$1,500,OOO FOR
u. s. SEED LOAN
Must Be Made Before
May First, at Grand Forks, N.
D., Office. Loans Are For
Farmers Only.

The Government Seed Loan is now
available and farmers should call at
their banks in their local towns for
application blanks or at the county
agents office. The United States
Department of Agriculture has estab-
lished branch office in Grand Forks,
North Dakota and all seed grain work
will be handled through that office and
the checks mailed direct to the farn-
ers. The method of making applica-
ton and the signing of crop lien and
public voucher willbe the same as last
year. The signing of note requiring
revenue stamp will be required and
the farmers are requested to bring
revenue stamps with them. Stamps
may be purchased at any post office.
Object of Loan
Loans will be made to farmers for
the purchase Of SEED ONLY. The
loan does not include feed. The loan
WILDE made for the purchase Of seed
wheat, oats, barley and flax. The
application will be accompanied by
promissory note and SEED LIEN.
To Whom Made
The Government Seed Loan is for
the actual farmers, and farmers who
have no other business. The loan is
for farmers who had crop failure
last year and have no seed on hand
and are unable in any other manner
to finance the purchase Of seed for
1922 crop. No loans are to be made
for any other purpose or to any other
class of farmers whatever than those
mentioned in this paragraph. Crop
failure will be considered as meaning
yield of less than five bushels per
acre OF wheat and the equivalent in
other crops. Preference will be given
to the small farmer and to men using
the best farming methods. Farmers
having stock and summer fallow will
have better chance of getting a loan
than strict grain farmer.
Amount of Loan
The maximum loan to any one farm
er or to one family will be three hum
dred dollars. The loan is made on
the basis of $1.5O per acre, although
this amount will not be made when
cost of seed per acre does not reach
that figure.
Number of Loans
Due to the fact that only one and
half million dollars are appropriated
and the demand in other states viii
be far greater than in the past it will
be necessary to confine each loan tc
the absolute minimum and to confine
loans only to those who fully meet
the requirements.
The seed loan act did not become a
law until March 20, 1922 when the
president signed the law.
False statements in making appli-
cation may be punished by fine or
Imprisonment or both.
No applications will be received
after May 1, 1922.
Only bona-fide farmers having no
other business than farming may bor-
row.

Enters Race For Senate r

In letters to Montana friends the
past week Congressman Carl w. Rid
dick has definitely announced his in
tention of entering the race for the
Republican nomination for United
States Senator at the coming pri-
maries.
Congressman Riddick is serving
his second term in congress from the
second Montana district, and is the
most active representative the state
has ever had, being an indefatigable
worker and tireless advocate of the
interests of Montana. It has been
generally understood for some time
that Mr.. Riddick would make the race
for the senate, as his inquiry Of the
republican voters of the state has
been through open letters and the re-
suits were such as to justify him in
coming out. Mr.. Riddick stands strong
in the second district, which is the
republican district of the state, car
rying the district by some thirty
thousand votes in the last election
and leading the ticket and the re-
publican governor by more than 5000
votes.
Other republican candidates men
toned as possibilities are State Sem
ator John E. Edwards of Rosebud
county, who has a host of friends
urging his candidacy, but who has
made no announcement of any sort
as yet; Attorney General Wellington
D. Rankin of Missoula, who will prob
ably go, and DR.. 0. M. Lanstrum of
Helena, who made the race in the
last senatorial battle, being defeated
in the finals by T. ]. Walsh. Another
man frequently mentioned is Judge
George M. Bourquin of the federal
court, but Judge Bourquin himself is
not joining in the mention, and his
closest friends state that he will not
be in it.
For the democrats, Senator Henry
L. Myers, whose term expires, is a
probable candidate, although he has
not yet announced. Senator Myers
made the campaign in the last cleo
tion against the non-partisan COM
bination which had captured the dem
ocratic party of the state, and B. X.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY IS
HIT OF The SEASON
Nothing But The Truth" Plays to
Crowded House and Wins Uni
versal Praise.

The giving of the Senior class play
is always considered one of the big
events in the high school year, and is
looked forward to with the keenest
expectation on the part of the stu
dents and patrons of the school. For
the past few years both the junior
and senior classes have been putting
on plays in such splendid manner
that a standard of high excellence has
been established, and each succeeding
class has endeavored to reach, and
even surpass, this high standard set.
1t was gratifying to note that the
senior class Of 1922 who appeared in
Nothing But The Truth, at the high
school auditorium Tuesday evening,
was more than able to qualify in their
rendition of the above mentioned
play. The selection of the cast was
an exceptionally happy one and spe-
cial mention should be made of each
member in his Interpretation of the
role assigned him.
The audience was able to grasp the
story of the play from the moment
the curtain rose upon the scene. in
a brokers' office, as the first act. to
the closing scene in country home,
in the last act, and all of the thrills
and laughter promised, were fully
realized.
The wait between acts was made
enjoyable by the high school orchestra
playing two selections, "The Trump
ter's March" and "The Daw1. CT
Beauty" in a most pleasing manner.
The play as whole was teemins
with an extraordinary amount of en-
barrassing complications and suggest
ed the moral that even the truth must
be handled with lot of diplomacy.
Great credit is due Miss Faith
Downs, as director of the play, and
the ability of the cast was more clear

of heart trouble. Mr.. Crawford had
been in poor health for more than
two years and had been obliged to
retire from his position as expert ac-
countant several months ago. His
condition the past winter, however,
seemed so much improved that his
family and friends were hopeful Of
his recovery and his sudden death
came as shock.

Bellows Falls, Vermont, on August
31st, 1859 and was past sixty-two
years of age at the time Of his death,
and had been a resident of Glasgow
for more than sixteen years. Mr..

two o'clock. The remains were then
escorted to the Episcopal church, by

regalia, and the Royal Neighbor lodge
in a body, where the ritualistic funeral
service of the Episcopal church was
conducted by Rev. Frost, resident rec
tor. Rev. ]. L. Christler of Havre,
who is also Sir Knight, gave most
eloquent and touching eulogy of the
deceased as a part of this service
Numerous and beautiful floral contri-
buttons from relatives, friends and
the various Masonic bodies were in
evidence and appropriate music was
furnished by vested choir.
The office for the burial of the
dead was read by the priest in charge
who met the casket and mourners
at the church door, preceding he
slowly marched up the aisle reading
the appropriate sentences from the
first part of the office. When the
casket came to the foot Of the chance
steps, St. Matthew's choir rendered
perfectly their beautiful funeral hymn
"Now The Laborers Task Is Ger"
and one of the psalms being chantec
gave just that sense of solemn grief
mingled with an assurance of joy that
the churches service is noted for.
The Rev. Prelate of the Glasgow
Consistery of Knights Templars wa:
invited by the Rector to deliver
short address, after which the service
was concluded by the choir singing
''On the resurrection morning"

service of the Knights Templar con
clave, of which Mr.. Crawford was {
member, was exemplffied at the grave
for the first time in the history O.

tion to this service also, as chaplain
added much to it's beauty and solemn
ity. Interment was made in Higl
Land cemetery.

MEDICAL SCIENTISTS
Will VISIT STATES

Toxic, Sept. 1.-THE Minister of
Education on behalf of the japanese
government has accepted an invita-
ton from DR.. George E. Vincent
president of the Rockefeller Founda-
ton of New York, tic name and send a
commission of Japanese medical
scientists to visit the medical institu-
tions of the United States and Canada
as the guests of the Rockefeller Foun-
dation.
The idea originated with DR.. Vim
cent who was in the Far East some
time ago in connection with the activ-
tiles of the Rockefeller Foundation in
China and was prompted partly by
the success that attended the visits
to America of similar commission
from Great Britain, Brazil and Bel
GUM.
The invitation, transmitted by
Baron Shidehara, Japanese Ampassa-
dor in Washington suggests that the
commission should consist of four or
five men, well known as representa-
tive of the important branches of
| medical science and OF the principal
| medical universities and institutes or
the country; that this commission
would be the guests of the Rockefel-
Ter Foundation from the time it leaves
shores; and that the spring OF 1923
would be the most suitable time for
this visit, which should last for about
three months.
The Minister of Education, in &C
cepting the invitation, expressed his
approval of the suggestions and un-
dertook to select a commission that
could claim to be truly representative
of japanese medical science.
