BARR TELLS BEET GROWERS HOW
TO SECURE BEST CROP RESULTS

Fall plowing for sugar beets is
very important and maximum re-
suits depend entirely upon it. 1t
means from to tons of beets
per acre increase over spring plow-
ing and extra effort should be made
by the grower to have all his beet
land plowed before winter sets in
The farmer who has so much work
on hand that he cannot do this plow-
ing can afford to pay $500 to $500
per day to have it done, as it will be
returned to him over 100 per cent
from his beet crop.
Grain stubble land should be thor
oughly disced as soon as the grain is
removed SO that the stubble will be
cut up and mixed with the surface
soil before plowing. BY this method
a good compact seed bed can be cas-
lily made In the spring, and the heavy
stubbles instead of being detrimeut
are of material value to the crop.

to 2 inches deep, or rather detph of
blowing should be regulated by prev
ious plowings, and not more than 3
inches of new soil should be brought
to the surface. as too much raw, new
soil is detrimental to any crop.
Timothy and clover land should
be handled very much In the same
way. Discing before plowing is very
necessary, as by cutting up the mead
ow, especially in heavy soils, the
aftermath gets well Incorporated

quickly in the spring and much bene-
fit to the beet crop is the result.
While II no discing or cutting of sur
face is done and this sod is turned
into solid burrows, it takes two years
before beneficial results are obtained
from the grass sod as fertilizer.
Alfalfa lands should be plowed as

COYOTE LASSOED AFTER A
SHARP SCRAP BITES HORSE

A few days ago coyote showing
every sign of rabies, bit horse be-
longing to George Mitchell, and one
of viii Hooyer's animals at the
fats miles n. E. of Soda Lake.
Hoover swung his trlsty lariat and
went for that NANCY cur with all
the skill and aplomb for which he is
noted. But the brute put up peach
of scrap. grabbing the lariat with
his teeth and fighting back good and
plenty. Many times during the en-
counter Hoover was nearer the coy
oto than he wished he was. But I'm
ally he got a "strargle holt and
towed his victim to his death in good
old range fashion; "Just plum drug
rim to death" The wolf WIS the ag-
gressor and Bill killed him in self
defense and defense of his livestock.
The head was sent to the uniyer-
sity laboratory where a diagnosis
showed that the animal was un-
doubtedly affected with rabies. To-
bacco Juice was applied TO the wound
on Hoover's horse and up to the
present time no signs of the dread
malady are visible. Bill burned all
of his paraphernalia that might have
been contaminated, including the
lariat. Next time he'll use a gun
because cartridges are cheaper than
riatas.

four democrotic county officials
were elected. The one receiv-

Walter Verge. During his alb

connection with the splendid

drawback at present being
shortage of cars.
