ing to the seventh Geographic report
issued by the department of agricul-
ture is excellent. Crops sown on last
years ummer following and on
spring blowing are showing to the
best possible advantage and have not
apparently suffered from the hot and
dry weather of the last week of June.
Grain grown on stubble has suffered
somewhat from the drought. On
lighter soil in a few districts some
damage was done by the heat. but so
concerned h rains of the first week
of July came when most needed. AL
ready from 30 to 40 per cent Of the
wheat is headed out. The recent hot
weather has forced the grain into the
shot blade a little earlier than was
expected and with continued favora-
BILE weather the harvest will be earlier
than last year by about two weeks.
The present indications are that con-
siderably more harvest help will be
required than last as the area is
greater and the outlook for the crops
in general is good.

THE BARLEY MARKET.

What might be called good mailing
barley was wanted at the late de-
cline in the market and the feeding
qualities were salable at the deer
ence. with a range of values from SIS
to something about 80. Receipts
were small and for mailing barley
there was no lack Of demand while
feeding grain had friends among the
buyers dealing in it. The new crop
is coming on fine and we'll heading
out for the harvest. Late prospect Of
1t is favorable. The old crop was a

ers wanting barley for mailing are
watchful of the arrivals and the de-

hanna county, Pennsylvania, June

removed to the wilds of Wisconsin at
Randolph. There her family and she
went through the experience of the
hardy pioneers and there in '66 she
was married.
In 1882 she came to Stutsman coun-
ty and for IL years she and family
made their home on their farm IA

she experienced the pioneer days of
this territory. In 1893 Mr.. and Mrs.
Chapman removed to jamestown.

FLAXsEED CONDI11oys

Flaxseed came along freely in the
last week. reaching about 200 cars in
Minneapolis and 81 in Duluth. Alto
gether arrivals were some ESQ cars
against less than so cars last year
and for the season about 10000, 900
bushels compared to 5,35S.0OO last
year. The market was weak and low
grades In little request though salable
at the difference in value. Demand
was for current crushing. The new
crop in prospect shows good progress
with a hopeful outlook on the farm.
OF course fax prices are elusive with
values varying from week to week
much more than any of the cereals.
notwithstanding the comparatively
small speculative transactions in the
trade. Prices ranged along from
$500 down to about 50 for the cur
rent offerings. the market closing

up from Lisbon last evening and had
a meeting with Brigadier General w.
c. Truemann, who came in from Bis
marck for the purpose Of discussing
the final arrangements for the camp
at Devils Lake of the state militia.
1t has been expected by the guard
that they would attend the regular
army maneuve at Sparta. Wis, but
owing to the failure OF the army ap-
preparation bill to pass congress this
arrangement has fallen through and
the militia boys will spend ten days
on their W. grounds on the classic
shores of Devils Lake. to which point
they will depart mex Monday:
1t fs expected that the battalion Of
regulars stationed ut Fort Lincoln, to.
gether with the hospital corps of tho
post. will also attend this camp as
heretofore. it being found that the
dual camp of regulars and militia has
been very beneficial to the latter.
General Truemaro went to Grafton

We MUST KNOW OUR SOILS

The great question of the proper
fertilizing of Utah soils was consider
ed In two addresses by DR.. Robert
Stewart of the Department of Chem
istry OF the Utah Experiment station.
In these addresses details we're gone
into in regard to the most advisable
methods of handling the compost on
the farms. DR.. Stewart. who has
studied this question in great detail
advises barn-yard manure as being
the best material to be added to the
soil to prevent its impoverishment..
Among other things he said:
Cultivated soils decrease in crop
power. Barn-yard manure
is the best material to add to the soil
to prevent this. Barn-yard manure
produced on farms of America is wor-
tn Q 1.3 billions Of dollars, yet 1-3 Of
this material is wasted by American
farmers. Take care of the barn-yard
return It toy the soil and
reap a rich reward in increased crop
yields"

RESUME OF Two WEEKS PROGRAM

part in demonstrations in the use of
various labor saving devices in the
home.
The speakers of the Farmers
Roundup began by dealing with prob
lens in irrigation and drainage and
dealt with the duty of water, water
measurements, irrigation of orchard
and general field crops, drainage Of
swampy and alkali lands, etc. The
growing of potatoes was given a great
deal Of attention and this was fol
lowed by lectures covering the pro.
duction OF grasses. forage crops and
sugar beets. Dry-Farming occupied a
prominent place on the program and
lectures pertaining to this phase Of
intermountain agriculture dealt with
the soils. methods OF cultivation and
crops best adapted TO successful dry.
farming. General discussions of til!
lage implements, harvesting and
threshing machinery and other phas
es of farm mechanics occupied a good
portion Of the time. The last two
days of the first week were devoted to
horticultural problems and the grow
ing of various kinds OF fruit on the
different soils OF Utah. During this
time lectures on the general manage.
ment and care OF the fruit orchards
were given.
The second week dealt entirely
with live stock problems and begin
ming with beef types and breeds, on
Monday, each day thereafter was
given over to lectures and discussions
along all lines of live stock produc-
ton. The types, breeds, origin, char.
acteristcs and value of all domestic
animals including cattle, horses,
sheep, hogs and poultry were dealt
with. Problems relative to the dairy
industry occupied two days Of the
weeks work. The fact that a meat
cutting demonstration was given at
the stock judging pavilion yesterday
shows that live stock production was
taken up in detail. This work will
be brought to a close this afternoon
when DR.. HI, Frederick Veterinarian
U. A. c., will lecture on the 'Diseas.
es of Farm Animals"
