BARLEY ESTIMATE OF JUNE.

VIM. H. Prinz concludes a long and
exhaustive review of the government
crop report OF June on barley by say
ing:
Now let us summarize the report.
In regard to acreage. l must state
again that 1t is more than a million
acres overestimated. and as to its
yield Of 25.2 bushels per acre, such
an estimate should not have been
made, and furthermore should not
have been published. as it is mislead-
only creates trouble in the trade and
destroys confidence in the govern
ment reports.
Last year at this time the govern
ment reported everything in regard
to barley in the finest condition, and
that high yield was promised, 24.9
bushels per acre. against 25.2 bushels
this year,; but we all know how it
turned out. 1t is entirely too early 20
even estimate the yield of barley.
Barley is never safe until it is har-
vested. and then after harvest. if not
the proper care is taken. it will spoil.
One thing is certain, however. that is
that we are starting out with better
ground conditions and plenty of sub
soil moisture. with the exception of

FLAX IN NORTH DAKOTA.

w. c. Palmer. Agricultural Editor,
North Dakota Agricultural College
Flax is one of the crops thai North
Dakota leads in. 1t is one of the most
profitable crops. The keeping of the
fax crop depends on putting into
practice the best that we know re-
garding the enemies of the flax crop.
It's worst enemy is the a wilt.
This can be kept in control by select
ing good seed. by treating the seed
and by rotation of crops. The flax
wilt is a fungous disease. It grows
in the fax plant. using the sap Of the
plant as its food. 1t reproduces by
spores. These are so small that they
can only be zen by the aid Of a mi
croscope. They are large enough
though to start a plant. These spores
live in the soil for several years. If
flax is planted on land that is infect
ed the, plants will be attacked. The
spores lose their vitality after being
In the soil for five or six years. That
is where rotation Of crops helps. Tho
spores also abount on the seed and
in flax straw. BY selecting the
plumpest seed. by cleaning it and
then treating with formaldehyda
most Of the spores are eliminated and
killed.
A wilt resistant flax has also been
developed. This disease does not have
much effect on this flax. yet even
when this is grown 1t is best to OBJ
serve the above precautions of elim-
mating the disease.
BY observing these simple measures
OF eliminating fax wilt much can he
done to- keep the fax crop for North
Dakota.

and these again showed an
overwhelming sentiment for the
colonel.
In this connection an interesting
story is told about what has been dis
in the composing rooms of
Hearst's New York papers. A sub
foreman is an officer of an assembly
District republican club. He was asked
Hearst printery of whom he could
reach, about ESQ. His eport was that
about thirty would vote for Taft and
about forty for Wilson and all the
others for Roosevelt,
Brooklyn for Roosevelt.
The only republican member of
congress from Brooklyn has been
studying reports and it is his opinion
that if the election could be held
right away the colonel would carry
every congressional district in Brook
iyn. except that represented by John
j. Fitzgerald. which is reliably dem
ocratic by $4,000.
But it is a fact that the alarm
among the republican leaders runs
all over the state. The more serious
and more pressing matter for the re-
for all-is what attitude they will
toward the disaifected republl-
who propose to put progressive
candidates in the field for every office

some degree of complacency the loss

their aldermen. assemblymen and mu-
nicipal officers go down to defeat
merely because Taft and not Roose-

There Is M question that disquiet-

1t is not the detection of former ma

the tendency Of these Independent

have generally counted to expose the
cause of the new party.

HOPE MAN BURNED

Soldering Machine Set
His Clothes Attire.

Hope. y. d., July 25.-With his
body enveloped in flames, John Cas-
sell. the 1~7-year-old son of a promi-
nent banker. endeavored to get help
today by jumping from the roof of a
house. where he was working. TO the
ground below. but he was burned be-
yond saving when assistance reached
him. He died a few minutes later.
The young man had been doing
some soldering work on the roof of A
local house, when his clothes caught
fire. He was unable to %extinguish the
flames himself and ran to the edge Of
the ROOF and jumped to the porch, his
body resembling a living torch as he
went through the air. He jumped
from the porch to the ground, but
was unable to help himself in any
way after striking the ground. When
assistance arrived. he was too far gone
to do anything for.
The Cassells are we'll known
throughout this vicinity and this after
Moons tragedy came as an awful shock
to the residents of the city.

Attendance

Duluth, July 25.-several special
days are being planned by the direct
ors of the Duluth Baseball %associa-
ton. 1t may he hat Saturday will
be a day set aside for the entertain
ment of the visiting Swedish singers.
If this is decided upon every prepara-
ton will be made to make the day

Swedish visitors.
There is also going to be a Darby
O'Brien day. This day will he one set
aside in appreciation Of the services
that the Dock has given to Duluth.
He has been manager OF four teams
here, counting the present one. He
won the first pennant in the Minny
league and it looks as if it would be
very hard work stopping him from
coping the gonfalon in the new Cen
trail International.
There must be something done to
increase the attendance at the base
ball games. The n%iggardly patronage
of baseball in this town is the talk
of the northwest. In Winnipeg they
are asking what kind Of a city We
have here. what on earth is the mat
ter with it. and other questions of an
embarrassing nature.
The directors of the club are going

attendance during the remainder Of
the season. Fans in the city should
make it a point to support the team.
1t is one of the best that We have
eve had. and the right kind of men
are at the present time mixed up
with the game.
Nothing is further away than
threats. but it might be said in simple
truth that with the kind Of support
that baseball is receiving here at the
present time it would be rather fool
ish forme min moderate circumstances
to think of continuing in the game.
There has been a persistent yell here
for winning baseball. The town has
a winning team and the attendance Is
even less than that across the bay,
the team has been a joke all
season.
There are a bunch of baseball
knockers here and the sooner they
are eliminated from the town just so
much quicker will it be possible to
do more In the way of the national
game. Duluth is at the present time
trying to rid the community Of in
dustrial knockers and to cultivate
some boosters and hustlers. The
management of the team would like
to see some baseball boosters here.
