RIG GRAIN AND FORAGE
CROPS ARE LOOKED FOR
Indications Are that There Will
Be Fair Prices for Wheat
and Other Grains
(By United Press)

St. Paul, June Prospects for a
big grain and forage crop in the
northwest this year are good, accord
ing to reports from banking, market
ing and statistical sources.
A heavy crop this year should en-
able farmers of the northwest to re-
cuperate from heavy def1ation dur
ing 1920 and the last spring, accord
ing to agricultural experts.
Indications are that there will be
fair prices for wheat and other gram
crops this fall, according to e: q;
Quamme, president of the st. Paul
Federal Land bank. The bank has
about resumed normal operation and
Is doing more than 100000 bust
ness monthly, he said. This in itself
is an indication of optimism and the
return of normally, it was pointed
out.
There are only few spots in the
northwest where crops have been re.
tarded by lack of rain, and in most
sections the crops are two weeks
ahead of normal advancement fol-
this time of the year.
Resumption Of foreign buying on
a large scale is anticipated this fall
by farmers in general, and if this ex-
pected trading develops to any pro
portions, the financial status Of agri'
cultural interests will be good, it is
said. A good market for crops will
enable farmers to move them early
and thus realize on their labors. An
early return on money invested In
seeding. cultivating and harvesting
will enable farmers to clear then
debts and secure foothold on next
years business,

Within very short time after mar
tial law was applied the situation was
under control. Throughout the night
big motor trucks on which dangerous
looking guns we're mounted patrolled
the streets, which were cleared of
civilians at 8 p. m.
An attempt to raise money for the
relief of direlect negroes was under
way today. Several thousand dollars
already has been subscribed.
Dick Rowland, the negro whose al
legged assault of Sarah Paige led to
rumors of attempted lynching, was
struggled from the city soon after
the fighting started. Negroes made
a drive on the Jail to release Rowland
when reports of whites gathering to
lynch Rowland spread through the
black belt.
Sarah could not be found. Re-
ports, however, were that neighbors
said they saw her shortly after the at
tack and claimed there were bruises
on her arms and other parts Of her
body.
The fire which destroyed the black
belt played no favorites and also
swept the homes of whites in its path.
