headed that way, and that the state
needs $4,000 more men. JOHN 3
Deets, agricultural commissioner a
Pierre, S. D., says nineteen counties
alone have need for 5000 men, thai
$4,000 men will be needed in Soutl
Dakota, that the department. mas bee,
able to secure only about 100 men {
day so far and that every man comm:
to South Dakota can get work. J. H
Hall, commissioner of agriculture a
Helena, Mont, reports that the ettler:
of this year are all taking to the har
vest fields, that men from the mine:
and numbering camps are going to
work as harvesters, but that Montana
will need 5000 more men. E. c. Lee
dy, immigration commissioner Of the
Great Northern, estimates that 10000
men are needed along the line of that
system and allowing for the fact tina,
the requisition of the Great Northern
for common points with the Northern
Pacific or 500 line such as Valley City
or Minot, includes all that will be
needed in these two other roads each
need 10000 additional men for point
on their systems not common to the
Great Northern. D. J. Bricker of the
Northern Pacifc's immigration depart

ever known. With all duplicate re-
QUESTIONS eliminated, the call is strong
for 10000 men for the four states.
Paul J. Wedge of velva, N. d.. has
asked the 500 road to help the situa:
ton by making known the fact that
a great hay crop is ready. velva and
Underwood, N. D., with many othe,
points offer the opportunity for mel
to work at haying and to then take up
the regular grain harvest and work at
threshing still later.
Harvest to Start Soon.
Some early spring wheat has already
been cut in South Dakota, but the
wheat harvest will not be genera. in
that state until late next week. Al
that time harvesting will be in full
swing in Southern Minnesota where
the small grain has already been cut
in part. But the harvest will not be.
gin in Northern Minnesota and North
Dakota until August 10, and men going
out now can find work in the hay fields
and be on the ground ready for the
cutting Of the grain. Where barley
and oats are now being cut, moro men
are needed for that work. Some rye is
still being harvested, though most Of
it is in, and there is abundant cpoo>
tunity for work for any man who
strikes a station where the wheat still
lacks a week or ten days of being ripe,
Good Pay Offered.
All the way from $1.75 to $3.50 q
day with board may be earned BY
harvesters.

CRY FOR HELP CON-
T|NUES over n. W.
The Situation.

Sixty thousand men needed in
Minnesota, North and South Da-
kota and Montana.
Never before SO good an oppor-
tunity for continuous employment
for men going into the fields.
The influx Of labor from Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Nebraska to
South and North Dakota likely to
be smaller than usual because of
last years comparatively poor
crops in portions of the two states.
The opportunity greater for
Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth or
Chicago men going out.
The pay $1.75 to $3.50 a day,
and board, depending upon the ma
ture Of the work and former ex-
perience.
The Harvest Time.
Barley and oats now being har
vested in South Dakota and in
southern Minnesota.
Wheat harvest will begin by
the end Of next week in South Da-
kota.
Wheat harvest will begin about
August 10 in northern Minnesota
and North Dakota.
Haying now under way in many
places in Minnesota, and North
and South Dakota, affording EN-.
ployment for men who might ar
rive before the wheat has ripened.
Sixty thousand men are needed in
the harvest fields Of Minnesota, North
and southt Dakota and Montana
where a crop that country advices to
the railroads say is going to break ev.
cry productive record in the history Of
the northwest is rapidly reaching ma.
turity. The greatest cry for labor ev.
er heard in the vast country west and
north from Minneapolis is growing lou.
der every day.
Unlike any labor situation ever fac.
before, that in the northwest today is
peculiarly acute, because, last year, the
South Dakota and Southern North Da.
kota crop losses broke the continuity
Of employment which in every year for
decade has sent the labor wave from
Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska thru
Iowa, northward cross South Dakota
and into North Dakota and Minnesota
Last year and to some extent in the
year before, a vast country from the
South Dakota line to the first tier Of
southern North Dakota counties fell
below in labor requirements and the
long unremunerative travel stretched
across, turned back, at that time, thou.
sands of laborers from the winter
wheat fields who would have moved
north.
Work for Every Man.
This year that same territory has
the greatest crop it ever raised and
efforts are being made to inform the
southern laborers of the situation, that
they may come up, in view Of the Ger.
talnty that even with their help and
all the men that St. Paul and Mime.
apolis and Duluth can find, that east
canada may contribute and Chica "a
and other centers send out, there will
be work for every man.
The states need these men:

THE SECOND VISITATION OCCUR,
RED AT ST. THOMAS WITHIN
A SHORT TIME.
BAD WIND EXPERIENCED AT
HENsE1-BARN OVERTURNED
FARM HAND INJURED.

Grand Forks, N. D., July
20. For the second time
within a very few days, the
territory in the vicinity of St.
Thomas, N. D., Saturday
night was struck by one OF
the worst hail storms it has
known,a far as can be learn
ed now, 81 farmers in that
section lost practically all
their crops. The list will be
enlarged by complete re-
ports. A bad wind storm,
which at times reached eye
Ionic proportions, was re-
ported west of Hensel, and
one man was injured and
considerable property des-
troyed. s..
The farm territory, about
three miles north of Hensel,
was also visited by a hail
storm, but the extent of the
damage cannot be learned,
as tel phi one connections
could not be secured in that
vicinity. St. Thomas report
ed bad storms north along
the line to Glasston and
Hamilton, but the telephone
lines were out of order and
nothing could be learned re-
garding it.
St. Thomss Situation Worst.
The St. Thomas hail storm
did the greatest damage,
wiping out the crops of 81
farmers and doing a great
deal of damage in town.
Practically all of the wind
ows in St. Thomas were
broken by the hail stones,
while the wind worked havoc
with some of the poorly con-
structed buildings.
The roof Of the livery barn was blown
off, and several other buildings were
blown over. A number Of the granar.
les on the farms in that territory were
also blown over. The hail stones meas.
ured about three inches and a half.
The storm cut swath about ten
miles wide and fifteen miles long. It
started at point about seven miles
northwest Of st. Thomas shortly after
z O'Clock and swept straight east for
short distance, when it turned to the
south. It travelled in that direction
for a short time and then swerved
east again, ending at point about
nine mile southeast Of St. Thomas.
It was impossible to learn how bad
the hail storm north of Hensal was.
It stormed three miles north Of that
place at about the same time.
Wind Does Damage.
The wind storm north Of Hensel was
one Of the worst that section Of the
state has had. It was reported as a
veritable cyclone, which left humble,
in its wake. On the Joe Simonsen
farm, located about seven miles north
west Of Hensel, the barn was blown
over burying six horses and one of the
farm hands in the debris. When the
man, who's. name could not be learned
was extricated, it was found that one
hip had been dislocated. The horses
were removed from the wreckage un
injured. As far as can be learned the
one man was the only one who was
injured.
Bowesmont, N. D., reported heavy
rain storm, but no hail. Rain was re
ported at Hoople and Cavalier.
