Ordinary Farmer. s

L. Henderson of Warren. Mimi, re-
Gently sold a pure bred Polled Durum
steer, 2 years and 5 months old and
weighing 1880 pounds at 1880 q
cubic weight. The entire transaction
netted the owner $3O1.95. r.
This steer was bought by a local
dealer, was shipped to the South St.
Paul market where it weighed 1900
pounds and was sold for SIS. per cubic
weight. The result Of this transaction

Mr.. Lamberson is a well known
stock man, widely repuled for breed
ing pure bred Polled Durham cattle;
he is one of the boosters for more and
better live stock in the Red River
Valley. The steer, recently sold af-
fords an example Of what may be
done with live stock in this section
Of the northwest. It was pointed out
today. and also. what good results may
come from keeping good stock and
feed it with alfalfa silage and barley
and the ordinary feeds that experts
recommend every farmer grow for

Farms Here Haze
Contributed to
Scrap Iron Heap
Red River Valley Takes Active Part
IN Shipping of High Priced Scrap
Iron to Centers of the United States.

A local dealed this afternoon said
that the territory adjacent to Grand
Forks-and the Red River Valley as
a whole-had contributed its great
share to the shipping of scrap iron to
various places in the country where It
has been made into new articles of
use in industrial production that
aimed at winning the war with Ger.
many. The iron had been gathered
from all parts Of this section of the
country as we'll as elsewhere, and it
is said that the farmers generally
were amply remunerated for taking
he trouble to gather the scraps on
their places-scraps which before the
rise in price were left to disintegrate.
Before the wal scrap iron was sold
at $3.50 per ton-a price which made
1T hardly worth while to gather the
iron; but since 1917 a sharp advance
in price took place so that scrap iron
now is said to sell at 1850 per ton.
From this country hundreds Of thou
sands of tons have been shipped
abroad, and Grand Forks county is
said to have furnished a satisfactory
proportion of thu total quantity.

dor to the United States. is working
every day at the German foreign office
preparing data for the peace confer
ence, according to a Berlin dispatch
to the Express. To the Express cor
respondent Count Won Bernstorff said
that he Endorsed the plan for a league
Of nations. which he believes to be
practical He said that in It he sees
the only way TO prevent war by a
limitation of ornaments.
I'VE entirely agree with Premier
Lloyd George and want to get rid of
universal military service" he said.
Count Won Bernstorf thinks that the
German national assembly will meet
on January %. but believes that it is
unlikely to pass without trouble. and
hopes that the government will be
firm enough to deal with the situa-
ton.
They will only have to shoot once"
he said in discussing this subject.
1t is unthinkable that the former
emperor or any member of his family
will again rule over Germany, Count
Won BernStorff said. Asked If there

HARDEN SAYS RULERS
WASTED HUN STRENGTH

BERLIN, via Montreal January 6.
Writing in the Zukunft in connec-
ton with Germany's policy OF al
1iances, Macmillan Harden declares
that Germanys rulers merely squan-
dered the strength Of the nation in
an attempt to maintain the old world
system which had either to be radi-
cally transformed or perish
THE Hapsburg system. with Its
wiles and malice, Bulgaria's lust for
power and the maladministration of
the young Turks were not to be
saved" says Harden.
"Germany's Turkish policy was
especially faulty. German diplomacy
considered the friendship of the Turks
as good compensation for the gam
bling losses Germany suffered for
many years through her attempted
rivalry of British naval supremacy,
through sycophantic counting of the
caliph's favor and through the plan
ming of a land route to India
Harden concludes: "Britains allies
may now stalk about as victors while
Germany's companions have all be-
come cripples."
