SEES OPPOSITION
TO PLANS. TO CUT
WHEAT ACREAGE

Fargo, N. D., Feb. 1S.-The resolu-
ton advocating a II per cent decrease
in the wheat acreage Of the state,
adopted at the recent annual meeting
of the North Dakota Farm bureau
here, is under fire. according to II.
3. Fuller, state secretary of the or
~ganization. He says hat a Milwaukee
newspaper comments on the resolu-
ton which also calls for a greater
corn acreage, and remarks that while
farmers in the corr states are calling
for reduction in corn acreage, the
North Dakota farmers take an op-
posite stand.
The language of the resolution is
that h federation "favorS Il substi-
tuition of other crops such as forage,
corn and potatoes, for wheat
North Dakota has been raising SO
little corn hat it has had to ship it
in for feeding,f says Mr.. Fuller in de-
Tending the resolution. with the
high freight rates prevailing, this is
an expensive business and only own
ers of blooded took will be able to
afford it.. If the farmers would raise
more of it, this expense would be
dispensed with and the state would
have enough corn to go around. This
would make for better dairying con
ditions.
"None of the corn raised here would
get into the market to compete with
that raised by the farmers of Illinois
and Iowa"
The resolution is a constructive one
and aims for greater Investigation of
crops, something sthe state greatly
needs. he added,

WAY SOUGHT TO
GET MONEY FOR
NEWBULDNGS
Board Of Administration
Asked To Aid Plans. For
Institutions

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 18.-Because
the Industrial. Commission has been
able to make progress towards h
cashing of hail, warrants, held by the
farmers Of the state, the board of.ad-
m~inistrationa has turned to it, asking
it to seek some method Of raising the
moneys appropriated for new build
ings at state institutions by the legis-
latures of 1919 and 1921. AS q means
to this end, the board. Of administra-
ton suggests the, finding Of some f.
nancial organization which will buy
up delinquent tax certificates, thus
paying the taxes and turning the
money into the state treasury. The
request to the Industrial commission
was made about the first Of this
month.
Although the general financial
condition is serious" says the board
in it's letter, land must be recognized
in connection with all business mat
tiers, it appears, nevertheless, as if the
time to do building work is right now,
when labor can be secured cheaply,
materials are at acceptable levels,
n industrial life is virtually at a
standstin. From an economic stand
point, no time would seem more op-
perfume thai the present when assist
ance by the state in contributing it's
proportionate share towards the
maintenance of industrial activity will
nave a more wholesome effect.
Schedule Given.
The appropriations with the
amount expended from each was pre-
sented in a schedule filed with the
letter.

In explaining the magnitude of tAo

meanwhile the development of the
state has been such that the need for

condition Of old and young in all. parts
of the state by school and county

an enlarged population for the insti-

tives. Even with new buildings added

past biennium, their real need for

People Are Saving
Their Money Now, Say
N. D. Business Men

Fargo, N. D.. Feb. 1S.-vPeople are
saving their honey So say the bank
ers here and the restaurant men n
keepers of motion picture houses sad
ly agree with them.
The teller at the savings deposits
window of q large bank was ques-
toned regarding conditions.
$40, people haven't quit saving
since times became q. little tighter"
she said. ION the contrary they are
saving more than they did during the
flush years Immediately following the
war. We are getting more new ac-
counts all the time"
= One banker after. another substan-
tiated the statement.
The manager of one of the large
self-service restaurants had the same
story to tell in a different way.
People used to order what they
wanted, throw down the money, eat
half Of what they had ordered and
rush out" he said. Now they stand
at. the counter and study the cards
overhead to see how they can order
the cheapest meal. When they get
through, eating they are apt to linger
at the table a while talking. That is
because they aren't as busy as they
were when business was better"
i Motion picture men also reported
less business but insisted that things
would brighten up in the spring.
"Just now a lot Of people have had
their wages CUT said w. c. Clavier.
manager of one of the largest motion
picture houses in the state. Even
the best movie fans don't come in as
often as they use to. When building
starts up and other activities are re-
vived in the spring, business will be
better. People are sort of skeptical
about the value of a dollar and as to
whether it is going as far as it ought
to go. There has been so much said
and written about saving money that
even those who have it to spend are
intent on saving it,"

In commenting upon the $1,172,-
621.34 necessary for the completion
Of the projects planned by the last
legislature the board of administra-
ton says:
Way Must Be Found.
Judging from the present condi-
tons of the state finances, it seems
quite unlikely that sufficient funds
will be collected by the state auditor
to cover this expense n that some
other means OF supply will have to
be made available if the board of ad-
ministration is to perform its duty of
carrying out the various projects with
which it has been charged with the
legislature. In the past. the Bank Of
North Dakota has, from time to time.
made loans to the institutions under
the control Of the, board of admins
tration and thereby made possible the
continuation of the work to be done
at the various institutions, even when
state. funds were at very low ebb. 1t
