Do Not Need Attorney
to Collect Claims Of
Disabled Officers

Brigadier General Frank T. Hines,
director of the u. s.. Veterans bureau,
announces that it had been called to
his attention that certain attorneys
are soliciting disabled emergency Of
ficers who have claims pending before
the bureau, to engage such attorneys
to represent them in connection with
their claims. The director declared
most emphatically that in so far as
bureau action on their case is con-
cerned, It is not necessary that an at
torney be employed.
"All that is necessary for the dis
abled emergency officer to do, II he
believes that he is entitled to the
benefits Of the disabled emergency
officers act" the director stated, "is
to file proper claim" Information
with reference to such claim may be
obtained, without charge, from the
central office Of the U. 8. Veterans
bureau, or any Of its regional officers
located in the various states, as well
as from the Disabled Emergency Of
ficers' association. the American Le-
gion, the Disabled American Veterans
Of the World War, the Veterans Of
Foreign Wars and other patriotic or
CARNATIONS.

AT THE MOVIES
CAPITOL THEATRE

Admirers of winsome Janet Gaynor,
the twenty year -'old Fox star who
made an instantaneous hit as Diane
in 18th Heaven" will have another
opportunity to see her in captivat-
ing role when Sunrise" the first
picture made In this country by the
noted European director. F. w. Muir
mau, opens at the Capitol Theatre for
q three day run on Monday.
Sunrise Is the most important
picture yet released by Fox Films and
was produced with an especially Sc
lected cast headed by Miss Gaynor
and George OBrien. Great as was
her triumph in 18th Heaven" her per-
Torrance in Sunrise" has been pro-
nounced superior to anything she has
previously done because it calls for a
much wider range of histronic ability
and puts her to test from which
less competent stars would have
withdrawn.

CENTRIFUGES USED
TOFlND FLAX wilt
SPORES BY BOLLEY
Test by Physicians Device to
Determine Plant Disease
Goes Back to 1901

Centrifuges similar to those dis
tributed to six counties in North Da-
kota to aid in the drive against smut
this spring played an important part
In Prof. H. L. Bolley's study of flax
wilt, according to Dr.. E. @. Booth of
the Agricultural college extension di-
vision.
Disease organisms which cause flax
wilt were finally run to earth by Pro-
lessor Bolley, who thus recounted the
discovery as early as 1902:
"Centrifuged wash water from the
seed from diseased crops showed the
mature spores: hence they must de-
velop somewhere in quantity. One
day scraped under water some ma
ture flax stems which did not appear
to bear external marks Of disease, ap-
piled the centrifuge sedimentation
process and thus found the regular
spores in quantity. A few trips to the
field and q few minutes at section
cutting gave the desired views of the
parasite. when many previous efforts
on different dates and years had failed
to locate the cause of the disease in
or on the more mature plants"
Once discovered, the method was
used extensively to determine wheth-
or disease spores were present. In
1901, 100 samples of wheat and oats
were examined for smut and in 1902,
l31 samples of flax were checked for
wilt disease by Professor Bolley.
Commenting on the use of the GEN.
trifuge at that early date Mr.. Bolley
wrote:
Il do not know whether this is the
first statement Of a novel use of the
physicians centrifugc or not. Though
previously accustomed to its use in
archaeological examinations of milk,
water, blood, urine, sputum, ETC., this
new found work for the centrifuge
gives it nearer place in my interest"
County extension agents in Rich
land, Cass, Burleigh, Benson, Towner
and Ramsey counties will have r. :
trifuge machines to determine for
farmers whether their seed should ne
treated for smut this spring.

Next 1t was brought to these shores

SHEEP PROSPECTS
GOOD in WOOL Way
Decrease In Fabric SO per Cent
Of Annual. Production
Before War

It docs not seem likely that the
production of wool will soon be over
done. especially when 1t is considered
that there are no longer any great
areas Of unoccupied lands where
sheep can be produced in large num-
bers, is the opinion of D. j. Griswold,
animal husbandryman at the North
Dakota Agricultural college. The
world wool production decreased from
1921 ATT 900 pounds in 1913 to 1885,
So, 900 pounds in 1924. This decrease
Is about SO per cent of the annual
production before the war, according
to Mr.. GriSwold.
All the facts about sheep are given
in detail in the revised edition of
Circular So. Sheep and Their Care,
by d. J. Girswold and Don McMallan.

EFFECT OF THE JONES BILL

Coming on the heels of many unavoidable expedients for suppressing the liquor traffic the Jones bill carrying penalty of five years in the pententiary and max imun fine of S100000 will be found to fall far short of that which intended for it. It is safe predict that there will be fewer convictions under the law than heretofore The sale of liquor is merely the concern of those ho vend it. it is the concern of those who con sume it. As great majority of otherwise impeccabe citizens will take drink when occasion otfers and are agreed upon the principle that drinking is matter of personal selection rather than the of him who does not mbbe it will be hard to find juries who will tack five years upon the who provides drink It may toke long time for the extremists to discover that you cannot egislae morals into humanity but the his tory of the prohibition should be sufficient to con- vince them that it is failure
