In America Is universally, regarded as
one OF the most remarkable features of
the worlds commercial progress, few
Of the worlds comercial progress. few
persons have any definite idea Of the
exact figures which represent this
amazing industry.
Each successive year seems to as
found, not only the public, but the
manufactures themselves.
At the beginning of the present year,
the United States government, and
many commercial bodies allied with
the industry, announced figures
that would almost seem to have
marked the zenith Of produc-
ton and the use of the mo-
tor car; but it appears that from a
very exhaustive and comprehensive ar
ticle in The Automobile, we have, even
as yet only scratched the surface.
The average percentage OF increase
IN the registration of car in the Unit
ed States for the past six months was
24.6 per cent as compared with 1916
per cent for the entire year preceding
January, 1911. At this rate, the per-
centage for the twelve months be-
tween Jan. 1 and Dec 81, 1912, would
be 4e.2 per cent, or an increase over
the twelve months preceding Jan. /,
1912, Of nearly 10 per cent.
The total registration of gasoline
passenger cars between january and
July this yea has been 859,S 5 for
the entire United States This is 1873
per cent increase over 1911. Between
July /, 1911, and July OF this year, the
American manufacturers produced
252, 569 cars Of all sorts.
An estimate based on the most con-
sentative and accurate figures obtain
able indicates that there are at present
in use In the United States $4,000 au-
t~omobiles, allowing 1858 as registered
in duplicate. During the last six
months there have been registered in
all Of the states 31,574 commercial
gasoline vehicles and $4,000 electric
vehicles, at a total registration fee of
$4,769,873.
Among the states New York still re-
tains the lead In the number Of regis
trations, with at total of 92,40T, a gain
of 8.43S car since the first of the
year.
ing the tremendous increase Of 19,401
between January and July this year,
and a total Of 1868.
New Jersey, by a Of her reci-
procfty bill, dropped from third to sew
enth place, and Ohio moved to third
place, with a total to July of Sc, 900, an
increase from the preceding year of
1000.
Pennsylvania moved to the fourth
place with a registration of 52,257, an
increase Of 1885.
Hionis took the fifth place, succeed
ing Massachusetts, which dropped
back to eighth. The total registration
in Illinois to July 1 was 4T,104, a gain
OF 1000 during the year.
Indiana succeeded to sixth place
with 1896, a gain OF 10000. New
Jersey took seventh place with a total
to July 1 of 1882. Massachusetts
occupies the eighth place with a reg
istratton of $4,000, a gain Of 3,093.
Iowa retains ninth place wit ha regis
tration Of $4,000 cars, an increase of
1000. Michigan is again tenth with,
34,5S8, or a gain of 6,792.

Music and Musicians
a Rsnnaissanes in Music.

Time was, Tor many years after the
war" that music became little more
than a tradition. For music, except to
genius, is not a necessity of life. and
most people { that time had to COM
fort themselves with the necessities.
Later, when prosperity began to
manifest itself in spots, the prosper
Gus took leisure enough to remember
back to the days when music was a
live and beautiful feature of social and
everyday life; when tutors were Inn
ported to teach the rising generation:
when every young woman with any
pretension to education or social
training could play the piano or sing
well enough to be entertaining at
least and when people from the west
and south went abroad to hear the
opera just as they go now to New
York or To Chicago.

The Theatres
B ~oPERAhoUsE.
Aug. 14-Margaret Ellington.
Aug. I9Uncle Josh Perkins.

The new Ellington theatre, now in
course OF construction in New York,
win have for it's opening attraction
Margaret Ellington in Charles KEN
yon's play of tenement life, KindIing,
which viii be seen at the Fargo opera
house on Wednesday evening.
KindIing was produced at Days
theatre in December, and ran for sev-
eral weeks. Previous bookings and the
inability to get another theatre short
ened its Tun In the last week of it's
engagement twenty-five OF the best
known writer's of the country banded
themselves together and formed the
Kindling association. which constjtut-
ed a group of boosters to further slim
llate interest in this play all over the
country. This endorsement was en-
tiredy unsolicited, and It was not
known to the management until the
movement was well under way. They
made an appeal to all the writer's of
the country to boost the play, as 1t
was worthy of their endorsement.
Their appeal met with instantaneous
success in Chicago, where the play had
long rum, and in other cities which
had been visited since its first produc-
ton. In their appeal the writer's of
the Kindling association requested
that Miss Ellington come back to New
York with her wonderful play, and
they would help her. She is going to
return, this time TO dedicate the thea
ire which is being named after her.
It is said that this is the first time
that a group OF writer's and dramatists
ave ever given a play such a unique
endorsement as Miss Ellington and
Kindlfng have been accorded. Il is
further proof that San Francisco has
developed one Of the best authors of
the present day, and that Miss Illing-
ton is recognized as the greatest
emotional actress Of our native stage.
Supporting Miss Ellington are a num
Der Of well known players, among
whom are Byron Beasley, Frank Camp,
Ida Lewis, Ruth Tomlinson, Florence
Robinson, Frank Campeau, John Jex
and A ]. Kenyon.
Laughter succeeding tears is the
keynote Of the enduring success of the
famous New England rural comedy
drama, Uncle Josh Perkins, which is
to be the attraction at the Fargo OPP
erahouse on Aug. 19. Telling a sim
pie, direct story and embellished with
a series of realistic and truthful pic
lures of farm life Uncle Josh Perkins
comes as a potent reminder of the boy
hood OF h passing generation and an
inspiration to the aspiring youth of
today. 1t is like a breath from the
~hayields, and the pathos and humor
of the simple life find their echo in
h heart Of every auditor. Uncle
Josh Perkins comes, after an absence
OF several years, with new scenery and
effects, an exceptionally capable cast
of specially selected players, and an Of
fering of high class speciaIties to af-
ford a pleasant contrast to the spir-
tied action Of the drama. /,

Food Commissioner Finds
Some Mince Meat Sam
piles Are Not Right.

Few preparations called 'mince
meats are entitled to that classitica-
ton in North Dakota according to the
statements made in the special bullc-
tin just published ny the state pure
food department. This statement is
the result of tests made under the di-
rection of Commissioner T.. +. Ladd
upon 81 samples of such preparations
sold as mincc meat. OF the 81 sam
pies 10 were found to contain none or
less than l per cent of meat; IS with
from ) to 6 per cent. II IA with from
6 to 10 per cent of meat. Seven of
the preparations examined were found
To contain glucose. four containing APP
proNimatcly 10 per G and three
from 40 to 4 per cent.
Taking the stand that the sale of
such preparations under tho label of
mince meat is illegal Commissioner
Ladd says:
are products on the market which
cannot be classcd as mince meats.
either under the official definition as
giNer hN h association of State and
national food and dairy departments,
or as defined by the dictionaries, nor
as is generally understood by tho gem
oral public who have been in the habit
OF producing mincc meats i'm the home.
To state that II product which con-
talns no meat whatever is lmince meat,
without any qualifying statement. is
misleading to say the least. To add
starch or glucose. making the same
largely a constituent of the meat, is
! equally deceptive. The fruit cannot
legitimately he tomatoes. or apple
, skins. or waste material generally dis
cardcd as articles of food, minced,
favored and seasoned SO tina the
average person is not able to detect
the true character of the product even
though he knows he does not relish
the pies made from the same.
"Flour. cormeal or starch. also, are
not ingredients of recognized minca
meats. and their presence should be
declared upon the label. They may
serve two purposes. as filters or as
illiers 70 hold n larger quantity of Wa
ter. In either case to sell tlour or
c"rnmeal or starch and water at the
price of mince meat, that is when the
said starch and water has been added,
is wrong"
The examination which have been
made upon brands sent direct from
the manufacturers will be continued
II then followed by an investigation
of the mince meats found on sale at
the stores in the state.
