This wrap, like its companion wrap, had
sleeves.
The second wrap was of soft rich
brown velvet. There was q bow on the
shoulder which terminated in a long
scarf-like end. The loops fell over the
front Of the right shoulder, while the
long trailing end reached almost to the
hem Of the wrap in back. Both these
wraps were of knee length. And both
were good looking. And their wearers
knew 1t, too.

AERIAL LAWS
BEING MADE
Rapid Progress of Flying
Brings Legislative
Regulations

NEW YORK, Aug. l9.-tR-With
aviation activities of all kinds in
creasing e the country, IL states
considered aeronautic laws IN the
l928-29 sessions Of the legislatures.
Thirty-six enacted such laws, &C
cording to a survey announced by
the eeronautical chamber Of COM
merce.
Altogether, $50 bills were consid-
cred and log enacted. Seventy-one
were aimed at the regulation or IL
censing of pilots and aircraft 81
were general acts and IS were spe-
cial acts authorizing the mainten-
ance and establishment Of airports
The report Of the survey was
made by Prof. Harry j. Freeman Of
New York university law school,
head Of the legal and legislative
research service Of the aeronautical
chamber.
THE survey shows that theer has
been unprecedented legislative &C
tavity in this field" Professor Free
man said. That the legislatures
have been prompt to respond to the
general interest in controlling aero
nautical activity is clearly apparent.
Whether these legislative activities
have produced the results contem-
plated Is a question for future expe-
rience to show.
THAT the separate and individ-
ual activities of IL Jurisdictions oy
Al separate legislative groups did
not produce a more chaotic condi-
ton is something worthy Of remark.
In view Of the number OF jurisdic-
tions, the general effect of the sta
tutes operating within the respec-
tive states has resulted In q uni
formity that must be deemed COM
mendable.
While the major part OF the leg
islation has been with reference &c
the regulation Of aircraft end the
establishment of airports, there has
been a manifestation Of some legis-
lative activity in other fields, more
particularly in connection with an
attempt to cope with the new stu
ations which have appeared with
the phenomenal growth of aviation.
Already different theories as &c
the proper method OF meeting these
problems by the enactment of sta
tutes have appeared and probably
are the forerunners Of widely diver
gent legislative policies.
The proper solution Of these
problems. which involves the weigh
ing Of the interests of the general
public on, one hand and the en-
enlargement of the development o.
commercial aviation on the other,
required careful investigation"
Professor Freeman pointed out
the need Of authoritative studies tc
guide legislation and said the fu-
ture of aviation legislation must be
regarded with apprehension unless
an effort Is made to divert the in
dividual efforts Of the several legis-
latures.

WHEAT SAID
RUST PROOF
Canadians Develop Grain;
American Farmers
Taking Heart

WASHINGTON. Aug. 10 Up -
DR.. j. H. Grisdale. deputy minister
Of the Canadian department Of ag-
riulture. Is quoted in Ottawa as an
nouncing the development Of
wheats which can resist rust.
Seed will not be available In large
quantities, but it is expected that
eventually the new wheat will save
Canadian farmers millions Of dol
lars every year.
The announcement Is OF deep in
terest to wheat specialists IN the
United States, where black stem rust
causes probably greater loss to the
spring wheat crop than all other
diseases combined.
The federal plant-disease survey
estimates that stem rust has caused
losses of spring and winter wheat
during recent years ranging from
$4,000 bushels In 1913 10 about 180.-
c00.0o0 in 1916. with an average
annual loss cf nearly 100000
bushels in the Is north-central
states.
Efforts TO halt the tremendous
destruction include eradication Of.
the common barberry. host plant Of
black stem rust. the growing OF
r~ust-resistant varieties and the use
Of improved methods Of field cul-
tUre.
Production Of varieties resistant
TO rust is a comnlex problem. since
the disease consists of many biolog-
ical forms which differ in their
pathogenicity for certain varieties Of
wheat.
That explains why the same va
riety may be resistant when grown
in one locality and susceptible
when grown in another. or why a
variety ma be resistant IN one
year and susceptible IN the next.
IT Is obvious. plant pathologists
say. thst II wheat Is to be resistant
in the field N must be resistant to
all hioloeic forms present IN the
locaiitv in which IL Is 10 be grown.
Whether fine Canadians have ac-
complished this feat remains TO be
determined. Until that time there Is
a question whether the wheat. al
though resistant in Csnada's soring
wheat r-nvirraS. would be resistant
~ the rrritad States.
The United States department ~
arrirultrra has had varied ucces

strains and IN crosses but has been

SHEEPMEN WILL
TALK WOOL POOL
MEETING CALLED FOR MAY
II TO DISCUSS OR
GANIZATION

Sheepmen of northeastern Mont
ana are urged to meet at Woli
Point, May 18th, to discuss wool
pool organization and other mat
ters of interest to their industry
AS many sheepmen have indicated
an interest in this move, ii is
believed the meeting at Wolf
Point May 11th will be well at
tended.
Wool pools have been organized
in many sections of Montana
where sheep are more numerous,
and have been a big help in mar
keting advantageously; however,
the scattered sheepmen of Roose-
welt, northern McCone, and
Daniels counties have never had
the service of such an organized
marketing agency. NJ ar k tin e
wool satisfactorily is becoming a
problem and it is believed the
organization of a pool will be a big
help in solving it,
Organization of the pool is be-
ing fostered by Al Appelgren, a
sheep owner of Wolf Point, and
by the county extension service.
Early indications point to the or
ganization of pool with 10000
feeces contracted.

FALLS BETWEEN CARS OF
WORK TRAIN, MARLEY
SIDING, THURS.

F. J. Mullis, known to his friends
as Pat" was killed at Marley
Siding, about fifteen miles west of
Williston, Thursday fore noon
about $50. Mullis was working
as brakeman on a work train
crew employed on the double
tracking which is being done be-
tween Williston and Snowden.
So far as learned there were no
eye-witnesses to the accident, and
it is presumed Mullis fell between
two cars while passing over the
Taint A portion of the train
passed over the body which was
picked up between the rails. The
wheels had not mutilated the
body Apparently he had been
killed by the fall or by being
struck by the moving train as he
fell to the track. The body was
taken to his home at Williston,
where his wife and four young
daughters reside.
Lived Here
Pat Mullis was one of the best
known and most popular young

resided in Wolf Point during the

While here he was married to
Miss Lillian Anderson who was
