Meanwhile. her caller, determined t.

room. though it was not until she stood
beside her that she attracted Miriam's
attention. For a moment Miriam glared
hard at her; she could not believe her
own eyes; then, suddenly rising to her
feet, she cried half-joyfully, half-re-
gretfully:

Integrity of character should be one of the

the sufrages Of the people as their choice for
Treasurer Of the county. and in this particular

when it nominated Harry W. Dilworth of

years ago, and is a son of the late Robert Dill
worth, who was well-known farmer and who
had been resident of the county all his life.
Mr.. Dilworth cast bis first vote for the Repub-

party ever since. 1t was only at the earnest
solicitation of his friends and neighbors, whom
he numbers by hundreds, that he accepted the

INCREASING THE WHEAT YIELD.

The average wheat crop for the whole United
States for ten years to 1908 was 1878 bushels
per acre; for five years to 1908, for Minnesota,
1885; for North Dakota 1905 for South Da-
kota, 12.14. In Minnesota steadily increas-
ing and substantial improvement in yield per
acre has been made through the adoption of
crop rotation and the use of better seed. Di-
viding the time from 1882 to 1906 into FIVE
year periods gives the following average yields
for quarter of century: 1926, 1872;
1SS7-91, 1876; 1s92-96 1913; 1897-O1, 1877 );
1925, 140.
Thus in period of twenty five years the
average yield per acre in Minnesota has been
increased 1.S bushels, or. based on the acreage
seeded to wheat in 1908 by over nine and one
half million bushels, an increase of over IA
per cent.
When we compare the average wheat yield
of the United States for the last ten years of
1878 bushels per acre with the average yield
in England during the same period of 81 .13
bushels per acre, the average yield in France
of over 20 bushels and in Germany of % to 80
bushels, we at once see the stupendous posi-
bilities of increase in the worlds production
of wheat through proper methods of husband
ry. An increase of only five bushels an acre
in the yield of the United States alone would
amount to about 23S, 100000 bushels.-From

p1NoHoT-BALL1NeER CONTROVERSY.

The controversy now raging among certain
officials of the government at Washington
concerning the determination of the forests
and the existence or non existence of gigantic
scheme to control the water-power sites is at
once interesting and amusing. 1t does not help
matters much when they virtually call each
other hard names, except that the atten-
ton of the public is thereby called sharply to
this vital subject, but it is evident from the
statements issued by the belligerents, as is to
be expected, that Mr.. Clifford Pinchot and his
assistant foresters have the facts and figures at
their finger tips and it will be surprising if
they cannot come out on top with their con-
tentions proven.
One of the opponents of the forest service
thinks that we have plenty of forests to sup
ply the country with all the lumber needed for
that the lumberman should be allowed to cut
the timber on government reserves freely, for
he mightas well get the benefit and the con-
sumner might as we'll have more lumber instead
of allowing it to be destroyed by fire. He
forgets, however or does not know, that the
average lumberman who is seeking only his
own immediate profit is often himself respon-
sible for the destruction of valuable timber or
young trees, because he leaves great heaps Of
brush lying in the woods to serve as fuel for
the fire started by the reckless smoker or
camper, or by the spark from the railroad loco
motive.
As to the suggested great power trust, there
is no convincing evidence yet at hand to show
that the peril is imminent, but the argument
that the idea is preposterous does not carry
much weight. Many things quite as great
have been done in this country, and with the
deeds and discoveries of our own day to con-
slider it is dangerous to say anything is i'm
possible.
So let the merry war continue. twill afford
some enlightenment and some fun for many
weary day.
