COST OF POLICING CITY
Moorhead Pays Less Than Average
and Cost Is Higher by Reason of
Many Transients.

According to compilations made by
Attorney Witherow the police of Moor
head cost 1920 per capita, which i'm
comparison with other parts of the
country is lower than the average as
per official police reports. Mr.. With
crow adds that the cost for this city
Is made more expensive owing to the
fact that the transients at a point like
Moorhead require that the city be
more extensively policed than some
other places of like size.
The average police cost for the
country is $3.50 to $1.75 per capita
with the single exception of the city
of Washington, D. c.. the price there
being $3.50 per capita; the reason be-
ing that there is such a great amount
of the policing of public buildings, etc.,
outside of actual municipal business.

Portland, Ore, Feb. THAT the So
luton of the problem of how to keep
people on the farm lies in adopting
the European plan of forming COM
munity centers throughout the coun-
try districts, where farmers shall live,
doing away with the isolation of the
lonely farm house and making coun-
try life attractive, is the belief of
Mrs. Clara Fl. Waldo of this city, an
authority on rural questions. Mrs.
Waldo has long been interested in these
matters, having studied them exhaust
lively, both in America and Europe.
IF this plan was followed, the coun-
try would be so attractive no one Would
want to live in town." said Mrs. Waldo.
Il do not mean the old rambling coun-
try villages but modern social center.
with clubhousea, library, churches.
boarding house for the unattached and
the aged, modern cottages, poultry
FARMS dairies, cold storage plants, etc.

trio plants and amusement places
Young people leave the farm for the
city because of the loneliness and lack
of amusement features offered. BY
bringing the rural population together,
where there will be social life, they
win be content to remain in the coun-
try and will, in fact, prefer 1t. The
drudgery of farm life, as IL is now
known, will be relieved and county
fife will become a normal well-bal-
anced existence
Mrs. Waldo's idea is taken from her
observations in Europe, where, for the
most part, farmers live in villages, 60
ing out to their fields in the morning
and returning at night. She embodied
her suggestions in a recent lecture at
the University of Oregon, where she
was listened to as an authority on the
subject, she having been lecturer be-
fore state State grange for some time
and baving made extensive investiga-
tions along this line.

Grain News.

Chicago, Feb. Liverpool wheat Is
a higher. Weather throughout the
winter wheat belt is mild, but pretty
cloudy, colder with or less snow.
There Is a blizzard raging in the north
west. Our market is likely to open
higher, in sympathy with the firmer
cables but we believe on any fair ad-
vance there will be plenty of wheat for
sale. The cash demand was poor,
and this is a decidedly bearish feature.
Corn-Weather is cold and pretty
cloudy. Inclined to be q little bearish.
Cash demand remains very poor. Liv-
erpool market 70 higher; We see moth
ing in the situation to change our
opinions and advise sales on all rallies.
