MAKE PROTEST. !.
ON HOUSE BILL
THAT CUTS LEVY
City Officials and School
Board Want Frazier to
Veto Proposed Measure.

Protesting against House Bill Is.
Secretary F. F. Burchard of the
Grand Forks school board this morn-
ing wired to Governor Lynn j. Frazier,
appealing for an extensive considera-
ton of the measure before it is
signed. City Auditor Charles Even
son is now at Bismarcks representing
the city in protesting ths same meas
ure. -
AS originally drawn House Bill rs
limits the tax levy for 1921 to the
average levy assessed during the last
three years. This. officials point out.
is certain to create a hardship, both
on municipalities and school districts.
In presenting their arguments for the
defeat of the measure they maintain
that during the war period every eff
fort was made to reduce the levies in
order that the burden of, taxation
thereby placing taxpayers in a posi-
ton to offer greater support to the
nation in the appeals for financial
support.
Held Levies Down.
In explanation Of this, Secretary
Burchard stated today that three
years 6 the Grand Forks school dis
trict held the levy down to 800, 900,
and depended upon temporary loans
and local financial support to carry
them through. Last year the levy
was fixed at $121,0 900. which is said
to be under the amount that was ac-
tually needed for the conduct Of the
school system. No surplus was &C
cumulated during these years and the
school district has been operated on
a particularly close basis. officials say.
However. If the clause. which permits
school districts to levy 80 per cent
more than the three year average,
is permitted to stand, the school board
will not be greatly affected as that
Will mean that only a cut Of approx
lmately $4,000 will be made in their
proposed levy Of $4,000. Without
this 80 per cent, the cut will be in
the neighborhood of $4,000.
Cities Hit Hardest
The 80 per cent exception made
does not affect the municipalities,
however, leaving the towns and cities
in an even worse ~predicament than
the schools. Governor Frazier is now
in conference with representatives of
various cities. and it is understood
that many protests are being received
at the capitol which nay result in
the veto Of the measure.
IT h bill passes, containing the
amendments which it is now reported
to contain. serious injury will be done
10 the local school system. Grand
Forks educators say. Cuts must be
made in every department and a dan
serous program of economy must be
carried out that will tend to weaken
the organization throughout, board
members declare.

ONLY BIG CROP
 IN ARKANSAS
Ihe Highland Orchard The Only One h The State That Will Produce Good Crop of Peaches.

Little Rock, July 10.--Arkansas peach crop this year has been report ed to be almost complete failure, due to late frostsin practically al parts of the state-yet one section will have shipped more than 600 cars of this fruit by the middle of this month. This section is in the southwestern part of the state, radiating from the huge Johnson peach orchard at Highland in Pike county.
 Arkansas ordinarily stands fourth l nthe production of peaches, but be- cause of the late cold spells of the past spring the big production section, northwest Arkansas, will ship no pea cnes at all The total crop this year

BIG CORN CROP
 IN ARKANSAS
Rice Reduced, Melons Good. This State Ranks Next to California as a Cantaloupe Producer With an esti- mated Shipment of 1400 Cars.

The salient features of the July crop report just issued by Charles S. Bou- ton. statistician. and Jim c. Ferguson, commissioner of agriculture for the Arkansas cooperative crop reporting service. are the fine prospective corn crop. which promises to be next to the largest on record; the increase in both Irsih and sweet potatoes: the decrease in rice acreage. amounting to 38 per cent. and the prospects for cantaloupcs and watermelops.
 It will be also not.l that in com. parison with a month ago there has been a slight improvement in the con- dition of most crops.
 Partially offsetting the shrinkage of over 9OOOO acres in the state's cotton crop. there has been gall of 401 .00O acres in the corn op. In other words Arkansas farmers have increased the corn acreage by 1T per cent. making the total now in cultivation, 2.TG1 GOO acres. The condition )f 20 is some seven points higher thaa the teu-year acreage and ten points an've that of last year. It indicates yield of twenty-two bushels per acre and to- tai production of 60, ,746,O0O bushels. If realized. 1t will be the second largest corn crop in the history of the state, or next to that of 1917.
 The state apparently has an in crease of 15 per cent in sweet potatoes. The approximate planted acreage is 57. 300. While it is too early to make reliable forecast of production, the reported condition of 89 per cent iYl- 6icates theoretically yield of 1O6 bushels pc racre and total production of 6.95,OOO bushels.
 The cut i nthe rice crop is drastic, amounting to 36 per cent. The acre age in 1920 was the largest in the his tory of the state. amounting to 1S9,OOO planted acres. This year the amount seeded is 121 1000. The condition figure indicates a yield of fl 1-3 bushels to the acre and total production of 5OO1 900 bushels.
 The cantaloupe crop condition has improved remarkably. owing to season able rains and good growing weather, It now looks as if the 1O6OO acres In the state would produce between 1900 and 1.4OO carloads, but this depends somewhat upon marketing conditions and the percentage of the crop that will be gathered.
 With good returns the crop will be picked close, but with low prices much may be left in the fields. Arkansas now ranks second place in cantaloupes, California being first. Shipments are now moving.-Four Statse Press.

will be but one-fifth or 20 per cent of normal. The few growers in the South western part of the state, however, whose peaches escaped killing frosts and who gave their orchards careful attention, sprayed their trees and took other precautions, expect to realize a handsome profit
 The early peaches began to move to the market about June l and the Ell berta shipments began on July l. The peach movement is expected to be practically complete by the middle of this month, while the biggest orchard, that at Highland, completed its ship ment of 4S5 cars yesterday.
