N. D. STOCKI''MEN
Warned 0FFLOOD

Mandan, N. D. March. 8-Oficials
at the United States weather bureau
have issued warnings to stockmen
running cattle on the river bottom
pastures or living in the low places
to be prepared for perhaps the great
est floods in several decades when the
warm spring weather comes.
The first thaw since midwinter
came Wednesday in the Missouri
slope area which is drained by the
Missouri, with the various tributary
streams, the Heart Knife, Square
Butte, Little Missouri, Little Hart,
Cannon Ball, Grande, Ceder and doz-
ems of lesser streams.
Conditions are unusual" said
Meteorologist Larson of the u. S.
weather bureau. "There is more snow
on the ground through North Dakota
and Montana now than in years in
fact l believe the snow deposit is al
most record. Montana, at the head
waters of the Yellowstone and Mis-
souri, rivers, has had far colder wealth
er than usual, and where there is
usually an early start at breaking up
in the spring, this section has had
the first warm weather. This all
tends to mean that when the spring
breakup of the Missouri comes it will
be general increasing the hazard of
flood danger.
eve are almost certain to have
some Of the highest water in history
this spring." he said, "and I would
advise all persons living on the low
lands especially along the Missouri to
prepare to get out before the water
comes, which probably will not be for
several weeks yet"
Big five foot diameter storm sewers
installed by the City of Mandan last
fall will be adequate to carry off the
surplus waters from the hills back of
the city, according to city commits
sioners. High water in the Heart
river, however, may cause trouble and
back up in drainage system. City
authorities are urging citizens to pro-
vide means of blocking off all sewer
traps, openings or drains in anticipa-
ton of flood trouble.

clared invalid by the supreme court

machinery which has been built up
to enforce it. The regulating force
had Its headquarters at the North Da-
kota Agricultural college. w. c..
Palmer has been acting inspector with
]. A. McGovern, chief deputy grain
inspector, and ]. l. Brady, chief deputy
accountant.
E. F. Ladd was grain inspector until
his election to the United States sen.
ate when he was succeeded by Prof.
Palmer,
The action, known as the Embden
grain case, was instituted against the
Farmers Grain company of Emden,
N. D., which refused to comply with
the act. The case was tried in United
States district court in Fargo in the
fall Of 1919 where the act was upheld.
An appeal was taken to the circuit
court of appeals of the eighth district
In June, 1920, and the court of appeals
reversed the decision, holding the law
in conflict with federal statutes and an
interference with interstate commerce.
This decision the United States
supreme court upheld.
