DICKINSON T0 VOTE ON CITY BAND LEVY 200 Petitioners Expect Measure Will Pass at Municipal Election April 2 Dickinson, N. D., March 15—A pro- posal to levy a tax of not to exceed two mills for the suport of a munici- pal band will be submitted to Dickin- son voters at the regular biennial city election April 2.

Dickinson has been without a band since city aid was withdrawn several years ago. Several times since an at- tempt has been made to reorganize the musical organization on a sub- stantial basis. Such movements have failed because of the heav.’ expense which fell upon individual members. Supporters of the proposal trust that. the plan provided under recently en- acted laws will be approvel at this election. This will enable the estab- lishment of a permanent band organ- izations, as there is an abundance cf talent in the city.

He was a veteran of five wars and known as an orator and journal- ist. The general was a witness of the famous charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava in the Crimean war, and the siege of Ducknow in the In- dian mutiny.

RAMSEY COUNTY 10 CUT WHEAT ACREAGE Cash Crops Committee of Eco- nomic Conference Makes Recommendation Devils Lake, 21. D., March 15.—(4)— Final work on the program of agri- cultural and home development was speeded today at concluding session of the economic conference, which is being attended by more than 200 farm men and women delegates from all parts of Ramsey county. The cash crops committee will rec- ommend a reduction of at least 20 per cent in the durum wheat acreage of the county due to the unfavorable price outlook. Last year 46,000 acres of hard spring wheat and 25,000 acres of durum were produced in the coun- ty. Where ground is clean, it is sug- gested that part of the excess acreage | q; be planted with flax and the balance with feed crops. With the . possibility of a higher tariff the price outlook for flax is re- garded favorable and an increase of 10 per cent in acreage was suggested. Buda, Bison and Linota are the best varieties, and all are wilt resistant, the committee reported. Oat acreage should be increased 15 to 20 per cent as not enough is produced to satisfy the present feed requirements for livestock, the committee suggested. Barley is an excellent feed crop and in some years a satisfactory cash crop and an increase of 10 per cent in acreage was recommended. A sub- stantial increase in dairy production also was recommended as a profitable means of disposing of the irge amount of feed which must be pro- duced in any good crop rotation.
