\V CROP OUTLOOK - - ISTIMPROVED BY RAINFALL Moisture Brings Winter Rye Along—Prevents Blowing of Soil Rains which were, general throughout North Dakota last week have done much to improve the crop outlook, according to reports received at the Bank of North Da- kota from its field agents. In many places the moisture was needed to bring winter rye along on schedule and it also helped to pre- vent the blowing of soil which has been the main factor involved in the damage of grain crops so far this year. The rain also. was beneficial to pastures which have shown rapid improvement under the influence of moisture and sunshine. Reporting for the central western part of the state, H. Leutz said all seeding, with the exception of a little flax and corn, is completed and grain is coming up nicely. Pas- tures hav been slow but livestock is in good cdndition. He notes an increase in the acre- age planted to all crops, estimating the acreages for this year, in com- parison with the average year, as follows: wheat 110; oats and rye, 100; barley and flax, 110; and corn, 120. The average devoted to tame grasses is uncertain. Prospects generally are still good. Pastures Improving H. M. Erickson, reporting from Minot, said practically all seeding . THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE | Clowns Real Circus Attraction | The Christy Bros. Circus which will be here next Monday for two per- formances, has nearly two score of really funny clowns and these mighty monarchs of merriment and wit have a philosophy all their own which is to make two laughs grow where none had been before, and unlike most hilosophers they have the ability to make their philosophy come true. ‘he Christy Bros. Circus will arrive at dawn Sunday morning, and the unloading of this mystic caravan is well worth witnessing. On the Sab- has been completed and that pas- tures are improving. More red durum was sown this year than last because of the late season. The in- crease in acreage devoted to alfalfa and sweet clover is noticeable. He estimates the wheat acreage at 100 per cent of normal, oats 100; barley and flax 85; rye 90; corn average and tame grasses some _ increase. General conditions are held to be “quite favorable.” R. M. Rishworth reports consider- able killing of rye and alfalfa and estimates that the rye crop in the south central part of the state will be only 50 per cent of average. Pas- tures have been poor jor so late in the season. Wheat planted early on fall plowing or summer fallowing is doing well but late wheat is making ‘uneven progress. A. L. Miller, reporting for the northeastern part of the state, said wheat acteage was reduced about five per cent because of unfavorable weather conditions during the plant- ing season. Livestock is in average condition and pastures ‘are begin- ning to improve rapidly. Most of the land which would otherwise have been planted to wheat will be given over to@barley. The oats acreage will be 100 per cent of normal; barley 110; rye 80; flax 90; corn and tame grasses 1( Some fields of rye which did not winter well have been nlowed up and seeded to barley and flax. The southwestern part of the state bids fair to have another year of excellent crops, according to C. A. Seamands. He estimates the acreage of all crops as normal. In the northwestern part_of the state grain which was seeded early is doing well, T. E. Charlson re- ported. The wheat acreage is about \ normal. Farmers in that district have planted considerable sweet clover. Pastures have been slow but are improving and the general, prospects are good. Stunt Paddler Gives Exhibition Thursday Vincent Patrick Taylor, Austral- jan World War veteran, aviator, globetrotter, adventurer, “human boat,” merman, or what have you, will give an exhibition Thursday evening at 7 o’clock under the Me- morial bridge between Bismarck and Mandan. Taylor’s exhibition consists in ~ paddling about in his rubber “boat suit” with which he has. gained prominence all over the world. The suit fits his body like an enlarged suit of coveralls and Mr. Taylor, so arrayed, floats on his back, using a two-bladed paddle to guide him. He has performed many dangerous feats on most of the rivers and Jakes of the United States, and has been lauded by men of prominence. Among his souvenirs he treasures the autographs cf Governor Al Smith of New York and Mayor Rolfe of San Francisco. While Mr. Taylor performs for a local audience Thursday evening he will sing, “Just for Tonight.” Mail Carriers Help Gather Statistics Grand Forks, N.
