The crop of field beans will be much
freer from damage by the weevil If
the planting is delayed until after the

land that has been producing heavy

Judged on the basis Of crop produc.
ton, it is questionable if there is any
section of the country that is more fer,
tile than the celebrated Imperial valley
in southern California. Authentic re,
ports tell of nine cuttings OF alfalfa In
a single season, averaging thirteen tons
TO the acre. One alfalfa ranch of thirty
five acres is cited ION which were kept
thirty-five dairy cows which produced
lS5 tons of hay and during the sum,

A few weeks ago eight carloads of
potatoes from Scotland were received

Crop rotation has even more to com.
mend it from the standpoint of good to
the crop than rest and change for the
soil. Many of the fungous pests which
affect plant life, including the several
types of rust, smut and scab, are quite
effectually kept In check by putting a
different crop on the land year after
year. If this simple fact were kept
more often in mind it would save both
loss and disappointment

Week to Organize an
Association.

Directors of the Y. NJ. c. A. in
Grand Forks are cvincing much inter.
est In home baseball this year and a
meeting for the purpose of organizing
a Commercial league will probably be
called some time this week.
1t is proposed to have at least six
and possibly eight teams in the league
this season and to play twilight
game each evening except Sunday.
The Y. NJ. G. A. men who are inter-
esting themselves in the proposed
Commercial league say they have in
terviewed the heads of a number of
the leading business houses in the city
and that support is assured the boys
in these institutions who want to get
out on the diamond this summer and
put up a clean exhibition of the ma
tional pastime.
Secretary Wallace of the "Y" is an
enthusiastic baseball man and he is
more than anxious to see the home
association formed. He has been i'll
for a week. and as soon as he has suf-
ficiently recovered to attend the gath
ering. the meeting for the purpose of
organizing the league will be held,
with Secretary Wallace in the chair.
Among the institutions that will
probably be represented on the local
diamond by baseball teams this sea-
rany. the International Harvester
company. the Times Herald. the On
tario store, the East Grand Forks
Commercial team. the Y. NJ. c. A.,
Nash Bros. Renner & Begg and the
Great Northern.
The boys who are organizing the
teams mentioned have expressed a de-
sire to form a home league. These in
stitntions will all be represented at the
meeting. it Is expected.
