Odd African Bush Tribe.

The strangest people in the world,
according to Mrs. Harry Kaigh Eus.
tace, who is here on her way to Eng
land and Africa, are the women of a
bush tribe In the Qordonia desert, CEN
tral southwest Africa.
These women, she says, have devel-
oped glands in the back in which they
store water, like tamels. When they
drink great deal Of water, the glands
make them appear deformed. After a
few days in the desert, with little or
no water, their reserve supply is alb
sorbed and they look normal. They
can 20 without water longer than q
camel.
Mrs. .Eustace, whose husband b q
big game hunter, 10 English, and has
spent IL years in Africa shooting big
game with camera and gun. She is
preparing for her ninth expedition,
and is in New York after a visit to
San Francisco.
She says snakes are really af1ec-
tionate when you get to understand
them, and make good pets.

Alfred Founded British Navy.

It was King Alfred the Great who
founded the English navy. Toward
the end of his reign the navy is said
to have consisted Of about 300 vessels,
which were stationed on the east, west,
and south coasts Of the kingdom; and
this system of stationlng squadrons
at different parts Of the coast may be
said to be in force today, though mod
ern naval science has now substituted
destroyers and submarines for the yes
sells Of Alfred's day. With such ships
King Alfred, the founder Of the "blue-
water scnool" Of sailors, secured the
narrow seas so effectually that no in
vader dared approach, and he asserted
such dominion in British waters that
at last no pirate or sea-rover was to
be found in them. 4 further advance
in warship building belongs to the
reign Of Edward III, In the Fourteenth
century. The vessel most used was
called q "cog," word from which we
get our "cogswain," or "coxswain," the
master Of one Of those "cogs"

UNKNOWN PEOPLES OF AFRICA
Race Of Beings Who Are Said 20
Live In the Trees, Among
Those Enumerated.

In part of unknown Africa q race
Of tree beings are said to exist, who
live in the tops of the trees and are
sheltered from enemies by the dense
foliage. These folk, two-toed and
claw-handed, pass from tree to tree
with the ease and activity Of monkeys,
and are Of a particularly ferocious
nature. Then there are dwarfs in
Central Africa which live like wild
animals among the rocks and bushes.
Their projecting Jaws and protrudlng
lips, slender, ill-shaped legs and pro-
truding bellies give them the true ape
Ike appearance. They are singularly
timid and feet at the sight Of stran-
gers.
AS mysterious Is the race of gigan-
tic natives in the unknown deserts
north Of Uaso Nyiro and the Lorian
swamp, East Africa. This strange
race is known by tradition to the ma
tives now inhabiting the land west of
the Juba in the north and the Tana
In the south. Their name appears 70
be "the Maanthinle," and tradition
has it they are Christians, and orig
tnally came from Abyssinia.
Until pestilence and native wars
broke them they are said to have cul-
ttvated large areas, used irrigation to
raise crops, owned camels and lived
In great circular houses, the huge
stones Of which testify to their
strength.

COUNTYAGENT HERE TO

County Agent E. J. Parisek was in
the city Friday afternoon showing
low to sort the potato crop this
yea:.- Mr.. Parisek said that in his
opinion people should be careful in
sorting this years crop of potatoes
and only ship first grade potatoes on
account Of the large .crop which is
expected to be gathered. In this
county he said the crop varied con-
siderably, and in some localities he
expected that the yield would be
about thirty per cent of normal.
Around Cavalier and Crystal he look
ed for eighty to eighty-five per cent
OF crop while around Pembina it
was the lowest, caused by the lack
of rain after the potatoes began to
sorm, the same condition existed as
lar south as Bowesmont, Drayton

Trade With
The Far East
Writer Points Out How 1t May 30
Developed Almost Beyond the
Imagination.

Some people say the Chinese are
90 poor that it will be difficult to in.
crease their trade with us, writes Rob-
ert Dollar in the Nations Business. I
say that opportunities in China are
greater than in any other country, and
I will illustrate how this trade can
be enlarged with a conversation once
had With a Chinese on street in his
Enatvp city. l said to him:
w are going to increase trade
hero V increasing the purchasing pow
Esr of the people," [
"But," said he. ut cannot be done."
At that moment wagon load Of
lumber from my lumber yard came
along; 1t was being pulled by thirteen
men. 1t was in the winter and snow
lay on the ground, but those men
were all barefooted. I was paying
them eight cents day. l said:
You take those thirteen men of
that wagon, put horse there with
one man to drive and put the other
twelve men into factory and you will
increase their purchasing power. They
will buy more and develop the COM
merce Of your country"
I asked him how many persons in
China were going barefooted, and he
replied that there must be 1OO,OOO,OO0
anyway, If not more. told him that
they were going barefooted from ne
cessity and not from choice and that
II they could earn more they would
not go barefooted. Each ,one of them
wanted to buy pair of shoes and
stockings. Maybe shoe manufacture
er will read this. What would it mean
to him to supply 10O,Oo0,0OO people?
And bear in mind that shoes are
not the only necessities that these
1OO.OOO,OOO people are doing without
for the simple reason that they have
been too poor to buy.

Wonderful progress has been made
during recent times with regard to
tho treatment of lepers in this neigh

housed at the Chiengmai leper asylum,
which was established with the joint
aid Of the Siamese government and
the mission to lepers some thirteen
years ago.
This asylum is run on the lines Of
Z Siamese village, with a village head
man chosen by the lepers themselves.
The leper has been made to think that
he is still useful citizen Of the state,
and not a social outcast as hereto
fore. They work under their head
man, look after the roads, and attend
to the clearing Of the jungles.
There are two schools within the
settlement for children of the lepers
and the attendance is good, despite
the fact that most of the pupils suf-
fer from the terrible disease. The
plague-stricken boys and girls, with
their nerveless, deformed fingers, work

From this showing Penabina coun-
ty almost equaled the sheep and wool
production of these other five Red
River Valley counties situated in the
Bread Basket of the World" rather
an excellent showing for a county
ranking highsin wheat and grain pro-
duction.
According to available statistics
for the year 1921 over 12 thousand
sheep were shorn in the county, pro-
ducing wool clip of about 100 thous-
and pounds.
Of the farmers reporting sheep as
of April 1st, 1922, there has been an
increase of pure bred sheep since
1921 from 80 head to 252 head.
942 farmers reported sheep on
their farms forthe year 1922, the
county having approximately 18 hun
dred farmers, the result being that
there are sheep on more than one-half
the farms of the county. Sheep are
reported from each of the "a assess
ment districts. Drayton township
reports the largest average flock to
the farm. One farmer out of every
three having sheep. The average
size flock for the township is 26O
head. Ahra and Thingvalla town.
ships with approximately 70 farmers
to the township report two farmers
out of every three as having flock
of sheep. In Beaulieu, Drayton,
Hamilton, Toilette, Lincoln, Lodema
and Park townships, one farmer in
every three reports sheep on his
farm
The estimated value of the sheep
in Pembina county as of April 1st,
1922, was so thousand dollars.
Pembina county ranks second in
state, according to 1920 federal CEN
sus in goats, Mcintosh county first
with 461, Pembina rounty second
with 1O1. Only 1850 goats reported
in state. These two counties had
about half of such live stock.
Will Pembina county maintain such
sheep record for the next ten
years?

Pembina County is Banner
Sheep County of North
Dakota

What has been the general trend
of the sheep industry of Pembina
county for the past ten years?
Answered by VIM. w. Felson, coun-
ty auditor, Cavalier, North Dakota,
who has given considerable study to
the live stock problem farming in
general in Penlbina county of con-
siderable period of time.
Pembina county constitutes only
about one and two-tenths percent of
land area of North Dakota. If the
Sd counties of the state and equal
land area, each would have approx
mately $40 thousand acres, Fe1nbina
county is short over 100 thousand
acres of this mark. With a land
area of little better than one per-
cent of the state, the county had,
according to the federal census Of
1920 approximately seven and half
percent Of the sheep of North Da-
kota.
Its average has been 1.,5OO per
year for the past ten years. For
each of the years 1917, 1918, 1919
and 1920 the average per year in
the county exceeded II thousand head.
The lowest mark reached since 1912
was in 1914 when only IA hundred
head were reported the highest mark
reached in the past ten years was in
the year 1920, when the aggregate
sheep Of the county approximated 18
thousand head, as of April 1st.
During the summer of 1920 the
federal census was taken which in
cluded lambs, from which il WAS
shown that 22,445 sheep were listed,
classified as follows:
Lambs under year, 1902.
Ewes year old and over, 16,s39.
Rams year old and over, 454.
Withers year old and over, 250.
According to this, ewes / year old
and over represented rs percent of
the total number.
The value of the 1920 flock was es-
timated at 260 thousand dollars.
AS a comparison with the other
leading sheep counties of the state
for the same year, Stutsman county
with more than twice the area of
Pembina county had the second larg7
est number, or 14,7OO cad, about 63
percent as many sheep as Pembina
county. McHenry county, the third
largest sheep county in the state
for the year 1920 reported 1851
head on a land area approximately
one and three fourths times the size
of Pembina county.
Federal statistics further show that
in 1919 there were 19,2OO sheep
sorn in Pembina county, producing
15S thousand pounds of wool, valued
at approximately 72 thousand dollars.
The other five Red Rirer Valley
cuonties bordering on the Red river
for the same period showed the fol-
lowing sheep production.

Mosquitoes pi.lik. These odor..

Where mosquitoes abound, prepar-
alton combining one ounce Of oil Of

castor oil one ounce, alcohol one ounce,
oil of lavender one ounce. Both prep

relief until the determination Of mos.
quitoes was undertaken. Neither prep
aration should be allowed to get into
