TINE TO JOIN HANDS FOR
NORTH DAKOTA

Observers making the trip on
the Red Trail from the Minnesota
state line through to Dickinson,
report a wonderful crop outlook at
the present time. Green wheat
fields are commencing to turn a
light yellow shade and rye cutting
has already started. Every kind
OF grain crop now presents beau
tiful picture, and as far as known,
no real damage has been done by
black rust. That plant disease,
and hail, are now the only agen-
Cies that might cause some loss
of the yield. If nothing out of the
ordinary occurs within the next
two weeks, or even less. the grain
crops of North Dakota will be
practically saved.
From any elevation in the state,
wonderful panorama of fields OF
waving green, clumps of trees
surrounding farm houses, and
hcnds of cattle grazing in pastures.
is presented to the eye. 1t reveals
an aspect of prospective and pro-
ductive wealth, and beautiful
farm home locations, that cannot
be excelled in any state in the
union. For many miles in every
direction the same vista Of waving
fields of grain, including great
patches OF fax now in blue dress,
fields of growing corn and red and
sweet clover in blossom, can be
seen.
In short time the green pros
pect will be changed to golden
hue. The fields OF standing grain
will be converted into immense
areas of yellow shocks of wheat,
oats and barley, dotting the land
scape an endless perspective. 1t
will then remain for the thresher
to complete the final picture In
disclosing some of the results OF

wonderful crops of this state.

A TREMENDOUS SERVICE

The effective manner in which
the Fargo Clearing House Associ-
alton met the emergency created
'by the condition of the accounts
OF the Northern National Bank,
disclosed to the association on last
Friday by directors of the bank,
will 20 a long way in continuing
the confidence the people of Far
go. as we'll as the people of this
entire section, have in the Fargo
BE- hiking situation.
Today, depositors of the North
err National Bank, threatened for
a time with the possible loss of at
least a part of their funds, are
assured against such loss; the
whole banking situation has been
Stabilized, and the confidence the
public previously had in the local
banks and the Fargo Clearing
House association, is greatly en-
HANGED.
Between last Friday at p. m,
when the directors of the Northern
National Bank called the attention
Of the Fargo Clearing House Asso-
citation to the situation and about
2 a. M, today, there were almost
continuous sessions of the mem
bers of the association, to the end
that a settlement might be per-
fected that would result in the
saving of the Northern National
Bank. which resultant benefit, not
alone to the depositors and stock
holders of that institution, but to
the unmeasured benefit Of the
whole community.
How we'll the association did Its
work. and how unreservedly the
members of the association devot-
ed themselves to the task in hand.
is evidenced by the announcement
that was contained In the extra
edition of The Fargo Tribune,
published early today. of the
merger of the Northern National
Bank with the Security National
Rank, coupled also with the affili-
alton of the Security National
Bank with the Northern Trust
Company. BY this arrangement a
new banking combination with
fcotings in excess OF three mil
lions OF dollars IS established in
Fargo.
Fargo. as we'll as the whole
State of North Dakota. has reason
to feel renewed confidence in the
whole banking situation as re-
suit of the action that has been
taken during the past 70, hours in
Fargo. The effectiveness and
promptness with which the situa-
ton was met must be reassuring.
1t has demonstrated conclusively
that the failure OF this or that
bank officer to live up to the trust
imposed in him will not be per-
mitted to result to the detriment OF
the depositors, or to the business
life OF the community as a whole.
The Fargo Clearing House Asso-
citation. an organization made no
OF all of the commercial and saw
ings bank. of Fargo, has done its
work we'll. It has performed a
tremendous service, the benefits OF
which will be more lasting that is
even now realized.-Fargo Forum.
