VETERANS BUREAU TRAINEE
MAKES GOOOD

A trainee of the Veterans Bureau,
a disabled man, has recently finished
a two years agricultural course. At
the present time he is herd manager
for large and progressive Dairy
Company. He receives one hundred
dollars a month, is supplied with a
completely furnished home, a garden,
transportation facilities, and has the
privilege of building up a herd Of his
own on the company property at no
expense to himself. The only provisi-
onis that the milk from the herd go
to the company. Any increase in the
herd belongs to him. s -
This permits him to build up a herd
which, in the near future enable him
to start in business for himself, if he
should desire to give up his present
position. $%. $%.
A Veterans Bureau trainee who ap-
plies himself to his work is thus
shown to be making good. 3

other buildings are also being rushed

aIers.

NAnSceLs and spiny shrub which often
~ Al up to ten or twelve
ltes a has three striking
characs The first one Is the
leaf, which = course, varies as. to size
but is quite distinct from the leaves
Of most other shrubs because Of its
sawtoothed edges. This is one Of the
principal means of identification and
should be remembered by all Of the
readers. Another characteristic which
/ is used as a means of indentifcation
is the spines which nearly always oc-
cur in groups Of three, five or seven
and diverge from one point on the
stem. These spines are sharp ard are
very noticeable thru their grouping
The last point which I shall mention
as a means of indentifcation concerns
the flowers and berries. The flowers
are small, inconspicuous, and of yellow
color. The. berries are more notice.
able and hang in clusters III much the
same manner as do currants, and are
of an oblong shape. Many people at
one time used the berries to make
wine and jam for which purpose they
were very well suited" .ss. TIL ...s.. :, :
u '.''The next point to be considered is
the life history of the Black Stem
Rust. It starts on the Common. Bar
berry in the spring from the winter
spores. These winter spores live
over on the stubble and wild grasses
from which they pass on to the Bar
berry Bushes. The rust usually at
.tacks the leaves. Yellow spores are
formed ON the underside of :she leaves.
This is called Spring or Cluster cup
stage. From here the spores are scat
tered by the wind to grains and
grasses but cannot spread from one
barberry bush to another. The red
stage then develops on the grains and
grasses and can spread from one
field to the another as long as condi-
tions are favorable. About the time
that the grain heads begin to fill the
black spores are formed. These are
sometimes called the Winter spores
as the black stem rust winters in this
stage. The red stage can very seldom
survive our northern winters which
makes our task the fixed job of exter-
minating every Barberry Bush in the
country as the black spores which
winter on the stubble and grasses and
germinate there in the spring, must
pass to the Common Barberry before
they can start reproducing in the
spring. This completes the life his
tory of the black stem rust as the
process then merely repeats ITSELF

Due TO Influences over which we
have no control the fair this year was
not a howlin9 success financially, yet,
the rain which interferred with the
attendance and programs was SO bene-
fetal that we can all forgive old Jupi-
ter Pluvius for the fair time .deluge
and trust that next year the ground
will be so well soaked that it can lay
off raining at fair time. . u. ....> :,
Prospects are very bright for big
things along the line of big fair at
Bottineau for several years to come,
barring any further periods of depres-
sion and so with the right spirit of
our citizens in the way of boosting
behind it, certain Improvements
necessary, can be made to accommodate
the patrons and the exhibits. The
question of how to make the necessary
improvements without in any way i'm
pairing the credit standing Of the
fair is the big question. This year all
obligations will be taken care Of ex-
cept the regular standing indebted
ness which should be reduced and
which could have been materially re-
duced this year except for the rain
at fair time. p.
The Fair Association owns the fair
grounds. In other words Bottineau
County owns the fair grounds. Would
it not be possible to stage more than
the one event 4 year for the purpose
of raising the necessary finances to a
quicker up-building of the fair
grounds !? IL every body knew posi-
lively that when they showed an ami
NAL or other article at the fair that
their premiums would be forthcom-
ing at the close of the fair, how much
more interest would be taken?
Several Bottineau County livestock
breeders express purpose to hold a
livestock sale at Bottineau this fall.
The logical place to hold such sale
is on the fair grounds. Other breeders
should make their wants known early
so that plans may be made in time to
advertise the project.
It is not too early for exhibitors to
begin planning on the Corn and Pot
ato show tosbe held this fall. We
suggest that this show be held early
in October SO that people may attend
via the auto way instead of waiting
until after snow comes.
. The ability of some Of our promi-
nent Bottineau fair boosters was ex-
in the fact that several of
them were called to outside county and
state fairs to- place the awards in
various departments. This fact not
only speaks we'll for the Judgment of
the people in. mind but also is a re-
Election of the good standing Of the
Bottineau County Fair among fair
men of the Northwest. The fair is
a big factor in advertising Bottineau
County but DO we fully realize it?
Livestock breeders should make the
fullest use of the fair grounds in the
way of holding their auction sales.
We think with a good crop or two
added impetus will be given this fea-
ture.
In the event that a livestock sale is
held this fall why not as one party
suggests make the sale quite general.
Perhaps, many sheep, swine and even
blooded Turkey toms and other poul-
try could be dispersed as well as the
fine shorthorns and Herefords. Think
it over and let us have some sugges-
