The affair at the ball park Sunday
afternoon was a surprise to two OF
three of us. and In particular 10 the
home team. Out OF Gogebic county
came an aggregation OF ball tosserl
and swatters from the town OF Wa

tie surprise party which was pulled
upon us poor innocents that startled
us for nine innings. straight.
The advance dope on this Gogebic
team was to the effect that they were
~ gentle little cntf.. sort Of little
sister team that liked to play ball,
for no apparent reason-and our
management needed a game Any
way. this bunch or. some other bunch
came down last Sunday, presumably
from Watersmeet
Before the first inning was over
they had counted three runs and the
fans began TO sit up and reflect, for
by the same token, we had seen some
free hitting in that inning. Thre,
hits there were as perfectly and
safely laid down as 1t Is possible I
place these things.
The home boys pushed one run owe
In the initial inning. Annear bringing
in the score.
Time and again Watersmeet threat
ened with men on bases, but at such
times Murphy braced, the infield be-
came alright and anything that went
sky-high was pulled down to earth
by Peterson in left field !
So the Gogebic boys laid up a won

We will say for the home team than

WARNS FARMERS.
NOT TO DISPOSE
THEIR HOLDINGS
Department of Agriculture Says
That Spectators Are
Very Active

Washington, ID. G., Sept. 13.-Prices
of farming lands in many sections Of
the United States, especially in Iowa
and the other corn belt states, have
risen with such rapidity that serious
consequences may be expected, espe-
cially with the return Of normal con-
ditions. This is warning to farmers
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. ..'..
Spectators, many of them business
men Of the cities, in many eases have
reaped big profits by buying and re-
selling without making any substantial
contribution in return. Farmers have
sold land at prices that seemed high,
and then have bought again at still
higher figures, losing thousands Of
dollars in the exchange The bona ide
farmer who purchases land at present
high prices may find the returns on
his investment abnormally small If
earnings should decline when normal
conditions are restored, and may find
himself seriously embarrassed if he
has financed the purchase largely on
credit.
That is summary or the situation
as it is viewed by investigators Of the
bureau Of farm management sent by
the department into the regions of most
marked speculative activity. Here Is
summary Of their advice which Is
broadly applicable to the majority Of
farmers in the regions affected, though
t. may not fit every individual case.
Much Of the present speculative ac-
tivity has been due to the fact that
SPECTATORS have been able to catch
some farmers unawares, buying their
their farms at a much lower figure
than was justified in relation to prices
in adjoining regions. Therefore, you
should be careful about selling to a
speculator who is buying to sell again.
If it is worth more to him it probably
may be worth more to you. If you
own farm and desire to continue
farming be very sure before selling
that you can obtain out Of the proceeds

Delegates From Wisconsin, Min

BISMARCK is INTERESTED

St. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 13.-lncrease
high cost Of living; reduction OF the
number of grades from ten to five;
increased help in handling the mail;
that the acts of Congress be not emas'
culated and that the rulings OF the
postmaster general be subject to some
other provisions, and that all classl-
fication of routes be under single
classification are among the demands
that will be presented to the wage
commission by delegates representing
the Railway Mail Association at st.

Chicago, Milwaukee, Portage, La

According to officers Of the associa-
tion the recent system OF grading the
mail clerks that time for proper rec
ognition of service and promotion re-
quires too long time before an en-
ploye is given the maximum wage.
They also assert that the Increased
volume of mail since the end OF the
world war is now being handled by
a war force, and that it makes it
necessary for the clerks to do extra
work.
Regarding the classification of work

OF your sale as good farm as you
have sold,
If you desire to purchase farm
you should be very sure that the price
you pay is fully justified by the proba-
bic net earnings of the farm when
conditions become more normal.
Be careful that the buyer of your
farm Is able to complete his payment
on March first in case he fails to re-
sell. In general it is safe to require
an initial cash payment Of one-third
the sale price.
Be cautious about speculating your

WILL MAKE RECORD
OF PREDOMINATING
BREEDS OF CATTLE
Federal Agricultural Department
to Obtain Census by
Counties

In the nationwide campaign to pro-
mote the general use Of purebred
sires and better live stock, the United
States department of agriculture will
keep records of the agricultural coun-
ties according to the breeds OF live
stock which pAedominate in them.
Practical experience has demonstrate
ed the desirability of communities con
centrating on the production OF only
few breeds and types Of the dit-
ferent classes OF live stock. Such
management not only enables the in
dividual farmers to aid each other IN
improving and upgrading their stock,
but also gains for the communities
wide regulations as centers for certain
breeds The raising Of several domi-
nant breeds in any community makes
that locality the mecca for prospect
i've purchasers who are deslrous or
buying animals of those breeds, and
also makes it possible for buyers to
obtain stock In large quantities.
For the service Of persons interested
in examining or selecting live stock,
the department will keep a record OF
the dominent breeds and varieties OF
the different kinds of live stock In
each county where such information
is obtained from accurate and depend
able sources. Pending future develop
ments in this work, breed or variety
will be considered dominant if 100
or more good purebred sires of that
breed OF variety are owned and used
for breeding in a county. Sources OF
information concerning these farm
animals will include county agents,
officers of state agricultural colleges,
and representatives of state boards OF
agriculture. The department requests
the state and county live stock asso-
Citations transmit figures and all data
available on the purebred sires OF
their region to their local county
agent or the state agricultural college.
This material should include a state
ment of the number of purebred sires
in the county, together with the date
when the information was gathered.
Initiative in collecting and reporting
these data rests entirely with the
county and state officials.
Information gathered in this way
by the department of agriculture will
be available to the public. Thus per-
sons wishing to purchase any kind
of live stock may ascertain readily
what counties in the United States &C
cording to the records, have pure
bred sires of the various breeds in
which they are interested. Naturally
where as many as 100 purebred sires
are used in a community, these herd
headers will stamp their quality to
a considerable extent on the live stock
of that county and lead to the pro-
duction of many desirable grade fe-
males, as well as purebred stock of
both sexes. Furthermore, in counties
where a certain breed is considered
dominant, even though there are less
than 100 purebred sires, such facts
should be reported and will be kept
as supplementary records.
