Southwest have needed but little feed
and have had an abundance of range
feed.
Cattle
Cattle in North Dakota are gen
orally in scant fair condition. There
have been some losses the average
being three per cent; the outlook is
not promising. South Dakota cattle
have wintered well and losses have
yeen light. There have peen some
losses Of cattle in the east central
part of Montana where feed is short.
Cattle in general are In very good
shape. In Wyoming cattle are in
fine condition with light losses.
a Cattle generally over the range
area are coming through the winter
in very good condition and losses
have been very light. Breeding cows
are in good shape with prospects for
a good calf crop. Mild weather dur
ing February resulted in q slight
gain in the condition of the cattle
west of the divide while severe
weather caused some shrinkage in
North Dakota. In other sections cat
tie have done well. There was the
usual seasonal inactivity in the sell
ing of cattle on the range but few
sections report slight demand for
stock cattle.
Sheep
Condition OF sheep in North Da-
kota shows two point decrease dur
ing February. In South Dakota sheep
have come through the winter in fine
shape. Montana sheep are in very
good shape. Wyoming sheep have
wintered well and losses have been
light.
Favorable weather and rain on the
desert ranges resulted in an improve
ment of the sheep on the desert
ranges Of Idaho, Utah and Nevada
while the sheep in other sections
continued in good shape. Breeding
ewes are generally in good shape
except in the intermountain section
where dry conditions last fall were
not favorable. Sheep losses have
been unusually light and where
range feed was short, concentrates
have been used. February developed
considerable wool contracting in
most Of the western states with re-
ports "a to 80 cents in Texas and
20 to 80 cents in other states.

The Valley City-Dickinson game at
its start showed promise Of a close
battle, but before the end Of the
period it was evident that the Mid

had characterized them in their game
with Devils Lake. During the Sec
ond quarter, however, the Dickinson
men came back vigorously and
amassed IL points to 20 for Valley
City.
In the third quarter, the Midgets
again went into slump and the Hi

went on basket shooting spree dur
ing the last quarter and scored 10

DEVILS LAKE BEATS FARGO
IN TOURNAMENTS THRILLER

In the most thrilling game of the
tournament, Devils Lakwe defeated
Fargo. % to 81, to win the consola-
ton title.
The two teams battled on practical
" even terms but the drive and speed
of the Lakers gained them victory by
one point after the lead had see
sawed between the quints several
times. Three times the score was
tied and three times the Lakers came
through with goals to 60 into the
lead again.
Although Fargo started out list
lessly, apparently dispirited because
of elimination in the semi-finals, the
Midgets soon awakened to the fact
that they were facing threatening
aggregation in Devils Lake and for
the rest of the game fought desper-
ately.
The Devils Lake CUNTS pluck
brought cheers from rooters and
when the game ended, fans yelled
themselves hoarse, overjoyed to see
the so-called under dogs" win out.
First Quarter

throw after he was fouled by Brain
erd and for the rest of the quarter
the two teams battled, with neither
able to gain any additional points.

the Fargo men had hard time work

Second Quarter
Griffin put Devils Lake ahead
when he got through the Fargo de-
Tense for a short shot and Olson
duplicated the feat for Fargo. Olson,
fouled by Melhouse, made the throw,
while Luckasen tied the score with

lead and Melhouse passed another in,

CHRISTMAS SEALS

Announcement has been received
from the offices of the Maryland Tu-
berculosis Association, Inc, at Bal
timore, Maryland, of the appoint
ment of Mrs. l. D. Davis, of Elkton,
as Seal Sale Chairman for Cecil
county, for its twentieth annual Tu.
berculosis Seal Sale campaign, which
will open on Thanksgiving Day and
continue until Christmas.
Mrs. Davis commenting ON the
coming sale, said, st is our desire
this year to put over a banner Seal
Sale so that We may continue our
county health work on a larger scale
than in the past. Every one will be
given an opportunity to purchase
Seals, and have part in the preven-'
tion and eradication of tuberculosis
in our country, The work that has
been accomplished by the little seal
in the past twenty years is stupend-
Gus. Twenty years ago there were
more than 100000 deaths in the
United States from Tuberculosis.
To-day this has been cut by more
than half. Now is the time, not to
let up or relinquish in our efforts,
but to increase our health programs
and Tuberculosis work so that the
white nlague may finally and for all
time be placed in the category of
diseases such as Sman Pox"
Mrs. Davis has received the Seal
Sale posters and advertising material
which will be displayed throughout
the county in the interest OF the sale.
This year as in the past 70% of the
funds raised in this county will be
used to finance county health work.
OF the 800 which will be sent to the
State office, 20 will go towards fl
the National Tuberculosis
program. The $50 which will re-
main at the State Office will be used
to finance field work, educational
supplies, and clerical ser
vice for this county.

more than seven thousand pounds

Raymond S. Williams, special

to the bill of complaint of the North

the decision of the commission in al
lowing the Consolidated Gas and
Electric Company the right to con-

The case has been brought in the
Circuit Court at Elkton.
The Gas Company is scheduled to
file an intervening petition and assist

The case is not expected to be-

to gain strategic position for the pur-

Havre de Grace, close to the Con-

Mitchell Henry Gross, aged 81,
who was found Wednesday evening
on an Abandoned wharf in Elkton,
with his skull fractured, died at
Union Hospital the next day without
regaining consciousness. A post
morten examination showed the
skull had been fractured, evidently
by some blunt instrument.
Robbery is believed to have been
the motive for the crime. Gross,
who worked on a farm near Chesa-
peake City, is known to have had
about $40 when he came to the
town. When found no money was
in his pockets, his trousers and shoes
had been removed and were lying
beside him.
Police believe the man was assault
ed elsewhere and taken to the place
where found. 1t is reported that on
several previous occasions Gross had
been robbed in that section after he
had been drinking. Taft Malin, who
was arrested is alleged to have been
seen coming from where Gross was
found, about one hour previous to
the finding of the man. He denies
the crime.
