Secretary Graves Says This
City Will Lead Process
sion in Construction.
DOLLAR
MARK VERY NEAR
Situation Here is Unusual
Balance of County Sees
State of Inactivity.

This year will be a record breaker
for Grand Forks. More building will
be done in Grand Forks this year than
ever before. said Secretary C. w.
Graves of the Commercial club today:
II believe Grand Forks will lead them
all in the amount of building to be
done. This is based upon the ratio of
building to population. L don't
think" he said, that any city in the
country will have a higher ratio
than Grand Forks"
There is about $4,000 worth of
buildings in sight now. The million
dollar mark may not be reached. but
more important buildings that will be
erected are the new Grand Forks
County Court house: the Masonic tenn
pie. II Bacon, Griffith and Wolff &,
Deichert flats, improvements at the
City Power plant, Street Car Barns,
and a large number of private resi-
dences and garages.
Situation Fine BY Contrast.
The situation in Grand Forks is
different from the national situation
said MIR. Graves. The entire country
is in a state of inactivity as far as
building is concerned. This is partly
due to politics. partly to the tariff and
partly to the financial situation. l
wouldn't call it an atmosphere Of de-
preston. 1t isn't that. The fact re-
mains. however, that but Il small per-
centage of building is going on or is
in state of contemplation as compar-
ed to last year."
Grand Forks will be a marked
city. 1t will stand forth as a NUM-
cipality which is going to build more
in proportion to it's population 1 be-

Metamorphosis of Crop Sit

This Year Over State.

Of Flowing Necessary.

wheat acreages over the state are
variable. From the western parts of
tne state come reports of increased
wheat acreages; from the valley come
reports of decreased acreages given
10 wheat. This change is probably due
to the fact that the large flax acreages
OF last year in the western part of
me state are being put into wheat
tnls year; n the wheat acreages in
the valley are being cut down BY di-
versified farming. More corn and
tame grass will be grown this year
than ever before in the valley.
Shows Sectional Development.
This metamorphosis in the crop sit
uatfon Is exceedingly interesting. in
dicating as it does the sectional de-
velopment of the state. The west is
rapidly going into the wheat raising
business. Flax has been u stepping
stone between the cattle roundups
and the wheat elevators. In the val
ley the TRANSFORMATION is much fur
ther advanced. Soon the farmer who
does not devote a large part of his
fields to corn and alfalfa, and who
doesn't devote a great deal of his time
to stock. hog and sheep raising will
be a rarity. r
