By Urtted Press
LONDON, July 31.-Allied replies
to Britain's reparations note were laid
before the cabinet today by Marquis
Curzon. Their contents are to re-
main an official secret.
1t is understood, however, as a re-
suit Of a suggestion by Italy, that the
British note to Germany may include
an invitation to join the League of
Nations
Germany is understood to be quite
willing to enter the league.
Replies of France and Belgium were
delivered formally in writing while
that OF Italy was conveyed in a brief
conversation between Lord Curzon and
the Italian ambassador.
A reply from Japan Is also expected.
In many quarters it is believed
further interchange Of notes will re-
suit from the cabinets consideration
of the French and Belgian suggestions.
Although 1t was reported the French
note permits OF further exchange of
views, 1t is understood the INITIAL
British impression of 1t is decidedly
pessimistic.

The Williston agricultural sub-ex

His comment is in answer to sug

the sub stations should be aboilshcd j

In statement Mr.. Converse said
"If the agitation for the construc-
ton of irrigation projects in the
Slope country continues to gain IL
strength as it has in recent months
it is to be expected that a way will
be found in the not distant future
to construct and put into actual

When this shall have been accom-

will fact problems of a character
very different from those with which
they have been accustomed to deal.
"The test of a successful irrigation
project lies not chiefly in the deliv-
cry of an adequate supply of water
at reasonable rate, but lies in the
successful solution, by individual
water users. Of the problems of farm
management which arise in connec-

users fail to deal successfully with
such problems. The experienced far

irrigation as the city bred man has
to learn about farming in general,
"In order to farm successfully un-
der irrigation, it is necessary to OBJ

per acre. This is true because the
amount Of labor required per acre is
SO large that there must be an ade-

TEAM WORK
is NECESSARY
Implement Dealers Told That
Other Fellow Must Be
Considered

Fargo, N. OAK, Jan. 26.-The
future demands real team work be-
tween the manufacturer, the deal
er and ultimate consumer of farm
implements if the trade is to
emerge from the reconstruction
period successfully, R. A. LathrOp
of Hope told delegates to the an
nual convention of the North Da-
kota Implement Dealers Associa-
ton, assembled here today. These
three entities are all in the same
boat, he said, and the boat would
not stand much rocking.
Mr.. Lathrop, who is secretary of
the association pointed out that a
shortedsighted policy on the part
of any one of these three factors
would handicap the whole recon-
struction program for the several
interests were so closely inter-
twined that they must either stand
or fall together.
"We feel" said the speaker,
chat year by year, business grad
ually develops more and more of
a consideration for the other fell
low, and we are coming to realize
that we are as links in a chain,
and chain is only as strong as
it's weakest link"
Comparing business conditions
in the implement trade with the
business of year ago, Mr.. Lath-
rop declared there was some cause
for encouragement, although the
trade was still far from a proper
balance in regard to the farmers
buying and his selling power. The
state as whole, he said, harvest
ed a good crop, and despite high
freight rates and grain grading
regulations that are unfair, con-
siderable liquidation took place.
Prices, also, he stated were are
slightly better than a year <ago
and freight rates a trifle less.
After several years of curtailed
buying of machinery, it was the
opinion of the speaker that farm
ers would soon have to come into
the market for new equipment.
Waiting for lower prices, he said,
would avail the farmer nothing,
since it was the consensus of opin-
ion of dealers that the bottom in
implement prices had been reach
ed.
