Z Last year at this time Minneapolis
had about 24,O0O,O0O bushels of wheat
on hand and they were short then. This
year they have about l3OOO,0OO bushels
and the supply is not increasing to any
extent. The reason is that the millers
are grinding it and shipping it as flour
just as fast as it is coming in. Last
week they shipped something over 500
cars of wheat the biggest shipment ever
made in one day.
What this means as to present and
future prices of wheat farmers may
study out for themselves. One signifl-
cant fact is that for more than two
years cash wheat has commanded pre-.
'mium in Minneapolis. There isn't much
danger of "cheap wheat as long as the
demand exceeds the supply.

If WILL BE WARM. !" Y
'::;s::. NEXT SUMMER.

! Politics are usually somewhat warm
in this state df North Dakota and for
the past few months things have been
looking like a mix ,up next Jnne at the
primaries which would make foot ball
game look tame. But now the sudden
death '{ot Sen. NJ. N. johnson makes
complications that even puzzle the wild
est guessersaS.... \. !
In the frst,place the primary law has
no word that provides for filling vacan-
cy in the senatorial delegation, it has no
provision for the selection of two candi-
dates at the same time. - -
ii In the second place the number of as
Plrants for senatorial honors and Incl
slentally the house of representatives
will be Increased manifold and the al
ignmentsof their friends and factions be
! almost obliterated.
Both stalwarts and insurgents are
wondering where they are at while the
individual aspirants are buzzing like
lot of bees that have lost their queen.
Meantime tn" democrats will have the
privilege of appointing senator pr, TEN
ana are hoping that the confusion in
thse ranks of the republicans may allow
thfm to slip in and elect candidate of
[their own. Though by the way, they
E;Wfl begin to develop troubles of their
| own lust as certain as noSaihle Snccess
seems at all probable.
+ Altogether, the signs are for the warm
est political fight that North Dakota
has ever had next summer.

DETERIORATION IN
WHEAT YIELDS.
iBY PROF. BoLLEY.

Fcr a'number of years the writer has
beenoonvinced through his obserraI6ione
and experiments. that the lessened WELD
ofMheat upon normally we'll cultivated
but cid wheat lands Of the Red 1--WE,
valley and various other spring wheat
areas of the Northwest, are not wholly
due tts soil deterioration as to avaalahle
plant food. Gt is, however, quito cana-
monty asserted.and has been the nsual
belief thatsudh reduced yields should
be largely attributed to loss of avail
able nitrogen in the soil.

and field 'oonditians, upon virgin soils
and old wheat soils, covering q nanbe.

of trying nut variaus ideas a. to the
cause Of anoh crop deterioration, have
eaohgear aiSen results Of such nature
as to .eonvince me that one Of the chief
caases of tho gradually reduced wheat
yields in the case of tie crop is not Ii
sectly associated with . deteriorated n
trogen oonditian, but 10 brought abont
prinarily by specific crop diseases which
are mace or less affected by the charae-

ADVICE FOR NEXT YEARS CROP.
~ Rotate, thus giving the wheat
fungi which are now known to exist in
such defective fields, chance to die out,
Corn culture and other crops. than. cer-
eals associated with close pasture. are
most likely to give beneficial rssui:s. }s1
~ Sow only plump, properly coIoreds
seed wheat. for some of the chief wheat
parasites which we have been. studying
inf'st the kernels of diseased wheat
plants internally and are thus carried
each year to the new crop. No disesseds
grains retain normal color, shape and
size. Therefore, grade the grain so as
to eliminate the shrunken and sheiveleds
seeds. g.
81 Treat all seeds by the. ;tormalde-
hyde method; for the seed teaIn infested
wheat crops also carry the spores of; the
wheat parasites upon the outside Of the
grain rs in the case of smut, and the
formaldehyde treatment easily destroys
all such spores This is one of the ex-
plantations why treatment for the pre-
vention of smut has always shown !. n in
grease of crop even though the grain SO
treated is known to be free from smut,
This method OF handling seed will pre-
vent sowing large quantities of spores Of
the wheat parasites upon uninfected or
slightly infected soils.
A4) Avoid SO preparing the land as to
produce an excess of available nitrogen
or the use OF nitragen fertilizers in un-
due amounts Immediately preceding
the wheat crop unless the large avail.

by phosphates or other mineral fertilz

saach lands falls an easy prey to the rfun-
gi. A crop of corn OF flax or mlllet upon
such lands preceding the wheat crop,
will 'bs aptto leave the soil thorough
cultivation, drainage and aeration, and
yet have the:seed bed thoroughly com
pact. These are conditions which ARE
particularly favorable to the production
OF the wheat plant, conditions which it
can stand well, while the reverse onndi.
