ENDORSES RINGDAI.

Wilmar Tribune: The expected hap
pened. Two-thirds Of the voters who
called for republican ballots at the
primary were opposed to Eberhart,
but their division among five candi-
dates rendered their protest futile.
Young's coming into the game spoiled
the excellent chance that Lee had of
securing the nomination.. The fight
will now be between Eberhart and
Ringdal for the fall election, with
Lobeck, Collins and Morgan struggl-
ing to pick up scattering vote. It is
very fortunate that in this crisis, the
democratic party should have placed
man at the head of it's state ticket
of such. eminent ability and fitness for
great executive office as possessed
by Hon. Peter M. Ringdal: He is a
man that the truly progressive voter
Of any party may make as their ch9ice
without going far wrong. He is in
no sense bourbon democrat, but one
who embraced the principles Of the
peoples party and since the days Of
Gov. Lind's administration has con-
sistently used his influence for better
things within the Bryan democracy.
Progressive republicans can well af'
ford to join with the progressive
democrats and elect Ringdal governor
Of Minnesota. It is their only chance
to break up the machine that floored
them in the late primary. The Collin g
candidacy presents no hope, and if
take seriously by any member Of
voters will lead to the same result that
gladdens the "interests over the late
contest.

spent weeks Of time going up and
down the state denouncing Gov. Eber-
hart in the most scathing terms, the
three first named charging him with
being plant tool Of the breweries
and corporations and the latter as a
profigate spendthrift Of the people $

SOMEWHAT INCONSISTENT

San Francisco Star: Among The more
astounding discrepancies Of the Roose-
veltian confession of faith and plat
form are those which advocate the
legalizing of our greater trusts. If
the nation licenses monopolies, how
much faster we shall move towards the
complete capture Of private business
by enormous corporations! The in
fnitely dangerous bearings of this
doctrine have not yet attracted much
public discussion, but we heard plain

HITTING HARD

Commoner: Governor Wilson deliver
ed a telling blow to Roosevelt 3
preposterous claim to leadership Of the
real progressive thought Of the coun-
try when, at Sioux City, he showed
that the Roosevelt plan for "regulat-
ing' trusts, instead Of preventing
them originated with Gary and Per-
kins. These gentlemen are not inter-
ested in the people and they are not
planning for the people. The interests
of Gary and Perkins are wrapped up
in trusts and Mr.. Roosevelt is their
agent to carry out their plan.
Governor Wilson is also right in op-
posing the tariff board as "a motion
for a continuance This existing
board has already been used by the
president as an excuse for delay and
this excuse has cost the country sew
eral hundred millions. The tariff
board, however, honestly intended by
some, is farce and a froud. After
postponing action until the board re-
ported the republicans would not &C.
cept any findings that justified reduc-
tions and the democrats would not
accept any findings that justified ex-
isiting rates. Congress and congress
alone can settle the tariff question.

CURING NECESSARY
Seed Corn Must be Well Dried if High
termination is Secured

As a result Of the interest aroused
in the state regarding the, selection Of
seed corn during Seed Corn Week,
many thousands of bushels of seed
corn were picked. This ought to help
materially in securing maturity and
in raising the yield Of corn in Mime
sofa next year.
In order to obtain satisfactory re-
suits when this seed is planted, how
ever, it will be necessary to cure the
corn we'll this fall before the freezing
weather comes. Otherwise the mois-
ture stored up in the ear, no matter
how dry it may appear to be, will not
be removed in time and the germinat-
ing power Of the seed will be injured.
In fact, the curing Of seed corn is as
essential as its maturity and selection.
There are several practical ways Of
curing seed corn. Big seed corn deal
ers often have large kilns where they
dry their corn with artificial heat.
This practice is not economical for
the average farmer, however, and
simpler methods must be employed.
Who is there who will forget the long
strings Of corn that used to hang in
grandfather garret, where SO many
happy days were spent in playe This
old-fashioned method of curing corn
is still a good one, if the windows are
opened wide during the good days to
let air circulate in the room, thus dry
ing the seed.
A corn tree made of an upright
4x4 set on standard and in which
are driven teqpenny casing nails up
on which the ears are impaled is an
other good method Of curing seed corn
i The corn tree may be placed in the
! garret, or any other out-of-wav place
in the house or shed. Seed corn may
i also be cured by placing it on racks
or by scattering it about thin1y on a
floor in a dry place where the mice
! or rats will not bother it. There are
; many different farm methods of stor
j ing corn, all of which are good. The
thing which must be impressed, how
; ever, is the fact that corn should be
: cured we'll. No matter what the method
! is employed good air circulation must
! be secured. It is an indispensable nee
eSsity, if high terminating power il
: the seed is aimed at.-Ray P. Speer

SECOND CHOICE BALLOT

Wheelock's 5 Weekly: The assertion
that the second choice provision Of the
primary law "is a failure,' because
most voters did not use it, and some
judges got mixed up in their count,
calls to mind the "Australian ballot'
when first tested in this state. There
were great mix-ups, and every gangster
and monopoly newspaper said the new
tangled, secret ballot was a failure
and must be repealed at once. We are
still using it pretty successfully. Just
so, the second choice provision must
be practiced a few elections before it
will produce the good effects expected
from it.
