SPRING WHEAT

The acreage of spring wheat in 1919
was much greater and up to June we
had the promise Of the very best crop
on record, yet the weather conditions
in many localities were such that in
Minnesota, North and South Dakota
only about 114,00O,000 bushels were
harvested, much Of it being very chaffy,
scabby and snutty and unfit for seed.
More than 100000 bushels have
already been marketed and our seed
requirements for the three states are
about 10, 600 900 bushels.
AS every gram man knows, the
wheat 10Y being shipped is badly mix
ed, full Of trash and light in weight,
making much of it unfit for seed.
SO it therefore becomes imperative
that all of those interested in the pros
perity Of the Northwest should unite
for action, make a local survey Of seed
conditions and where there is a sur
plus Of good seed, make it known, and
where there is a shortage, Immediately
locate proper seed and make some ar
rangement for financing 1t and distrib,
uting it to the farmers. If there is
any 1913 wheat at your station Of good
quality, you should see that 1t Is
held for seeding? Don't mix II in with
the new wheat to make grades. You
might possibly save q fraction Of @
cent, but you will sacrifice many bush
els in the next crop.
The farmer must first become pros
porous before any n can prosper.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1920-02-05

Red Durum wheat, known as "D5,"
put out some years ago has been found
to be a dismal failure on account Of
.ack of milling quality.
There is much of it offered for sale
4ais year for seed. 1t made a pretty
Iair crop and went through rust fairly
well, but there was no market for it
last year except the government which
took it because it was wheat. The
millers did not want it, the macaroni
lei did not want it. SO all that was
eft for it vas to sell it at a big dis
Dunt for grinding into chicken iced.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1920-02-05
FROZEN SEED

Wheat which has been stored in the
bin so 1t has been subject to moisture,
freezing and thawing, after sitting
sn0tv and driving rains, will be sure to
have II large percentage Of the grains
entirely dead and many others so weak
That 1t viii be impossible for them to
Band up plants sufficiently strong to
be Of much crop value,
Test your seed IN biottei. 1t should
grow 93 per cent strong,
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1920-02-05

Beware of it. 1t is a positive men,
ace. 1t is not a Durum nor a Fife, al
though crossbred from them both.
While it is called Red Durum, it should
not he COMPOUNDED with Kubanka, Ar
nautka and other amber Durums
which, while their market is limited.
are excellent for macaroni. etc.
There is no market for so-called
crust proof wheat. Do not seed it
under any circumstances. 1t is no
good. 1t is not only worthless itself,
but if it becomes mixed With your
other grain. it will ruin it.

PERSONETTE
By Niksah.
A DIRECTORS, MEETING.

The directors of the American
Legion from all over the country
have been having meeting in the
War Risk Insurance building to
talk about all the things directors
talk about They meet in large
room, full Of shiny yellow tables
and chairs and blue with cigar
smoke. Into this room there
blundered the other day very in
experienced, young and timid wom-
an reporter. One Of the kind gen.
tlemen gave her q chair at a long
table and a pile Of minutes two
inches thick with the suggestion
that she glance through them to get
the gist of the meeting, and left her
to her own despairing bewilder-
ment.
1t was the smoke that bothered
this fair reporter. She perceived
that many men were sitting around
in the hard. dry, frowning, sleepy,
knowing mood peculiar to men at
meetings. She heard them rise,
one after the other, and make COM
plicated and formal remarks to the
chairman. But all these goings on
were SO shrouded in a mist of
smoke that she felt far removed
from them and helpless. A gen.
tleman from Columbia arose, CIV
ing a dimly wavering impression
through the haze, and announced
that there was dastardly work afoot
to dissolve the War Risk bureau.
Senator Smoot, no less, had de-
clared that he wanted it abolished
as a department wholly incapable
of carrying on the work. The gen.
tleman from Columbia, one Jones
by name, plead that Smoot should
be thwarted, with an earnestness
which caused him to culver in ev-
cry limb. Or else the smoke made
him seem to quiver-the fair re-
porter couldn't be sure. Then 9TH
er gentlemen from other places
arose and spoke through the grey
ness concerning other senators.
But the lady reporter ceased to take
notes and sank into a coma. She
was aroused by a gentle touch on
her arm, and turned to see the
kindly old naval captain seated next
to her holding an unlighted cigar in
his hand, probably the only man
in the whole room who was not
holding a lighted one.
Il beg your pardon" he said
sweetly, but would it bother you
if l should smoker"
