RED CROSS SEALS

Many hundreds of thousands
of soldiers in the great war have
been sent home from the trench
es wounded not by bullets but by
tuberculosis. In France alone
$4,000 were thus retired.
Thousands of Minnesotans
examined this year for the Army
were found to be unsupported
cases of tuberculosis. In times
Of peace tuberculosis is the dis
ease which kills the most people
and is one of the chief causes of
poverty. In time of war it is
our double enemy and it must be
fought double hard. 1t is pre-
ventable and durable if taken in
time. This is a time of emergen-
cy for all of us. Every state,
every county and every town is
expected to do it's part.
Buy Red Cross Seals gen.
erously and you will be doing
your bit toward solving the pro-
blem of disease which this coun-
try must face during and after
the war. We do not want to be
hampered in our reconstruction
by the inroad of tuberculosis.
Red Cross Seals give every man,
woman and child in this COM
munity chance to do his bit.
No one can refuse for any ex-
cuse Of poverty as seals are 1c
each. They are cheap but very
effective ammunition in the
present war.

Pine County Poultry Show at
Brook Park Dec. 11.12-13

One thing of great Importance,
and should be looked forward to
by every house wife in the coun-
ty, is the poultry canning demon
stration which will be put on one
day at the poultry show by
skilled persons from the state
university, just which day. can
not be stated at this time, as
the arrangements are not fully
completed, it is also the aim of
the management to have a good
live poultry talk by a specialist
from the state university.
At the show last year there
were exhibited nearly five hum
dred choice birds, this year will
far exceed that as the entrys are
open to the world for two in
each class. as follows: Two cock
birds, two cockerels, two hens and
two pullets. This will bring to
our show some Of the best birds
in the universe, and it also gives
Pine County exhibitors the ad-
vantage of the fancy breeders.
as Pine county has no limit on
the entries, that is. can enter as
many as they wish in each class,
and have chances to win enough
premiums to make expenses and
better, even tho first and second
goes to the outsiders. Everyone
should plan on attending this
show at least one day, it will be
time well spent to see these
choice birds that are sure to be
there from all parts of the coun-
try. N. Beechel. secretary.

BuRNQuIST GUEST
OF Pine COUNTY
Rousing Meeting Held at Hinck-
ley Friday Evening
AskOy Band Assists.

The patriotic meeting and re-
ception at Hinckley last Friday,
at which time Governor Burn
quist was the guest of honor,
was attended by people from all
parts of the county. Patrick's
hall, in which place the meeting
was held, was literally packed,
and standing room was at a
premium.
The Governor and Mrs. Burn
quist had come there to visit his
sister, Miss Mabel Burnquist,
who is assistant principal of the
Hinckley high school, and at the
same time was induced to give a
patriotic speech.
| The Hinckley Home Guards
and the Askov Band went to the
Butterick home, where the Gov
ernor was a guest, and escorted
him and his party to the hall,
where the crowd was awaiting
his arrival.
When the Governor was intro
duced by Chairman Pryor a cheer
that almost lifted the roof off
the building went up and all rose
to their feet in honor Of Mr..
Burnquist. The Home Guards
lead in giving three cheers.
The short. but good patriotic
speech that Mr.. Burnquist then
gave was absorbed eagerly by
everyone. His remarks were to
the point and every word he said
meant something. Among other
things, he said, that any one in
public office if not loyal to his
country should be removed from
office and he added that he
would even remove his own sis
ter as teacher in public schools
if she were not. loyal to her coun-
try. had he the power to do it.
After Mr.. Burnquist's speech
Mayor G. L. Jack called upon the
old standby and friend Of every
body in Pine County. j. Adam
Bede. to make q few remarks,
and this "Jadam' did to the
satisfaction Of everyone. IN fact
he had some people laughing 80
heartily that they were still
laughing from the effects Of the
first joke when he had COM
lpleted the second one. He even
had the Governor stamping his
foot.
/ After the meeting was closed
an informal reception was held
at the school building where
everybody had an opportunity to
shake hands with the Governor
and Mrs. Burnquist. Miss Burn
quist and several Of Hinckley's
L y .t
citizens. Light refreshments
were also served.

friends call him. in addition to
the above title. THE Joseph

The Philadelphia Public Led
ger last week contained biogra-
phical sketch of Anders Furu-
seth, the Norwegian sailor who
last year put a bill through con-
gress which not only compelled
ship owners to pay more wages
but to put more men on their
ships. The federal shipping
board has. repeatedly conferred
with Mr.. Furuseth regarding the
wages and living condition of
the sailors, and he has the re-
putation that he has never been
known to break his word. He
came from Norway to San Fran
cisco about thirty years ago.
The SEVENTEEN birthday of
Henry L. Hertz, a Dane, who has
been coroner of Chicago. and col
lector of internal revenue for
Cook county, Illinois. was cele-
brated last week. Numerous
friends from Chicago and distant
cities were present, and a large
number of congratulary mes
sages were received from all
parts of the country. At one
time Mr.. Hertz was one of the
leading Republicans in Cook
county. He has been identified
with a number Of Danish cultur-
al movements and enjoys a coun-
try-wide popularity.
On the 28th day of this month
the three Scandinavian kings
met at Christiania, Norway, to
further discuss those problems
of war which are vital to the
continued neutrality of the
north. The Danish and Swedish
kings were accompanied by
their premiers and foreign min
listers who will participate in the
negotiations. 1t is understood
that much attention will be paid
to the embargo on exports which
Great Britain and the United
States have carried into effect.
There is a tendency to make the
embargo less stringent than
originally planned, and this is
said to be due to the work of
special Scandinavian missions
which have spent several months
at Washington-The Danish
government is contemplating the
issuing of a blanket prohibition
against the expectation of pork,
butter and eggs. The measure
lis not intended to interfere with
the export which is continuing
at present of amounts under dis
pensations, but to give the gov
ernment an effective weapon to
be used in negotiations to obtain
compensatory importations of
wares and raw materials. A
Stockholm message carries the
information that the Swedish
minister of finance, Hjalmar
Branting, is planning a lecture
tour thru this country for the
purpose of trying to convince
America that Sweden is not a
pro-G German country. Mr.. Brant-
ing is the leading Social Demo-
crat Of his country and his
political influence is said to be
more far-reaching than that of
any other man in public life in
Sweden at the present time.

SEEDING WINTER WHEAT;
VIRGINIA EXPERIMENTS

| BLACkSBURG. VAL. July 22-T. X
wife, assistant agronomist, Virginia
experiment stations, says as to the
proper time for seeding winter grains:
Are your wheat. oats. rye and
barley yields as large as they should
be? Meximum yields of winter grains
depend mostly upon climate. seeded
preparation. selection and treatment
OF seed. fertilization and time Of seed
ing. The date of seeding winter cereals
largely governs their power to resist
winter killing. and also influences the
Eieid. III winter grains are seeded too
early they are often attacked by in
sect pests. il seeded too late, injury
from winter killing occurs.
experiments conducted at the Vtr-
GINA experiment station, reported In
circular No. 3. show some interesting
results in regard to the time during
Wheat seeded September Is produced
1915 bushels an acre; September 80.
2o.2O bushels; October Is. 1852 bushels:
october 80. $50 bushels. From the re-
suits 1t seems that wheat should be
seeded about the first of October. to
secure maximum yields. However, on
account of injury that is likely to re-
suit from HeSsian fly in early seeded
wheat. seedlings should not be made
until after the first heavy frost At
the Virginia experiment station, in a
year when the fly was especially bad.
IS per cent of the wheat stalks in the
plat seeded on September 15. were
infested. SO per cent OF those sown
September so, and October Is. and only
80 per cent of those sown October
80. This clearly shows that late seed
ings will reduce the fly injury. At the
same time late seeding will cause the
plants to be less resistant to winter
killing. Thus. date must be decided
upon which will be too early for Sc
we're winter killing and too late for
much injury from the fly.
- oats seeded September Is produced
3o.64 bushels an acre: September 80,
2S.o6 bushels; October Is. 1892 bushels:
October 50.2.54 bushels. 1t is clearly
shown that oats must be seeded early.
observations show that oats seeded
earlier than September IS, gives the
best yields. This crop is not injured
by the Hessian fly, and warm weather
in the fall. but is easily winter killed.
rye seeded September Is produced
1880 bushels an acre; September 30
1910 bushels; October 15,1S.54 bushels:
October 80. 1855 bushels In order TO
obtain the highest yields, rye should
ne so"n about October l. The yield OF
or rye is not limited by the time of
seeding to the same extent as that of
wheat and oats. Rye may be seeded as
late as the middle Of November and
produce good yields.
Barley has not been a success al this
station. but from results obtained. II
should be sown about the first Of Oc-
tooer. September Is seeding gave 1929
bushels an acre; September 80, 1882
bushels; October Is. 1910 bushels: Oc-
tober 80, 1o.2s bushels
Note: as these tests were made in the
Alleghany section of the State. the
oates OF seeding recommended are
probably earlier than the best datee for
Piedmont and Tidewater Virginia
Dates ten to fifteen days later are
likely to give the best results east Of
the Blue Ridge
