A really remarkable change is COM
Ing into agriculture in Minnesota.
Wheat growing still continues on a
large scale, but there is an increas-
Ing tendency away from single-crop-
ping and toward Investigation.
In this new movement one hears
much of corn and alfalfa, as we'll as
clover. This does not mean, however,
that the small grains, including wheat,
are to be neglected. It means mere
~ that corn and alfalfa and clover
are to be more freely introduced as
crops of great value in the feeding of
live stock and in the restoration of
soil often taxed too heavily by small
grain-growing. The result will be
that Minnesota will grow quite as
much wheat as ever, or even more
than ever, but grow it on fewer acres

trived by Lawyer Sheean, Mr.. Stone
cited the case of a Great Northern
engineer who was shown to have
made $4,000 a month, working 3O4
hours.
'Somebody's arithmetic is wrong"
remarked Mr.. Stone. Here we have
a man who is said to have worked 304
hours and to have drawn over $4,000
pay on the Great Northern road. The
fact is that in mountain territory on
that line the highest hourly rate IS
TN cents. Multiplying 304 hours by
71kcents, Mr.. Keefe, what do you
get?"
Mr.. Keefe struggled moment with
his lead pencil and then said, 81 get
the result of $216.66.'
"And yet your payroll sheet shows
that this same man drew over $4,000
that month when the fact is the high
est hourly rate is TN cents an hour?"
persisted Mr.. Stone. "You say this
same man worked 304 hours at that
rate and made $329.00-how do you
account for it,"
Mr.. Keefe was puzzled. He did not
know. Mr.. Sheean weakly remarked
that it might be due to basing wages
on mileage instead of hours and Vice
President Park, Fastening into the
| breach, said that if it was an error
| it would be easy to clear it up. Mr.
Keefe agreed to wire Great Northern
