Is on Decline Failure of farmers and others to interest themselves in raising colts is responsible for the rapid decline in the number of horses in North Dakota, statistics compiled by the state tax commissioner's office show. The largest number of colts foaled in the state in one year was 75,600 in 1918 and the next larg- est number was 74,314 in 1919. Heavy demand for horses for use in the war hid sent the price sky- ‘ward, it is explained, and ma the vearing of colts profitable, % Since that time the increasing use of mechanical power for farm operations had reduced the demand for horses and the number of colts efoaled has grown steadily smaller. In 1927 the number was 24,342, only about 4,000 more than the 20,794 foaled in 1925, the minimum num- ber since 1910 when the tax depart- ment first began to make a record of the ages of horses. i The equine population of the state peace @ maximum of 748,244 in 1920 and since then the ten- dency has been sharply downward, the number registered in 1927 being 577,362.. This is only 3,000 more than the 574,443 registered in 1914. Cattle Fewer Also . A decline in the number of milk ‘cattle, begun in 1926, continued throughout 1927, tax department records show. The number listed last year was 484,886 as compared with 505,176 in 1926 and 511,837 in 1925. The latter figure rep- resents the peak number for milk ‘cows since the first record was made in 1910, The sheep population of 419,399, listed in 1927, is the largest in the history of the state, so far as tax) department records show. This! number represents an increase of almost 100.000 over the 327,093 liated in 1926. . The 1927 hog population of 222,- 695, represents a decline of ap- proximately 18,000 as compared with 1926, and was about 82,000 less than the'peak number of 304,084, recorded in 191 Dist. Kositzky and L. J. Dist. 13—S. For Congress Agnes Hart Wilson, daughter of William B. Wilson, former secre- tary of labor, is seeking a seat in Congress. Her candidacy for the Democratic nomination from the Sixteenth Pennsylvania district was announced the other day in Wash- ington. a je Sais Civic Organizations Vote in Referendum Business men’s __ organizations throughout North Dakota partic- ipating in a national referendum conducted by the United States Chamber of Commerce have voted in favor of having the federal gov- ernment assume the cost of pro- tecting the lower Mississippi Valley against floods. More than 1,000 chambers of com- merce and trade _ associations throughout the country took part in the referendum and approved by an 80 per cent affirmative ballot the report of a special committee of the National Chamber which set forth a constructive program look- ing to Mississippi flood control. Four specific _ recommendations were voted on. In North Dakota, seven organizations cast ballots as follows: 1, That the federal government. should hereafter pay the entire cost of constructing and maintain- BISMARCK 70 GET MASONIC CONSISTORY Members of Order Take Initia! Steps Toward That End at Meeting Saturday The Missouri Slope will have a full-fledged consistory of the Scot- tish Rite Masons as result of a meeting of Slope Masons in the Bismarck Masonic temple Saturday night, It was unanimously decided by the Masons present at the meeting that Initial steps should be taken to secure the granting of this conces- sion by the national bodies, Location of a consistory in Bis- marck will no longer necessitate Masons of the western part of North Dakota journeying to Fargo to take all degrees from the 4th to 32nd inclusive, as-is now the case.

Deacon Thomas Chapman disliked the sour notes and, silently draw- ing a blackjack, felled Casey Mc- Gurick Jones, baritone, who was singing off key. George Washing- ton McGavock, basso, objected and, tearing a telephone from the wall, felled Deacon Chapman. Later when Sergeant Mulvihill dropped in, as was his custom, the choir, led by McGavock, was sing- ing: “Throw Out the Life Line,” while both Deacon Chapman and Jones lay unconscious, side by side, in front of the choir.
