ATHOUSAND BUSHELS
Successful Corn Raising in Norman
County, Mimi.

County, Mimi.
Red River Valley Farm Journal.
@. O. G.. johnson, one of the early set
tiers Of the Red River valley, who lives
six miles east from Perley in Norman
county, and who has been placing his de-
pendence in wheat for the past twelve
years, is one of the most extensive corn
raisers in that vicinity.
During the past year he raised forty
five acres from which he harvested more
than 1000 bushels of ears, about SO per
cent of which is good merchantable' grain,
and the rest is sufficiently matured to
make good feed for cattle and hogs.
The large percentage of immature corn
was due in part TO the fact that part
of the seed used was of the variety known
as the Queen of North Dakota, and 1t did
not prove sufficiently early to escape the
frost.
He also planted three other kinds, King
Phillip, the Pride Of the Northwest and a
variety of dent which was brought up from
Iowa and has been thoroughly acclimated
here by five or six years successive Gull
tivation.
This corn he finds to be the easiest and
most satisfactory of the four varieties
named, but the Pride Of the Northwest
and the King Phillip both ripened salts
factory crop.
Mr.. Johnson Is now turning his attention
more fully toward stock raising and dairy
ing, and is one Of the leading promoters
Of project for a creamery at Perley.

RED RIVER CORN
What Chicago Papers Correspon-
dent Saw.

dent Saw.
A field correspondent of the Live Stock
World, published in Chicago, says:
Minnesota is proud of it's live stock
census and elate over the fact that it is
now in the corn belt Once wheat grow
ing state, necessity forced her farmers
into dairying. Through the milk pail they
emerged from hardships to comparative
af1uence earning the title, 'fbread and
butter state" for Minnesota. But King
Corn has crossed the Iowa line and es-
tablished his northern outposts in the Red
River valley. In the fat lands Of south
ern Minnesota he rules supreme. King
wheat has been dethroned; his camp fol-
lowers, the deadly cinch bug, having hast
ened his downfall. With corn have come
the beef steer and the hog, wealth pro-
ducers and fertility restorers. So unpop-
ular is wheat in southern Minnesota to-
day that "Don't-raise- wheat-clubs' are
being organized, farmers signing mutual
agreement not to plant that cereal. Grass
and corn are to be the staple crops here
after and the stock car will supersede the
wheat elevator.
Twenty years ago the hog was novelty
in Minnesota and a man who ventured the
prediction that it would ever be a corn
state invited criticism as to his sanity.
Yet the summer of 1901 saw corn mature
IN kittson county within sight Of the
Manitoba line and Minnesota gathered a
record breaking crop of the cereal.

TURNIPS AND GLOVER
How a Michigan Farmer Combines
Them.

How a Michigan Farmer Combines
Them.
In communication to the Michigan
Farmer, S. A. Grow tells of unique sys-
tenn he practices successfully in seeding
clover. He says in regard to it: i.
II have seldom failed to get seeding
of clover, and claim the reason is that
| sow some kind Of turnips with the clover
seed. | lave seeded with both oats and
wheat in the spring and have had sue
cess by sewing from one-half to one pound
Of turnip seed per acre a the same time
The turnips do not grow much until the
oats or wheat is taken off, when the leaves
commemorate spread and shade the ground
You can either turn into the clover and
turnips late in the fall, Or gather some
Of the turnips. or leave them to enrich
the soil at will.
''In conversation with man who lives
near Greenville he complained to me that
he could not get seeding of clover, and
l told him Of my method and asked him
to try it.. I advised him to fit piece
Of ground good, as for a crop, and some
time between June Is and July Is to sow
his clover seed and one pound of turnip
seed per, acre. and see what that would
do, as hai had success by that method
81 met this man recently and he told
me that as a result Of my advice he got
two of the greatest crops ofFclover he
had ever raised, and that the seeding was
the best he had ever seen. He harvested
some Of the turnips and had load on the
wagon at the time I was talking with
him. He said he had sold $10O worth from
the eight acres seeded as I advised, and
that he would not take another 500 for
the seeding IS
When I seed in wheat after this plan
! drag In the seed, thoroughly, and have
not failed in getting seeding for num-
Der of years. There have been plenty Of
failures in clover seeding in this county,
but have known of none where the

other rivers, are famous for their brook
trout. The king fish of these northern
waters, however, is the maskalonge, which
sometimes attains a weight Of seventy
pounds, and when hooked, fights for life
with every ounce Of his weight and every
atom Of his strength, making the man
who Is at the other end Of the line work
like Trojan to land hts fish. Gigantic
wall-eyed trout, wicked bass, gamey pick
erel toothsome white fish and lake trout
are among the other hnny Inhabitants Of
these northern waters.
These northern lakes and rivers are
beautiful beyond compare. They are great
and small. There is Lake Superior it
self, the most magnificent body Of fresh
water in all the world; there is Red Lake,
over 400 square miles; Lake Of the Woods,
still larger; Cass, Winnibogoshis, Leech
Lake, Vermilion Lake, Mile Laos, Rainy
Lake, and thousands Of Others Many of
them have high and rocky shores, pic
turesque headlands and innumerable
islands, afrording the most delightful
places in the world for long cruises in
canoes or sail boats. Lake of the Woods
has 1900 islands and Rainy Lake as
many more. For the lover Of nature, the
devotee Of camps, there is no better place
in the world than these northern wilder
nesses. Steamers on all Of these lakes
and some of their tributary lakes and
rivers, connecting with railways, make it
possible to penetrate to the very heart
of the wild lake country.
When ell these things are considered it
is not wonderful that it has become quite
the fashion for even poor men to buy a
piece of land in the wooded wilderness
to keep as "a hunting and fishing head
quarters. Some associations are buying
up considerable tracts Of the cheapest
lands to use for game preserves. Gov
ernor Herreid of South Dakota and some
of his friends have just bought hunt
ing and fishing site on Bow String lake.
But with the 10000 square miles Of state
aud government lands in Minnesota to
say nothing Of those in northern Wiscon-
sin, this will long remain the poor mans
hunting and fishing country.

BIG MONEY IN PORK RAISING

Red River Valley Farm Journal
W. A. Sorsolell of st. IIilaire. of whose
prosperous farming the Journal made mention
a few weeks since, reports an instance OF
profit in pork raising which is worth publica-
ton In December, 1900, ne bought a young
Chester White sow, for: which he paid S.
The following March this sow presented
him with a litter of eleven pigs, ten of which
he sold when of proper age for 81 each maxi
ing $40. On the 18th of July the SOW had a
second litter OF pigs, seven in number, which
were allowed to run at large and were fur
nished no feed until one month before they
were butchered, and they dressed on an aver
age eighty-fve pounds each.
The sow was also killed, and weighed 375
pounds when dressed. Mr.. Sorsolel1 then dis
posed of the pork at cents pound and
figured up the proceeds as follows:
10 pigs sold in April $40. 90
i pig retained at same price. ............. 200
pigs, sos pounds pork at 7c............ H.6o
$40 pounds (the mother) at 70 ........... 1925
Taking out the amount of the original in
yestment ($6), there is $50. 90 left to cover the
value of the feed and furnish margin Of
profit. Can any one beat this reoordf

BRAN MORE VALUABLE THAN

The Michigan Farmer contains the fol-
lowing statements concerning the value OF
wheat and also Of oats for feeding purposes
as compared With bran.
ssAt IS cents per bushel a ton of wheat
would be worth $500. Wheat contains 90
per cent dgestible protein, and where we
have plenty of carbohydrates in the ration
anyway, a Lon of wheat would be worth only
1876 of a ton of bran for feeding purposes.
Oats at 4S cents per bushel woulG be worth
$50 per ton. Oats contain 81 digestible pro-
TEN and therefore ton of oats would only
be worth ~ of a ton Of bran. Besides this
both the wheat and oats must be ground
costing about, If not fully, So per ton for
the grinding. Surely when we can buy bran
even at the exorbftant price Of $23 per ton
we cannot afford to feed wheat or oats at
these prices. -

NO FUSION WANTED.

An Oregon paper. The Dalies Times- Mountaineer is opposed to fusious and uses this pointed and sensible language:
 If there is nothing in Democracy itself to draw people to it: if the principles it advocates are not sufficient to commend themselves to voters without forming coalitions with a faction of the oposition party. then the Party deserves defeat.
 That applies to political fusions gen. erally. and is peculiarly applicable to the Democratic Party. It Is either party of principle Or it Is not. If the former. then the Party should adhere to those principles and not to abandon or ignore them in order to obtain the doubtful as- sistanee of so-called political parties or factions which have nothing in common with Democracy. If our Party decides to put all questions of principle out of con- sideration and only go in for success ur- der any name or any policy. 1t should abandon the name and adopt something that will fit its new shape.
 The Democratic Party has tried fusion. actual or virtual. in two national cam paigns. and it has neither achieved success nor preserved its self-respect. nor can it do so in the future. An alliance of vari- ous and discordant odds and ends into one organization for the purpose of ob- tainins office sometimes succeeds in that object. but succeeds at the expense of principle and the loss of prestige The Democratic Party stands a fair chance for success in 1904, but not by getting itself made part of an organization with. out any settled or well-defned Democratic principles. or any principles at all. fol that matter.
