Dutch Unfortunate in Colonization Ventures The celebration on the Contl- nent commemorating the tercen- tenary of the foundation of New York recalls the fact that the great American city was originally a Dutch settlement. It was not until 1664 that it was captured by the British, and the original name of New Amsterdam was changed sto New York, Fate, indeed, has been tnkind to the Dutch as colonizers. Not only did they lose their extensive settlements In New York state and Pennsylvania, but their colony at the Cape of Good Hope, founded in 1651, also passed into British hands, suys London Answers, Other instances of lost colonies could be given, especially if those which changed hands during or after the great war were included. But how many people realize that at one time Egypt was a French protectorate and that before the ad- vent of Clive the French power in India was greater than the British? The earliest European settlements in India, indeed, were Portuguese ; but the Portuguese were driven out by the Dytch, and the latter—again unfortunately—by the British. Parrot Long Esteemed Aristotle spoke of parrots as did a writer who lived a century be- fore him, the latter describing a bird that could imitate sound and speak the Indian or the Greek lun- guage, making It over two thousand years that this member of the feathered tribe had been known to talk.. Even if parrots had not been uble to speak they would have at- tracted attention because of their brilliant plumage. They used to be favorite pets in Rome, where the great ladies kept them in cages of tortoise shell and silver wire, As the Romans of those days appre- ciated beautiful fowls more thor- oughly when served at table (such as roast peacock garnished with their own feathers), so did they esteem the parrot as a-choice dell- cacy.

The custom is said to have arisen from the old naval and military prac- tice of lowering the flag in time of war as a‘sign of submission. Span- ish ships in the Seventeenth cen- tury displayed the flag at half- mast as a signal of distress. The eustem of flying the flag at half- mast hes long been recognized in practically all the leading countries as a sign of mourning. | Too Late To Classify FOR RENT—2 rooms fot three Gen- tlemen with or without board, with young couple. 400 Ave B. 7-28—1w.

Almost the entire clip was pur- chased by S. Silberman & Son of Chicago, who sent J. G, Guthrie here as their special agent, who was aided in rounding up the product by A. L. Martin, of Sentinel Butte. The price | paid for the greater portion of the Wool w: 36 cents per pound, but some of the larger shippers did not sell but sent their clip. in on con- signment. The estimated ‘value of the Friday shipment is in excess of $12,000, while including shipments that had been made by local freight will bring the 1924 clip for Golden Valley county well above $15,000. Considerable favorable comment has been made during the past year by farmers on the sheep industry and it is not at all improbable that ai another year the amount of wool shipped from this county will be doubled. And this shipment of wool is only one item of income from the sheep business. Doubtless this fall will see the shipment of several cars of sheep to market, the’ returns from which will be no small item, besides a very probable substantial increase in pre- sent floc! Also there is a very valuable side revenue from this in- dustry in the fertility that restored to the land, the increased grain yield following the pasturing of sheep and the cleanliness of the pastured legd from foul weeds. Among those who were growers of the wool shipment of last Friday are: C. O. Carlson, P. O. Peterson, J. M. Still, Leo Kukowski, A. J, Beier, J. R. Boyer, L. E. Ulfers; Robert Alguire, Tom Ulve, H. H. Halstead, A. E. Kastien, L. C, Williams, T. E. H¢d- son and others whose names we were unable to get. The Hudson clip of 6,500 pounds was the largest con- signment. INJURY BRINGS COURT AWARD W. T. Knowles Wi Wins = Compensation Bureau Wm. T. Knowles is held, entitled to compensation from the Workman’s Compensation Insurance Bureau in a decision. made by District Judge Fred Jansonius in an unusual case. Knowles had borrowed a truck from the State Highway Commission for his own use, the judge's memor- andum of the history of. the c cites, to haul grain. He got it Sun- day morning and attempted to re- turn it at night but found the garage closed. He drove to the home of the foreman who told him to deliver it next morning at the Highway Commission shops. He was injured next morning while cranking it, pre paratory to returning it, his arm being broken. Knowles was employ- ed by the Highway Commission at the time. The question before the court was whether or not Knowles was injured while in the course of his employ- ment, the compensation bureau hav- ing ruled against him. The court, stating the question was close, held for Knowles. H. L. HALVORSON WOULD RUN N. D MILL, CUT BAN (Continued from page one.) advantage from all the reports I can get, then a staple product such as this can certainly -be sold the same as, and in competition with other like products in the biggest centers of the United States, as well as for- eign countries. “While there may be many..who wish the mill had not been built, now that we have it, it will be our business to use it and to operate it suecessfully,-and in saying this, I am not unmindful of the fact that no public. man, charged with that responsibility, will be reindorsed un- less his administration can show such a course of conduct in the operation of this industry, as.on the whole, makes the industry a benefit to the general public and the state, the original institution of the mill and elevator, or the wisdom, thereof, no longer being an issue. I _ believe this institution can be made to at least carry itself.

We are all farmers in. person. or by proxy, and with our protluctive soil and lands free from inflation, could we reduce our taxes to a near nor- mal basis, not only new neighbors would come, but those now residing in our state would soon regain the’ former independence and prosperity.” ‘MANY ENTER CORN CONTEST Hazelton Show Samples Also Come to Bismarck Show A hundred and seventeen farmers in the Hazelton area have entered a corn growing contest to compete for prizes offered by the Carpenter Lumber Company, according to J. A. Larson, district manager, who, with George Bird of 0. H. Will Company and Joseph A. Kitchen, Commissioner of Agriculture and Labor, attended a meeting in Hazelton Saturday after- noon. Seventy farmers were present. The entrants in the contest signed up at the start of the crop season and the awards will be made in the fall, the first prize being a thorough- bred pig, second prize $15 in trade tax reductions can come’ only thru] PLEASE MR.
