Is Important Meeting J._F. Reed, St. Paul, president of the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federa- tion, is nresident of the board, which has sessions quarterly, to bring about co-operation between carrier: and shippers. Because of iearnes. «* the crop moving season, the mid- summer meeting is deemed of great importance, since fairly accurate production estimates are avzilable. Forecast of a barley crop equal to the bumper crop of 1927 was made by R. F. Gunkelman, “argo, in his annual report as vice president of the state organization. Estimate : on the wheat and durum |} woduction ‘indicate 8,168,000 bushels 00c of on a crop of durum 4,633, The hard spring wheat crop is placed at 51,966,000 bushels on 5,618,000 | acres, showing a condition of 74. “The production of rye for 1928 will be much less tha: year ago,” he said. Judging from reports now at hand tle total production of the state should not ex: 43,u00 . bushels, Uats Are Average “Reports point t» an acreage secd- ed to oats practically the same as a year ago and with a cundition up to @ 10-year The production of this crop :! be considerahiy higher than in “Because of acrea| the‘early drought, the seeded iv flax is somewhat .. than a year ag». Reports in- icate a seeded area som? 3 per cent @maller than 19 3:27. e condition of the flax crop is very promising end the final yield should be at least 80 per cent of lust year's yield. “The acreage sceded to potatoes 4s about 15 per cent greater than in 1927. The condition of the crop does not indicut:: a production ccual to the 11,525,090 bushe!x produce Yast year. The stan-] in the fie!ds is thin and considerabl2 of the acreage in the Red y has been damaged by excessive rains. “In 1927 North Dakota produced 23,975,000 bushels of corn. The acre- age planted to this crop this year shows a slight increase over the 1927 acreage. The condition of the corn crop on this date is much hign- er than a year ago. Pig Prices Better “The pig crop in the state is some- what below that of a year ago but indications are for better prices so that the North Dakota farmers may secure as much money for a less number of pigs than was secured for last year’s larger production. There is a renewed interest in placing sheep and cattle on farms that here- tofore have been straight grain pro- ducing farms. “With the continued sale of com- bine harveste:3 in western sections of the state and a larger number of trucks on the farms, and with no increase in the elevator capacity of the state, transportation companies will be called upon to move a large Percentage of the crop during the early fall months.” JOB GRABBERS WORRY SHAFER Regardless of whether George F. Shafer becomes the next governor of North Dakota, there are a lot of peo- ple who are sufficiently sure of his election to warrant them in making Arelication for state jobs. ‘ince Shafer the job hunttrs are letting no grass iad under their feet in their ef- forts to establish themselves with the incoming administration, Shafer himself has little to say about his Prcaperts of becoming governor or the policies whic! e ‘will pursue if and when he takes of- .

A tabulation of the re- S per cent. y transporation servic in the northwest region in the la: six months has been satisfactoi Kube said. “Pasture lands are in a fair! No section has reported lack of mais- ment of livestock at this tim hay and fo’ 3 at the pi time appe ghtly below the normal production, which’ factor may have a tendency of increasing live- stock marketings beyond the usuat volume as the season advances, e there are any con- present in our | ‘ock industry which are likely to | affect transportation demands through the next quarter. There has een a considerable increase in re- ceipts of all classes of livestock at. stockyards except calves. T!’: might indicate that farmers are culling out their poor stuff and holding back a larger percentage of calves as re- placements. The percentage of in- crease in shipments occurring dur- ing the first half of the year will be at least maintained ing the sec- ond half.” Kube’s report on the livestock sit- uation was borne out by a report of George J. Baker, field agent in live- stock in this ¥ “Beef cattle had a good winter with ample roughage,” Baker said. “Considerable baby beef has been marketed the last three months, The calf crop ‘is fully up to normal. Pas- tures were late thi ar due to the continued cold. While first cutting alfalfa was light, prospects are for a heavy second cutting. The crop is about normal. The latab crop was reduced somewhat by cold weather but the total lamb crop is above that of last year.” ‘ Officers Goosestep at Fort Drill Field Army officers ranging from griz- zled old veterans to the younger members cf the squads are being drilled in the more intricate sub- jects of army life at Fort Lincoln this week.

Politics formed the subject of con- ences the Republican presidential ndidate had arranged with Mrs. orthington Scranton, national committeewoman from Pennsyl- vania, and Representative John O. ilson of Connecticut, Republican leader of the house of representa- tives, and chairman of the eastern speakers bureau. One of the questions which ‘Tilson will have to determine is whers Sen- ator Hiram Johnson of California can be used to the best advantage during the campaign; whether his forceful argument will be of more value to the national ticket im the east or in the west. Senator Johnson, who was a lunch- eon guest of Secretary Hoover yes- terday, has tendered his services and has left it to the campaign maragers to say where he is to stump for the national ticket during such time as he can spare from his own campaign for reelection here in California, Slight Discord Seen While the senior California sen- ator has come out for the Hoover- Custis ticket, there are more than surface indications that he and the Republican presidential nominee are not entirely in accord with respec the activities of the public wi ities associations, the “power trust’ as the senator describes it. Whether Mr. Hoover will touch upon that auestion in his acceptance addr on August 11 remains to be seen, but the general impressi1 here is that he will not, since the Republican platform makes no men- tion of it and the nominee 1s expect- ed to confine himself to an iter- pretation of that platform. Senator Johnson’s informal state- ments to the newspaper correspond- ents after his talk with Mr. Hoover served only to strengthen the belief that the nominee will not se make this subject a campaign is: The California senator, who has been more often opposed to the Hoover policies in the past than in favor of them, said that it was for Mr. Hoover to state the issues. “Power Trust’ Issue He added, however, that he would make the “power trust” an issue in his own campaign, announcing that he would open fire next week in ad- dresses in the southern part of thre state. The senator attributes to the “power irust” effective oppo: to congressional action on his Bou der Canyon Dam bill, which has failed of passage in the Senate dur- ing the past two sessions of con- busters, icial home-coming celebration is to come tater, Mr. Dignity marks our service at all times.

Funeral Directors P 248 Night Phone 246 or 887 Hoover received an impromptu one at his home last night which prob- ably gave him as much if not more genuine delight than any he will receive in his home state. It was staged by the 1,200 young men and women students attending the Stan- ford University summer school. While hundreds of town folks looked on from a nearby hill, the students cheered the presidential nominee and gave their college yells and sang their college songs in his honor. The candidate and trustee of Stanford told the students that every man would rather have a re- ception from his own college men and women than from any other body of men and women and that he appreciated the reception. Mrs. Hoover joined her husband on the front portico of their home while their dinner guests ~ looked down upon the scene from vantage points on top of the house. PILGRIMS FEW AT AL’S HOME Smith Keeps Quiet Vigil While Advisers Handle Reins of Campaign Albany, N. Y., July 24—7)— Deviating from the customary course . of presidential nominees, Governor Smith has kept pretty much to himself since his selection as the Democratic standard bearer nearly four weeks ago, and since then has held relatively few political conferences of importance. . While it has been his wish that for the present at least they be held to a minimum, almost daily he is in contact with old friends, advisers of long standing, and from time to time he has talked over the outlook with some party leader, there have been none of the pilgrimages to the home of the nominee usually is the case, after @ political convention.
