A Large Increase.

There has been a large increase in
the population of North Dakota i'll the
past year, as shown by the school CEN
sus of the state recently completed
in the different counties. Reckoning
four individuals to each child of
school age, the increase of population
would be about $4,000. This is be-
lieved to be fair proportion. The
total number of school children in the
state in 1899 was $4,000, and the school
population this year is 92,347, an in
crease of s,O3s. The increases show the
greatest in the counties to which there
has been large immigration from Iowa
and other states. The greatest pro-
portionate increase shown is in Pierce
county, where $50 more school chill
dren are reported than a year ago.
Stark county. to which there has also
been large immigration, shows an
increase of 433, or about 1000 in popu-
lation. McIIenry county shows an in
crease of sos children; Barnes county,
407: Benson county, 374; Nelson coun-
ty, 376; Ward, SIT, and Wells, 4o7.
The largest population of school chill

OF the Ignite as compared with the
bitumnous was shown to be $3.46 per

here for S2.G5 per ton, the saving each
