eee PLAN 10 START “WORK ON POWER PLANT OF HILL Ten Men Now Working at State- owned Mill and Eleyator at Grand Forks MUCH YET TO BE DONE Ten men are now working on the _ bower house of the state owned mill ‘and ‘elevator at Grand Forks, and other forces will be added there as soon as the weather permits econom- ical work, according to Lewis F. Crawford, secretary of the Industrial ‘Commission, to whom engineers in charge of construction at the mill make reports. Efforts to finish. the power plant are being made first .be- cause of ‘the long_array of machinery that must be set up before the ‘mill! and elevator or any part of-it is in working shape. WhiJe ali the work being accom- plished at this time is on contracts tet by the former administration,. a number of contracts remain to be let. One‘is for belting, this contract alone running into‘the many thou- -sands of dollars. Other contracts will cover an office building, a testing building, while a third building will ~be a structure where the men can be accommodated while preparing and leaving work and as a noonday rest room. Most. if not all of the men will have to remain at the mill during the noon hour because of the distance from transportations and their homes. Following the installation of the amachinery in the power plant and the <ompletion of the mill and elevator buildings will come he installation of machinery and this in itself is a gi- gantic’ undertaking. Contracts al- ready signed provide for the placing of more than $200,000 worth of ma- chinery. © Lists: of ‘the items of ma- chinery for the flour mill alone cover eight typewritten pages twenty inches long while the contract items for the macaroni mill cover an ‘additional six pages. Before the mill operates to any ex- tent, railroad trackage that engineers estimate will cost’ an additional $80,- 00 must be completed. The trackage and grading already in place has been at a cost of $20,000. The completed lines will connect’ the mill‘with both the lines of the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific and make switch- ing charges as between the two roads unnecessary. While the work at, Grand Forks is being completed the Industrial Com- wission has the task of the proposi- tion, $400,000 will be available as soon as the Industrial Confwis- sion feels that it is ready to begin * ‘and to this can be added other items of bond sgJes as the work on the mill progresses. One of the first interests of the Industrial, Commission, how- ever, will be the repaying to the Bank of North Dakota of the, $1,100,000 loaned by the bank’'to be applied upon the construction of the bank up. to the prdsent point. Return of this money to other channels will be of material benefit to the bank and to enable it to meet demands from other interests. (ANGELS BOND OF SHERIFF The state bonding fund has cancel- led the bond of Leonard ‘Stockwell, sheriff pf Golden Valley county, Har- old Hopton, manager said today. He said the action was taken upon rec- ommendation of a deputy examiner. The action puts the sheriff up against the problem of either sub- stituting a satisfactory personal bond ‘or being automatically incompacitat- ed from holding oftice, Hopton said. —_——_____—_—_* % | MARKETS | ot ST.

COMPENSATION | BILL IS HELD UP FOR TIME Raising Funds Said to Favor Sales Tax Washington, Feb. 23—The soldiers’ bonus question was allowed to sim- mer today, the special committee dealing with the ways of raising funds debarring future sessions until to- morrow. There was no indication when a decision would be reached Wit some committeemen said the Dill would probably. not he reported out of committee this week or next. There still seemed to be a dispo- sition to make haste slowly. Meantime, it was said, there was a growing sen- timent among the members of the house to postpone action until after the debt funding negotiations between the United States and principal al- lied nations are under way. At this time sentiment seems to be for reporting out a bill carrying a manufacturers and wholesalers tax similar to that in force in Canada, ‘but with lower rates, KIDDIES PLOW WAY TO SCHOOL Many ‘of Them Break Paths To Get To School Today Bismarck school kiddies plowed right through the snow to school to- day, and many of them had a huge time. Fi Attendance at the Richholt school 1200 Avene D, East, was reported as about 75 per cent of normal, in spite of the fact that the children and teachers had to break their own paths from Eleventh street east. About 50 children remained at the building for lunch. Hot cosa was prepared by the teachersat the building. A good attendance also was report- ed at Wachter school, where the chil- dren also made their.own paths.

Bell of Dickinson Charged with Attacking Miss Nielson’s Work The stato board of administration has adopted a resolution : censuring Prof, W. J. Bell, of the Dickinson Nor-' mal school, for criticising Miss Min- nie Nicolson, a member of the board, The lution followed the calling of the attention of the board to an article appearing in the Fargo Cour- ier-News signed by W. J. Bell in which the work 0 Nielson ag state su- perintendent, her qualifications and the state school system were criticiz- ed. The resolution of censure jf the board was unanimous, according to Chairman Muir. Prof. Bell is understood to have sub- mitted his resignation to President May of the Normal school, but it is ;said by board members that his res- ignation was not demanded by the board, niof. Bell was instructor in psych- ology and education, having come to North Dakota from ‘South Dakota. Hef had been at the Normal School since it opened. The action was taken, it was said by members, because it was an act of insubordination. The board has also, it was learned, let out George, Hunt, who had been acting as inspector jof. construction work on the power plant at the Dickin- son Normal. The action was taken on demand of Joseph A. Kitchen, ex- officio member of the board, who held that Mr. Hunt whom he said was a farmer living north of Beach and a friend of A. C, Townley, was not quali- fic for the-work of: inspecting build- ings. Hunt was being paid $200 a month, Another member of the board said his work was finished.

Out Equitable Method With Taxing Officials of The State Bankers of the state will not seek to escape just taxation through the decision of the supreme court reliev- ing them from general taxation, as a the 1919 special session of the legis- lature, according to W. C. McFadden, of Fargo, secretary of the North Da- kota. Bankers’ Association. “While this. decision relieves the banks from: paying any general tax on bank stock, there is no desire on the part of the banks to escape their just share of. the tax burden,” says W. C. Macfadden, secretary of the North Dakota Bankers association in a statement regarding the decision. “The banks anticipated this deci- sion, upon the advice of the attorney for the association, A. G. Divet,” says Mr. Mefadden, , ‘‘and about three weeks ago .the executive committee of the bankers’ association met with a large number or representative bankers cf the state and unanimous- ly determined that upon the estab- Nshment of the principle of equal taxation of bank stock with other property the banks of the state would voluntarily pay taxes for the years involved, based upon the gyates | charged against other personal prop- erty of the state. \ mittee and other bankers of the state} has been communicated to the state| ' taxing. authorities and it is expected; that within a very short time a com- mittee from. the bankers’ association: .will‘take the matter up with the state| authorities and a just and equitable} tax for the years involved arrived at} and the same will be promptly paid by | the banks.” Some of ‘the banks of the state have} already paid in thejr 1920 assessments. | Others refused to pay, awaiting the! decision of the supreme court on the! test case. Those banks which have; paid have a rebate coming, for their! proportionate share, of the taxes; which the supreme court now holds was illegally assessed. —__-— i Dance every Tuesday, Thurs-; day and Saturday evenings at) 8:30. at: The Coliseum, formerly Baker’s Hall, newly redecorated. 10c per dance. | SWEET CLOVER SEED — White blossom, ..scarified and guaranteed free from any noxious weed seeds ATTENTION rvicés. of| ten men to act as This-is not stock or other bonus methods. ‘ Also state how soon you could start to work.

There are many ways to treat smut with formal- dehyde and while there is probably not a farmer in the spring, wheat belt who does not know and realize the advantage of smut free wheat, yet it is a fact that a great proportion of farmers neglect to treat their wheat for smut entirely ‘or do so only occasionally after an unusually bad smut year. Every. good farmer knows how to treat his seed with formaldehyde although very few take thio precau- tion every year. The increase from formaldehyde treated seed is often as much as four bushels per acre owing, no doubt, to the fact that the seed carries other disease parasites besides smut. No man’ can, afford to take the chance because the treatment is both cheap and easy. If you are variety and seed the matter up There are a great many reasons why seed wheat may not germinate; éither. from being bin burnt, wet, moldy, etc. It is a very easy matter to count one hun- dred seeds from various parts of your seed stock and test them ina wet blotting paper in a plate or saucer. Iftyou don't test for germination, you may sacrifice all your crop. 634 Securit ty Building, TONIGHT - TOMORROW WM.
