COBURN NOTES

Inc Coourn squad was hard at work
Tuesday night Coach Haines took ad-
vantage Of the wet field and ball giving
the boys thorough training in the art
of running on muddy fields and han
ding wet balls. Much of the practice
was devoted to throwing forward
passes with slippery ball. When
practice was over. the boys were pre-
pared to handle the ball almost as we'll
as if it were dry.
A short scrimmage was held. The
elevens were required to resort to open
plays and end runs. The squad is pro-
crossing fast and should be in tip
top shape by Saturday.
Brisk has not returned from Port
land. He went with the squad last
Friday and stayed over 1t has been
rumored that he has entered West
brook Seminary but this could not be
ascertained as the truth last night.

Washington, g. CThe representa-

ing today, outlawed poison gas Ms an
Instrument of modern warfare. The
decision came after some hours OF de-
bate and was unexpected in some
quarters.
After the adoption Of the Anti-Gas
resolution, the committee took up the
aircraft question, but reached no de-
cision on that matter. The aircraft
question will be renewed Monday.
Opinion is that the aircraft method Of

A GREAT NEWSPAPER

This week The Courier-News, Non

putting on a real subscription contest
in an effort to increase it's list to a
point where no daily of North Dakota
will come anywhere near it. They
have established a mark of $4,000
which, when reached, will put the
Courier-News on a self-sustaining
basis. -
As a special inducement subscrip-
ton solicitors have been instructed
that where necessary they are to take
$500 cash and a 60-day post-dated
check for the other $500, thereby
bringing the Courier-New within
reach Of everyone. The Courant trusts
that all Leaguers of Bottineau County
not now receiving the Courier-News,
will make their remittance as soon as
possible and thereby place the real
paper on 8 self-sustaining basis.

ducts of the Farmers Terminal Pack
ing Co. of Newport, Mimi, have been
enjoying a special run of favor in the
Twin Cities since the big packing COM
panies cut wages and forced the
union operatives in their plants out on
strike. The Farmers Terminal is still
paying the union scale and there has
been no strike at it's plant. Union
members and their friends are return
ing this favorable treatment by pat
ronizing the farmers packing COM
pany.

EQUITY FARM POOL JUSTIFIED

Farmers need no better argument tn
convince them Of the utility Of u pool
upon which they can obtain = certain
advance in cash than the bearjsh news
that certain grain grade trade jour
naus are nov circulating, says 4 state
naent BY the Equity Grain Growers
Pool, q Minneapolis trade paper says:
The real trouble with the markets
is that around 100000 900 bushels Of
cash wheat lis pressing on the Amer
lean markets. the actual supply in the
visible and IN the hands &c mills and
IN country elevators On October / be-
ing officially reported at 211,OO0,oOO
bushels
Of this cash wheat, that is press
ing u the market avast volume of
it IS the "stsred wheat that farmers
have taken to local elevators. When
country elevators are full Of wheat,
they ship it out, sell it, put the mon
ey in their bank accounts for leave
it on deposit with their commission
~companies) and they expect to be
able to buy back enough Of this wheat
to meet the demands Of any farmer
who present their storage ticket for
redemption.
But when this stored wheat is thus
sold it becomes a part of the sspres-
on the market, just as the over
selling of futures, otherwise known as
grain gambling does. It helps lower
the price of She grain left in farm
ers' hands. If the above mentioned
Minneapolis grain trade journal is
correct in its analysis, then this pres
sure would have been relieved if that
$50, 000, 900 bushels could have been
and not thrown onto the mar
ket; that is already glutted.
The Equity Grain Pool is accom-.
plishing that result, bringing this
grain together and holding it off the
market. Over a million and a quar-
ter bushels have been pledged and a
great deal has already been shipped
and is nov in actual storage in Mime
apolis, Mimi, and Superior, Wiscon-
sin.
A farmer who has grain either in
his granary OF stored in elevators for
which he holds storage tickets, is able
to get an advance of go per cent of
the local value ana not be forced to
market his grain on this ruiniously
low market. i
