clock Sunday morning.
They met several hundred Japanese
gathered there from different camps;
practically everybody was worked up
by the beating of empty kerosene tins
at the arrival of the officers of the
Higher Wage Association. Messrs. Ia
saka, Negoro and Maxine made
speeches praising the strikers deter
mination and encouraging them to ear
ry out successfully their fight.
After the speeches, representatives
were chosen from each camp, and
through them formal demand for the
increase of wages will be made this
morning. Cheers were given, when the
meeting came to end, for the strikers,
for the Higher Wage Association, and
for the Nippu Jiji.
Yesterday morning, irrigators and
others refused to go to work and it is
expected that all laborers, japanese
and Chinese, will refuse to go to work
this morning.
The Nippu in the extra congratulated
the Aiea Japanese for starting the ball
to roll, and promised all the help the
strikers may need. The paper may ask
for general subscriptions from the sym
pathizers Of their cause.
What the Manager Says.
Manager Ross stated last evening
that no demands had been made upon
him so far but he expected them to-
day. Over the telephone, which was
working badly, Mr.. Ross was under

work yesterday, although this may
refer to the irrigators.

be warded off.

Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1909-02-02

The theme of plant breeding has
been pretty we'll worked by the pap
ers during the last two or three years
and many of the lay readers must
have hazy sort of notion that plant
breeder is able to perform wonders
at the very least and perhaps on those
days when good luck is especially at
tentive, miracle may he expected.
Unfortunately this notion has not
been so quickly frowned upon by the
plant breeder himself as good ethics
might have dictated; especially is
this true when the breeders own
work was in question. When the
eharlatan and the ignorant began to
improve plants thousand times fast
Gle wheat, that was certainly worth

would be something like twenty mil
lion dollars annually instead OF the
two and on-half millions at the pres
ent time. OF course a good deal of
the tillable virgin prairie is now run
ming stock and thus producing some
thing of an income, but the roughage
of the grain crops will probably fatten
as much stock as the wild prairie is
doing .sE}.%.% t;,U
1t is difficult to estimate how val
de improved seed Is to the farmer;
it depends SO much on the man. From
our trials at the experiment station, it
would seem that wheat, oats and bar
ley crops would very easily be in
creased one dollar per acre by the
use of improved grain. For instance,
we have, fife wheat not yet ready
for distribution, which yields from
two to three bushels per acre better
than the best of our fife and blue
stem wheat, and which has an added
advantage of maturing four or five
days earlier than other: wheat This
is new wheat for this region and
probably none IS grown in this state.
Now this is wheat, although apparent
ly decided Improvement over the
wheats that are commonly grown
here, is still in raw condition, 50 to
speak. Although apparently uniform
in quality, it is made up of number
of strains that are recognized only by
one accustomed to see small differ
ences in plants. Though two strains
may look quite alike, yet there may
be a decided difference in thir Weld
ing power. n..>.
At the present time our cereals are]
being improved largely by the method
of selecting the best plant and in
creasing t The method looks easy
and it is in a way. However, it
takes a good deal Of trouble to t.eter-
mine which plant is really best. Al
plant breeder goes through a field of
grain he wishes to improve, and picks
out perhaps two hundred heads that
look desirable. Each head is planted
by 'tself and watched. A number
can be discarded the first year, but
a large number will remain to be
tested the next year. 1t may be nee
essary to carry dozen or fifteen
strains to the field for further test.
There may be three or four that will
yield about the same. In such a. case
or In any case, it will be necessary to

No one knows what percentage Of this

900 acres of tillable land west of the

were 100000 acres of this under cul-

In spite of the fact that plant breed
ing has been considerably overwork-
ed in the papers, there remains vast
field, yet almost untouched, of this
valuable line OF station work. This
statement is especially true of the
region in which we are interested,
western North Dakota.
There are no division lines in North
Dakota, but for the sake of argument
let us take that portion of the state
