MILLION VOTERS ADDED TO LISTS

AS the result of the sweeping VIC
tory for woman suffrage in New
York State at last weeks election, 1t
is estimated that the State will gain
al least 100000 new voters, 400,-
600 of whom will come from New
York City. The women will be elig-
iblc to vote at any election after
January 1, 1918, when the amend.
mcnt becomes effective.
If the relative number of regis
trants to precinct is maintained in
New York City, 1t Is calculated that
under woman suffrage there will be
an increase Of about 60 per cent in
the election precincts, which means
more costly elections. In 1915 the
|clection expenses in New York wer.
approximately 100000. With the
enfranchisement of women abou.
st,000,000 more will be added to
the costs of each election, according
to many estimates.
Prominent suffragists predicted
that the women would join the old
parties in the State and scoffed az
the suggestion that woman's party
would be formed The election Of the
suffragists over the victory of Tues
day by surprisingly large majority
continues unabated. Buttons bearin 2
the legend 81 Am a Voter" are now
being worn by women throughout
the city.
Unless the Legislature at its ses-
sion next winter takes some action
changing the requirements that
qualify voters, foreign women who
a:e married to aliens may vote after
residence of one year in the State
four months in the county and
thirty days in the election district

The DAIRY INDUSTRY IN NORTH
DAKOTA BECOMING GREAT FACTOR
Increase Of 1873 Per Cent in Number Of Dairy Cows in the
State in Sixteen Years.

Not only has North Dakota moro
dairy cows than ever before, but she
has better dairy cows. The large
number of silos that are built every
year, the large acreage of alfalfa and
clover being planted, the number of
well constructed dairy barns, and tho
interest taken in cooperative testing
associations and breeding circuits, all
point to the improvement of the North
Dakota dairy COW.
However, North Dakota's progress
has not been confined to production,
for her creameries are making more
butter than ever before, showing that
farmers of North Dakota patronize
home industry and that the creamer-
les turn out a high quality product,
on account Of which they are able to
pay the very best prices.
In the year ending June, 1916, there
was produced in the state of North
Dakota approximately twenty-five mil
lion pounds of butter, for which the
farmers Of the state received nearly
six and one-half million dollars.
North Dakota car point with pride
to the wonderful growth Of it's dairy
industries, and it will not be long
before the nation will look to this
state for her butter, as she already
does for bread, for, with it's broad
prairies and fertile valleys, North Da-
kota is destined to become one of the
leading dairy states of the Union.
State Dairy Observation-Disclosures
N. D., Jan. 4, 1917.
The Dickinson press., 1917-01-27
IS. H. Abbott, Assistant Dairy Com
missiOner,)

m%issioner.)
The dairy industry of the state of
North Dakota is one of the greatest
assets hat it has. At present it
ranks third in the industries of the
state, being exceeded only by the
flour and printing industries. It's
growth for the past fifteen years has
been little less than marvellous and
can only be appreciated when we note
that in 1900 North Dakota held thir-
ty-ifth place, with the other states
Of the Union, in number of dairy cows,
while in 1916 North Dakota had crept
up to twenty-irst place.
According to the federal statistics,
North Dakota in 1900 had 1875, 2O3
had enlarged to 259.173, or a 100 per
cent increase, and in 1916 there were
357, JAP, or an increase over 1910 Of
about SO per cent.
This large growth is due to the
fact that the farmers of the state
have awakened to a realization that
dairy or diversified farming is a vital
necessity to their economic progress
in that it is essential that the soil fer.
tility be maintained. They are taking
advantage of the fact that the many
rundown farms back East which may
be bought for a song were ruined by
continuous single cropping, and are
seeing to it that the farms Of this
state will not arrive at the same des-
tiny.
