Over $225,0^0 per day are pouring Into the banks of Fargo, as a
result of grain drafts, and It Is a question whether ever before
there was so much money coming into the city in such a short time.
One bank alone yesterday received no less than $125,000 and the
other banks made up quota that ran over f'JOO.OOO for the day while
the returns for today will even *o ahead of that figure.
This money eomes from the grain dealer* and is what the farm*
tri are being jaid for their crops.
From all sect inns of the state come reports to the effect that the
farmers are threshing and that nowhere has the crop been heavily
damaged.
It is stated that the men are coming In from the east and south
and that threshers, while not numerous, are sufficient almost to man
the machines tn a way. At any rate the reports are that there are
very few, if any, machines chut down because of the scarcity of
labor,
The threshing is about all done on the Southwestern line, and on
the new Fargo-Surrey line they nre at it from daylight until late at
night, and thousands and thousands of bushels of high class grain
are lining turned out.
The money will continue to pour into the Fargo banks for sever
al weeks and the threshing has just about really started right.
One of the bankers, in speaking to The Forum In regard to the
matter, said:
"You tan say that we are taking in among the banks of the
rttv nbout $225,000 per day and this sum is likely to prevail for some
time. From what w»« can hear over the state the yteld is all right
and there are very few reports of anything like a great amount of
damage having been done to the crops by reason of the wet weather."

"VPPMPI
with pleasure this bank extends congratulations to the'peo
ple of this state on the opening of another artery of commerce. It
demonstrates that the large railroad interests have confidence in our
permanent growth as a wealth producing section of the natioti.
It shows that they are confident the people who till our fertile
acres are not experimenters, but men who will get a continuous in
crease in their crops by more intensive farming methods and thus
bring them ample returns on the hundreds of thousands of dollars
they have expended in building this new railway.
The growth of North Dakota is reflected in the growth of.this
bank, which step by step, has advanced from a small beginning un
til it now occupies a high place among the financial institutions of
the state. You are cordially invited to become identified with us
in any of our branches—Commercial Banking, Savings Accounts,
Trust Business. We want you to make this your financial head
quarters and we will give your business our most careful attention.
