LIVE STOCK BREEDERS TO MEET

The feeling is becoming quite
general that with as many breeders
of live stock as we have in our
county we should endeavor to get in
closer touch with each other for the
purpose of more successfully dispos-
ing of our surplus stock. We have
a number Of breeders of pure bred
hogs. Why not begin now to plan
on having combination sales of
Breed sows, some time during the
winter of 1918? It takes time to
get ready for such an event and
the time to start is right now. An
ether important point is the matter
Of getting in closer touch with our
selves. About year ago, through
the association, we shipped into this
country about twenty pure bred
cows and heifers, for breeding pur-
poses. Each one should have a calf
by this time and most of the male
calves will likely be for sale. Let
us get some means to know who
wants to buy and who have to sell.
For these and many other reasons of
Importance meeting was called for
Saturday, February II, at l o'clock
p. ,m., at the Club Rooms over Tar
alseth's store, at which time we eX-
pect to have rousing good meet
ing and to have an address from one
Of the able stock men Of our State
Agricultural College. We want to
urge everyone interested in better
live stock, who can, to be present
and become members Of the associ-
alton for, "In union there is
strength, and we want to make this
association a power Of strength in
this part of the Red River Valley.
It has been demonstrated time
and again that the average farm
throughout the country that made
the largest net gain was from re-
ceiving the largest amount Of in
come from live stock. This being
a fact, the sooner our people are
possessed of that idea, the more
surely will prosperity be ours.
Again, let us urge all of the pres
ent members and as many others
as possible to attend this meeting.
The time of meeting is changed
from 2 o'clock p. m. to 10 o'clock
p. NJ, to avoid conflicting with other
gatherings on the same day.

Secretary,
Marshall Co. L. S. B. Assn.

NEW TELEPHONE DIRECTORY

A new telephone directory has just
been printed by the Sheaf for the
Warren Telephone Company and
will soon be distributed to the pa
irons in this city and on the rural
lines. Not less than seventy new
phones have been installed during
the past year. The rural service has
been extended to a number of farms
hitherto without telephone connec-
tion and many improvements have
been made on lines and equipment.
Hans Swanson, the proprietor, is
sparing no effort or expense to make
the Warren telephone exchange rem
der good service to the people. The
young women who courteously,
promptly and patiently attend to the
wants of patrons at the central are
Miss Jennie Swanson, Miss Minnie
Lofberg, Miss Barbara Ovsack, and
Miss Viola Stromberg. Harold Col
den is the line man and also repairs
all phones out Of order. Warren may
we'll consider itself fortunate in hav-
ing excellent and up-to-date tele-
phone service, both local and long
distance.

there with her curls, hoping for a
position as teachers pet, but had nos
figured that all teachers had curls
Of their own, to order.
Lunch was served to every pupil
each being handed a basket, signifi-

and each penny being redeemed for
hot lunch. The pupils were alsc

LETTER FROM GUAM.

U. S. S., Piscomataqua, Dec. 26, '16
Editor Sheaf:
I would have written to you be-
fore and changed my address, but
I did not know where would be
stationed, but I guess now I will be
stationed on this ship for some time.
I have seen quite bit of Asiatic
country since I left the good old
U. S. A. We left San Francisco
the 5th of June, 1916, and landed
in Manila, P. T., the 3rd day of
July, 1916. We had fine weather
all the way across and stayed around
Manila until the Goth of July, leav-
ing for Shanghai, China, on the u.
S. S. Ajax and got there the 5th
of August. I got to know Shang-
hal pretty well-stayed there about
two months.
I then went to the U. S. S. Gin
cinnati and she left for Hong Kong,
China, and stayed there a little over
week. We then left for Olon-
gago, P. l., that's about sixty miles
north of Manila. There is where the
navy yard is located, so they trans
ferred me to the U. S. S. Pisca-
taqua, the ship I am now on. 1t
took us seven days to come from
Manila to this island. Guam is the
name of it. We had some awful
rough weather coming here. Every
body was sea-sick and we could not
cook or set the tables for five days.
We had only canned goods and hard
tack, and were kind of hungry when
we got in. We get mail here once
month when the army transports
go by for Manila. may be back
to Gods country in the early part
of 1919.
Sincerely yours.

Our basket ball team donated
their money to Stephen last Satur-
day. 1t was somewhat Of sur
prise for the Stephen squad, how
ever, when they found that the
Warren team had perfected de-
fence which gave them rather seri-
Gus trouble. Only by making use
of their superior weight were they
able to grab the larger end of a
5-32 score
Our boys displayed better basket
ball ability in this game than usual.
With as much improvement in the
next two weeks we hope to give
Thief River Falls some trouble in
winning their second game with
Warren.
We were unfortunate in having
one Of our best players injured dur
ing the game. Paul Bartholow
twisted his knee. We all hope to
have him back with us in a few
days.
