DURUM WHEAT
PRIZE OFFERED
w. F. Converse of Minneap-
oils Declares Quality Of
Durum is Deteriorating.

A first prize Of $40 for the best
half bushel of durum wheat, and q
second prize of SIS, for the Grand
forks fair next year, has been offered
by William f.. Converse, Of Mime
apolis, the largest exclusive handler
of durum wheat in America, with
Hallet & Carey Co.
1.-THE Quality Of durum wheat in
the Northwest during the past, few
years has been de~teriorating," de-
clared Mr.. Converse this morning,
while the demand for 1t has in
creased 40 per cent during the past
,ear.
"Durum wheat originated in ST.
IBERIA, but because Of a drouth vas
brought to this country 20 years ago.
The best durum wheat is now raised
in the western part of North Dakota.
1t is used greatly for package goods
such as Creamettes, Spagetti, Mac
aroni, and other cereal %Nproducts.
'To attain the top price for durum
wheat, it should be of an amber col
or, and as free as possible from soft
starchy kernals. If the farmers OF
the northwest fail to take more in
terest in the growth of the wheat
than at present, the grain will not
be produced in a large enough guam
tity to fill domestic needs"
Mr.. Converse is now introducing
the durum wheat in large quantity
into Canada. If proper interest is
shown by the farmers hereabouts
next year. the prizes will be doubled
for tn following fair.

Backman Animal Show at the
North Dakota State Fair grounds

Lady and children visitors Mt
the animal shows this afternoon
and tomorrow will be allowed to
hold the young lions in their

cute and fuzzy that the desire to

most irresistible.
Mrs. Goldie Backman takes
great pride in the cubs as she has
raised Sultana, the mother from
birth nearly five years ago, and in
its earliest days kept her alive by
feeding her from a milk bottle.
This litter Is the first Sultana has
ever borne and Mr.. Blackman,
owner and trainer of the Back

that the litter are the healthiest
trio of cubs ever born in captiv-
ity.
The three young lions are to be
christened for Governor Lynn j.

and Secretary Don V. Moore of
the fair association. Tho name

Many complaints are being heard
regarding the reckless speed Of the
special fair ground livery taxies
which defy the speed laws of the city
in their wild chase after passengers.
The drivers r especially careless
on the return trip to the city where
they want to return as fast as posi-
BILE in order to find new fares, and po-
lice officers as we'll as civilian pedes-
TRANS have many tales to tell of the
barely avoided accidents to which 9TH

lessness of the livery drivers.
Today the police have decided to
put a stop to the practice. and speed
ers will be taken in and have their
special licenses removed. It is said
that this years unusual traffic has
taught the police a number Of useful
lessons which will be put to practical
tests today and tomorrow as well as
