immigration is only one of several
matters on which Prof. Wilson is
compelled to unsay things which he
said in ather connections before he
entered politics. He attacked mem.
bers of labor unions in talk two OF
three years ago, as being less efficient
as workers than those who were out.
side of those organizations He has
been on two or three sides of the
question Of the initiative, the refer
endum and the recall. Just what side
he holds on those subjects at this mo
ment is not known to the general pub
lie, but probably it will be divulged
before the campaign ends. These
continual shifts make him rather un
stable. Nobody can, with any conf
dence, say what he would do on any
important question If he should hap
pen to be elected. This uncertainty
as to where he will stand two or three
months hence is a weakness to Prof
Wilson. If he is defeated in Novem

ness and variability will get large
part of the blame for it. VI,

THOSE STANDARD BEARERS.

Those Of the staunch and true in.
the Stand-Pat ranks bumped up
against real problem when the ques-
ton as to who they would support for
congress in the third district was put
up to them. They carry too much
hatred for D. p. Norton, the republi-
can nominee for congress in that dis
tricts SO have decided to flop to the
Democratic ranks unless their fellow
servant, Simpson, can trump up suf-
ficient grounds to start action to con-
test the vote at the June primaries.
And these are the fellows who have
been constantly shouting, stand by
the ships, boys, and boost for the Re
publican ticket"
If this sort of double cross1ng is go
ing to be carried on by the old party
standard bearers, we wonder what
will be done when voting and they
come to the name Of Thomas Hall, or
Andrew Miller? Surely it win be
against the grain for these gangstera
to help place the man in Office whom
they campaigned and worked
against. But then, nothing seems "a
harm the conscience Of these gang
sters, and the depth Of their gall has
never been sounded, more than likely

NORTH DAKOTA WHEAT CROP.

Everybody agrees that the wheat
crop now being harvested in North
Dakota is the largest in the states
history, but, as usual on the occasion
Of bumper crop, full advantage is
being taken of the fact by those in
terested to beat down the price of the
product by spreading exaggerated re
ports Of acreages and yields. The
fact that yields are commonly being
reported ranging from rs bushels to
the acre and upwards by no means
indicates that the average yield for
the state will even approximate that
figure. Thousands of acres have been
struck by hail, involving loss vary
ing from few bushels to the acre 70

cur until after the presid ential cleo
ton, when business affairs have again
resumed their normal functions. but
that it will come IS assured, and the
wise man is the one who anticipates
events by making his investments
now. When $40 an acre land returns
its full price from the net profit Of
one crop, as will be done in thousands
Of cases in North Dakota this present
year, it does not require much Of q
prophet to foretell that the time is
imminently at hand when new scale
Of prices will be established which
will more nearly conform to the earn
ing power Of the land, and that the
selling price will most certainly be
doubled in a very short time.

farming is still being praeticed and
many pieces which, under good farm
ing methods, might have given mag
nifcent yields, will now possibly not
sproduce a yield above the average Of
the past ten years. For these rea-
sons and conceding the ideal climatic
and soil conditions which have pre-
vailed during the season, it is mani
festly unfair to give the state credit
for so much larger crop than win
actually be harvested, as to inevitably
lower the price while the product is
yet in the farmers hands.
It is mainly along the line Of acre
ages that this exaggerative spirit Is to
be observed. One firm puts the fig-
ures at 8,250,O00 acres for the state,
with yield Of seventeen bushels to
the acre, making the total yield, 14O.-
250,O0O bushels. Another estimate,
based upon few correspondents in
each county, places the average yield
at 17.9 bushels, The federal estimate
even places the acreage at S,144,0O0,
although conceding a smaller acreage
by eleven per cent. than in 1911 The
state figures on yield will not be gath
cred until the assessors make their
rounds next spring, but these same
assessors while performing their du-
ties in the spring OF 1912, visiting as
they did every forty-acre subdivision
in the state, only found an acreage Of
5373,O00, or nearly million acres
less than the highest figures given
above. Conceding that an average
yield Of II bushels to the acre will be
threshed, this would indicate total
for the state Of about 1875, OOO. 900, truly
a remarkable crop, but many million
bushels less than are being claimed
by some

LEADS THEM ALL.

Taking general average Of the
conditions Of all crops in North Da-
kota on August 1, 1912, figuring 100
as representing average conditions,
we find that our state leads all the
rest by very handsome margin with
1876. Colorado comes next with
114.2; then follow West Virginia,
1884; Wyoming, with 1909; Oregon,
f11O.6; Iowa ITO; Arizona, 1882; Min.
nesota, 1918. The group composed Of
the states Of Minnesota, Iowa, Nilsson
ri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Ne
braska and Kansas, has an average Of
1862, also the highest of any. l5,sig.
These figures are very significant
when considered in connection with
the strong westward movement of
home-seekers and indicate very hea-
Wy movement in real estate within the
next few months. This may not oc-

WILSON ON IMMIGRATION.

IF we can hit upon a standard
which admits every voluntary immi-
CANT" says Prof. Wilson, in an ad-
dress in New York, "and exclude
those who have not come of their own
motion, with their own purpose OF
making a home and a career for them
selves, but have been induced by
steamship companies or others to
come in order to pay the passage
money, then we will have what we
will all agree upon as Americans z.
: This was addressed particularly to
editors of foreign language newspa-
pers, many of whom were present at
the gathering. AS a presidential can
didate, Prof Wilson finds his recent
views on the immigration issue very
troublesome. T.. 4<E
There is wide divergence between
the professors present position on
immigration and that which he held a
few years ago. In one Of his his.
torica1 works he attacked the Italian,
Hungarian and Polish incomers, and
said that they were less desirable ac-
cessions than were the Chinese. AS
that was intended to be serious
work, he undoubtedly expressed ma.
tured convictions in it.. Speaking in
cold blood, without any expectation at
that time that he would ever be a
candidate for any political Office, he
must have meant exactly what he
said. Nobody paid any especial atten.
ton to Prof Wilson's words in his
history, until he, year or two ago
after being elected governor Of New
Jersey, began to be mentioned in con
nection with the presidential candi
dacy. Then his expressions rose up
to embarrass him. Since the nomina.
ton has come to him his words are
not only embarrassing, but they are
hurtful to the Democratic party
whose standard-bearer he chances to
be. ::

FIELD SELECTED HOME GROWN
SEED CORN GIVES THE BEST
RESULT.

Good seed corn was scarce and high
priced this spring. From the present
outlook this experience will be res
peated next spring, unless immediate;
steps are taken to secure home grown.
seed for next year. It is up to the
farmers who have good field of q
suitable variety Of corn to select their
seed soon. This should be done, as a
rule, not later than September 10th.
Gather the best developed and the
earliest maturing ears from the stand
ing stalks. These ears should be se-
lected with regard to definite type and
variety. n
The selected ears should be husked
and strung, racked or hung up in such
a way that they will not touch but will
dry out rapidly. Any open, well ven
tilated building with good roof will
make good drying place. Do not
hang the ears above q bin Of grain, in
the stable or in any place that Ii
poorly ventilated or damp.
In curing seed corn the essential
thing is to secure su11s Client ventila
ton and circulation Of air so that the
moisture will be carried away from
the ear. After curing and when prop
erly dried, the seed must be stored
in dry. well ventilated room II
most farm houses the attic is the besl
place to store. It is essential tina,
this should be kept where no damp
ness will affect it. and it is best K
protect it from severe freezing.
If seed is handled in this manner
it may be planted a week or ten days
earlier next spring than such seed al
will need for next years seed.
