BOLGIANO'S
RE-CLEANED COW PEAS

Sow them for hay crops-for forage
crops-on vacant land. Put Cow Peas
in every available piece Of land you
have. They will wonderfully increase
the value and productiveness Of your
farm. We strongly recommend the
sowing of Mixed Cow Peas. They are
composed Of Blacks, Whip-poor-wills.
Clays, &C. The upright growing varic-
ties will hold up the vining varieties and
will produce much better crops of vines
and larger amount of forage.
j. Bolgiano & Son, Baltic, Nd
The Agricultural Department at Wash
ington referred me to you for Alfalfa,
Cow Peas and Irish CDbbler Potatoes.
T.. L. Duychinck, Cecil Co., Md
We are headquarters for COW peas. If
your merchant can't supply you with
Bolgiano's Recleaned Cow Peas write to
us. We will tell you where You can get
them.

HOW PEARY FOUND NORTH POLE
hepd Explorer Tells About His Successful Dash to the
APEX of the world

hard to force the Roosevelt a good dk
tance to the west Of Cape Sheridan.
but the ice baffled him For one res-
son or another on the edge OF the arc.
tic winter last year he did not or could
not take his vessel along the northern
coast OF Grant Land 10 the west of Cane
Sheridan, and so II spent last winter
not so far from its old berth IN the
ice In the winter OF 1866.
The sledge expedition left the Roose-
welt on February Is. while 1t was
still practically dark in that latitude.
The sun scarcely begins to peer above
the hills for a few minutes a day.
eSth several hundred miles 10 the
south OF the coast where the Roose-
welt was wintering Il comes into
view a little later in that more north.
ern latitude and the party made slow
time to the west as II felt its way
along.
The northern Grant Land coast is
hkely {" be exceedingly difficult to
traverse. especially in the early spring
on account of the masses of sea ice
that have been pressed on the shore
or broken into great blocks and
stranded along the sea edge.
II is no wonder that II took the par.
ty 10 days to travel westward as far
as Cape Columbia. IL is likely. how.
ever. that Commander Peary succeed.
ed. before winter set In. in cachelng
supplies to the westward so as to ac.
ceierate a little the westward move
ment OF the sledge party before It
struck out northward over the sea.
Arriving at Cape Columbia on
March 10 the sledges turned to the
north on the sea ice. The explorer had
laid much stress upon the fact that he
intended to travel much further to the
west than on his trip in 1906. His dis.
patch shows. however, that he did
not take to the sea any farther to the
west than he did on his earlier trip.
Commander Peary says nothing in
his report of being detained by pres
sure ridges or hummocks. and IL IN
certain that he met with no impedi.
ment of this sort such as made his az.
tempt to reach the pole in 1902 a con.
tinuous and terrible struggle.
A great obstacle and the one that
undoubtedly prevented him from
reaching the pole in 1906 was the wide
water lanes or leads OF water, some
of them so long that he could not get
around them.
Peary's summary seems to show
that he was little over thirty FIVE
days on the journey from the land ia
the north pole. In this time he was
delayed about fourteen days by waite,
leads. leaving little more than three
weeks for the actual sledging work.
