CROP OUTLOOK
IS PROMISING,
ROBERTS SAYS
More Sunshine, Higher Tenn
pCratures and Occasional
Shower Now Is Need

Never in the climatological his
tory of the state have conditions for
an abundant crop been more promis-
ing than ut present, o. w. Roberts,
federal weather forecaster, said in
talk over KFYR Wednesday.
"What is needed now,' Roberts
said, "is more sunshine, higher-but
not too igh-temperatures, and an
occasional shower. With the greatly
increased diversification, the better
farming methods used, and favorable
weather conditions, North Dakota
should come into it's own again"
Average Is 5.76 Inches
Discussing weather conditions dur
ing May, Roberts pointed out that
the average rainfall, as taken from
reports Of II of the 80 cooperative
stations in North Dakota, is 5.7G
inches. McClusky reported 9.O2
inches, while the greatest amount,
$50 inches, was reported by Penn
bina.
The average rainfall for Mclean,
Sheridan, Bu- leigh, Kidder. Logan
and Stutsman counties was more
than seven inches and counties in
the extreme northwest nart Of the
state also averaged more than seven
for the Red River valley was below
five inces, Wahpeton reporting $50
inches, the smallest amount.
Generally, when the Red River
valley receives just the proper
amount Of precipitation for its needs.
the remainder of the state receives
too small an amount and invcrsely,
when the Missouri Slope and the
western part of the state receive just
the proper amount for their needs.
the Valley is inundated" Roberts
said. Fortunately for US all, this
year the smallest amounts occurred
in the Red River valley and the
heaviest average was in the central
portion. although Pembina county
recorded the greatest single amount.
Prospects Are Good
"This unusual rainfall, following
as it did the ample precipitation of
the preceding eight months, placed
the soil throughout the state in the
best condition in which it has beer

Bismarck in charge Of this work.
The nearest approach to present com
ditions was in 1915 and again in
1916, although during both Of these
years the Red River valley received
too much precipitation.

About Two Americans, But
Even Sings About Them

Berlin, June 9.--1P-Fetcd and
feasted ever since they landed on
German soil after their flight from
New York. Clarence ID. ChambcrliD
and Charles A. Levine were on the
threshold today Of still further hon
ors. The enthusiasm of the country
over the flight knows no bounds and
organizations and Sndividuals are
competing to entertain the airmcn.
Among the many suggestions that
have been made is one that when
Chamberlin returns to the United
States he be taken aboard Ger
man warship, preferably the cruiser
Berlin.
"This honor" says the Achtuhr
Apendblatt. "would show the Amer
lean people more than anything else
how proud Germany is over the fact
that the two countries are not di-
vided any longer by the ocean,
Going to Potsdana
On Saturday the two aviators plan
to fly to Potsdam in the company
of leading German air league Of
ficials. Next day they expect to fly
to Vienna. They will return to Ber-
lin Thursday. proceeding by air to
Brcmerhavcn to meet their wives,
due from New York the next day.
Such enthusiasm as has been
aroused over the flight is rarely seen
in Berlin. From the time the flyers
rose yesterday to keep their ap-
pointment with President Won Hin
denburg until they returned to the
American embassy, their headquar-
tcrs, to dress for an official dinner,
they were constantly obliged to ac-
knowledge greetings.
Song Hastily Composed
The populace not only talks about
the two Americans, but sings about
them. A hastily composed ballad
sung to the tune of well known
German ditty is heard everywhere.
1t begins:
"Chamberlin, Chamberlin, lass dich
sehen in Berlin'-let US see you in
Berlin.
The newspapers are filled with col
umns of description Of the flight and
its significance, and praise for
Ghas~berlins and Levine. Only few
papers have fault to find. The COM
munist Rote Fahl Cred Flag) de-
scribes the Lindbcrgh and Chamber
lin flights as tests by american
imperialism" Of the possibility of
aviation with view of bombing at
tacks from the air."

SALARY RAISE
QUESTION. HELD
IN .ABEYANCE
Shafer Not to File Opinion
Until He Gets Copy of 1927
Session Laws

Answer to the query of State Audi
tor John Stcen who wants to know
il he can legally issue larger pay
check to Fred B. Ingstad. state auto
mobile register, will be held up by
Attorney General George Shafer un-
til he receives copy of the session
laws Of 1927.
Whether or not the state highway
commissio ION had right to raise Ing
stad's salary depends, in part, on
laws passed at the last session and
the attorney generals office is tired
of bothering the secretary Of state
for certified copies of new enact
ments.
Is No Rush
Anyhow, there is no rush about
the matter since Stccn does not need
an answer to his question until the
last of the month when tho pay
checks are written.
The fact that large number Of
new laws become effective July
has caused a rush of inquiries to the
attorney generals office, Shafer
said, and his staff is busy taking
care Of these requests for informa-
tion.
In the neantime the secretary Of
state has been giving every aid to
the printer charged with getting out
copies Of the session laws. Paper
bound copies will be available within
a few days and these will be fol-
lowed within month by the per-
manent cloth-bound volumes. Under
the lay the permanent copies must
be printed from the same plates as
those used for the first edition. The
second edition will be held up, how
ever, so as to give an opportunity to
correct any errors occurring in the
first issue.
Secretary Of State Robert Byrne
spent more than q. week in Fargo
reading the proof Of the book SO as
not to impede the work Of putting, it
in type and binding it.
Scores Of urgent requests for
copies have made the secretary anx-
ious to begin sending out the volumes
rather than letters Of explanation and
apology.
