of them will not reopen next fall
because teachers are seeking more
lucrative work elsewhere in the

EARLY BREEDING ADVOCATED
Lambs Born In Spring Get One or Two
Months Of Mothers' Milk Before
Fighting Worma

Early breeding, in order that lambs
may be old enough to offer strong re-
-sistance to worms when they are turned
on pasture, Is advocated by the Ne
'braska College Of Agriculture. Ewes
bred In October and November will
lamb in March and April. This will
give the lambs from one to two months
on their mothers milk and on grain be.
fore they have to combat worms. The
principal objection to early lambing ia
the necessity Of having a good barn.
However, the expense and trouble from
early lambing are more than offset by
the ability Of the lambs to survive the
worm season. Extra feeding Of ewes
during the breeding season is urged.
Well-fed ewes are more likely to pro-
duce twins.

Decoying The Ducks

There is . Minneapolis duck hunteE
de luxe who has the most ingenious;
newest, latest and best decoy yet used
according to Art Olson, Holeridge.
Mr.. Olson found the hunter in his
craft in rushes in King Lake near
Litchfield. The hunter had his boat
equipped with cushions, lazy back, ci-
CARS and all the comforts Of home.
Olson parked his craft in the rushes
some distance away.
"Quack, quack, quack," mallard
ducks! There were ducks and ducks
but not one came within range Of o.
sons gun. The birds flew ove the
Minneapolitan's craft as though
drawn like a bear to honey.
"Quack. Quack." Duck hunter de
luxe soon had his limit while Olson
still waited an opportunity to smoke
up his gun barrels.
It was uncanny. according to Mr..
Olson, and finally he padded over to
investigate the charm used by his
fellow hunter.
On the bow Of the magic craft was
perched a small photograph casting
the betraying "quack-quacks" to the
breeze. The hunter had made sphono-
graph records from tame mallards so
that the wild birds could not resist
the calls, perfect in tone and entice-
menr.

ITS POPULATION
Five Per Cent
of Census Figures
Given

WASHlNGION, OcC. Z.-CltleS are
increasing in population seven and a
half times as fast as the rural dis
tricts, the census bureau disclosed in
a compilation of figures covering ap-
proximately e%ighty-fve per cent of
the new census. The figures indicat-
ed that the completed census would
show the majority of the population
to be city jewellers.
For the last ten years, rural growth
was but one-third as great as it was
in the previous decade, but the cities
almost maintained their rate of
growth, getting five new inhabitants
from 1910 to 1920 for each six added
during the preceding ten years. All
population %centers, even the small
country hamlets and towns showed a
greater proportionate increase than
the purely rural districts. The great
est increases, however, were by cities
of ten thousand or more inhabitants.
While the bureau attempts no ex-

Check in Population Growth
Although showing a check in the
rate of population growth for the
country as a whole, the figures in
dictated that the complete census would
place the total number of inhabit-
ants of the continental United Sta
ties at approximately ZOE, 1853, 100, a
gain of 13,785,840, or fifteen per
cent. Cities will absorb practically
all of this increase, it being estimat-
ed that an increase of 12,172, 700
comes from towns of $500 or more
inhabitants, while 1924 GAO or added
to the farms and the small hamlets.
Such a movement of the people
will place the urban population at
approximately 54,796,100. In 1910,
the rural population outstripped that
of the cities by almost even million
people there being 49,34S,S83 in the
country and 1888, 1888 in the cities.
Country Behind the City
"For several census" said the bu-
reau announcements, "the country has
not been growing as rapidly as the
city, but the difference appears to be
greater at this census than ever bu.
fore"
The urban population, the an
nouncement added, increased at a
rate of 25.2 per cent, while that of
the rural districts, including the vii
lagos apd towns under $500 popula-
ton, was 3.4 per cent. For the strict
ly farm territory, the rate was 3.2
per cent and that of the villages was
AZ per cent.
Among the urban centers cities ex-
ceeding $4,000 increased at 1854 per
cent, those of 10000 to $4,000 at 26.7
per cent, and those of $500 to 10000
at 1873 per cent. From 1900 to 1910,
the percentage rate Of increases for
these three classifications of cities
were 1856, 1877 and 27.8, respectively.

mers Of North Dakota.
As reported in this pamphlet the
yield per acre Of wheat varied from
one bushel to II 1-2 bushels per acre,
the average yield being ~ bushels.
The cost of production Of wheat vari-
e dfrom $3.50 per acre to $35.47 per
acre, the average. acre cost being
$19.8S. The lowest cost per bushel
was $1.21 and the highest $14.38, the
average cost per bushel being $2.7t.
These figures are derived from in
formation and records from over $50
farms scattered over the entire state
and are considered representative Of
North Dakota farm practice for the
year 1919. That there is considerable
difference in practice from east to
west in the state is clearly pointed
out, results being s!shown for both
ern and western North Dakota. It
is, believed that practically all farms
of the state fall within the limits Of
the information and that all farms
produced at high or low costs in num-
ericaf proportion to the results given.
