BIG C|RCUSES AID
NAVY RECRUITING

Through the cooperation Of the two
largest travelling circuses in America
the navy is to have invaluable and
widespread help in recruiting in all
parts of the country. Wherever the
big white tents are spread and the
crowds gather for circus day, Uncle
Sans officers and representatives
will be there to recruit, to give out
information, to answer questions and
distribute literature. No organization
in the amusement world is so close
to the people and so thoroughly Amer
lean as the circus and this patriotic
service on the part of the owners of
the big shows is highly thought or by
navy officials and believed to be a
campaign that will bring forth results
in all parts of the country.
John Ringing for the Barnum &c
Bailey circus and Charles Ringing,
his brother for the Ringing Brothers
circus, have given to Commander K.
M. Bennett, officer in charge of the
U. S. Navy Publicity Bureau, New
York city, every cooperating help to
make this possible.

New Statute Brings Trouble to Rev.
SchoenfeId; Had Nearly Nine
Times Legal Days Catch

A minister of the gospel is the first
person apprehended for violation of
the Huber law, which opened the fish
ing season May /.
He lis Rev. B. F. Schoenfeld of Park
Falls, Price county On Saturday fore
noon last, the parson went forth with
his bait and rod, in search Of the
finny tribe.
During the morning Mr.. Schoenfeld
caught six muskellonge, weighing a
total of so pounds. During the month
of May, the total catch for one person
in day is set at 10 pounds. Not con-
tent with his mornings work, or else
the sport had an Irresistible lure, Rev.
Schoenfeld went out again during the
afternoon. He, caught two more mus
kies, big fellows, together weighing %
pounds, making total of SO pounds
for the days catch.
A warden got on Mr.. Schoenfeld's
trail and on Sunday arrested him. On
Monday the court fined the greedy
fisherman $25 and costs. From the
fish still in Rev. Schoenfeld's posses
sion on Sunday, six quarts of eggs
were taken. Figures furnished by the
conservation commission show that six
quarts amount to 100000 eggs.
The loss of this amount of eggs is
only an indication of the loss to fish
conservation that will be suffered by
the state as result of the earlier
opening of the season. All violations
of the 10-pound restriction will be
prosecuted and punished in drastic
fashion, according to the conserva-
ton commission.

BIG SLUMP IN
WINTER WHEAT
According to the Government Re-
port There VIII Be the Smallest
Yield in Thirty Years

The winter wheat crop, planted last
autumn on one of the largest acreages
ever sown to that grain, but which
met disaster in several important pro-
ducing states from severe winter con-
ditions, now promises a harvest of
336,116,000 bushels this year. That
quantity was forecast yesterday by
the department of agriculture, which
based its estimate on the condition of
the crop on May 1, as reported by the
thousands of agents throughout the
grain belt. A month ago a crop of $780,
100000 bushels was forecast. Produc-
ton last year was S1,744,000 bushels
and in 1915 it was 673,947, 900 bushels.
The following is more extended re-
port.

A lot of well-meaning folks think
that just because certain materials

of food for humans, that it is waste"
and of no value for stock feed. Nothing
is further from the truth. In very
many cases. the so-called "offaP' left
after the manufacture of -four, malt
ing, corn products, breakfast foods,
ETC., are the best of stock feeds, and
can be bought economically and fed to
bring profit to t. e farmer The man
who turns up his nose at the thought
of combining by-products with silage
and other low-priced meat producing
foods, is behind the times and usually
fails to show even interest on his mon
ey at the end Of the year. Feeding
whole grain, whether it be corn.
wheat, rye or oats, is wasteful and is
robbing man of his rightful preroga-
tive-that of taking that part of all
grain adapted to his needs. 1t is easy
to find out the protein content of any
article, or mixture, of stock feedstuffs
now on TIE market, and it is merely a
matter of the farmer figuring out the
worth of the foods on their nourishing
power, and then to purchase that

/ INSURE YOUR CORN
Don't Gamble With Your Corn Crop.
Test Every Ear Before Planting.
Every Weak or Dead Ear Means
Dollars Less at Harvest.


: Dollars Less at Harvest.
National Crop Improvement Ssrvlcs.l
1t is a known fact that the simple
little act of testing all seed corn be-
fore planting will add many bushels to
the corn crop and will pay the farmer
about five times as much per hour Tor
his labor as will any other farm labor.
There is nothing hard about it, all
methods of testing seed corn are easy
and inexpensive. You can test the kerr
nels in blotters or "rag-dolp' testers
at home, making them yourself, or
you cali invest in commercial test
er that will last for years. Your agri-
cultural college, county agent, or the
U. S. Department of Agriculture at
Washington will be glad to- give you
full particulars.
Seed testing will stop one Of these
leaks in farm practice that change
gain into loss.~ Figure out for yourself
how many hills the six or seven hum
dred kernels of corn from dead or
weak ear will plant, and figure out
how your corn yield will drop If two OF
tree, or dozen, or maybe fifty such
ears should get planted.

SOME OF
THE WAR

Italy is putting up a splendid
fight, and says she has the men and
the food for whipping Austria if she
can only get metals fast enough to
make guns and load them.
The French and English say they
can stand the Germans off at all
points and back them up in places,
but they need metals to make guns
and cartridges. They have captured
artillery steadily for two years with
out losing any, but must keep on
making cannon rapidly to owe the
waste and loss of war. The German
man-power is waning, and they are
no longer able to shift troops rapid
ly as before. indicating scarcity Of
men and bad condition Of the roads
and rolling stock.
The northern neutral countries of
Europe are now deprived of ship
ments of foods so they will have to
quit shipping it to Germany. The
Germans are moving heaven and
earth to overturn Russia so they can
draw ON the food supplies of that
empire, but Russia is holding them
back, even with their half-loyal and
disheartened troops. There were
times when the Russian troops had
only one rife to six men, and the
other five were stopping German bull
let's while waiting for a chance to
use the gun. That condition has
passed now, and the Russian NUM-
tions are sent to the Russian soldiers
instead of to the Germans via the
weak points in the line.
In the high councils Of the allies,
they are planning to rush more
foods and metals from America and
less men. Ships are needed for
transportation. and in the choice be-
tween shipping materials or men, the
allies cry for materials. In the old
en- time at the battle of Bunker Hill,
the defenders of liberty had enough
men, but in the lull of battle and
during the bayonet charge against
them they were shouting, "For Gods
sake POWDER"
For three years the Germans have
been dropping bombs from airships
on the non-combatants of England,
and the British have at last con-
scented to retaliate on the German
people. For a long time England
has refrained from doing this for
fear the Germans would torture
English prisoners now in their pos
session.
1t is said that a million tons of
war materials are awaiting shipment
from American ports, and another
million tons lie in warehouses and
in the open at V~aldivastok awaiting
transportation via the Siberian rail-
road to the eastern front. And all
the while, tonnage is arriving as fast
as it can be shipped.
