Paddock. German newspaper critics
say the Americans were anything
but modest" in their financial re.

END CENSUS IN
3 COUNTIES
Healthy Increase in Number
of Farms Is Shown

Grand Forks, N. D., March TO-
Canvass of three counties of the 19
included in the third and fifth CEN
sus districts supervised by H. o.
Herbrandson of this city, has now
been completed in the federal farm
census. They are Grand Forks
Cavalier and Griggs counties. All
show healthy increases in the num-
Der of farms. There are zoos
farms in Grand Forks county
which is an increase of 81 farms
over the last census; 2,133 farms
in Cavalier, an increase of 1lS
farm and 9S6 farms in Griggs, an
increase of % farms. 1t is expected
the work will all be completed by
Tuesday.
The record of census in these
three counties have been shipped
to the central census office in
Washington, D. C.
Twenty-eight farms in Grand
Forks and Cavalier counties, total.
ing 6,40O acres, have been abandon
cd by their tenants, according Ia
information collected by the census
bureau. Twenty-ote of these farms
totaling 1,60O acres, are in Grand
Forks county.
In an explanatory note, the
abandonment of farms in Crane
Forks county is said to be caused
by land soured by alkali. During
the period of the war when prices
were inflated this land was worked
but under normal conditions it can
not be made to pay.
Reasons given for abandonment
in Cavalier county are: Poor crop.
and low prices in 1923 and Lane
foul with weeds. 1t was a case o
farming at it's best being hardly I
paying proposition and severa
quitting the farms. Those on tn
poorer lands, generally renter
moved to better lands or quit farm
ing and the owners of poor land
were unable to get renters.

DEPOSITS IN
BANKSR RISE
Big Increase Is Registered in
Golden Valley County

Beach, N. D., March 16.-As the
result of one good crop in 1924, the
farmers and the public generally
have shown their confidence in the
banks of Golden Valley county by
comparative statement of the
the gain in deposits reflected in a
banks business during the year,
prepared by the Advance. The fig
ures are compiled from the pub
lished statements of the respective
banks on January 81, 1923, and
January 81, 1924, and are there
fore authoritative. No better baro-
meter of the prosperity of the
county can be obtained than "a stu
dy Of the growth in deposits and
the reduction in loans and dis.
counts as shown by the banks
statements.
Individual deposits have increas.
ed during the twelve months end
ing December 81, 1924, by $177,.
1892. The deposits O. every
bank in the county show a sub
stantial increase, despite the fact
that many persons still keep il
hiding cash and currency which
they hesitate to risk to the custody
of q bank, and which should be il
circulation. The increase in posta
savings deposits may be assume,
to be as large in proportion, al
though these figures are not avail
able for publication.
