COUNTY FEARS
SHORTAGE OF MEN

Donnybrook, n. D., Jan. 3o.--1t is
a reasonable expectation, and one
that is borne of experience among
farmers, that last year being a dry
year and little fertility being taken
out of the soil. that the ground prop
erly worked this spring should yield
an extraordinary crop.
The soil froze full of moisture last
fall and this is said to be an ideal
condition. There will be plenty Of
moisture for starting the crops and to
keep them growing for a long time.
Ward county farmers fear that
there will be a labor shortage because
of the large number Of men, who
have entered. military service.

tail buying, and with the delays in
shipments resulting from the trans
portation congestion, complaints of
less satisfactory collections are rather
more common, and ir some cases where
deliveries cannot be made with the de-
sired promptness cancellations of con-
tracts are reported. But while trans
actions generally are smaller in vol
urne, it remains the fact that in some
lines business is only limited by the
inability of producers TO book more
orders, and there are many indications,
notably in the west and south, OF a
disposition to provide literally for

MARKETS
Republican A.P. Leased Wirel

NEW YORK, Feb. s. - So far as
rrice changes in today's dull stock
market had any significance, they
probably represented tentative short
covering over the approaching holl-
days.
Industrials, shippings, oils and mo-
tors were in the foreground continu-
ously Steels and equipments made
up considerable of the previous days
losses and pools resumed operations
in specialties.
Coppers, tobaccos, dist.laG issues
and General Motors, the latter at an
extreme advance of 81: points, con-
tributed to the occasional upward
spurts.

GRAIN

CHICAGO. Feb. S.-With a new
priority order in force giving grain the
right of way over virtually all other
freight except fuel, the corn market
today showed downward drift. The
close was steady. 7sc net lower, with
March SL27& and May $1.25h. Oats
declined &c to sc net. In provisions
the outcome varied from unchanged
to 10c off.
Notwithstanding a general DISPOSE
ton to await actual results of the
priority mandate, easier feeling became
evident in the corn trade. Warmer
weather counted also as a bearish
factor, especially as no severe low
temperatures were expected for at least
several days.
Oats were under pressure, largely as
q. result of renewed talk of possible
establishment of maximum price
level. Large receipts Of hogs weak
ened provisions.
Close:
Corn: March s1279s: May s125K.
Oats: March S3c; May soc.

COMMERCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, Feb. Sums tomor
row will say:
In both increased producing and dis
tributing branches business more
clearly reflects the retarding influence
of various existing drawbacks, al
though a return to more normal con-
ditions is to be expected with a per-
manent moderation of the weather.
Curtailment of industrial and mer-
camille operations has already been un-
usually extensive and the restriction
OF work through the holiday obser-
vances not only causes added incon-
veniencc, but also tends to reduce the
purchasing power of many consumers.

That Many 21-Year-Olds Registered
on June ).

Washington, June 15.-Nearly COM
plete reports to the Provost Marshal
Generals office show that 744,S63
young Americans who have become o.
age during the past year registered
for military service on June 5. This
is 266,724 below the estimate of the
Census Bureau, but, since more thar
100000 unregistered 21-year-olds az:
ready are enlisted in the Army, Navy
or Marine Corps, the military author
tiles find the result entirely satisfac-
tory.
Army and Navy estimates place the
number of 21-year-old men enlisted a:
20S,5sS. This figure, combined with
the falling off in alien registration,
gives total of 1853 ,6S6, which means
that the Census Bureau apparently
missed the number of eligible by only
$4,000.

of Washington, was elected president
and the club was christened "Alexan-
dria City and Cornty WorkinGmcn's
Club"
The club IS regarded as Joke here.
It is believed the real object of tha
movement is to give the impression
elsewhere in this congressional dis
trct that Hon. c. c. Carlin's competi-
tor. will receive substantial support in
Alexandria. This is political camou
fiage, as there is nothing farther from
the truth. The vote sor White i'll this
city is known to he so small that it
can hardly be discovered with the aid
of magnifying glass.

DRIVE A FAILURE
German Crown Prince Brought to a
Halt on Western Front.

The crown princes drive against
the northeastern approaches Of Paris
has come to a dead halt. The night
from Thursday to Friday saw one
more desperate Aickcring up of often
sive action just west Of the Disc, nea:
Antheuil village but it was quickly
snuffed out by the French 75s and ma
chine guns.
Since then the whole area that has
been bathed in blood for five success
sive days and nights has seen no in
fantry action. The big guns o. both
sides have taken charge, and in ard
behind the lines the quiet work OF
consolidation has begun.
I.udendorff's attempt to draw a
straight line from Montdidier to
Chateau Thierry proved a dismal fail
ure-more costly in lives than any
thing the Germans have done since
Vcrlun.
