This pamphlet is to be published bi- monthly and is to interest the people in native wild life. meet A short history of the society tells of the desire to bring people inter- ested in the things out of doors to- gether for the exchange of ideas and for the aggregation of strength. Thej field of interest and study was in- tended to include both plant and an-; imal life native to this country. The| name was chosen at the suggestion of Dr. Gilmore. The aim of the society; is to work for the intelligent conserva- tion and protection of all native wild! life, of birds, of animals, of trees and flowers, and of all scenic beauty; spots. A collection of photographs and of on the subjects of interest to the so- ciety. Also a collection of specimens | of native mammals and of native birds, is being made for study by the mem- bers. A collection of the native flora is also being made. An alcove is main- tained in the Bismarck city library where may be found nature books and magazines upon the native floral and faunal life. The society offers its ben- efits.and privileges to all persons who may be interested in its purpose, whether they be members or not, but earnestly invites the membership of ‘all persons who desire to associate themselves with its endeavors.

WEATHER GOOD IN NORTHWEST FOR HARVEST Cutting of Wheat is Completed in Many Parts of the Northwest The weekly crop report of Van Dusen-Harrington company, grain commission merchants, of Minne- apolis, dated Aug. 3. says: The weather has been favorable the past week for harvest in the North- west. The cutting of wheat and dur- um has been completed except in the northern districts, where it will not be finished for two weeks or more. Recent rains have helped the late wheat, especially in Montana and Northwestern North Dakota. While the entire territory is very spotted, there will be some good yields of wheat in places. It is impossible to get an accurate estimate of averages at the present time, owing to the great variation of the crops. The general run of wheat will be light, but the quality should be good. Threshing is progressing through: out the southern half of the territory and our reports indicate that returns are a little better than expected. Black rust has been quite general in most of the fields of late wheat in North Dakota. It developed so slow- ly that we believe only a medium amount of damage has been cause by it. We find that much of the sup- posed damage from rust, is really due to blight and heat. As reported in our previous letters. the crops of barley and oats are poor. They were badly affected by heat a are of light weight. We have had a few reports of good yields ranging from 40 ‘n 50 hushels of oats to the acre. These, however, are the ex- ception. The corn.crop is developing very favorably. Recent rains have nelpec it and the ears are filling exceptional- ly well. If this crop is not damaged by early frosts it will probably be the largest ever raised in the North- west. The favorable conditions ex- tend into parts of North Dakota where corn is not usually successful, and some of the northern districts that have never shipped out corn be- fore, may do it this year. Our late reports on flax are not very favorable. There are a few places where it is fair, but where sown on old ground the fields are ex- tremely weedy or much of it ha wilted. Several of our representa- tives who have covered North Dakota recently were very much disappoint- ed at the outlook for the flax crop. KODAK FINISHING Many in Pool.

DODGE TRUCK, NEW CREATION, SHOWN IN CITY Large Truck Exhibited For First | Time in Bismarck—Many New Features On their salesroom floor, M. B. Gil- man Co. is now showing one of the large trucks which they have just re- ceived from Dodge Brothers, and which, because of its low price and sturdy construction has been very en- thusiasticly admired by all who are familar with truck construction. In addition to this truck being the very latest and most approved con-j struction, it has the further advantage of being comparitively light in weight ‘Taking the average of some 65 other well known trucks, this weighs from 700 to 1500 pounds less, making a; large saving in oil, gasoline and tires. In other words this Dodge Brothers truck brings hauling costs down to; the lowest possfble point. Cost per ton mile also takes into consideration the amount of money invested in the.truck. Here also Dodge Brothers have a decided advantage, as with Graham Brothers truck equip- ment, this outfit sells for $1000.00 less than the average price of 49 other well known trucks. Equipped with a stake body, cab and delivered in Bis- marck this truck sells for only $1875. Dodge Brothers complete line is of important consideration to anyone with a hauling problem as they offer the lighter 3-4 ton business car in ad- dition to the heavier trucks.

TENANCY INCREASE ON FARM IS DISCUSSED BY RESERVE BOARD A supplement to the 78th report of the Federal Reserve Agent at Minne- apolis, on the subject of farm ten- ancy, says: There has been a substantial in- crease in the number of farms in the four important states of this district during the last ten years, but unfor- tunately the number of tenants has shown a much greater proportionate |increase during the same period. Ac- cording to figures recently published by the Federal Bureau of the Census for the states of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Montana, there were 389,500 farms in 1920, or an increase of more than 16 per cent. over 1910. The number of farms in Montana doubled in the ten-year per- iod while Minnesota had a 14 per cent jncrease, North Dakota a 4 per cent increase, and South Dakota a decrease of 3 per cent. In each of the four stales there has been a decrease in the percentage of farms operated by their owners; and for the total of the| four. states the. percentage declined from 79.7 to 73.8 per cent. The num- ber of farms operated by managers is about one per cent in each state and the proportion of farms operated by tenants, has risen from 19:5 in 1910 to 25.1 per cent of the total. in 1920. In other words, the proportion of farms operated by tenants has in- creased 28 per cent from 1910 to 1920. ‘This increase is largest in North Da- kota (79 per cent) and smallest in Minnesota (18 per cent). The number of new farms added during the ten-year period totaled 55,000, whereas the increase in farms operated by their owners was 21,000 and the increase in farms operated by tenants was 33,000. This is merely another way of stating that there has been a significant increase in tenancy in these four states. From a recent investigation made by this bank, it appears that the great majority of rented farms are rented on a grain-share basis. In North Da- kota 94 per cent of the rented farms are on this bas: in Montana, 88 per cent; in South Dakota, 85 per cent; and in Minnesota, 71 per cent. The farmer who has been renting on a cash basis has experienced a reduction of —————————————_ HAY FEVER I have been a victim of Hay Fever for the past five years and could find no relief, until this year, when I got Mr. Robertson’s cure. My eyes were so bad and sota, South Dakota and Montana, but in North Dakota the average rent paid increased this year over last. In the states where the average cash rent has decreased, the rentals charged are still about 40 per cent higher than in 1914. The experience of the farmers with declining values of farm products during the past year has caused a large proportion of farmers who had been renting on a cash basis to change, when permitted, to a grain- share basis, but few farmers have grown discouraged to the extent that they have given up their farms en- tirely.
