Robinson Circus
Comes to Town

What promises to be the big circus
event in Richmond is the visit OF the
John Robinson Shows on April q.
For some reason or other 1t has
been some years since Richmond has
been included in the itinerary of this
wellknown organization. which is said
to have been greatly increased In size
and dimensions for 1917.
Judging by press eulogies from other
cities where the big combination has
appeared since leaving winter quar-
tiers at Americas, Ca. the performance
which now utilities four circus rings
and two stages is of remarkable excel
lence and entirely free from the tire
some repetition SO often seen in this
form of amusement.
The aerial acts, riding, racing and
hippodrome features are of an unusual
ly exciting and thrilling nature, well
calculated to arouse the enthusiasm
and appreciation of spectators.

good yields of asparagus from year to
year, the field must not only be cared
for during the cutting season but dur
ing the summer as we'll. AS aspara-
gus is usually planted in rows to
feet apart, there is ample room be-,
tween the rows for companion crop
ping after the cutting season. The
cultivation and fertilization of the
companion crop will be of equal value
to the asparagus and will also give
some returns from the ground that
would otherwise be unused. Such
crops as the black eye peas, soy beans,
bush lima and string beans, late cab
bage, tomatoes, and Irish potatoes are
very valuable as companion crops in
asparagus growing. Beans and peas
are especially we'll suited for this pur-
pose, as they are soil builders thus
giving two sources frevenue. A
good crop of peas may be harvested
and the vines worked into the soil
during late summer by use of disk
harrow. Clean cultivation combined
with companion cropping thruout the
year, thus adding botE humus and
nitrogen to the soil, will improve
rather than cause the plants to de-
terioate.

Critics who think the Presidents peace
message has done nothing toward bring
ing the war to an end have small under
standing of human nature. Men who
rule the destinies of the belligerent ma
lions may buster and decry the settle
ment of an inconclusive war, but the
idea, having once been launched, will
prevail. 1t is most natural that every
nation should declare itself able to fight
on indefinitely. No matter how eager
either or both parties may be to have
peace, it would be folly to confess it. It
is therefore to- be expected that there
will be an interplay of wits before any
conclusion is reached. Diplomats will
handle the question exactly as traders
in the market agree upon price, offering
far less than they are willing to give and
refusing less than they are willing to
take. So long as diplomats discuss
peace and so long as the people think
peace, there can be no doubt that the
nations are drawing together.

NIcOLLET COUNTY FARM
AGENT MAY BE RETAINED

There is q movement on foot in Nci.
ollet county to retain the county agent
recently deposed by the Board Of County
Commissioners, according to the St
Peter Free Press. The plan is to nav sa
for his services by private subscription
and the money is now being raised 70,
that purpose. The expense Of count,
agent is paid partially by the county
and the balance by the state. Frank
Osborne, president Of the Farm Bureau
Association Of Nicollet county, has call
ed three meetings to be held this week
that the farmers may discuss the matter
thoroughly. The first was held yester.
day at the court house in st. Peter.
another is called for today at the eleva.
tor at Nicoollet, and the third will be
held tomorrow at Anderson's Hall,
Lafayette. Mr.. Osborne says that to
drop the county agent would be step
backward in agricultural devoelpment
in that county.
The Lafayette Ledger says the time
and energy of those opposing and in
favor Of retaining the county agent in
circulating petitions for and against
his retention, prior to the recent meeting
OF the board We're wasted, as the new
commissioners had pledged themselves
to vote against the agent, and were
elected on that issue.

NeW Mayor Is Emphatic

Thomas Van Lear, the first Socialist
mayor of Minneapolis, is decidedly en-
phatic in his declaration for strict
enforcement Of law for that city. Mr..
Van Lear took possession of his Office a
little more than a week ago, and at once
his influence began to be felt. His first
move was to inform the people of the
Mill City that in the conduct of his
Office and of the police department all,
rich and poor; the prominent, as well as
the obscure, would be treated exactly
alike; that vice would be stamped out;
that not only the dive keeper but the.
owner Of the property would be prose-
cuted.
.sWhen enforce the law, I'll get the,
big fellows as well as the immoral
woman" Mr. Van Lear told his hearers
at a big civic dinner. IF you want me
to enforce the law to the letter be pre-
pared to take the consequences. It is
easy to enforce the law on the common
people; they are accustomed to obey.
But if we go farther than that we run
against the best citizens, members Of
those churches whose pastors advocate
law enforcement, and they block and
Illustrate our attempts. When this
clement hold meetings to discuss law

they themselves break the law. Some

In his proclamation issued the follow
ing day, the new mayor declared him
self practically along the same lines,
insisting that strict enforcement OF
the law would be made, and especially
against the social evil Mayor Van
Lear, through his new chief of police,
has placed the responsibility Of law en-
forcement on each patrolman.
Not only Minneapolis, but the entire
state, will watch with a great deal Of
interest Mayor Van Lear's administrat-
ton, and all hope that he not only sue
! ceeds in stamping out social vice but that.
