at Fancy Prices at Salt Lake
City.


(Reprinted From The Sunday Tines
The record for a high priced ram
was broken a second time last week
at the ram sale in Salt Lake City. The
first case noted in The Times dis
patches Thursday was when the sum
of $1,000 was paid by Hobbs q Gill
lette, of Bull, for a Rambouillet. The
next day d. w. Detwiler. of Filler, paid
$1,000 for a Hampshire, registered,
and also Butterfield imported eve.
S. S. Neher of this city also paid $3.50
for a registered lamb. County Agent
Donald Mclean who was at the sale
says that sheepmen declared it a sur
prising success. A recent ram sale
at Columbus, o.. had not been so sue
cessful The Salt Lake sale will here
after be an annual affair. The inter
est shown in fine grades Of sheep
throughout the mountain region has
encouraged Mr.. Mclean to believe
that the Twin Falls county ram sale
will be a history making event.
Some of the sheep at the Salt Lake
/ City sales had exciting experiences
Fourteen ship loads were held two
weeks in a port in the north of Eng
land before being allowed to sail. Az
ter they started, they were chased BY
submarines and four were sunk. Mr.
Mclean says that the Salt Lake City
sale will hereafter rank with the
English sales and that sales in sur
rounding country will prosper CORE
spOndingly.

WIDELY FLUNG SPY I.
PLOT UN'EARTHED
Department of Justice Discloses
Huns System Covering
the United States
ASSOCIATED Press by y. 8. Naval Com
munication Service)

WASHINGTON, July GA Hun spy
plot with ramihcations extending all
over the country has been unearthed
by the agents of the department of
justice, according to official announce.
meuts made yesterday afternoon III
this city.
1t has been known for some time
that the secret service men have been
at work trailing the men and women
suspected of being agents of the Kais-
erbund, and that the work has cover
ed practically every large city and
many of the smaller cities of the cOun'
try, but nothing like the dimensions
of the conspiracy nor the multtudinous
ramifieations of the system had been
suspected.
The announcement of the activities
of the department was accompanied
by the statement that "if the spy ac-
tivitics of the enemy in this country
should be published, the account would
startle the world, with their complete.
ness.'
The announcements continues with
the assertion that the government is
hard at work trailing the spies and
hopes soon to break down the system.
