GLOOMY REPORTS ON

IN DAKOTA FIELDS

Aberdeen. S. D.. July 2a.-The wheat
crop In northern South Dakota is in
the dough stage-and the worry stage
particularly the latter. An army os
experts has invaded the wheat itclds

the past week, n their reports arc
not very cheering. though not as
gloomy as they might be.
j.. L.. McCaull, of the McCaull-Dins-
more Grain company, Il former resi-
lent Of Aberdeen, came out from Mn
neapolis, accompanied by Frank eros
by, of the Crosby Milling company vi

hours, making individual examinations
of wheat fields. They reported CON
siderable black rust, and Il great zeal
OF wheat. the tops of the heads v
which had been blighted by the not
weather. Mr.. McCaull stated, just prio.
to his departure on Wednesday,, that
the extent of the damage by rust and
blight depended largely upon weather
conditions for the next 10 days.
j. c.. Mcconnell, of the firm Of Lin
coin & Boyd, large holders Of farming
lands in this region, expressed the
opinion hat whea is seriously dam
aged by black rust and blight.
Lyons Bros, real estate men, state
the damage. in their opinion, will ang
from go to so per cent.
A. II. Trask, local manager of the
McCaull- Dinsmore company. sent sam
pies CT the worst specimens of alleged
black rus to the State Agricultural
college at Minneapolis for analysis, and
received a report Thursday that the
expert analysts there could find no
trace Of genuine black rust In m
specimen submitted.
Striking an average. from the vary
ing local statements. it appear that
winter wheat, some of which is ready
to thresh, is safe; early sown spring
wheat will not be greatly damaged,
given favorable weather from now on,
but late sown spring wheat Is In rather
a bad way.
Corn. oats, barley, winter rye, pota-
toes and alfalfa are all doing fine. The
wheat yield is exceptionally heavy this
year. and 1t Is claimed that ever in
fields damaged so per cen the yield
will be what would be accounted an
average yield in an ordinary year.

lowed to lie on the ground only long
enough to dry SO 1t would burn. 1t
was burned in an attempt to put a
stop to the g%rasshopper pest which has
attacked the alfalfa field, and which it
in another year unless the spread is
stopped. The theory was that many OF
the hoppers will be destroyed, and tho
eggs Of anothe year made impotent.
The tract will also be thoroughly
dragged before winter to stir up any
eggs which remai under the surface,
and by bringing them to the surface
destroy them, and prevent a new crop.
Alfalfa raisers find that the hoppers
breed rapidly in their fields, and the
sweet clover tracts also appear to be
