guarding, bN both teams changed
tactics and shot at every opportunity.
The result was a contest of the
strong nerved.

the revised plans have been approx
ed the board will again call for bids.

STING FARMERS
ON POULTRY

A number Of farmers from the
Underwood vicinity, who Skipped
dressed poultry direct to some east
ern commission houses for Thanks
giving and Christmas trade were in
Bismarck Saturday consulting var
ious persons upon possible legal ac-
ton.
According to their statement, de-
duction of from % to 40 percent in
weight was made by the purchasing
commission houses without any eX-
PLANTATION being given. This is far
beyond the natural shrnkage in
shipping, they assert.
1t is declared by some that good
prices were paid by the same houses
during tne 1921 season and numeD

ers this year to ship direct to Chi
