the club house at Puuncne instead OF

was attractively decorated, and was
large enough to hold the crowd OF

people were 10th to leave when the

new Congregational church was dedi-
Gated here with most appropriate ex-
ercises. There were morning, after
noon and evening services. The serv-
ices were under the lead of the pas

Splendid Array of
Cups for improved
Seed Growers Contest

ton, has succeeded In getting Henry
Schroeder and 2. D. Grant Of Moor
head, to actJas commercial judges up
on the varieties of potatoes. Mr..
Schroeder also shows his interest In
this matter by giving one Of the most
liberal of any Of the prizes, namely,
twenty bushels Of choice. select, Early
Ohio potatoes which are shipped to the
winners Of the fourth, fifth sixth and
seventh prizes In the Early Ohio con-
test. AS the potatoes and vegetables
will all be judged by the commercial
judges and by the seed laboratory
judges without knowledge Of the
names of the senders and the sum Of
the points thus obtained will consu-
tute the basis upon which the prizes
are awarded, it will be quite apparent
that when prize Is finally awarded,
it will be very close to the seed value
Of the individual entry offered. The
Forum hopes that potato growers of
this whole region will take great inter-
est in the potato contest, and every
one should try to see whether he can
carry off the 800 championship cup
or the very beautiful one awarded by
the Northern Pacific Railroad Co. for
first place In the Early Ohio contest.

WOULD TEACH
PEOPLE TO SAVE

r washington, Dec, :s1Z5.-BiI Ifacditsss
experienced by postal officials in
teaching the people to save and econ
omize' are set forth by Third Assist
ant Postmaster General. Dockery in
his annual report, made public last
night. To minimize this problem Mr..
Dockery recommends the inaugura-
ton Of a campaign Of education by
which the people may be brought into
closer touch with the postal savings
service.
The fundamental purpose OF the ne
gotiation is to create "a spontaneous
desire to save and economiZe."
Already the department has called
upon its depository paymasters to
further such a movement.
A statement, showing the growth OF
the postal savings system is contain
ed in the report. At the close Of the
first six months Of operation there
were 1913 depositors with $677,145
placed to their credit. On June 80,
1918 at the close of two and a half
years. there were 331,006 depositors
with $33,818,S70 to their credit.
The use of the parcels post service
as ready, cheap and efficient means
Of transportation has been realized by
the people and they have accepted 1t
as their utility agent, Mr. Dockery as
serts. BY 1t, the report concludes, the
consumer is placed in direct touch
with the farmer and producer whose
products are now laid at his door for
the lowest price and the way to the
lowering Of the high cost of living Is
opened.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1913-12-23

The Forum takes special pleasure
in calling the attention of the farmers
Of the state, and especially those OF
the adjacent region to the very won
derful display Of silver cups tnat are
offered for contest in the dlHerent
classes of seeds and vegetables. They
may be seen in the window or the
Stern Clothing store on Broadway and
N. P. avenue 1t Is to be doubted II
anyone has ever seen a finer collec-
ton of silver cups given in any cham
pionship contest. 1t Is to be remem-
bered also that these are only given
to the championship Of the different
groups. Fine cash prizes are award
ed for each individual contest. The
cups and shields only represent the
sweepstake for each class.
