By what is known as the four
power treaty, signed by the Uuited
States, France, Great Britain and
Japan, we terminate the Anglo
Japanese alliance. That alliance
was a breeder of suspicion in North
America, both in Canada and the
United States. It had an unfortu-
nate effect in Asia. It offered q
soil in which seeds Of war might
easily grow. It is gone. And that
treaty which relates only to insular
possessions and dominions of the
four powers in the Pacific merely
provides that we shall respect each
others rights in such possessions
and dominions, and that il contro-
versies arise we shall consult before
taking further measures.
There is no alliance in It; no
military or naval force is hidden
anywhere in those simple para
graphs. The only obligation we
assume Is that Of consultation and
when the consultation has been held
each nation that was in it. each
party to the treaty, is as free to
do what she thinks right as she was
when she entered the doors. The
treaty rests on the good intentions,

TAX REPORT TO
BE WH0PPER
Converse Has Elaborate
Plan With Seventeen
Major Headings

Bismarck N. D.. July 18.-North
Dakota's tax commissioner will prac-
tically write a volume on taxation for
the biennial report of his department
If he follows out his present plans.
The large amount Of work and the
field to be covered. is due, according
to Mr.. Converse to the many laws on
taxation passed in the asst few years,
and the necessity to an accurate re-
port upon the working of these laws.
The outline Mr.. Converse has pre-
pared has seventeen major headings.
while many of these major headings
are divided up into seven or eight sub
sections. .
The seventeen headings under
matters of the a department also
show the wide r~ami1cations of the
J tax work in the state. .
, The Major Divisions.
( The major divisions are:
Income Tax, inheritance Tax, Oil
Tax. Car Line Tax. Excise Tax, Tax
' on Bank Stock, Tax on Telephone
Properties, General Property Tax,
classification and exemption and their
effect upon the distribution or shift
ing of the tax burden, General Prop
erty Tax, Limitation of Levies,
Burdensone Taxes, Cost of Govern
ment, Distribution of Expense of Gov
eminent. County Assessor System,
Land Classification. Taxation of Min
eral and Oil Properties, Conclusion.
Some rather exhaustive research
work into the facts of the working of
the states taxes is being conducted
to get at the facts under one of these
headings. One of the findings has
been that under one of the rules of
taxation of foreign corporation, it has
been impossible to figure out any of
the foreign corporations Of the state
as making a profit -

Men
FOR HARVEST
ARE NEEDED
If Rust Does Not Develop
Immense Crop Will De-
mand Much Help.

Fargo, N. D., July 19.-Estimates
of additional men needed in North
Dakota harvest range from 10000
to 10000. The lower estimate Is by
Mrs. NJ. B. Bowe, in charge Of the U.
S. employment Office here. The other
one made by H. B. Fuller, state Sec
rotary of the Farm Bureau Fedora
ton, Is based on preliminary esti-
mates Of fifteen county agents of the
needs of their particular counties.
Transtents nave begun to pour into
the state and the influx is expected to
continue as n of the largest harvest
seasons the state has seen-barring
rust-surges to its climax. They come
largely through two main gateways-
Fargo on the asst and Cakes on the
south-sturdy and brown, hardened
by weeks and months Of work on
farms scattered all the way from
Texas to the southern boundaries Of
this state.
Freight trains coming through
Fargo usually carry from Is to 80 Of
them. according to rail workers.
Brakesmen and conductors generally
let them ride in peace. they say.
Rye Harvest Elongated.
The first of the harvest activities,
the rye harvest, is scattered over a
considerable period of time this year,
and this will help the situation as far
as danger of a very sudden and sharp
need Of men is concerned, according
to Mr.. Fuller.
The preliminary county agent esti-
mates of men needed in the various
counties were made too early to be
absolutely accurate, Mr.. Fuller says,
but form a basis for estimating the
total need. The county estimates fol-
low: T VI ,*t+ ~
Pen,btna. r;2so; Dickey, 200; Het-
finger, 400; Slope, $50; Mountrail.
400; Richland, 1000: Ward. $50;
Ramsey, 1000; Foster. $50; Pierce.
200: Stutsman, 500; Cavalier, 900;
Sargent, 200; LaMoure, $50. Total for
the fifteen counties, 10000.
But two OF the counties making the
estimates Of labor are from the Slope
country where the indications are that
one of the largest harvests in its his
tory will take place. and the north
west part Of the state, where crop
prospects are also excellent, is not
we'll represented in the above list of
counties while the. better conditions

Der of harvest hands to be needed.

Collie Dog Leads Man
To Dead Master After
Rounding Up Sheep Herd

Dillon, Mont, July 10.-The re-
markabEe wisdom of the Scotch
collie dog was demonstrated most
strikingly in Beaver Head county
last week, according to word of
several we'll known ranch men of
the community, when S. T. Lipps,
well known sheep man, was killed
by lightning while on duty tend
ing his sheep.
Two days after q terrific Cleo
trfcal storm had passed over the.
valley, Ben, a well known Scotch
collie dog, appeared at the tent
Of another camp tender in the
dead of night and awakened him.
The man gently put the dog out
Of the tent but the animal re-
turned and continued to whine.
The man fed the dog and discov.
cred him to be half starved.
Early in the morning he and 9TH
ers followed the animal which led
the way into the hills, and there
in a pocket in the mountains was
the herd Of sheep, not one miss.
ing, but no herdsman. Tracks
showed that the dog had driven
the sheep to the pocket, a dis
tancc Of a mile and a half.
Still following the dog the: men
were led to the dead body OF the
herdsman, and then it became
apparent that when the man was
killed the dog had rounded up
the sheep and without food
watched them for two days on
the feeding ground but when no
other man came to take charge
of them had driven them to tho
pocket for safety and then made
the trip to the camptender's tent
to secure aid.
Ben is now the idol of the
sheep men of Beaver Head

GOODCONDlII!OlN
Combined Capita. Over $751;
100000, Surplus More
Than 81, O0o, 900

Bismarck. N. D., July 1s.-With
the report from fourteen banks miss
ing, none or them large, the total
capital stock OF North Dakota's So
state banks and l56 national banks
has been computed at SIS 100, 500 by
Mr.. Lyman Baker. statistician of the
North Dakota tax department. While
the banking department makes a re-
port of the conditions Of the national
banks at every call issued by the
comptroller of the currency, the state
banks d onot report at these calls and
the figures Of Mr.. Baker are a con-,
%solidation Of both the state and ma
tional banks.
The reports indicate the condition
at the end Of the fiscal year, or about
June 80.
At the same time the banks had a.
surplus of $7,284,0S5 and undivided.
have real estate valued at ,$8,275,-
579.81.
The figures are reported to the state
tax commissioner in his supervisory
capacity. The banks pay taxes on
their eight and a quarter million real
estate the same as other real estate
is taxed. They also pay taxes, accord
ing to the recent agreement between
the state officials and the banks upon
their capital stock under the classih-
cation of No. 2 property or fifty per
cent of the value. Under these con-
ditipns the bank valuation certified
to the counties this year for assess
ment purposed will be 50, $50, 221.OO
with fourteen small banks remaining
to be heard from.

Recommends Sour
Milk To Save Lives
OF All Young Fowl

Fargo. N. D., July 1s.-1f you want
to prevent your chicks and young
turkeys from having that droopy look
which usually ends with the death Of
the bird, feed them plenty Of sour
milk, butter milk or cottage cheese,
according to DR.. A. F.. Schalk, station
veterinarian at the state agricultural
college here. That is the best way of
fighting a disease with a long anne
coccidiosis-which is prevalent this
year, he adds.
Heavy grain rations should be
avoided. There are medicines which
may also be used t. fight the disease
but they usually fight the chick or
turkey as we'll Is the disease and it is
a question as to whether it will kill
off the chick or the disease first
The fowls instead of having only
one appendix as is the ase with the
human beings, has two Of them.
C~occidiosis Is caused by microscopic
parasites which get into these. In Sc
vete cases they get into the liver after
which the chick or turk usually dies.
The young turkeys are also suffer-
irg from tape worm.
These disease attacks are especially
serious amonE the turkeys. accordnlg
to IT,. Schalk. The business of rlising
turkeys has increased in the state ten
fold in recent years. A number of
persons last ear raised from $1,000
t. s3s00 worth Of turkeys n s"naii
towns Of the state have shipped them
out by the carload during the rush of
the holiday trade. During the fall,
focks Of so to 800 are o uncom-
monty, to be seen, according to DR..
Schalk. The high price which has
prevailed for turkeys in the last years
is given as a cause.
North Dakota, with its dry climate
and offering as it does an occasional
feast of choppers" to the growing
turkey is an ideal place for raising
them. the doctor says.
