that increased plant capacity must be

that the country may enter upon quite

Falling OF of Nearly so Per Gent as Com

Figures Also Markedly Lower.

War conditions are in part responsible
for the unfavorable showing, inability OF
steel mills. lumber mills, etc. to furnish
materials because Of war contracts hold

reduction is the changed conditions In

Alexandrian Is Drowned

Osakis Review: - Brownsville,
Texas, Feb. 16-Private Edward
Belavka Of Alexandria, Mimi, mem
Der Of c troop, First Colorado cav
airy, lost his life today in an at
tempt to return to the United States
a comrade alleged to have deserted
to the Mexican side of the Rio
Grande, two miles above Browns
Vile, last night.
Constructing a small raft, Belavka
and his brother, Henry, crossed the
Rio Grande, where they made pris-
oner of the alleged deserter. Since
the raft was only large enough for
two, Edward placed the prisoner on
it in charge of his brother. He then
attempted to swim the river.
A whirlpool swept him under when
he was within twenty-five feet of
shore. The body has been recovered.

T. A. Maanum of the Monarch
Hardware Co., is spending the week
in st. Paul, attending the Minnesota
Retail Hardware Dealers convention,
that is being held at the st. Paul
hotel.
The dancing party given at the
dining hall of the Alberta hotel was
very successful affair and everyone
had a good time. Music was fur
nished by the -Spaulding
orchestra of Alberta and was first
class in every way.
John Eystad left last Monday for
Conrad, Mont, where he expects to
size up the country with a view to
engaging in some line of business
that might look promising in the
western country. John had lots of
experience in the meat and store
business and it may be one of these
lines he may take up. His many
friends in Alberta wish him abund-
ant success.
