CORN..EXPERTS SEE
CHANCES BRIGHTEN
Corn at Dent Stage Should be
Picked if Dangers Threaten
Through Early Frost

The corn situation. which ten days
or two weeks ago looked desperate,
now seems much more promising to
farmers. 1t looks as if Minnesota
grown seed corn for next springs
planting will not be wholly wanting
The dangers to next years crop have
diminished and the absence of frost
the past week in most parts of the
state have allowed much corn to ar
rive at the dent stage at which it may
be picked for seed although it will be
better to let it ripen fully If frosts
do not impend.
This is the situation as reported to
Dean A. F. Woods. Andrew Boss,
A. D. Wilson and others of the Min
nesota College of Agriculture where
the possible fate of the corn crop has
been matter Of discussion for sever
al weeks.
Seed corn is going to be scarce at
best, they say, and the farmer who
picks his seed corn in time will not
only make sure of crop next year.
but he may lay in surplus that will
be as good as money in the bank next
year. They suggest that corn be
picked from the standing stalks in the
best areas of the fields. Where farm
ers cannot find any seed corn far enough
advanced in their own fields arrang.
ments should be made to pick from some
neighbor's field. That will be cheeper
than buying corn at advanced prices
next year. or than taking corn from
more southern sources.
Immediately on getting a supply
of seed corn 1T should be stored on
hangers or open shelves in such a
way that every ear can be free from
danger of freezing.
These are suggestions from men
who know all about corn, and the sug.
gestion should be needed by every
corn grower in Stevens county.

Can't Stop Sears & Roebuck

Sears & Roebuck are still advertis-
ing. They are hitting up the pace
faster than ever although there are
several thousand merchants in Min
nesota who claim advertising doesn' t
pay At the state fair grounds
this year Sears & Roebuck had a
brilliant display and had men on the
spot handing out advertising matter.
The fair management is receiving
stinging criticism from varioug quar-
ters for permitting the Chicago con.
Germs to exhibit. but under the state
law and the rules of the state fair
board all merchants and exhibitors
must be treated alike. The only diff :
erence is that the Chicago merchants
know how to use advertising. For
several years they have made fiatter-
ing offers to Minnesota newspaper
men for space and the strange part of
it is that the editors have refused in
order to protest the home merchant
Morris tribune., 1915-10-01

who refuses to see the value of in.
ducing business through publicity.
Nobody in Minnesota would know what
Sears & Roebuck have to sell if they
did not read about it through the firm g
advertising. If Sears & Roebuck
wish to repeat their display at the
fair next year they cannot be preven-
ted unless the legislature takes a
hand, and it is doubtful if legislation
of this kind would stand. If adver-
tising doesn't pay it should be graft
flying to the non advertising merchant
to see the Chicago firm keep on spend.
ing their money SO foolishly. If ad-
vertising doesn't help the Minnesots
merchant it certainly won't help
Sears & Roebuck. But advertising
does pay and it pays enormous divi-
dends. Description of the article and
the price is all the prospective GUS
toner wishes to know. The merch.
ant who bases his advertising cam
paign along these lines wins every
time.

Hail and Wind Cause Damage

Herman Podratz, a we'll known
farmer from Swan Lake township.
was in the city Saturday marketing
some poultry and live stock. He
stated heavy wind Monday of last
week toppled over some of his grain
and hay stacks and caused him extra
work in rebuilding the stacks. Sat-
urday, two weeks ago, heavy hail
storm visited his farm and beat down
much of his garden stuff. The storm
extended to the vicinity of Hoffman
where much damage was done. Two
miles south of his farm clear. bright
weather prevailed.
Mr.. Podratz bought some of Joe
Gaffney's chickens year ago. He
has done so we'll with them that he is
contemplating going into poultry on a
more extensive scale. His birds fur.
nished eggs all through the winter
while 200 chickens from the old flock
were idle. The idle birds were gath.
cred up last week and are on theil
way to twin city butcher shops.
