Grain Growers Exposition in Fargo
last winter, has been obtained by the
Northwest Nursery company to place

Should Take Good
Care of Seed Corn
EXTENSION DEPARTMENT OF
STATE COLLEGE ISSUES
TIMELY ADVICE.

The Extension Department of the
North Dakota Agricultural College at
Fargo has issued the following bull
letin relating to seed corn:
Much inconvenience was exper-
fenced during the spring of 1912 be-
cause of the scarcity and high price
of suitable seed corn TO North Dakota
planting. With this inconvenience
came hundreds of regrets that good
corn of the 1911 crop had not been
saved and cared for properly. ..l
The outlook for large percentage
of we'll ripened corn is at present not
exactly flattering. Should this soft
corn be left standing or in shock until
it is frozen, next planting time will
hear another hue and cry for home
grown seed which cannot be produced
and consequently another consign-
ment of the southern grown product,
which can scarcely be expected to
ripen under our most favorable con-
ditions, will be forthcoming.
$50 long as North Dakota continues
to import it's seed from Kansas and
other corn belt states-just so long
will corn growing meet with meagre
success. Big stalks with immature
ears, or with no ears at all,is poor
feed because the straw as we'll as the
grain is immature. If this state is to
produce corn successfully it must
grow those varieties that will ripen
or at least approach the ripening
stage. ...
Everyone who has fairly good
field of suitable variety should make
his seed selection early in September.
The best developed, earliest maturing
ears should be gathered while the
stalks are still standing. The ears
thus selected must be given plenty of
air in the drying process.
when the season of hard freezing
comes the seed corn must be taken
inside, preferably to the attic or cham
Der. 1t never must be allowed
to take moisture from steam or
water in any form. If the seed be
handled in this manner or in some
similar way it may be planted week
or ten days earlier next spring, will
terminate quickly and strongly and
will produce a high percentage of
stand, will grow rapidly, will ripen
early, will prove profitable crop,
and will give pleasure and satisfac-
ton to the grower

the most important matter to come be-
fore the State Bar association, which

recommendation will be made by the
association until the merits of the
question have been thoroughly dis
cussed.

Hard Coal Shortage
COnfrOnts This City
CHARTER ALL LAKE
* 1oATsGRAiN MOVEMENT I'M
TAKES THE CARS. ..t#

There is little probability Of avert
ing q hard coal shortage in Valley
City this winter unless immediate
steps are taken by residents to fill
their bins before the grain movement
absorbs the available car supply. OF
the railroads. The soft coal situation
Is not SO serious but a hard coal fam
inc seems imminent unless efforts
are made to stock up early for the
winter.
This condition was brought about
BY the sudden discovery in Duluth
and Superior within the last few days
that nearly all Of the boats had been
chartered by grain shippers and lum-
Der dealers. The dock laborers' strike
in Buffalo was settled the first of the
week, but not until the tie up had
caused shortage OF lumber carriers.
Following the settlement lumber deal
ers rushed to charter all boats avail
able and so nearly accomplished their
purpose that coal dealers found them
selves almost shut out when they
awakened to the situation. .3 &2
Coal Comes by Boat.
Practically all Of the hard coal
shipped to this vicinity comes to Du-
luth and Superior by boat, thence by
rail. The boat shortage on the lakes
makes it certain that considerable
amount of hard coal shipment to the
Northwest must come by rail. This
is not very satisfactory from an eco
nomical standpoint All railroads
have conceded that there will be a
shortage of cars for grain, and fuel
dealers in the northwest are con-
fronted with the question OF getting
cars for coal. w. .'' :
Local dealers have their bins well
filled now but they are unanimous in
warning the residents of Valley City
that, unless the winters supply is pur-
chased early, giving them a chance
to empty and refill their bins before
the grain car shortage begins, the
>:ity is certain to suffer from a fuel
sa mine and high prices. The maxi
u um capacity OF all bins in the city is
estimated at 5000 tons, and this sup
ply could be exhausted with three or
four days should rush be made for
coal. The supply would not last un-
til the bins could be refilled, under
conditions of such car shortage as
threatened, and famine would pre-
vail. s.-.. r. - =.
How to Avert Shortage.
To obviate such an undesirable sit
uation dealers are urging all persons
to begin buying at once, so that they
will be enabled to ship coal and keep
their bins filled to capacity when the
grain movement will tie up the bulk
of all freight traffic.
In anticipation of the hard coal
shortage several dealers outside of
the city have built additional bins
along the railroad tracks for storage
purposes, but local dealers are not so
fortunate. They are left in the posi-
ton of being unable to supply the de-
mand at time when coal is most
needed, unless the residents help
empty their bins now 50 that the sup
ply may be replenished in advance of
the big grain shipments.
