Of vile indecency. The lowest Of the

COMn1ERCl CLUB TO
COMPLETE ORGANIZATION

At the commercial club meeting
held Monday night at the Village
Hall, constitution was adopted and
it was decided to hold the first an
nual meeting for the election Of Of
fcers the first Monday in December,
which will be the last opportunity
for joining the organization as
charter member.
The spirit of interest shown in
the club is commendable and success
is assured. The membership of the
club will be at least thirty-five &C.
cording to one member of the COM
mittee on soliciting members.
The purpose of the club is to
boost for Grand Marais and Cook
county. 1t is the wish and duty of
every good citizen to do everything
in his power to promote the best
interests of his community. The
commercial club offers an organiza-
tion where merchant can met mer-
chant and banker can meet banker
and for the time being forget petty
questions that come up in their
competition and where they can con-
slider the problems that come up
that effect the community as a
whole. The club also offers an or
ganization for promoting social af-
fairs which are necessary in our
modern civilization.

BOOSTING FOR AMEND
MENT NUMBER Z

Sovereignty, or the right to gov
ern, vests and always has vested in
the people themselves. In a despot'
ism the monarch rules by sheer
might, due to a lack of understand.
ing, by the subjects of their real
power and their inability to coop.
crate to use it. Altho unused by
them, the right is theirs by natural
right.
In a republic SUCH as we have, the
power to rule is delegated to repre-.
sentatives. These representatives
supposedly and theoretically act as
the aggregate of those represented
would act. However, there are nc
strings upon them to compel them
to act in any given way. The most
that can be done is to replace the
delegate at the next election with
another whose capacity to assist in
enacting wholesome legislation may
be no greater than his predecessor
By this method the wit of the law
maker enters as largely into the law
making process as the necessities of
the people.
The needle of the compass of pro-
gress pointed toward real democra-
cy; a condition wherein those who
are ruled will do the ruling. In Cal
ifornia the Single Tax is about to be-
come an established fact thru the
simple expedient of placing the ini'
tiation of legislation into the hands
Of the people. Proposed Amend
ment Number Z, to be voted upon
November 7th, will provide for this
and in addition permit legislation
brought about by delegates to be
referred to the people for their ap-
proval.
A vote for this amendment is a
vote for democracy and progress;
a vote against it or failure to vote
is vote for conservatism and re-
action.

VARIETIES OF ALFALFA
Nine Fairly Distinctive Commercia| n
Strains-Adapted to Varying
Climatic Conditions

The increased interest in varieties
of alfalfa and the need for the far
mer to know whether a certain va
riety is suitable for his neighbor-
hood have led to the publication of
Farmers Bulletin 757 Commercial
Varieties of Alfalfa. The authors, R.
A. Oakley and H. L. Westover, of the
Bureau of Plant Industry, discuss in
detail the characteristics and habits
of the nine fairly distinctive COM
mercial strains of alfalfa now re-
cognized in the United States, to-
gether with their adoption to cli-
matte conditions. Some give the
best results in the North and North
west, while others succeed only in
the South and Southwest where the
winters are mild. Wherever possi-
BILE, the authors have indicated me-
thods of distinguishing one variety
from another.
Common Alfalfa" is a term that
is used to include all of the alfalfa
that are not clearly of hybrid origin
or that do not have distinct and uni
form varietal characteristics, such as
the Peruvian and Arabian varities.
Numerous strains are coming to be
recognized in the ''common" group.
They are often designated by the
geographic name of the locality
where grown, as Kansas-grown alfal-
ia, Montana-grown alfalfa, and many
others, or by some term descriptive
of the conditions under which the
crop has developed, such as dry-land
alfalfa, irrigated alfalfa, and nonir-
rigated alfalfa.
Strains developed in the South
usually produce larger yields than
those developed in the Northern
States, but they are less hardy. The
"dry-land" alfalfa offered on the
market has so far failed to show
any noticeable superiority in ability
to resist drought over that grown
with an abundance of moisture.
The commercial Turkestan alfalfa
has been tested quite thoroughly in
all parts of this country, and in
nearly every case has proved infer
ior to American grown strains.
The leading commercial strains of
variegated: alfalfa are the Grimm,
the Baltic, the Canadian variegated,
and sand lucern. With the excep-
tion of sand lucern, they have been
found more resistant to cold than
other commercial varities or strains
and are therefore recommended for
sections where winterkilling occurs
frequently.
Peruvian alfalfa is not resistant
to severe cold and can be grown sue
cessfully where the winter tempera-
ture is comparatively mild, as in the
Southern and Southwestern states.
Under favorable conditions it out
yields any other commercial strain.
Arabian alfalfa is not a satisfac-
tory variety because of it's tendency
to be short lived.
AS result of numerous expert
mental tests the adaptions of vari-
Gus varieties and strains of alfalfa
have been quite definitely determin-
ed
1t is highly advisable that the
farmer should learn to distinguish
good from poor seed. Plump seed
of an olive-green color almost invari-
ably terminates we'll, while shriveled
The Cook County news-herald. [volume] (Grand Marais, Cook County, Minn.) 1909-current, 1916-11-01

or brown seed generally terminates
poorly. The presence of any appre-
ciable quantity of weed seeds or
other impurities indicates poor
quality of seed.
Owing to the fact that alfalfa
does not produce seed satisfactorily
under humid conditions, there is lit
tie use in trying to grow it for seed
in the Eastern States.
Breeding work with alfalfa offers
great possibilities, but the time and
expense involved are so great that
a farmer cannot afford to undertake
it. 49,

The COMMERCIAL
CLUB BANQUET

About thirty citizens attended the
Commercial Club banquet on last
Thursday evening at the Paine Hotel.
The feast lasted from nine-thirty to
a little after midnight and after the
appetites of those present were ap-
peased in the many good things to
eat, Mr.. C. c. Monker, who acted as
toastmaster, made few appropriate
remarks, afterwards calling on others
who responded. S. c. Murphy, F. B.
Hicks, M. R. Beebe,. L. A. Simonson,
w. H. Ripon, Geo. H. Durfee, and
others made appropriate remarks.
The evening was a success in spite
of the inclement weather, and those
present went away with feeling of
an evening well spent.
