This committee, of course, is very representative of all the people of North Dakota, especially the farmers, who constitute most of the people, and it will see no class interest is served—so they want it believed. Bolley Issues Rust Warmng The following is a bulletin just issued by H. L. Bolley -of the Agncultural college' “I have had a number of letters from farmers asking whether rusty wheat should be cut early in order to keep the grain from shrivelling. T “For three years, particularly in 1904, 1 carried out a number of cutting experi- ments to ascertain whether there was any time previous to maturity at which it was preferable to cut rusty wheat; nLhese trials, even on rusty wheat, seem rto indicate that it is preferable to allow the straw to ripen normally, for rust does not atack all of the plants equally and those that are:-not heavily attacked wnll ripen some plump‘ seed. “C*If the gram is cut while there is milk in it, “all of ‘it w1ll be shnvelled. Therefore it is--my opmxon that the wheat ‘should ‘be ‘allowed” to" stand until by study ‘of -the straw ‘and 'grain each farmer is convinced that his partlcular."' field is ready to_cut. Usually the straw . should - be - yellow above the second joint from the ground. When the kernel-, is pinched it should emit no moisture or milk. “The . Barberry Bush: Observations made this year and past years, convince me that the Barberry bush, commonly planted as a hedge, should be declared a public nuisance and be destroyed wherever possible. This is a great destroyer of wheat as it starts the rust early in May. The sexual stage—male and female form of the wheat rust—is carried by the Barberry bush, and seems to serve as a constant reinvigorator of the Stem or ‘Black ‘Rust.” ” The amateur cartoomst ‘and reader of the Legdet who drew this picture showmg the result of political cooperation is a meodest” genius. He asks that his name be .withheld. The Nonpartisan League is shown as the ladder by which the:farmer climbs to gather the finest fruit of farm profits from the tree, instead of leaving it for Blg Blz to plck. lt’s a good idea and a tme one. Joid OFFICIAL PAPER OF EQUITY SOCIETY EXPOSES GOOD GOVERNMENT LEAGUE - Meantime it will ' be well for the farmers of North Dakota to remember that Treadwell Twichell who helped: the Minneapolis ‘Chamber of Commerce “finance the Equity suit, brought against the farmers’ grain exchange, is the “same-individual who is now vociferating in favor of an alleged “Good Govern- ment League” which recently sprung into being at Fargo, the birth being ' xattended by :the good “Dr.” Guild of the Fargo Courier-News. ‘up to date is any criterion Mr. Twichell is the kind of a “leader” the farmers ‘twho believe in Jjustice and a fair market - will ‘avoid.. }land in. politics. ; "l‘hey look w1th susplclon on men and movements which are {<!fostered by interests which have always been agamst their organizations. -!
