CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE TO BE A
SUCCESS.
Workers Are Enthusiastic-All Rec
M ords To Be Broken

All records will be broken in the
Christmas Seal Sale put on by the
North Dakota tuberculosis Associa-
ton, commencing ov. oath, in the
opinion Of those who have studied the
situation, and it is anticipated that
every person in the state will buy the
Christmas Seals and Health Bonds.
People have nov come to realize
that in buying Christmas Seals they
are not giving anything. They are
merely buying health insurance for
themselves and families, and the
hristmas Seal Sale should not be
,nsidered in the nature Of drive to
'aise money for unfortunates across
the seas, for it is nothing of the kind.
There isn't man, woman or chil.'
in North Dakota who isn't in danger
of contracting tuberculosis so long as
there are people in the state who have
the disease, and it is to cure those
who already have it<and prevent oth-
ers from having it that this money is
being raise. rs
Every penny a person pays out for
Christmas Seals is just that much Of
guarantee against himself or some
dear one being caught in the clutches
of the Great White Plague.
North Dakota was away down the
line last year in the sale Of Christmas
Seals. It is felt that the state will
make a better showing this year.

By unanimous vote the body de-
cided to hold county fair in the fall
of 1922. But whether to buy or lease
a site for the purpose was left to the
judgment of the executive committee
who will function as the fair commit
tee. The Emmons County Breeders
Association who has during the past
two seasons put on very creditable
shock show at Hazelton will throw all
its efforts into the fair proposition
and it is expected the south part Of
the county will come in too and thus
make this real County affair. Lin
! ton is the most centrally located coun-
ty seat in the state. With the extern
sion of the highway south it will be
the most accessible county seat of
any in the state as far as good roads
are concerned. The fair is assured.

COTTON PRODUCTION.
SMALLEST IN rs YEARS

Washington, July 1.-Cotton produc-
ton this year promises to be the
smallest of the last quarter of CEN
tury. Today's forecast by the depart
ment of agriculture placed the crop
at eight million four hundred thirty
three thousand bales. nearly five mil
Ion bales smaller than last year and
about eight million below the record
crop of 1914. This years acreage is
2s.4 per cent. smaller than last year s..
"A cotton crop of S433. 600 equivalent
500 pound bales this year was forecast
today by the department of agriculture
basnE its estimate on the area under
cultivation June 25 which was twenty
six million five hundred nineteen
thousand acres and the condition OF
the crop on that date which was e9-
per cent of a normal.
The preliminary estimate of acreage
and the condition on June 70 by states
includes: TeSas-nine million one hun
dred ninety nine thousand seventy
two; California-one hundred thirty
one thousand and seventy seven: Ari-
zona-eighty-ni nine thousand and eighty
eight. New Mexico-fifteen Thousand
and eighty-s seven; Lower California 3
area about fifty-nine thousand acres,
is included in the California figures
but excluded from the L. s. total.
The condition of the crop on May %
this year was Sc per cent of normal
The production last year was 1886, I54,
equivalent 500 pound bales. the re
vised area in cultivation year ago
was s7,0iS. 900 acres and the condition
of the crop June Is last year was 7o.I
per cent of a normal.
In 1919 the crop was IL 42o.I equivs-

The acreage this year is the smallest
since 1900 and never before, the de
partment said. has there been SO great
a change from one yenr TO another in
acreage as there has been from last
year to this year.
The condition OF the growing crcD
has not in twenty years been SO low on

his brand and his dreams of life in
the open, as a cattle king, were very
gratifying.
Then came the overthrow OF Pornro
Diaz and the temporary rule OF Fran

Stewart. for he was a warm personal
friend of Madero and knew that no
could thrive unmolested with MadeRo

But Stewart had overlooked ons
thing. Poncho villa and his band OF

how could they get It better than by
