TAYLOR GIVES TALK AT ROTARY MEETING Sketches History of Wheat Pro- duction From Earliest Operations The average American consumes an average of about five bushels of wheat a year, J. C. Taylor said in an_ address on the “Story: of Bread” before members. of the Rotary club Wednesday noon. Taylor sketched the history of the from the earliest operations down through the centuries to the present era. It was in the United States that wheat-raising received its great im- petus, the speaker said, and it was here that the first practical reaper was invented to bring cheap bread within the grasp of the people. The invention of the reaper by McCormick made possible the mass Production of wheat and was one of {the great contributing factors in the jdevelopment of the modern machine age. three and one-half days’ labor to pro- duce a bushel of wheat while today it requires but 10 minutes.

Congressional delegations “had jsought $800,000 for extending the route. People’s Forum Editor's Note.—The Tribune wel- comes letters on subjects of in- terest. Letters dealing with con- ubjec! ich | then, if there is any backbone to this Proposal, it is necessary for the peo- ple of North Dakota to keep the reins in their hands and vote No for the amendment of the constitution, sim- ply for the reason it would increase the number of signers too much, and it would be hard for the people to en- act any laws. This is my honest opinion about it. This writer believes in a govern- ment for the people and by the peo- ple. I see only tworcuts were made by our last legislature, the county ‘school superintendent mileags, from 15¢ per mile to 12%c and the sheriff's mileage from 20c to 16c per mile for auto or team travel and from 10c to 8c per mile by railroad (in the state). The latter cut was vetoed by the Hon- jorable Governor. Everybody seems to holler taxes are too high. Now then let’s do some- thing. I advise that every township this year will cut their township gov- ernment expenses which can be done, regardless of how high legislation has increased the salaries of township of- ficials since 1913, The laws either forgot to take the reins away from the township elec- tors or did not want to. The following is @ law, let us town- ship voters use it: “At every township meeting (election) before the electors commence balloting for officers they may, by resolution, reduce or increase the compensation of officers, but no such increase shall exceed 100 per cent.” Of course, we do not want to in- crease the salaries. You will find the foregoing law in the Revised Code of 1899, 8. 2625, and it is a law today. Let us use it. Let us admire our old laws. You cannot miss it by voting NO down the line. It will leave the Cap- ital where it is. Yours very truly, JULIUS MEYER. ‘The bear and raccoon come down a tree backwards. A squirrel and most other tree climbers run down and up alike.

W. Corwin, president of the city park board, announced Wednesday. 1 The site is located in the woods just | below Pioneer’s Park near the Mis-| souri river, two miles northwest of Bismarck. The property was deeded to the park board by the Bismarck Hospital and Deaconess Home of the North Dakota Conference of Evangelical churches, which has owned the prop- erty for several years. The site will be made a part of Pioneer's Park and will be open to the general public. The tract, regarded as one of the park board's most valuable holdings, is heavily wooded and lends itself particularly well to use as a picnic ground, Corwin said. Under a program to be undertaken here during the year, planting will be; done at several of the Bismarck park sites. Trees will be planted along; Memorial highway to the Missouri} river bridge while trees and shrubs} will be set in at Park Lake west of) the city. Additional planting will be done this year at Hillside park, near the Richholt school, and at Tatjey Park, in the southeastern section of the city, under the program now under consid- eration. During the winter months work of jcleaning away underbrush at River- side Park on the Missouri river banks was completed, Corwin said.
