b. Il. Plowman Returns from DelcO
Convention.

B. B. Plowman, district manager in
this territory for Delco Light, has
just returned from Dayton, Ohio,
where he has been attending a con-
vention of Delco Ii ght dealers and
distributors.
He has brought back with him a
number of new thoughts and ideas
which will be put to work in the busi-
ness.
The Delco Light convention, he says,
was one of the largest as we'll as the
most impressive ever held by an in
dustrial enterprise in this country.
Memorial Hall, one of the largest
buildings in the ely, was entirely
given over to the convention dele
gates. The lower floors of the build
ing contained some thirty booths IN
which were displayed numerous cleo
trical time and labor saving devices
that can be operated by Delco Light.
In the course of their attendance at
the convention the men were taken on
a trip through the big modern factory
where Delco Light is made. Thirty
guides piloted the men through the
immense building, showing them the
up-to-date machines and methods that
enable the company to turn out a high
grade product.
While there the men had the op-
portunity Of meeting and hearing
some Of the most prominent farm pa
per editors in the county tell how
newspaper advertising smoothes the
way for sales, bringing the advan-
tages of a manufactured article out
prominently before the public, intro
ducing it, so to speak, to the people,
who have use for it.
Some of the sessions were devoted
to technical discussions which the men
declare greatly benefited them. In
fact they did not go to Dayton for
play, but to make study of Delco
Light, and all of it's advantages to
the user of light Of any description.
However, they found some time for
pleasure, and are returning home
much benefited, bringing with them
a different idea of Dayton, than when
they arrived there. dayton is one
grand city," said Mr.. Plowman, "and
the Delco Light Company is the great
est plant in the city.
They are calling the city Dominant
Dayton, and Delco Light dominates
Dayton.
The convention closed with BAN
quet attended by the Governor of the
State of Ohio and Colonel E. A. Deeds,
president Of the company, now in
government service.
The governor, in the course of his
! address, said to the men, "The thing
that you are selling day after day is
having a large part in the absolute
transformation of rural life, and
say to you that if the farm tractor
and Delco Light had stepped out upon
the farms of this great American con-
tinent ten years ago there would be
no food problem facing our Allies to-
day"

WRITES FROM
ENGLAND
MinOt Man Says There is Plenty to
Eat and to Drink in England
Tells About Trip Across.

E. d. Kelley received an interesting
letter from e. G. G. Willis, an old
time resident of Ward county, who
returned to his old home in England
recently, to reside with sister and to
look after his interests there. The
censor cut out couple Of pages from
Charles letter but we PRINT the 70,
mainder of it, which is of special in
tereSt:
Bassingham, England, Jan. is.
Dear Ed: l am sure you have been
wondering why you have not heard
from me since my arrival. l have
been here nearly three weeks. We
Went aboard the Adriatic Of the White
Star line on Dec. IL, but did not sail
until the next day. We were joined
later by seven other ships and all
made the trip together, but not by the
regular route, of course. The weather
was dull and cold but the sea not very
rough. The Adriatic is the steadiest
riding ship | have ever been on. We
were comfortable on the voyage but
rather crowded and help, as regards
stewards, was rather lacking. The
meals were as good as usual. We had
several drills with our lifebelts on,
each person being assigned to GER
tain boat, mine being No. 18, Deck B,
starboard side. l did not have any
use for it. The last two days of the
journey we were instructed to either
wear or carry our life belts all the
time. About two days out from Liver
pool we were met" (Here is where the
censor got in his work)
Nv AL of
Messenger and the Independent. He
says: "We have been having some
very cold weather with sudden
changes, | feel the cold exceedingly,
it is so damp. | miss the steam heat
ed buildings, but the bright open fires
in the CRATES are very cheerful. There
are fewer changes in the way Of liv-
ing than expected. Food, of course,
is dearer than usual, but many articles
are no dearer than they are in Minot
We are not allowed to use all white
flour for bread, but prefer the bread
as it is, made of part barley and part
oats. A two pound loaf costs 10
cents. Meat is also scarce, but so far
here in the country have not noticed
the shortage much. We generally
have meat twice a day and llways
have four meals the same as in olden
days Butter and oleomargarine are
very scarce, in many of the large
towns, but we are faring well. Sugar
is one of the articles which is regu-
lated. Each household is allowed a
half pound for each person per week.
We get along nicely with this, even
for cooking, too. AS many persons
do not use much tea or coffee, the
amount thereby saved goes for cook
ing. l have been to a number of tea
parties and we have had severil here
and certainly have not noticed any
lack of food or drink. People are
more saving now, which is a good
thing, but in the country places, there
is no suffering. 1t is doubtless differ
ent in Germany

Minot Man Invents Shock Loader.

|. B. Parsons, an old gentleman
who has been resident Of Minot since
last fall, is the inventor of shock
loading machine which he is now en-
deavoring to place on the market. The
machine is simple t. operate, and al
tho a full sized machine has not been
made, those who have seen the draw
ings believe that it will do the trick.
Mr.. Parsons is trying to interest cap
ital and hopes to build one or more
before fall. There will be shortage
of labor and if this machine can be
put on the market, it ought to prove
a boon to the farmers.
Mr.. Parsons has resided in North

Has Been Raising Sheep Since 1880.

W. c. Glib, Sr., old time Mountrail
county rancher, was a visitor in this
city last week. guest at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. C. F. Truax. Mr..
Glib, in addition to breeding horses
and cattle on an extensive scale, has
been interested in sheep in North Da-
kota since 1880. He has bred up one
of the finest lots Of sheep, Of the
Shropshire breed, shipping in his first
sheep from Toronto, in 1880. His
ewes last year averaged 8 IL pounds
of wool, which he sold for SO cents a
pound, besides his flock will about
double in number in year. He has
his place fenced for sheep, with a
string of barb wire at the bottom,
then a four-foot woven wire with a
couple of strings of barb wire on top,
This is practically coyote proof, and
altho there are many coyotes in this
vicinity, he seldom loses a sheep from
this source. He has never had any
disease among his flock.
Mr.. Glib crosses Shorthorn cattle
with Herefords and Shorthorns with
Galloways, besides has a fine lot of
pure bred Galloways. The above
crosses produce steer that makes an
ideal feeder and these are always
sought by the corn growers Of Iowa.
Last fall his two-year-old steers sold
at an average Of 800.
