CROPPED along through the dark pas

~~-O~~~~-o-~~-~~~-o~~~~-~-
nitrates manufactured for war ex-
plosives.
But for three years it has stood
idle.
The entire plant, buildings and
equipment are useful only for one
purpose-production Of ammonium
nitrate.
In war time this nitrate, contain
ing 33 Per cent pure nitrogen, is
an essential in manufacturing high
explosives.
But in peace time the same plant
could supply the necessary nitrogen
content for fertilizer sufficient to en-
rich 100000 acres of land an
nually.
Government operation of the plant
has been blocked on the ground that
it would be paternalistic, would put
the government into competition with
private industry.
Thus, while farmers have been
paying high prices for fertilizers or
letting their land go without and
city workers have had TO pay top
notch prices for foodstutffs, this
500 100000 plant has been accumu-
Iating dustsand cobwebs.
II is because of this situation that
the great mass of the people see in
the offer of Henry Ford to lease the
nitrate plant, along with the Muscle
Shoals power development, a real
opportunity for the public to benefit.
Ford's offer of $5,000,000 for
plant which is now white elephant
on the governments hands, is the
smallest factor. The big factor from
the public viewpoint is that the plant
would be operated in the production
of fertilizers and the output sold at
prides to net more than per cent
profit.
The public which owns the plant,
thus would receive in the lower price
of its product and presumably in the
lower price of agricultural products
to the city consumer, an offset to the
apparently trivial purchase price. A
high present sale price may be far
less desirable for the public than a
low price for the plants output over
long term of years.
The Ford offer, in addition to
guaranteeing capacity output of niv
trates for fertilizer uses, also pro-
vides for keeping the plant ready

Grafton Defeats WillistOn and Fargo
Beats Grafton

high school team went down to defeat
before Grafton at Riverside park in
Minot Friday afternoon, 20 to IA. Will
lston had been picked for the win
ners and the result proved sur
prise everywhere. Williston relied on
straight football during the first three
quarters of the game but failed to
make dent in Grafton's impregnable
line. Neither team put in sub
sttute. On account Of the cold and
icy condition Of the grounds, there
was more or less fumbling, but the
game was mighty interesting one to
watch. Williston would have been
conceded the state champions.
Fargo won the state championship
from Grafton at Fargo today by a
