WESTGARD WILL
VISIT THIS CITY
he HAS REACHED CHICAGO ON
HIS COAST TO COAST TOUR
AND IS EXPECTED TO CONE
HERE EARLY DURING COM.
ING MONTH.

Fargo Is on the map so far as one
OF une routes that are being planned
Tor q coast to coast automobile road.
On Tuesday afternoon, June II, Al.
L. Westgard, American Automobile
association field representative, left
New York in a pathfinder touring car
TO lay out three new transcontinental
trips on the line OF the trail to sun
set" which he has already covered
three times. MI. westward made rapid
progress to Chicago, arriving on Mon
day afternoon. June IL.
On his way from New York. MI.
Westgard took notes OF the detours
necessary at present, particularly
those due to new construction and re-
pair work in New York state. From
Chicago west he is taking complete
road notes to be issued in the form Of
new strip maps covering that import
ant route in detail. After working
his way from Chicago to milwaukee,,
st. Paul and Minneapolis. he is now
laying a route across North Dakota
and Montana into washington, ex-
pecting to reach Anaconda, Mont, in
time for he good roads convention
on July 8. From Anaconda he will
proceed 10 Seattle which will com
plete the first leg Of his long Jour
ney, and for the first time provide
complete notes from New York to
Seattle by the most direct route.
The interest in this undertaking is
best indicated by the fact that from
the very beginning Mr.. Westgard has
been met by not only representatives
OF A. A. A. clubs, but also by good
roads associations. representatives OF
boards Of trade and chambers of COM
merce, etc A great deal of competi-
ton has arisen between different
points on the line for the honor of
being included in these t~ransconti-
mental routes, which will be standard
lied and popularized within the next
YEAR. To get a transcontinentaI route
through a city or town means addi-
tional business and prestige. En-
thusiasm has run very high, and on
several occasions interested parties
have sent delegations to meet and
pilot Mr.. Westgard over important
routes.

Recent Hot Weather just What Was
Needed I'm Grain Fields.

e. VanHouten. well known crop au-
thority, has just returned from a trip
over northern Minnesota and North
Dakota. To a Forum representative
Mr.. Van Houten stated this morning,
that everything is as favorable as
possibly can be in North Dakota and
northern Minnesota. However, crops
are more advanced in the Red river
valley than anywhere. Seeding was a
little late in the western part of North
Dakota and in the northern part Of
Minnesota owing to various circum-
stances which the farmers in the vail
ley did not have to contend with.
There has been some talk in sew
eral publications about the lateness of
the crops, but that does not apply to
the Red ~rivervalley Also there is
some feeling that the late hot period
has not been beneficial to h crops.
That is not the case, the weather we
have been having is just what vas
needed and the fields show for them
selves"
