Chicken Thieves.

Owls are chicken thieves that come
in the night and are much dreaded by
farmers. The remedy is simple. Have
an owl proof house for the fowls to
'roost in, and the owl question is set
tied. In the case Of hawks it is
quite different. A good protection
against hawks is small piles Of brush
which will afford place Of refuge
when the hawk appears. Chickens will
instinctively dart into such places IL
they see only the shadow of Mr.. Hawk
moving over the ground. A good shot
gun in the hands of an expert is also a
good protection against hawks and 9TH
er chicken thieves.-Farm and Ranch.

The farm is about five miles north of
st. Charles, and its contiguitv to Sagi-

business interest of the city. Large
quantities of supplies will be consumed
and they will be largely purchased here.
Miscellaneous crops and beets will be
cultivated, and good deal of attention
is to be given to stock raising.

IMMENSE DEAL IN REAL ESTATE.
Greatest Transaction In Local History
Since the Indians Sold Out to Uncle
Sam

Sam.
From the Saginaw Courier Heard.
The papers were passed yesterday
and the deal closed in the largest
real estate transaction in the history
of Saginaw county since the Chippewa
Indians sold about all of the Saginaw
valley to the United States government
in 1919. The parties to the transaction
just closed are the Saginaw Realty Co.,
represented by E. t. Bowen, and the
Owosso Sugar company and Carmen N.
Smith, secretary of the Owosso Sugar
company, John G. Weadock, of Bay
City, the attorney for the Owosso COM
pany, and George w. Weadock for the
Saginaw people drew the papers.
The deal involves the passing to the
ownership of the Owosso company of
10000 acres of land, known as the
Prairie Farm" in the townships of
Albee, James, Spaulding and st. Char
les, Saginaw county, bordered east,
north and west by the Flint and
Shlawassee rivers.
This farm was formerly owned by
II. p. Smith, later by Camp, Brooks &
Co., and last by the Saginaw Realty &C.
Two Thousand acres of this farm are
under cultivation. The farm is what is
known as mostly bottom land, forming
sort of peninsula, the streams referred
to draining it. There is in the tract
!, 200 acres of timber and the remainder
bottom land, the soil being an alluvial
deposit with deep white clay subsoil.
the same as is found in the valley of the
Nile in Egypt. 1t is wonderfully pro-
ductive, having been formed by ages of
inundation, the receeding waters an
nually leaving after the spring freshet
large deposit of vegetable and mineral
substance Prof. Smith of the U. s.
government experimental station, is
authority for the statement that this
farm may be cropped by rotation of
crops SO consecutive years without the
necessity of adding a fertilizer.
The plans of the purchasing company
include % miles of dyke around the
farm, with hydraulic pumps for keeping
down the water during the freshet
season, and one hundred miles of lateral
drains will be built. The company is
to erect $50 housesto be occupied by the
people who are to be employed on the
farm, it being calculated that ultimate
lys 1000 will be employed. 1t will re-
quire two OF three years time to COM
plete the plans of improvement already
laid out 1t is intended to raise 1900
acres of sugar beets on the farm this
year, and this will be increased as fast
as possible. The farm will be reached
by the Michigan Central and Grand
Trunk railroads, and every facility for
handling the products will be provided

A great many farmers fail TO keep an
accurate account of the cost of produc-
ing crop and therefore can only jump
at conclusions at the end of the season
1t is safe to say, however, that the sugar
beet has made more money for farmers,
as rule, in this section than any other
crop the farmer raises.

NORTH AND SOUTH READ.
Promoters Make Proposition to
Hutchinson 1t Is Accepted.
From SATURDAYS Daily.

The Hutchinson Independent-Time
has the following to say of the proposed
north and south road: "Last Friday
noon G. H. Mackenzie secretary of the
Minnesota Central Railway company,
and H. B. Cady, who is also connected
with the organization, arrived here for
the purpose of consulting with our busi-
ness men regarding that line. As stat
ed last week in these columns, the road
is surveyed and right of way secured
from Nicollet to New Auburn, and they
are now looking matters up from the
latter place to st. Cloud. During the
afternoon they held consultation with
several members of the Improvement as
ISOLATION, talking over matters connect
ed with the proposed line.
''In the evening they met number
of our business men at the office of ).
G. Anderson Jr., and presented their
plans to them. They had no additional
news to give out regarding the proposed
road from what we gave last week IN
connection with matter of branch into
New Ulm They would like to dispose
of large block of stock here, yet did
not seem particular about this. 1t was
decided after some talk not to ask for
bonds. The disposition of the meeting
was to give cash bonus in behalf OF
the road, the same to be raised and de-
posted in one of the banks to be held un-
til the road is completed through the
city, or into st. Cloud. This was salts
factory to the gentlemen representing
the proposed railway. Carl Sshallinger,
W. E. Harrington, E. j. Stearns and l.. A.
Ritter We're appointed committee TO
secure subscriptions for the same.
"There has been so much said about
the north and south road during the past
few years and nothing come from IT,
that many of our business men are some
what skeptical about one being built,
yet they recognize the value of such a
line to Hutchinson, and if they thought
that it would go through, would be will
ing to aid it literally. The men who are
back of it would seem to indicate that
this was move that might prove more
substantial than numerous other moves
that have been made in the past. At any
rate it would seem as though an effort
should be made to raise the money. q.
