CAUSE OF CUT
IN WHEAT S0WN
Weekly Crop Review of Van
Duse., Harrington Company
CanvaSses Conditions

The weekly crop review OF the
Northwest, issued by the Van Dusen
Harrington Company, Minneapolis,
follows:
In North Dakota and the eastern
.part of Montana there have been
heavy rains or SHOWS during the
past week. These in addition To cold
weather have retarded seeding, es-
pecially in the Northern districts In
Northern South Dakota the heavy
rains have. been OF great benel.: as
the soil was extremely dry.
"Our reports from Southern M.nn-
csota and South Dakota indicate that
ne seeding of wheat and coarse grain
is approaching completion. Ear.y
sown wheat and some fields OF oats
and barley are showing green and
have a good stand and. color. Farm
ers are plowing for corn and plant
ing will begin in about ten days.
Nm North Dakota conditions are
. not so favorable. In the Southern
tier of counties the wheat is practi-
cally all in the ground and the great
er Part of the coarse grain has been
seeded. In the Central and North
! eastern districts farmers have mol
! been able to work the soil on account
! of excess moisture. The amount OF
seeding completed in these district:
varies from As percent to 70 percent
while in the Northwestern part OF
I the state it has just commenced.
"In the Eastern part of Montana
seeding is progressing slowly be-
cause OF the cold ana wet weather
The Central and Western parts OF
the state are very dry. Some seed
! has failed to germinate in this area
Reports from the Judith BasiI
indicate winter wheat to be in excel
! lent condition.
Winter rye is spotted and our re
ports from the principal rye countie:
of North Dakota indicate a thu
stand and no doubt some winter kill
ed fields will be plowed up and plant
ed to corn or flax.
"Generally speaking wet groun'
and low temperatures have interier
ed with spring work to such an ex
tent that considerable decreas
in wheat acreage may result. Thu
will stimulate an increase in the fla
acreage where good seed is avail
able"

OUT COMPANY
OF GUARDSMEN

Baton Rouge. La, May 2-Gover-
nor Parker has been asked to order
a company Of the Louisiana National
Guard to Amite on May 8, for duty
in connection with the hanging of
six Italians for the murder of Dallas
Gaines. The Governor declined to-
day to say whether he would do so,
but in official quarters il was be-
lieved such course would be fol-
lowed.
The appeal was made to the gov
ernor, it was understood, not be-
cause of fear of violence but be-
cause it was feared the town would
be crowded with residents from all
towns Of the parish and additional
police protection would be necessary
The identity of those communicat-
ing with the Governor was not dis.
