been instrumental in placing in the field
ticket that is causing much comment.
At the convention at Michigan City, A.
K. Riten and w. E. Perkins were put up
for the legislature; w. Hensey for treas
urer; S. S. Aas for auditor; w. II. Smith
for states attorney, Miss Anna Breslain
for superintendent. This ticket Is a po-
litical study. Mr.. Perkins is the partner
and friend Of TON" Baird, the former
republican leader Of Nelson county; Mr..
Smith was a candidate for attorney at
the recent republican county convention,
but failed to land. Colonel Sterrett Of
Lakota, the present republican county
judge, was a seeker for the populist NOM
nation for the same office, but developed
no strength. The genial colonel like
Attorney Smith, was defeated In the re-

BISMARCK, N. D.-The past week has
been generally favorable for threshing and

Friday was heavy enough to wet grain so
that it could not be threshed until after
it had dried out. Over one-half of the
wheat has been threshed and most Of the
other small grain except flax. The work Is
progressing slowly In some sections on
account of scarcity of help. Some of the
late corn was caught by frost and severely
injured, but most of the crop was far
enough advanced to be secure from danger
from that source, and was not damaged.

.
FARGO, N. D.-Professor Fl. L. Bolley
of the North Dakota Agricultural college
has been so thoroughly sustained in his
theory concerning flax wilt diseases that
the farmers and grain men are urging him
to prosecute his Investigations still far
Their. He has issued a bulletin to the
farmers in which he asks a lot of per-
tinent questions regarding the conditions
under which flax was raised, as to the
number Of flax crops seed treatment, new
or old land, kind Of seed, how secured, re =
suits and remarl1S> He will summarize
his information ar , hopes to be able to
benefit further the farmers of the state
before 1t is time to put in another crop.
All those who treated the flax seed as he
advised last spring and seeded ON land
that had not been in flax for a year or
two, report from fair to good results.
Some farmers who took the precautions
he insisted upon have good crops, while
their neighbors are getting less than half
as much. '' q F.
The remaining school lands in Cass
county were leased yesterday afternoon
by the county auditor at higher figures
than have ever been received before.
Bidding was very active and the cash
leases amounted to $6444. No school
lands are to be sold here this year, as
the land board is disposing Of holdings
in the central part of the state.
Fargo college opened to-day with a
larger attendance than at any former
opening session. Field Secretary Shaw
was especially active during the summer
vacation and was very successful. The
good crops makes it easier for many par
ents to send their children to college this
fall President Morley, who has been

to raise sufficient funds to secure the
promised endowment from DR.. Fearsons
