Plan For Handling
Land Prices In Minot
Vicinity Is Approved

MAnot. N. D.. March 11.-Land in
the vicinity of Minot which is offered
Tor sale to new settlers through the
real estate bureau of the Minot Asso-
clat1on OF, Commerce will be listed in
the associations office and the prices
approved by disinterested commits
tee to be appointed by the board of
directors Of the Minot Association of
Commerce, it was decided at the meet
ing OF the board yesterday. Commits
slons on land thus listed are to be not
more than II an acre, it Is announced.
/ Under the plan worked out, owners
Of land will be asked to list their land
with the association any time between
March Is and April IS. All listings
practically amount to an option on
the land until that date. This will
give added assurance to prospective
!. settlers that there will be no mount
ing of land prices when the expected
! influx into northwestern North Da-
kota begins. This list will be at the
disposal of new settlers or any other
parties desiring to purchase land, but
before land is placed on the Associ-
alton of Commerce list, the price and
terms of sale must be ratified by the
disinterested committee which will be
named by the board of directors.
Members of the real estate bureau of
Tie ASSOCiatlOn OIL commerce aSrceu
at their meeting to list their land and
the same opportunity will be afforded
owners of land who do not belong to
the bureau.
"It is the intention of the Associ-
alton of Commerce to throw every
protection around the prospective
settler" w. E. Borene, Il member Of
the associations immigration COM
! mittee. declared in discussing the
plan. 1--WE want more settlers in this
| vicinity and the idea of having the
prices of land SO listed ratified by a
disinterested committee and commits
sions fixed at such low figure as 81
an acre should appeal to all. All
owners of land near Minot which is
for sale are urged to list their land

If by reason of his disability the
veteran is prevented from following
his regular line of work he will be
granted vocational training in any
line of work in which he has chance
to become efficient. He may take
training at either some school or on
the job through actual experience. and
will be paid $50 per month. and in
some districts whore living is high.
such as here, 500 per month until
the training is completed. providing
it does not require more tnan 1our

A great injustice was done to the

and erroneous statements.

animation, made an affidavit that As

the untruthful statements signed by

In the short time I have handled

$225.0O has been collected and paid
and discounts.
The banks total reserve today is
over *160,000 in excess Of the bank

The Cash in Vaults" reserve is
many Thousands in excess OF twice
the amount required by the banking
department.
The hank is in good liquid condi-
ton. with aggregate assets of nearly
one and a half millions.
It is not only solvent with its capi-

in addition accumulated profits Of
