in return for this courtesy has agreed
that DR.. Crane shall have furlough

Dr.. Crane will be directly in the SER

CHICK SEASON
DOESN'T OPEN
!, TILL SEPT. IS
Hunters Mistaken in Belief that
They Can Take to Fields
Tomorrow
WOULD BAN ALL HUNTING
Farmers Want Wild Biddies Pro-
tected So They Can Eat
Up HOppers

North Dakota hunters laboring un-
der the mistaken impression that the
federal game laws on prairie chicken
and ducks have been eased up and
that the season begins September /,
are urged by the state gene depart,
ment to watch their step. for no
change has been made in the game
regulations, and the season does not
open until September 16, as hereto
fore. The impression has become
general for some reason that as a
means of relieving the shortage of
meat foods the season has been adj
anced half month. This, states a
local game warden, is not the fact,
and he assures prospective bird hunt
ers that if they venture forth before
September 1G they will be violating
the law and liable to arrest and prose-
cution. Many hunters, it is stated,
had planned to take the field with
tehir dogs tomorrow.
If farmers of central North Dako
ia and the Slope had their way, there
would be no slaughter of prairie
chickens this year. A state Official
who did some harvesting in the vicin-
ity of Kuhn. and who is familiar with
conditions in Emmons county, says
that the farmers in these districts are
banding together with a view to pro-
tecting the prairie chicken as one OF
the most efficient exterminators Of
srasshoppers Zone has no idea Of
the extent to which grasshoppers have
damaged the crops this year until he
goes into the harvest fields" said
this official today. every night we
shoveled a bushel or more of grass
hoppers out Of our header Jokes. The
prairie chickens have decided fond
ness for these pests, and the farmers
believe that if they are not molested
they will do a great deal to prevent
grasshoppers surviving the fall to rear
a bigger family next year.
In many sections farmers are post
ing notices forbidding all hunting, and
petitions. are being circulated asking
that whole townships join in protect
ing the chicks Prairie chickens are
unusually numerous this year, and
general ban on bunting them will be
disappointment to the hunter, bus
the farmers who have taken the initia-
tive contend that wheat is more essen
tial than good shooting, and that un-
less something is done TO check the
spread of the hoppers they will be-
come real menace next year.

THRESHING AND
HARVEST|I|NGIN
PROGRESS AGAIN
Cars of Wheat Marketed Early
Have Lost Through Moisture
Content

The weather conditions have so i'm
proved the past few days that thresh-
ing and harvesting have again started.
The heavy winds and rains of last
week probably did considerable dam
age to grain in the shock. In various
sections of the northwest grain which
had been cut was, scattered about the
fields and thoroughly soaked. Cars Of
wheat which had been threshed too
soon after these rains have arrived on
the market and, because Of the poor
condition, have lost several grades.
We believe, however, with the Am
proved weather, that the later thresh-
ed grains will show good quality.
Throughout the northwest threshirg
returns are better than at first eX-
pected--in the Red River valley some
exceptional yields of wheat, barley and
oats and rye are reported. This con-
dition prevails in many localities in
Minnesota and South Dakota.
In Montana on the irrigated lands
the yields will show good average
and along the eastern border and the
central and southern parts of the
state where late rains have revived
the crops, averages Of from 10 to II
bushels OF wheat to the acre are pre-
dicted.
In a number of districts the early
flax has been cut and we look for all
early movement of this. While the
temperatures have been low at various
times, we have not heard of any par
ticular damage from frost, so that
much of the late flax may escape dam
age from this cause In Minnesota
and South Dakota there is probably
better than an average yield of FLAX
The corn crop throughout the north
west is maturing in fine shape and
will soon be out of danger: the ears
are large and the quality should he
very high.
Many farmers who stacked their
grain are now starting their fall plow-
ing. The soil is in igood condition,
due to recent rains. and as the season
. is early large amount of fall work
will be accomplished.
There is considerable complaint in
places fthe scarcity of labor, but
volunteers from the towns have been
Of great assistance to the farmers

all probably be we'll taken care Of.
