NORTH DAKOTA A DAIRY STATE.

have no complaint to make prOvldhg
he has the max.
NORTH DAKOTA A DAIRY STATE.
This section of North Dakota
sometimes produces . bumper crop. 1t
generally produces fair average crop
and sometimes the Fates decree that
the crops be below the average. We
never draw blank. This has been the
history of western North Dakota ever
since the white man came out here
and drove off the buffalo and supplant-
ed the Indians. It will ever be such
and there is no use for anyone try
ing to camoufage this fact.
Good farming always pays in North
Dakota, as it does everywhere else,
and q man probably gets better re-
turns for the extra work he does on
his land in North Dakota than he does
in some other localities. Many farm
ers long ago learned that it does not
pay to slight their work and where
they take gamblers chance in put
ting in their crops in slip shod man
ner, nine, times out of ten he fails to
produce much Of . crop.
Land values will not increase much
from the production Of crops alone but
what is making northwestern North
Dakota rich and what will make US
one Of the wealthiest states in the
Union, is dairying. 1t took our farm
ers generally quite long time to get
into the dairying game, but there are
mighty few Of them who are not milk
ing number of cows. There are few
lines of business that will beat dairy
ing in North Dakota, when one con-
siders the present high price of but
ter. milk, cream and cheese, together
with the natural adaptibility of our
soil for this line of endeavor. We
grow the richest varieties of hay in
the United States. Our native grass
is most nutritious and then we seldom
fail to produce an abundance of corn
for our silos. Besides, there's the
bronze grass, western rye grass, alfal-
ia, sweet clover, millet, etc. Any
farmer who has made money during
the past three years will tell you
that his cows have done the trick. We
simply must adopt dairying methods
and diversity more if we want to be
successful on our North Dakota
farms. We tried the straight grain
farming altogether too long.

French Government Bank

PARIS, Oct. ls-Deposits in French

34o 100000 francs 1858 900 600 last
year. according 70 figures just given
out the statistica department. the
deposit balances at the end of the year
total!ing 3,58o,000 900 francs (s70t.-
600 000). This gain has been largely
surpassed this year the increase for
the first nine months being $50 600 900
rancs $3.50, 600 -00Ol, eclipsing all
records in the operation OF the govern
ment savings institutions, in spite Of
the fact Of heavy Withdrawals made for
investment in Treasury bonds, which
aw tie hie est interest and VIII ch
are still selling at the rate of a billion
francs month.
These figures appear to refute the
theory advanced late Y that the high
cost of living in France is due largely
to the fact that the people are beconn-
ing reckless spenders under the infiu-
ence OF a p.enitude Of money. AL
classes, no doubt, are spending more
for luxuries as well as for necessities.
The working men particu arly are in
dulglng IN certain things the were not
accustomed to before their wages were
doubled but the bank figures seem to
show that they also are saving more
and apparently maintaining the same
proportion between outlay and income
as before their Increase in wages.
