SCOUTS WIN MEDALS
Muslin Found Not Guilty in Hartford
Miss Moore Reelected President
OF Aid Society-Aning to Represent
Berlin at Celebration

The employees of the Berlin Con-
etruction company have again lived
up to their traditions and have sub
scribed more than $4,000 to Liberty
Bonds. 1t is gratifying to note that
every one of the employees subscribed
to at least one bond, and in many
cases to more than one, taking bonds
for members of their families.
The number of employees of this
company Is not any where near as
numerous as many Of the manufacture
ing plants throughout the state and a
great many of the employees are for
etgn born, many being Austrians and
Germans, once more proving.that real
American men and women are not
simply born here but are made here,
ever ready at all times to render as
distance to their adopted country. They
considered it their first duty to invest
gladly their available means in the
government bonds.
It did not call for any great effort to
secure the subscriptions. The men in
most cases frequently asked for the
bond application blanks and 1t was
=, necessary in only few instances to
explain to the employees that it was
(. their sacred duty to subscribe to these
bonds.
In speaking of the campaign this
morning an official of the concern
said that 1.-THE Berlin Construction
company wished to express its appre-
4 citation of the splendid work their en-
ployees did in making the bond issue
a success at the plant"
'It was surprising to note he said,
chow the laborers responded. In some
cases it was easier to secure a sub
scription from a foreigner than from
a citizen"
Tho success of the sale at the plant
= can only be realized when 1T is noted
that the concern employees only $50
help.
