An application by the inton Electric company to construct and operate a high-tension line from Rhame to the South Dakota border was denied.

Farmers Are Miners in State in Winter Many farmers throughout North Dakota will find employment in lig- nite mines this winter, according to Albert Waddington, state mine in- Spector. During the last few years many farmers have found it profitable to leave their farms during the winter months for the mines, said, and mine owners have come to depend upon them. Benefits of the combin- ation are two fold, Waddington said. Farmers are kept busy 12 months of the year and labor problem is solved for mine operators. Many farmers have become so Al in New Headquarters THE BISMARCK.

Robin Hood Sport Is Popular State Game Archery, the ancient sport made famous by Robin Hood and his band of knaves, is coming back in this section of the state. Many enthusiasts have placed tar- gets in back yards and spend a few hours daily in practice. A local taxidermist is spending a part of his time in making bows and arrows from a special kind of wood did from Virginia. He is doing riv- ing business. A few of the enthusiasts have be- come so proficient in the use of the bow that they scorn to shoot at a stationary target and spend their time shooting at crows on the wing and small animals, A good bow and arrow, the arch- ers insist, brings out the sport of hunting a hundredfold more than shooting with a high-powered rifle. When using the older method the hunter must first stalk ‘his prey, jusing care not to frighten it until they are within shocting distance. Arrows are tipped with a steel blade, sharpened to a razor edge. They can be driven through a two: inch plank by an archer that under- stands his business. EXERCISED AT LEAST Rockland, Me.

The American army and navy are kept at figures which appear to the chief executive as moderate and as bearing testimony of their purely defensive character. The anti-war pact, by pledging its signatories to refraining from attack- ing each other, is interpreted by the chief executive as hav- ing no bearing upon a purely defen- sive military establishment, such as the American one is. Mr. Coolidge foresees, neverthe- less,that the treaty might eventually have some effect upon specific legis- e proposals which have been or will be advanced. He feels, however, sales records. that speculation on what this effect ou hha wakes ratifi- iis “Cte wat cation of the pact when congress’ ive — sizes eights—prices ranging from reaction to it will have become ap- $860 to $2485.

Submission by the British govern- ment to the League of Nations of their correspondence in regard to the pact will serve, Mr. Coolidge believes, to clarify completely this point and also to interest in the nro- ject other nations which will not be among the original fourteen original signatories.
