RUST SHOWING
ON SOME WHEAT

Some light damage to wheat over
the Northwest from red and black
rust is looking for before harvest
time, according to the weekly report
of the Van Dusen Arlington COM
pany, grain commissioners of Min
neapolis. The report of the crop
conditions follows in part:
''As we previously reported, red
rust is very evident in southern Min
nesota and the eastern half of South
Dakota. In few isolated cases, EVIL
dence of black rust has appeared in
the southern half of Minnesota, but
we believe that no damage has as yet
been done. The weather during the
past two or three days has been cool
with good winds, which will hold back
the development Of rust. We have
not heard of any cases of black rust
in South Dakota, North Dakota, Mon
tana or northern Minnesota.
wheat is doing especially we'll in
places where there has not been too
much moisture. This applies espe-
cially to North Dakota, western
South Dakota and Montana, except
the eastern edge.
Barley and oats as rule have a
fine heavy growth, but are liable to
lodge should we have heavy winds.
"Corn is backward in spots, due to
the cool weather and rain, and many
fields show lack Of cultivation. The
condition Of corn as a whole is salts
factory, especially in the southern
territory.
FLAX has held its former condi-
ton, except where damaged by heavy
rains and wind. Eastern North Da-
kota and southern Minnesota report
early fax in blossom. Indications at
present are for one Of the best crops
of fax the Northwest has ever raised.
AS previously reported, the rye crop
is spotted. In eastern North Dakota
and southern Minnesota, there are
many very good fields of rye; and
cutting will begin within few days"

R. C. Dobson, bookkeeper for the
Times-Record, returned to the city
yesterday morning from his vacation
trip at his home at Parker's Prairie,
Mimi Ray says he did considerable
fishing while he was away but up to
this time he has told no big fish stor-
les so that we opine that his fishing
experience was not 50 big. Usually
these fishers tell some great yarns
about their success but Ray is very
quiet on the subject. Anyway he got
all tanned up and looks like the trip
had done him good.

Willie Murphy comes along with a
grasshopper story-but then Murphy
always has a story of some sort to
tell. He claims that last Sunday he
saw a field of rye of about eighty
acres that was partly eaten up by the
grasshoppers. So far we have heard
very little complaint along these lines,
and we hope we will hear no more
damage being done by these pests.

A heavy rain visited this section
last night followed by very much COOL
er weather. The rain seems to have
covered a wide territory. Crop con-

wheat and other small grains being
headed out and coming along nicely.
We have all the moisture we need in
this locality and what is most needed
now is dry, warm weather to mature
the crops.

Tomorrow Valley City is to be host
to the state bankers who have this
year honored US by having their con-
vent;on in Valley City. 1t is expected
that several hundred bankers will be
here to attend this convention and the
Times Record recognizes the fact that
these gentlemen who are engaged IN
tn banking business in this state, have
been a most important factor in the
development Of the state and many
times have been instrumental in It'd
ing things over in the days when we
needed their help. Bankers are a
very necessary adjunct to the bust
ness interests of the state and nation
and we believe that in North Dakota
we have a bunch of men engaged in
this business who are deeply interest
ed in the progress and prosperity OF
the state and each and every one has
been big booster for his particular
locality. 1t is therefore with pleas
ure that we voice welcome to the
city from the city with the hope that
the business sessions of the associa-
ton will be of mutual benefit to all
concerned and that when their atten-
ton is turned to the lighter things
in life entertainment - each and
every one will have real good time
and that they will leave Valley City
with a feeling that they have been
heartily welcome and will feel like
coming here again at some future
time. No doubt the mayor will turn
the keys of the city over Ito the
boys" and tell them to 90 to it and
have the best time that it is possible
for them to do-and we heartily Sec
ond the motion.

imperfections of Mr.. Harding or any
other candidate don't forget the beam
that is in thine own eye. So far as we
can discover the two nominees for the
presidency-Mr. Cox on the demo-
cratic ticket, and Mr.. Harding on the
republican ticket, are both able and
clean citizens, either one OF whom
will make good president if elected.
The only difference Of opinion is one
side thinks a democrat can best serve
as president while we as a republican
believe that the country will be bet
ter governed under a republican ad-
ministration. The voters themselves
next November will decide which they
think will be best. f.. ..s.y

If the election returns are right,
and there is no reason to doubt them,
the nonpartisans will be out of luck the
next session of the legislature. The
independents have nominated a ma
jority of the members of the house
so that if these are elected this fall
that red headed clerk and that black
headed clerk will be a useless adjunct
to the next session because the nod of
the head is not going to vote yes or
no in the next legislature. The rub
Der stamps that will be elected to the
next house will be in a minority and
might as well sleep in their seats for
all the good or bad they might do. In
the senate the result is close. There
will be no more two-thirds vote in
eithr house and if Mr. Townley wants
to change the constitution again to al
low a majority instead of two-thirds
to rule, he will have to do something
more radical than he has in the past.
He cannot unseat any member to give
him the necessary two-thirds next
time like he did the last time. In
other words his power to legislate has
about slipped away.

A few over enthusiastic democrats
are very loud in telling that the re-
publican national convention was gov
erned by bosses and was not real
convention in the sense that the dele
gates had anything to say-they in
innate that it was all done by the
bosses. Every big organization is run
by alleged bosses. There are always
a few leaders who have to whip
things into shape. On the other hand
the democrats have nothing to blow
about. They seem to overlook the
fact that for many days the San
Francisco convention was held in the
hollow of the hand Of the Tammany
forces and was final victory for that
outfit Of notorious politicians. If we
remember rightly the Tammany force
q few years ago was one of the most
crooked political outfits that was in
existence and there is an old saying
that you cannot change the leopard's
spots. So when you get to telling the
