FORD RETAIL SALES

in the United States alone surpassed
the 1920 retail sales record by 104 ,213

The Ford Company says the outlook
for 1922 is decidedly optimistic. In
fact, concrete evidences already exist
in that car and truck retail sales for
December 1921 exceeded December
1920 sales by almost 25 per cent and
Fordson tractor retail sales Tor the
same periods show an increase OF over
100 per cent for December 1922, as
well as an increase over the total trac-
tor sales for the month Of November.

COL 4. BLOOM
ANSWERS IVA CHARGE

Charges have been made that the
North Dakota Came and Fish Com
mission, under the Frazier Admins
tration, squardered the public funds to
no purpose. Col. John Fl. Bloom, Game
and Fish Commission for North
Dakota, gave the following interview
in reply to the charg 4. sf'ss B
ss 81 " A. papers state that the re-
Hceipts Of the Came and Fish depart
n1ent we're $83 3,313.58, and the dis
sburs senents $59, ,788. ..25, I am neither
affirming nor denying the correctness
of The figures, presumably they are
correct. = when the Frazier Ad-
5fIiini stration came into power there
was not a dollar worth Of property to
show for all the expend itures which
had been made during the eight years
previous. Practically all the money
derived from the sale of licenses had
been expenied in hiring game Wardens
and the salaries and expenses Of mem
3bers Of the Board. The first year I
was a member of the Board asseetion
of land was purchased south Of Man
dan for game farm and approxirn-
sately SIS 100000 in improvements was
put on it. The next year another
tract was purchased near Bottineau
and another $5,000.0O worth of I'M
provements put thereon. The next
year land was leased at Grafton, and
improvements made for the carrying
on Of a game farm. Last year a tract
of land was purchased: at Spiritwood
Lake for the erection Of a fish hatch
cry which is planned to complete
early this year. Another tract COM
prising 1900 acres was purchased near
Dawson, said by sportsmen to be one
of the best refugees for wild. game in
the United States A tract of land
was also purchased at Fish Lake in
water rights in connection with the
operation of the fish hatchery. do
not think any exaggeration TO-, say
that the state now has more than $780,
O00.0O worth of real property, paid
for by the Game and Fish Board. AS
q result of the establishment of the
game farms there are now 120, 600
Chinese pheasants in the state. These
pheasants cannot be purchased in the
open market for less than $3.50 each
and are reasonably worth $500, 10000
the state has now that it did not have
before the Frazier Administration
took charge. '.4 4. i sssSs ..s .l.s,
The funds for the Game and Fish
Commission come entirely from the
sale Of hunting licenses and not
penny of taxes are collected therefor.
The present Board believes that the
expended should be expended for the
propagation and protection of game,
rather than expended III the manner
it had been prior to the Frazier Ad-.
ninistratio1. And we intend To keep
right ON expending the money as fast
as il becomes available to the end that
within few years there will be pub
lie shooting grounds for the poor as
well as the rich who are grabbing for
their own use the best passes in the
state. We point with pride to the
fact that there is now more game In
the state than there has been in the
past fifteen years. .-s. ':s h

we have accomplished more than
previously had been accomplished

In recommending this lecturer to us
the Lyceun Bureau says: -
His lectures touch life's problems
with q helping hand. They inspire
the young to high endeavor. They
brighten the pathway of the man who
struggles. They are distantly worth
while. Mr.. Long is not an experiment.
He worked his own way through the
steel mills, the preparatory school and
the seminary, to the pastorate Of three
prominent churches in the Hoosier
state. He has been upon the plat
form for number of years and has
won his right 70 place among the
established successes Of the Lyceum. "
His lectures have been called rich
in illustration filled with humor,
dramatic descriptions which gripped
the audience. Perhaps no number on
our courses during several seasons
was as much uraised locally as was
that by Montayille Flowers. 1t is .

THINGS You SHOULD KNOW

Exercise for the gifts and especially
the. old sows is necessary if large
litters of strong, healthy pigs are to
be expected. In many cases the ex-
ercise must be made compulsory. In
winter, where possible, have the bed
of the brood sow quite a distance from
the feeding and drinking places There
is no factor, so necessary to the well
fare of the brood sow and her future
litter. as an abundance of exercise.
Water the sows at least twice daily,
with water warmed to take off the
chill. z as ..jtr.< .s.. a.
