Minot and Wolf Point Play This Week

Minot and Wolf Point will play ball
in this city Friday, Saturday and Sun
day. Wolf Point has very strong
team, having beaten the Poplar team
that took two games out of three play
ed with Minot last week and the local
team realize that they will have to be
UP on their toes all the time if they
win the series. The games will at
tract large crowds. The Minot team is
to be strengthened and it is probable
that the Montana boys will find that
they have run up against a good sized
snag.

WORLDS RECORD
BROKEN BY TANLAC


Tanlac has brought q new romance
to the commercial world. II is the
story OF an acceptance and ~apprecia-
ton OF merit never before attained
by a proprietary medicine. Staid
business men to whom the actual
figures OF the production OF Tanlac
have been presented have secuted
them until the proof was shown. The
production Of Tanlac now stands at
the rate OF almost four million bottles
per year The exact figures are 1892
500. The sale Of a million bottles in
the first nine months, which far ex-
ceeded any record yer made by a
proprietary medicine, nov seems in
significant.
OVER 1900 BOTTLES A DAY .
Sales this year bid fair to smash
>all previous records, as the sale for
the first ten weeks Of this year
amounted to over One Million bottles,
an average OF over one hundred thou
sand bottles per week. which is at the
rate Of more than seventeen thousand
bottles per day. 1T seems almost In
credible. but these are actual figures
and such is the record established by
this wonderful medicine.

It is estimated that in 1913 only 42 per cent of the total food consumed in the country was of domestic production During the war some 100000 acres were added permanently to the land under agricultural cultivation which will make the country less dependent upon foreign sources of food supplies than before the war.
 In manufactures a most significant in- crease in out put was effected through standardization and improvement of machinery, The world was searched for the best machinery. New factories were built; old factories were stripped and rc-equipped. The new machinery was automatic or semi automatic, SO that unskllled workers could quickly be taught to handle it. Under govern ment guidance there. was pooling of experience III manufacturing that has been Of great educational value to those directing the production of goods.

 An advance in the financial world has been the amalga1nation of large com mcrcial banks. Whereas in 1914 there were 70 banks ill the United Kingdom, in 1918 the number had been reduced to 57, with assets on an average ot $223,O00,OOO per bank as against only Sl,4lO,OOO per bank i'll the United States. This combining of banking facilities in 10 large units renders the English banker better prepared than ever to assist in the development ot industry and commerce.
