This result as to sugar beets was

now has much more information on

no money to take advantage Of the
Information available by launching

addition to an epidemiologist there
is real need in his department for
a sanitary engineer, Whittemorc
said.
One Of the major jobs Of 1927 was
that relating to infant and maternity
hygiene, he said. Two clinics were
in the field throughout most Of the
year and handled thousands Of cases.
Records of the department show 20
maternal deaths and 1000 infant
deaths during the year and Of these
two-thirds died from preveptable
causes, DR.. Whittcmorc said. II
this work is to be carried on after
1929, he said, the state will have to
appropriate money for its support
since federal aid will be withdrawn

director, said here today in reviewing

The state had no major epidamics

to good fortune, rather than good
sense, DR.. Whittemorc said, since
little public health work was done

opportunity for service.

Commenting on his figures and the
agricultural situation throughout
the state, Mr.. Devine said: 1.-THE
bushel value Of the above estimate
for all grain we have used market
quotations at Fargo and Bismarck
as Of September LIST and October Bird,
striking an average Of both. This,
we believe, gives more dependable
estimate Tor the state as q whole. In
estimating bushel volume Of grain
produced we used monthly state
ments given out by Paul Newman,
government statisticain, at Grand
Forks, which, we believe, are fairly
conservative. It is interesting to
note the relative value of hard and
Durum wheat, Durum being seven
million less in bushel production and
having in crop 100000 acres less
than that Of hard wheat.
Margin Of Profit Low
notwithstanding the grain crop
Of this year was the fourth largest
in the history of the state, vet the
margin Of profit above overhead cost
is rather low other than that Of rye
and barley. The diversified crop is,
however, the largest both in volume
and value in the history Of the state
and the market price, other than
hogs and potatoes, largely pryfAta~l..
Beef stock had q good year with
plenty Of feed and to spare, and in
addition, commanded the highest
price per pound for some years past.
With corn, alfalfa and sweet clover
acreage constantly increasing there
is bigger and better day ahead for
good grade and thoroughbred short
horns, herefords and other high
grade stock. The dairy cow Of this
year, as well % in al other years,
again demonstrated her high value
as . consistent profit producer. In
estimating total value production
for dairy, beef stock and sheer, we
have added the market price value Of
this years increase. Each succeeding
year evidences the fact that we can
produce % good q hog or steer q
Iowa or Illinois, and o. good q COW
as Wisconsin or Minnesota.
Lead All States
"The estimate shows we lead all
states in volume and value Of hard
and durun wheat, winter rye, barley
and flax. The total value Of grain
and diversified crops show IN aver
age value per farm Of 45,lS1, and
per capita value for the state Of
$4,000. We assume this will be- an
