BASKET BALL TOMORROW.
North Dakota University Team vii
Play Luther at College
Auditorium.

North Dakota University basket
ball team will visit DEBORAH for the
first time, Thursday February 18th.
Basket ball manager, A. M. Wisness
received a telegram Saturday NOR
ming that they accepted his offer. Mr..
Wisneses has spent much time and
energy in obtaining good games for
Luther College and the people of De-
corah, but now he has capped the
climax in getting university cali
bre team to visit DEBORAH. University
basket ball is much rougner and
speadier than that played at most
small colleges. Their men have both
weight and speed, which is used sys-
tematically in a university team. The
Flickertails reign supreme in North
Dakota and could not even find
enough to do in Minnesota so they
have decided to come to Iowa. But
DEBORAH means that Luther college
must pay them over twice the ordin-
airy amount, so tickets will sell at
35c. Luther College has at present
one of the strongest teams she has
ever had. Streeter the star gaurd is
back in the game in better form than
ever. Capt. Gigstad has kept his men
in excellent shape and Luther ex-
poets to show what Iowa cornfed
athletes can do. The local college
quintet has not lost game on it's
home floor this year and this is the
reason why the college quintet expect
to win because they want a clean
slate at home and abroad wherever
they receive fair treatment.
Game called at 1880 at college au-
ditorium, admission 35c.
Saturday the Luther basket ball
-uad go on trip up north. Satur-
day evening they play st. Olaf at
Mortified, Monday Feb. 16, they
play Hamline University at st. Paul,
and on Tuesday they play Carlton at
Mortified. The trip is short; that is

WINNESHIEK HOTEL IMPROVED.
Interior of Popular Hosiery Has Tn.
dergOne a Complete Renovation
This Winter.

The Winneshiek Hotel has under
gone some fine improvements this
winter. Artist A. M. Kelly and his
assistants have spent great share
of the winter in redecorating and
painting the interior of the building
The management has had the work
done in a most substantial manner
too. The dining room Is one of the
handsomest in the state. 1t has been
redecorated, the color scheme being
cream and tan, with a tiffany finish
dado. The lobby, rotunda, billiard
room, sample room and kitchen are
all redecorated. The lobby cornice
is in old ivory and the walls are
olive green.
The hotel has SO rooms and every
one equipped in the most modern
manner. The hot water heating
plant which supplys the hot water
for the rooms has been enlarged and
improved upon, and Is now in per-
feet working order.
The hotel was opened nine years
ago, and has been under the efficient
mapagership of Landlord N. l.. Bailey
and wife all these years, and they
have proved most capable hotel peo-
pie, giving the best of service to their
large patronage. The entire service
throughout the hotel is Of the best,
and the hotel is one of the finest in
the west. The travelling public will
certainly appreciate this popular ho-
tel more than ever now, because it
presents handsome appearance,
and comfort and luxury is found at
every turn. The improvements cost
great deal of money, but the man
agement is considerate of the trav-
cling publics wants, and felt a de-
sire to give them the best. Mr.. and
Mrs. Bailey are to be congratulated
on their efforts in giving the people
one Of the best conducted hotels in
the state, and the large patronage
they receive shows plainly that their
work is appreciated.

CROPS OF OTHER COUNTRIES.
Soil the World Over is Gradual,
Wearing Out.

Russia's wheat yield for twenty
years has averaged only eight and
one-quarter bushels per acre, with
the ground lying fallow every third
year and famine every five years
The average farm lands of New
England, New York, Virginia and
other Eastern states have markedly
decreased in productive power and
value. Thousands of acres within 100
miles of Washington, d. c., once
worth $50 to SIS per acre, are now
abandoned for agriculture. The East
frequently spends 50 to $40 per acre
for plant food to keep up it's soils.
Wheat in England averages thirty
two bushels per acre, but England
| imports four times as much wheat
as she produces. English farmers
use several hundred thousand tons of
commercial plant food annually.
Belgium imports five times as much
wheat as she produces and quantities
Of corn and oil cake.
Germany consumes nearly twice as
much wheat as she produces, and i'm
ports corn and billion pounds of oil
cake. While she exports principally
,0O0,000,000 pounds of sugar, con-
tanning no plant food of value.
Denmark imports more wheat than
she produces, besides corn and $780,
100000 pounds of oil cake, and ex-
ports principally 100000 pounds
Of butter, containing practically no
plant food.
These countries that feed practi-
cally all they raise and buy in addi-
ton large quantities of fertilizers and
other food stuffs from which to pro-
duce still larger amounts of manure,
can thus make their soils richer than
ever before, but the great agricultur-
al areas of the United States are
being steadily depleted.
Improvements in seed, cultivation
and crop, rotation and the addition of
1000, 900 acres of richest black soil
have increased the average yield of
corn in Illinois, but some portions of
the 100000 acres of older corn
land are now producing smaller
crops.
If we repeat in the great corn belt
the history of land ruin in Palestine,
in Southern Europe, in Russia, and
in the United States, where shall our
children go for bread? After the land
is impoverished it is too late to in
vest in soil improvement. Poverty
| is helpless. Our country cannot af-
ford to wait twenty-five or fifty years
before adopting permanent systems
of soil improvement.
If we are to maintain the fertility
of our lands we must apply limestone
and phosphate where needed to grow
legumes, and we must pillow under
the legumes to feed the grain crops.
This is the Illinois system for not
only maintaining fertility, but for
increasing it indefinitely.

ST. VALENTINE

What has become of the young
fellows and girls who used to post
each other those lacey, mushy, lovey-
dovey valentines on Feb. IA? Per-
haps they are still doing it, but the
ST. Valentine doings of the present
time seem to be more of kidlet af-
fair.
With what anxious heart the youth
of IL to is years of age used to well
come the coming of the anniversary
With what discriminating care he
selected gorgeous display of Cupid
emblems to please his lady love!
With what beating heart he dropped
1t behind the post office!
And at the country school there
was ti.e exchange OF missives at the
old hollow stump. With pictures of
Cupids and of hearts pierced with
darts Of love, these valentines were
then worth their weight in gold. In
the days OF Chaucer and Shakespeare,
Valentine day was day Tor beirothai
and was marked by the giving of pre-
sents. This usage grew out of the
fairy legends that on this day the
birds chose their mates.

ficient weight. Drags are made by
many hardware people, but the home
made kind is good enough.
That the drag has met with great
favor elsewhere is well konwn. The
Spartanburg Herald thus describes
its use in that county:
1.-THE split log drag is doing the
work In Spartanburg coutny. The eff
ficiency OF this simple device for road
improvement may be demonstrated
on several roads leading out Of the
city, but OF course, the Howard Gap
road, where the drag has been used
longest, is the best example to be
found. We doubt that there is a bet
ter clay road in South Carolina than
that-and its splendid condition is
due to the maintainance OF the drag.
1--WE believe this a great system of
road working and that 1t has come to
stay-prQvided, and this is most i'm
portant. II proves economical. 1t
should be the cheapest means OF
working roads and If the men in
charge OF the various sections will
keep an eye on the expense and hold
that down as low as possible, not to
allow the road to suffer, there will
never be any departure from the drag
and section system and the roads of
this county will be good the year
around. Keep down expense, and
keep up the road. That's the slogan.
