Briggs left Thursday afternoon on No.
a. for Delevan, where Mrs. Briggs and
the girls have been making their home
since leaving Valley City about six
years ago. A letter was received by

The widest extravaganza on the part
Of the executive branch Of the state
government would scarcely be discern.
able in the average mans tax bills.
Indeed, If the entire state government
should run amuck, increasing expendi.
lures by a wide margin, it would
scarcely be discernable in the average
mans bill, since the state govern.
ment expends in the neighborhood Of
ten per cent of the tax levied for all
purposes in the state.
The increase in taxes for 1915 sre
not due to any mismanagement or ex.
travagance Of the state government.
The increase is to be found solely in
the local taxing districts and yerv
largely in the school tax and the muni.
cipal tax. The increase even in the
county and township taxes is very
much greater than in the state tax.
If the people Of North Dakota desire
smaller tax bills they must look after

DEATH OF MRS. BOWEN

Litchville Bulletin: The entire com.
munity was deeply shocked and griev.
ed last Sunday to learn Of the sudden
death Of Mrs. Robert Bowen, at the
Dick Flavin home, northwest of town.
Death occurred at lis o'clock Sunday
afternoon after more than two years of
illness from valvular heart trouble.
Part of the winter she spent in hos.
pital at Bismarck where she under
went an operation. Something like a
week ago she and Mr.. Bowen came to
the Flavin home where it was thought
the fresh air and stiffness of country
home would aid her in recuperating.
The remains were taken to Valley
City, where funeral services will be
held Saturday at $3.50 p. M, at the
Congregational church. Rev. Lyon
will off1ciate and the Yeoman home
stead, of which she was a member,
will have charge. A large number
from here are planning on attending
these services. ~
Mrs. Hanna Bowen was born at
Rushford, Mimi, 4S years ago. She
was married to her surviving hus.
band in 1891, and they were plan.
ming to celebrate their silver wed.
ding anniversary next July 3. In 1902
they located at Litchville, where they
conducted the Hotel Bowen, famous
among the travelling public for it's ex.
cellent cuisine and uptodate service.
They remained here until three years
ago, when they removed to their farm
at Ray, where they have since made
their home.
Deceased is survived by her hus-
band, five brothers and four sisters,
viz, Mrs. Alfred Zuger, Bismarck, Mrs.
H. Jones, Valley City, Mrs. T.J. Walk

From the above compilation it will
be seen that the increase in the tax
levy for the state purposes has kept
almost even pace with the increase in
population since statehood. On the
other hand the county, city, school and
total tax has increased much more
rapidly than the population or the
state tax,
That the increase in the North Da.
kota tax burden has not kept pace
with the wealth of the state is clearly
indicated by the phenomenal increase
in bank deposits. While the bank de.
posits are not entirely safe guides as
to the actual wealth of the state owing
to the fact that a considerable per.
centage of original deposits are re-
making at otal somewhat
too large, yet as an indication Of the
growth of the wealth Of the state, no
safer or surer index could be selected.
Not only has the cost Of the state
government increased much less rap.
idly in North Dakota than the cost of
local government, but it is relatively
much less than in neighboring states.
On page 80 Of the last biennial re-
port of the state tax commission, is
to be found a table showing the tax
paid by $1,000 of actual value for sew.
eral states. These statistics which fol.

PASTURE LAND MAKES PROFIT

Jake Eastgate, of Larimore, is a
thorough farmer and most persistent
supporter of pastures in North Dako-
Ia, says Commissioner of Agriculture
and Labor Flint, and also one Of the
few farmers of the state who has re-
liable records of pasture production on
his own farm.
A 40 acre pasture that had produced
grain for 30 years produced so pounds
of beef per acre in 1913; II pounds in
1914, and 80 pounds in 1915, besides
the equivalent of pasturing one horse
for IL months each season. Strange
as the above statement may sound to
those who have thought that they
could not afford to spare any of their
land for pasture, the results secured
by Mr.. Eastgate on the demonstration
plots, which are supervised and check
ed by officials from the Agricultural
college, are quite astounding.
On the four acre plots, which were
different each season, there was made
In 1913, $50 pounds of beef per acre;
in 1914, 101 pounds of beef per acre;
In 1915, 26O pounds of beef per acre.
While it is true that this land had
good tillage prior to being sown to
grass and an application of barnyard
fertilizer, it is also true that the soil
Is of a sandy character such as is CON-
mon along the beach line of Lake Agas-
siz. and therefore the results are not
materially different than those that
might be anticipated throughout the
Red river valley.
Mr.. Eastgate says, II cannot see
why the eastern one-third of the state
can not average as we'll as the above
figures, and the rest of the state
think should do at least from one-third
to one-half as we'll under conditions as
they now exist"
Mr.. Eastgate believes that If little
thought and study of the local condi-
tons, especially the application of
barnyard fertilizer upon the pasture
was given, much larger production
would be secured than under present
conditions, and adds, If North Dakota
does not need grass it is the only agri-
cultural state or section l ever heard
of that does not need it."
When we consider that for every
acre Of titled land in the state there is
over one and one-half acres of arabic
land that is not titled we have better
conception of the importance of the
productive capacity of pasture land.

Fingal Herald: When Carl Onstad
left one of J. E. Gordon's teams stand
ing and stepped into store Saturday
he did not see boy approaching in
little wagon, but the horses did and
made hasty retreat for home with
stoneboat attached to them. The
team ran home without doing any dam
age. A similar incident was narrowly
averted in the forenoon when Rudolph
Koslofsky rushed out Of the Fingal
Meat Market and got hold OF his team
when a boy and wagon passed. The
team was hitched to buggy and
would have done some damage had
they got away.

THE CALL FOR CATTLE

North Dakota Farmer: Long trains
of heifers and cows headed west in.
stead of east, was something seldom
seen in days gone by; but on all the
main lines in Canada, and on all our
own great continental lines into Mon.
tana, Wyoming and western Dakota.
this spring one sees almost as many
cattle headed west as east.
The call for cows, heifers, calves
and bulls with which to start small
ranches, stock farms and to fill up
depleted ranches, was never so great
as 1t is today, and it has but Just be-
gun.
There will be scattered few mis-.
led by the exceptional and general
moisture throughout the great dry
West last year, but all old-timers, and
the at-all-read-up or experienced new.
corners know that last seasons mois-
ture was exceptional, and that general
farming on the great dry plains with
Is inches or less moisture, and some.
times none, cannot be depended upon
unless stock of some kind lends it's
frequently much-needed aid.
1ntercepting few punches of west
bound she stuff lately, we were pleas
ed and little surprised to note the
very good quality Of much of it. The
young bulls and heifers were Of espe-
c1ally encouraging quality. OF course
there were some cows and other STUFF
that never ought to be shipped any
where but to the block or feed yards,
but that is bound to be the case in
nearly all stock movements.
We only hope that prices may be
kept in bounds, and that people will
not lose their heads and pay those
bringing in stock more than they can
ever get out of it.
