AT:C0SM0S line
Extension May Be Made to Thorpe
Before the Close Of the Fall
Work

It is barely possible that by tonight
the Luce Line extension west of Hut
Crimson will touch the Cosmos town
line. Several crews have been at work
at different points along the route and
their work was in the process of con-
Meeting up this week. Work trains will
be able to use the new grade.
Representatives of the company
have been in the field, including ".
e. Sederstrom of this city, who are
soliciting farmers west of Cosmos
town for bonuses Only a few sigma
lures remain to be secured, according
to Mr.. Sederstrom. When that has
been accomplished contracts will be
let for the extension to Thorpe and
perhaps beyond that point before the
snow flies.
The village of Cosmos will be off
the line abiut quarter of mile and
to the south of it. It is quite prob
able that the town will be moved in
order to be nearer the trackage.

FARM HOME BURNS
WITH TOTAL Loss
Complete Loss Of House Furnish
ings Suffered by Olson Family
in Blaze Thursday

Fire practically caused total loss
Thursday afternoon when the resi-
dence of John Olson, renter on the
#Spicer Land Company farm a half
mile West of Spicer village was burn
ed. The cause of the fire was un-
doubtedly the kerosene stove which
had been burning in the kitchen and
on which water was being heated.
Mrs. Olson was at work I'M the barn
washing cream bottles and had en-
tered the house to secure some hot wa
ter for her cleansing work when she
discovered the kitchen in flames. She
did not dare attempt rescue Of any
of the family belongings as the flames
had enveloped the entire kitchen and
spreading rapidly to the other rooms.
The call was sent to Spicer and the
department responded A hose was
stretched from Woodcock Lake but
the fire had gained such headway that
every effort to save most of the struc-
ture was futile.
No one was in the house at the
time of the fire. The total loss Of the
furniture and other belongings amo-
UNITS to about five hundred dollars.
The house was a four room dwelling.
The Spicer Land Company will re-
build the home in the very near fu-
ture.
Mr. and Mrs. Olson are now stay
ing at tie Carl Ah'be:g homo in Spi-
Ger until a home is ready On the farm.
The old folks are the parents of Mrs.
A. E. Danielson Of Willmar and have
the sympathy of the community and
the friends in their financial loss.
Several of the Danielson boys and
Mrs. Danielson visited the farm on
Thursday going out at four o'clock.

BELFAST, Feb. 10.-Three thous-
and listers, bitter enemies of south
ern lrishmen today joined the force
of 5000 constabulary patrolling the
Ulster frontier.
The Sim Fein extremists who
raided Ulster are still holding many
captives.
Sim Fein extremist leaders, whose
forces are scattered along the south
ern side of the Ulster border, tele-
graphed to Michael Collins, head of
the southern provisional government
that it was feared "Ulster men would
commit further outrages" referring
to reprisal activities of the unionists
for the kidnapping of 200 northern
ers.
Collins telegraphed to London that
an attack by the Ulster men would
only be possible with the support of
British troops, which would render
the situation most serious" This re-
port has created the worst possible
impression here and both unionistS
and Sim Feiners here fear an out
break.

VITAL FACTS
FOR LEGION MEN
Compiling Information for Re.
lief of Soldiers Who
Need 1t.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 10
Compiling tie vital facts about the
five million ex-service men in the
United States is job the American
Legion is now undertaking in its
nations service and compensation
drive, recently approved by the Leg
ior's conference in Indianapolis. The
drive is taking the form of census,
with each state department determin-
ing its own dates for carrying out the
work.
To lay a foundation for the pro-
posed "rota ting fund.-" to be raised by
the Legion for the benefit of ex-sol-
dierS in acute circumstances, is a
prime purpose of the census. Each vet
eran will be asked to specify whether
he favors the establishment of such
a fund and whether he would be will
ling to contribute his compensation
allotment, if he did not need it, with
the passage of bonus legislation. The
money thus raised would be loaned to
needy service men at low rate OF
interest and with no security.
A further aim of the census is to
record war disability cases. If vet
eran was wounded or gassed, or was
sick, or suffered any injury in the SER
vice, if he has an ailment that can be
traced to service, he will register the
facts on the QUESTIONABLE and assist
ance will be provided by the Legion in
filing compensation claims. Every man
will be urged to carry government
insurance.

HARDING SUBMITS
TREATIES TODAY
Continued from Page u

the conference treaties replace men
acing disagreements and establish
suritieS instead of uncertainties
which might lead to armed conflict.
THE powers in conference" said
the president, ''took the world of the
Pacific as they found it in fact. They
dealt with actualities by voluntary
and unanimous agreement and have
added to mankind's assurances and
hopefully advanced international
peace"
That the Treaties are not based on
force was his contention.
1T is worth while saying that the
powers in this conference sought no
concert to dispossess any power of its
rights or property" he continued.
"All the signatories have given up
rights which they had as their con-
tribution to concord and peace but at
no sacrifice of national pride, with
10 regret or resentment to later flame
in conflict. The offerings are of free
will; the conscience is that of world
cooperation; the observance is mat
ter of national honor.
''These treaties leave no power de
posted.
can assure you JNe nine pO"ets
have been brought more closely to-
gether, they are stauncher neighbors
and friends, they have clearer and bet
ter estimates of one another, they
have seen suspicion challenged and
selfishness made to retreat, and they
are more strongly willed for right
and justice in international relations
than ever before.
II believe with all my heart the
powers in conference have combined
to make the world a safer and better
and more hopeful place in which to
live"
The President invited prompt ap-
proval of all seven treaties.
Without ratification it would be i'm
possible to readjust the naval program
he pointed out.

Poorest NelU Wheat Crop
In History Says Expert

sand and dust storms, leads to the be-
lief that prospects for the crop are
the poorest in history"
Consumption of much of the avail
able wheat and prospects for slim
production this year were reflected
in future dealings on the Chicago
Board of Trade today.
The upward trend of May and July
wheat started about weeks ago on
receipt of news from the southwest
that crop conditions were decidedly
unfavorable. With no improvement in
sight, quotations have gone generally
higher since then.
Better prices for the available wheat
supply and the prospects of high prices
for the new crop will spell prosperity
for many farmers.
The advance in prices is also ex-
pected to increase the acreage in
spring wheat which is sown in April.
