UNCLE SAM. BOOK PUBLISHER

EORTY-FOUR carloads of paper and five of
binders boards will be required for the
next annual edition of the yearbook of the
Department of Agriculture.
This is one of the biggest jobs that come every
year to the biggest printing office in the world,
and the quantities of the various materials
required for the great edition of three hundred
and sixty thousand copies staggering
For the covers of these books sixty-two
thousand yards of cloth are used and the pages
are held together with nine million six hundred
thousand yards of thread. When the last
volume leaves the bindery, there will have
been used twentv-one thousand eight hundred
and ten reams of printing and thirtyone hum
dred reams of plate paper. and one hundred
and sixtv-seven thousand five hundred pounds
of boards for covers. Each book is secured
by linen tape sewed on by machines, and one
hundred and ninety five thousand yards of
this material will be used in the edition.
For securing the covers eight thousand
pounds of glue and thirty barrels of flour are
necessary. The silver lettering represents
one hundred and thirty thousand sheets of
aluminium, which III recent years has super
seeded gold leaf. though the cost is the same.
a train of sixty cars would be required to de-
liver all the materials entering into the year
book; but, anyhow, the Postoffice Department
will distribute the books to sixty thousand
different points.

Terence marching with the air of pro-
prietor. leaving Murtagh and Moreen alone
with Mrs. MacAvoy.

for a moment Then she said as she pre-
pared to follow the others, going to

Then she felt her way down the slope a
wistful old figure. Murtagh followed her with
his eyes Then he looked down the road
that led to the sea, and at last he turned to
Moreen. Her sad eyes had never left his face.
The sun struck across her bright hair and she
stood with her back to the treasure one
who stands away from dross.

he tore off his constabularv cloak and his cap

THEY stood together with peaceful, glorifed

Big Business Interests Involved.
In the case Of the state against the
Standard OIL Co.,. which had q hear
ing few days ago in Bismarck, an
idea was given as to the value of the
company's business in North Dakota.
The cons stitutionality Of the Kof1el
antitrust Law under which it was
threatened to take away the license
tor discrimination was questioned by
the attorneys of the company at tile
hearing referred..to. 1t vas developed
that the oil company has in North
Dakota 6ltank stations. The move to
deprive the company of its business
is naturally resisted by them and
nothing but long and vigorous lie.
gal fight could have been expected,
the beginning Of which was seen in
the preliminary proceedings. In ad.
dition to the tank stations the com.
pany claimed real estate, val ued at
sl20, 600 and at that time, over $50,
600 worth of petroleum in their
tanks, and during the last year claims
to have shipped into the state six

1t is announced that the 500 rail-
way company will continue building
its extensions in North Dakota and
that recent decision of the Mime
sofa supreme court, granting the road

Mr.. sinkler's Views.

Mr.. Sinkler's Views.
Edward Sinkler Of Grafton, N. D.
was west bound yesterday.to address
q meeting of the state firemen at
Mandan, at the request Of number
Of delegates to the state tournament.
Mr. Sinkler is q Candidate for con-
gress as an independant, adhering to
neither faction Of the dominant par
ty. He has made the most extended
campaign of any candidate and is
confident that he will get flattering
vote. From sfreely comforting with
leading men Of both republican fac
tions and from cleaning sentiments
in different parts of the state, Mr..
Sinkler finds that there are sup
prisingly large number of localities
where conditions are entirely differ
ent,. In fact. each town and each part
OF the state seems to have differing
sentiments and different conditions
regarding the issues and candidates
before tile voters. For this reason,
says Mr.. Sinkler, 1t is difficult to
forecast. the result in certain districts
because the..voters differ SO radically
in their views Much Of this mixed
state of affairs is que to the personal
following Of the leading candidates
for cong ressional and state nomina-
tions, the reasons chat favor some
one Of the we'll known candidates In
one part Of the state, would operate
against him In another. Personal
contention seems to make up the
most important issue IN the cam
paigp, TOR lack Of any other real sub
stantial objection to be found In the
conduct Of the states a1airs or the
record Of the candidates who have
been longest before the public.
