Tbp tame hay crop acreage OF the

,rbeat acreage compared to a year
400 is partly accounted for by
the Iateness of the spring season.
Hay ard Grains Need Rain.
rnseasonal cold weather up to
lime / and lack of rainfall dur
ing the latter part of May has
brought about low condition of
ali spring crops. Condition of
tame hay on June l was reported
at IS per cent of normal as COM
nared to SO per cent last year.
Condition of pastures was report
ed at 70 per cent on June 1, where
as a year ago the condition was
q per cent. These low conditions
expressed the necessity for the
rains which have been occurring
the last week and which will be of
great benefit to all crops.
The condition of oats barley, and
rye on June l was 81 per cent,
IS per cent, and 81 per cent res
pectively compared to 81 per cent,
90 per cent, and 80 per cent for
the same crops on June / last
year. Winter wheat grown chief
ly in counties around Calumet
County is backward due to poor
growing weather during the spring
and was reported in a condition
on June l of rs per cent, compar-
ed to 50 per cent a year ago. The

els,-4 per cent below last years
production. Rye production is
particularly prominent in the CEN

IN the United States was forecast
ed on June / to be "a per cent
less than the production of last
year.
The barley production is fore
casted to be 8 per cent less than
the production of last year. Poor

Tide of immigration Threatens
American Ideals, Simmons
Tells Women'S Body

TULSA, Okla, April 1s.-New York
is the most un-American center on
the American continent, william D.
Simmons, emperor of the ku klux
Khan, declared here tonight to the
Kamelia, the womens organization
formed along the lines of the khan at
their first general convention.
Directing the attention of the con-
vention to what he said was the
menace to the white Protestant
civilization of the race from all Sides
Colonel Simmons said the foreign
population settled in the great CEN
tiers of population. He cited New
York
within radius of ninteen miles"
he said, there are more than seven
millions of people congested. Of
this enormous centralized population,
there are only 100000 native born,
white Protestant Americans. The
majority of some millions of this
vast centralized population are of
every land and every tongue and
every creed. They speak 81 different
foreign languages and none of them
in their homes or in their commu-
mites speak the English language.
The foremost political and social
economist of the world recently made
a survey of New York city and after
listening to it's babel of tongues,
after feeling It's hot breath of an
archy, after touching its seething
restlessness, he calmly turned away
and said that Petrograd, in its dust
and desolation, was a picture of New
York city of the future"
The founder of the khan told the
convention that IAN organization of
patriotic, white Protestant American
women was the "other part of
dual vision" which came to him in
his youth and Il am proud to see the
realizat ton of my dream In a great
national woman's organization" He
called on them to take their places
beside husbands and fathers until
the ideal of Americanism Is es-
tablished and until the establish
ment of the worlds greatest demo-
crazy are made secure for all times"
