'FIv CARLOADS
ALFALFA seed.
Contracted F0I5 to Be Placed
IN West Central
MINES ota. !.
.kAND|Y0hI co. WANTS 4 SHARE

OuISTOWtu OF the %sCOrQE ana Colt I.
show held in the main streets of
Wheaton yesterday was the purchase
by the West Central Development
association OF $4,000 worth Of alfalfa
seed. All Of this seed is to be plant
ed in the II counties embraced by
the West Central association. For
100000 the association will receive
five entire carloads OF alfalfa seed,
all Of It registered. 10, .== ..::rez=
This marks a new departure ii: Min
nesota agriculture, for, with the ex-
ception Of Carver. county where for
so years a variety of alfalfa has been
grown there is said to be no place In
the state where the farmers have
grown it to any great extent. s5.
In the IL counties in. which the
West Central association does its
work Of development. alfalfa has been
tried In occasional spots lately and
with results so profitable that the of
f1cers Of the association felt justified
in the large expenditure for seed con-
tracted for last night, when the cur
tain had been rung down on the
corn and colt show. :y 1 sszz
1t is felt certain that this seed will
produce about five tons of alfalfa to
the acre. On the market alfalfa
brings from SIS to $40 a ton. Two
or three crops to the year can readily
be grown, the f1ve-ton-to-an-acre esti-
mate being gross for the year. .4s.
AGRICULTURE EXPERTS APP Il
PROVE. ~ -.~ !. +:
Confident that alfalfa can be grown
successfully in their district, the Off
GERS of the West Central association
declare the investment contracted for
last night to be the most profitable
ever made by the association. It was
undertaken, only after the splendid
announcement Traverse county farm
ers gave the association by their re-
presentation at the corn and colt
show yesterday and after Dean
Woods and the state agricultural ag-
ents had given their approval.
The dean would not approve the al
falfa purchase until assured that the
seed would be the registered article.
All of the lot contracted for is regis
tered, every bushel carrying notation
of where it was grown. If the farm
er wants more Of the same seed next
year he can obtain it. -s@=
''This is the most important move
ever made by the West Central assoc
ciation,' said F. w. Murphy, it's presi-
dent, last night. For stock feeding,
alfalfa is better than hay. One Of the
five cars purchased will be placed on
sale at the corn and alfalfa show at
Morris, Dec to 49, It is certain that
this carload will be disposed Of on
that occasion. minneapolis Tribune.
Through the efforts of county agri.
cultural agent, Mr.. Poe, Kandiyohi
county will get its share of this seed.
Mr.. Poe has succeeded in getting the
backing of number Of our citizens
in movement to secure quantities of
this valuable seed, and anyone wish
ing some of it should address him and
have it reserved. Getting good seed,
such as this South Dakota article is
guaranteed to be, is starting right. 1t
is an opportunity none should neglect.

GIRL ARRESTED

San Francisco, June Sixteen
year-old Aileen Shaw of Eureka. who
was arrested yesterday for masquerade
ing in male attire, was led today from
her cell in the city prison to the mar
riage altar by Joseph Strgei the sutton
whose search for a wife led to her ar
rest.
There is no disposition on the part
of the police or anybody else to press
the charges against her.
The reason the girl gave for wear
ing mems clothes was that as a girl
she could not earn a LIVING in San
Francisco and be free from insult.
From Pittsburg comes the story of
two young girls who committed sui
eide after spending a night with two
detectives, who enticed the young girls
from a dance hall. The detectives
had been detailed to the dance hall to
prevent indulgence in immoral dances
This is how Americas womanhood
and virtue is protected in our cities.

The Paterson silk workers strike Is
now in it's nineteenth week The bosses
maintain that the strike was intsigated
by irresponsible people and kept up
by INSCRIPTIONS agitators; that wages
are all that could be desired, and that
the demands so far as wages are con
cerned are wholly uniustified The
owners refuse to deal with the work
ers while they remain members of
revolutionary l. W. w, which seems
to them an outlaw organization.
Below Is a portion of the New Jersey
thirty-firth annual report of the Bureau
of Statistics of Labor and Industries
for 1913. which furnish the basis for
the strike. Number of employees, 49,
3i7, 80 per cent of which were chill
dren under 16 years of age.
One-fifth of the men engaged in the
board and silk industry earn less than
S445 yearly; the earnings of almost
half of the men are below 5000; one
quarter of the men receive from 5000
to $3.50, and only one-third of the men
receive more than Sal yearly.
These figures obviously show that
more than one-third of the women 16
years and over earn less than $346 a
year; the yearly earnings of nearly
two-thirds fall below $40; the earn
ings of almost one-fifth of all women
employed in the industry are between
$40 and 1898. and only a little more
than one-fifth of the women earn
more than 1893 yearly.
From all reliable Investigations
carried on throughout the country this
wage is insufficient to maintain a
normal physical existence.
