Dear Jane Jordan--I am a girl
%. For about two years I've been
going with a married man 33

Number of Hogs in
N. ID. Fell Last Year

Livestock on North Dakota farms
at the beginning Of the year showed
only q slight increase over q year
ago, according to the monthly report
of the federal agricultural statistician
at Fargo.
The increase In cattle and sheep
was offset largely by q II per cent de-
crease In number Of hogs.
Cattle and sheep numbers last
month represented new all-time rec
ordS for the state.
Low prices have been q great in
fluence in keeping livestock on the
farms, despite the feed shortage of
1881. The feed crop in 1882 was am
pie and livestock prices still lower.
Total farm value of all livestock In
the state at the beginning Of the
year was placed at $59, $4,000. COM
pared to SCI. 611 900 q year ago and
$89, 956. 900 two years ago, the Stats
tician reported.
Cattle were estimated to number
1851 900. sheep $4,000 and hogs
623,O00 head.
