By an overwhelming vote the people
of Norway have decided to separate
from Sweden. The vote was taken amid
great enthusiasm. 1t was in the nature
of a referendum. Norway will remain a
monarchy, however. and not become a
republic. The people are not ripe for
this radical move, it is said.

There Is this year 332,4ll acres under
cultivation Of the 2,790 farms in this
county, a larger acreage sown than in
any previous year, despite the amount
OF stubble land which had to be plowed
this spring. There were 224 1862 acres
sown to wheat, "a, 1872 to oats and 1871
acres sown to flax, These together with
the average acreage of barley, rye. corr
and other farm crops, should with the
present existing outlook easily en-
able Cavalier county to maintain it's
lead over the balance of the state with
a total yield Of some seven and one-half
million bushels of grain.
Cavalier county has also made another
record according to the assessment re-
turns IN the way of increased valuation
OF real and personal property this year.
n IN this respect it may be stated that
the county has twice doubled its
total valuation inthe past five years. The
abstract of the tax list of real and per
sonal property at the low valuation fur
nished for assessment gives us the
following interesting comparisons of the
growth and development of Cavalier
county within the past five years.

Assessed Valuation in 1904 ...... '5188 sS N
Assessed Valuation in 1900. ........, i's07' AZ T
Increase In Five S., 462, 378 U
The county'S levy for taxation at the
present rate is meeting the running ex
pense and satisfying the demands OF the
various funds while the increasing
value in real estate each year together
with the additional railroad taxation
that the new lines will bring should in
aShort time give the county a balance
on the right side of the ledger.
