 Ira Ranke received a letter from Nulato written by a friend who is trapping in that section and who tells him that there are simply no rabbits or ptarmigan in that section of the country where before they had been so plentiful. On account of the lack of game, the lynx which are swarming have begun attacking the foxes and living off them. A letter from Schaefer of Schaefer and Brown in Bethel reports the same peculiar condition in the KuskO- kwim. The ptarmigan have simply disappeared. The rabbits are follow ing suit and those who have depend ed upon them for food are hard pressed. Tn this connection it may be stated as showing that the lynx are closing in on this district. that five skins have been brought to Nome from outlying precincts within the past day or two. One of these skins from tip of tail to snout meas ured close to six feet.

DR.. JAMES NOT NEGLIGENT.

City Veterinarian DR.. James informs
The Forum that he has not the
authority to condemn an animal and
order it shot merely because it is unfit
for service. Neither the state law nor
the city ordinance gives him that right.
He may condemn an animal which has
a contagious disease but no other.
The Forum does not wish to do DR..
James an injustice, and while it did
not directly state that DR.. James had
such authority, the statement being
that 1T should be the duty of the
veterinarian to make an inspection
from time to time," ETC., the inference
may have been gathered that Dr.
James already had such authority.
But if there is no law to that end
there should be one. Other cities have
such q law and horses that are unfit
for service are condemned and put out
of their misery.
However, under present conditions,
DR.. James could not do anything in
the matter and The Forum is glad to
state that he is not negligent of his
duty.

The supply Of second hand cars is

The call for new cars, is just as

consumption. For the eight months

Quips of the Day
THE PASTORS PANTS,

Henry County Republican: Two
pastors wives were visiting together.
One said: II don't know what we
will do-my husband is so discour-
aged. Somehow his people do not care
to hear him preach and our salary is
far behind. My husband feels so blue
that he does not like to visit the peo-
pie and pray with them and so he sits
around at home nearly all the time"
The other sister said: I'VE are get
ting along fine. My husband spends
much of his time visiting and the peo-
pie like to have him kneel and pray
with them in their homes. Our con-
gregations are always good and our
salary is paid up promptly"
While the two good sisters were
talking they were mending trousers.
One was mending her husbands at the
seat the other was mending her hus-
bands trousers at the knees. There's

THE GREAT AUTO DEMAND.

1t is estimated that there will be g.
100000 automobiles in use in the Unit
ed States by midsummer. And this
after allowing 20 per cent for cars
athat will be "scrapped."
4 The development of the automobile
industry is a never ending wonder to
anyone who gives it thought, and deal
iers and manufacturers are beginning
to ponder on the future of the trade.
There are some who believe that this
year marks the high water mark in
Increased production. 1t is a foregone
conclusion that the country cannot
continue to absorb automobiles in the
future as it has in the past. There
must come a time when the great
demand will be practically filled.

ardized and of such value that they
last longer and give better satisfac-

BIG THINGS AHEAD.


g. Big things have been happening in
Fargo this spring-matters Of signifi-
cant import Fargo Is beginning TO see
and know something of what the
future has in store for it.
: Men who have made fortunes in the
northwest, men who know the country
and who have faith in it are turning
to Fargo as an Investment field. This
is the important thing. Money that is
being invested in Fargo is coming from
the men best qualified to judge Of the
future possibilities here. Fargo busi-
ness property is considered one Of the
safest and surest payiny assets that
can be found.
Yesterday The Forum chronicled
news OF two Of the biggest real estate
transactions that have been reported
In some years, which gives evidence of
the foregoing conditions.
= One was the item concerning the
proposed new eight story office build
ing that Is to be erected at the corner
Of Roberts street and Second avenue
north. The other was the information
concerning the new factory and office
building that is to be erected by the
Bristol & Sweet Harness Co.
Z In the first instance the money Is
coming from sources outside the city,
but from men who have made their
capital in this state. In the second in
stance a Fargo wholesale business has
sreached such proportions that 1t is
looking for a larger factory and has
! selected a location off Broadway,
where property Is now in such demand
for retail business. that 1t is almost
profibitive foC wholesale or factory
! purposes.
There have been other big and sig
nificant real estate transactions which
show the trend Of the day in Fargo
and prove that new business districts
will soon be created in what have
heretofore been residence districts.
Following are some of these deals:
A. L. Moody purchased the "Crusoe"
corner. where he will erect the great
permanent home that his future bust
ness will soon demand.
The Northwestern Telephone Co.,
looking for permanent site for it's
future Fargo business. removed far
ther from the center Of the business
district and is now erecting one of
the finest steel and concrete build
ings in the state. on what. but a few
years ago was considered a side street.
off the business district.
The Merchants National Bank. look
ing to their future needs has pur-
chased the Fargo Business college
property at the corner OF Roberts
street and Second avenue north, just
opposite the site on which the new
eight story office building will be
erected. as announced yesterday. The
Merchants bank officials plan to build
their future banking home on that
site.
The Midland Produce Co. pur-
chased site on Front street and is
building a fine large permanent home
for its big central creamery business.
These are but a few of the transac-
tions that might be mentioned, but
they are sufficient to show how the
| business section Of Fargo is expand
ing and reaching out. The foundation
is being laid for the great Fargo which
far sighted business men of keen
Judgment. both in Fargo and out Of
it. have visioned for the near future.

An Ideal Remedy
for Nursing Mothers
COMPOUND Of Simple Laxative
Herbs Safe for Baby
and Mother.

Constipation is q condition that af-
fects the old. young and middle-aged,
ana most people at one time or another
need help in regulating the action of
the bowels. Harsh cathartics and
purgatives should not be employed to
relieve constipation, as their effect is
only temporary while they shock the
system unnecessarily.
A remedy that can be used with per-
fect safety for the tiniest babe and

THE ARMY BILL.

The army bill, which has been
passed by congress and is now before
tho president for his signature, has
been summarized in a comprehensive
manner by Thco. H. Price in finance
and commerce. Mr.. Price finds that
the bill provides a regular peace
army of 100000 men, capable of ex-
pansion to 254,O00 men in time Of
war. The report will be submitted to
both branches Of congress and will
probably be ratified during the pres
ent week.
"The senate system Of organization
is retained as substitute for the house
system which would have recruited a
maximum Of 100000 men. The regu-
lar line of the army under the bill
agreed upon cannot be less than 160,-
900 men and it's maximum strength in
time Of peace will be $4,000 officers
and men
'In this calculation. however. there
are not included 5,723 Philippine
scouts, 6,409 men in the quartermas-
ters corps. 1920 in the medical depart
ment. 1887 in the signal corps and
$3.50 unassigned recruits. a total Of
31.559. These additions to the regular
line Of $4,000 men provide a total
peace army Of 206,559.
THE president Is authorized to re-
cruit the regular army up to maximum
strength without congressional action.
A reserve army is provided for
through the liberalization Of the ma
tional guard according to the provi-
sions Of the house bill. All Of the Off
GERS and men Of the guard must take
an oath Of allegiance to the United
States as we'll as to the respective
states. The national guard at maxi
mum strength will be recruited on the
basis of 800 men to each congressional
district making a total of 425, men.
This force together with the regu-
lar army of 900 war strength would
produce combined defense force of
$4,000 men. The government is given
authority to seize and operate private
plants to manufacture munitions in
time Of need and the president is en-
powered to appoint a board Of five
men to investigate the advisability Of
building government plants for the
of munitions"
