Are Circulated.

Chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 3.-Ightning
like breaks and startling bulge, COW
ering an extraordinary range of nine
and fourth cents demoralized the
wheat market today and finally left
prices unstrung at four and three.
eights to five and three-fourths un-
der last night.
Wild Rumors Of Peace.
In a selling panic at the outset May
wheat wheat fell eight and fourth.
to $156A, then shot skward to $1.56,
a new high record for the war season.
Wild rumors of immediate probable
opening Of the Dardanelles, and Of the
beginning of negotiations for peace
chiefly caused the collapse of wheat
at the start. Stoppage of the export
for the subsequent depression.

DELEGATION FROM SOUTH
ST. PAUL RECEIVED BY
GOVERNAR HANNA.
CONFER WITH State OFFICERS

The delegation from the South st.
Paul Livestock exchange, consisting
of N. P. Rogers, president; c. II.
WOOD, and J. G. Gibbons, which Is In
augurating' raise more livestock
campaign, visited the state capital
tuesday afternoon and were received
by Governor Hanna, who expressed
much interest in the movement. The
governor was especially pleased with
the idea of the exchange cooperating
with the North Dakota officials in
their efforts to convince the produc-
ers of the profit in livestock properly
handled from the beginning through
to the eventual sale, and also in Sc
curing the utmost effectiveness in
combating animal diseases through
preventing the tringing into the state
OF any affected stock and in discour-
aging every attempt to speculate IN
stock that is the least bit doubtful as
to health. He congratulated the i've
stock men on inviing the committee
from North Dakota, Minnesota and
South Dakota to visit the South st.
Paul stockyards aid study the entire
subject of proper marketing.
The livestock men then conferred
with Commissioner of Agriculture
Robert F. Flint, who not only assured
them of every possible aid in their
work, but took the occasion to make
public for the first time plan ne

products of mixed farming.
Stockgrower Permanent Settler.
He outlined the reason why those
who raise livestock are very desira-I
ble settlers, as they do not move
about from place to place, as one crop
farmers are apt to do, but remain to
build uD prosperous and coltented
state. He showed how livestock grow

build suitable structures for their
stock and give it sufficient time to
develop profitable returns, thus iaen
tifying the stocksrowing With the
state permanently aid yielding him
a revenue that will enable him to en-
joy all the substantial advantages OF
modern life
Then he gave out TIE plan he has
:matured for stimulating the farmers
to their best efforts. He has con-.
municated with every county in the|
state, securing the names OF farm
ers who have made success in other
lines except grain. The information
was supplied by the county auditors.
The lines of production wer cattic,
hogs, sheap, horses, poultry, dairying,
mixed farming. Then he wrote to the
farmers whose names he had received
and from them has gathered an i'm
mense amount of valuable material
in the form of statements from them
as otheir experiences and systems.
He originally intended to furnish this
matter to local papers in sections
where these successful farmers live. |
in order to furnish their neighbors
with an. incentive to similar efforts.

LATHRoP
COMMITTEE
NEAR DONE
ALL EDUCATIONAL INsTITU-
Tl0NS AND NEARLY ALL
OFFICES INVESTIGATED.
HALF MILLION DOLLAR CUT
President Smith of the Forestry
School Makes Favorable
Impression.

The special joint committee acting
under the Lathrop resolution has tln-
ished its work with the various edu-
cational institutions of the state and
this morning will commence to draw
up summary, cutting onl all items
deemed by the committee to be un-
necessary at this time and leaving
the absolutely necessary items only.
Fred w. Smith, state forester and
president of the State School OF For
estry at Bottineau, was the last edu-
Gator to appear before the commit
tee. Mr.. Smith made a voluntary
contribution with a smile on his
face,' as one member of the commit
tee put it. The forestry school bud
Get will be cut but the committee
will probably recommend the pur-
chase of 100 acres more of land for
the school, to be used in the. further
extension Of the work of free tree dis
tribution to the land owners of the
state.
School Worth While.
1T is worth while to continue the
work of this school and to enlarge it,,
said one member of the committee
yesterday and all of the members
seemed to be agreed t. this. The
committee was pleased with the show
ing made in the last two years by
President Smith and was also very
much pleased with the work done in
tha tree line.
Comm erciaI Work Cut.
The commercial work which which
has Deen done in the school has been
cut down to the minimum in the last
two years and it is the policy of the
administration to ultimately elimin-
ate it altogether. Less than seven
per cent of the, total enrolment Of
1'95 students are taking commercial
subjects now. #s,2s :.gs
President Smith put up strong
plea for thepurcnase Of additional,
land to properly meet the great de,
mand there is for treas in the state.
The school will have for distribution
next spring over $4,000 seeding
trees and cuttings and these will be
distributed in 81 of the 50 counties
of the state. .,. -' ..
The cost per pupil, as computed by
the joint committee, at the forestry
school was shown to be less than $llG
outside the expense of the forestry
field department. The cost per pupil
at the agricultural college, computed
on the same oasis was shown to be
$297.25.
Hall. Million Cut.
1t is expected that when the sum-
mary of the budgets of the various
educational institutions is drawn up
and ready to present to the legisla-
ture there will have been made a cut
Of at least $500,000

food crisis.
A minimum of 800 litres of milk a
day is necessary for the care of Only
the babies under year old, she says,

quantity of good milk, as cattle are

TO SAVE BILL

ers Make Every Effort to Break
Down Opposition.

Washington, Feb. 3.-The plans OF
the administration democrats to save
the government ship purchase bill
went astray today in the senate, but
champions of the measure had not
abandoned hope of success in the ef'
fort to recommit the bill tomorrow
with definite instructions for it,

Gratis fatty refused to accept the con-
cesslOns of the majority as agreed
upon in secret caucus last night. The
majority leaders discovered early
they could not muster enough votes
to defeat the coalition of republicans
and insurgent democrats. Party lead
ers determined to hold off the vote,
and agreed to castigate openly the
Seven revulting democrats.
Stone Is Heard.
Senator Stone was selected for this
task and delivered long speech Oh
the floor Of the senate, bitter y ar
raigning the "racreant democrats who
had endeayored to unhOrse their par
ty.' He particularly attacked Sen
aror Clarke Of Arkansas, whom he
described as the leader of the revolt,
and Camden of kentucy, also. Sem
ator Stone declared they entered Sc
crat agreement with the rpuolicans
and chargd them with having violated
the caucus pledge. This was denied
by Senator Camden, in explaining the
warning given that he is not bound to
any action deprlving him of vote
against the bill.
To Stand Pat
While the democrats declared SUIT
ticient votes can be mustered tomor-
row, the republicans insist the bill
cahnot reach vote at this session.
Should the effort to amend the bill
and return it within as hours succeed.
they declare, the republican attack
can be resumed and kept up until the
measure is either withdraw or killed
by the adjournment to March 4.
