NUMBER OF DAIRY COWS
SHOULD BE INCREASED
IN BARNES COUNTY

A campaign is being put on in
North Dakota to increase the number
of dairy cows in the state. Several
counties have already sent represent
tatives to Minnesota or Wisconsin to
purchase animals. For long period
of years dairying has proven more
profitable than wheat raising. The
demand for dairy products is contin-
uously increasing. Very few indi-
viduals consume a sufficient quantity
of dairy products. A number of
farmers in North Dakota and per-
haps in Barnes County do not pro-
duce a sufficient quantity Of milk to
furnish the farm home. During the
last few years dairy products have
been exceptionally high and were the
last to be reduced in price. This fall
number of farmers, who have been
milking a few cows and selling lit
tie cream, told Of the benefit Of such
source Of income and how it helped
to make them break somewhere near
even on a bad crop year.
Good dairy cows that will freshen
this fall can be purchased in Wiscon-
sin at from SIS to $1O0 per head. The
w lSCOllSll I1OlSIelu ASSOCldClOQ nave
arranged with purchasers that they
pay so per cent of the purchase price
and the other so per cent to be paid in
monthly payments.
It would probably be a mighty poor
practice for a large number of farm
ers to purchase one or two dairy cows
each, for the reason that dairy sire
may not be available and that the con-
dition of the buildings, feed, etc.,
would not warrant greater produc-
ton from these cows than might be
produced from the ordinary scrub. It
might be worth the consideration,
however, for two or three men in each
community to purchase car load of
such cows, each farmer, therefore to
have sufficient number to make
oairying part Of his business. He
would not be depending entirely upon
Grain as source of income. Where
ever communities or counties have
rene into the dairy business they have
teen successful and prosperous.
New Salem, N. Dak., is good illus
t-ation as to what the dairy cow has
cone in that community in the semi
arid west. Wisconsin, as a state, can
Re pointed to as an illustration as to
nat dairying meant to the state Of
Wisconsin.

AMERICAN CAMPANILE
BY T. T. MAXEY
@, Western Newspaper Union.

THE records of past ages are
l. authority for the fact that cam
paniles or bell towers became very
common in Italy and especially in
Rome between the eighth and elev-
cnth centuries. Almost everybody has
at some time seen picture of that
famous old one of old st. Marks
Church in Venice.
On the other hand, campaniles are
rarely seen in the United States now
a-days and yet California boasts what
is perhaps the most splendid example
of bell tower on the western hemis-
pierre,
1t is one of the most-pleasing and
graceful architectural structures one
can hope to look upon and Is located In
the grounds Of the University of Cal
ifornia, at Berkeley. The gift Of Mrs.
Safer, it cost about 100000, is 3O2
feet high, approximately sc feet square
and is constructed of California gran
lite, with the exception of the pyramid
ally-shaped top-piece which is Of white
marble.
Within the tower is an immense
clock and a chime Of twelve beautiful
-ly-toned bells. These precious bells
were safely transported through the
submarine-infested waters of the At
lantic, on their Journey from the old
world, during the earlier days Of the
world war.
These bells, also the gift Of Mrs.
Safer. range in weight from 349 to
Ais pounds. The tenor or largest
bell carries the following inscription,
written especially for the purpose BY
Professor Flagg of the university:
1--WE ring, we chime, we toll;
Lend We the silent part,
Some answer in the heart,
Some echo in the SOUL"

WINTER RYE

The state administration, in open
violation of the law, has withheld $45,-
1920 belonging to volunteer fire de-
partments in more than two hundred
towns in the state. and fremen's re-
lief associations in cities with paid
fire departments, and used it for pur-
poses of it's own. :.
The laws of North Dakota (Sectlon
1898, Compiled laws of 1879 provide
that to every town having an organ
lied volunteer fire department OF at
least fifteen members, together with
certain fire fighting equipment, and
which fire department shall be mem
Der of the State Firemen's Associa-
ton, shall be paid two per cent Of the
fire premiums collected for fire in
surance during the year in that par
ticular town. For the first time IN the
thirty-fve years since this law was en-
acted this money has not been turned
over to the fremen, says H: l.. Reade:
secretary of the North Dakota Fire
mems Association and former state
fire marshall. Mr.. Reade was inform
ed in a letter from Deputy Commits
missioner of insurance, A. R. Aslak-
son on April '21 last this money was
paid in by the different insurance COM
panies doing business in the state and
certified and ready for payment.
But the men who are giving their
time free of charge in order to protect
their towns from losses by fire had to
foot their own bills at the state meet
ing and the tournaments this year.
The law says that they must be repre-
sented, if they want their share of the
2 per cent tax; the tax was paid into
the firemen's fund long ago and the
distribution should have been made on
the first of June at the latest. But
the various fire departments have not
received a penny so far.

A MONUMENT TO WASTE.

The United States long has wished for a mer-
chant marine. 1t has the ships but apparently is
far from profitable and well.estabshed enterprise
in the line sought. The mess is the result of the ex-
travagancs and msmanagement that has character
lied every step in building the ships and putting them
into the carrying trade. Representative Theodore e.
Burton of Ohio said the other day. "Al the bunders
waste and extravaganza which have brought bank
ruptcy to men and nations II rolled into one could
not surpass the losses which the shipping board
ana its subsidiaries have brought to the United
States treasury"
In the five years since the shipping board was
created $500 100000 has been expendedson ships
If they were earning money. there would be no
cause for complaint. Possibly is making dol
lar Of profit while hundreds tied up to docks or
rotting at anchor However the gigantic loss which
the government faces is we'll known. 1t will remain
81 unenviable monument to the last administration.
What to do about the situation is the puzzle now
We have now about 1900 ships. Many of them are
worthless but how to dispose of the ones that are
worth while and yet have them used In carrying our
commerce is the enigma to be worked out. In oredr
to stop maintenance loss IT is desirable to have the
ships transferred to private at the earliest
moment How to insure the ships to remain under
the American flag may require subvention and Mr..
Burton seems inclined In that direction.
Having built ships at such cost having had to
stand the waste and extravaganza and incompetence
of those in charge 1t is the business of the govern
ment to save what can be saved, yet to guarantee
that the ships of value go to form an effective
chant marine.
