cial n business conditions are con-
tanned in the March statement of the

ures show that the living cost for a
family of three in Grand Forks is
about the same as for the same fam
lily in Minneapolis. Duluth and lower
than for the same family in Helena,

ment:

Local Man Receives Orders from
Scotland and Other Points. for
Quantities of Product Grown Here.

That Grand Forks county's agri-
cultural industries are widely known,
and that advertising brings full re-

local resident, within the last day or
two, with the receiving of an order
for a quantity of sweet clover seed to
be shipped to Scotland. The order
was received and filled by a local
man, who farms on an extensive
scale. and who had advertised rather
widely a large mount of sweet
clover seed which he had for sale.
Orders for various quantities of the
seed have been received by the same
individual from ~ parts of the
country, including British Columbia.
and some extreme southern and cast
ern points.
The consignment of clover seed
sent to Scotland was ordered by a
nursery firm, which will give the
sweet clover a trial to test it's sue
