When land is plowed in the
fall the crop Of insects, cutworms,
etc., will be greatly diminished
and this will be noticeable upon
the next crop that is put into the
ground. Years ago farmers plowss
ed whenever they had the time,
whether fall or spring, but ma
jority of farmers have been taught
that fall blowing is advisable.
Take for instance insects. Their
aim is to burrow very deeply down
into the soil 50 that the thawing
and freezing during the winter
will not affect them in the least.
The blowing Of the land in the
fall Of the year will turn these in
sects up on top Of the ground or
so near the surface that the dry
ing and freezing out of the soil
will kill large numbers of them
and in this way the crop planted
next year will not be affected by
them in the least.

The master bakers are now

bread than the farmer who raises
the wheat.

Farmers should make the grow

if wheat will ever sell low, again,
as it was before this war. 1t
is not the war which is keep

it was supposed that his name
and long standing fame would
carry him up with the leaders.
But even in German communi-
ties his vote was light, and in
Stearns county he was fourth
man. The German press had
urged support Of Clapp because
Of his vote on the Gore resolu-
ton, but his attitude on prohi-
bition and woman suffrage was
too much for the German-Amer-
lean voters. They also gave less
aid to the Eberhart candidacy
than usual. Kellogg got big
German vote, showing that his
frank declarations were not dis
pleasing to the people Of that
nationality.
The general feeling in the
state is that Knute Nelson and
Kellogg will make a strong team
in the senate, and if Hughes is
elected president, Minnesota will
be decidedly on the map at
Washington. No man in the
west is any closer to Mr.. Hughes
today than Frank B. Kellogg

KELLOGG'S SUCCESS

Frank B. Kellogg's task seems
light. Dan w. LAWYER is an able
campaigner, but he does not
make any appeal to republican
or to independent votes, and is
not likely to get better than the
normal democratic support.
Some of that is lukewarm, or
ready to knife him quietly.
There are two big factors in
Kellogg's primary success. One
was his sturdy campaign stand
for preparedness and vigorous
Americanism, which struck the
popular chord. The other was
the idea of "a big man for big
jjob," which appealed to thou
sands of voters. Men of many
minds on minor issues got to-
gether on Kellogg, because they
wanted strong representation at
Washington. This idea was driv-
en- home continually in the pub
lefty campaign promoted Dy
Charles J. Moos. Himself a firm
believer in effective use Of print
er's ink, Mr.. Moos demonstrated
it's efficacy.
The Kellogg. landslide swept
almost everything. AS usual in
a victory Of this sort, there was
little difference between the vot-
ers of the city and the country,
of the north and Of the south.
The drift was to Kellogg every
where. He carried Ramsey coun-
ty in spite of all predictions to
the contrary. Hennepin, where
he expected to do little better
than break even, he carried by
more than 5000. He carried
Blue Earth, former home of A.
O. Eberhart, and ran at the
head of the ticket in nearly ev-
cry county.
Senator Clapp's showing was
worse than expected. Though
on the surface he seemed weak,

GLADSTONE'S ONE PUN

It is not generally known that
Gladstone once in his life made
a pun. When Blondin appeared
at the Crystal palace he went
to see the acrobat and remarked
that the performance was very
interesting to a chancellor of
the exchequer as an example of
Observation-Disclosures Standard.
