"A Liberal Offer.

The Northwestern newspaper which is
conceded the largest circulation is the
Minneapolis Tribune. AS an all round
purveyor Of information and entertaining
reading its popularity is the best proof of
its ascendency.
What the Daily Tribune is to the citv
people the Twice Week edition of the
same publication, the Farmers Tribune.
is to that great majority of the people of
the state who are too busy to read a
daily paper.
The Twice-a-Week Farmers Tribune.
is, to all intents and purposes, the farm
er's daily. 1t is a condensation of the
news for the three days preceding the
date OF publication and it contains the
very latest news up to the hour of going
to press.
The Farmers Tribune does not pre.
sumo to take the place Of the home
weekly but it supplies the place lust
outside of the sphere of the home paper.
and in this capacity it is Of the highest
value to a large majority Of the people Of
the northwest.
The Bismarck Tribune has made ar
rangements with the publishers of The
Farmers Weekly whereby it is enabled
to make the most liberal and astonishing
offer we made.
Ii you are now a subscriber for the
Tribune we will send you The Farmers
Tribune twice-a-week) with your paid
i%n-advance renewal Of subscription to
the paper. You thus get the two 3

could be offered.
The same offer is also extended to new

opportunity slip by. Send in your aub.

Horse Collars.

Every work horse should have his
own collar, and not change them shout,
as some farmers do or allow the men
to do. We imagine you would not care
to put on and wear an i'll fitting pair Of
boots every few days. An i'll fitting
collar is often the prime cause Of
horses being balky. There Is no ques-
ton but that a properly adjusted collar
and harness enable a horse to perform

ease than a poor Observation-Disclosures.

PLANT BREEDING,
improvement of Fruits by Careful
Bud Selection.

Improvement OF Fruit. by Careful
Bud Selection.
A subject familiar to florists, but
scarcely so to the general public, is
called up for consideration by A. S.
Hitchcock Of the Kansas station, who
states his ideas Of plant breeding by
selection thus:
All plants are made up Of a success
sion or colony Of shoots originating in
buds. These shoots show as much
tendency to vary as do seedlings. The
degree Of variation is not usually as
great, since the latter unite the quail
ties Of two parents, while the former
are the product Of II parent. Never
thcless sudden and marked bud varia-
tons are not uncommon. AS a matter
Of fact, many of our cultivated varie-
ties have originated from bud sports.
The ncctarine came from q branch Of
the peach.
In plants like tho apple, which are
widely dispersed by means Of graftage,
there is more or less departure from
the original type. The Newtown Pip
pin, which originated in Long Island,
has varied in Virginia into the Abe
marie P1ppin, a poorer keo. II than the
original. In the northwest it has va
ried into a form which has five ridges
ut the apex, while in Australia it is so
different as to have been renamed the
Five Crowned Pippin.
Florists and horticulturists are con-
stantly on the watch for sporting
shoots. When the sport is desirable, it
is fixed by vegetative propagation.
Many forms with cut leaves, variegat-
ed foliage, weeping habit, double flow
ers, flowers Of different color from
type and others have been produced in
this way. Bud variation is a fact we'll
recognized among horticulturists, es-
pecially florists and growers of orna-
mental shrubs and trees. 1 wish espe-
cially, however, to call attention to the
good results following bud selection in
ordinary propagation.
While a sudden and marked varia-
ton from the type usually called sport
is an exception, yet slight though rec
ognizable variation among shoots on
q tree is the rule, and these variations
tend to perpetuate themselves, though
they sometimes revert, as do seedlings.
Our orchard fruits would be improved
more rapidly if there were more care
used in selecting the scions, buds or
cuttings from those individuals which
have proved themselves to be in ad.
n Of the average. Not only should
buds be selected from proper individ'
uals, but even from q particular
branch. Small fruits can be easily i'm.
proved in this way.
The common practice Of blowing up
or digging up at random the young
plants from a strawberry bed is not
conducive to improvement of the va,
rieties. The most successful growers
are learning that it pays to select from
the best individuals each generation
In fact, it is advisable to keep q patel
on purpose for breeding. Of course Q
grower cannot take time to select in
dividual plants for customers, but he
can select his breeding plants eacl
year from the best plants of the pre-
ceding year and thus gradually i'm
prove his breeding plants and through
them the general crop.

Breaking Down Corn stubble.

DFVHAIHS DOVn CUFm
Concerning the thrashing down OF
corn stubble in fields that are to
be planted in oats an Ohio Farmer
correspondent advises that the work
be done when the ground is frozen
hard, with an inch or less snow on.
Get a straight pole about SO feet long
and about i inches in diameter at the
smallest end. This will reach across
eight or nine rows. Cut two notches
around it about eight feet apart. Cut
the notches nearer the butt than the
top Of the pole, as it is larger and heav-
Ter at that end, and then fasten q log
chain around it in each notch and bring
the ends together and fasten to the
