Many ATTRACTIONS
ARE PLANNED FOR
LEGION CONVENTION
Aug. rs and 26 Will Be Busy Days in
Minot-Barbecue, Ball Games and
Dances, Prize Fights, Mock
Trials, Bands, Etc.

Arrangements are rapidly being
completed for the American Legion
State Convention to be held in this
city Wednesday and Thursday, Aug.
Is and 26.
The chairmen Of the various COM
mittees have met for luncheon at the
Leland hotel Wednesdays for severa!
weeks, with A. D. MCDANIEL, general
chairman, in charge.
At Wednesdays meeting, it was de-
cded to retain the present American
Legion headquarters, with it's exhl-
bit, in the old Wardrobe building on
Main street, until after the conven-
ton.
The Knights Of Pythias band Of
this city has been engaged to furnish
the music during the two days. This
is practically a new organization, but
it is composed Of capable musicians
and is rapidly getting in shape. The
band has donated it's services, but it
is understood that the committee is
preparing to reimburse them in &C

berry eradication work for the govern
ment, and has eight field men at work
They found these bushes in Walsh
Pierce, Grand Forks, Trail and Steele
counties, which are the only counties
that they have worked in so far this
year.
1t has been surprise to great
many people that so many bushes
have been found in some counties
People were sure that there was not
barberry bush in the county and
we'll informed people at that. All the
bushes found were heavily infested
with rust. Which will help account
for the heavy rust infection in the
North Dakota fields. The rust il
also very bad in Minnesota and Wis
consin and in other spring wheat
states where they have found bar
berry bushes.
Dr.. Stakeman Of the University Of
Minnesota, who is, perhaps the best
posted man on rust in the United
States, stated few years ago that il
the barberries were not eradicated in
the spring wheat section, wheat grow
ing would cease to be profitable in less
than twenty years.
1t is hard to understand how the
barberry happened to be planted. As
long ago as 100 farmers in France
noticed that wheat growing near bar
berries was rusted badly, and in
some sections they had laws against
growing barberries. In the Scandina-
Wan countries the same observations
were made and in Denmark, after
they dug out all the barberries they
have had no rust. Some of the East
ern states had laws against the plant
ing of barberries in colonial times.
Professor Bolley Of the North Da-
kota Agricultural college made con-
siderable study of rust in Indiana
and after coming to North Dakota
continued these studies and over 20
years ago gave out warnings against
the danger from the barberries, but
little interest seemed to be taken in
it. When the war came on, Profess
sor Bolley interested the Canadian
government as we'll as i. the govern
ment at Washington, in the danger
of the barberry bushes in causing
rust, so that radication measures were
undertaken and they are still being
carried on in some states but not on
large enough scale.
Mr.. Porter of the North Dakota Ag-
ricultural college reports that in Min
nesota at the experiment station,
where they have been trying out
number of rust-resisting wheats, they
have found that some varieties of rust
are so virulent this year that they
have attacked even the rust-resistant
varieties with the exception of one,
a wheat from India which is no good
for bread-making purposes.

found in his experimental work, that

The billeting committee has all ar
rangements made to take care Of the
guests.
The entertainment committee has
planned so many attractions that they
are having hard time arranging for
time to devote to them. The dele.
gates will find that every minute OF
their time will be taken up. They
are going to be as busy as a kid at
tending his first three ringed circus.
There will be baseball game at
the baseball park between Minot and
Bismarck each day Of the convention.
Bismarck will come here to play five
games, one each day beginning We'd
nesday. All attractions will be free
to Legion men and their ladies.
Arrangements have been made for q

some wheats are resistant to some
varieties Of rust but that they may
not be resistant to other varieties OF
rust. So there seems to be little hope
Of the development Of rust-resist-
ant variety Of wheat, and the only
solution for keeping the spring wheat
crop is the eradication Of the barberry
bush.
II but q small fraction Of the money
that is lost from rust each year was
devoted to the eradication Of the bar
berries, they could be taken out in q
comparatively short time. So the
question that will have to be decided
is, whether we shall have barberries
or spring wheat. If we prefer the
barberries, we will have to 60 with
out spring wheat which makes the
highest quality -four that is produced
in the world today
