L.0. Kjeland Tells
Sweet Clover Value

The limiting factor for stock raising
in Barnes county is pastures. To pro-
vide winter forage is comparatively
easy, and in the future, by partially
stitutlng a rotation of sweet clover for
summer fallow will, even in the driest
seasons, insure plenty of forage. Many
farmers maintain that lin spite of all
grading up" they had better stock 20
years ago than today. Where this is
true the indiscriminate mixing of
breeds is partly responsible. But poor,
dry pastures, with no leguminous for
age, are the principal causes.
No animal stunted the first year Of
its life will ever reach its full develop
ment. Nor is this possible without
some forage rich in protein (the meat
and muscle forming materially Orig
inally our soils enriched by the life
work and decay Of native legumes, be-
sides countless ages Of vegetable de-
posits, produced much more nutritious
grasses, but since the coming Of white

Faribault Packing
Plant Good Type Of
Plant Needed Here

Faribault, Mimi, is to establish a
packing plant that would be approx
mately such a plant as the Equity
would need in North Dakota. Valley
City is the logical place for this In"
dustry, and the following brief descrip-
ton of the Faribault plant will give
an idea of it's extent:
Faribault Mimi, March 17.-Plans
for the building Of the new packing
plant have arrived and bids for con-
struction will be received in a lew
days. Six buildings are to be erected
this year. Two will be five stories in
height, the remainder three and four
stories. The foundations and power
house are nearly completed.
1t is planned to rush the work 50
that killing can be begun by the mid
die of the summer. Five hundred men
will be employed at the plant within
four or five years.
The company has been organized
with 100000 capital. Farmers are lib.
eral buyers Of the stock.

seed purposes only. When ready to
harvest, cut with binder, load on hay
racks (no shocking is necessary, and
take directly to the pasture where the
bundles may be scattered in the de-
sired places. Nature will take care Of
the rest. This method will eliminate
all waste from Smelling, which is u.s.
ually from so to Is per cent. BY these
and similar ways of increasing both
quality and quantity we should in
crease the carrying capacity of our
pastures at least three times. have
emphasized the importance of legumes
for the full development of livestock,
of humus for increasing the WATERFALL
sorbing and water-holding capacity Of
the soil and the necessity of maintain
ing the nitrogen supply of the land.
In regard to the last problem I shall
quote the following words from well
known author, words so true in as
sertion and so grand OF conception that
they deserve to be memorized by ev-
cry child in the public schools:
"The solution of this problem is of
the most vital interest to agriculture
and to the human race. The problem
itself is the most important of all prob
lens before us today. For these rea-
sons: Upon it's solution rest the
maintenance of the fertility of the land
and the production of food in sufficient
quantities to supply all the needs of
the entire living world; bread and
meat, heat and shelter, every sort
of food and raiment."

fires and overstocking has sadly re-
duced both quality and quantity.
How can we undo the evil produced
by past ignorance? How can we make
our exhausted pastures supply the
abundance of nutritious forage so nee
essary for the success of our live stock
industry? BY restoring the bumus.
1t is the life and backbone of the SOIL
Ey raising legumes, which furnish pro-
tein for the stock, obtain their nitrogen
from the air and when decaying rap
idly increase the organic contents of
the soil.
Of non-leguminous grasses we have
bromus inermus, bluegrass, redtop
and slender wheat grass, which seem
to give satisfaction in about the order
named. BY mixing few pounds Of
sweet clover or Turkestan alfalfa with
the bromus, etc., more nutritious for
age could be had.
For improving our pastures on a
large scale the yellow sweet clover
(millelotes officinales) will be found
the best. This is the weed SO much
objected to in the east. Yellow sweet
clover does not grow as coarse as the
white clover; it is more bushy, with
the lower branches extending along
the ground, and will ripen it's seeds
two weeks earlier and is just as readily
eaten by stock. The yellow clover,
like the white, has large, fleshy roots
which decay the second year, leaving
large amounts Of vegetable matter in
the soil, thereby greatly increasing it's
waterholding capacity. This is the
,, only way humus can be brought to the
soil in many pastures.
For general conditions so many good
directions for seeding sweet clover are
given by catalogs and bulletins, that l

have had just as good results from
spring blowing as from fall blowing,
or summerfallow. In many pastures
blowing is impossible. Here we must
keep the rule in mind that the poorer
the seed bed, the more seed it takes.
At present prices the seed is too ex-
pensive to scatter at large in pas
ture. 1 have had results by digging
small pits six by six by two to three
inches deep and dropping few seeds
in each. Do not cover the seeds. Con-
venient places may be run over with a
breaking plow and the seed sown
broadcast. Sometimes sand storms
will cover small areas from adjacent
fields. This, too, may be taken ad-
vantage Of by seeding it to sweet
clover.
For general practice, however, the
most economical method will be for
each farmer to keep little field for

Among the things which will be
placed under the ban will be automo'

ments, cutlery of all kinds, hardware
yarns, chinaware, fancy goods and
soaps. The order will apply equally
TO all countries, including the British
dominions and colonies.
This forecast of the coming order IN
council was given in an interview by
Walter Runciman, president of the
board OF trade. Mr.. Runciman ad
mitted that articles in addition tc
those named would be placed on the
list of prohibited imports. but in ad
vance of the issuance of the order he
declined to say what they are. He
agreed that the decree would have
considerable effect on exports from
the United States, but pointed out that
1t applied to all countries alike, and
declared 1t was absolutely necessary
to limit the shipment of bulky luxur
les in order to provide room on ships
for necessaries.
