Christiania, Octo. 26.-America' s
export trade in Norway, which tre-
mendous strides since 1914, is men
aced according to trade experts, by
the high rate of exchange of the
American dollar and which has al
ready affected American exports with
various other Europeanscountries.
Figures of Norway's imports for
1919, recently made public, show
that about one-third of the Norwe-
gian imports were from the United
States.
American exporters gained a hold
in the Norwegian markets at a time
when Norway's chief source of sup
ply was closed. Requirements which
could not be covered in the regular
markets nearer home, as was the Gus
tom prior to the war, had to be taken
from America, or not at all.
1t is now being pointed out, how
ever, by Norwegian trade experts
that in order that the United States
wegian trade, it is essential that
American manufacturers stipulate
virtually the same terms of credit as
other countries
The dollar now costs more than
twice as many kroner as it did prior
to 1914. This high dollar rate
makes imported American goods sc
expensive that similar goods from
other sources, homemade or import
ed from Germany, can be sold cheap
er and which eventually will crowe
American articles off the market.
Merchants suggest that if the trade
relations between Norway and the
United States are to be maintained
at anything like their present level, il
will be necessary for the American
dealers to grant long terms of credi
and for the Americans to buy mor'
goods of Norwegian origin.

BIGGEST ESTATE EVER
ADMINISTERED THERE

Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan. 31.-Accord-
into the inventory of the estate Of the
late I. j. Todd, deceased, which has
just been filed in the probate court Of
Minnehaha county by the executors
Of the will the total value Of the estate
Is s451,193.S4, consisting of real estate
valued at SIT, 284.43, and the remain
der of personal property, including
bonds, notes, mortgage and other evil
dences of credit.
This is said to be the largest single
estate that was formerly owned by
one individual ever offered for pro-
bate in Minnehaha county, and the
estimated total amount of inheritance
tax accommodating to the state of
South Dakota will be approximately
$4,000. In addition to this the federal
government will also receive sum
slightly less as it's share Of the estate
from the legatees.
Under the terms of the will Ida M.
Todd, the wife, is TO receive one-t third
OF the total amount of the states less
$4,000. The remaining two-thirds
plus $4,000 is to be divided equally
between five children of the de-
ceased.

ance. 4
I'm the past twenty years the North
Dakota farmer who marketed his wheat
in November December made more
money than the one who held his wheat
until spring"
The sale of futures against wheat
generally anticipates all storage, inter.
est and carrying charges and those who
tell the farmer that the specula tors
buy wheat when it is cheap in the fall
and hold it for a rise and sell it when
it is expensive are very much mistaken.
Speculation anticipates all of these
things so that the price instead of al
ways being higher is often much lower,
as in the pr. sent instance.
Grain traders are divided into two
almost equal bodies who watch each
other like hawks. When the farmers
organizations learn to use this great
distributing machinery many OF their
troubles will prove but imaginary.

NEW "WALTZ KING" is
FOUND IN POLISH PRIEST
BY Reciprocal News Service.

Linkov, Pcland.-Father Marcinek,
chaplain of the American home for
refuge children in this village, bids
fair to become q new waltz king of
Europe. His talents are said TO rival
those of the famous Lehar of Merry
Widow fame.
This latest musical discovery is a,
man whose life work has been far re-
moved from anything relating to the
Iheater Shortly after being ordained
he was sent to the church in this lit
tie village $50 miles west of Warsaw.
For parishioners he had the people of
the village and the peasants from the
countryside. Wandering theatrical
troops occasionally came this Way but
the nearest approaches to entertain
ment were the various fete days of
the district when native songs and
dancing prevailed Now and then the
faithful who dropped into the little
church during the day for few min
ufes prayer, peasants though they
were felt the presence of a master at
the keys, as the old organ played by
the village priest gave out some inn
proyisation. 1t was the pastors re-
lief from the sordidness of his daily
life.
With the establishment of the
refuge home, Father Marcinek's hid
den gift for writing catchy music
came to light. Early he displayed an
interest in the home and the children
and began composing airs for their
entertainment. The place began to
hum with these impromptu bits of
music and the Americans themselves
soon became infected by them. One
piece, THE Cockatoo'' composed in
waltz time, became popular hit
when his fame reached Warsaw. His
songs are being published, the pro-
ceeds being devoted to the care of the
war orphans.

would seem wise that farmers

they take it to the elevator they will
