THE FALL GARDEN

We have become so accustomed to
thinking that spring is the only time
garden crops can be planted that
very few people make use of the fall
garden
III conditions are favorable, that
Is the soil is moist and the autumn
not too short it is possible to plant
at this time certain garden crops and
grow an abundance of fine, crisp,
tender vegetables for fail use.
These factors must be considered:
l. The soil must be mellow and
moist,
?. Thin as soon as the plants are
we'll up.
.. Cultivate and irrigate frequent
ly if the soil is dry.
I. Sow only early vegetables.
3. Firm the soil around the seeds.
There is not a large list of vege-
tables that can be sown at this time
but the few that can. will give good
returns under favorable copditio,s

In sections where farmers need to
secure seed wheat from districts out
side their own, it would be we'll to
look into the seed situation as early
as possible. One should have pretty
clearly in mind the variety that he is
to grow and where the very best
quality of that particular seed may
he obtained If it is a section in
which winter varieties do well, he
should be sure to get enough and at
once, to SOW a large proportion to
winter rather than spring grain.
In case something should go wrong
with the winter grain, he still has
another chance to get a crop of
spring grain later. However, in most
instances his fall grain would likely
yield better than spring grain if
sown under the proper conditions.

NEW APRON

Among the many new apron pat
terms there is one which is extremely
simple and practical, and just the
thing to wear when doing the family
mending. 1t is made of two large
pieces of white dotted swiss, cut
round at the bottom and sewed to-
gether at the edge. A slit is made
in the center of the front piece from
the waistband to within eight inches
Of the bottom The edges of the
opening are hemmed. This forms
an apron which is also an enormous
pocket, in which the sewing materials
may be placed-out of reach of
baby's inquisitive little fingers.

THEY WORSHIP IN UNITY
NORWEGIAN LUTHERANS HOLD
CONSOLIDATION CONCLAvE
Westby Scene of Their Brotherly Love
-Four Days Convention-Big
Harmony Gathering


| Christian spirit of forgiveness mani
fest in the uniting of the different
branches of the Norwegian Lutheran
church after forty years of division
and turmoil. Like warriors who have
buried their animosities the elements
dwelt in peace and good fellowship at
the district consolidation convention
held in Westby last Thursday till Sun
day. The Censor is under obligation
| to Rev ]. J. jacobson for the follow
ing report of the gathering:
NORWEGIAN CIRCUIT ORGANIZE
| Bishop Halvorson of Westby was
/ the Norwegian Lutheran Church's ap-
pointee to call together this circuit
of the Eastern district for its organ
| izing convention. He invited the cir
cult to meet for said purpose in his
! fine church at Westby on November
! 2, 3 and A. 1t was decided to call
this division of the Eastern district
of the Norwegian Lutheran church of
America the Vernon Circuit" or sub
district. This division comprises the
churches of thirteen pastors, most of
them in Vernon county-eleven of
these pastors being present and their
churches represented by a delegation
of forty. The officers elected are:
President-Rev. o. S. Rondestvedt
of Westby.
Vice-president-Rev. A H. Eikjar-
I'D of Cashton.
Treasurer-Mr. l. N. Knudson of
Coon Valley.
Secretary-Rev. J. j. jacobson of
Viroqua.
The young peoples question was
considered a vital issue and plans
were initiated for the organizing of a
young peoples league within the cir
cult. The most important action in
this respect is that provision was
made to secure a competent man,
whose entire time shall be devoted to
the furtherng of good choral and
church singing.
The devotional topic of the conven-
ton was ably presented by Bishop
Halvorson. His outline was accept
ed as a guide in the discussion con-
tinued
On Sunday morning Rev. Norby of
Lacrosse, president of the eastern dis
triet Of the church, gave a splendid
reformation sermon. In the after
moo at two, Prof Gimmestad, of the
Galesville academy, gave an inspiring
and instructive address as to the
fruits and results of reformation. The
Sunday evening session was a
young peoples hour, where three of
the visiting pastors gave brief talks
pertaining to young peoples work
and plans.
At all the Sunday sessions there
was good quartet and chorus singing
Rev. Otterson of West Salem sang
few fine solos.
The ladies of the church and town
gave good account of themselves at
all meal sessions where splendid re-
pasts were served Friday was the
local Red Gross day, when it's men,
bers III Red Cross head gear served
dinner and O'Clock lunch in the
church parlors, thus swelling the Red
Cross treasury by good 500.

ON commission basis. Dummy entry
men have been used to acquire the lands
Fees of from 800 to $4,000 have been
collected and a get-rich- quick Wall
ingford scheme has been carried on.
The lease matter has been smoulderlng
| for some years and was not uncovered
fully until the present land board came
into office. This board sent its ap-
praisers into the tier of southeastern
| counties where there are large areas of
dry farm lands suitable for cultivation
to get the facts. What they reported
was revelation. 1t was found that
there is danger of a great monopoly of
the states holdings by few people
getting a corner on them. This would

ton of the state that it is claimed
| would make some of the European coun-
tries blush. The agents found members
of one family had as high as 5000 acres
of the land monopolized One appraiser
reports the condition to be shameful.
He says there is grating in connection
with the leasing of the lands and favor
| tism of the rankest kind was shown by
former administrations. Under the law
an individual may lease but 800 acres
of dry farm lands. This land formerly
constituted the great sheep range of the
southeast, Gradually the settlers have
taken it up for dry farming, raising
large crops from it every year This
forced the sheep men off of most of the
lands which soon became very profitable
for crops and was in demand. After
the settlers came in many of them found
that they could not afford the expense
| of breaking the lands to put in crops,
when scientific tests showed that better
returns were available every other year.
This resulted in large holding companies
being formed which purchased the
! necessary machinery to break up the
lands for the farmers. Abuses are said
then to have followed, for the holding
companies took over lands leased by
individuals, combined their lands and
soon came into control of vast areas
One company has tract 10 miles long
and six miles wide,
In the meantime spectators and land
sharks got busy. They worked up a
business of locating parties on state
lands for commissions, many of which
were very high and which the farmers
had to pay. Then the use of dummy en-
