MACARoNr STANDS THE TEST
Big Boom for the New Wheat in
North Dakota.
Special to The Journal

SpeclaI to The journal. 7" t 80
Fargo, N D., Aug. 11.-Macaroni wheat
has received another big boom in this
state, as result OF the discovery that it
is practically immune. from the black
rust. The state is being invaded by the
rust at the rate of about two miles north
ward daily. Fields are reported almost
ruined as far north the Great North
ern main line west, tho the damage is
not serious at this date north Of the
Northern Pacific main line. Much Of the
wheat south of that territory will yield a
fine crop, but many fields are being plowed
and no effort will be made to harvest
others.
Fife wheat has suffered more than any
other kind from the rust. The blue stem
has beer injured less severely, while in

RICE COUNTY IN CLOVER
Wheat a Fine Crop and Otherf Prod

Snanial to The Journal

Special to The Journal.
Farihault, Mimi, Aug. 11.-Harvesting
in Rice county is well under way, and it is
apparent that the yield will be much above
the average. Wheat will be g. splendid
crop, and yields of from thirty to thirty
five bushels to the acre will be the rule
rather than the exception. Barley is either
in the stack or threshed, and Of that
cleaned up the berry is reported in prime
condition and the yield large. Corn is
backward, but looking fine. Unless af-
fected by frost, there will be large yield.
Potatoes give promise of$an abundant
yield and are sound and dry. From what
have been gathered for the early market
it Is judged that yields Of 200 to 800
bushels to the acre will not be uncom-
mon The hay crop was heavy and Of
extra quality.

I An official source here reports the
sighting of sixteen Russian warships
is alleged that the Russian hospital
ship Mongolia, carrying women and
children, which left Port Arthur with
the squadron will go to Shanghai.
The Russian battleship Retvisan
was hit seventeen times during the re-

Port Arthur. One hundred shells
dropped In a spot where a powder
magazine had recently been removed.
The japanese are reported to be
lacking in sufficient large guns. The
present supply is mostly from the
fleet.
Captain shestakovsky of the Rus
sian torpedo destroyer Ritsitelini,
which emerged from Port Arthur
with the fleet Wednesday morning,
and which arrived here early this
morning, states that his engines broke
down when he was midway between
Chi-fu and Port Arthur. He proceeded
at a speed of II knots to this port.
He says he saw no japanese vessels.
He confirms previous statements
that the large Russian warships had
left Port Arthur, but refused to say
directly that the fleet had gone on an
extended cruise, but left the infer
ence in the course of a long interview
that the warships expect to join the
Vladivostok squadron, which he said
had been recruited by the purchase
of ships from the Argentine Republic.
Captain Shestakovsky said, further,
that the Russian torpedoboats, gun
boats and small craft generally re-
manned at Port Arthur. Some came
out to perform their usual duties in
the vicinity, but they did not follow
the big ships.
