FIGHTING THE
BARBERRY BUSH

Fargo, Sept. 12-The farm to farm
barberry eradication survey in North
Dakota was completed in six more
counties in August, according to a
monthly report just sent to Washing
ton by George G. Mayoue, state leader
of the federal forces. A total of 5O7
bushes were found and removed last
month. The counties completed are
Bottineau, Rolette, Towner, McHenry,
Wells and Hettinger. Work also was
done in Benson, Emmons, Sioux,
Grant and Morton. In Emmons, Sioux,
Grant and Morton the work now is
being concluded. Sheridan, Kidder
and Burleigh are next on the list.
Counting the work done last month
1886 bushels have been found and
removed in North Dakota since the
start of the campaign. Of the August
total, 121 bushes were destroyed in
Bottineau county and III in Emmons.
Fewer than 100 were found in the
other counties visited.
Recent resurveys have indicated, &C.
cording to Mr.. Mayoue and Dean H.
L. Bolley of the College of Agricul-
ture, that the problem of sprouts will
delay the complete eradication of the
barberry in North Dakota beyond the
date of the finding of the last bush.
Sprouts were discovered this summer
on most of the properties where orig
inal bushes were dug up in the first
years of the campaign 191S-1S. This
indicates that a resurvey of all prop
erty where barberries were found will
be necessary.
In the northern part Of Barnes
county 80 sprouts were discovered last
month in the vicinity of spots where
bushes had been removed. There is
reason to believe that the same con-
dition prevails elsewhere where eradi-
cation has been considered complete.
These sprouts, if allowed to grow,
soon would develop into as much Of a
black rust menace as the original
bushes, experts declare.

PIONEER TOURIST
VISITS VALLEY CITY

the city tourist camp last Saturday
and left yesterday for Jamestown. He
will go from Jamestown to Plaza, ".
Oak, where he will look after his
farming interests in that district be-
fore joining his family at Seattle,
Wash. Mr.. Wade is genial sort of

touring by his healthy color and at,1-
letic build. In talking to MI Wade

sixteen years old. do believe camp

confirmed pessimist if he kept up the

and every business man should steal
away for a few weeks every season
and for the time being forget his wor-
ries and troubles. He should also take
his wife Cor some other fellow's)

routine which she has to go thru ev-
