YELLOW LAWNS ARE EASILY
MADE GREEN.

Just because a lawn is yellow rather
than green is no reason why the dande-
lions should cause the owner of the lawn
to feel blue There is an easy method of
killing them recommended by W. l.. o.
valid, head Of the sead-test;ng laboratory
at University Farm, St. Paul. This
is by spraying with solution of sulphate
of iron.
Heavy growths of dandelion may be
killed by spraying from a nozzle that
gives rnist-l;iSe spray with solution
of 1 - pounds of sulphate of iron to a
gallon Of water. An ordinary garden
sprinkler does not give good results.
The solution should be sprayed over the
lawn about three days after the grass
has been cut and on bright day when
the possibilities of rain are slight. The
lawn must not be cut or Watered for
three days or more after the application.
The lawns may be sprayed once a
month during the entire summer, start
ing at the time the dandelions appear.
With proper care the spray will not in
lure the grass. Care should be taken in
applying the solution to keep it off con-
crete walks, as it permanently discolors
them. Stains in clothing made by the
sulphate Of icon are rot removable.
If there are only few dandelions on
the lawn, Mr.. Oswald says, they may be
removed by cutting them off just below
the surface of tie ground with knife
Gasoline or kerosene applied to the crown
of the individual. plant will kill it.
Permanent re!iet from dandelions anc
,otler weeds can be secured only bS
getting thick vigorous growth OF grass
This is secured by using plenty of fertilizer
and grass seed.

GREAT AMOUNT OF MAIL MAT
TER GOES TO RURALITES.

Rural carriers out of the New Ulm
post O flee handle an average Of about
$4,000 pounds every month in the year.
according to recent test made by all
the carriers. During the month of
April they handled 57,784 pieces of mail
matter, weighing a little more than 49,
$40 pounds. April is supposed to be an
average month. The amount of mail
delivered to the residents of the rural
districts if so course good deal greater
than that collected from the rural boxes.
There we're 1862 pieces delivered and
only ATOP collected. The average num-
Der of pieces delivered by one carrier
seems to be about 1000, the carrier on
route four handling as high as 1888
pieces and the carrier on route seven
only 5,340 pieces. The weight of the
mail handled by each carrier 4 varies
from 800 to 1000 pounds.

POTATO PLANTING PROBLEMS
ON CITY LOTS r%...>

With spring comes the early potato
problem. Special Bulletin No. 5 of thu
Agricultural Extension Division, Uni
versity Farm, St. Paul, on Standard Pc
tato Varieties for Minnesota, describes
the leading varieties suited to the state
with illustrations of ideal types. Early
Ohio is the leading early potato. Tri.
umph and Irish Cobbler are most i'm.
portant as seed potatoes for southern
trade.
According to Richard Wellington OF
the division of horticulture, University
Farm, one of the authors of this bulle-
tin, the selection of seed potatoes does
much toward governing the yield. One
should discard all elongated or abnor-
mally tapering potatoes and potatoes
with very deep eyes, he says. Small po-
tatoes weighing less than five ounces
should not be used, and badly sprouted
potatoes may reduce the yield.
After the tubers have been selected,
it is best to soak them in a solution of
four ounces of corrosive sublimate to
thirty gallons of water to free them
from Rhizoctonia or scab, he says. Cor
rosive sublmate corrodes metals, so it
is best to put the solution in wooden
tub or barrel.
Seed pieces of potatoes should not
be cut to weigh less than three-fourths
of an ounce and pieces weighing an
ounce are desirable if not too expensive.
After the potatoes are cut, they must
not be stored in large quantities, for
there is danger of heating.
The depth OF planting depends on the
type of soil, continued Mr.. Wellington.
Early potatoes are generally not planted
so deep as late ones. In light soils four
sor five inches is deep enough; in heavy
soils inch less will do. The width
between rows ought to be from three
to three and a half feet. Early potatoes
are usually dropped fifteen inches apart
in the row.
If it is possible to get seed, of good
variety for the entire field, growers
would find it profitable to plant plot
Of the good variety to raise seed for
next spring.

Last Sunday May 9TH, the Searles
boys were handed the same defeat as
they had given Cottonwood the Sunday
before only there being better set of

So it goes to show that if the Cotton

for this was no practice game and turned
out a victory by the score of Is to 5 in
favor of Cottonwood.
