People cry wolf every spring and

They are in fair way of being dis
credited by those who get into the
habit OF noting the discrepancies be-
tween predictions and actual condi-
tions-when the year draws to a close.
There was something more than the
usual amount Of gloomy forebodings
in the United States last spring. Yet
the government now reports that he
cotton crop will establish a new record
with only a little less than 14,000, 900
bales averaging about 500 pounds.
Sometimes the discouraging predic-
tons which come early in the year
are based upon an intelligent study Of
prospects. In the majority OF cases
they appear to be sent out by people
who are interested in speculations
and whose intention is interruptions
ly to create false impression. 1t
seems pretty safe to believe that the
crops win never fall in the United

promising years there will be an

WEDNESDAY, OCT. II. 1911.
DATE ron Fab.

The success of the agricultural ex-
hibits at the North Dakota indus
trial exposition at Bismarck is caus-
ing widespread comment. The ex-
cellence OF the exhibits not only as
tonishes the fiickertails but the visit
ors az well. The fine grain and veg
etables are the biggest advertisement
the state can possibly secure and thor
oughly demonstrates TO outsiders
what North Dakota can do in that
line.
The exhibits are 50 fine and their
effect so remarkable that many people
are becoming converts OF the plan to
hold the state fairs at later date.
The Forum urged later fair dates
for some years-but was overruled on
the ground that the farmers would be
too busy to attend during the fall
months-and also because OF the claim
there could be no interesting horse
races.
Nine years out Of ten october-in
North Dakota-is the best month Of
the twelve. Usually the weather is
delightful in every respect. The
farmers are through the rush Of
their work by October and about all
that is left is the blowing. 1t seems
to The Forum that October would be
an ideal month for a big show, The
attendance would be larger than in
July. There would be no comparison
between the class Of exhibits and 1t
would be much easier to make great
show in October than two or three
months earlier.
1t would not be necessary to entire
~ miss the races. The weather would
be nice enough for some excellent
events. 1t might not be possible to get
as large entries but there could be a
good card arranged at that date. Ev-
en- If the races were lost entirely the
rest Of the show would be so much
better that 1t would compensate.
The Forum realizes that a large
percentage Of state visitors are look
ing for amusement rather than for in
struction-but that class of people
could easily be cared for IN some 9TH
er way-and there would be some
thing in the rest Of the show that
would prove interesting to visitors
and big advertisement for the state.

GET READY FOR WINTER.

Want is often used as q relative
term. II may indicate the lack Of suf-
fcient food and clothing. It can be
taken to mean the absence of the
simple needs for home and social en-
joyment. It is used to designate the
failure Of people to attain culture
and social progress In whatever
sense the word is used. the condition
may be due to natural causes-such
as fire, food, earthquake or crop fail
ure. It may be the result of far-ex-
tending social and economic reasons.
Whatever the general conditions
may be, much always depends upon
the individual. If man is shiftless
thinks nothing OF the future
spends all OF his capital on the enjoy
ment OF the day-he may expect to be
{ 1T absolutely defenseless In the adj
vent or adverse conditions. Even those
who find the most fault with present
social conditions should conserve their
energies and what means they have
in order to better equip to fight their
economic battles.
In Fargo the time when 1t is most
difficult to obtain livelihood IS In
winter when many Industries are al
standstill. The time to prepare for
the winter season is now. The person
who confines his expenditures to his
legitimate wants and pleasures nov
win not be found waiting for free
soup kitchen when the ground Ii
frozen and piled high with snow.
