GERMANY SEEKS LOST TRADE
Would Regain Her Prewar Place in
Commercial WorId-Cunning
Is Shown

Brussels.-Signs are not lacking
here of the attempt being made by
Germany to regain the place in the
commercial world which she lost
through the war.
Goods now in the market in Belgium
are often typically German. They are
supposed to have been introduced Sc
cretly into the country via neutrals
such as Holland and the Scandinavian
countries.
One outstanding feature Of these
goods, however, is the disappearance
of the German trademark, but the
German cunning does not halt at this.
The imperial crowns are now replaced
by American eagles in an attempt to
make the goods pass off as American,
while others bear British and French
trademarks. The names of German
firms are completely absent, but the
is too typically German
to go undetected.

ELK DRIVE CATTLE
AND SHEEP FROM FEED

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho.-Wo
was telephoned here Saturday af-
ternoon from ranchers and stock
men Of the Teton basin section of the
valley just over the range on the
Idaho side from Jackson Hale, Wyo.,
that great herds of elk had come
down from the mountains into the
valley and were feeding on the hay on
the ranches. In olny,a few instances
is the hay protected by fences and the
elk have been helping themselves and
in some instances driving away the
cattle and sheep.
The snow throughout that section
is the deepest ever known at this
season and the elk have been driven
down from the mountains fully six
weeks early.
The elk are protected and the
ranchers and cattlemen are helpless
in the matter as they cannot shoot
the elk and have had to hire riders
to patrol the basin section in order
to drive the elk away from the hay.
