Plan TO SELL !.
NORTH DAKOTA
HORSES IN EAST
Farm Bureau Hopes to Ship
IS Carloads to New Eng
land This Winter.

Valley City. N. D., Aug. 1.-The
horse sales department OF the North
Dakota Farm Bureau federation, Is
laying plans for the sale Of 1910
horses-35 carloads-in New England
markets next winter, Ed. S. Delaney.
valley City, in charge, announced to-
day. Expenses will be pooled and
the animals will be sold at. cost, the
service being open to all members of
the Farm Bureau.
This pool will be composed of
farm chunks'-animals ranging
from 1850 to 1850 pounds in weight.
The bureau is ALSO working on a plan
to find markets for a heavier class of
horses.
This venture follows, a successful
invasion Of the east by North Dakota
horses last yea when Mr.. Delaney
working for the state farm bureau
found a. market for $50 animals at
satisfactory prices through eastern
Ter, secretary of>the state bureau.
Plan Pleases Buyers.
Eastern buyers like to secure their
horses in this manner because they,
thus get better stock, according to
Mr.. Delaney. IF the. horses are sent
through the usual channels they go
through some Of the large markets
en- route east, often. contract disease
and get f1abby2before they finally are
sold. Ely the direct sales plan they
go right to the center where there is
a demand for them and are sold in as
good condition as that in which they
left the, home farms. Incidentally
much of the expense Of unnecessary
transportation and Of keeping them
penned LID in St. Louis n Chicago is
avoided.
It was thought hest to hold first
plans to thirty-fve carloads because
a large number might glut the mar
ket. More will be sold If the market
demands them. y
The animals will be listed early
enough SO they can be properly Mt
ted-trained and fattened for sale
before they are sent away accorc;ns
to Mr.. Delaney. This fitting is i'm
nprtant for it adds forty per cen to
hthe horses value at the other end of
the trip he says.
The horses will be inspected before
they are accepted. This does mot
mean that they will be hand picked,
according to Mr.. Delaney, but simply
that he will guard against accepting
animals that are diseased or are not
fitted for! the eastern markets. thus
saving the trouble of transporting un-
galable animals.

The Boston massacre Is grossly
misrepresented in this book, In ia
vorite British version, as follows:
"It was a mere street brawl in
numbers, and was begun by the
citizens who annoyed a passing file
Of red-coats by pelting them with
ice and snow.
"The soldiers lost patience and
fired into the crowd. killing three
or four and wounding others. In
due time there was a trial and two
Of the soldiers were convicted Of
manslaughter, branded and set free
again"
There is confusion and dispute in
the Anglicized histories regarding

warning came to Lexington too
late. Others say he never reached

and which has become odiously

1T was not much Of a battle,
either in numbers or time; but As
our orators love to tell US, that

around the world"
IMAGINARY STORIES.
The Anglicization of American
history Is progressive. 1t had al
ways been true up to 1918. when
the Nicolay book appeared, that
the British commander at Lexing-
ton ordered his troops to fire.
In 1918, Mclaughlin and Van
Tyne in their revised school his
tory omit this fact, stating merely
that "at the first volley the little
% American band fled, leaving their
dying companions"
In 1920. Hart, revised, admits
"a shot was" fired. probably by the
English" Muzzey, 1920, has 1t.
Then came a volley Of shots, ap-
parently without the majors
orders"
Revised school history appears
to be exchanging places with fic-
ton. Modern fiction is conformed
