Twenty years ago North Dakota farm CTS were so devoted to grain farming that many of them did not even pro- duce their own butter, eggs and various garden vegetables. Through the ef- forts of J. J. Hill of the Great North ern railroad they were gradually led to diversity their farm crops and raise the stuff they needed for their own consumption, with the result that to- day the state produces as diversified crops as any other.

In view of the fact that bushel of seed corn of average sized kernels will plant eight acres, tbe great value and importance of good seed corn and the corresponding worthlessness of that which is poor ought to be ob- served at glance. It is well to keep this situation in mind when the time comes for selecting the seed this fall. The earliest maturing as well as the most perfect ears should be secured by Oct 15, which will give time in which to get them thoroughly dried out before the heavy freezes of early winter come on. If the job is left un- til husking time it involves q specula- ton that one is not justified in indulg- ing in.

4 Connecticut farmer in giving his experience with alfalfa states that during period of three years he has secured a total yield of forty-seven tons Of this valuable hay off a three md a half acre tract of land. It will be a fortunate thing for the whole country if a type of alfalfa can be dis covered which will do well not only in the warmer, semiarid sections of the country. but in the more moist and colder portions of the northern states. Where introduced it becomes the badge of a rejuvenated soil fertility and of an all around agricultural prosperity.

Honesty is not only the best policy, but many times has a value in dol lars and cents. The man who has es- tablished a reputation for square deal ing and goods that are right is bound to have plenty of buyers at the high est market price for any produce he may happen to have, while the fellow whose measures are known to be short and who puts nice fruit on the top of the basket and runty stuff in the middle not only has a hard time in finding buyers, but will have to take lower price because of his shady methods.

There are many western orcbardists who lose large per cent of the value of their apple crops through failure to make an economical disposal of the byproducts or unmarketable fruit. The evaporation, the cider outfit and drove of hogs to run in the orchard at in- tervals and pick up the wormy wind falls are means that every large ap- pie grower should have at his dis posal.

Unless the boy and girl have an en- dowment of good horse sense there Is mighty little use in sending them away to an agricultural college or a domes- tic science school to put on the finish ing touches. We know of a chap who after he had taken a course in the state agricultural school decided he would begin farming on q small scale by building stone wall around hls farm. job that would have taken him the rest of his natural life, and go into the poultry business i'll modest way with 1.500 hens. He was probably first cousin of the girl who after she had taken a course in domestic sci ence and had become expert in all of the culinary frills thought 1t was i'm possible to make ice cream unless the ice was cracked up In a burlap bag. However, technical education con- bined with common sense and some practical experience is a combination which Is hard to beat.
