There is even danger of friction
among the Allies. There is friction
now between Italy and the Jugo- Slavs."

il with the purpose Of setting forth
the agricultural advantages that Cam

fact. The purpose Is to place before

advise the prospective settler AZ to

1t to yourself to erect your buildings,
sink your well, prepare your garden,
and ascertain how close you are to

may wish to go into mixed farming,
combining the raising Of stock with the
growing Of grain. In this case you
will look out for some shelter from
sun. wind and storm, and want farm
a portion Of which may be cultivated
for grain. and pasture fields connected
with it. You may make this out Of the
open level prairie, but you will do bet

raising of cattle, or sheep alone; then
you will care less for the open prairie,
but select something that may cost you

No matter what you may want, unless
