VETERAN WOMA EDUCATOR JOINS NIELSON FORGE School’ Circles Pleased With Ap- pointment of Mrs. Martha P. Tatem, Williston TO BE RURAL INSPECTOR Former Superintendent in Wil- liams County Will Be Third on Strong Staff North Dakota educators are de- lighted with an announcement made today by,Miss Minnie J. ‘Nielson, state superintendent of public instruction, to the effect that Mrs. Martha P. Ta- tem of Williston, one of the best known school women in the state, nas! accepted an appointment as inspector of rural, consolidated and graded schools on Miss Nielson’s staff. The last assembly made an appro priation for a third rural school in-| spector, it having been discovered | that the work was heavier than two could successfully ‘handle. The ap- pointment of Mrs. Tatem rounds out what educators regard an exceptional. ly capable force, the Williston wom- an’s associates in this division be- ing Edward Erickson of Grafton, for- mer superintendent of Walsh county schools, and J. W. Riley of Fargo, for many years superintendent of schools in Cass county. Mrs. Tatem will con- tinue to ‘reside in Williston and will) have’ charge of the northwestern quarter of the state. ‘The new inspector served for eight years as superintendent for Williams county, where she had much to do with the organization of rural school districts, ‘both before and after the partition .of Divide county from its mother shire. She is a woman of ma- ture experience and démonstrated ability in sehool affairs, and it is only pécause of the interest which she al- ways has taken in-school matters that she'has consented to enter the new field opened to her. Half of the county .superintendents of schools in North Dakota are wom- en. The gentler sex has from the earliest: history of e@ucational affairs inthe ‘territory and state taken a prominent and progressive place: in everythiny that has affected’ the schools,-and the advent ‘of a woman i ctor of ‘rural schools is regarded as ‘in keeping with this trend. New Assistant Dr. G, A, McFarland; for more than a. quarter! of: a century ‘president. of Vahey ‘City normal leaves Miss Niel- son's staff September 1 to accept the sunerintendency of city schools at Williston. Dr. MeFarland was’ re- quested by a number of his former students to visit Williston a short time:ago. \ There offer they made him there was tod ‘attractive to ‘be’ resist- ed, and, with much regret. this vet- eran educator severs his pleasant, if not ._over-renumerative, connections with the state department. As as- sistant state superintendent of public instruction, he was the only deputy at the state house whose salary was not increased in keeping with the ad- vanced cost of living last winter. His suecessor will be Miss Bertha Palmer, formerly of Devils Lake, and who has been primary assistant from the first of the year. In her supervision of the primary schools. Miss: Palmer's duties have taken her into every section of the state, and she is thoroughly familiar with the field which she will cover as assistant state superintendent. She will continue to handle ‘her prigary work in connection with her new duties. . INDUSTRY BOARD NOT BIDDING IN EQUITY FACTORY i. (Continued. From Page One) them imfmediate prosperfty in the form .of a state-owned .and operated public utility. The capital city is scolded if any comment unfavorab]e to the league or its industrial pro- gram is-heard,. and it is openly threatened: withAhe loss of ‘the ‘state capitol, the’ Bgnk of. North “Dakota; the “penitentiagy and the governor's mansion, with/iths bright and shiny new rugs. Argaments Without Effect These arguments have had no ap: parent effect, and league leaders openly admit. that their program is not ‘teceiving the encouragement from the larger’cities which they expected, from .purely selfish motives. The Drake proposition’ is simply an ex periment, financed’ by Drake’s ‘own citizens. The state has added nothing to Drake’s wealth or prosperity which the’ town did not’ already have. Tt has sold the geople, ‘or hopes to sell them, $36,000 worth of mill and ele vator bonds. With the ‘proceeds the state pays $20,000 for the Drake flour mill, whi has been ably operated by Private owners for some time, and it promises-t0 set aside the remaining’ $16,000 for operating capital.

This 35-cent tax HAILINSURANCE FUND WILL NEED THREE MILLIONS Claims to Date Number 12,163— Average Is Going Up With Late Reports 35-CENT LEVY PROBABLE The hail insurance division of Com- missioner Olsness’ office has received 12,153 claims for indemnity from farm- ers whose growing crops were dam- aged -by hail. he department has checked over 4,998 of these claims a9 adjusted, and it finds that they call for the payment of $1,258,906.46 in in- demnities. It is estimated that the department will be obligated to the payment’ of not less than $3,000,000 when all the claims now on jhand are finally adjusted. Early in the season the average per individual claim was but $166. Re- cently the average has increased to $250; the number of claims is much greater, and the percentage of claims which, upon investigation, disclose actual losses is greatly enhanced, Out of 301 adjustments reported yester- day it was disclosed ‘that only 11 Claims reported to the office had re- vealed “no loss when finally investi- gated. Insurance Commissioner Olsness has recently estimated that the aver- age ‘assessment per acre which will ‘be asked of farmers whose crops are protected through the state ‘hail de- partment will be 35 cents. Early in the season the.commissioner's esti- will ‘be spread over about acres of land, whose owners did not avail themselves of the withdrawal privilege prior June 15. In addl- tion to the 92,625,000 which this as- sessment will y , the department will have about $750,000 derived from @ flat tax of three cents per acre to which all arable land in the state is subject. It. is now believed that the aggregate thus provided will suffice to indemnify all farmers protected through the bureau and to pay costs of operating the dsvartment. e | MARKETS | ——_______—_—_—* ST.
