The farmers Of Northern Michigan
and Wisconsin viii find many points
OF interest in the advice gwen by Snip
erintendent r. j. Delwiche Of the
northern sub.stations OF the agricul-
tural experiment department of the
University OF Wisconsin, Rs he tells
/ something of the possibilities OF this
section in an agricultural way. He
declares that the opportunities for
farmers 10 settle ON tine new and cut
over lands in Northern Michigan and
the northern part Of Wisconsin are
many and favorable He urges in
sti ong terms the advantages of this
agricultural region and ne gives points
which will assist the new farmer in
attaining success He states that
clover is the most favorable crop that
could be grown in either Northern
Wisconsin or Northern Michigan and
that every effort should be made to OBJ
tain gooG plants.
His advice is that every settler
should have at least one or two good
COWS. which may be grazed on adjoin
ing wild lands He estimates that
with proper care and feed a good COW
will give a net return to its owner Of
from $50 to $40 per year. He has also
found by his experiment that chickens
pay good returns and every farmer
should have flock. He finds that
there is good money in raising pigs
and that they thrive we'll in this sec.
ton. There is always good market
for pork and besides they furnish at
least part Of the family's meat
supply.
In Northern Wisconsin there are
three sub-stations, at Ashland, Super
Tor and Iron River. A few years ago
there were many more problems facing
the farmers Of this section than there
are at this time and ID is said that the
results obtained by the producers of
the soil are now more satisfactory than
they were formerly. superintendent
Delwitche declares that the problems
confronting farmers in new territory
are being worked out satisfactorily and
that on the whole results TO the farm
ers are very gratifying. Farmers or
others can obtain much valuable infor
nation in the bulletins giving results
with the various crops raised on both
old and new lands in the northern ter
ritory These can be obtained with ont
cost by addressing the Agricultural
Experiment Station at Madison.
In urging the advantages of the new
agricultural regions, Mr.. Delwitche
gives the following ten points. which
will assist the new farmer in attaining
success
Grow clover on Your land ii is the
best crop You can raise.
Cultivate well at least part OF
your land do not attempt TO clear too
large farm at once
Dairy cows and sheep should be
kept in every northern farm.
Grow cultivated crops. potatoes,
root crops and corn on at least one
fourth Of your land
Strawberries and garden vegetables

Improve some land every year
Do not spend too much money on

WELCOME TO SHAW.

Good for Shaw; he's on the right
side Of the street again. 1t used to
be the fashion in Iowa to assume that
Shaw was always wrong. Not so. You
cant turn over and over without at
some time being right side up.
Shaw is on the side of the people
in the matter Of the Big Bank con.
spiracy. And for reasons which need
not here be enumerated he Is in pos
sition to give the Big Bank conspri-
acy a harder jolt than any other
possessed Of resonant voice. Big
Business will sit up and take no.
tice when Shaw sounds the alarm.

sons in Iowa who will feel that If

side is crowded now. 1t has Morgan.

when called for, have in Iowa all
that bunch of politicians who, de-
splsing all Roosevelt policies, on a
notable occasion displayed badges

When Shaw leads right it is honor
to follow him. And in the Big Bank
issue NE is right. He is unalterably
opposed to placing 1t in the powe,
of any one man, or any group Of
men, official or unofficial, to expand
or contract the currency Of the
