BUMPER CROP Fur
MkENzIE COUNTY

SCHAFER, Jul y12.-Nothing but
hail, or possibly hot winds, will pre-
vent Mckenzie county farmers from
harvesting the largest crop in its hist
DRY this season. The general soaker
which is falling here today is just
what the growing crops needed.
The assessors have reported more
than $50, 900 acres under cultivation
in the county this season. This Is
perhaps nearly double the acreage un.
der cultivation here in 1909.
According to returns received from
the various %threshing machine oper'
ators in 1909, the farmers in the coun'
ty garnered about n million bushels
of all kinds of eraiv. 1t Is thought
that the yield this year will be even
better than that of 1909. Should this
be the case, Mckenzie county farm
ers will have some two million bush
els of grain to hacl to market.
As there is no possibility OF the
Great Northern or the 500 completing
their proposed lines drought the
county this season, the farmers must
of necessity haul their grain to the
railroad, a distance of from rs to 30
miles over rough prairie roads that no
one has either the time nor the In
clination to put in shape.

news LETTER FROM LONDON

for Ireland. He justified his position,
however, with the argument tat two
chambers were necessary where great
Imperial questions were considered,
but not so in the case of a legislature,
which was meant to do small, subor.
dinate and local work"
William O'Brien intends to move an
amendment to clause 2 Of the bill to
deal with the question Of land pur-
chase. His amendment will be in the
exact words used by the late William
f. Gladstone in the bill Of 1893: Our
ing three years fro mthe passing of
this act and If Parliament Is then
sitting until the end of that session
of Parliament, the Irish legislature
shall not pass an act respecting the
relations of landlord and tenant or
the sale. purchase. or letting of land
generally" Mr.. O'Brien contends
that the insertion of these words
would give a substantial assurance
that land purchase would have to be
effectively dealt with within the next
three years.
1t is argued by Mr.. O'Brien that
| Mr.. Gladstone at the now famous con-
ference at Boulogne, in 1891, held
with a vie VITO the reunion Of the IT.
ish and Liberal forces, gave a guaran-
tee to deal with the land question and
submitted a memorandum in which 1t
was stated that it would be obviously
inconsistent with the concession OF
Home Rule to Ireland that the powers
to deal with the laws relating to
land in Ireland should be permanently
confined to the Imperial Parliament
1t would have to be exercised stimuli
taneously with the establishment OF
; Home Rule, or within a limited period
thereafter to be specified in the Home
Rule bill, OF the power to deal with
it must be committed to the local leg
islature.
Mr.. Gladstone carried out this
pledge in 1898 in the words which
Mr.. O'Brien now wants inserted in
the Home Rule bill. Premier AS
quith, however, after consultation
with Lord Morley, who was a party
to the Boulogne conference, said Mr..
Gladstone gave this pledge on the un'
derstanding that the late Charles 5,
Parnell retired from the leadership
Of the Irish party, a condition which
vas not carried out.
The Premier added that the Gov
eminent was fully alive to the import
ance of proceeding with all possible
dispatch with the land purchase set
Element. The reservation Of that ser
vice was in a great degree dictated
! by the necessity of maintaining un'
questioned the security on which the
futcre of land purchase must largely
if not wholly, depend.

ST. PAUL, July 12.-Wm. Rae, Jr.,
Of the well known firm of Rae Broth
ers, Billings, Montana, passed through
South st. Paul today on his way to
Chicago.
Montana and North Dakota were
never in better shape than at the pres
ent time," said Mr.. Rae. 1.-THE crop
outlook is simply fine, in my judy
ment the best in the history Of the
country and they are practically by
the danger point"
"The live stock output will, as
everyone knows, be short. The cattle
and sheep that do come to market,
however will be very good.
"The lamb crop is fully fifty per
cent short of normal through Montana
and l am told conditions in Idaho are
about the same.
practically all the stock stuff, both
cattle and sheep, will be kept at
home.'
Mr.. Rae is a director in the Stock
Yards National Bank and spent the
greater part Of the time here in con
ference with the bank officials.
