FRUIT A NECESSITY

NGELES. Leonard Keene
 A. D.. NJ A., M. D, John -1 ersity. writes as follows: 1its shall ye know peo- e- arly is this true at the HA the year, with it's cornu- o1@ able raw edibles.
 Fro-- -anhe, of the faculty of Medicine o- Paris. after an elaborate -eries of investigations and observa- ms confirms the popular notion that .rlit is more than a mere dessert and lEa-y. It is an absolute necessity in o dietary of an energetic person.
 ARa exclusive fruit diet like a diet
 rrtcied to vegetables, is too bulky TO severe q tax upon the digestive -A- Negetarians. fruitarians, those 1e -Sling to g ration which omits tl7r edibies, lose in initiative, orig -.ltE. creativeness and power.
 Coacentrated, nevertheless. in apples and 7other fruits are the powerful re- KS necessary in the eggs, seeds and rrsifai parts of living things. The ~rit ef a tree is the same as the egg
 'sl animal Plainly, all the stuff zzd to further an egg or seeds
 4epment is to be found in fruit
 Nfile the pumpkin, melon, canta- -pes eggplant, cucumber and water rolo,l are categoricalIy called vege- hiss. they are as much fruits as are aspeerries or apples.
 Prefessor Labbe has been able, after
 Esis, to place the nutritive capa-
 ES of fruits into five groups such
 isSh, sugar-rich fruits from which 7e tsones, such as apples and raisins, are ande acidulous, water fruits, fatty --its and starchy ones.
 Fruits rich in nutritive waters and H'ces are particularly apples, pears, -.uufs. spricots. nectarines, quinces, ,herries and berries. Pomegranates, Fooseberries. oranges. lemons and oineapples are also rich in sugar and water from to 10 per cent of sugar nay bc found in these fruits.
 Irrespective of their valuable food sualties, fruits lend entertainment to Inc menu. give zest to the appetite and -Criety to the table. Apples, from Sheepnoses to Pippins. stand very high A the list or fruits as human ration. They arc rich in sugar albumens. starches and mineral fertilizer, not to mention water and other necessary bod ingredients.
 While the ideal balanced ration is -f-cult to secure from fresh fruits lole they are needed in mars ali- neutary economy for vitamin and other necessities, which cannot be sup 'icd by other pabulum.
 Perhaps one of the most useful, val -lb-a and palatable of fruits is the apple It is decidedly less perishable han pears, peaches. grapes. apricots and other near relations and may, in a 'ashion, be compared with potatoes as -a all around nutritious article of the 2iet No table should go much longer nan a day without apples on the menu

HOW WE
 BUY
Our System of Buying

is sufficiently low that our dealers can in turn retail it to the public at prices within the reach of any in- come. We buy every commodity in carload lots.
 A casual glance at our four big banana rooms, full of banana fruit in the various stages of ripening, our cold storage room crowded with perishable produce, the car standing at our platform awaiting
 unloading and our spacious store- room filled to overflowing with the best the market affords, will give a fair example of the enormous business which we do and the big outlet which we have for quick sales.

Enthusiastic Y. M. C. A. Meeting

A meeting was held in the high
school auditorium last Saturday eve
ming under the leadership of some of
the prominent business men of Al
berta to arrange for soliciting the
Alberta districts part of the Y. M.
G. A. fund. L. P. NOrby, F. l..
Spaulding and L. M. Larson were ap-
pointed as a committee to look after
the work and chose solicitors for the
different districts comprising the
townships Of Scott, Synnes, Pepper
ton and Village of Alberta. Those
appointed to canvas Synnes were
Mr.. and Mrs. Rude JaIlO, Mr.. and
Mrs. Harry Groth, c. J. Eystad, Miss
Volden, Albert GRADER and Miss
Holmdahl. They reported coIlec-
ton of $135.86. The township of
Pepperton was covered by H. A.
Bach, Clarence Bach, George Heick
and Paul Andert They collected
$4,000
The village of Alberta and Scott
! township were covered by Walter
Farwell Glen Prickett, Sidney Gaus-
man, Odin Norby and James Spauld-
ing. They reported collection of
| $4,000 in the village of Alberta
and $49.50 in the township of Scott
making a total of $172.5O for AL
berta and Scott township, and a
grand total collected in the assigned
district of $428.36.
The quota assigned to the Alberta
district was $4,000 and the amount
was considerably oversubscribed
which shows the cooperation that
exists between the people of Alberta
and vicinity in beneficiary move
ments of all kinds whether it be 10
cal or nation wide as has been many
times shown in the past.

Calf Weighs III Pounds at Birth

The University Farm School has a
HOlstein heifer calf born Thursday
of last week that Prof. P. S. Jordan
of the farm school believes to be a
record breaker for weight at birth.
This calf weighed III pounds when
it was born last week and has gained
several pounds since. The calf is
heavier than some of the other
calves at the University farm school
that are three months old or more
The mother of the calf KOrndyke
Lady Glen Arts is a neice of Queen
Phoebe Mercedes the world record
four year old heifer, and was re
Gently purchased from E. G. Schroed-
er of Moorhead.
The agricultural school is also
| boasting of some of the fine quail
ties of their live stock particularly
the 100 spring pigs that were raised
there this year. Some of the pigs
althO only seven and one hall
months old weigh 275 pounds, more
! than pigs that are year or more
ANY pig that gains a pound a day
shows unusually good progress,
said Prof. Jordan. Fifty of oul
pigs now weigh $50 pounds anC
none are more than 21O days oud."

Does It Pay?

WilImar Republican Gazette
Does it pay? This question is often
asked by people who find someone
else buying something good, espe-
cially pure bred stock for the farm.
Generally a fair idea can be gained
by visiting a mans farm and look
ing over his live stock, buildings and
feel that it pays to keep good, pure
bred cattle, after attending the sale
At the CLAUS Anderson disposal of
his splendid herd of "a head, nearly
Ill pure bred animals.
The cattle we're the main feature
Of the sale, everything else receiv-
ing secondary attention, even the
coffee and lunch. Members of the
County HOlstein Breeders associa-
ton were on hand from every part of
the country and exhibited keen in
terest in the cattle and the bidding.
c. E. Patchins, a breeder of pure
bred Holsteins from GeorgeviIIe,
brought an auto lead of his friends.
Olaf Parsons of Raymond brought
Nels Parsons, a dairyman from
Mortified who bought one of the
best COWS in the herd for $500. E.
B. Heller, who has big dairy farm
just over the county line near
Paynesville, bought several head to
add to his herd. Albert J. Johnson
Of south of Svea was an active bid

Mr.. Anderson has been a breeder
of purebred HOlsteins for only ten
years. This would give encourage
ment to those who are just starting
by way of showing what can be &C
complished in just few short years
of careful breeding, feeding and
selection. Mr.. Anderson produced
nearly all Of his herd on his own
farm.
The total amount of sale Wednes-
day was $1,000, one of the largest
ever held in this county. 1t was all
over with and settled for at five
thirty due to the fact that everything
was ready and to the rapid fire of
Mr.. Davis, the auctioneer. Mr.. An
derson leaves the farm owing to
Mrs. Anderson's poor health and to
the loss of his son, Paul, who was
his mainstay. Paul was drafted and
is now at Camp Dodge, Ia. Another
son, Miner, and family have leased
the farm.

This year, however, those patrio-
tic farmers who desire to do their
part to increase the poultry and egg
supplies will find it desirable to re-
tain a considerable proportion of the
yearling hens. Farmers in the corn
belt especially will find it to their
interest to hold all the good yearling
hens they have, making such addi-
ton to their poultry house equip
ment as may be necessary to proper
ly accommodate both pullets and
hens. Overcrowding must be avoid
ed, as neither pullets nor hens will
do their best.
In selecting hens to keep over,
preference should be given to those
that mott in September or later, for
they areas a rule-the most per-
sistent layers. Such hens may not
be at this time the best looking in
the flock. They are likely to be
rough in plumage with somewhat
shriVeled combs and pale colored
legs. These things, however, are
merely incidental to the non-laying
