Special Rates on
Shipping Household
Goods to Dakota

Ignorance on the part of railroad
freight agents at many points some
times is responsible for increasing
the cost of transporting household
goods and other possessions Of pros
pective residents to North Dakota.
f. NJ Hendricks. traffic expert for
the state railroad board, said today.
The reason for many overcharges
on this class of freight. Hendricks
said. is that only few Of the agents
on the Great Northern. Northern Pa
cific and 500 line railroads appear
to be familiar with the tariff supple
ment issued by these roads last
March in which substantial reduc-
tions were made in the rates on emil

Former Governor Writes Re-

Denmark

Minot, y. D., Oct. 12.-Work of the
League Of Nations. the cooperative
movement as particularly pertaining
to Denmark, and the activity of
European countries in reforestation
and forest culture have been dill
gently studied by Il. a. Nestos OF
Minot. who is now en- route to the
United States.
Mr. Nestos. while in Denmark, the
leading European country in the CO.
operative movement, conferred with
men who have made and are making
agricultural and cooperative history
in that country and for the world,
nc declares, in letter just received
in Minot. The missive was written
ut Basel. Switzerland. Mr.. Ncstos
sailed for the United States the fore
part Of last week, and will remain
at New York for several days.
ON Denmark, I found 4 most ex-
tcnsive and intensive cooperative

highly centralized for the purchase
of seed, feed and fertilizer, for i'm
provement in methods of dairying.

the preparation Of beef and pork for
the market and in many homes"
says the former governors letter.

which was announced a cooperative
bank Of large capitalization. l be-
came interested at once and went in
and sought audience with the man
aging officer. When he came in
discovered that the bank had closed
a few months before, about $16,00O,-
900 to the bad. Both from him and
from many others with whom
talked. l learned story rather sad
to one who believes in cooperative
enterprises. and quite illustrative of
the danger in cooperative organi-
cations.
There had been some carelessness
and extravagances in management
much as with some of the enter
prises with which we are familiar in
North Dakota, and some losses had
been suffered there on loans made to
the cooperative concerns for the
purpose of building factories for the
condensing of milk" -

NATURE LOOKS OUT FOR LAZY
FLKTFISH

ny AS0fA oCASaSC
London-Nat has a way Of
looking out for herself.
For instance the flatfish, an Off
shoot Of the perch group, has an
eye on each side Of its head when
first Matched, and it swims verti-.
caily like a fish is supposed to swim.
But at an early age one eye mi
crates around to the other side of
the head, and the lazy fish sinks to
the bottom, and henceforth lives
with the eyed-sidc up.
C.. Tate Raglan, eminent English
zoologist, explains:
"Being an offshoot Of the perch.
the fish inherited the lazy habit Of
lying on one side,' he says. "And
if such a fish found it profitable to
lie in wait for its prey in this pc.
sition. it would naturally try to
make use Of the eye of the under
side; pressing it upward against the
edge Of the frontal bone"
/ Tate then explained that after
many. years of this effort on the part
Of the fish. nature has stepped in
and now does the trick without
bothering to ask the fish il he wants
1t that way or not.
