&ask:nston-That insects cause I'm
annual loss to the United s:ates OF
$4,000. 000--the ligura based on the
economic value of human life. is the
statement of DIR. l.. o. Howard. for
mcrly chief entomologist of the agri-
cultural department.. DIR. Howard
further enlarges the loss by sayin,
that splenetic fever, transmitted to
cattle hN insects. known as cattle
tick. brings the total loss TO S357, 000,-
900.
This loss, the learned scientist as.
sarts. ia preventablc both as to hui
man life and cattle.
Using figures, obtained after on
haustive research by w. d. Hunter
Of the bureau of entomology here, Dr,
Howard states that the house tls
alone causes a loss to human life as
a carrier of tuberculosis amounting
to $4,000. 900: typhoid $4,000. 600;
enteritis n diarrhea S35, 900. 900.
The mosquito is charged with a loss
to human life of $780, 600. 900 as 4
carrier Of malaria.
DR.. Howard says he is unprepared
to state just what amount the gov
eminent would have to spend to pre-.
vent this loss, but he is emphatic In
his assertion that the loss is pre-.
ventable.

That a number of legislative mat
tcrs of vital interest to North Dakota
cities will come up for discussion at

Ono of tho subjects to be discussed
will be the a%dvisability of securing
legislation TO allow cities to TAX ovcr

the matter is f%lvurahly voted on by
tho citizens. In the effort to secure
"a municipal slaushtsr house in this
city Il number of legal difficulties we're
encountered and an effort will be
made to secure legislation removing
these.
Another measure that will be advo-
Gated will be d law giving tho city the
power 4" carry on contracts provided
thai the council on opening bids shall
reach the conclusion that to accent
SUCH bids for sewers. water mains. etc,
is against the interests of the city. 1t

ing Address in the City Hall
Last Night.

Representing the Zionist movement,
Nine. Bella Pevsner. the noted Jewish
lecturer. gave a splendid address last
night in the main auditorium of the
city hall. It al q plea for a re-
united Jewish nation where the people
OF that race might work out their
own salvation. In tho movement
which Nine. Pevsner represts there
are various departments and last even
ing the speaer devoted most Of her
time to the arts and crafts school.
She said that while there is much OF
the undesirable among the Jews, thete
IS every reason why conditions should
be many fold worse. The Jews have
been ~persecuted, scoffed at, ridiculed
and despised. But despite these handi-
caps they have shown their ability to
stand high as a race in proficiency
in the fine arts.

of the many threats which have been
made upon the lives of the widely
known banker and his wife unless
they cease spending small fortunes on
their magnificent dances and dinners.
Mrs. Stotesbury, who is socially very
ambitious, not long ago conceived the
idea of giving a series of entertain.
ments that would eclipse anything
aver before attempted in Philadelphia.
She has given two of them. After
the first. reports were published In
this city and elsewhere to the effect
that the Stotesburys had spent a half
million dollars for the elaborate func-

UNEXPECTED DIVORCE ACTION
News Received Of Divorce Of Attorney

Mutual Consent.

News Of the divorce by mutual con-
sent OF Attorney and Mrs. Bardi G..
S%kulason. former we'll known resi-
dents of Grand Forks, will be received
with surprise by Grand Forks friends.
The divorce action was started some
months ago by Mr.. skulason and pro-
|vides that he shall have the custody
OF the two children. a hoy and girl.
Financial provision is also made for
Mrs. Skulason who has returned to
the home of her parents i'll Virginia.
In view Of the fact that the family
moved to Portland. Ore. in order that
Mrs. Skulason might have the benefit
of that climate. the announcement of
the divorce comes absolutely unexpect-
ed. Soon after the arrival of the FAM
lily in Portland. friends here learned
that the climate was having the desir>
ed affect on Mrs. Skulason's health
and it is understood that she is at the
present time enjoying excellent health:
No reasons for the divorce are known
by friends in this city.

than Capt. Amandsen, From 1897 to
1899 he was in the Antarctic as mate
Of the 'Belgica,' the ship Of the De
Gerlarche expedition which brought
back from the extreme South scientific
collections Of unique yome. In 1901
and 1902 he was engaged IN inyesti-
eating Ice navigation and In making
deep water observations around Spitz
bergen and Greenland, On the 18th of
June, 1868, he left Christiana in the
little sloop Gjoa to attempt the north
west passage and incidentally to re-
locate the North Magnetic Pole
Amundsen first proceeded to King
William Land where two years were
spent in very careful magnetic and
meteorological observations and trips
made to the North Magnetic Pole
which was successfully "rediscover-
ed" Then he worked his way through
tie bering strait and on the both Of
August, s6f reached the Pacific ocean
being the first man to sail from the
Atlantic ocean around the north coast
Of America OF his brilliant work at
the South Pole 1t is not necessary to
speak. Throughout his entire career
Capt Amundsen has enjoyed the cor
dial support and complete confidence
Of his fellow countrymen and he has
received from the Norwegian people

described as more than generous when

wealthy country are taken into consid

Kinds Of Broom Corn Smut.

There are in this country two we'll
known smuts OF broom corn: rrhe
grain, or kernel. smut, and the head
smut.
The smuts are among the most de-
structive enemies Of sorghums. II
may be that the actual loss from smut
IN these highly important crops Is not
ct present as serious as that sustain
ed by oats and wheat, but 1t Is never
theless quite considerable and is Ger
tainly serious IN some localities The
chief danger from these smuts is the
probability Of their rapid spresd il
proper precautions are not taken to
hold them in check. The area where
sorghum crops are grown is being rap
idly extended. and with this extension
the smuts may easily be distributed
over new areas. BY using simple pre-
cautions at the present time. farmers
may avoid much disappointment and
loss in the future. The losses caused
BY smuts OF oats. barley and wheat
throughout the Unked States ought to
prove sufficient warning to the farm.
