The Pennington News has a pc
culiar way of twisting things to
make them appear different. The
Times said that an effort was made
at the last meeting of the Hospital
board to increase the salary of
Secretary Tomlinson, but that Mr..
Cahoon objected on the ground
that the salary was sufficient. The
News took umbrage at this and
said that no effort was made to in .
crease the salary, but in the same
breath said ill effort was made to
restore it to what it was when
held by a Democrat" that the
former secretary received 500 a
month, the same that the present
secretary receives, and $50 for an
assistant. This $50, we under
stand from the News statement,
Mr.. Tomlinson wanted added to
his salary, which certainly meant
an increase. If the duties of the
secretary are so onerous that he is
in danger of impairing his health
in performing them, why didn't he
ask for an assistant That would
have made an opening for another
Republican looking for a berth.
The Office of assistant secretary, to
which the News refers, was created
by a former board to which neither
of the two present Democratic
members belonged, and hence they
could not have voted for it, as the
News iptimates. The principal du-
ties of this assistant was to attend

PRINCIPLES OF DRY FARMING
Success Depends Upon Accumulation

! Although dry farming has been
brought TO the attention of the gen
eral public for only few years, yet
It is a fact that there are many farm.

years. Between these old pioneers OF

GERMANY AND
CANADIAN WHEAT
LOOKS TO THE CANADIAN WEST
FOR HER SUPPLY.

A dispatch from Winnipeg. Manito-
ba, dated March IS, 1910 says: That
Germany is anxious to secure share
Of Canadian wheat to supply her i'm
ports of that cereal." The recent ad.
justment of the trade relations with
Germany has made 1t possible to carry
on Canadian-German trade with
much fewer restrictions than in the
past, and considerable development
of trade between the two Countries.
is now certain. The great men OF
the United States are alive to the
Wheat situation in this Country now,
and there Is consequently the deepest
interest In every feature that will
tend to increase and conserve the
wheat supply. With its present $780,
100000 bushel production of wheat
and all efforts to increase it almost
unavailing, and the rapidly growing
consumption of its increasing popula-
tion, there is certainly the greatest
reason for the anxiety as to where the
wheat is to come from that will feed
the nation. The United States will
be forced as Germany Is to look to
the Wheatfields of Canada. One
province alone raised last year one
eighth as much as the entire produc-
ton Of the United States. and but a
twelfth of the wheat area has yet been
touched. The Americans who have
gone to Canada, are to-day reaping
the benefit of the demand for Canadi-
an wheat and they will continue to
join in the benefits thus reached for
a great many years. Splendid yields
are reported from the farms of that
Country, and from land that the Gov
ernment gives away in 160 acre
blocks, and from other lands that
have been purchased at from s12 to
SIS an acre. John Munter, near Eye.

dent of Minnesota says:

It; also 20 acres spring breaking on

20 bushels per acre. Had 20 acres
in oats and got 70 bushels per acre
and 500 bushels potatoes on one and
three quarter acre, and can therefore
safely say that had fine crop and

He is considered but small farmer,
but he will be one of the big farmers,
some of these days. There are many
others, hundreds of others, whose
yields were beyond this, and whose
average under crop was vastly
greater. The story of the experience
of American farmers in the Canadian
West is long one. The time to go,
would appear to be now, when splen-
did selections may be made, and
where land can be purchased at prices
that will be doubled in a couple Of
years.

Rape for Pics.

Pigs will live and grow on rape
without supplement of grain. but a
small addition of the latter is profita,

on rape alone.
1t is estimated that growing pigs
placed on rape at about 25 TO the
acre will for two or three months re,
quire only half as much grain as sty'
fed animals.
The growing and harvesting of rape
for seed is an industry worthy OF at
