HERE
IN J j NE NEAR
CITY'S RECORD,
Only Two Wetter Junes Re-
corded in the History of the
Bismarck Weather Bureau
FAVORABLE WEATHER
Best For Crops in Many Years
Still Below Normal Pre-
cipitation, However

The weather during June was the
most favorable of any June in the
Genealogical history of the Wea-
ther Bureau at Bismarck, according
to a statement of o. w. Roberts, OBJ
server in charge. The weather was
cool, which was decidedly favorable
for all small grains, and at the close
of the month spring wheat, oats,
barley, speltZ and winter rye we're
in excellent condition. While some
what too cool for the termination
and growth of corn, that crop was
in good condition also at the end of
June, being of good stand and color
and comparatively free from weeds.
Pastures and ranges never afforded
a greater amount Of feed than dur
ing the month just passed, and the
hay crop, both tame and wild grass
es, will be far above the normal.
i, The temperature during June av-
eraged 60 degrees, or nearly four
degrees below the normal. During
the fifty years since the establish
ment Of the Bismarck weather sta
tion, there have been but five cooler
Junes. The highest temperature
recorded during the month was "a
degrees on the 21st; the lowest was
az degrees on the lst. The highest
temperature ever recorded in June
at Bismarck was l07 degrees on June
80, 1921; the lowest was 81 degrees
on June 6, 1883.
The total precipitation during
June was 6.21 inches, or 2.67 inches
above the normal. During the past
fifty years there have been but two
wetter Junes than during the pres
ent year, $50 inches in 1914 and
8:4O inches in 1890. Even with the
excessive precipitation in June the
station records show Bismarck is
still more than one-half inch below
the normal for the present calendar
year.
The prevailing direction Of the
wind was from the north; the total
movement was 6,064 miles, or an
average of 8.4 miles per hour. The
highest wind velocity was during
the hail, wind and electrical storm
of the 18th, when maximum vel
ocity of 70 miles per hour was
reached. 1t is possible that high
er velocity was reached than this,
as at the time the thermometer OF the
Bureau was destroyed the above
velocity was being recorded. There
were three clear. days, ten partly
cloudy days and seventeen cloudy
days, making the sunshine IL per-
lent below normal.

BRYAN MOUNTS
PLATFORM FOR
VIM. G. M'AD00
COmmOner Seeks to Break
Deadlock in Democratic
National Convention
SMITH FORCES BOO HIM
COmmOner Names Several
Candidates He Says Are
Fitted For Presidency
SMITH FORCES BOO HIM

Madison Square Garden, New
York, July 2.-Seeking to pull tn.
Democratic national convention out
of its deadlock, William Jennings
Bryan, war horse Of many campaigns,
took the platform today and declared
himself for William G. McAdoo.
Heckled some from the galleries
and booed by some, the old-time
party leader repeated the incident
in 1912 he took the platform ana
declared for Woodrow Wilson. This
time, however, Bryan did not attack
any candidate by name. He said
he would content himself with nam
ing some he considered fitted for
the presidency. At the top of the
list stood McAdoo.
While the galleries, packed with
Smith supporters, ran off into a
riot and Chairman Walsh ordered
some sections of them cleared. the
floor went off into pandem onium,
the McAdoo people went off int.
fits of cheering and the Smith peo-
pie went to booing.
From the floor a New Jersey dele
gate shouted to Bryan: "You have
stated that Senator Walsh was the
greatest Of all investigators. Bear
in mind that he disclosed that Nc
Adoo has accepted retainers from
oil'.
At that point more pandemonium
broke loose and there was some dis
cussion about the propriety of Bryan
proceeding under the rule.
Give him time," yelled Smith
edmirer, from the gallery. "Give
him 20 years"
After naming over several logical
nominees Mr.. Bryan continued: "In
Florida We have DR.. Murphree."
"Wle want Smith," shouted a dele.
gate from New York
/ ''Those who have not Informed
themselves on the nations grea,
men ought II be silent until they
have had chance" Bryan retortec
as he named over the qualities OF
the Florida possibility.
He then named Josephus Daniels
end Senator Robinson of Arkansas.
''This is probably the last conven-
tion of my party at which l may
be delegate ="
At that there was applause.
Don't applaud" interrupted Bry
an, II may change my mind"

ONE VOTE MAY
NOMINATE
Two Highest on County Bal
lot Entitled to Place
in Fall

Candidates who received votes in
the primary by the sticker route,
or by having their names written
in, were nominated if they were in
the high for the office on the nom
partisan ballot, according to Attor-
ney- General George Shafer. The
ruling was given the auditor Of
Pierce county.
The law provides, the Attorney
General found, that on the nom
partisan ballot-state superintend-
ent, supreme court judge, district
judge and county offices-that the
two receiving the highest number
of votes shall go on the ballot in
the fall. 1t is only in case one asks
his name be not put on the ballot in
the fall that it is kept off, if he was
among the two highest, the Attor-
ney- General said.
The ruling applies to Burleigh
county, as we'll as many others,
since in the case of non-contested
offices named were written in the
ballot.

Toxic, July e. Editorial de-
nunciation of the cutting down of
the flag in the American embassy
compound yesterday by an uniden-
titled Japanese is voiced by the
Jill Shimpo, leading Toxic daily.
The paper says:
The flag incident seriously Injuries
the dignity Of Japan and the nation
feels unbounded regret for it. No
body but an idiot or mad man
would commit such an outrage.
knowing of the anti-American
demonstration, the police ought to
have exercised the strictest guard
against events such as this. Their
failure to do SO shows incompetency.
There is no doubt this act is to be
attributed to excitement famed

KILLS FAMILY.
SLAYSHIMSELF'
No Motive Found for Missouri
Farmers Actions

Avon, Missouri, July 2.-Authori-
ties are unable to determine the
motive which caused Howard S.
Price, 81, farmer living near here,
to slay his wife and four little girls,
and later take his own life in his
home Monday night.
The children, all under IL years
of age, and his wife, had evidently
been beaten on the head while
asleep. Prices death had come from
gun shot wound. The rural mail
carrier informed investigators of
finding note in his box signed by
Price which said: "Please, let every
one know we are dead" and gave a
few minor instructions. The note
ascribed no motive.

Madison Square Garden July 2-The first break in the
bg block of 80 votes which constitutes the stone
of Governor Alfred E. Smiths strength in the Democratic
national convention came today the 37th ballot.
Two members of the New York delegation cast their
votes for William G. McAdoo and started the supporters of

emily as if they had a state delegation.
On the six ballots before the 37th, the McAdoo and

over Mississippi early in the baotng and that with
gains elsewhere carried his total to 445 within 30 of his
