 Yuma Ariz Oct Y, 1917. Dear Sir:
 This is addressed to the Yuma Valley farmers, only to find out their wishes in regard to building drainage ditch to drain the water table of the Yuma valley.
 Do you favor postponing digging the drainage ditch until such time as it is needed? Sign here .......................... Are you in favor of digging it now?
 By postponing the digging of the drainage ditch it means a saving to you of $500 per acre, which was added to the construction charge.
 Are you in favor of draining the flood waters of the lagoons but not the water table?

Is the garage putting the shoe shop
out of business? Has the advent of the
automobile sent the pegging cobbler to
hunt some other trade at which to
make living? Have rubber tires sup
planted rubber heels and leather cush-
ions leather soles?
A local cobbler, sticking to his
last" is inclined to believe that the
automobile has done much to decrease
the profits of his trade but he will not
go so far as to predict that he and his
fellow laborers will be forced entirely
out of business. He does accuse the
automobile, however, of contributing
to the general spirit of wastefulness
that pervades the country, waste
which directly affects him and his
work.
do you realize that in North Da-
kota, for instance, there Is an auto
mobile for every tNR persons?" he be-
gan What does tll1s mean? Simply,
that people who formerly walked are
now riding. Which means that there
is less business for the cobbler be-

of the convention will be held begin
ming at o'clock on the afternoon OF
Tuesday, July 10.
Out of the total of S66 banks and
trust companies operating in North
Dakota, sos are members Of the North
Dakota Bankers association. These
figures show a gain of 73 in the num-
Der of banking institutions in the
state and a gain of 8S in membership
since the last convention. Member
ship dues collected for the year end
ing June amounted to $7,s62.25.
BuraIaries Total $6,28324.
Secretary Macfadden in his report
calls attention to three successful
bank burglaries In the state as fol-
lows, the amounts being taken totalling
$6,283.24: First State bank at Eek
Aug. 80, loss $4,000; bank at Melville,
Sept 2S, loss $2,967.54, and Guelph
State bank, Oct. 23, loss $315.70.
when one considers that the North
Dakota Bankers Mutual Casualty
company has collected in premiums
for insurance and commissions on
reinsurance $22, since its organ
ization, the losses sustained SO far
have not hurt it very badly" says the
report, which adds further that the
members of the association are rapid
ly replacing the kind Of safes that are
robbed with new modern safes and 1t
is hoped that this good work will go
on. Secretary Macfadden says that
recent burglaries in the south with
the killing of two good citizens IN
addition to two Of the "yeggs" is q
fair example of what may happen If
bankers trust their valuables in a safe
which is attractive to ''yeggs. He
cautions the bankers of the state dur
ing the summer and fall months to
prevent successful daylight hold
ups.
Seven successful group meetings
were held during the months of May
and June being at Mayville in the
Third district, Grand Forks in the
northeastern district; Devils Lake in
ern district; Beach, Missouri Slope
district; Lisbon, Fourth district, and
Darlington, Fifth district.
Touching on group insurance, plan
of life insurance by which an employ
er can provide for insurance on the
lives of group Of employees in amounts
equal to the annual salary or earnings
OF each employe, the secretary says
the plan has recently been broadened
to take in groups Of bank employees,
such as employees Of a large city bank
or all employees OF members Of a state
bankers association, and a contract
has been entered into with the Ma
tional Life Insurance company Of
Minneapolis, which now makes 1t
possible for employees of member
banks OF the North Dakota Bankers
association to receive the benefits OF
this insurance.
Book Of Opinions.
One hundred and thirty seven writ
ten opinions have been furnished

Engerud of Fargo, during the year,

ganization started, have been re-
edicted, dndexed and published In book
form. These books will be distributed
to subscribers as rapidly as possible.
Between 500 and 500 copies have been
ordered, many orders coming from
Minnesota and South Dakota, and a
few from Montana. The book will
contain S44 opinions, covering almost
any question that could possibly
arise in the everyday business Of a

the prevalence of waste indicated more
plainly than in the use of shoes. Now
adays the patch is considered disgrace
full. A half sole is almost badge OF
poverty. The stitch in time is never

men are especially extravagant. They
want new shoes, not mended ones.
