N. Brunsdale of Mayville, and J. K. Brostuen of Alexander. Two other measures by Senators}. Brunsdale and Brostuen provide for licensing of potato dealers and their Di ay by the state seed depart- ment. The measures set forth that this standardization is necessary to “de- velop and protect the industries in this state engaged in the growing and marketing of potatoes and other pro- duce and to conserve and promote the welfare of the citizens of the state.” Under the bill the state seed com- missioner is authorized and empow- ered to establish grades and inspection service for the purpose of making in- spections on, and otherwise provid- ing for proper handling and market- ing of potatoes and “other produce,” defined as “natural products of the farm, garden and orchard, exclusive of grain, pure seeds, livestock and livestock products.” Would Appoint Assistants ‘The seed commissioner would be authorized to appoint a chief inspec- tor and such other agents and assist: ants as necessary to assist him in en- forcing and carrying out the provi- sions of the act. ‘The act designates as official and standard grades for North Dakota, the following potaters: U. 8. fancy; U.S. No. 1; U. 8. No. 2; North Da- kota certified seed; North Dakota extra No. 1, and unclassified. “The commissioner and his agents,” the proposed act reads, “shall have the authority to enter and have free access upon and into any private or public premises or structures and the vehicles »f any public or private car- riers, including sealed or unsealed freight cars, to make examinations or inspections of any potatoes or other produce that is being graded, handled, packed, stored, offered for sale or consignment, exposed for sale, shipped or delivered for shipment, whether the said commodities are up- on the premises or in possession or custody of any person other than the shipper or owner thereof end shall have the privilege to take samples of the aforesaid commodities of suffi- cient quantity for testing or inspect- ing.” ‘Would Regulate Fees The commissioner is empowered to regulate fces that shall be charged for making grade inspections, the fees to be uniform throughout the state. The maximum fee per carload or truck joad not in excess of a standard freight carlot quantity is set at $4 for Potatoes, and $5 for other produce. ‘The commissioner may designate by regulation, as official potato ship- ment inspection points or areas, any point or station, or all points or sta- tions within a county, or at points which the majority of potato shippers at a public hearing shall favor. Power of seizure is given the com- missioner and his agents where pota- toes or any other produce are wrong- fully labelled, branded, or tagged as to grade and quality. Refusal to accept on agreed terms any shipment of potatoes or other produce which has been contracted for constitutes a violation of the act. ‘The penalty for interfering with the commissioner or his agents in carry- ing out provisions of the law is a fine ci $100 for the first offense, and-not more than $500 for subsequent of- fenses. An appropriation of $10,000 is car- ried in the measure for administer- ing the act. Two companion measures by Senators Brunsdale and Brostuen provide for licensing, bonding, regu- lating and defining wholesale potato sealers and defines the powers of the state seed commissioner in connec- tion with carrying out provisions of the law. . eck Bill Passes A bill to make effective the present Jaw providing for penalties for issuing checks with insufficient bank funds was passed by the senate Saturday. ‘The effect of the measure is to strike from the prevailing law the emergency clause which operated to make prosecution under the act prac- tically impossible. Issuing a check or draft with in- sufficient funds would be a felony if the amount is over $50, and a mis- demeanor if under $50. Eight other bills were approved by the senate. ‘These include: Measures appropriating $10,000 for the Florence Crittenton home at Fargo; appropriating. $10,000 for the North Dakota Children's Home socie- ty at Fasgo; re-enacting an appro- priation of $35,000 for construction of a bridge across the Red River in Walsh county, N. D.,; appropriating $10,000 toward construction of a bridge across the Missouri river at or near Elbowoods on highway Né. and appropriating $2,000 for the North Dakota Firemen’s association, Presidential Yacht ‘Mayflower’ Damaged Philadelphia, Jan. 26. —(P)— [tertaiamens, a woman from Here Is a scene in Mexico City after the recent series of earthquakes which shook the entire south- ern part of the country causing heavy damage.

It’s the same picture nearly every- where in the eastern section of the state, which is the heart of the; drought area. . These are the “share croppers” as they are called, on their way to the nearest Red Cross relief office or going back to their homes with the meagre rations thus provided. Nearly always it’s a sack of flour, and either a pail of lard or a little package of plain salt pork. These are prescribed by the Red Cross. It may be lard one wees and meat the next, because even from the $2/ @ week and 50 cents for each child; given them, they sometimes find it | possible to save out enough for a lit- | tle meat one week and lard the next, | 80 they alternate, one week taking lard and the next meat. They're walking or riding in wag-! ons or buggies, because they either | have sold their automobiles if they ever had any, or they do not have the money to operate them. ‘The home of these “share croppers” | contain the drama and the tragedy of the drought aftermath.

RUMORS SAY PRINCE | LINNERT OF SWEDEN PLANNING MARRIAGE \Karin Nisswandt, Daughter of Industrialist, Will Be His Bride, Reports Say Stockholm, Jan. 26—(P)—One of the story book’s most appealing tales, that of the pretty girl who marries a Prince, appeared Monday about to come true in Sweden. The principals in the romance are Prince Linnert, grandson of King Gustave and son of ‘the monarch’s sec- ond son, William, and Karin Niss- wandt, daughter of a prominent in- dustrialist of Stockholm who is of Dutch descent. Court circles deny that stories of impending announcement of engage- ment of the two are correct, but the newspaper Degblad says, apparently |with some authority, that an official| Ross’ mother, two sistes and other announcement will be made soon. Prince Linnert's mother is the Grand Duchess Marie Pavlovna of Russia, whose marriage to Prince William was dissolved in 1914. She son is 21 years old. Prince Linnert hes just finished his military. service and has been en- gaged in farming in scuthern Swe- den.
