Farmers to Be Given
Chance to Judge Dairy
Cattle at State Fair

Fargo, N. D., July 5.-Farmers and
dairymen Of North Dakota who at
tend the state fair here, July IL to %,
are going to have an opportunity to
show "the world" how well they can
judge the productivity of a milk COW,
according to j. R. Rice, dairy specia-
list at the agricultural college.
There is to be a special dairy ex-
hibit featuring the testing of cows to
show that the only certain way to
keep tab on the cows and eliminate
the "boarders" is to weigh and test
the milk.
Ten cows, whose production for the
past year and profit margin over
feeding cost is definitely known, will
be brought to Fargo fro mhte James,
town testing association. The produe-
tion of each will be posted and it will
be the business of the contestants
the general public-to guess which
record each COW made. The animals
chosen will be of varying capacity.
The cows will occupy row of stalls.
On the last day of the fair the rec
ord Of each will be posted over her
stall. The winning contestants or
Judges. those who make the best
guesses for all ten of the cows, will
receive prizes.
The milk given by the cows while
at the fair will also be tested and
weighed.

FARM LABOR CON-
DIT|oNS IN n. D,

Reports from all points in North
Dakota indicate crop conditions are
as favorable as at any time in the
past history of the state. Also, the
reports further indicate that all Sec
tions of the state are we'll supplied
with moisture, giving the best in
surance against any probable drought
conditions this season.
It appears likely that many fields
of winter rye will be ready for har-
vesting by July 18th; oats, barley and
wheat will then follow. Should the
present prospects continue, North Da-
kota will harvest one of the largest
crops in it's history.
There will be an active demand for
labor commencing about July 1. The
U. S. Employment Service, operat-
ing under the U. S. Department of
Labor, will cooperate with the State
Employment Service in establishing
temporary labor agencies to supply
transient and other labor as the de-
mand for such labor is made. Mr..
George E. Tucker, field representative
in the Farm Labor Bureau of the
Federal Services, whose office is at
Kansas City, Made a personal trip
to the state recently to size up the
sitution and make arrangements to
aid the state office in the labor agency
work. The present plans are to es-
tablish temporary offices on or about
July 18th at Oakes, Grand Forks
Devils Lake, Minot, and Bismarck. The
Federal-State Employment Agency
operating at Fargo will receive ad.
ditional help during the rush season.
The scale of wages for the wheat
harvest can hardly be approximatet
at this time. The Fargo office re.
ports under date of June 24th thai
month wages are still being Offered
at $4,000 per month and season wages
at $4,000 and $45.00 per month, ant
that there is an increased demand
for farm laborers with present short
age of men to fill orders; that there is
a continued demand for domestic:
with wages offered from $500 to $1(

Growing Peaches in
N. b. Not Impossibility

.Mandan, N, D., July 5.-Growing
peaches in North Dakota is mot an
impossibility. The experiment sta
tion of the United States government
here is demonstrating that it is pos
sible to have peaches thrive up on the
highlands of western North Dakota.
To be sure, they are Chimes peaches,
and the ripened fruit is not rival of
the Michigan and Maryland products,
but nevertheless it is a peach, and
if the painstaking care of the horticul-
turalists avail the present plants at
the Great Plains station may be the
forefathers of some celebrated brand
Of freeze-defying fruit.

of the plant, stories of farmers who
have successfully fought the weed,
story of the advance of the thistle in
this state, summary of the present
situation in regard to the weed, stor-
les of county campaigns against the
plant and is full of suggestions for
Kidding fields of the pest.
"The experiences of the farmers

introduction of the bulletin reads,

 o. Is the golden spur narcissus q double flower or should 1t be single? A friend has the largest and finest double daffodil and she calls them golden spur. Are they golden spur, or what could they be? Mrs, M. E.
 A. The golden spur narcissus is an early single trumpet-shaped flower, and one of the best florist forcing varieties. There is no double golden spur and it is evident that what your friend has is something else. probapiy Von Sion. one of the best doubles.
 Q. There is a strawberry plant called Blrdsong's giant that is being highly advertised as something ex- traordinary. Are you familiar with this sort, and does 1t really possess the merit claimed2 j.. H., Wylam.
 A. Birdsongs giant is really a meritorious plant, but it Is doubtful if it is any better than Klondike, which it greatly resembles. The fo- liage of the plant. shape and size of berry is very similar. BirdsonR's g giant strawberry plants are avail able and cost st per 100.

 A. There are more than 20 vari- cities of climbing roses being grown in Birmingham, and nearly all of them are good. There has been a lot of complaint this year about mil dew, and it has been worse this year than usual, but in growing climbing roses you must be careful and spray them with the necessary remedies to control mildew and other diseases.

 Q. Would you plant Swiss chard this late? Mine planted two or three months ago has all died out for lack of moisture. I am anxious to have this greens In the early fall and winter. J. R.
 A. It Is rather late to plant Swiss chard, but where soil is fertile and other conditions are correct, you should succeed. See letter about spinach.
 Q. You have evidently planted al falfa and know how much should be planted to the acre. Please give me your opinion. o. H. J.

POOR POLITICS $ CREDITED ID FEW
 LEADERSOF PARTY
Democrats Believe BIunders Made in Criticising Wash ington Conference and Re-
 publican Record on Bonus
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau, The Age-Herald,
 50O Davidson Building.


 Washington, October 12.-(Special.) Certain democratic leaders. in the opinion of certain other democratic leaders, have not played as good or as honest politics as might have been played.
 In two respects, at any rate, there is friction in the camp. It Is not in- tense friction, but friction neverthe- less. The democratic national com mittee, in it's campaign book, in- weighs against the Harding admin istration because 1t instituted the Washington conference; gleefuEy points out the fact that it's objects have not been obtained, and leaves the impression that 1t rejoices be- cause of that fact.
 Senator Harrison of Mississippi acting chairman of the senatorial campaign committee during the ab- sence of Senator Walsh of Massa- chusetts, promises the people that if a democratic Congress Is elected Justice will be done the ex-service man.
 Democrats Fall Out
 There is very grave doubt that In either case the democrats have played intelligent politics. It is certain that democratic leaders are in disagree ment, and this gives the opposition an opportunity to point moral.
 Tho Washington conference was called against the wishes of admin istration leaders by the concerted ac- ton of progressives and democrats The democratic leader of the Senate was one of the representatives of the United States Its purposes met with the avowed approval of all demo- crats in Congress.
 The treaties growing out of the conference have not been ratified by Italy or France. and thus are not in effect Because of the danger ot war in the Near East. battleships have not been scrapped. And thus the sole net result of the confernct was the allaying of the perpetual chatter of jingoes and marplots that there must be war between tho United States and Japan.
 Against the Conference
 There Is no question. however. that the conference was called in the hope that some little step might be taken to avoid armed conflicts in the fu- ture. It Is pointed out that sucr undertakings arc meritorious ever

Sheffield on the Tennessee to Mobile on the Gulf.
 With the experience gained in the Initial trials, members of the com mittee state that every detail has been worked out to make the com Ing trials perfect in every particular. The grounds selected are on the Mol lette and Saffo1d plantations, near the Alabama river, where raccoons arc plentiful and running conditions Ideal. Provision will be made by the committee for R camp house with suitable quarters for men and dogs.
 The rules and regulations govern ing entries of dogs may be obtained from H. F. Reese, Jr.. of Selma. The actual running of the trials will be under the direction of marshal and three competent judges, whose names will be announced later.
 It is contended by members Of the association that real coon dog is the greatest of all sporting dogs, and the object of the association Is to popularize the sport and assist In the development and breeding of dogs for that purpose.
