Better Crop Prospects

The Minneapolis Tribune crop editor
sees better prospects for the wheat crop
in the United States and says:
The wheat market is now impressed
with the better crop prospects in the
hard winter wheat area Of the south
west and the promising start of spring
wheat in the northwest.
The government is expected to record
June condition for fall sown wheat
several points higher than shown in the
last report and a spring wheat outlook
close to par. For the last two weeks
nature has done everything to insure q
vigorous plant growth. Il
The improvement in winter wheat,
however, is only relative to the very
unfavorable report issued the first Of
the month. The remaining acreage is
small and precludes large production.
At the best the June condition will
hardly suggest more than 400, ,000, 900
bushels, which is 80, 600, 900 bushels less
than actually produced year and the
crop has still q most critical period to
go through before maturity.
In the northwestern states there has
beena great deal of rain, but there
have been no complaints from the Red
river valley. This is very good evi-
dence that precipitation has not been
excessive for the heavy soil of the val
ley, yet insuring sufficient moisture for
the lighter land in the western area.
While the spring wheat acreage in
the three states will be smaller than
last year the condition will be high in
the first report of the season, next
month. The crop promise should ap,
proximate 24O.0OO, 900 bushels, but the
actual harvest will depend, of course,
on the climatic conditions during the
most important time of filling and head
ing. :.
The more optimistic crop news has
caused moderation Of speculative ac-
tivity and lower prices for wheat. The
decline has not been drastic as the
quotations for the deferred futures are
quite high and there is still reflected in
the pit disposition to anticipate fur
ther advances, rather than any perma-
nent downturn, in spite of the improved
agricultural promise.

Corn should not be narrowed when the

, part of the man who used the harrow.
Corn should not be narrowed when the
soil is wet and packed from the heavy
rains. Neither should it be narrowed
when the plants are just out of the
ground because they are broken off
very easily at that stage of their growth,
especially where the ground is wet and
hard. The best time to use the harrow
amongst growing corn is Immediately
after planting and again after the
plants are we'll established in the soil.
Best results are obtained where the
harrow follows cultivator which will
smooth the'surface and work firm soil
amongst the plants as it destroys tiny
weeds. There is no special advantage
gained from the use of the harrow
when it will not destroy weeds, because
it will injure more or less of the plants
in spite of good care on the part Of the.
driver. Corn will not break as badly in
the afternoon as it will in the morning.
This is due to the effects of the sun on
the plants which partially willis them.
hence they are tough and resist the
rustling about from the harrow teeth.
Weeds are more readily destroyed in
the afternoon because of the more in
tense heat from the sun. Litter will
not cling to the harrow teeth in the
afternoon. In fact, there are many
reasons why corn should be narrowed
in the afternoon when the sun shines
brightly, rather than in the morning.
Don't harrow your corn where the
stand of plants is not sufficient for .
full crop. The weeder is decided i'm
provement over the harrow in field of
growing corn or potatoes. Every farm
should be equipped with one or two
horse weeder.

Qn River 5Q Years

The government snag boat Mandaf
arrived from down river last Thursday
and stopped few days at Williston.
A visit aboard found everything in its
usual perfect order and brought about
q pleasant visit with Captain Gould and
Purser Halloran.
Captain Gould who has seen close to
a half century of river SERVICE. is able
to relate much Of interest concerning
the Missouri and the history of the de-
velopment Of its valley. He'is acquaint-
ed with all the prominent old settlers
from Fort Benton to st. Louis. He re-
sided for many years at Yankton, S. D.
and he and the Herald man discovered
that they had many mutual acquain-
tances there. The captain remarked
that there was much similarity be-
tween the sites of Whliston and Yank-
ton. Both having beautiful situations
which lay thesame with reference to
the river, except that Williston is q
little nearer to the stream.
Yankton is one of the very oldest
towns in either of the Dakotas and has
become beautiful because Of its fine
lawns and grand elms and naples.
Captain Gould recalls coming up the
river past the site Of Williston A years
ago. He says that the. channel Of the
stream then flowed close to the bluffs
some three miles straight south of here
and after flowing couple Of miles
west made . sharp turn to the north TO-
the high ground west Of here. The cap
tain knows the old Muddy probably as
well as any living man. He says that
it is evident that the main channel 10
now on this side good and strong, the
best that ] have ever seen it. " The
revetment work put in by the govern
ment Is Of the greatest value, he says,

Election Laws Hamper Colonel
By Tohn E. Monk

AaSSSSV0 A0WS HoMPSA NVAV4S4
By John E. Monk
Chicago, June 22.-The Roosevelt
people are engaged in collecting infor-
nation concerning the election laws of
the various states, in order to find out
where they will stand in the matter of
getting Presidential electors on the
ticket for the third candidacy which
has been proposed.
Conditions are widely different in the
various states. In some it would be a
comparatively simple matter to get
electors on the ticket, while in others
it will be mighty difficult. In New
York, for instance, the Levy election
law is an obstacle in the way of indie.
pendent action. 1t will take about so,
900 signatures to get Presidential
electors placed upon the ballot in that
state for an independent candidate.
These signaturessmust be divided pro.
portionately among tho congressional
districts. Further than that, no man
who is enrolled republican, ordemocrat,
is eligible to sign a petition for an in
dependent. & .
\ To find so, 900 voters who are not en-
EroRed,. properly distributed among the
districts and willing to sign Roosevelt
petitions, will be no easy task. In
some districts it is believed to be we'll
nigh impossible.
7 In Indiana the Roosevelt people have
been advised it will be comparatively
simple to get electors for a ticket. In
some other states it may be too late.
All those questions have arisen among
the Roosevelt folks and they are busy
getting answers.
There are many states where the
presidential electors have already been
chosen by the Republicans, at the same
popular primaries where they voted for
Roosevelt. In such states these electors
will be claimed by the Roosevelt men.
They viii run, of course, as regular re-
publican candidate and that Taft is the
possessor Of spurious nomination, If
he gets it, obtained entirely by stolen
votes in q convention which did not do
the will Of the rank and file Of the
party.
Thus, in some states it is figured that
Roosevelt will get the Republican ell
ectors already named, and be known as
the republican candidate: In other
states he will have to run If he does
run, % an independent progressive can
didate, with electors yet to be named.
How to get these electors on the bal
lots is whats the Roosevelt hackers are
figuring upon now.
This assumption that the Republican
electors already nominated viii vote
for Roosevelt, regardless Of the fact Of
who may be the official candidate of
the present convention, lie taking the
electoral college back to first principles.
There ID no constitutional reason why
N elector may not vote for anybody he
pleases, no matter on which ticket his
name appears.
Roosevelt counts upon many electors
doing this very thing. Nj. Taft may
get the nominal ation, but the colonel
figured that he viii get. the electors,
