The grain show held in the Pho.

flee, Warren, January H. 1914, was
very well attended by the farmers of
the County, in fact it came far above
what we expected. Everything went
off smoothly and without any fric-
tion. Much credit is due Mr.. Ayers,
Mr.. Tullar and Mr.. Rosendahl who
were the managers, and who super
vised the whole thing. The Marshall
County Pure Seed Growers Associa-
ton is very much obliged to the Pho
neer Loan and Land Company, for
the use of their Office and rooms, not
only for that, but the whole office
force turned in and helped all they
could in every way possible. The Tar

for our use. All this shows the splen-

Warren are taking toward any move
ment that will stimulate a greater
interest in better farming and farm
life.

John J. F'urlong, president of the

At the close of Mr.. Hills address.
President sFurlong produced the corn.
He exhibited several 14-inch ears, de-
claring they were samples he had

Mr.. Furlong explained to the dele
gates that he and Mr.. Hill some

ditions in Minnesota and Mr. Hill had
asked him about the large ears Of
corn grown in the state. He told Mr..

Mr.. Hill addressed the 400 dele

looked for the time when alfalfa
would be looked upon by farmers of
Minnesota as wheat has been regard
ed. He said alfalfa could be grown
in every part of the state, and that
its production will improve not only
the pocketbook, but also the state Of
the human mind, thereby eliminating
that state of mind which causes peo-
