State Fair announced an increase IN
premiums totalling nearly $4,000

BRITISH NAVY .DWlNDlINC
BY TERMS OF TREATY
Continued from page

In the meantime sixteen obsolete
vessels have gone to the scrap heap.
They are the pre-dreadnaughts; Mars
Caesar, Queen, Swlftsture,- Hindas-
tan, Lord Nelson, and the dread
naughts Bellerophon, Temeraire, st.
Vincent, Hercules. Inflexiole Indo-
mitable, Crescent and Commonwealth
and Dreadnaught, (the original of
her type). These ships it is true
were partly scheduled for the scrap
heap before the Washington confer
ence took place. The treaty Of Wash
ington sealed their fate and they
have accordingly. been "scrapped"
That is to say they are no longer
on the actual list of the navy. Some
of them have been broken up, others
used as targets, others again minus
their guns, rest in dry docks of
Davenport and Portsmouth, rotting
gradually with but a couple Of care
takers on board-ships which were
once the pride of the British Fleet.
Of the later types scheduled to go
and already off the ,navies active
list are the Superb-in a few weeks
to become target for the bombs
of British air squadrons-The Erin
already in the hands of shipbreakers
the Aginourt, New Zealand, Princess
Royal and Lion.
But the process is gradual. A
ship which has cost four millions cam
not be broke up in week. To de-
stroy a great battleship is an ex-
pensive matter and at least half
million dollars goes at the foot of
the bill.
Consequently the big vessel for
destruction is first Of, all paid off
and with a NUCLEUS crew steams
around to the last port where she
waits further orders. There are
many such vessels in what is known
as "Rotten Row" of the dockyards.
Some of them will be stripped Of
all their fittings and their guns melt
ed down, sold maybe for recondi-
tioning as freighters in the case of
light cruisers, others sold to such
foreign countries as the Treaty Of
Washington Allows n
Many of the fittings of these
monster war vessels repay their or
iginal placing in the battleship.
Range finders can he used in gar
rison forts which overlook the sea,
Encompasses, winches,s steam launches
I Saulicssderricks, Telephone sys-
tens, searehlights can and are be-
ing used again. in the newly built
vessels or sold to the merchant SER
vice. '.~..
The actual position resulting from
the conference as regards the capital
ships in service Of Great Britain and
America to date is as follows:
Capital ships-America, 81. -:
Capital ships-Great Britain, %.
But America must scrap one bat
tleship and seven battle cruisers
with Britain scrapping four battle
ships already built, so that in capital
ships the two navies viii not be
widely different. =. ~
In destroyers, America leads Great
Britain, but in light cruisers Eng
land remains far supreme.

for bravery in France. The yarn is
he stood peace as long as he could
and finally went into his present oc-
cupation for excitement's sake.

Several months ago "highjackers"

with booze, on a road not far from
New York City. The "highjackers'
got "the drop" on the tbootleggers
and the capture therefore was made
without a struggle. When the /"high-

liquor, after stripping the drivers
and guards, they neglected to take
an automobile which was part of the
caravan.
The bootleggers sped away to a
nearby town, secured revolvers, and

opened fire, killed two of the "high-

the pockets of their victims, and

RED LAKE COUNTY MAN !
. REVIEWS RIVER FLOODS

Continued from mage -
long in 1915 came a heavy rain and
the river bottoms with adjacent low
lands were again under water. Due
to the excessive feeding of the Clear
water river by the numerous bitches
the river was unable to carry off all
this water for weeks resulting in the
grain being destroyed and the hay
could not be cut until long after sea-
son. -, ,H
At this time the demand arose
that some action be taken whereby
the Clearwater river would be able
to dispose of this surplus water.
Petitions were circulated to that ef-
feet but without result.
In 1919, another flood came, the
most destructive of them all destroy
ing the crops on the low lands for
miles back. Again the demand was
pressed that something be done
about the Clearwater river. Meetings
were called which resulted in the
circulation Of petitions to straighten
and deepen the channel OF the Clear
water river and to put in dikes and
dams if necessary for food water
control. With all the bitches that
have been constructed emptying into
the Clearwater river more still seem
to be needed with the result that
much more land would be drained
into it. Farming on the low lands
has been practically at a standstill
during the last few years due to the
fact that the farmers arc unwilling
and unable to take the risk of an
other loss.
Farmers residing in the Clearwa-
ter basin including the pioneer sett-
lers assert that they are paying taxes
on town and county bitches from
which they derive no benefits except
ing for road purposes. On the other
hand they have suffered considerable
damage from water thus drained in
to the Clearwater river. These pio-
neer settlers who have cooperated
in the past in putting through bitches
emptying into the Clearwater river
are of the opinion now that those
