McGOvern Withdraws

We are pleased to announce that T.
f. McGovern of Milwaukee has with
drawn his candidacy for the L. S.
senatorship before the Wisconsin pri-
mary March 10Th. This is one of the
most sensible acts that we have known
McGovern to do since he left the
Governors chair Such good judg-
ment is more than we thought he pos
sessed. His actions for several years
has been such that his former friends
had come to the conclusion that he
had lost his trolley which produced
good judgment, but in this act he has
retrieved himself. Lenroot in his can
didacy needs a united Republican
party to win. We sincerely hope that
he will now receive it and be the Re
publican nominee for senator, f. E.
McGovern has made friends in with
drawing his candidacy in favor of

City Election

As the city election time approaches
more candidates are coming into the
field for favors. The candidacy of
Chas. E. Briere for mayor makes a
new alignment of candidates with
other interests outside the city admin
istration Mayor E. w. Ellis naturally
has the interest support and good will
of good administration. They be-
ieve he has given a good administra-
ton Of public affairs and they want
him to have another term. This is
perfectly naturally and right. On the
other hand there is a strong feeling
for change in favor of retrenchment
and economy all along the line. The
dry and wet campaign coming up at
this time will divide the following of
each candidate in spite of the fact that
one is in favor of the dry side of the
liquor question while the other is in
dependent. Mr., Briere's announce
ment of his candidacy will be found in
another column of this issue.

BEES AID TO FRUIT GROWERS
Insect Has important Place in AgricuI-
ture as Agent for Cross-Fer-
tiIizing Flowers.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
While Bookkeeping is usually consid-
cred only Z $ the industry of honey pro-
ductiOn, it is important to remember
that the honey bee has an important
place in American agriculture as an
agent for cross-fertilizing flowers. The
value of the honey bee in this regard
varies in different places and with diff
ferent seasons, but it is conservative
to state that the bee is Of more value
in cross-fertilizing than in honey pro-
duction. Many fruit blossoms re-
quire Decentralization before they
will set fruit, and the same thing is
true Of other plants, such as the clo-
yers and buckwheat. While many
wild species of insects serve this pur-
pose, the honey bee is the only one
which can be introduced economically
TO an orchard or farm, and, therefore,
may serve as an insurance to cross
fertilization if the weather permits
their flight during the blooming period.

iron rail broadside across the field.
The stalks then can be cut with q disk
harrow much better than if left stand
ing. If the disks Of the disk harrow
are sharp, they will cut the stalks into
short pieces, which soon decay. 1t is
never advisable to rake and burn
stalks and other trash on c0rnfelds
that are to be sown to oats unless the
quantity is so great that it can not
possibly be covered by disking. This
humus-making material should not be
destroyed but should be worked into
the soil.
Oats always should be soWn as early
ed, but the proper preparation should
not be sacrificed to gain a little time
in getting the seed into the ground.
Oats do best when sOWn in rather
firm seed bed, with two to three inches
of loose, mellow soil on the surface.
This can be obtained best on corn
stalk land by breaking the stalks,
double disking either by tapping half
or cross disking, and thorough harrow
ing with a spike-t0Oth harrow. Lap
ping half with q disk harrow leaves
the surface more nearly even than when
the field is disked. The disks should
be set to run three or four inches deep.
After the seed bed is in good condition
the seed should be soWn and the field
again narrowed.
The land seldom is pl0wed for oats
that follow a cultivated crop. Spring
blowing usually is not profitable, as
there is little time to allow the sub
surface to become compact and the
land is rarely in proper condition to
ploW before the oats should be sOwn.

BROOD SOWS NEED EXERCISE
Essential in Production of Strong,
Vigorous Litters-Make Them
Hustle for Corn Ration.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
One of the biggest hindrances to the
sows' narrowing good, strong, vigorous
filters is lack of exercise. During the
cold and snowy weather hogs like to
lie around the sleeping quarters and
be comfortable. That, however, Is
just what they should not do all the
time
The proper exercise for a brood
SOW is that which she will take vol
unfairly and not through force. They
should get their corn ration by hus-
fling for it in the stalk fields and not
by getting it fed around the sleeping
quarters, on feeding floors, or in
troughs Feed them ear corn during
the winter months and scatter it out
in the stalk fields. The manure
spreader is a good implement to use
in scattering this corn. Don't be afraid
1t will be wasted, for it won't. You
can readily regulate the amount fed
so that it will be picked up clean, and
you will find next spring that there is
not a bit of the corn lying around to
go to waste.
