NORTH DAKOTA WILL HAVE ITS
T.AJJCH

Williston Herald: Members Of the
Minnesota State horticultural society
are said to have had good laugh at
Horace Greeley the other day during
a meeting at Minneapolis. 1t was Hor-
ace who was credited with having said
that it was waste of time to try to
grow apples in Minnesota. If he could
know that this neighboring state now
produces about half a million dollars
worth of saleable apples perhaps he
would enjoy the laugh on himself.
Men with less license to make pre-
dictions than a prophet so wise as
Horace Greeley are still spreading
the delusion that not much but wheat
will grow in North Dakota. If they
could live another fifty years or even
half that time they would be able to
enjoy as good a laugh on themselves
as the apple growers had at Horace
Greeley. Yes, North Dakota can grow
apples, too.

A bill prohibiting the transmission
Of liquor advertisements by mail to
anyone except licensed liquor dealers
or agents, was favorably reported by
the house postoffice committee at
Washington. It is aimed at the so
called mail order liquor business in
dry territory. In North Dakota and
number Of other dry states it has
been unlawful for years for newspa-
pers to publish liquor advertisements,
yet the mails have been filled with
tempting literature pertaining to
Green River and other favorite brands.
The government has no more right to
carry such advertisements than the
newspapers have to print them.

One of the best evidences of pros
perity throughout the state is the fact
that very seldom does one see a mort
gage foreclosure notice published. A
few years ago the newspapers were
filled with these notices while today
they are nearly as scarce as contest
notices and notices of final proof. In
Ward county, a few years ago, one
employee was kept busy at the sher-
ifs office attending to matters per-
tanning to the foreclosure Of mort
cages. Today there is scarcely any
work of this nature. The farmers and
other businessmen of the state have
either been able to pay up their mort
cages or they are whiting them
down in a satisfactory manner.

has increased, and in many localities
the aggregate values have far ex-
