The American Cotton Cooperative
association and the cotton stabiliza-
ton corporation requested the loan

different terms from those which the
reconstruction corporation specified
in giving its approval.
Jones announced the program
Monday night in radio address. He
said:
I'VE have authorized 100000 for
cotton cooperative and cotton stab
ilization corporations to enable them
to hold their cotton until 1888"
This statement was added to an
advance copy of his address on gen.
eral policies Of the corporation just
before Jones began to speak. He did
not elaborate on it and in q later
interview would say only the loan
was requested by the farm board.

cotton member of the board, also de-
cllned comment at this time" But

Burleigh Farmers
Are Holding Wheat

Burleigh county farmers are CO.
operating wholeheartedy in the

County Agricultural Agent H. o.
Putnam said Tuesday.
The agent said he believed, fol-
lowing survey of elevators In the
county. that all farmers who have
storage space are holding their
grain for higher prices.
Farmers who have harvested
and threshed their wheat with
combines. Of course, have sold
their wheat" Putnam said, but q
great share of the crop already
threshed with separators has been
held from the market"
How long Burleigh farmers will
hold their grain is problematical,
the agent said. Federal seed loans
do not become due until Nov. 30,

Immediately preceding that date,

City Board Will Consider
Three Plans for HeQtit1Q
Natural Gas. Coal or Steam
Systems Are Available
For Buildings

Bismarcks city commission will not
decide on method for heating the
city hall and library during the COM
ing winter until it has estimates on
costs for three different types. it was
decided at a meeting of the body
Monday evening.
A proposal for heating the two
buildings by natural gas was submit
ted to the board by the Montana
Dakota Power company but the COM
mission postponed definite action on
it until 1t receives bids for coal. and
an estimate on city steam heat for
the two structures from the North
Dakota Power and Light company.
When all the figures are available
the commissioners plan to select the
most economical method. City Audi
tor Myron H. Atkinson was instruct
ed to advertise for coal bids i'm
mcdiately and to acquaint the North
Dakota Power and Light company
with its plan.
The Montana Dakota com p any
said In its proposal that new COM
mercial rates enable it to offer ma
tural gas for the two buildings at a
scale which will insure the city a
saving of $211 or 20.7 per cent an
nually. The first 100000 cubic feet
per month will cost 30 cents per thou
sand feet, the second 10000 feet will
cost Is cents. while all over 100000
cubic feet per month will cost % l-2
cents.
Installation Costs $495
Complete installation for gas heat
ing would cost $425, the company
estimated. The gas firm said the
city. II 1t accepted the plan, would
not be required to pay any costs un-
til the end of the first heating sea-
son. If, at this time, tine city decided
to retain the gas system, 10-per-
cent cash discount would be allowed.
If, on the other hand, the city
decided not to continue using natural
gas, the company said it would re-
move the gas fixtures and replace
the coal-burning fixtures without
cost. The only charge under this ar
rangement would be for gas actually
used.
The saving through the use of
natural gas would pay for the gas
fixtures within two and one-ha1f
years. the gas company asserted.
A letter Of recommendation for
the gas heating system, written by
the Dickinson public library board,
which uses natural gas for heating
the Dickinson library. was attached
to the proposal.
No action was taken on sugges-
ton from E. G. Wanner, secretary Of
the Bismarck Garden club, that the
city care for trees on boulevards
which are dying from neglect.
1882 Budget Adopted
The ordinance introduced July 20
making effective the budget for the

FIREMEN AND ALUMNI HAVE EASY SAILING
 IN THURSDAY TILTS

The Bremen and the Alumni cagers had easy sailing last night in their games with the Bureau of Public Roads and the Alaska Ju- neau, the former winning 38 to II and the latter Al to 16. Only a small crowd witnessed the games which were rather slow and unex- citing.
 Bayers led the Bremen in vic- tory, caging seven goals from scrimmage, followed closely by Hollmann with five and Erskine with four for third place. Lowe, playing his first game for the Roads aggregation, caged two from the field, the only man on the team to get more than one field goal.
 For the Alumni, Jim Orme went on scoring spree, caging ten field goals for a total of 20 points. Connors sank four, Baker three and Jackson three. Baker dropped a gift throw through the hoop for the extra point.
 Both games were loosly played and slow. The losing teams were too badly outclassed to ever be serious contenders.

 The first three bowlers in each lineup staged as pretty and close a race for scoring honors as one will see in many night Bring dale was high man of the sex tette, with 558, and Koski was low, with 530, and the Lobster trio nosed out their rival pinsters by one lone pin, in totals.
 The Clans won the odd game from the Cohoes in the second match, though toppling only 32 pins more in the aggregate. Bar ragar captured scoring honors for the evening, with high average, 196, and high score for single game, 218.
