Of adapted varieties would be stored
in warehouses In county areas % well
as terminal elevators. The seed will
be available to farmers Of wheat states
whose crops were destroyed by the
drouth and who have no reserve
supply OF seed.
In proposing the storage plan 70
Wallace, Sinclair said II present grain
supplies were shipped out Of North
Dakota and other states, growers
would be compelled to import grain
in the spring, probably at increased
prices plus freight both ways. There
was danger also, Sinclair said, Of re-
ceiving seed that was not acclimated
or that would contain noxious weeds.
Sinclair estimated North Dakotas
spring needs 1t from to 10 million
bushels. He asserted there was SUI
ficient wheat in North Dakota to take
care Of spring needs provided It can
be kept there and not disposed Of out
side the state.
Under the storage plan, Sinclair
said, some farmers would receive reed
doles from the government-provid-
ing they were too destitute to ar
range for loanS-Some would be per-
mitted to buy the seed and the others
probably would obtain it through gov
ernmental loans. He predicted con-
gress would be forced to pass further
seed loan legislation, despite predic-
tiors at the last session that the 1888
act would be the last.
1.-THE secretarys action should re-
suit in much benefit to wheat farm
ers," Sinclair said.

Editor, Tribune:
I am very much surprised to think
the people of Bismarck would allow 4
man who has done for them what
Chris Martineson has done to be
treated as he is being treated now.
No matter what the charges are he
has for % years protected this city.
He has given up night after night
to stand on the street while the city
slept-protected. Sundays. holidays,
all times, he has worked while others
played and now because he Is sick
they want to just throw him out. His
whole aim and ambition has been to
keep a clean city and this is hts
thanks. I should think the business
men would rise In rebellion at such
an action.
We don't know. Of course, what the
city commissioners have up their
sleeves but whatever they have they
might have handled the whole mat
ter with a little more diplomacy.

Butterfat Production
Doubled at New Salem

New Salem, N. D., Aug. 29.-R1-
An increase In the average butterfat
production OF their cows to double
the average for the state has been
accomplished after Is years Of opera
ton by members Of the North Dakota
Holstein Breeding Circuit association,
H. Buss, superintendent, announced
Wednesday.
Purebred herds developed in the
community have been an important
source Of breeding stock for other
farmers, with the result that the dis
trict has become one of the leading
dairy regions of the state, Buss said.
National attention has been at
tracted to the success Of the associa-
ton and it has become q model for
similar groups In other parts Of the
United States.
"All members of the circuit have
been able to weather the critical con-
ditions brought on by drouth and low
dairy prices" Buss said, And 50 far
none Of the superior quality breeding
stock owned by the members has had
to be sacrificed
The breeding circuit plan which en-
ables the purchase Of high quality
purebred bulls and the rotation Of
these sires among the herds Of the
circuit members has proved profit
able for these farmers, he said.

the hour for their trek for the
West, there was a bit Of wonder
ment on their faces, wonderment
because of the continued losses
taken recently, and wonderment
because of the lack Of breaks re-
ceived.
When will it End
When will it all end? seemed
to be the question on everybody'S
lips. Can nine games be re-
duced? Can a comeback be
made against the Western clubs.
The Griffs would like to know
the answer.
In the Yankee series, which
ended yesterday, Cronin and his
gang began to realize that they
would have to play top-notch ball
to overcome the current deficit q
9 games.
The team battled splendidly in
each of the contests, but the
Yanks happened to go them one
better in every instance but one
when the Griff's snatched a 9-toB
triumph.
During these games, the YankS
received cagey pitching from
every man with the exception OF
Charlie Ruffing and Russell Van
Alta, who were far off form in
that 9-to-8 triumph the GriffS
scored. Johny Broaca was in
great fettle in the opening con-
test, while Lefty Gomez and Jim
mie Deshong, comparative rockies,
all turned in well-pitched games
in the other two the YankS regis
tered.
In comparison, Walter Stewart
"threw" a couple Of bad pitches in
the first contest which enabled
the Yanks to win, while General
Alvin Crowder, Jack Russell,
Monte Weaver and Tommy Thon1-
as experienced the same fate IN
the other two. The result, three
Yankee victories.
The Griffs lost yesterdays
game, 6 to 3, due to the presence
of Babe Ruth, who whacked out a
homer and double. both with men
on bases. Heine ManuSh gathered
two circuit cloutS for the Griffs.
but these were far from enough to
stem the tide. Jack Saltzgaver
also hit well for the YankS by
getting four hits in four trips to
the plate. This added insult to
injury as the former Newark star
has been decidedly underated BY
the Griffs all season.
The Washington times., 1934-07-09

Manager Joe Cronin had time
to put in this word regarding his
Griffmen today while awaiting
the staging of the All-Star game
here tomorrow.
Added Joe: "The pitchers
turn in pretty fair efforts on
the mound, but one bad pitch
here and there, and our chances
of winning a ball game are
ruined. However, maybe the
breaks will come our way a
little better in the near future.
They're certainly due"
The solemn expressions by the
young leader, following tn e
Griffs' third loss at the hands OF
the New York Yankees, 6 to 3
were symbolic of the mood of the
entire Griff roster today.
AS the boys sat around and
twiddled their thumbs awaiting
