1OQ,41S MEN
WILL REGISTER
IN SEPTEMBER
Estimated That Cass Coun-
sty Will Have 6,605 In
New Registration ~

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 1O.-R. D.
Hoskins, of the adjutant generals
staff, has prepared for the provost
marshal generals office an estimate
showing that approximately 100,413
men between the ages OF Is and As
will register under the new draft
regulations in September.
The approximation is made on the
governments estimate that the Sep
TENDER registration will be about
one and one-half times as great as
that Of June, 1917.
In June. 1917, North Dakota reg
istered 66,934 men; in June, 1918, it
registered 5000 men, and if it reg
listers 100,413 men in September it
will have a total Of 172,437 men
classified for military service out of
a. population aggregate Of $4,000.

Much Smut Found
In CaSS County

The spring wheat Of North Dakota
contains a high percentage of smut.
In some localities in North Dakota
this loss runs as high as 90 per
cent. The oats barley and winter
wheat are found to run as high as 30
per cent. The losses from these dis
eases in North Dakota alone amount
to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The department of agronomy Of
the North Dakota Experiment sta
ton, in cooperation with the United
States department of agriculture
has arranged a state Smut survey
through the county agricultural
agents. There are now eight men
from the United States department
Of agriculture working with the
county agents to locate the smutted
areas Of the state.
Inspector Martin Of the United
States department Of agriculture,
was here last Friday and covered
most of Cass county with County
Agent Richards. Altogether too much
and considerable in the oats and
barley throughout the county.
County Agent Richards recon-
mends that the farmers Of the coun-
ty observe carefully the condition OF
their crop at the present time, as
the observation can be made while
the grain is in the shock as we'll as
earlier in the season.
Next spring the department af eag-
riculture will take steps toward a
campaign to extermlnale smut by
treating all seed. This practice
which was quite common several
years ago, has been neglected of
late with bad results TO the crop
yield. ~
Present government estimates
place the yearly loss of wheat due
to smut equivalent to 100000 bar
rels Of flour. The loss of oats is
great enough to feed 100000 cav
airy horses. Enough barley and rye
are thus wasted tosmaxe 100000 bar
rels Of wheat flour substitutes.
Surely when the allies are so
greatly in need Of bread, you can do
nothing more patriotic than treat
your seed grain, for smut
