there is also fair sprinkling of ma
tive performers. Brazilians are loyal
to a degree, and in recent years there
has been decided effort to give the
fullest encouragement to home talent.
Although Sac Paulo was founded in
1853, it has grown SO fast and become
so thoroughly modernized that few
architectural signs remain of the
older period. The city stands on sew
eral hills, and it is characteristic OF
the whole place that every building Of
Importance is situated on an emil
nence. This is also the case with the
municipal opera house From what
ever direction it is viewed the struc-
ture makes striking picture. The
large and beautiful public garden in
the center of the city is also one of
the features of the community.
In the immediate vicinity of this
city is building erected in honor of
the event which separated the coun-
try from Portugal in 1922. This indie
pendence building contains what is
thought to be the largest fresco paint
ing in the world, showing Dom Pedro
of Braganza, then regent of Brazil,
surrounded by his generals, proclaim
ing the independence of the new ma
ton.
Not only is the culture idea fore
most in the minds of the people of
Brazil and Argentine, but in all South
American nations the idea is upper
most.
Advantages for Uruguay Women.
Within the last few years there
has been a noticeable interest mani
tested in all that pertains to the adj
vance of woman in Uruguay. The
commission of woman teachers has
been especially active and it was due
to the efforts of this organization that
a member was sent to the United
States, while ago, to study the Amer
lean systems of public instruction. 1t
was as a result of this investigation
that the plan was worked out to estab-
fish the normal training course.
This course is to be both theoreti,
cal and practical 1t is to take up
the work in it's entirety. A graduate
of this normal school will obtain a Ger.

permanent teacher in the department

women which it is purposed to estab

VaIuabIe Pearl

A large pearl found recently in west
ern Australia was reported on as fol
lows by the secretary of the fisheries
department: THE gem was found in
blister in the adductor muscle of a
five-pound mother of pearl shell. The
blister was Ia inch long, / inch wide
and seven-eighths of an inch in height
This blister, on being opened, was
found to contain perfectly round
pearl of 100 grams, being cleaned
down to SO grams. The pearl, al
though marked slightly, is very valu-
able one. and if it can be cleaned to
perfect luster and should retain its
shape, it should realize $4,000

having outstripped Philadelphia in the
last five years, according to the claims
of the people of Argentine In 1910
it was the fourth city of America,
with Philadelphia third. The fifth city
in America is Rio de Janeiro.
When one goes to the dictionary
to define culture, he will find that it
is the application of labor or other
means to improve, correct, train or
refine mans physical or mental con-
dition. The two South American
cities have done more in the last fif-
teen years to improve, correct, train
or refine the people of their cities
than any other cities of the world
Then, going back to the definition, we
must conclude they are cultured
In many respects we look down on
Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro. We
consider the people there in the light
of gamblers and high livers. They
know less than we do about cutting
down the cost of living, for food
prices are higher there than here. The
people ere in debt and their educa-
tional system is different from ours.
We consider our system of education
the best, but they think their system
is more direct. They believe we waste
our time on nonessentials.
The South Americans now are try
ing to get the American university for
one of their cities. They believe the
educational capital should be south of
the equator. Wouldn't Rio make a
fine university town, with its miles of
ocean and bay front, with its hills. its
rows of palms and it's theaters and
fine streets?
Sac PauIo Rivals Rio.
Near to Rio is Sac Paulo, capital
of one of the most prosperous states
in Brazil Sac Paulo makes no de-
NAL of the fact that it aims to rival
Rio de Janeiro itself, both in at
tractiveness and in providing such
high-class entertainment as a cosmo-
politan center is expected to supply.
The municipal opera house is an
institution in which Sac Paulo has
right to take pride. Few opera houses
in the world surpass this magnificent
structure, and in the season the best
talent that money can obtain is
brought to the city for the enjoyment
of this extremely music-loving people.
Opera is something that every Sac
Paulan delights in. Italian and French
companies are regular attractions, and

Nd WAR TAX ON
CANADIAN LANDS
untruthful Reports Circulated by
Interested Parties.

OBTAINING Deighbor at the expense
of the truth does not help those who are
guilty of the practice, and it may be
said that those spreading false re-
norts about Canadian lands, in the
hone that they may secure customers
for their own, will certainly fail of
their purpose. False statements so
maliciously circulated will sooner or
later be disproved. And, as in the
case of the lands o. Western Canada,
the fertility of which is now SO well
known to people of every state in the
United States, the folly of this work
shows an exceeding short sighted
ness on the part of those guilty of the
practice.
The present war has given some Of
these people the opportunity to exer-
else their art, but in doing it they are
only arousing the curiosity of those
who read the statements and trifing
Investigation will only reveal their un-
truthfulness.
A very foolish statement has re-
Gently appeared in a number of pa
pers, reading in part as follows:-
1T is believed that as a result Of the
war tax on land imposed by the Cana
Dakota farmers who went to the Brit
ish Northwest will be compelled to re-
turn to the United States. Informa-
ton has been received that the tax
will amount to about $500 for each
farm of 160 acres, which in the case
OF many of the former residents of the
two Dakotas would practically amount
to confiscation."
To show that the public has doubt
ed, hundreds of inquiries have been
made the Government at Ottawa,
Canada, only TO bring out the most en-
phatic denial A full-fedged lie of this
kind has, of course, only short life,
and will tell in the end against those
who forge it and spread it, but, as a
Winnipeg paper points out, it is most
complimentary to the agricultural pos
sibilities Of Western Canada to find
chat rival farming propositions need
audacious mendacity of this descrip-
ton to help them.
What is the truth? The Saskatche-
wan Government has authorized levy
of $40 per quarter section on unculti-
waited lands owned by non-residents.
The Alberta Government has imposed
a Provincial tax of 10 mills on the as
sessed value of all uncultivated lands.
There are some special applications of
these taxes, but the main provisions
are as above. Those vacant lands
held by non-residents in Western Can.
ada form grave problem. They are
making for poor communities, poor
schools and poor social and economic
conditions generally. BY having them
cultivated the owners as well as the
districts in which they are located
win benefit alike. 1t is for this reason
that the Government has recently
asked the cooperation of the non-resi'
dents. The high price of grain for
some years to come, and the general
splendid character of Western Canada
land will make the question well

HOW ARABIANS TRAIN HORSES
Them With Human Beings Arc
Merely Fables.

So far as we know the Arabian
breeders have no patented system of
training their horses different from
those prevailing among peoples of
similar degree of civilization, the
Breeders Gazette says. Naturally, the
lack of pasture results in young Ara
bian horses being fed considerable
quantity of barley, and so, the story
goes, at least, a not inconsiderable
quantity of the fruit of the date palm,
fresh and dried, by way Of succulence.
The colts are broken usually bare
backed at two or three years old. Their
handling is much like that
of all other horses with perhaps the
difference that as early in life as pos
sible the young apimals are accus.
toned to doing without water for in.
creasing periods of time, in order to
accustom them later on to the scarcity
of liquids in desert journeys.
The ancient stories about the Arab
steed being kissed and bawled over
by the sheiks whole family, kept in
the living tent and foaled on the best
silk rugs are picturesque fables con.
tanning about the same measure of
truth as the one which dates the pedi.
grees of Arabian horses back to the
mares owned in Biblical times by
King Solomon.

No Labor in Eden.

The inhabitants of Eden plainly
lived without toll. They were born to
that leisure for which We strive so
iercely in this work-a-day world. So

sting of the expulsion was the fact
that he had to 60 forth and eat bread
in the sweat of his face. Jehovah did
not enforce this sentence at hard labor
by putting a guard over Adam. Eve
was not placed in charge, nor yet the
willy serpent The offender was mere

was full of trees. The trees had made
1t paradise.
Every tree that was pleasant to the

arose there were the juices of fruits
and palm wine. The spontaneous
products of the garden even supplied

Dougherty Is Doing Good Work.


Chief of Police Dougherty is having
but little trouble with transient labor
ers this year and he is to be COM
mended for the way he has handled
them. Men actually looking for work
have been assisted by the police Off
Gals in getting located, through the
free municipal employment bureau.
Those who were here just to hang
around and cause trouble, or to wait
until after the laborers had earned
their pile, and then taking it away
from them, have been set to work on
the streets and they do not lose any
time in getting out of town when set
free. The results are that many of
the smaller towns are overrun with
this class of worthless fellows, while
Minot is practically free from their
annoyances. While there is more or
less of petty crimes being committed
in Minot, there have been few hold
ups and none of our houses or stores
have been burglarized.

Two Farmers Buy Small Thresher

Thomas Hoover and Barney Briggs,
two prosperous Glenburn farmers,
have invested in small threshing
machine intending to thresh only their
own crops. Mr.. Hoover already owns
two small engines, either one capable
of running the machine. Mr.. Hoo
ver's threshing bill this year would
have run over $500, and Mr.. Briggs
nearly as much. They can keep the
machine busy with four teams, thresh
out their grain at their leisure and get
their fall blowing done. The machine
cost $500 and used properly ought
to last twenty-five years. This seems
a very sensible move.
