iiaKi. Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 80.—More
I, than 1,600 licenses have been issued
to deputy inspectors under North Da
Vt i, kota's new grain grading act. Chief
.i Assistant Inspector J. A. MoGovern
announced today. Since the supreme
co«u$ hiuided down its decision up
holding the constitutionality of the
,law and clearing up a number of moot
questions, applications for licensee
from elevator men have averaged 100
to ISO the day. While there are ap
proximately 8,200 elevators in North
Dakota, Mr. McGovern does not an
ticipate that an equal number of Uc
enses will be issued, as many of these
elevators are under a general man
agement or ownership, and where two
of such elevators are located in one
town, aa often is the dtse, one deputy
can serve both.
From 25 to 80 samples, put up in
five-pound sacks, are coming in dally
from the 1917 wheat crop to be grad
ed. Hie wheat, stateB Mr. McGovern,
is grading very high, the only draw
back being the presence of such in
separable seed as wild pea, or vetch,
and klnghead. Vetch to the extent of
a fourth of one per cent lowers the
wheat grade from No. l.hard to No. 1
northern. One-half of one per cent of
vetch reduces the grade to, No. 2. Two
per cent of either seed lowers the
grade to No. 4.
"This seed can easily be removed
by the miller, and really is not greatly
detrimental to the wheat, except that
it involves some additional expense in
cleaning. The cleaning system is
simple, a spiral arrangement being
used which thoroughly separates the
weed seed from the wheat. The
method is somewhat slower than the
fanning mill plan, but I anticiate that
in time most of our elveators will be
equipped to clean this 'inseparable^
seed from the wheat. The vetch is
very valuable as stock food, being of
greater worth than the shorts with
which it is mixed. Klnghead is use
lees, but neither seed is harmful, and
a very small percentage does not color
flour nor give it. any foreign flavor.
"Because the present federal grades
for wheat, which have been adopted
in this state under the grading act,
draw the line so very fine, I am ad
vising .that North Dakota grain grow
ers sell their wheat by sample instead
of grade. Once graded, this wheat
must sell by grade, even though but
for the presence of small amounts of
this inseparable weed seed it would
sell for No. 1 hard. The farmer who
sells by sample will get a better price,
for his wheat will be bought on its
merits. The miller would buy on the
flour-making qualities of the wheat,
whereas now he buys by grade and
naturally does not care to pay a
higher price than the grade calls for.
"We are now making flour at Fargo
freftn 1917 wheat, and it is proving of
an exceptionally high quality."
ANOTHER MAN MAKES
ESCAPE FROM NORTH
DAKOTA PENITENTIARY

Cooper jSald that the state experiment

position to do ao tol plant rye for for
age purposes this fall, as it, can be
used for forage without Injuring the
returns next spring.
On the. basis of the present govern
ment estimates, Mr. Cooper said,
North Dakota has produced a total of
9,319,00$ bushels of rye this year.
This Is twice as great as thy produc
tion in 1916, he said. The rye acreage
in North Dakota has increased con
stantly in the last three years and the
fact that the {returns from rye are
nearly as great as are the returns
from wheat is a favorable answer to
the government's call for an increase

CANADA
RAISE LARGE
DRAFT ARMY
Conscription Bill Becomes
Law Ijn. Canada—to
Raise 100,000 Men.
Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 30.-—Conscrip
tion became law in Canada yesterday,
when Justice Duff of the supreme
court, acting for the governor gen
eral,-gave royal assent to the measure.
The bill is for the purpose of rais
ing 100,000 men to reinforce the
Canadian divisions 'fighting at the
front. All Canadians between 20 and
46 years may be called. They will be
divided into classes according to age,
whether married or single.
It is expected that in the near fu
ture the first class, consisting of all
unmarried Canadians between 20 and
34 years will be called, and that this
class will provide the required 100,000.
After assent had been given, Pre
mior Borden speaking in the house
of commons, asked Sir Wilfrid Laurier
to co-operate with him in naming a
board of selection to choose local
tribunals who are to deal with appli
cations for the exemption from mili
tary service.
Sir Wilfrid replied in terms that
are regarded as significant in view of
his opposition to conscription and
that of the French Canadians in
Quebec. He said he would agree to
the request of the prime minister, ad
ding: "As the bill is now law it is
the duty of all loyal subjects to see
it carried out harmoniously."

AGITATORS JAILED
IN NEW YORK FOR
ANTI-WAR TALKS
New York, Aug. 30.—In the cam
paign in this city to suppress street
speeches of a treasonable or incen
diary character, a woman speaker,
Mrs. Bertha Fraser, was today sen
tenced in a magistrate's court to pay
a fine -of fifty dollars or go to Jail for
30 days for disorderly conduct. She
was held guilty of making disrespect
ful reference to the uniform of
United States marine, the Judge de
clarlng in sentencing her:
"If this kind of speech-making is
continued the authorities must stop it
and with an Iron hand."
The only reason he did not Impose
a straight Jail sentence, he said, was
because the defendant was a woman.
Adolph Deutsch, a "soap box ora
tor," was sentenced to three months
in the workhouse for disorderly con
duct in having attacked President
Wilson in a street speech against con
scription.

Representatives Urged to
Withdraw Thirty Day
Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 80.—Officials
of North Dakota are of the belief that
the 30 day limit on storage tickets at
elevators will tend to cripfele trans
portation facilities, congest terminals
and take away protections which the
law 'intended to give the farmers.
They therefore urged' the representa
tives at Washington to ask for the
repeal of the regulation.
The following telegram signed by
Governor Frazier, Chairman Acindahl
and Commissioners Bleck and John
son of the folate railway commission,
Commissioner Hagan, Attorney Gen
eral Langer and Secretary of State
Thomas Hall, was addressed last night
to Representatives Norton, Bafer and
Young, and Senators McCumber and
Gronna, and State Food Commissioner
Ladd at Washingtonr
"Food administration license regu
lation requires elevators to give
storage facilities to no one except the
administration for more thah thirty,
days. Storage tickets governing tran
sactlons permit warehouseman to ship
grain covered by such tickets (at -end.
of thirty day period to this
terminal
market for the best price .obtiiiAftble,
If wheat is forced to terminals ih
large quantities there is grave danger
of depressing prices assuming that the
government price is a maximum, as
law seems to provide.
"Believe the thirty day storage
limitation will tend to cripple trans
portation facilities, congest terminals
and willtake away from producers sill
the protection which provisions.in the
law intended to give through exemp
tion in sebtiohs 5, 6 and 26. Do every
thing possible to have this regulation
rescinded.
Administration offers special agree
ment to elevators for' holding grain
subject to order of the department
and in consideration the administra
tion guarantees against decline in
price.
""Why not make this arrangement
with producer and not with ware
houseman who takes title to grain by
force of thirty day storage rule."

butes
Trade JNkn-Injpress|y'^^^
Chicago, Aug. 29.—Mixed sentiment
among traders Was apparent today,
and resulted in an unsettled corn
market, though, fluctuations "were
within comparatively narrow jpipits.
Houses with eastern connectlons were
prominent on the selling side and
w6rd came from, the seaboard of df
ferings of Argentine cargoes at lower'
prices. Selling on the high points
met good absorbing powers and the
finish was. well towardi top prices'for
the day. The' close was strong, 1-4
to 6-fcc higher. Oats gained 1-4 to
8-4c. Cash wheat iCloMd firm.: Prq
vlsions made gains/of from 22 to 75c.
Strength of cash corn contributed'
-firmness to the futures and buyers of
corn were further influenced.-by: the
weekly government weather amd crop
report, which ^as moderately" bullish,
containing the statement that large
areas would need favorable weather
to tyature the crop before damage is
liable from frost,'
Wheat traders eagerly awaited word
of the government fixing' wheat pric
es. The cash market was firm, but
•the volume of trading.-^as not large.
It was expected that the price set on
wheat by the government would have
aii Important bearing' on .the settle
ment figures of outstanding contracts
on the September option.'
Oats trade was not ifnpjfe'ss'ive' in
quantiy, but- the market held gener
ally. firm. Light country offerings
were a determining-factor for firm
ness. Cash values held steady.
Hog strength had a good demand
and- was controlling element which
caused .provision prices to. advance.
