THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 21, 1930 j ~ JALKOFRESEEDING ~ TN MONTANA: NORTH DAKOTA AFFECTED Dry 1929 Kept Seeds From Ger- ' minating, but Heavy Rains Have Started Them FLAX ACREAGE IS GROWING Yorn Planting About Third Done in Minnesota; Feed for Stock Plentiful Heavy growth of weeds in many sections of North Dakota, Minnesota and Montana threaten to reduce yields and to damage the quality of grains, according to the weekly sur- vey of crop conditions of the North- west spring wheat area issued today by the Farmers Union Terminal asso- ciation. The weather bureau here reported continued rains in North Dakota have put the subsoil in fine condition and that small grains are up to a good stand with good color and well stool- ed. Plowing for corn is under way in North Dakota generally and corn is being planted in sections where it is dry enough to permit it. The dry summer of 1929 did not permit the weeds to sprout in that year, with the result that the seeds remained dormant, the review says, but are thriving with grains due to moisture of the past few weeks. “Except for the rapid growth of weeds, conditions are ideal for wheat and other early seeded small grains,” the review states. “Seeding of corn has been delayed in all sections of the territory because of the heavy rains, but the soil is in excellent condition and when weather permits seeding, will be helpful for the growth. “The situation of weeds, however, is so serious that there have been some reports of reseeding in a part of Fer- gus county, Montana. Correspondents at Glendive and Billings, Montana, comment on the unusual heavy growth also are being received from several sections of North Dakota, particularly in the vicinity of Shey- enne. “Not only does the -weed growth re- duce grain yields, but much foul mat- ter is thrashed with the grain, which reduces the quality and grading and increases the dockage. The drouth | yy, of 1928 resulted in production of a short crop, but of an usually high quality. While too early to make any definite forecasts, it ould appear that the 1930 crop prospects are for large yields per acre and lower quality. “With seeding virtually completed except in wet areas, indications are that the acreage of durum wheat has been reduced even more sharply than anticipated. A correspondent at Stan- ley, N. D., estimates spring wheat acreage has been cut 15 per cent in Renville, Williams, Mountrail, Burke, McKenzie, Ward and Divide counties. “Plax seeding is progressing rapidly with a sharp gain in acreage of flax and feed crops. Barley seeding is progressing as rapidly as weather will permit, but the crop will be in rather Jate due to heavy moisture. “The cool weather has resulted in slow growth, but deep rooting of plants and heavy stooling, which will permit the plants to resist a period of dry weather later on. “Western Minnesota generally re- Ports a large increase in flax acreage, plowing for and seeding of corn, which is about one-third done, and scarcity of good seed corn in some districts. “Pastures and grass crops are in good condition in most sections, with plenty of feed available for livestock in all districts. “The reduction of wheat acreage in the vicinity of Devils Lake, N. D., is estimated by a correspondent at 25 per cent and the increase in flax acreage at 40 per cent, these changes. being the sharpest that have been re- Ported for any area. “Sunshine and warm weather are needed for crop development in the Northwest. “The trend of wheat prices has been stronger recently with reports of poor stooling, thin stands and short heads and straw in parts of Okla- homa and Kansas and continued drought in eastern Missouri, along with an unexpectedly sharp decline in visible supplies.” Clergymen of Three States Participate In Sheyenne Meeting Rev. O. H. Hallgrimson, Ellendale, is moderator of the association.

Seeding of wheat is virtually com- pleted, except in northern districts where the continued rains delayed farm work. Barley and oats are more than half seeded. Reporters esti- mate that for the state, 60 per cent: of the barley has been seeded and 67 per cent of the oats. Seeding of flax and corn have begun and potato’ planting will begin in the Red.
