CHICK SEASON
DOESN'T OPEN
TILLSEPT. 16
Hunters Mistaken in Belief that
They Can Take to Fields
Tomorrow
WOULD BAN ALL HUNTING
Farmers Want Wild Biddies Pro­
tected So They Can Eat
Up Hoppers
North Dakota hunters laboring un­
der the mistaken impression that the
federal game laws on prairie chicken
and ducks have been eased up and
that the season begins September 1,
are urged by the state gsme depart­
ment to watch their step, for no
change has been made in the game
regulations, and the season does not
open until September 16, as hereto­
fore. The impression has become
general for some reason 'that as a
means of relieving the shortage of
meat foods the season has been ad
anced half a month. This, states a
local game warden, is not the' fact,
and he assures prospective bird hunt­
ers that if they venture forth before
September 1G they will be violating
the law and liable t» arrest and prose­
cution. Many hunters, it is staled,
had planned to take the field with
tehir dogs tomorrow.
If farmers of central North Dako­
ta and the Slope had their way, there
would be no slaughter of prairie
chickens this year. A state official
who did some harvesting in the vicin­
ity of Kulm. and who is familiar with
conditions in Emmons county, says
that the farmers in these districts are
banding together with a view to pro­
tecting the prairie chicken as one of
the most efficient exterminators of
ferasshoppers. "One has no idea of
the extent to which grasshoppers have
damaged the crops this year until he
goes into the harvest fields," said
this official today. "Every night we
shoveled a bushel or mora of grass­
hoppers out of our header \toxes. The
prairie chickens have a Cecided fond­
ness for these pests, and the farmers
believe that if tliey are not molested
they will do a great deal to prevent
grasshoppers surviving the fall to rear
a bigger family next year."
In manj sections, farmers are post­
ing notices forbidding all hunting, and
petitions are being circulated asking
that whole townships join in protect­
ing the chicks. Prairie chickens are
unusually numerous this year, and a
general ban on lyinting them will be
a disappointment to the hunter, but
the farmers who have taken the initia­
tive contend that wheat is more essen­
tial than good shooting, and that un­
less something is done Ao check the
spread of the hoppers they will be­
come a real menace next yeSr.
THRESHINGAND
HARVESTING IN
PROGRESSAGAIN
Cars of Wheat Marketed Early
Have Lost Through Moisture
Content
The weather conditions have so im­
proved the past few days that thresh­
ing and harvesting have again started.
The heavy winds and rains of last
week probsUjly did considerable dam­
age to grain in the shock. In various
sections of the northwest grain which
had been cut was scattered about the
fields and thoroughly soaked. Cars of
wheat which had been threshed too
soon after these rains have arrived on
the market and, because of the poor
condition, have lost several grades.
We believe, however, with the /im­
proved weather, that the later thresh­
ed grains will show a good quality.
Throughout the northwest tJireshing
returns are better than at first ex­
pected—in the Red River valley some
exceptional yields of wheat, barley and
oats and rye are reported. This con
.dition prevails in many localities in
Minnesota and South Dakota.
In Montana on the irrigated lands
the yields will show a good average
and along the eastern border and the
central and southern parts of the
state where late rains have revived
the crops, averages from 10 to 12
bushels of wheat to the acre are pre­
dicted.
In a number'of districts the early
flax has been cutvanl we look for an
early movement of this. While the
temperatures have been low at various
times, we have not heard of any par­
ticular damage from frost, so that
much of the late flax may escape dam­
age from this cause. In Minnesota
and/ South Dakota there is probably
better than an average yield of flax.
The corn crop throughout the north­
west is maturing in fine shape and
will soon be out of danger: the ears
are large and the quality should bt
very high.
Many farmers who stacked their
grain are now starting their fall plow­
ing. The soil is in fgood condition,
due to recent rains, and asj. the season
is early a large amount of fall work
will be accomplished.
There is considerable complaint in
places fthe scarcity of labor, but
volunteers from the towns have been
of great assistance to the farmers.
While threshing may be slow, it "will
all probably be well taken care of.'

DR. CRANE TO
North Dakota Educator Selected
for Important Duty with
Army
WILL ORGANIZE 18 CAMPS
Because ol' his exceptional admin­
istrative ability in educational affairs,
Dr. A. G. Crane, president of the Mi
not normal, has been selected by
Surgeon General^Gorgas of the army
to organize and set in operation the
eighteen rehabilitation camps through
which the United States hopes to re­
construct its disabled soldiers and
turn them out useful citizens, ye will
rank as a major.
In order that he may take advantage
of this opportunity, the state'board of
regents has extended Dr. Crane, who
spent the last year at Columbia doing
post graduate work, an indefinite
leave of absence/ The war department
in return for this courtesy has agreed
that Dr. Crane shall have a furlough
at such times as there may oftcur the
most critical need for his services
at the Minot normal.
Dr. Crane will be directly in the ser­
vice of the division of physical recon­
struction of the department of educa­
tion. Director James E. Russell and
Col, Frank Billings of the medical sec­
tion joined with Surgeon General Gor
gas in asking the North Dakota board
that it release Dr. Crane for this work,
into which Dean Kauffman of the col­
lege of education of the University of
Minnesota also will inter.
"Dr. Crane will perform a service
of real value to his country and one
which will reflect credit on your
state," wired Surgeon General Gorgas,
in his letter to the board. Director
Russell said: "Dr. Crane is possessed
of unusual administrative ability and
he is pre-eminently equipped to ex­
cel in the service whch we have for
him."
4)r. Crane will confine his attention
to the Minot normal until the opening
of the school year, when Acting Pres.
Clarke will resume charge. The pres-
