FARMERS URGED TO

men who have canvassed a large part
OF the state. The thought is con-

and other authorities.
Even though q second crop of al.
falfa for hay would seem to be val
liable for feeding this fall and winter.
we still believe the seed, If threshed.
Will pay better returns" Gordon W.
Randlett, special field man for the
association, declares. "The average
field of alfalfa II cut for hay would
yield perhaps one third ton, against a
prospective yield Of so to rs pounds Of
seed per acre If threshed. The price
average of seed for last year, Is to 80
cents, should be maintained this year
according to present prospects"
The association conducted extensive
sales efforts in placing small quanti-
ties Of alfalfa seed over the state
during the past two years. This Is re-
garded as one factor in the seeding

SHERIDAN WHEAT
/ AVERAGING FAIR
Yield for County approximately
Ten Bushels per Acre;
Quality Varies

McClusky, N. D., Aug. 19.-Harvest.
ing in Sheridan county is nearing
completion and threshing has been
under way in some localities for 9
week or more. The indicated wheat
average for the county at this time
Is about 10 bushels an acre, according
to present threshing returns.
The harvest this year has been the
earliest in several years, due to rapid
ripening Of grains because of the heat.
An inspection of grains at thresh-
ing rigs IN this community and at
local elevators shows considerable
variation in the quality Of wheat
threshed this year. Hard northern
spring wheat is ranging in grades
from number one down to number
three, the weights IS to 60 pounds a
bushel. Practically all wheat here
seems to have good color.
George Reiswig Of near Lincoln VAL

TONS OF JULY Rains
Water Which Failed to Fall in
U. S. Would Float All
Worlds Nayjes

Washington, Aug. 19.-P}-Au the
navies Of the world could be floated
many times ove in the water which
has failed to fall upon the United
States through the drought.
j. B. Kincer. chief agricultural
meteorologist of the weather bureau,
today computed the deficiency in
normal rainfall for the states east of
the Rocky mountains during the
month OF July and found it would
aggregate 10000. 900 900 tons. The
average daily shortage, he estimated,
was 7,4oo. 00O, 900 tons.
AS against this total, the fighting
ships Of the navies Of the United
States, Great Britain and Japan,
under the terms of the London treaty,
would displace only approximately
100000 tons Of water.
An inch of rain over an acre of
ground totals liz tons, Kincer ex-
planned. That amount is common
place in good, soaking rains.
July rainfall deficiency in tons was
as follows: Including South
Dakota 10,500, 000, 900; Iowa 5000, 000,-

Farmers receive far less for their

we farmers have been the under

Stuart operates a 153-acre farm.
He figures that with s13,395 in
vested in his business, his gross in
come was S34114 during 1928 This
he compares with the wages paid
school teachers. railway workers
and others. He estimates, after al
lowing for interest and for the
labor of his children on the farm,
that he received S306.51 for 4,067
hours of work, or seven and half
cents an hour.
Can you imagine any other trade
OF profession working for that pitt
full sum?" he asks.
For instance, just compare what

My brother has a run of two hours
in the morning and two in the
afternoon, four hours of actual
