MAY GALL OFF INAUGURATION
Officials Believe That Wilson Would
Like Quiet Affair Owing to Pres
~. ent Critical Situation.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3-While no
decision has been reached officially,
there has been very decided antici-
patton in all official quarters to abol-
ish the ceremonies of Inauguration
and simply have the president take
the oath of Office in the white house
IN Sunday, March 4th. The army and
navy reception at the white house will
probably be abandoned
Those officials who favor abandon
ing the public ceremonies feel that
with the president facing such critical
international affairs the good of the
country demands that he shall not be
called upon to participate in public
functions.
The matter has not been taken ul
with the president himself. Robert
N. Harper, chairman of the inaugural
committee, said tonight that abandon
ment of the ceremonies had not beer
considered and that he did not believe
there had been any serious discussi u
Of it among higher officials.

ONIONS BUILD TWO HOUSES

Fire, which in 1914 burned to the
ground his new $4,000 home just as he
was about to move into it, didn't put
Joseph Sedlacek, of st. Ansgar, down
and out.
He simply planted his usual IL acres
Of onions and from the profits OF the
patch built another home, better than
ever on his so acre farm three miles
out from St. Ansgar. Onions, then,
have built two houses for him.
Mr.. Sedlacek doesn't raise onions
alone. He combines hogs, corn and in
tensive crops. He raises corn and oats
and clover like other farmers and pro
duces and feeds hogs. But, he, also
puts in about 10 acres Of potatoes each
year and year after year patch OF IL
| acres Of oniCns. From this, in 1916
| he shipped Is carloads Of bulbs.
After his unfortunate experience in
1914, in which his $4,000 home, com
plete and modern. was destroyed, Mr.
Sedlacek was undecided whether tt
build his next house in town or on the
farm, He finally decided upon the lat
ter. Onions grown in 1916 paid fol
the second house, as onion profits dit
| for the first one.

DRUGGIST HELPS PEOPLE SPRAY

SNS S~'Ss' ''~'-'
An enterprising druggist Of Ames
has unique cooperative scheme,
which enables the people Of his com
munity to wage an inexpensive fight
against orchard and garden insect
pests an.s the sans. lt'. e time gsnumers'
b last sst' var Y z he bought a wen made
portable spraying outfit, costing about
$50. This he rents for nominal
charge or lets out with man to run it
at little more than the cost Of the
labor In this way, without owning an
outfit, anyone in or near town can
clean up the potato beetles and cab
bage worms or spray his fruit trees
or climbing roses and shrubbery quick
Iy and at small price. For the aver
age home place, buying spraying out
fit is rather a costly Investment. This
druggists scheme solves the problem.
1T would be a good plan If this idea
were adopted by other dealers over
the state" says the extension truck
crops man at Iowa State college.
Small dust poison machines that can
be had for two or three dollars could
be let out in the same way. A druggist
could afford to let these out to anyone
buying supplies of him at reasonable
charge.

Grow 400 Bushels Onions on Sod Acre

Four hundred bushels of onions to
the Iacre were secured by the superi1-
tendent Of the consolidated school at
Superior, Dickinson county, on ground
that had never before grown any crop
other than native grass. This ground
was, plowed in the spring of 1915, was
disked and narrowed at intervals dur
ing the season and was then planted
to onions in 1916. Being practically
weedless because of the treatment
given it the year before. the work of
caring for the onions was very light
and altho no manure was used, the
above highly profitable crop was
grown.

ALLIES HERE
SEEKING men

Attired in the picturesque uniform
of the Scottish troops, Captain A. L,
Brown, of the Canadian BLACK Watch
regiment, was in Richmond Wednes-
day calling upon British subjects of
military age to urge them to enlist in
their country's service. Captain Brown
found fifteen young Britons and it is
probable that the majority of them
will enlist in the British army.
Captain Brown made the trip to
Richmond in a gaily decorated automo-
bile and was accompanied by an Amer
ican officer, Lieutenant Whitacre, and
by a French officer, Captain Henri
Hay. These uniformed representa-.
tives of the three great allied powers
attracted much attention while in this
city
Captain Brown states that since con-
gress recently authorized the recruit.
