DURUM FIELDS ARE
ATTACKED BY ERCOT

Unusually large quantities Of ergot
in durum wheat fields are alarming
farmers Of Langdon and vicinity who
are not familiar with this growth, is
the statement made by County Agent
W. T.. Johns of Cavalier county.
GAS a rule, ergot attacks wheat very
sparingly, but is fairly common IN
rye" says Mr.. Johns. However, !
have received several samples Of dur
UNI wheat lately containing a large
amount Of ergot. This is a fungus
growth. Just as, is wheat rust and
smut. The kernel Of wheat in the
head becomes infected, and the fungus
growth takes the place of the kernel
somewhat the same shape, and purple
in color. The end Of the growth may
grade from purple to an ash-grey.
"After threshing, these affected
kernels are difficult to separate from
the grain. 1t is dangerous for feed
ing cattle, as. it may cause abortion
and poisoning. The ergot may pc
found in the field by examining heads
which appear to be dirty colored and
blighted. In the first stages, a sticky
yellow or light grey fluid may be seen
on TIE head, apparently coming out
from the kernel. Shell out such
heads, and if a purple kernel is found
the disease is ergot. As it is too late
TO do anything to control the disease
this year. and as it seldom appears
in large suantities: there is no use be-
ing alarmed tits presence now"

p millions for Defense"

Charles G. Pinckney was one Of
three ENJOYS sent by the United States
to France in 1907 to settle disputes
which had arisen between France and
the United States.N, The American
grievance was caused by the seizure
Of American vessels by France. The
French grievance was that commercial
privileges had been granted to England.
Talleyrand, the French foreign minis
ter, refused to receive the ENJOYS, but
it had been conveyed to them by secret
agents that before any settlement
could be reached it would be neces-
sary for the United States to pay q
large sum Of money, which was, in
fact, little more than bride. 1t
was then that Pinckney made his IA
nous declaration that the United
had millions for defense, but not one
cent for tribute"

GREEK TARTAR breaches
new GOSPEL Of HEALTH
Says Man Has Three Person.
aIities, Seeks Fourth to Con-
troll the Other Three.

Constantinople.-A new gospel Of
health-that man is not one, but
three, and that he cannot function
fully until his three personalities are
In harmOny-has come here from the
middle East on the tide Of Russian
and other refugees from far coun-
tries. +.
This gospel is proclaimed by a
small, dark man of mystery, Greek
Tartar, G. l. Gurdjieff. He has con-
tributed to the meager intellectual
life of the city new throb.
The outward and primary form Of
his teachings begins with dances bor-
roweG from the Mosques Of Persia
and the temples of India. He puts
some Of his patients on bread and
water for months at a time but re-
quires them, all the while, to carry
on the most violent exercises which
conform to the music of q piano.
Gurdjieff's teachings have some sim.
ilarity with the ancient Greek concep.
tons Of the development Of mental
force and bodily grace and activity.
He is persuaded that his teachRgs
will change the art Of living. Ha&a
gathered about him a group Of con-
verts who say they are going to spread
his theories westward, some going to
the United States. He says he was
taught by Russian physicians and
psychologists.
I'm harmony there is health" de-
clared Gurdjieff, "The western world
of medicine and psychology has never
grasped the truth that man is not con-
trolled by one personality, but by
three, and when these three are not
in harmony man says he is sick A
sick man, a man with that tired feel
ing, is like horse and carriage with.
out a driver. The man is not master
Of himself.
"Civilization has led man away from
himself, physically and spiritually.
Too much use Of the head has dehar-
nonized him. Man is composed of
three parts, just like machine. One
part thinks, one feels and one eats
and sleeps. If man thinks too much,
or eats too much, or sleeps too much,
he falls i'll.
my plan is to first put the three
back into q common unity, and then
gradually develop fourth personality
which controls the other three. II
this fourth personality, or dominating
consciousness, is not developed, the
three men in the same body never
establish contact with each other, and
the anarchy we call sickness destroys
him."

GET FIGURES ON PuREBREDs
Bureau OF Census Completing Tabuia.
tien for States Not Vet Shown
in Reports.

On account Of the great Interest
which the United States Department
Of Agriculture finds has been shown
in census figures Of purebred live stock
In ten representative farm states, the
bureau Of the census Is proceeding
with plans to complete the tabulation
for the remaining states. This work
10 receiving the hearty cooperation OF
the United States Department of Agrt-
culture. Live stock specialists OF the
department regard such figures as
very valuable as factors in production
problems, and as indicating develop
ments in the Improvement Of domestic
animals in this country. ~
It is understood that the 1nal census
figures pertaining to purebred live
stock on farms will be available at the
same time the general live stock hg-
ures are furnished. 1t Is thought that
this will be some time during the COM
ing summer. Breeders and breeders
associations interested in this work
have already indicated their apprecia-
ton of the value Of the figures thus far
available. It is the hrst time in the
history of any country that accurate
figures on the total number of purebred
animals on farms have been compiled.

DO NOT EAT RATTLERs
Doctor Bryant Denies That King
Snakes Go on Hunts.

Doctor Bryant Denies That King
Snakes Go on Hunts.
One of Yosemite National parks
most interesting snakes is the king
snake. Doctor Bryant, who will be one
Of the nature guides this season, de-
clares that its beautiful landings of
white, black and red remind him of
the beadwork of the Mojave Indians of
Arizona. The king snake was a great
favorite Of forty-niner gold seekers.
Finding it throughout the country
infested by rattlesnakes, snake stories,
with the ready Imagination of that
time, were soon told of its hunts for
big rattlers. These yarns finally crys-
tallized into the we'll known mountain
superstition. S~ ,s
The king snake does eat other
snakes, but it is surely nature taking
to say that it deliberately starts out
on hunt for the rattlesnake, says
Doctor Bryant.

SOUTH AMERICA

That there will be prohibition in

back from the Latin American coun-
tries by Miss Anna "A. Gordon, ma
tional president Of the Woman's Chris
