Sees Prospects for a Bumper Yield in Northwest SOME SPOTS BURNED QUT Minneapolis, Minn., June 27.-—We} are now approaching the crucial stage | The con: ditions in Minnesota, Soutn Dakota | and Eastern North Dakota have main- | tained their fine standard. Western ‘North Dakota and par‘s of: Montana have suffered because of hot winds With very few excop-| tions, conditions are almost ideal. All small grains have had a fine grewik Wheat which is now heading has an excellent color. Barley and oats indi- cate a-big yield and corn is maki fine headway. uth Dakota: This staic, as a whole, has never had better prospects. There are a few places where rain would freshen the grain, but there is no suffering for lack of moisiuie. All small grains have a healthy color, a good stand and promise a big’ yield, unless damaged by rust or ho. weati- er.: Corn is improving rapidly ané shows a very satisfactory condition. North Dakota: The western part of the state shows the effects of hot winds and insufficient moisture and there are burnéd spots showing in some fields. Rains would improve this condition, but much of the dam. dge could not be repaired. From Mi- not, east, conditions improve very rap- idly and around Devils Lake pros- pects were never better. Yesterday a good rain in the Jamestown dis- trict undoubtedly helped conditions there, as some of the grain was turn- ing a little yellow. The winter rye is showing a little damage throughout the state. The cause of this is due to either heavy frosts late in the spring or recent hot winds, and the damage may be 5 or 10 percent. Some late flax is backward, due to lack of mois- ture. Much of the early flax is in bloom and shows a fine condition. ‘Montana: The northern part of the state, along the Great Northern rail- road, has suffered because of dry wea- ther and hot winds. eports indicate that, with rains and favorable weather from now on, a half crop in this terri- tory could be raised. The eastern sec- tion is in fair condition, but also needs rain very badly. In some of the valleys in’ the southern portion of the state the wheat on irrigated land is do‘rg well, while that on dry farming is not so good. Early flax in the eastern part of:the state is in fair condition, but Minnesota; late flax is backward and much of it From now on, we may expect rapid changes in conditions. The great nec- essity, is occasional rains until har- very rapidly, this being no doubt due todack of moisture in the subswi!. The Van Dusen Harrington Co. f MANDAN NEWS | °. DOW HOME FOR VISIT.

Woods will present at the Bis- marck Auditorium on Monday July 2 for an engagement: of one night only direct from its successful run at the Bijou Theatre, New York, where it has just finished an engagement of three months. The plot of the piece deals with the escapades of three im- | tain Mary Jane Smith in order to get some much needed wedding presents from his close relatives An actual (Mary Jane Smith appears as the | young man’s patient, and learns of her It woul dnot be fair to divulge the complications that en- sue.
