Electric lights, cement sidewalks

ton for its size in the state CONSOLE
dated school, a tow mill-and only two
years old. That's the brief history
of Parshall, N. D.
In November, 1914, the first sale OF
lots was held at ParShall. The fol-
lowing spring active building began,
so that the town is now only little
more than two years old.
Grain Value Over Million
In 1915 over million bushels of
grain were marketed in Parshall, az.
gregating in price over a million and
d half dollars. From the 1916 crop
due to the big flax yield, the revenue
has again gone we'll over that magni-
ticent sum. Five grain elevators
take care of this enormous quantity
of grain. A distinction in Parshalls
elevators lies in the fact that two of
them are owned and wholly controlled
by farmers in the vicinity. The stock
holders number some 300 Parshall
farmers.
That Parshall grain is of high quail.
ity as we'll as big yield is shown in
the report of the federal expert who
was sent to Parshall in 1915. A part
of the report reads: "Parsha!l dis
trict of the reservation had the best
crop in the state"
Has Largest Depot
Parshall has the largest railroad de
pot on the 500 line from Drake, the
division point, to Sanish and is said
to be the most remunerative station
on the 500 west of the Twin Cities.
The Parshall oil station stands 18th
of all the Standard oil stations in the
entire state. Its business surpasses
that of many of the larger cities of
North Dakota and it's proceeds are ell
tirely out of proportion to the popula-
lation of the town and community.
This is due, it is believed, to the re-
markable prosperity of residents of
the section. %

ideal breeding ground. Not infre-
Quently~ drain pipes become clogged
and then tin roofs and cutters afford
an unsuspected breeding place for
thousands of mosquitoes. - :,
Mosquitoes lay, their eggs in stag
nant water. The eggs develops into
the larva, thenninto the pupa or rest
ing stage from which it is Matched
into the full-fledged mosquito. This
evolution takes from 10 to 80 days.
The problem of mosquito prevention
is best solved by filling ponds or
draining, off the water. Another
method is to apply crude oil to the
surface Of the water once a week,
one pint for every 200 square feet.
The oil floats on the top of the water
