Don't Worry.

This is easier said than done, yet it
may be of some help to consider the
matter. II the cause is something over
which you have no control it is obvious
that worrying will not help the matter
in the least, On the other hand, II
within your control you have only to
act. When you have cold and fear an
attack OF pneumonia, buy a bottle OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and use
it judiciously and all cause for worry as
to the outcome will quickly disappear.

In the infected district both the red
and the black rust were encountered,
often on the same stalk, and it was
rather hard to decide which was re-
sponsible for the damage.
The rust is now conceded to be
growth of spores or fungus and is
spread by being blown from field to
field, often over long distances, and
whenait comes In contact with damp
stalk it adheres to it and Immediately
begins to multiply and spread. In
former times 1t was supposed that the
damage was caused by the bursting
of the over-filled sap cells when rains
had caused a rapid growth.
Taken as whole, Mr. Holes consid-
ers the crop prospects of that part of

being most satisfactory, and with the
high prices that are prevailing will

DAMAGE FROM RUST.
Fargo Expert Estimates the Damage
Done by Rust to the Grain Crop Of
the State

Fargo Expert Estimates the DAMAGE
Done by Rust to the Grain Crop Of
the State.
Fargo Call: Mr.. James Holes, q
farmer living on the north end of
Broadway, accompanied the Com
mercial club special on the tour
throughout the state and gave the
closest attention to the condition of
the crops on the route. Mr.. Holes is
one of the acknowledged experts of
the state on all questions relating to
farm crops and yields and his obser.
vations and opinions are bound to
carry much weight
At every stop Mr.. Holes would Sc
cure conveyance and drive as fa1
as possible into the country. thereby
getting a much more comprehensive
idea of the actual condition.
Until Davenport was reached, al
most no rust was to be seen, and. in
deed, there was but little to be seer
until within the neighborhood of Lis
bon, where the grain gave evidence O.
the presence of the disease. From
Lisbon to LaMoure the damage wa!
by far the greatest and here he esti
mated that the damage would reach
rs per cent if the macaroni wheat was
included and 80 1-3 per cent exclusive
of the macaroni, which seems to have
resisted the ravages of the disease
much better than had the Scotch fife
and blue stem varieties. In this vicin
dty were seen some fields where he
estimated that the damage would ap

proach Sc per cent. Along this branch
the harvest has hardly begun.
From LaMoure the route was north
to jamestown up the James river val.
ley, and here the greater part of the
wheat is in shock. and being so much
earlier, had practically escaped with
out injury. Some rust was to be seen
around Jamestown, but this gradually
disappeared, and from Dawson west
there was none to be seen. Here, too.
the crop was about all in the shock,
on account of having been seeded so
much earlier than farther east. Farm
ing is becoming quite general west of
Mandan in the Heart river valley coun-
try and much fine grain was seen.
From jamestown north to Leeds the
crops had been touched with rust to
small extent, about 10 per cent if
the macaroni we're included and prob
ably double that amount exclusive of
that variety. The crops here were a
little bit light but were much better
than a year ago, when they had almost
a total failure.
The Sanborn branch showed the fin
est crops of the route and they were
but slightly affected.
Regarding grades, Mr.. Holes said
that it would range from no grade to
No. hard, depending chiefly on the
earl1ness, as the early grain, being un.
affected with rust, was of much
plumper berry than that which was
later in being sown and ripening.
The yield will be from eight to TWEEN.
ty bushels, although there were many
fields that would yield greatly in ex
cess of these figures.
When asked as to the probable av
erage damage done to the crops in
the whole territory traversed, Mr.
Holes said that it would approximate
ten per cent if the macaroni, Scotch
nre and blue stem were all included
and double that amount il the maca
roni was not included.
While wheat received the create;
part of his attention, the other crops
came in for fair share of attention
and were as fine as one could wish tt
see. Neither barley nor oats seem t,
have suffered to the extent that whea
did, and everywhere would give fin
yields of splendid quality. Hay, also
was most plentiful and of the yer
finest quality, while great quantitie
