AGRICULTURAL COLUMN.
By JOHN SWEETHEART.
FIELD NOTES

Use the harrow and prevent the loss
of moisture. Continued dry weather
will soon take out much if we do not
get a mulch of dust on top. Fast
growth is needed for our crops now
and there is nothing like cultivation
to help this along.
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1915-06-11

Wisconsin has a weed Law. Watch
out and do not let noxious weeds go
to seed. The penalty is more than
the cost of keeping them down. This
applies to the town as well as country.
Noxious plants seeding on an open
farm or in village or town are surely
a disgrace.
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1915-06-11

The fellow who is making good at
the farm business is the man who is
studying his business and stopping the
leaks. Many have not even found the
leak. Keep your eye on that spring
tooth when you use it on open ground.
After stunps are out use disc. You
can tell by the land.
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1915-06-11

We need more cows. Plan on get
ting started or adding to your herd
this summer or fall. Speak about it
at any of the Market and Farmers
Days that will be held in all parts of
the county this summer.
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1915-06-11

Watch out for trouble with your
hogs. Cholera has appeared in the
county and may show up again any
time. Gall the Agricultural Repre-
sentative at the first sign of trouble.
He will vaecinate. Delay in this means
total loss.

No Matter WHO'S Elected.

While the office seekers in their talkfests,
and through their publicity organs, are paint
ing rosy pictures OF the wonderful things they
will do for Omaha II elected. and telling what
dire disasters await us IL they are beaten. there
are a few things which # will be we'll for the
thinking citizen who refuses TO be stampeded
by loud noise or big type to remember.
No matter who's elected, Omaha is going to
continue to forge ahead in the procession OF pro-
4 gressive and thriving western cities.
No matter who's elected the machinery Of
our city government will continue to revolvc
the taxes will be approximately the same. and
we will get for our money no more than we pas
for
No matter who's elected the general moral
level Of the community. which is already high.
will rise only along with the general moral stan
dards Of the people who live here.
No matter who's elected. the police and the
fire departments will both be kept busy putting
out conflagrations that break loose periodically
-conflagrations caused by over-heated inflam-
mables, and CONGREGATIONS caused by over
heated men and women.
No matter who's elected. the conflict be-
tween the public service corporations and the
people will be waged in varying degrees of in
tensity. Whenever the corporations think they
are getting the worst of Il, they will appeal to
the courts; whenever their patrons think they
are getting the worst of It. they Will appeal 10
the voters.
No matter who's elected, Omaha will be a
bigger, better and grander city for people TO
live in next year than It is this year, just as It
is this year bigger, better and grander than e
was last year, the year before OF the year be-
fore that.
