Speed of Great City Told
by Startling Figures

Statistics for the city OF New York
show that an immigrant arrives at
that port every thirty seconds and an
average of one arrest is made each two
minutes. A child is born every five
minutes and funeral occurs every
seven. Every twelve minutes mar
riage is performed and divorce is
granted for each six hours OF the day.
New businesses are started at the rate
Of one every forty minutes and fall
ure takes place every FIVE hours.
A ship leaves the farbor every forty
five minutes and someone is killed by
accident every fifty-fve minutes. The
crime records of the metropolis are
startling in that they show that every
seven hours there is an attempt to
take some persons life, suicide is
committed each ten hours, and a
murder occurs every twelve hours.

CHRYSLERHERE
DEMONSTRATED
New Car Handled by COrwin
Creates Interest

The new Chrysler Six has arrived
in Bismarck. The Corwin Motor
Company, who distribute the line
over a large territory, have kept
three men busy all the past week
showing the remarkable features of
this wonder car to interested Bis
marck customers.
When asked today by a represen-
tative of The Tribune as to why
there was such widespread interest
in the Chrysler, Mr.. Corwin said,
THE Chrysler is simply the result
of the master mind Of Walter Chrys-
Ter, working in conjunction with un-
limited money for experimental
work, and assisted by the foremost
automotive engineers of America
and Europe. Close to four years
were spent developing the car. Three
different automobiles were brought
out and discarded before Mr.. Chrys-
Ter was satisfied. The first of these
was sold to another company and
is today a most successful car. The
Chrysler is a small, high spead, per-
fectly balanced motor running on
seven crankshaft bearings. Both
oil and air are filtered practically
doing away with abrasive wear.
Hydraulic four wheel brakes, Cab
riel Snubbers, vanadium springs
parallel with the wheels, and low
center of gravity are few reasons
for the wonderful riding and handl-
ing qualities"
The Corwin Motor Company want
everybody to take a ride in the
Chrysler and experience the thrill
of a motor that will run better than
20 miles an hour on high, or 40
miles an hour on intermediate, alb
solutely without vibration.
Shipments Of all closed models
are expected to arrive during the
next two weeks, after which a spec
ial Chrysler show will be staged at
the Corwin Motor Company by rep
resentatives from the factory.

WHEAT FARMER
TO ''CASH" IN
is INDICATION
Prosperous Times Are Ahead
With Change in the World
Supply, Claim
SHORTAGE is CAUSE

Chicago, July 2l--Prosperous times
for the wheat farmers of the United
States in 1924 are predicted by promi-
nent millers, merchants and opera
tors in the grain trade.
The significant IeacA.e Is that pro
duction in the leading countries of
the northern hemisphere with the eX-
ception of the United states, IS eX-
pected to be 300 900 600 bushels short
of last year. This country will yield
about as much as last year and posi-
bly, more, the spring wheat outcome
to be determined.
The deduction is that the United
States will presently dominate the
world price.
Ii seems to be the general belief
locally that, regardless of how much
favorable weather the Canadian crop
encounters from now on, il will not
recover sufficiently to come any
where near the freak yield of 49,
100000 last year. The estimates on
probable production in Canada this
year, range from 225, 100000 to 335,-
100000 bushels.
Little Wheat Booked
Cash grain men in Chicago say there
has been very little wheat booked to
come this way. 1t is possible wheat
farmers will hold their grain back as
corn farmers did the past two years.
Millers in the United States have
been actively buying cash wheat the
past few weeks. 1t is said flour trade
is so good that accumulation OF
stocks is impossible and the necessity
of hedging is relieved
Speculation in wheat and other
grains is gradually broadening. Last
week over 5OOO00,0OO bushels Of
grain was traded in, a gain Of 100
per cent over the previous weeks
business.
Corn Remarkably Strong
Corn displays remarkable strength.
Prices registered further sharp gains
the past week. Cash corn and the
nearby deliveries in the pit are firm
lv established above the dollar level
Old corn back in the country is not
plentiful and apparently farmers are
holding onto it as long as possible.
Offerings lately have been above the
market quotations. The outlook for
the new crop is still poor.
Some grain men are not so pessi-
mistic about the final outcome of the
growing crop. They state that cold.
wet spring, as was experienced this
year always means late and mild
fall. If. such weather is realized it
is possible the corn will make a
pretty fair recovery.
Oats have displayed sustained
strength with other grains.

good reputation from the stand
point of fire prevention.
1t has been almost a month since
there was a fire in the city. The

of property by prevention of fire.

SECRET RETURN OF BIRDS
PUZZLES ONITHOLOGISTS
Watched 20 Years Without Observing
Their Actual Arrival.

The return or migratory birds III the
spring is one OF the greatest wonders
the ornithologist has to study. One
who has been studying them tor ~
wears has just stated that he has never
been able to observe their actual ar
rival.
Every morning when they are due
he goes to the place where they nest
and searches every BUSH but there is
none to be seen. Then one day, re-
turning after lunch, they are sudden
w there, and the bushes are thickly
inhabited by the arrivals from the
south. Silently and without note or
visible sign they descended. Their
punctuality, too, is extraordinary Sea
swallows turn up with the exactness
OF an ocean liner.
The scientist mentioned has record
ed that for three years they have ar
rived in a swarm of 400, on April 70,
and Immediately set up an enormous
clamor. 1t is interesting to notice how
! the discovery of a new protected site
for habitation is noised about among
the birds. Once there were no sea
swallows at this station at all. Then
few years ago one pair nested there;
| the next year there were nine pairs,
and the year following again colony
of more than 800 members came to
settle.
