Are Fair
Crop lii Ward County

Minot, Sept. 12.-Although early
potatoes are not a successful crop,
the potato yield in Ward county will
be sufficient to assist many farmers to
meet financial obligations which
could not be met if they depended
entirely on their grain. according to
County Agent John HUSKY who, with
&c. w. Couey, potato specialist with
the North Dakota Agricultural col
lege, has just completed a survey Of
potatoes in this county.
Yields will vary from between 1875
to. $50 bushels an acre in the Makoti
section to less than SO bushels in the
Minot, Berthold and Burlington dis
tricts. The rains Of the past week
cannot help early potatoes and many
fields have been planted to Early
Ohios in the north half Of the coun-
ty. There are some fields of late po-
tatoes near Foxholm and Berthold
which will be helped but the rain will
be of general assistance to potato
crops in the southern part Of the
county where late potatoes were
planted.
Although the yield will not be up
to expectation" MI. HUSKY said to.
day, the indications for a fair price
are very good and I believe the pc!
tatoes will be the best paying crop

two former allies would certainly
outvote and overbear them.
Keeping in mind this history. one
may interpret the four-power treaty
quite exactly. But in interpreting IL
one must bear in mind always the
explanation OF whv II was made
America asked. specifically. definitely.
frankly. that the Anglo-Japanese alli-
ance be eliminated. Britain and
Japan accepted in principle the pro-
posal that II be eliminated but de-
manded in return that they have GER
tain benefits which they desired and
which they felt represented a rea-
sonable compensation for the sacrifice
which was asked OF them.
Now the main compensation which
the United States has conceded IL
to Japanese prestige and Japanese
security. We have undertaken to
respect the rights OF the Japanese
in the case of their insular posses
sions and insular dominions in the
region Of the Pacific Ocean. And
this means, despite a certain vague
ness in phrase and lack of charity
in explanation, not only the Japan
csc colonies but the. Japanese home
lands; II does not cover any Japan
csc rights or claims on the main
land of Asia, but IL does cover all
Of the Japanese Empire otherwise.
This represents a concession to
the Japanese desire for security. 1t
means in diplomatic phrase that the
United States promises not to at
tack Japan, not to question Japan
csc title to islands anywhere In the
Pacific. The Japanese representa-
tives can return to their home and
explain to their fellow countrymen
that they have exchanged a treaty
of alliance with Britain for a treaty
of insurance, which guarantees
them against either American or
British attack. Remember that
there has been a Japanese party
which has affected to believe that
the United States contemplated
such an attack and the significance
is clear Against SUCH an. attack
the Anglo-Japanese alliance was
practically valueless. Thus the
four-party treaty represents a
