Gain, It Is Shown by | Figures | g The University .of North Dakota’ News Letter, under uate of Decem-| ber 15, 1920, furnishes some very in- teresting North Dakota statistics. -Fargo, the state's largest city, has a Population of 21,961, and shows the largest increase of any city in the state, and the largest .n its history for any decennial period, also the lar- gegt increase for any decennial per-| iod of any city in the state. Minot enjoys the second place and Bismarck third, under the same comparisun. North, Dakota has 12 cities of 2,500 or more, 81 cities of less than 2,500—! total of 98, showing an increage of 29 over 1910 census. The national census shows an in- crease of 14,9 per cent. over 1910. The gain from 1400 to 1910 was 21 per cent., while the population of the state ‘of North Laxota is 646,730, a gain of 11.9 per cent. This is Jess than the average gain of the whole country, three states, however, showing a loss in population. ‘al North wakota Census Record: 1870, 2,405; 1890, 36,909; 1890, 190,- 983; 1900, 319,146; 1910; 50/,056; 1920, 645,730. The greatest gain shown was the decade 1900-10, when an increase of 80.8 per cent occurred. The state has passed South Dakota in population and now ranks 36th.

It is interesting to note that North Dakota's gain in rural population, during the same period, is larger than the gain in urban population. The urban population in 1910-was 19 plus and is now 13.6 per cent. The nation fis a wholo shows 4n increase of 3. per cent. in rural population. Fartuer data, however, shown in the bulletin evidences. clearly. that the movement has been from the country districts to the larger towns and cities; but, as a matter of fact, the movement was probably from the small 8, ‘denominated. rural under the census ‘rule, to the larger towns and cities, while there has probably been # con- , Sistent movement from the country to! the smaller towns, which, however, the census figures do not disclose. ‘The 1920 figures show that in North Dakota there were\212,204 people liv- ing in incorporate praces—villages, towns and cities—and 88,237 living .n the towng and cities of 2,500 or more. This makes a total of 300,441 in the incorporate communities and’ leaves 945,289 persons living in the country districts. Stated in per cents, there) are ‘13:6 per cent. living in the larger ‘towns and cities, 33 per cefit living in Places under ‘2,500’ and 4.4 per cent | ‘ving in the country. North Dakota, therefore, is a state practically wita- out large’ cit: nly: three above 10,- 000—with nearly four times as many towns—some destined to become -im- portant later—as the average and 14.6 per cent. more people living in the -country thah'the national average, H Pomerania, Germany, has had a 600 per cent increase in divorces as com-; pared with the period before the war. ——— ‘Pape’s Cold Compound” is | Quickest Relief Known Don't stay stuffed-up!; Quit blowing | and snoffling!
