LOBBY FILLED
WHEN DRY BILL
GIVEN READING
Representatives in Seats, How.
ever, When Vote Is Taken;
'. Bill Passes
LEGION BILL is PASSED

. There was a reminder of old days
in the house of representatives yester-
day afternoon, when the V0lstead COM
panion bill was up.
By the time the bill was read and
was ready for a vote there were many
vacant seats over the entire house.
Rep. Del Patterson moved for call
Of the house. but suggestion that the
members in the lobbies be notified pre-
vailed, and nearly all were in their
seats when the roll was called.
The bill designed to bring the bin
in conformity with the eighteenth
amendment and the Volstead act was
amended slightly and carries heavy
penalties against liquor viOlators. The
vote was 100 for to II against with 2
absent. Those voting against were
Representatives Kamrath, Kelly,
Kopp, Nagel, Nathan, DISCARD, Pres
zler, Slominski,, Strain, Yeater, Elmer,
with Brady and Mcdowell not present.
As Ness Sees It.
Representative Ness said he would
vote for the bill although he thought
watermelOns should be included az
scientists have told him that water
melons contained more than one-half
of one per cent kick and that when
they stand they have a harder "kick," i"
but he would vote for the bill anyway.
Some members who opposed the bill
favor prohibition but thought the bill
opened the way for too drastic action
by enforcement officers against per-
sons who might have liquor in their
homes. The bill has the emergency
clause.
American Legion Day. a f..
The day might have been called
merican Legion day in the house. A
concurrent resolution memorializing
Congress to pass bonus bill on the
Legion four-fold plan was adopted.
The house passed by vote of 109 to
2 the bill making Armistice Day, Nov,
II, legal holiday. A bill was intro
duced, bearing the names Of several
representatives who are members Jf
the Legion, providing for an increase
in the state bonus levy to one mill
and providing a straight $25 a-month.
in-service bonus without restrictions.
The Legion men hope to see all bonus
claims paid by 1924.
After Representative Bauer's bill
permitting county commissioners to
appoint county brand inspectors had
been debated and at length it was re-
ferred back to committee because OF
minor objections. Representatives from
western counties, who declared that
cattle rustling was being carried out
on a large scale, were particularly
strong for it.

DR.. J. H. Worst Tells of Plans
to Induce Scandinavians
to Come Here
TO SHOW THEM MOVIES

There is strong probability of
large Scandinavian immigration into
North Dakota, in the opinion Of DR..
J. II. Worst, of the immigration de-
partment.
1T is reported that about $4,000
4 Scandinavians, men and women, may
be expected in the northwest this
year and it is the intention of the
Department Of immigration to do
everything in its power to induce this
splendid class of immigrants to come
to this state,' says DR.. Worst. I'VE
are planning to have a representative
of the department make a tour Of Nor
way and Sweden, equipped with mo-
ton pictures and plentifully supplied
with bulletins and other material
which will inform the peoples Of those
countries about present conditions in
North Dakota.
Good People.
"North Dakota people are well
acquainted with the kind of immi-
grants who may be expected to come
from the Scandinavian Peninsula. We
know that they are generally familiar
with agriculture and that they make
excellent farm laborers and high
grade thrifty farmers. We are in
formed that many of those who have
come from the Scandinavian countries
will bring some capital with them, but
whether they have money or whether
they come with bare hands they are
needed and will be welcomed. North
Dakota could use thousands of real
workers such as these, both men and
women, upon our farms and in our
towns, and we know that when they
come they will be an immediate asset
to the community in which they set
tie and to the state.
1.-THE department will keep these
retrospective Scandinavian immi-
grants informed as to the opportuni-
ties here and lay especial stress upon
the fact that any young man who is
willing to work and save his money
will find plenty of opportunity to make
sufficient money so that in short
time he can make payment down on
a farm Of his own and soon become a
landed proprietor himself.
NORWAY and Sweden have already
done a great deal toward the up-build-
ing of North Dakota by furnishing
thousands upon thousands of sturdy
thrifty, intelligent and progressive
people, all of whom have become pros
porous and dependable citizens. On
that account this state holds out un-
usual inducement to the prospective
emmigrant in Norway or Sweden. We
can show them that they will find an
environment that will be congenial,
not only from the fact that we have a
climate and living conditions much
similar to the healthy, invigorating
conditions of the Scandinavian PENN
sula, but also from the fact that here
they will be among people of their
own kind.

Install System.

IuStAA Oy SltDs
Mr.. Blakemore said the Equitable
Audit company was engaged in the
summer to install the system neces-
sary for the office and that the men
got there as quickly as they could.
They are still working in the office.
F.. w. Cathro, director general Of
the Bank of North Dakota, when asked
how he viewed the audit report, said
that he had not made an analysis of it.
but that he had in his office copy
of the summary.
Mr.. Cathro pointed out that the ac-
c0untants had spoken of but two de-
ficiencies in the record, except fo:
minor charges made as they made the
examination. One of these was an
item of about $4,000 for stationery.
supplies, etc, which Mr.. Cathro said.
the auditors reported should have been
carried as an asset. In not carrying
it as an asset, he said, the bank had
simply reduced the showing it could
make on profits that much. 1t was
merely question of bookkeeping as to
the time it should be changed from
assets to expense, he said.
Outside Deposits.
Regarding the several hundred thou
sand dollars in closed banks he said
that some persons might censure them
for having this money there, but that
they were banks that the Bank Of
North Dakota was to aid, and that
they were in good shape until the drop
in prices. The bank probably would
have been severely censured if it had
deserted such institution, he said, and
pointed to the law guaranteeing bank
deposits.
Referring to money deposited out
side the state he said that perhaps the
amount should have been larger, as
it would have been available in the
present situation, but that there had
been criticism of having any money
deposited outside the state.
Record OF Deposits.
He pointed to record Of deposits
outside the state, pointing out that the
deposits outside the state increased
and decreased as the amount of de-
posits in the bank increased or de-
creased. The record showed that tn,
highest amount deposited outside the
state was something over $10,0oO,000
and that it was down to about $d32,0pl
recently.
1t was not possible to reach anyone
in the city today to speak for the mil

IN. f. A. Staff Specially

Washington, Jan. 27.-"Tell this to
any ,bachelor--or any selfish childless
couple: there's nothing like house
full OF children to make life really
worth while" g. go.
The authority-America's champion
bachelor daddy, Rear Admiral Newton
A. McCully, U. S. N. He is the old
seadog who has adopted seven Rus.
sian children and is bringing them up
according to some novel notions.
One Of these notions is that it's cas-
ier to rear a large family than Il
small one!
How?
BY system.
"You know" says the admiral, "if
I'd adopted only one or two I'd have
had to have Il nurse or maid with
them all the time. But with seven they
amuse themselves, look after them
selves, play together, and aren't bit
of trouble"
4 How II Happened.
How'd you ever come to adopt such
a family?" the admiral was asked in
his fine old house at 1921 street. It's
CHEEKY place; big windows, bright
rugs; no pipe racks or cellarets but
toy locomotives and doll carriages
1--we always loved children" an
swered this bachelor seadog diplomat,
who brought the youngsters with him
when he recently returned from serv-
ing as Uncle Sans naval representa-
tive with the Russian commission at
Sebastopol.
II love the Russian people, too.
"Now' I'm SO and in the navy I've
managed to save some money. So I
decided to spend some of it this way.
I'd rather planned to adopt five, but
when | was leaving just had to take
seven"
The Bachelors System.
Admiral McCully's house is us busy
d beehive as is a battleship, but
everything is just as ship-shape.
He has put the navy system in the
house.
Each of the seven has his or her
job" says the admiral, "and each one
is proud of doing it WE'LL" Then he
enumerated them:
Touitchka, 9, plays all day.
Fcodor, 4, and Nitrotchka, S, are as
sistant maids; they answer the door
bell put the toys away after games
are over, and help keep things tidy.
Anastasia, 10, is assistant nurse.
Nina, 10R, is assistant to the adj
mirals niece, who gives the children
an hours instruction in English every
afternoon.
Lindmila, II, is assistant cook.
NicOlai, IL, is furnace and general
utility man. .s. ...
Certain hours for work, certain
hours for study, certain hours for
play. 4s.
. The Hardest Part.
The hardest part of the admiral's 5
job is this. .a
II must go to sea again. I'm Just
on leave now, and must report for
duty Feb /. But in the meantime
I'm getting everything fixed so that
all will be we'll in my absence.
Little Feodor and Nitrotchka romp-
ed in to call the admiral to dinner.
But now" he laughed, rising, 'Iil
always have a real home to come to
when I make the home port"

TELLS HOW TO
CARE FOR INFECTED TREES

c. o. Weiss, horticultural inspect
or for this district, today issued for
Lynden farmers the following in
formation about tree disease:
Infections on fruit and branches
start in the fall during the rainy
spell. To clean up a badly attacked
orchard, one application of Burgundy
Mixture should be given in August
or early September, followed by Bor-
deaux Immediately after picking
time. When well under control a
single thorough spraying just after
picking season will often be suffl-
Gent to keep the disease within
bounds. Use Bordeaux Mixture at the
rate of $3.50.
At meeting in Hood River this
year they explained that it may be
possible to control Anthracnose with
a predominant spray of Bordeaux and
oil emulsion, but this will have to
be worked out further before definite
statements can be made. In their
experimental plots the unsprayed
trees showed twenty seven new in
fections while the sprayed trees had
only three new infections. The idea
Is to have the copper crystals stick
to the limbs throughout the season.
