PAGE EIGUT _ BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE i ' SATURDAY, JULY 3, 1920 “tURGE 8-HOUR DAY HOPPERS HELD BACK BY RECENT ~ HEAVY RAINS Entomologist for Agricultural College Sees Benefit Also in Poison Attack Stewart Lockwood, entomologist for the state agricultural college, was in Bismarck, Tuesday, looking over the grasshopper campaign heing waged jn this county. He stated that the rain during the past few days, over the entire state had checked the grasshoppers for the time being. The grasshopper poison is proving a great help in controlling the hop- pers and is being used in large quan- _ tities. In a few cases, Mr. Lockwood stated, the poison did not kill the hop- pers as expected. In some cases the arsenic had not been mixed with the bran and in other cases the poison had been applied before a rain. In checking up one field, where the poison had failed to work, Mr. Lock- wood found that the poison had kill | ed the hoppers, but that a new batch had sprung up. More poison was needed. At the present river valley is su time the Mouse ffering more than any other section of the state, but the farmers are well organized in most cases and are putting up a fight to save the crops. While the hoppers have not done as much damage as they did last year, they should be poisoned while they are young or the late crops will suf-| fer ‘severe damage. Mr. Lockwood praised County Agent Geo. W. Gus- tafson for his efforts in organizing the farmers against the hoppers.

The baton, according to the an- nouncement, will be the most orna- mental and expensive ever presented to a Marshal of France, The body of the baton, which is six inches in cir- cumterence, is made of costly blue enamel, and inset are fifty-two stars in gold, each bearing the name of a State or Territory. Cuba is represent- ed by a silver star set in the top of the wand. “The inscription on the gift is made in three places. At the bottom ap- pear the names of the Marshal’s prin- cipal victories—St. Gond, the second Marne, Metz and Strasbourg. Above this, in gold on red copper, enamel, runs the legend, “Terrible in war, gen- tle in peace.” Then, beyond the field of blue and stars, appears the inscrip- tion “Marechal Ferdinand Fpch, 1914- 1919,” surmounted by the golden arms of France, the United States, Lor- raine’s double cross and the crest of the K. of C. ) The baton is made of gold from Cal-' ilornia, sapphires from Montana and ore from Pennsylvania. It is hollow, to contain the illuminated address of presentation. The gift will be made by Supreme Knight James A.

Davis, state commander of the American Legion, who opened the state convention of the Legion here today. Mr. Davis referred to the political activities of what he termed as “anti- Americans” and asserted that ‘every American should take a firm. stand to combat the activities of political agitators inimical to America. “Recently a political party had a state convention in a city of this state and one plank of the platform was that all ‘political’ prisoners should be freed,” said Mr. Davis. “This party should change its name and be called the ‘Backers of the Slackers party.’ IT also wish to refer to another plank of its platform on free speech and free press. I want to quote from a book you have read in which this statement is made: “The beasts of the field have been tamed, but the tongue of no man has been tamed.’ My stand stand is in the side of Jesus Christ and not on the side of the Socialist party.’ One resolution to be advocated will declare that in the event of a strike the American Legion will observe a policy of strict neutrality and that no member of the Legion will take any action unless necessary to maintain law and order to preserve the-institu- tions of the United States. It appears that R. M. Gibson, state : adjutant, will be re-elected without opposition. 3 Candidates. for state commander include Clauius Pendill, commander. Kenosha post; J. M.
