DEMAND FOR CALCIUM
ARSENATE is HEAVY
ESTIMATED $4,000 WORTH OF
POISON HAS BEEN PUT ON
COTTON IN TERRELL.

The farmers are buying calcium
arsenate and busting machines as fast
as local dealers and banks here can
get these boil weevil exterminators
for them.
The poison now is extremely hard
to obtain, due to an unlocked for
demand caused by the incessant rains.
The banks here, realizing that a lib
eral use of the arsenate is an import
ant factor in insuring yield of cot
ton this year, are doing everything in
their power to aid in the purchase OF
the poison. They alone have handled
around IS tons, and expect to order
as much more if the rain continues as
heretofore.
Besides IS tons the banks have sold
dealers i'll Dawson have disposed OF
"a still greater amount has been or
dered direct by the larger farmers
themselves, and there are also dealers
at Sasser, Brentwood and PARROT
The prevailing price is around II
cents pound, which makes to-
tai expenditure of approximately
$4,000 for arsenate handled in Daw-
son alone, not counting the amount
distributed from the other towns in
the county.
A dollar fairly got is worth a

HAS NEEDLE IN ARM;
SUFFERS PAIN IN LEG
Supposed to Have Entered the Knee
More Than Year Ago.

For long time Eugene Purkiss, of
Parker, S. Dakota. has been having
severe pains in his leg and knee, but
was unable to account for it. Lately
he noticed a swelling on his arm and
consulted physician, who lanced the
lump and removed a large sewing
needle, which was black with rust
The doctor stated that there was no
indication of the needle having enter
ed his arm anywhere. Mr.. Purkiss adj
vances the supposition that he got the
needle in his knee a year ago while
wedding a flower bed, as his knee has
bothered him for about that period of
time.

CATTLE PRICES
HOLD UP WELL

Both cattle and sheep in North
Dakota on April recorded improve
ment in condition over that of the
preceding month, while pasture and
range conditions remained for most
pant unchanged according to reports
from stockmen of the state to the
U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Econ
omcs, crop division, Grand Forks.
Cattle condition in percent of nor
NAL averaged 81 compared with IS
on March l, while sheep condition
averaged 81 compared with 80 a
month ago. Ranges on April l were
given $40 of a normal condition and
pastures S5 percent which figures
compare with 80 percent the condi-
ton of pastures and ranges COM
bined on March 1. Since pastures
do not start spring growth usually
until May, an April condition for
pastures reflects more the moisture
conditions as affecting the later
start and growth. e.
Farm prices for cattle and sheep
on April l tended toward improve
ment over those Of March l. March
] marketings of these classes of
stock were we'll below those of Feb
ruary and lighter than those for
March year ago.

Chicago, April 16.-Wheat opened
today with July steady at high
price record for the season, but act

downturn in values. The initial ad-
vance was ascribcd to higher quota
tons at Liverpool and to reports of
continued unfavorablc domestic crop
conditions southwest and west. The
selling, which developed, appeared to
BE chiefly in the nature of profit
taking and to be due to better wealth
or prospects Northwest The OPEN

Finally, it should be noted that. ac-
cording to the census bureau, there
has been during the past ten years an
increase of more than 20 per cent in
the number of divorces in the United
States. Divorce means family disrup-

the adverse influences exercised not
only on the divorce principals them
selves but on their children, when they
happen to have children.
OF course. we shall always have with
us some extent of ill-health, insanity.
eeble-mindedness. nervousness, crime,
suicide and divorce. But we cannot
afford long to have the present extent
of these evils. Nor need we have it If
only man-power conservation be made

policies and activities-as long ago 1t
ought to have been made.
