Little to Show for the Season.
LISBON. N. D., July 29.-(Special THE
great and prolonged drought has contin-
ued all the week, with high southerly gales
and intensely hot weather Hay-making
IS being pushed forward rapidly, and all
! kinds of stuff gathered together for fod-
der. Old dried glass and weeds are even
| sought after, and the poorest kind Of
such stuff sells locally for S. per ton
while choice hay of which there IS pre-
cious little, goes at $40. AS to tame hay
there Is none to be had.
Where little can be gathered. wheat is
being headed and scraped up, as every
precious in the sight of farmers this year
There are practically no oats to speak Of
and this grain. and other feed stuffS are
now being imported. 81 t&telf
1t is reported that many fields Of flax
in this vicinity are quite spotted and un-
even, which by many was thought to have
been caused by cut worms early In the
season. Now it is claimed that the cause
OF the impairment of the flax is mainly
due to flax disease, which was prob
ably brought into the state with new
seed. The agricultural college people
claim that when the fungus is once in
the ground 1t may remain there for many
years, thus affecting any subsequent crop
of flax Great care in the selection Of
flax seed should therefore be used, and
none sown taken from a field wherein the
disease is suspected. Several of R9Gsom

their herds up into the Morse river coun-
try, where they will be kept as long as
the grass holds out. and others are now
up in the hills looking up localities to
ranch their stock.
Corn is a failure, and, while much will
make excellent fodder, all will be very
short and thin. It was expected that
flax would be fair average crop. but the
continued severe weather has damaged
1t so badly than the average cannot reach
five bushels per acre of that cut, and
there will be thousands of acres that will
not be harvested even. The rainfall so
far this month Is reported by the govern
ment observer here as only "a inch. Wells
ed that water on the prairie will become
very scarce later on. Prairie fires, too,
have been quite numerous during the
week. and much damage Sas been done.
