Stock Increases In State.

Grand Forks, Dec. 2.-Nucl1
interest has been aroused OF
the notable increase in stock in
the state and upon investiga-
ton the Press bureau of the
North Dakota Development
League at Grand Forks has
found that real evidence of this
can be found in the records
of Com missioner of Agricul-
ture and Labor Flint.
In 1905, a year of heavy i'm
migration, 500 stock bands were
issued from the commissioner co S
office. BY 1911, several good
crop years had so reduced the
interest in livestock that but
1911 bands were issued. Then
came couple of poor crop
years, and live stock began to
pick up. It reached it's pinacle
for this state in 1916, with a
total of S94 new bands to date.
In November 50 bands were
issued, and if Dece mber holds
up as we'll the total will be $50,
as compared with Sl9 for 1918.
Increased receipts of breedin g
stock are shown by the adrnis
sion of tuberculin tests inl9l5 OF
10, 1862 head, as compared with
1853 in 1911. In 1916. IS, sos
stockers and feeders were ad-
mitted on inspection as against
2, 964 in 1911.
According to Flint, until re-
Gently few people thought OF
coming to North Dakota to
buy pure bred stock. In 1915,
however, there left the state
after being tuberculin tested
2,172 pure bred cattle. In 1911
a total of but 895.
The dairying interest has
kept space with the stock. In
1911, North Dakota had 8;
creameries and 18O cream sta
tions. In 1915 there were 7e
creameries and Al cream sta
tions, indicating a wider diff
fusion Of dairying and closer
concentration of creameries
In 1911, North Dakota reported
1853, 7S7 dairy cows, while ir
1916 there were 221. 1922. Ir
1911 the total receipts for dairy
ing were So, 811,214; this year
they are todate about So, 277, 40.

BIRTH OF A NATION
DREW LARGE CROWD

The crowds that came to
Bottineau on Monday and
Tuesday to see the famous
moving picture, The Birth of
a Nation,' fulfilled all expecta-
tions and three packed houses
witnessed the presentation of
Griffith's film from the famous
novel, The Clans man.
Manager Blades of the Grand
Theatre was assured a packed
house the first night early Sat-
urday afternoon when every
seat in the house was taken
and when the performance
commenced Monday night
many had to be turned away
as not even standing room was
available.
Sixteen people are making
this tour with the film and the
work of the orchestra in inter-
preting the movie was excel
lent. The public was gener-
all we'll pleased with the en-
tertainment, and the MANAGE
1nent of the Grand should be
commended for securing this
attraction for the people of
Bottineau.

VELVACHILDMET
H0RRIBLEDEATH
Instantly Killed By 22-calibre Rifle in
Hands Of Some Small Play
mates.

Velva, Dec. "a terrible
accident has occurred in this
city, resulting in the death OF
little Ellen Wilson, three year
old, only daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Wilson. The child's s
brother Ronald, and Walter
Wasson, both about nine years
old, had just returned from
school. A 22-calibre rifle was
in the shed of the Wilson home
and the buys had taken it
down. The little girl was in
the shed at the time. In some
way the rifle was discharged,
the bullet striking the child in
the side and passing almost
through her body. She died in
about twenty minutes, without
speaking.
AS the boys and little girl
were alone in the shed at the
time of the accident, little is
known of the details of the
tragedy. Both boys tell differ
ent stories, each insisting the
rifle was in the hands of the
other at the time. When the
mother arrived the gun was on
the floor.

by James T.. Boyle.
| Loans are made to farmers

which he means to apply
the loan. If he applies the
money to some other purpose,
the Federal Land Bank, hold
ing the mortgage may declare
the mortgage due and payable
forth with. To keep watch
oyer the borrowers use of
funds, is one of the specia
duties of the secretary treasurl
er of the National Farm Loan
Association. He shall assure
hi nself from time to time that
the loans are applied to the
purpose set forth in the appli-
cation blank. And he shall
forth with report to the district
Land Bank any failure to com
ply with terms of the applica-
ion.
The loans may be used for
the following purposes only:
