st. Paul-Blackrust has appeared in
the spring wheat belt in the last week,

neither the yield or the quality will

that wheat is too far advanced.
Spring wheat at Morris is being cut;
no damage by rust; estimated aver
age yield of 10 bushels. Cutting Of
rye, oats and barley is in full swing.
Favorable growing weather and corn
is in excellent condition.
At Willmar the wheat is nearly all
cut. There has been some red rust
and slight black rust, but it came too
late to do any serious damage. Wheat
should average about Is or 16 bushels.
Corn in best condition for many years.
but needs rain.
Near Crookston the crop condition
promise good average; nothing has
taken place to destroy or injure the
grain. Rye is all cut, and early sown
oats are being harvested. There is a
little red rust, but not much damage.
Potatoes are growing nicely.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS for immedi-

been submitted to representatives OF
the railroad executives and labor
unions by President Harding, accord
ing to information obtained from ad
ministration advisors who talked with

Three proposals, all hinging on vari
GUS plans for adjusting the employees
seniority rights, will be submitted, it
was said, to the executives meeting in
New York and to an employees con-
ference in Chicago to be arranged by
B. M. Jewell, the shopmen's leader.
Outside railroad contracting, it was
said, would be abandoned by the rail-
roads under each of the three propos-
ais.
One Of the proposals, according to
those claiming to have information of
the Presidents suggestion, would be
for the railroads to waive the seniority
q'estion and take all strikers back to
work
Another was said to be to give
"loyal' men who :ave remained at
work prior seniority rights over strik-
ers, and the third was for separate ad-

WHITE HOLLAND is POPULAR
While Not So Common as Bronze II Is
Widely ~Raised-Has Many
Excellent Qualities.

The white Holland turkey, while not
so Common as the bronze variety. is
nevertheless widely raised and ex-
ceedingly popular. People who keep
them long enough to get familiar with
their qualities and characteristics
generally prefer them to any other
breed.
The origin OF the white Holland Is
not known, according to writer's on
poultry, but 1t Is believed to have been
developed by breeding white birds Sc
lected from other breeds, which appear
occasionally as among chickens and
are classed as sports" 1t seems quite
certain that they did not come from
Holland or the Netherlands. 1t has
come to the front as a distinct breed
since about 1890. The standard
weights are, &c lbs. for a cock 16 lbs.
for a cockerel 10 for n hen and 10 for
a pullet. At the same time any OF
these classes may be fattened TO
from three TO six pounds above the
weight quoted. Six months old COB
blers, or cockerels. have been known
