Banner Year Promises Prosperity For North Dakota
North Dakota crops in 1915 are exceptionally bountiful with prices likely to rise due to wartime demand. Grand Forks officials report strong business activity, widespread optimism, and ample money in circulation. Nationally, steel, lead, zinc, and motor car demand stay high while some nonwar goods lag. Crop prospects statewide look bright, though Minnesota and Iowa see rain-related corn trouble. European war appears protracted. Local notices list loans, travel plans, and sales items.

British Gains Not as Great as They Were at First Reported
Beech North Dakota Aug 26 1915 A 16 year old Harley Wallace son of Willis Wallace was wounded in the left leg by a 12 gauge shotgun while near his stone boat home. He received treatment in Beach and will be laid up for some time. London reports on Gallipoli say ground gained is valuable but objective not reached and Turkish losses heavier than British losses. The British hold about 4 front miles and have penetrations into the interior as they rely on fleet support and weather soon to hinder Turkish defense.
