Klein COLMLLEMOD: Reruced LOYAList ‘ ‘HE War of the Revolution - ended in 1783, and thousands of American colonists remained loyal to England. Rather than re- main in the new United States, these loyalists moved north into Canada, them settling in what is now St. John, New Brunswick. So numer- ous were they that they brought about the separation of New Brunswick from Nova Scotia, as | @ separate province. On the 150th anniversary of this event. in 1934, Canada issued a special stamp, shown below, on which the old New Brunswick seal is illustrated. . The seal. had been in use until 1830. New Brunswick, previous to the Loyalist migration, was part of the French province of Acadia. Upon the expulsion of the Aca- | @iagns by the British, it passed in- ‘to British control and became part of Nova Scotia. Pyateastenseee right, 1936, NEA.

That the showers covered only local areas, however, was indicated by members of the Bismarck Men's Chorus who:reported a heavy rain at Flasher where they sang Monday Inight, but that most of the area bee | tween Flasher and Mandan had re- ceived little or no precipitaton. Despite the welcome moisture, how- ever, the crop outlook throughout most of the Dakotas continued dark, many grain fields being beyond re- covery. Three other states in the spring wheat belt, however, reported more optimistically. Nebraska, which. con- tributes a relatively small ‘share, re- ported its crop in “fine shape,” while Minnesota and Iowa prospects were listed as fair to good. Tell the Story Over the entire belt the moisture deficiency figure told the story—a story already reflected in sharply rising market prices. Most of the spring wheat area hoped for rain but none was in prospect on the basis of latest forecasts. In North Dakota rainfall thus far this year was as much as 5.11 inches below normal in the Bismarck area and averaged 2.13 inches for the en- tire state to June 1. Most of the state had been without important rain since June 7. Then rains fell as churches throughout the state observed a day of prayer for relief from drouth proclaimed by Gov. Walter Welford. In the western section of North Da- kota many fields already had been abandoned. The eastern half re- ported prospects from fair to good. Nebraska Outlook Good In Nebraska. A. E. Anderson, fed- eral crop statistician, characterized the small grain stands as in “fine shape.” Two or three inches of rain have fallen there since June 1. South Dakota shared North Dako- ta’s gloomy prospects. Governor Tom Berry took cognizance of what he termed a “serious condition” created by drouth and grasshopper threats when he called a meeting of county commissioners and relief officials Thursday to plan relief. Minnesota and Iowa shared fair to Rev. J. P. Klausler of Hankinson, N. D., president of the North Da- kota-Montana district of the Mis- souri Synod Lutheran church, will preside at the sessions of the annual convention which opens Wednesday at Zap. Southwestern Saskatchewan, hith- rto dry and in need of rain for days, also reported heavy precipitation and prospects were for more. Elbow reported 1.18 inches and Out- lwok .84. One inch of rain fell at an and nearly as much at Moose- jaw. Q Rains were general over the prairies, though early reports indicated the north central areas in each province were receiving the heaviest downpour. Mother of Florence And L. R. Baird Dies Miss Florence Baird, 406 Sixth St., and L. R. Baird of Dickinson, receiver of closed banks who is headquartered here, have returned from Minneapolis where they were summoned by the serious illness and death of their mother, Mrs. M. J. Baird, 74. She passed away Monday, June 8, and the rites were held Wednesday at Little Falls, Wis., where burial was made. Paul H. Kirk, federal crop statistician for Minnesota, said wheat depreciation in that state since June 1 was “very slight if any.” Con- dition then was 85 per cent of nor- mal. On June 1 Minnesota’s average precipitation was within 47 inch of normal. CANADIAN PRAIRIES GET SOAKING RAINS Winnipeg. June 16.—()—Soaking rains poured down upon western Can- ada’s prairie lands today. The mois- ture invigorated growing crops that in some sections had begun to wilt after days of near drouth.
