Cranperry Harvest commenced on Juneau
sa County Marshes.
BARABOO, WIS.-The cranberry crop
this season will yield enormously, owing
to the unusual wet summer and the fruit
will be large and juicy. Baraboo citizens
are interested in marshes in Juneau
county and all expect harvest of ber-
ries that will surpass any previous year.
The picking on some Of the marshes
has already commenced. The only diff
Guilty will be to secure help to gather the
large crop. The picking Of the berries is
done by women and children when the
marshes can be drained a week or ten
days before the gathering Of the crop.
But the conditions are different, this sea-
son, owing to the vast amount of water
which cannot possibly be drained off, COM
sequently male help will have to be en-
ployed. f
Indians from all over the state are
focking to the cranberry districts and If
enough of such help can be secured there
will be no trouble to harvest the entire
crop before heavy frosts. ".s

Special to The Journal.
Fargo, N. D., Sept. 12.-Pe:sons who
have the interests Of the state asylum at
Jamestown at heart are protesting be-
some Of the appropriations because OF al
legged lack of funds and now reports that
the state finances are in such good con-
dition he is warranted in calling special
session Of the legislature to appropriate
the funds accumulated to help out the
state institutions embarrassed by the re-
cent decision Of the supreme court
The same protest has been made by the
friends of the North Dakota Agricultural
college in Fargo. The governor slashed
the appropriations badly and so crippled
the college that it is greatly handicapped
in carrying on the work.
The opposition to a special session is in
creasing and if one is called it will be
against the wishes of majority Of the
voters of the state.
Baker Still In tho Race.
Thomas Baker, Jr., Of this city, twice
speaker Of the house, declares he is not
out of the race for the gubernatorial nom
nation as has been announced. A report
gained currency that he would not make
the race because Congressman Spalding
lives in Fargo and it would be impossible
for Cass county to get both positions. I'm
less there Is a change in the program
Spalding and Baker will have a contest
for the control of the delegation to the
next state convention.
1t Is said that Governor White is ambi-
tious to succeed SpaIdlng in congress
and he Is expected to help Baker in this
corner Of the state.
Pulling for Macaronl Wheat.
The farmers are urging each other to
use the macaroni flour for bread in order
to boom the wheat. 1t Is explained to
them that they cannot expect to secure
the wide use of the flour by others when
they continue to use other brands of -four
The recent agitation has resulted in the
decision of the owners of two more mills
| to devote their entire plant to the manu-
| facture of macaroni flour. This will make
three mills that will grind nothing else
and other mills have agreed to grind a
considerable amount.
Demands for the flour are coming from
many sections Of the state and 1t is
difficult to fill orders till the new mills
start up.
