F. iFlint, has estimated that the 1915 crop of wheat, oats, barley, rye, flax, speltz, potatoes and corn aggregate 3i6,f82,509 bushels, in addition to which he estimates that 2,197,002 tons of hay were harvested. From these estimates J. W. Bliss, state engineer, has compiled the fol lowing information concerning tlie cost of marketing this crop, which is of interest: The total number of bushels of crop as given above amounts to 8,51 .,997 tons, to which must be added the hay, making a total of 10,742,999 tons of farm products. The best informa tion available shows that of this total tonnage approximately 6,009,000 tons has been, or eventually will be, haul ed to market over the various public roads of the state. The United States Department of Agriculture estimates that in North Dakota the average load is G6 bushels of wheat or its equivalent, amounting to a trifle more than 1.8 tons. It would take 3,333,333 trips with one wagon, or a wagon train 16,000 miles in length, or 40 wagon trains stretching across the state from east to west, to market the 1D15 crop. The United States Department of Agriculture, in Farmers' Bulletin 672, states that the average distance to market for North Dakota is seven miles. Accepting this as being cor rect, the work required to market the 1915 crop will be 42,000,000 ton miles, and assuming that 15 cents is the av Ml YOIINC WOKEN are so often subject to headache—arc languid, pale and nervous—because their bioodis thin or insufficient* They are not really sick and hesitate to com plain, but they lack that ambition and following branches: vivacity which istheirbirthright.

In other words, the total cost of mar keting is 2.8 per cent of the total estimated value of the entire produc tion for 1915, or 3.8 per cent of the value of that portion of the crop which is sold, the estimated value of the total crop being $220,218,053, while the value of that portion mar keted is estimated at $160,892,846. Looked at from the viewpoint of dollars and cents only, and consider ing only the transportation of crops to market, the importance of con structing better roads and more effl ciently maintaining those already built becomes strikingly apparent, since better roads means, within reasonable limits, bigger loads. DAKOTA DIVISION The Northern Peciflc records show that in the five months' period from August 1 to December 3i, some 15, 000 carloads of grain \vere ^ilPed off the Jamestown is headquarters, states the Carrington Independent. This is an average of 20 carloads for every mile of line on the division and is a criterion of the remarkable wealth of the state. Va,w he Dakota division, of which .i1A rin nf fim Placed end to end these cars would make a single train over a hundred miles in length—reaching from Jamestown to Dilworth, Minn. And to pull them would require a string of locomotives two miles long. The train would have a capacity of 15, 000,000 bushels of grain, worth at present prices, considerably in ex cess of $20,000,000. Estimates prepared from the re ports from each station on the divi sion indicate that' at least a quarter of the crop yet remains in the farm ers' bins. Daring the rush season 500 cars of grain were loaded in a single day. The division comprises the main line,'Jamestown to Mandan, and the hrnn" The Valley branch to Oakes. Jamestown to Leeds. Pingree to Wilton. Sykeston branch. Esmond branch. Linton branch. Mott line and iSunn Center branch. The total mileage of the division is 770 miles—something of a huge oc topus with feelers reaching out a hundred miles or more and all pour ing their wealth through the eastern gateway to market.—Jamestown Alert.

Griffith's seven-reel photo dramatic masterpiece '"The Esccpe," which is to he the-attraction on Wed nesday at the Bismarck theater, is based on the problem of eugenics and shows marriage selection among hu man beings in aspects both of good and evil. Paul Armstrong, the auth qr of the very successful play of the same name, is an ardent believer in the necessity of preventing marriage* among the "unfit." It happens that this'is one of the subjects which can be shown more powerfully on the screen than on the stage, because "actions speak louder than words" and because the exper iences of the two young women, who are IBS "l^fficfpal characters, can be givei)^jf$fcviKinfinitely more detail. The incident for instance, showing the death, of an infant—the children of the "unfit" couple—could not be put on the stage at all. In fact, many Of the episodes could scarcely be phrased, in language, but the signifi cance of the events that transpire are perfectly evident to the audiences watching these things occur The Escape*' may be described as showing th6 escape of a woman from degradation, through sin, One of the wbnderful qualities of this drviha is its'diversity of emotion. It Contains the taost terrific realism, the most idealised symbolism, the most thrilling melodrama, the most serious psychology, the most intense heart interest, and the most extra ordinary spectacle. Dr. D. W. Griffith spent nearly five monthB after completing the "Birth of a Nation" iii staging "The Escape" and devoted himself to the work ab solutely without any financial limita tions and with the greatest enthus iasm. Scenes which did not satisfy the director were done over again and again in order that every action might be just right and might convey the utmost meaning. The cast of this drama includes Blanche Sweet, Mae Marsh, Robert Harron, Donald. Crisp, Owen Moore and other established film stars.
