Funny. but we haven't heard word
from the Valley City Times Record
since calling their attention to their
absolutely true" lie anent the salary
paid the manager of the Bank of
North Dakota which that paper de-
clared was $4,000 per month. Usual
ly the Times-Record man crawls pref
ty well and gives evidence of being a
master in the art if crawling into a
very small hole and turning around
in it. Perhaps in this case It is a
matter Of being unable to change the
meaning of figures following the. dol
lar sign as easily as one can explain
and change the meaning of figures Of
speech. On the other hand the "quiet"
is quite likely apart of the program

was clipped from the Toledo, WASH,
paper. In the Toledo article the SAL
airy of the manager was given as $780,
900 month and it asked if this was
correct. The editor Of the Times
Record knew this was wrong and in
tended to change it to $4,000 a year
and wrote his comment accordingly.

SAVE SUGAR IN CANNING FRUIT

SAVE SUGAR IN CANNING FRUIT
Along the streams and coulees in
North Dakota we have an abundance
of fruits, wild grapes, plums, buffalo
berries, June berries choke cherries,
wild gooseberries and currants.
The Home Demonstration agents in
North Dakota have worked out some
sugar-saving suggestions for the
housewives tested by the experiment
kitchen: Add one-quarter teaspoon
Of salt to each cup of fruit juice for
jelly or pulp for jam marmalade, and
conserve. In the case Of nonacid
fruit this makes the absence of the
full amount of sugar less noticeable.
The salty taste will disappear after:
the product has stood for few
weeks, but the flavor will be much
the richer for the addition of the
salt. Salt was so used in England
during the war, and the method sug-
gested was based on reports of the
process. .&
I With fruits of pronounced flavor,
or where lemon and orange peel or
spices are used for flavoring those
with mild flavor, various sirups take
the place of part of the granulated
sugar. Usually half and half is the
proportion used in substitution.

100000 interest in it. And the sworn
statements of the bank show that the
deposits of the Scandinavian bank
have dropped down to about $780,

management it had a million and q
half with no deposits from the North

Lemke insists it is in a splendid con-
dition, while claim it will be only
short time until the stockholders
of the bank will be willing to turn it
over to Cathro, Lemke or the state -
and l am speaking in all seriousness.
The above is not the only item Of
criminal management of the North
Dakota bank that is endangering a
big loss to the state, the destruction
of the farmers organization and the
discrediting of thousands of men like
yourself who have labored long and
hard to sustain your administration,
Withstand abuse, faced false! charges
and made enemies because of their
sincere and determined fight for the
organization and the original program
which is now about to be carried out. :"
Brinton is still telling the truth to
the people and the Courier News is
so busy trying to call attention to
other matters in order to camouage
the situation it has no time to take
up this matter. If the independent
press was lying about these matters
during all this time, surely Brinton
and the other league leaders must
have been lying, or else we have been
telling the truth?
Here is another rich extract from
the archives of the Townley bunch
who have been mismanaging the state
for the past few years. It would not
have cropped out had it not been for
the Brinton- Waters fight but it sub
Stimulates what the Independent vot-
ers association has claimed during the
campaign in regard to the disposition
of state money and what the indepen-
dent press has contended the state
bank has been doing. No,wonder the
governor and Townley do not want
the state auditor to examine the state
bank. Here is what Mr.. Brinton says
under his own signature:
another item of mismanagement
by Mr.. Cathro, and / presume with
Mr.. Lemke's approval, is the keeping
of from $4,000, 100000 to $4,000, 600. 90
of North Dakota Bank funds in the
Twin Cities, Chicago and New York
at per cent interest when North
Dakota banks are willing to pay and
are charged 4 per cent and farmers
10 per cent. The loss to the North
Dakota bank on this item alone is
around 500, 100000 a year in interest,
to say nothing of the loss to North
Dakota by taking this money away
from the local banks and out of the
state when it is so badly needed espec-
tally at this time of the year. And
the bank was organized to keep money
in the state. Mr.. Cathro has no ex-

cuse to offer for this discrimination
against our own people and our own
banks in favor Of the big eastern bank
ers. I do Snot charge Mr.. Cathro OF
Lemke, with receiving benefit from
eastern deposits but ] do charge that
he is incompetent, and if not incompe-
tent, or dishonest, has q lack Of judy
ment in this matter equal only to his
political insanity when he gratis his
meals, laundry and room rent off the
state-while receiving a higher sal
airy than you, governor, the supreme
court judges or any other official in
the state much to the discredit of your
administration"
This is part of a letter published in
the Courier-News under Brinton's sig
nature and addressed to the governor.
No wonder farmers Of the state can
not get any relief in monetary mat
tiers from the state bank. The money
is loaned to eastern parties at less
rate of interest and loses for the state
hundreds of thousands of dollars In
legitimate interest. These facts
coming from one of the leaders in this
great reform movement that has been
guaranteed to be the panacea for all
the ills of the farmer must be true,
because the, league leaders have been
saying that the Independent side of this
political fight have been lying. We
rather think that "Mr. Townley's go
home and lie like a damned horse
thief" is proving to be a boomerang.
The chickens are coming home to
roost. The Fargo morning paper is
giving some real inside dope to the
people that is the best political medi-
cine the Independents Of the state can

Wyoming has 1874 depositors per
1000 population in the national banks
of the state, according to statement
just goven out by the comptroller of
currency. This state leads all the
others, with Montana running second
with 349 per 1000 of population. For
the entire United States there were
1870 deposit accounts for each 1000 of
the population, or approximately one
national bank account for every IL
of the population. The banks in por-
tions of New England and in the
northern central portion of the coun-
try had the larger number of deposits
accounts on time. In the south, souh-
west and far west, demand deposit
accounts largely predominated. The
number of national banks in the state,
as given by the statement, from the
call issued for the condition of ma
tional banks on May 4, was 1872. The
number Of deposit accounts, both de-
mand and time, for each 1000 of pop
ulation are PIG, or over one-fifth. This
of course is national banks only, and
does not include a large number Of
state banks, which would naturally
strengthen that number considerable.

banks, or a reserve Of only 1925 ,0OO. 90

post alone, to say nothing about the
deposits placed in the bank by priv
ate individuals: or in other words if
the state should call for its. money,

the Cooperstown editor who has pre-
deliction for writing about everything,
including himself at great length in
stead of trying to point out to the peo-
pie Of Griggs county wherein they are
benefited by the present league pro-
gram, used up whole page of space
villifying us and accusing us Of de-
liberately lying and falsifying condi-
tons for political purposes. We did
not pay any attention to his article at
that time prefering to leave it alone
instead of stirring up more trouble.
There is where. we made big mis-
take. We should have righted this
wrong statement right them. It was
pure oversight on our part and we
take this occasion to say so at this
time. We had no intention to mis-
represent the facts in any way and
hope this explanation will ease the
mind of Bro. Nye and that our friends
will accept our statement as being
truthful rather than to the contrary
as implied by the league editor. We
have tried to be truthful at all times
and in the heat Of the late campaign
it was mighty easy to let mistake
like that slip by. The salary Of the
manager was $4,000 year but we
did tell the truth when we said that
in addition to that he .got his board
and meals paid for in addition by the
state. Will the Cooperstown editor
who has so persistently stuck to this
matter give this explanation place
in the Sentinel Courier. We neither
want to fool the people part Of the
time or any Of the time. They are be-
ing fooled bad enough by the league
newspapers right along.

on the average for the pre-war period
of 1911 to 1915-an increase of 137 per
cent IT is estimated that farm costs
increased so per cent during the war.
At this estimate the 1864 received In
the pre-war period had merely cover
ed the cost of production; one-half of
this amount, or S482, would represent
the incre 4se in cost of production In
1917. Subtracting this from the total
increase of S1,324, there is left an In
creased met profit of SS42, an amount
only S122 less than the average gross
earnings on a pre-war basis. In
Georgia, North Carolina and South
Carolina, the increase per farm was
less, while the percentage increase, 129
per cent, was about the same. The
average amount of improved land per
farm In this section was about thirty
seven acres. whereas in the three
Middle Western States is was eighty
six acres. The true increase In farm
prosperity, therefore. was not very diff
ferent in the two sections.
In typical Middle Atlantic States the
average increase was somewhat less.
Every section Of the country showed
a marked increase In the value of farm
crops. The advance was least in New
