desirable seed ears.
A soil rich in humus is the one i'm
portant factor in getting large yields.
A fine, firm seed bed is secured by
disking, then narrowing with a slant
tooth harrow. Extra time in prepar-
ing the seed bed is we'll spent, for if
the plants do not get we'll started in
the beginning their producing power
is lessened. The roots must be in
touch with soil PARTICLES at all tines
to get the plant food necessary for
building up vigorous plant. This is
difficult in poorly prepared seed bed.
The depth to plant varies with the
season and soil conditions. Under
normal conditions two and one-ha!f
inches is proper depth. Under con-
ditions of sandy, loose or drouthy soil,
plant deeper to get the seed in touch
with moisture, or so prepare the seed
bed as to cause the moisture to rise
nearer the surface. In other words,
create a dust mulch. If, on the other
hand, the soil is heavy, close or wet,
shallower planting is to be recon-
mended. And in the latter case avoid
packing the soil over the seed. In the
former case, firming the soil about the
seed is nightly Important c. P. Bull,

IN CONVENTION At LINCOLN
Hot Fight Among the Republican, Of
Nebraska.

Nebraska.
Lincoln, Neb., July 27.-Anti-county
option and standpatism were squarely
aligned against progressiveism and
county option when the Republican
state convention was called to order.
Congressman George w. Norris, re-
nowned as the man who assaulted
Cannon, was pushed into the fight by
his friends for the permanent chair
manship. Senator Norris Brown, sup
ported by the reactionaries, and Sena-
tor Burkett and National Committee
man Rosewater, opposed him. Brown
wanted to be both permanent and tenn
porary chairman. He was selected
for the latter position by the execu-
tive committee.
Victor Rosewater started fight for
a meaningless county option plank.
He also wanted endorsement of the
national administration. The progress
sives were not disposed to quarrel
with the administration, but 900 of the
800 delegates are pledged to county
option.

The Eagle Valley creamery a CO.
operative concern located in Todd
county, did a business of $12, 314 for
the month OF June, certainly very
large output for one creamery.
There was paid to patrons for butter

proven that the best paying branch Of
agriculture is the dairy business, and
this county is rapidly becoming
pros porous because our farmers are
taking up this industry in a large

did, taking care to avoid suspicion by
having the shots called as though they
were on different parts of the ten

straight to the centre of the target,
