LATE soWn FORAGE CROPS

The season this spring has been late,
in North Dakota as elsewhere. AZ a
result, farmers are putting in crops con-
siderably later than the usual time.
Wheat has been sown at q time when
flax could be drilled to better advan-
tage. 1t usually is a scaly proposition
to put in a crop not in due season.
Many farmers are afraid that this sea-
son will be a poor one. in spite of good
moisture. for the reasons I have stated.
I would like to suggest to farmers that
considerable emphasis be placed upon
forage crops. Oats and barley both
make pretty fair hay. These may be
sown for this purpose up to the first of
June or even a few days later.
The foxtail millet, German. Siberian
or Hungarian, make very good hay and
these may be sown up until the tenth
of June. A mixture of millet and oats
make an excellent hay for cows.
Now these forage crops look towards
a handling of livestock and this is what
Western North Dakota must interest it.
self in, livestock in conjunction with
grain raising. Hay alone does not for
a suitable basis for livestock. Some
grain is needed. This statement is
true even when alfalfa is raised. which
largely takes the place of a grain ration.
When the season becomes too far ad-
vanced to ROW the cereals for Drain,
then the broom corn millet may be sown
for grain. These usually yield well nu.
der III semi-arid conditions.
1t is presumed that every effort has
been made to secure seed corn, and
that every farmer is making a start
towards alfalfa.

The PIONEER LIFE LEADS
TOM HUGHES IS MANAGER

AS this paper has before stated, North
Dakota has a life insurance in the
Pioneer Life of Fargo which is perfectly
safe. The directors are all prominent
men of the state, like Gov. Burke and
Congressman L. B. Hanna. W. A. Scott
of Fargo is president and the manager,
Tom D. Hughes, is we'll known to many
people in this part of the state.
The old idea of the president of q life
insurance company receiving a larger
salary than the president of the United
States is not true in the case of the
Pioneer Life, neither is the president
a useless %6aurehead as is so prevalent
in eastern companies.
As a result this company has been
able to show a better record than any
other company in the United States.
Following is the statement of The
Insurance Advocate after scanning the
records: '
with the single exception of the
Pioneer Lite of Fargo. N. D.. the North
ern Assurance of Detroit, in the matter
of expenses. made the most favorable
record of all the companies contempor-
aneously organized. This is largely &C
counted for by the fact that there are
no high priced and useless officials.
The president is the most active man in
the company's service. and yet is con-
tent with a moderate salary. He gets
up at S in the morning, is on the job
all day, and will take his first vacation
