MUCH FLOWING DONE.

News from many sections of the
state, especially from the eastern and
southeastern parts, brings the inform
alton that there is already a great deal
of ploWing done. In some places whole
sections have been stripped Of shocks,
either threshed or stacked. and the
fields are already turned under.
8. In some instances the farmers are
even removing the shocks as they
pIow, and are turning under the land,
setting the shocks over on the plowed
section, so that the somewhat unusual
sight of shocked grain on a plowed
field is to be seen. This early blowing
is the result Of the scare that the
farmers received last fall owing to the
wet season, and the fore handed farm
er is not taking any chances this year
but is taking every advantage of this
fine weather. *@ .r- q
This early blowing will be big
] thing for North Dakota next season.
Not only will it insure very Big acre
age, but plowing at this time is almost
i'as good as summer following The
weeds will get a fine start this fall.
| much Of the weed seed terminating,
and the frost will catch them before
I they have a chance to mature, which
will rid this early plowed land OF a
great deal Of these pests. .
Each day of fine weather now Is
worth vast amount of wealth to the
state, and the farmers are not letting
much of it go to waste.

CURRENT OF IMMIGRATION.

The fiscal year which ended on June
80 was remarkable for the addition it
made to the foreign-born population of
the United States.
IN the closing month of the year the
inflow from abroad amounted to 198,-
451, Of whom 1T6,261 were immigrants.
This was the largest number of immi-
grants ever recorded for the month Of
June, the previous high -ca-!: having
bee2 reached in June, 19O7-17O,5 ,532,
while the June figure last year was
1922 and IN 1911 S1.952.
For the full fiscal year 1928 the
arrivals were 1,427227, compared with
the departures were greater than the
average, amounting to G11,924, SO that
the ret gain IL population by !nrigra-
tion for the year was S15,303. In 1911
IL the net gain was 401,S6 and in
1910-11, 512,0S5. In 1907 it was some
thing in excess of an even 100000.
The net influx of Italians in the late
fiscal year was 1892. The net influx
Of Poles, Russians and Ruthenians was
greater than in any previous year A
larger proportion than usual of the ar
rivals were skilled workmen and a
very large number were farm laborers.
There is reason for the belief that
the efforts to direct the tide of immi-
grafton to the interior have availed as
little during the year 1928 as in re-
cent previous years. Despite all that
has been undertaken to prevent 1t, the
newcomers as a rule insist on sticking
to the vicinity of the eastern seaboard.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
Mr.. Murphy's Last Card.

Baltimore Sun: The letters of The
Suns staff correspondent from New
York note the significant change of
public sentiment in the Sulzer- Tam
many struggle. The people in that
tate, as we'll as elsewhere, are rallying
around Sulzer, not because he is an
immaculate leader, but because they,
prefer his triumph to that of Tam
many, and because he represents an
issue that is all important to popular
supremacy. Mr.. Murphy has played his
last card in this game and it does not
take the trick, because the rights Of
the people are trumps and Sulzer holds
that card. He may be political
sharper, but he is playing for the peo-
pie

Chicago Inter Ocean: The pro-
gressive party Of Cook county and
Illinois is to celebrate the first an
niversary Of its birth on Aug. 80 at
Riverview park. The time is appropri-
ate, Of course. The place, devoted
wholly to entertainment in forms
harmless enough but decidedly frivo-
lous, seems no less appropriate. In
fact, the choice Of the local bull
moose herd" Of Riverview, advertised

BURN OUT THE PESTS.
Apply the Torch to the Roadside and
Get Rid of Insects.

Perhaps there is no place on tho
farm that is a better harhorins place
for insects hat are destructive to
crops than the roadsides. These usu-
ally have a thick growth Of grass and
weeds and as they are not frequently
disturbed the insects from the adjoin-
ing fields seek these for the winter
Such places also form a desirable place
for them to deposit their Eggs and for
the young insects to start. The insects
in such a place al easily be killed if
the work is done in the proper time.
Burning the roadsides and all trashy
places is perhaps the most effective
way to kill the insects therein. but
ever this is not always effective if not
done at the right time. \. great many
people hold to the opinion that the
best time to set fire TO such places is
in the early spring, thinking hat Their
they will catch everything. This is,
however, not always the case and as Il
usual rule Il great many insects escape
being killed. We have had occasion to
see hundreds Of insects wricgle them
selves out Of the ground on a newly
burned road in spring. They were
quite uninjured by the flames, and the
weather being already warm enough
for them without the shelter they APP
parently got along all right.
These insects do not stay only in the
grass, but they go below it, burrOwing
themselves into the ground and crawl
ing deep down among the roots. When
the trash is burned Il great majority
or them are uninjured by the fire. This
Is the great objection to spring burn
ing. for then the weather is usually
modified enough to allow them to live
without the trash protection.
n more successful plan is to burn
these trashy places and roadsides in
the dead of winter. What insects the
fire does not destroy will then be killed
by freezing, for they are as q rule not
covered deep enough to protect them
from freezing without the grass cover
ing. This should not be neglected un-
til the hardest freezing season of the
year is over to make the work most
effective. 1t should receive prompt at
tention.-IO"a Homestead.
