THE WORLDS GREATEST WHEAT PRIzE SIS 600.

west will turn hundreds of acres of
prairie into productive farms, making
homes for settlers, creating traffic
and new wealth.
Officers of the Northwest Develop
ment league have been considering
giving a champion sweepstakes prize
since the close of the land show"
held in st. Paul in 1911. They de-
cided early to give a farm tractor and
plows.
AS Good as Gold
The Big Four go" was selected as
the best engine; the Emerson plows
as the most desirable tools to be OBJ
tanned. By the terms offered the
league could have secured most any
tractor, but the Gas Traction com
pany's engine was selected and me-
gotiations opened for securing the
great engine. The manufacturers gem
erously offered to donate the tractor
on certain terms and their offer was
accepted
Thus the worlds greatest prize for
wheat is offered. The Big Four go"
tractor has won the gold medal two
years consecutively in the worlds ag-
rfcultural m otor competition at Win
nipeg and this had much to do with
its selection by the development
league. The outfit is considered as
desirable prize as an equivalent
amount of gold, as these automobile
work horses are revolution zing
farming all over the world.
Such tractor enables a farmer to
almost do away with horses. Break
ing and threshing are not the only
things which the Big Four "3O"
tractor will do. 1t will work in soft
ground drilling, digging, discing, har-
rowing and harvesting. II has high,
broad wheels which will work where
horses can not get foothold. They
distribute the weight of the tractor
to such an extent that he pressure
under the drivers is less per square
inch than under a horses hoof.
Full particulars will be sent on
request by addressing VIII A. Camp
bell, Security Bank Building, Min
neapolis, Mimi.

Five thousand dollars for the best
five bushels of wheat, any variety.
grown in the American Northwest is
the prize announced as the grand
champion sweepstakes to be awarded
at the Northwestern Products EXPOSE
ton to be held in Minneapolis Novem-
Der 2 to 90.
This is the worlds greatest prize
for wheat--twice as large as any
prize ever offered in Canada, five
times as much as any prize ever Of
fered for any class of grain in the
United States.
Announcement of this award has
just been made by the Northwest De-
velopment League, under the auspices
of which organization the seven states
give the products exposition. The
states included in the American
Northwest, as represented by the
league, are Minnesota, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Wash
ington and Oregon.
\ Practical Prize
The prize consists of a Big Four
go" farm tractor manufactured by
the Gas Traction company of Mime
apolis and Winnipeg and a set of
plows manufactured by the Emerson
Birmingham Pillow company of Rock
ford Ill. These companies, desiring
to encourage farmers OF the North
west to grow more and better wheat,
have given the league the outfit for
certain considerations and the seven
states will com pete for the sweep
stakes prize.
Winning this prize means that
wheat awarded prizes at seven state
fairs and scores of county fairs will
be selected by a process of elimina-
ton and finally entered at the North
western Products Exposition in the
grand champion sweepstakes class.
There will be nothing in the rules,
however, to prevent grower exhibit
ing wheat which has not been shown
at any fair, but which will be entered
for the first time to win the $4,000
prize.
Judging of the wheat will be done
by the accepted authorities on wheat
judging in the United States.
Fve-bushel samples of threshed
grain will be required and they must
be exhibited with 10 bundles from the
same field which must be from six to
10 inches in diameter. The threshed
grain will be judged, not only by its
external appearance, but a certain
part will be milled and baked into
bread, given number of points be-
ing allowed for the results in the
milling and baking tests.
The Northwest Development league
will undertake to deliver the farm
tractor and plows TO the winner free
of cost.
What Tractors Wnl DO
The Big Four go" farm tractor
and plows were selected for prize
because of their practicability. There
is no agency which Ia playing a more
i'm portant part in the development of
the Northwest than the modern farm
tractor. All over these seven states
the giant horses are cutting the broad
prairies into fertile farms. The wheat
fields are already dotted with them.

GRIMM RESIDENCE BURNED.

The residene of Mr.. and Mrs. G.
G. Grimm in the west part of town
was totally destroyed by fire abou.
eleven o'clock Saturday morning.
The house was heated by furnace,
and the fire started in some way
from the furnace and ran up between
the walls along side the flue. The
fire was frs. discovered BY Mrs.
Grimm and Mr.. Druary, who was
there at the time tuning the piano.
Mrs. Grimm Immediately telephoned
Guy at the west mill and the alarm
Of fire was sounded by the whistles
OF both the mills. A large crowd
soon gathered and the chemical en-
CINE was brought into acton, only i
failed to act, as il was froze up. The
fire seemed mostly to be between the
walls in the garrett and was hard to
get at, and the extra cold made the
fighting Of same by bucket brigade
almoS. impossible. All the furniture
was gotten out.
1t looked for awhile Ike the Stew
art house, which is occupied by JOHN
Grub would also be consumed by the
flames and everything was taken
cut Of there. and men Stationed or

and no damage was done to the
house.

cally new house, Just beng com

HORTICULTURAL
AG-aN NOTES

1t does not pay to crowd trees in
planting.
Encourage the boys to kill every
rabbit they can this winter.
The damage done by rabbits doea
not stop with the trees they girdle.
The peach and. plum are short.
lived trees. The pear and apple are
long-lived.
Grapes are still trodden under the
bare feet in many Of the vineyards OF
Italy and Spain.
Young orchards are injured BY Dor,
ers, rabbits and mice and should be
protected against these pests.
Preparations should now be made
TO protect the younger trees In the
orchard from rabbits and sunscald.
Wood ashes are alkaline and not
acid in any degree and are very good
for strawberry and other fruit plants
One secret Of success in ge ting
gratis is to have the scions entirely
dormant when they are placed in the
limbs.
A good deal depends upon what a
certain market prefers, in the matter
Of fruit packages, as well as in fruit
varieties.
Experiments have shown that peach
growers should not wait until the
trees leaf out before they spray with
Bordeaux mixture.
The rabbit is a carrier Of several
parasitic diseases Of animals. Like
some other things they look more in1
nocent than they are.
frequently ornamental shrubs thad
are not pruned each year, as theyl
should be in most cases, grow too tain
and become DISTRACTED and lose much
Of their beauty.
Keep the apples in a cool dryl
place until danger Of freezing occurs,
then move them to the cellar. but be-
sure to keep the cellar as cold as pos,
sible without danger Of freezing.
The Roman stem apple is very easi.
ly affected with bitter rot, but this
may be prevented by spraying with
Bordeaux mixture or lime-sulphur 80
luton before the apples are tuD
grown /.

AVOID DANGER FROM FROST
Formation Of Ice Around Base Of Treea
Keeps Ground In Frozen. condi-
ton, Retardins Growth.

Last year there was a scarcity OF
fruit In the middle states because the
prematurely warm weather thawed
the ground and warmed the trees,
causing them to blossom. This was
followed by frosty weather that froze
the blossoms which contained the
germs necessary to produce fruit.
This is a frequent occurrence and
farmers have used fires and oil stoves
under the branches Of the trees in
their orchards to keep the blossoms
from being frost-bitten.
There is danger Of frost In our
region until April is or later, and by
delaying the budding these trees IN.
til that time this danger would be
avoided, or there is ample time in
the fall of the year for the ripeninE
of the fruit, writes Chas. Dietz in the
Chicago News.
In order to do this all that would be
necessary is to scrape small ridge
Of dirt about six inches high, forming
a circle around the base OF the tree
about five feet from it. After the
ground has thoroughly frozen in the
latter part of January fill this bowl or
space with water, which would be di.
rectly over the root Of the tree. The
cold weather would cause the water
to become ice. Then place a layer OF
straw or hay over this ice. The device
would keep the sun from thawing the
ice, as the snow and ice ridges on
the shady or north side of our fences
now show. As ice is a nonconductol
Of heat, this would keep the dir
around the roots and base of the tree
in a frozen condition, retsrding the
circulation or flowing OF the sap un
I'll it was thawed and warmed up
The straw or hay could be removed
about April Is with safety.

KEEPING BARN. YARDS CLEAN
Dalyman Cannot Expect to Produce
Good Milk when Cows Wade
Through Mud and Filth.
Bv r. J. LYoN.)

It has always been a source Of great
wonder to me how any dairyman can
expect to produce good milk when his
cows are compelled to wade through
mud and filth in the barn yard.
Even il the barn itself is scrupu-
lousy clean-which it cannot be If the
yards are muddy-the odor arising
from the filthy barn yard will Offset all
the efforts made to keep the milk
clean when it comes from the cows.
There is no one solution to fit all
barn yards. Each must be treated by
itself and TO meet the conditions ex-
listing in it. II the yard is situated on
a gentle slope, all that will be needed
is tile drainage, placed about six feet
apart. Tile will keep any barn yard
perfectly dry, but if there is only an
occasional low place in the yard the
thing need not be placed so close to-
gether.
In some yards a great deal OF
broken rock, gravel and coal cinders
are necessary to keep the ground in
good condition. If the ground is a
black heavy soil it may be kept rea-
sonably dry by covering it with these
materials. The first thing to be done
is to remove the top soil to depth of
at least six inches, then cover the
ground with the largest broken rock.
This may be in pieces of from two to
five inches in diameter. Large pebbles
are excellent for this purpose as they
allow the water to drain perfectly
from the surface.
The layer of large rocks or stone
should be thoroughly tamped down
with heavy tamping iron or rolled
with field roller.
The second layer should be a little
smaller and the third very fine
crushed stone. The last layer may be
mixed with cinders which make a hard
surface and if it is properly leyeled
OF can after a time easily be scraped
with an iron or wooden hoe.
