That's nothing. The Irish cop crop covers the entire United States. During the past week much has been mentioned in the metropolitan press as to the sugar situation in Swatow, China. The fascinating thing to us is the name of the place Swatow! Sounds like a fly cemetery. The following interesting notice appeared last week in the columns of an enterprising Minnesota news paper: "I have been instructed by the vil lage council to enforce the ordinance against chickens running at large and riding bicycles on the sidewalk. Harry Shiels, Village Marshal." Before the saloons closed in Be midji there was considerable com ment to the effect that if the saloons would close the city would not be able to recover from the loss of liquor li cense moneys. The report of the tax levy published in the Pioneer Satur day shows that the city has not alone recovered but has made a reduction in comparisonv money. Today, Hennepin, Nicollet and Le Sueur counties vote as to whether the sale of liquor shall be prohibited in/ them. The fight in Hennepin is being watched with considerable interest by the entire country. If Minneapolis should vote dry it will be the largest dry city on the American continent and by voting dry it will insure the passage of a statu atory state-wide prohibition bill and also a state constitutional prohibi tion bill. Minnesota politicians will be very busy next year. In elections it is just one thing after another. First comes the presidential primaries at which the voters of the state are to express their choice for president and vice-president and elect delegates to the national conventions of the several parties. That takes place Tuesday, March 14. After the presidential primaries wttl come the-state, county and con gressional pximariea Monday, June 19. After that the big battle ends with the general election 4 Tuesday, No vember 7. NORTHWEST BRIEFS. Sisseton, S.

HILL SUBSCRIBES TO THIRD GIGANTIC GERMAN LOAN IN UNITED STATES St. Paul, Minn., Oct. 4.E. H. Bailey, president of the First Nation al bank, owned by James J. Hill, con ferred with Hans Grunow, German consul today, to arrange details for taking large amounts of the third gi gantic German loan being subscribed in this country, Mr. Bailey in this capacity is acting as Mr. Hill's agent. Mr. Hill desires to secure large por tions of both loans, and underwrite both, offering prospective purchasers their choice between the two loans. The German loan is being offered by Zemmerman and Forshay, New York, bearing 5 per cent interest and callable before 1924. The loan is unsecured, as in the case of the al lied loan, and is being offered at $210 for each 1,000 marks, which make 4 marks equal 84 cents. Before the war four marks equalled 96 cents. NORTH DAKOTA YIELD SETS NEW RECORD Grand Forks, N. D.f Oct. 4.The five principal crops produced in North Dakota this year are worth $188,- 523,546, the greatest wealth ever pro duced by the state in a single sea son. This is the summary of a state ment issued by R. F. Flint, state commissioner of agriculture and labor. Incidentally, Mr. Flint places the state's production of spring wheat at 143,827,812 bushels, as against the government's estimate of slightly more than 126,000,000 bushels. Mr. Flint bases his estimate upon the government's calculations as to the yield per acre, and uses hia own statistics of the actual acreage sown to wheat. The figures issued by Commissioner Flint, as to the value of the state's production, follow: Wheat ....$129,472,030 Oats 26,099,720 Flax 7,485,933 Barley 22,050,410 Rye 3,415,453 In his estimate of the yields for the state, Mr. Flint fixes ithe oat yield at 89,999,035 bushels, the flax yield at 5,127,352 bushels, the barley yield at 53,781,488 bushels and the rye yield at 4,161,187 bushels. Mr. Flint also compares the 1915 production with that of 1910, and the results are startling. Wheat this year is figured worth 246 per cent more than wheat in 1910 oats have increased 351 per cent flax de creased 8 per cent, and barley in creased 821 per cent.

The length of the ditch system is 111 miles, consisting of six ditches running east and west and seven ditches north and south, putting a ditch almost alongside of every quar ter section. The average depth of these ditches will be about seven feet, and the banks will be leveled for road purposes to the width of twenty feet, and will furnish a complete road sys tem from the start. This system covers the entire area that can be drained into the Warroad river. The district is about sixteen miles south of Warroad and will convert 500 Homesteads, which were heretofore too wet for agricultural purposes, in to the finest farms in the northern part of the state. MINNESOTA WOMAN'S PRISON TO BE UNLIKE MOST PRISONS St. Paul, Minn., Oct. 4.Minne- sota will have a completely new prison for women, probably next spring. It will be erected just as unlike a prison building as it is possible to make it, just forty feet from the men's prison at Stillwater. It will be separated from the men's prison by a heavy clump of bushes and trees. Its capacity will be forty, there being seldom more than use for 20 places in the present prison.
