Fox Lake, Minn-Farmers of South

The movement Of this scientific

that it is now the rule all over the

MORE ALIENS ADMISSIBLE
immigration Quota Larger by 1000
Than Last Year,

Washington.-The labor department
announces that the number of aliens
admissible during the coming fiscal
year exceeds last years quota. The
present immigration law permits only
three per cent of the number of for
eigners now in the United States to
1mmigrate to this land in any one year,
I1le new alien quota is 57,9O3, which
is some 1000 greater than last year.
The increase, it is explained. is due
to adding the foreign born population
OF Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Rico, to
the base for calculation and the merg.
ing of the Smyrna, Turkish, and Ar.
lnenian territories.
Silesia's quota has been transferred
to Poland, which reduces the number
of possible German immigrants from
6S,039 to 67,607.
The number of aliens admissible
from the principal countries include
Austria, 7,451; Belgium, 1868; Czecho-
slovakia, 14,s57; Germany, G7.eO7;
Italy, 42057; Norway, 1902; Poland,

THIRD MONTH Of
COAL STRIKE
Supply Of Coal Diminishes at the
Rate of Four Million Tons
Weekly.

Washington-The beginning of the
twelfth week of the coal strike finds
$4,000 striking miners more deter.
mined than before, a statement issued
by the United Mine Workers Of Amer.
ica, says. There have been and will
be no breaks in the ranks, the state
ment says. Meantime the supply of
coal in the country is diminishing at
the rate of approximately four million
tons week.
"The week ending June 1O,' it is
stated, 1.-The total coal production was
five million 78 thousand tons and the
geological survey says the production
for last week will be below that figure.
We are consuming about eight million
500 thousand tons a week. For the
same week in 1921 there was produced
nine million 974 thousand tons, and in
the same week of 1920 the total pro.
duction was IL million, 315 thousand.
Apparently the public has not yet
awakened to the true situation in re.
gard to its coal supply. 1t will be i'm
possible for the coal industry to catch
up the production that. has been lost in
the last II weeks, and next winter is
not far off.

Washington Legislation requiring
operation of public terminal grain ele-

commended to Congress by the Fed
eral Trade commission, in report on
terminal grain marketing, which also
urged improved banking facilities for
the movement of grain in the North

commission houses by terminal eleva-
tors, improvement in the methods Of
making up cash quotations and the
elimination or reduction Of so-called
insurance charges levied on country
shippers at Duluth, were among other
communications.
Regarding the practice of "scalping"
cash grain, the commission declared
that "as conducted at Minneapolis" it
has been to large degree at the ex-
pense of the consignment business and
Of the consigners, and recommended
that the employment of the practice by

STATES FINANCIAL AFFAIRS
GIVEN FEDERAL ANALYSIS

The federal department Of commerce
has issued a census report showing the
costs of government for the state OF
North Dakota for the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1921. The total amounted tc
SS,394,3S2, which was Il per capita cost
Of $12.S3. In 1918 the per capita cost
was $7.63, and in 1915, $6.1S, the totals
for these years being $4,S2S,334 and
$3,775,754, respectively. The per capita
costs for 1921 consisted of expenses of
general departments, $955; expenses
Of public service enterprises, $1.33
payments for interest, $0.17; and for
outlays, SITS.
The total revenue receipts in 1921
were $7,4S4,7s5, or $11.44 per capita.
For the fiscal year the per capita ex-
cess Of governmental costs over reve.
nue. receipts was, therefore, $1.39.
Sources Of Revenue.
Property and special taxes constitute
the greater part of the revenue in a
majority Of states. In North Dakota
they represented 3S.6 per cent for 1921,
BIZ per cent for 1918, and 35.7 per
cent for 1915. The increase in the
amount Of property and special taxes
collected was 1871 per cent from 1915
to 1918, and 1913 per cent from 1918
to 1921. The per capita property and
special taxes for the three specified
years were SAIL, $254, and 1922, res
pectively.
Earnings Of general departments, or
compensation for services rendered by
state officials, represented 165 per
cent of the total revenue for 1921,
23.4 per cent for 1915 and 23.O per
cent for 1915.
Business and non-business licenses,
which in previous years included re-
ceipts from liquor licenses, constituted
14.S per cent Of the total revenue for
1921, l2.5 per cent for 1918, and SO
per cent for 1915. Receipts from busi-
ness licenses consist chiefly of taxes
exacted from insurance and other in
corporated companies, while those
from non-business licenses comprise
taxes on motor vehicles and amounts
paid for hunting and fishing privileges.
Indebtedness,
The net Indebtedness (funded and
hoating debt less sinking fund assets)
OF North Dakota is decreasing, being
sO.5l per capita for 1921, 5000 for
1918, 5000 for 1915.
Assessed Valuations and Tax Levies.
IN nearly all states the property SUBJ
9ect to the general property tax varies
IN the reported basis of assessment
though in most instances the law re-
qulres that property be assessed at full
market value. For this reason the best
measure Of cost to the property owner
is the per capita tax levy. The per
capita levy for North Dakota for 1921
was $3.50.
