MARCH FAILURES
SHOW INCREASE
Number Greater Than Last
Year, But Total Liabilities
Are Less

The report of II. g. Dun & Co. for
March, records 1.464 insolvencies,
against 1870 for the corresponding
month last year; 1892 for 1912, and
LIZA for 1911. The liabilities. how
ever, were smaller this year than
last, being $21,493,2S6, compared with
25.718,25O.
While the March failure returns
disclose a larger number OF insOlv-
encies than In the same month a
year ago." says the report, "the bust
ness mortality In that respect showed
Improvement over both January and
February OF this year, and the same
thing was true in regard 10 the In
debtedness reported"
The quarterly report, however
shows that the losses for January and
February Offset the gain made In
March. There were 1896 insolven.
cies, with liabilities Of $S3,221 ,S26, this
year, compared with 4.458, involving
$76.S32,277 in the first quarter OF
1913. The increase In the number OF
suspensions In contrast with a year
ago extended to each classification
manufacturing trading and other com
merciRl.
Geographically, the New England
states and the western group show
fewer failures than last year. but In
all other sections the number was
greater. The greatest increase In
business mortality was in the central
eastern section. comprising Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Michigan and Wiscon-
sin. Michigan had rs failures, com.
pared with 72 In 1919, but Illinois had
$50 this year, compared with, 2S7 the
year before. There were only slight
changes In the other states. Michi-
gan's liabilities were tho lowest Of al
the states In the group. wisconsin
had one less failure. but her liabili.
ties were twice those Of Michigan.

Long time ago this happened 20 a
hunter VINO went out into the plains
TO Kill ct buffalo; and the way it is put
down here is just the way the story
WAS told to the little boys among the
Indians of the North. when they began
to string their little bows and bind
the halves OF small feathers to the
notchcd ends OF their arrows:
FIRST. II is told how this hunter
NfouGht home from the prairie one Of
the tiniest, youngest buffalo calves he
could find; and when he brought it To
ms tipi, he said to his grandmother:
This one shall call my buno child;
shall teach him to talk with me, so
that he may tell me all about his pco-
pie shall make him hold mp his head.
Now, will YOU fix him something TO
eat SO. that hunters grandmother
went out and gathered drops Of dew
from the tops of the LONG grass TO
warm over the nre for III. bnSraio
chiids drink. and she gathered the ten
uer ups OF the youngest grasses for
the buffalo child to eat: and after the
puHalo child had finished eating and
drinking, the hunters grandmother led
MN to warm corner of tho tipi,
where she had fixed up fine place TO
sleep.
Well. the buffalo child grew strong
ana stronger until the hunter said
ono day that they two would go out
hunting They went away together
into the plain; then the buffalo child
put down his head once more and be-
gan TO crop the rich, tall grass
Now, YOU must show me where the
rest OF your people can be found"
said the hunter: and at that TN. huf
Ialo enid Kicked mp his heels and ran
1ast toward the West. AS the bur-
iaio child ran, the hunter ran: ana
WhSh mo hunter was so tired that lie
was about to drop down, they came to
"A great herd grouping tho tall. rich
grass.
These are my people" cried The
hunaio child, as he ran amongst the
nerd. Then. while tho hunter was rot

| falo child began to talk with tho rest
! or the buffaloS: and before the hunter
could draw back his bowstring, they
came round him with great rush.
Now" said the oldest buffalo of the
herd. we have got hack our grand
child and you with him. He has told
us what your plan is. hut you will not
Kill any more Of u.s." And all the
hunaloa gathered around him in 4 big
circle.
Let me have one chance for my
life"' begged the hunter.
Very we'll" said the leader OF the
herd ana he went off to one side to
think Of some plan to test the hunters
right to live. AS they talked. one said
to do this and another said TO do that;
and at last they all agreed that If the
hunter could pick out the mother of
the buffalo child. he should be allowed
TO go back alive.
OF course, the buffalo child heard
what the buffalo said. and he walked
close TO the hunter and said to him:
Watch what | am going TO don'
Then the buffalo child went 10 a bank
or white clay and rubbed it's nose in
the clay; and when the buffalo child
went among the herd again. he rubbed
his nose against the side of one of the
old bufralos.
Again all the buffalos made a great
circle around the hunter. and the lead
err told the hunter that If he could pick
out the mother of the buffalo child, he
could go back to his people unframed.
All around the circle went the hun
ter. looking at every buffalo. At last
he came to the one. that carried
white clay mark OH her side. He look
ed at the buffalo child. and saw that
II little one twitch his left car Just the
least bit. So the hunter put his hand
on the clay marked buffalo and said:
This Is tho mother of the buffalo
child"
Right" said the old leader of the.
bufalos; and tho hunter went homo
unframed. leaving tho buffalo child
with his people.
