BLACK RUST, SAYS EXPERT

Jos. P. Hess, vice president Of the
First National bank OF Mandan, sent
anumber OF samples Of wheat to par
ties in Minneapolis for examination.
as there has been a great divergence
OF opinion as to whether it was red
rust or black rust that was blighting
the tn',og crop. and in reply received the
"Your samples show black rust Of
the worst kind and the fields from
which you got these samples will not
have anything In them but chicken
feed. Red rust is the beginning Of
black rust, which develops under
proper conditions and moist, warm
weather, and you have had the ideal
weather for this development in
North Dakota. The first stages, which
You call red rust, shows no perfora'
tons on the stalk. This is fungus
growth, and the fungus will blow
around in the air from the red rust
and II the weather 10 moist 1t will
adhere to the stalk. Then II the
weather is favorable 1t develops
creeping along the stalk until it finds
a weak spot, when II will send Its
tentacles through and sap out all Of
the life that comes from the ground
up to that point. That is why from
the time black rust strikes grain
there is no further development Of
the grain. It simply shrivels up and
amounts usually to nothing.
Think you had better recognize
the fact that your crop will be very
small in the neighborh0od Of Man

that North Dakota, South Dakota and

BY r. n. ThistIethwaite

While not Boosting the rugged seem
cry, abrupt contrasts and vast wood
ed and mountain areas OF some OF the
more generally known show states,
nevertheless, North Dakota is far
from being monotonous in her prairie
landscapes, and, in modified but
wholly artistic way, can lay claim to
many beauty spots which are well
worth the attention Of lovers Of Ma
ture who, as tourists, may be seeking
attractive visions of field and stream.
About the middle of the northern
boundary line of the state, which d.
vides it from King Georges domains
in Canada, rise the Turtle Mountains,
a group of wooded hills, interspersed
with brilliant lakes and ripping
streams, we'll calculated to give the
casual sojourner pause and cause him
to linger for a few. days among these
unexpected surroundings, set back by
Nature from the adjoining prairies-
a back eddy as it were. replete with
legendary "reminiscences OF the time,
not long ago, when the Indian, in his
birch bark canoe and old-time hunt
ing optfit. furnished the only human
contrast to the primeval setting Of
Nature.
Southeast from the Turtle noun
tains is to be found the famous Devils
lake, another vivid contrast to the
generally undulating prairie contours.
Wooded slopes, rocky outings into
the lake itself, long vistas OF clear
water with pleasant surprises Of land
locked bays, each beauty spot in it.
self, constitute the main features Of
this scenic haven for those who love
to study and admire the out-of-doors
when time, wind and weather have
wrought together that the passing
generations might look and wonder.
Travelling westward and southerly,
crossing the beautiful James River
valley, which wends its way in gen.
orally southeasterly direction thorugh
the central part Of the state, the ma

TEUTON FOOD SITUATION
DECLARED DESPERATE
American Government Forced to
Send Supplies to Embassies and
Consulates in Central Powers.

LONDON. November 2s.-The Daily
Mail today makes a feature story of
what it describes as highly authentic
information that the food situation In
both Germany and Hungary is
more desperate than had hitherto been
generally believed. This information is
based on what is claimed to be the
necessity of the American officials in
both countries to send urgent demands
home for supplies of food. The food
supplies. it is said. are now arriving
and are being placed in depots under
the yigilant supervision of American
officials
The newspaper says its informant de-
few weeks have reported to Washing
ton that their ration tickets are use
less, as there is little or no food to ra-
ton the nation, and that the action of
the American government in fastening
supplies of food to them is only inter-
preted in the light of showing that the
American embassies and consulates
now regard the food situation in Aus
tria and Germany with the greatest
possible anxiety.
In an editorial dealing with this
story the Daily Mail says it explains
the peace intrigues which the Ger
States and elsewhere" and urges the
British government to exert every pos
sible pressure. especially the tighten
ing of the blockade. to prevent Ger
many from taking advantage of the
seizure of the corn lands of Rumania.
