TINE SIX RULES
For Care With Fire in..ihe
Mountains.
| IF every member of the pub
lie strictly observe these
simple rules, the great an
nual loss by Forest Fires
would be reduced to
minimum.
BE sure your match is
out before you throw it away.
KNOCK out your. pipe
ashes or throw your cigar or
cigarette stump where there
is nothing to catch FIRE.
3.--Don't build camp FIRE
any larger than is absolutely
necessary. Never leave it
even for a short time without
putting it OUT with water or
earth.
d Don't build a camp fire
againt tree or log. Build a
small one where YOU can
scrape away the needles,
leaves or grass from all sides
OF it.
s.-Don't build bon fires.
The wind may come at any
time and start a fire yon can
not control.
6.-If you discover a FIRE,
put it out If possible; il you
can't, get word of it to. the
u. S. Forest Ranger
or State FIRE Warden just as
quickly as you possibly can.

Anoka Union: The yield of potatoes

Anoka Union: The yield of potatoes
in this vicinity has shown a pronounc-
ed decline and the average will play
around one hundred bushels to the
acre. Fact is the seed potatoes planted
have about run out and the land is q
close second More care in the selec-
tion of seed must follow ard the land
must be enriched materiallysbefore the
yield will be what it should be-. Un-
less this is done, corn certainly will be
king around this section instead of
potatoes that have allowed our farmers
to drive automobiles.
