DAIRY PROSPECTS

1t should be matter Of some
pride for our North Dakota farm
ers to know that this state made
faster gains in dairying from 1910
to 1922 than any of the other states
ir the union excepting Montana.
The percentage Of grain in North
Dakota was S5.4. the highest in the
United States with the exception,
IS we have stated, Of Montana.
This shows very conclusively that
our farmers are commencing to sea
that in the dairy cow lies the pro-
fit and the real meal ticket when
crops fail. 1t is very rarely case
where feed cannot be secured while
crops may fail for some cause or
other, and when you have few
good COWS bringing in the checks
every month you know that YOU
have living. at least. North Da-
kota from this on is going to grow
rapidly along dairy lines. and
those who are going into dairying
are doing SO with good stock.-Val-

Such funny place as it was!
Everythink that was ever lost in the

And they had all come to life and

A penny was talking to a jack
knife.
"Oh, no, no! Tommy Smith lost
me one day through crack in the

was on his way to buy lollypop
when he lost me, and a good thing it
was, for lollypops always gave him
tummy-ache."
"And l." said the jack-knife, twas

MY DEAR FRIENDS: :,
Things are not as bad as they
looked at. first. OF course, knowing
that you would be heartbrokcn if
they had been found to be as
thought they were, l am Fastening
to write to you.
Young Mrs. Prescott, / learn, is
here with her mother and father
seeing her younger sister off for
London. But you can see how Lax
the entire family is when l tell YOU
that this younger sister is going
abroad without an escort or chap
cron.
Mr.. Whitney seems to be one OF
the party everywhere they 60 and /
do not understand why he and Mrs.
Prescott were alone together on the
night which l saw them, for since
that time, until the boat left this
morning, the whole party, inclusive
of even Mr.. Hamilton, seemed to be
on pleasure bent. f
Of course | have not called upon
Mrs. Prescott. l hardly think she
would remember me, but my friend,
Sarah Peabody, and | have managed
to see them often, for we sit almost
daily for quite while in the Pea
cock Alley of their hotel watching
the crowds passing to and fro.
Mrs Prescott is wearing some gor-
geous clothes. I presume they are
a part of her trousseau. wonder
that she cares to show all this fash
ion when her husband is not with
her.

night as they passed us, eyes, that

thar can develop into great state
tradition.
Not all Of the romance has left
the West by any means, but many
Of the cid time stunts, particularly
those connected with Indian lore.
IRE rapidly becoming little more
than tradition. Western movie
stories continue to attract large
number Of fans, NOrthw western fic-
ton was never more widely read
than at present, western paintings
were never more eagerly purchased
or viewed in art galleries. Ora
mat'Zation or perturbation of the
romance of the old West seems to
fill the need, the unsatisfied long
ing for adventure and romance in
practically every human heart.
State parks are being planned to
protect for posterity the old his
tOrical sites in North Dakota
Olher parks are being suggested as
home for every sample of North
Dakota fora and fauna. Forest
preserves are suggested for parts
oi the badland district in western
North Dakota. Why not, then, an
annual roundup or rodeo to per
retuate the romance of the buffalo
hunt, Of the old cowboy days, OF
pioneer days.
Mandan ia instituting an event
that can rival the famous rOdeos
Of Miles City, Montana, and Chey-

n splendid idea. and one worthy of
perpetuat'ng as an annual affair.
