Spring Flowing Eliminates Weeds

The amount of moisture in the ground
in the spring is only one of the fac
tors in producing grain crops. Weeds
growing with the crop may use up
enough water to decrease the grain
yield. 1t is estimated that one ton
of Russian thistles uses IS per cent as
much water as it would take to grow

Profit in Good Seed Potatoes.

The right kind of potatoes bring
better prices than the wrong kind,
and the right kind can usually be
grown with very little added trouble.
The right kind of potatoes is the
kind the public wants. To find out
the taste of the public as to pota-
toes, D. E. Willard, of the Northern
Pacific Railway company not long
ago made an extended Investigation
in homes, hotels, restaurants, and
commission houses-from Chicago to
the Pacific coast. He found the
demand was for sound potatoes, of
good flavor, medium size, and regular
shape. He also found that such
potatoes commanded higher prices
than mixed lots Of large and small,
diseased and sound, regularly and
irregularly shaped potatoes.
To grow the kind Of potatoes the
public wants, then, is the thing to
do, and the way to begin is to plant
the kind of potatoes you wish to
grow. This means careful selection
from the hills observing the follow
ing rules:
Select only from hills in which a
larger part of the potatoes answer

Creamery Having Banner Year.

Thus far 1915 has been banner
year at the Princeton Cooperative
creamery. and more butterfat has
been churned up to date than during
all of 1914. Up to October l, this
year, a total of Pill pounds of
butterfat had been purchased from
the farmers, and total of S58, O79. IL
had been paid them therefor. Last
year 1873, 400 pounds of butterfat were
purchased and the farmers were paid
$40, $3.50 This is indeed splendid
showing, as the creamery has taken
in %, 653 pounds of butterfat during
the first nine months of 1915 in ex-
cess of what it took in during the IL
months of 1914. A goodly sum is paid
to farmers of this vicinity every
month for butterfat. and during
July the tidy sum of $40, $3.50 was
paid out at the creamery.
The Princeton Cooperative cream
cry has experienced a steady and
healthy growth, and it is a valuable
enterprise, not only to the farmers
but to the village as we'll. The
officers, directors, manager and but
termaker are to be congratulated
upon the splendid success they are
achieving.

Onamia Man Suicides.

George Coulton, an old resident of
Onamia town, committed suicide last
Sunday, using a 1920 rifle. III
health was presumably the reason
for the rash deed, as he had been
afflicted with rheumatism for some
time.
The body might not have been dis
for some time, had not Coul-
ton made arrangements with his
neighbors to the effect that in case
he became i'll he would suspend a
white flag from the roof of his house,
as he was widower and lived alone.
On Monday morning B. Erickson, a
neighbor, noticed flag attached to
the Coulton house, and went over
to Investigate. Upon his arrival he
found the dead body with the rifle
beside it.
Coroner S. H. Olsen of Milaca was
notified, and he went to Onamia
last Monday, but decided that an in
quest was not necessary.
Deceased was about go years of
age, and had been a resident of Ona
mia several years. He is survived by
two sons and two daughters.

How to End it All.

At the present writing we have
no desire to hurl sig, ourselves into

do we wouldn't lean against a
double-barrel shotgun and pull the
trigger, as many do. Neither would
we chop our head off with an anna
teur guillot1ne, eat a square meal
of rat poison, blow out the gas, drink
concentrated lye, sit down on the
lap OF a buzzsaw, smoke cigarette,
or call Kentuckian a liar or !. poor

MAY DOUBLE FLEET
New Naval Program Covers Period
OF Five Years-.-rIeets With
Approval of President.
Fifteen to Twenty Dreadnaughts and
Battle Cruisers, Besides Sub.
marines, Provided for.

Washington, Oct. 13.-Fifteen to
twenty fighting ships of the dread
nought and battle cruiser type, with
a proportionate number of sea going
submarines, coast submarines, scout
cruisers, destroyers and auxiliaries-
enough to make a new American fleet
is contemplated by Secretary Dan
iels for recommendation as five.
year building program for the United
States navy
President Wilson and Secretary Dan.
iels have discussed Informally the
needs of the navy and are agreed the
fleet must be doubled in the next five
years, with the addition of many of
the latest type of fast and powerful
fighting craft.
Details as to numbers have not yet
been finally worked out, but the idea
of fixing ratio for a. continuing pro-
gram over period of five years is
the basic principal upon which the
general board of the navy and Secre.
tary Daniels now are planning their
recommendations.
Another conference between the
president and secretary will be held
Friday, at which the total number
probably will be fixed.
The five-year' naval program, when
completed, would add, in addition to
dreadnoughts and battle cruisers
nearly a hundred submarines, about
seventy destroyers and several scout
cruisers and proportionate number
of fuel and hospital ships.
An important part of the program
too, will be proposal for large in
crease in personnel.
Appropriation for at least 5000 addi
tional men will be asked for the first
year to make up present deficiencies
and an adequate number will be
sought to man the new ships built in
the five-year period.
The total cost of the proposed pro.
gram for the first year, according to
present plans, is estimated at nearly
SEAS, 100000, or about $100,000,000 in.
crease over last year.
Just what construction should be
provided fors.the first year has not
been determined.
What the president will ask of con
gress for the army is still mystery
