NO WARD COUNTY
FAIR THIS YEAR
County Will Not Aid Organization
and Commercial Club Turns Down
Request to Raise Large Sum

There will in all probability be no
Ward county fair this year. Tho
county commissioners will give no aid
this year and the Minot Commercial
club has decided not to solicit the
sum asked, from $500 to $1,000.
The voters two years ago voted
down the proposition for county aid
and the association would have to
depend entirely upon the gate re-
ceipts to pay the expenses, so it is
believed that no attempt will be made
to hold the fair this year.

FARMERS ARE READY
FOR WHEAT HARVEST
farmers are ready for wheat harves
A Few Warm Days Will Ripen tho
Grain RapidIy-WiII Be Harvestjno
Generally In About Week

The farmers are awaiting anxiously
for the time to begin the harvest of
the greatest crop ever grown in North
Dakota. Last year 72,00O,O00 bush.
els Of wheat were raised in the state
and the estimated yield this year
is double that amount. Out in the
western portion of the state the av-
erage will be fully Is bushels and
perhaps more. Many fields will go
thirty and some hope for more. The
early threshing returns in eastern
South Dakota show that much of the
grain has averaged from 20 to 40
bushels
The weather the past week has
not been very favorable for ripenfn9
the grain, as it has been cool and
rainy. This is very favorable for the
late grain, much of which will rfren
about as soon as the earlier sown
grains. This will make the farmers
step lively and there will be no let
up after the first field is matured.
Harvest hands are scarce enough.
Little or no black rust has appeared
in this section Of the state. Black
rust can do great damage when 1t
appears ten days before the grain
natures, but not much if 1t appears
only four or five days before. No ore
apprehends any danger from frost.
