FIND MUCH USE FOR IVORY
Markets of the World Are Open for
II Today, and the Supply Seems
Undiminished.

If you ask any dealer what ivory
is chiefly used for at the present
day, he will reply at once: Piano
keys"
America imports ivory from the
east coast OF Africa exclusively for
this purpose. Next in volume come
billiard balls, cutlery handles, brush
ware and toilet articles. 1t also en-
ters into the manufacture OF number
less little ornaments and articles OF
general use, such as statuettes, cruci-
fixes, paper cutters, wOrkboX fittings,
toys and Chessmen.
The most valuable Of all is the
"scrivallOe," to which I have referred
as being used in the making of bill
lizard balls, and on an average three
balls of fine quality are got out of a
small tusk. Ivory balls, however.
have now formidable rivals in ben
zoline and other composition m te-
rials, and in regard to quite num-
Der of articles which used TO be fash
toned out of ivory. celluloid and bone
take its place.
There is little waste product from
ivory. A use is found for cuttings,
shavings and scraps left over after
main processes have been completed.
India takes large quantities OF the
rings left after the turning Of bill
lizard balls, and uses them to make
women's bangles and small toys and
models, in which the cunning hand
of the native craftsman eXcels. The
dust is used in polishing and in the
preparation of ivory black and India
ink. and l am told it may also be
utilized as food in the form of ivory
jelly = delicacy of which have no
personal knowledge.
Elephants are carefully preserved
in many districts. If the ancient
quadruped is really destined to fol-
low the mammoth and tho cave bear,
and cease to walk the earth, he is in
no hurry to go. He would be rash
man who would venture to predict
when the last tusker may be expect
ed to vanish from the scene and the
last parcel of animal ivory be deliver
ed at the London docks.-London

Bishop Gambler of Atlanta, apropos
of worldly parsons, said the other
day:
There was a worldly parson of this
type in Philadelphia, a great fox hunt
er, whom a Spruce street Quaker
took in hand.
g Friend said the Quaker, T un-
derstand thee's clever at fox catch
ing
ct have few equals and no SUI
periors at that sport the parson com
placently replied.
Nevertheless, friend said the
Quaker, if I we're a fox I would hide
where thee would never find me-
Where would you hide?' asked
the parson, with a frown
Friend said the Quaker, would
hide in thy study"

Price of = Son.

Professor Allen Hoben Of the Uni
versity of Chicago says that one boy,
reared in babyhood to the age Of eigh-
teen years, costs his parents $4,000,
even if they are Sc poor that they must
live in the slums. Wealthy parents,
he says, pay more. and he adds: "A
son is truly a costly luxury" Yes, ac-
cording to DR.. Hoben's figures, even
the sIum father could in eighteen
years own q line touring automobile
for the sum he expends in rearing
son. And if ne rears six sons-that's
S24,00O-on q salary of S1,000-thats
$4,000 in eighteen years-think Of the
art gems he could buy for his little
cottage. Wonderful what the science
of statistics can put into our heads,
isn't it?

FIGHT MADE ON FARMERS
INSURANCE COMPANIES

Ola line insurance companies,
through their agents in certain dis
tricts, have taken up the fight against
farmers mutual insurance associations.
A farmer in Stark county has written
to S. A. Olsness, state insurance COM
missioner, telling him Of the refusal
Of a local secretary Of a federal farm
loan association, who is also an insur-
ance agent, to lend government money
on property that Is insured with a
farmers mutual company. NJ
Mr.. Oisness declares that this Is IN
just discrimination and he has notified
the st. Paul headquarters Of the fed
eral farm loan board Of the action Of
the agent. He believes it is an at
tempt by the insurance agent to build
up his private business at the expense
of the farmers mutual. The govern
ment, far from frowning on these co
operative companies, encourages them
through its publications.
MutuaE companies, Mr.. Olsness de-
clares, are the best and most economi-
cal form Of insurance in the field. This
Is due. to the fact that their rates
are based on local conditions, and not
adjusted to make up for losses incur
red in other places where different
conditions obtain. -.

FARMER SUGGESTS CURE
FOR MAIL ORDER EVIL.

A farmer In one Of, the south
eastern counties Of the state, writing
to his own county paper, puts in q
few words the answer to the, mail
order problem, Writing Of the bust
ness man, he says they have never
seemed to learn or know that when
the eastern grain thieves and live
stock robbers and creamery grafters
were stealing money from the farmers
they were, in reality, stealing It from
the merchants. AS the men who ad-
vertise against sending away for goods
say: "a dollar sent away from your
home town never comes back Well,
how about the dollars that are stolen
away from your home town every
year? The NAH order houses do a
big business in this state, but I am
thinking they do give us some goods
In return for the money. But the
grain thieves-they take u money
and give Vi nothing In return, unless
It be contributions to the Independent
Voters Association to keep us from
stopping the steal"

A OF T. T. eleven

Mr.. Tenne T. eleven, n of the most
widely known men in Bottineau Coun-
ty, passed away in this city Monday
morning at 1880. Mr.. eleven had been
a sufferer since last fall and his case
had been doubtful for the past week.
Tenne T. eleven was born in Nor
way 40 years ago last Jan. ~. He
came to America at the age of II and
worked at Hillsboro until 1901. He
then moved to Souris and filed on land
near Antler, after which he worked
for the Garden Co. for 10 years, most
Of the time being manager Of the Lam
da store. In 1911 the deceased started
farming and later purchased his IA
ther-in-law's land in Eidsvold town
ship. & :, @5%' '<S&
Mr.. eleven was married in 1906 to
Miss Lizzie Thompson, who with six
children survive him. AS we'll as his
family, Mr.. eleven leaves a mother,
several sisters and brothers to mourn
his loss. IT,.
The deceased was a good man and

PUNISH ASSESSORS WHO
MlSREPRESENT HAIL LAW

If any assessor a be proved to
have stated that the new state hail
insurance fund will not pay damages
to farmers except in case of total loss,
he should be prosecuted says s. A.
Olsness, head Of the state insurance
department. -.
mot only is the state fund more lib
eral than the old line companies" says
Mr.. Olsness, "but It will be cheaper.
In case Of an IS per cent loss by hail,
the state will count that as full loss
and pay accordingly. The man who
loses IS per cent has. lost so much that
he can save scarcely enough to pay
him Every, degree Of loss from 10
per cent up will be recognized by the
State. In the case of loss of less than
10 per cent, the expenses of admin
istration- would be 50 great as to eat
up whatever payments would be
made"

Any Duty, Mr.. HUM

The Boche customs oficer-or rath-
er the former Boche customs officer
at Metz probably will remember one
Of the final declarations" he accepted.
It was from the correspondent Of a
Paris paper, who reached Metz ahead
Of the French troops. The Germans
still were in the town they had held
since 1870, but in view Of the armi-
stice made no attempt to stop the cor
respondent from entering the city.
Writing to his paper Of his expert.
ence the correspondent told how no
one but the customs officer stopped
him, and continued: .
"The officer asked II I had anything
to declare, to which I responded that
what I had to declare was: II

EX-SHERIFF

Prominent Houton Man Says Money

Has Done Me.

money could not buy the good Tan
lac has done me, and I gladly recon-
mend it for what it has done in my
case," said Hon. Archie A. Anderson,
of Houton, ex-sherif Of Harris county,
recently.
Mr.. Anderson needs no introduction
to the people Of Texas, as he is un-
q~uestionably, not only one Of the best
known, but n Of the most popular
hen that ever held public office in
"The Lone Star" state. After serv-
ing as deputy sheriff Of Harris county
for twelve years, MI. Anderson was
elected chief Of police of the city of
Houston. He had occupied this office
only a short time when the sheriff Of
Horris county died. Mr.. Anderson's
friends persuaded him to make the
race for the %unexpired term Of sheriff
to which he was easily elected. He
was honored with reelection seven
different times and served the people
in this important office for fifteen con-
secutive years. Four years ago Mr.
Anderson declined reelection and re-
tired to private life. He cast his lot
among the people Of Houston and is
q large property owner and foremost
citizen of this interesting and pros
porous city.
II was in a rundown condition."
continued Mr.. Anderson, "and had no
appetite at all. I could hardly sleep
at night and never felt like getting
up in the mornings, I was Sc tired.
I had the worst form Of indigestion,
suffered all the time from gas on my
stomach and was continually belching
up undigested food. I had to take my
coffee without sugar, as when I drank
it with sugar, I would just belch for
hours. I would bloat and swell up
like I was poisoned and suffered with
neuralgia pains Of the worst sort and
nothing seemed to help me only in a
temporary way. I just can't tell you
how I did suffer for the past four
years and up to the time I began TAX
ing Tanlac, a few weeks ago.
"When I read the testimonials Of
some who had been relieved Of trou-
bles like mine I just felt like I could
MT make a mistake by taking Tanlac
and it has done even more for me than
I had expected. I began to feel better
after taking my first bottle and have
just now started on my third and I'm
a different man already. I sleep like
a log now and eat just any and every
thing I want without the slightest dis
comfort afterwards. I am glad to en-
dorse Tanlac because it does the work
and I'm, telling all my friends just
what I,m telling you. I never felt bet
ter in my life than I do since taking
Tanlac, I am willing for you to. pub
lish my statement and let every suf-
fering person who may wish, benefit
by my experience with this great med
:icine." s
