damaged. but it is too soon to
determine.
We have previously reported the
oats crop as distinct disappoint-
ment. 1t was so affected bv red
rust, heat or blight that the crop
is very light in weight, and the
yield low. Some farmers in the
northern districts are discovering
that oats, which looked promising
ten days or two weeks ago, are
now roorer than expected.
Rye threshing has been delayed
by rain, and the movement Of this
crop is slow. Some fine yields
have been reported in a number Of
districts. Where they have at
tempted to harvest with the COM
bine machines it is in poor condi-
ton, and will be heavily discounted.
The recent rain and warm wealth
er should improve the corn, but it
has shown slow development dur
ing the past 10 days. There are
only local spots throughout the
northwest that have good corn, and
it is certain that only nominal
percentage of the crop will mature
even under most favorable condi-
tons.

Horses Set New
Pulling Records

Results Of the 1927 horse pulling
contests in North Dakota indicate
that horses and horsemanship have
in the state during the
past year, according to R. c. Miller
of the North Dakota Agricultural
college.
"New high records were estab-
lished for both the light weight and
heavy weight draft horse classes"
Mr.. Miller says. 1.-THE first state
record was broken at the Rugby
fair when an eight-year-old team
weighing 2970 pounds owned by
Clarence Van Sweringen of Rugby
made new record of 1915 pounds
after having equalled the former
state record of 2250 pounds held
by team in Cavalier county since
last year. This team made the
record under unusually adverse,
weather conditions. A heavy shower
interrupted the contest when this
team had made a pull of $500
pounds. Horses and driver were
completely soaked with the rain,
but as soon as the rain ceased the
contest was continued on sod field
"The following week at the Cav
alier county fair at Langdon a
team owned by Howard. Crockett
of Langdon, weighing 2930 pounds
or 40 pounds leE4than the new
champion team, almost succeeded
in tying the new state record. They
pulled 2575 pounds for a distance
Of Is feet 5 inches, which is IL
feet and / inch short Of the re-
quired distance.
"In the heavy weight class teams
weighing 5000 pounds and over, a
3255-pound team owned by ]. w.
Hamilton of Iona not only tied the
former state record Of 2725 pounds
held by a team owned by Will Nc
COnaghy of Bathgate and made at
the Hamilton fair in 1926, but this
team also raised this record twice.
First they raised it to 2750 pounds
and then on the next pull raised it
| to 2775 pounds. This new high
record was not sufficient to prevent
the McCpnaghy team from again
becoming state chamrions. y Al

than last year, this team establish.

ARMY WORMS
ARE CAUSING
CROP DAMAGE
Arrangements Will BE Made
For Control Measures. Fol-
lowing Survey

Army worms are causing crop
damage in scattered areas in south
eastern North Dakota and speci-
mems have been received from as
far west as Mandan. according TO
!. A. Munro, entomologist of the
Experiment station at the North |
Dakota Agricultural college.
County extension agents nave
been instructed To make a survey
in the infested area and arrange
for control measures Immediately.
with N. ID. German, county agent
leader at the college, directing
their activities.
Found In Many Places
Authorities at the college declare
that within their knowledge army
worms were never reported in large
numbers in North Dakota until this
year. The first specimens were
found by County Agent II. NJ. Oct
stos in Richland county week ago.
Press dispatches carried in the
newspapers at that time have re-
suited in specimens being sent to
the college from more than thirty
different localities in Richland,
Sargent, Ransom, Barnes and Nor
ton counties in this state, and Clay
county, Mimi.
Due to the vOracious feeding
habits of this worm, immediate
Identification and application OF
control measures must be made.
The worms move along on wide
front and eat everything green that
is in their path.
1.-TWO methods can be used to
control these worms" Mr.. Munro
declares. 1.-THE most common and
successful one is to dig V-shaped
ditch around infested fields with a
pillow. Then drag small log thru
this ditch until dust mulch is pro-
duced. When the worms come to
this ditch, they crawl in and they
are not able to get through the
dust.
"A second method is to poison
them with some spray such as paris
green or lead arsenate. This Is
practical only on small fields, due
to the expense. Care must be ex-
ercised where bees are kent nearby,
as this spray will kill the bees if
they feed there.
Methods of Control
"A combination of the two
METHODS can be used by digging
the furrow and spreading poison
bait in the bottom, using bran,
syrup and paris green or some other
poison. This method can be used
in those localities where it is diff.
cult to work up the dust mulch
1.-THE reports received to date dc
not warrant any scare so far as
the crop of this whole section i.
concerned" Mr.. Munro says. "1m
mediate control measures will stol
the depredations of the worm. Th'
most necessary action is to find on
the exact territory that is infested
and to apply the measures RICH
away. The report from Manda,
would indicate that there is a likeli
hood of some infestation in tn
counties east and south, Burleigh
Kidder, Stutsman, Emmons, Nc
Intosh, Logan, LaMoure an
Dickey. Any specimens sent t
my office at the college will b
identified Immediately, and advic
will be given on methods Of con
troll"
The army worm is about one an
one-half inches long, has tire
stripes on each side, a yellow hea
and belly, and the back may b
dark green or almost black.

CROP REPORT

The conditions for harvesting and
threshing of the northwestern grain
crops have been favorable until the
past three days, when there were
heavy rains, according to the week
ly crop report issued by the Van
Dusen Harrington company Of
Minneapolis. This moisture has
stopped farm work and it will not
be resumed until after drying
weather.
Most of the early threshed wheat
is in good condition, except where
the combination harvester and
thresher has been used. A large
part of the grain handled by these
combines is unfit for market. It
has been cut beige fully matured
and, because ofyfeeh kernels and
high moisture, it cannot be handled
with safety thru the .eievatoE2 1t
is selling at very heavy diseounts
and some farmers will undoubtedly
take heavy losses in harvesting
their crops in this way.
In the southern half of North
Dakota most Of the wheat and
durum fields are badly affected
with black rust. Many farmers are
cutting these crops slightly green.
They believe this is better than
waiting, as there is fear Of the
straw breaking and the heads
dropping, which would mean a con-
siderable loss. Immature wheat or
durum cut in this way, after drying
in the shock, will show shrinkage
Of several pounds to the bushel.
Returns Of wheat threshing vary
considerably. In Minnesota, where
the rust was most severe, the yield
has been considerably affected In
South Dakota and southern North
Dakota early wheat has good
weight and color, while the later
wheat will be shrunken. In eastern
Montana there ! has been some
threshing of early wheat and the
quality and yield is very satisfac.

} is late wheat that probably will not
. be ready for harvesting until The
latter part of the month. As most
fields have black rust, there will b.

Madame Nungesser
H0nOred BY Flyers

Paris, Aug. 19.-(AP)-For the
son she lost fate has sent some
compensation to Madame Nunges-
ser, who with Coli and the White
Bird disappeared into the unknown,
martyrs of scientific aviation.
Aviators have made sort of .un-
official mother of Madame Nun
gesser. Her Paris apartment has
become a haven of inspiration for
flyers of the world. Parisians re-
gard her simple home as sort of
shrine, q place as sacred to avia-
ton in its way as the tomb of the
unknown soldier under the Are de
Triomphe is to soldiers of the
Great War.
Rebuilds Her Health
Madame Nungesser was badly
affected ~ the news of her sons
disappearance coming on top of the
false news of his successful arrival
In the United States. But the com.
fort of this adoption by the sympa.
thetic world has done much to re.
build her health.
The h0n0rs which Lindbergh
Chamberlin and Byrd and his com.
pani0ns shared with her by calling
upon her in the first flush of Their
triumph were only beginning Of
the tribute. Hardly a week goe.
by without some aviation society
or delegation asking to call to ex
press sympathy and admiration Of
her courage. Private citizens leave
flowers and messages at her door
One Of the recent delegations
was committee from the Ameri
can Legion which conveyed tn
sympathy and respect of the ex
soldiers organization. A IA yea
old girl flyer came with the lovinl
sympathy Of group Of American
women aviators.
France Does Much
France has done everything il
IT. power to make up to Charlie
Nuneesser's mother, for the los
ss0f Aer son.
Despite the cumulative evidenc
that Nungesser and Coli have per
is6ed Madame Nungesser contin
