Good Reading for Sunday
HE DID WAKE Up.

Rip Van Wrinkle was a very lazy man
He hit the pipe and rushed the can
He spent much time playing with a
NUT,
And for hunting and fishing, he was
a nut.
He had his trials; a seolding wife
was one
So he wandered off and when the
day was done,
As he hadn't showed up his wife
locked the house,
Serves him right she sputtered,
the good for nothing louse''
Twenty years of slumber to some of
us is fun,
Rip knew he'd enough when all is
said and done.
He had one good feature and wasn't
such a pup;
You've got to hand it to him HE

FOE PRACTlCED
PETTY TYRANNY
{. OVER CAPTIYES
Commanders Took
Every Chance to -Coerce
Prisoners.

The commandants Of the notorious
German prison camps of the Hanover
command. who subjected British Of
ficers to gross indignities and brutal
treatment, have been exposed in the
latest report Of Sir Robert Younger,
Judge Of the high court Of justice, and
his committee, which has been deal
ing with the treatment by the enemy
Of British prisoners. of war.
The committees report says it is
not in the great events, involving at
least n case of homicide and which
will receive special attention on some
other occasion. that the true signih-
canoe Of the German horrors is to be
found, but in the petty tyranny con-
stantly exercised; the punishment Of
men for so-called onenses, needless
restrictions and the ~over-bearing con-
duct Of the German administration.
The report says in 1917 General
Won Haenisch, in charge Of the pri
son camps, carried out a system of
coercion in conjunction with Captains
Niemeyer, twin brothers, command
ants respectively al Holzminden and
Kalusthal.
General vonaH aenisch is termed ar
with a violent temper. He took VERY
opportunity to curtail anything which
would make life less irksome. He
called the prisoners dogs and pigs. as
also did General Pavlovski. inspec-
~tor-general Of the Hanover command.
On reaching the British sector Of
the line. General Won Haenisch de-
clared, speaking of the British, Il am
hoping everyday to- receive the order
to send some of these people to be
put up behind our lines to be shot by
British Shells"

BOX SAYS DEFENSE
COUNCIL IS BACKING
LIVESTOCK GROWERS

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. s. The
North Dakota council Of defense is
backing a new live stock company re-
Gently organized by prominent
leaguers and which has its headquar-
ters in the Twin Cities, whose avowed
purpose is to encourage stock-grow-
ing, and, especially, dairying. in North
Dakota by ~persuading the farmers to
stock their farms with registered sirea
and dairy cows.
Our state as a whole remains a
g~rain-growing state" said Secretary
Thomas Allan Box yesterday in com
menting upon this new departure.
There are many regions, however,
which are not adapted to grain and
where crops are uncertain. It would
be an advantage to the farmers in
these areas, as well as to the state it.
self, to go into more diversified farm
ing, getting the best cows and sires
available, both in beef and dairy
breeds, and also handling more sheep
to crop the waste which the article
will not take carr Of.
1T is the desire of. the present ad-
mlnistration to encourage stock rails
ing and diversified farming, giving the
farmer a monthly income from his
milk n cream checks, Offering him
a method Of probably consuming
surplus feed, and. al the same time,
returning to the soil part Of the fer
tility which Is removed from It.
The state council of defense in
vites correspondence from farmers
who are interested in this plan. I am
confident that we can furnish them
with statistics and arguments which
will convince them and that. We can
place them on the road to a greater
prosperity and a more certain income
than they have heretofore known"
