NORTH DAKOTA’S THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA, WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1928 SECRETARY WILBUR BRINGS COOLIDG | OLDEST NEWSPAPER ESTABLISHED 1873 5 NORTH DAKOTA WILL HARVEST BUMPER CROPS Danger From Rust Practically Past With Little Damage Reported RYE, BARLEY CUTTING ON Grain Lodging Due to Exces- sive Rainfall Prevalent in Many Counties Reports to the Bank of North Da- kota by its field agents indicate that North Dakota this year will have one of the best grain crops in its history. From all sections of the state these men are sending the most optimistic reports ever received here. Danger from rust is declared to be practically past with little dam- age in prospect from this source. The rye and barley harvest is start- ing now and will be general within a week. Cutting of wheat is expected to start within two weeks in some sections and will be general in three weeks. Most of the field men, all of whom are expert crop observers, say the harvest this year will be from 10 aad to two weeks earlier than nor- mal, Flax is in bloom and the stand is heavy. The state will have one of the heaviest hay crops in his his- tory. Cattle are fat and pastures ‘was never better at this season. Haying in Foster, Eddy and Wells counties is well under way, accord- ing to A. L. Miller, but has been hampered by heavy rainfall. De- spite this handicap the hay crop is expected to be fairly heavy in this district. Lodged Grain Worries Numerous reports of lodged grain, due to excessive rainfall, were re- ceived. A few fields in the vicinity of Bottineau were drowned out, ac- cording to H. M. Erickson. A field of flax near Norwich also was dam- aged. “Despite damage from excessive rainfall and hail storms in a few sec- tions of the Minot territory, general opinion here is very optimistic. No complaints of rust have been made and it is the opinion of many farm- ers that the danger from the disease is past. The wheat stems here are very husky and even if rust did ap- pear the damage would be slight, the farmers say. “Condition of pasture and live- stock is the best in many years. Many new buildings in towns and cities of this area are being erected.” Storms in several places in the northwest and central sections of the state did some damage to farm buildings and homes, besides dam- age to field crops, said H. Leutz. However, he said, winds in general were moderate and with the excep- tion of two hot days the temperature ‘was normal. Letuz expressed -the belief that the harvest in general in that sec- tion of the state will be a week earlier than in normal years. Pas tures and livestock are in good con- dition, he said. “Prospects on western edge of the state were never considered bet- ter,” the report stated. “Condition of the fields here has not been bet- tered for many years. Taking this section as a whole, I believe we will get as good a crop if not better than we have had for at least 10° or 12 years. Golden Valley and Billings counties have very good crops. Hail did a little local damage.” Belfield Wheat Good He said the best stand of wheat in his territory was in the territory south of Belfield. Rye harvest is expected to start the latter part of this week and barley and wheat a week later. Winds and temperatures in south- west North Dakota during the last week have been favorable to grow- ing grains, said C. A. Seamands. General prospects there are consid- erably better the - average Barley will be harvested in a few days. Seamands reported that some boiling: is being done in that sec- ion. Haying in the northwestern part of the state has been dslaxee by frequent rains and some low! is under water, T. C. Charlson said. “Farmers ALD A ie section gem ° ts are. years,’ I. Danrying is steadily increasing, as well as cattle and hog raising. Some rye will be harvested in al ry week, while the general harvest will start in about two weelts. Wheat harvest. will commence in about or four weeks unless the weather turns hot and dry. In that case it will be earlier. Corn in this section is later normal this year, but the is small.” In a report weather bureau La Foilette Grave Is * Shrine of Strikers Kenosha, Wis.

After proposing Earl Balfour's health, the Prince of Wales said: “Lord Balfour was a cabinet min- ister eight years before I was born. For well over half a century he has maintained his golf handicap at a lower level than mine is likely to touch for sometime to come. These two considerations alone would make it impertinent for me to try and give you an estimate of his career.” WEST ARRIVES © IN WASHINGTON Washington, July —P)-~The department of interix: welcome] a new chief today when Roy O.

Strawn, president, and official reports, and elect members, Growing lack of confidence in the integrity of all public officials, be- cause of “bribery and corruption in public office” by bootleg money, was depicted in a report read last night {by Jacob M. Lashley, president of the St. Louis Bar association, in the absence of his brother, Arthur V. Lashley, St. Louis, the author, who conducted an official investigation for that group. Lashley, whose report was based mposium of opinions of of- publishers, and law enforce- ment agents in mony representative large cities, placed “the real prob- lem of crime and failure of justice in many parts of the country” di- rectly at the door of the bootlegging industr: “Bribery and corruption have be- come common occurrences,” he said, “because the cupidity of politicians and state and government officials generally has been excited by the enormous profits of bootlegging, which, being unlawful, are consid- ered legitimate prey.” By-products of the illegal indus- try—the thug, bombing and hi-jack- ing gangs—often utilizy their spare moments in influencing elections by terrorism, and in extortion schemes, Lashley said. “Many murders, holdups, and other major crimes are directly chargeable to this source.” Lashley reported more or less in- iseriminate trafficking in intoxi- cants in violation of the law in a large majority of America. cities of, 100,000 population and over. . A vigilant and informed public, insisting on honesty in office, was the prime remedy suggested. Per- manent imprisorment of habitual law violators, organized bureaus of criminal statistics to aid in deter- mining those offenders, rigid en- forcement or repeal of the prohibi- tion laws, and breaking up of gang rule and corruption of officials, were other suggestions for dealing with the professional criminal clas:.
