j.. 7. Lawson, the Rockland hardware
dealer was one Of the pupils attend
ing school taught by Mrs. W. S. Stod-
dard, a sister of Mrs. Carpenter, now
residing ia Saiida, Colorado. Both
OF the Rockland men are interested in
dry farming. AS pupils they followed
the precepts laid down by their teach
ers and did well in doing so. But the
whirligig Of time has brought about
the fact that in later years the former
teacher. Mrs. Carpenter, has followed
the lead Of the pupils and has forsaken
the class oom for the dry farm. In
November, 1914, Mr.. Carpenter filed
on a Power county dry farm nine
miles west of Aberdeen and he and
Mrs. Carpenter are doing their best

The question Of producing and selling
cream on a ranch and the income de-
rived therefrom as compared with the
income from the sale of beef has often
come up for discussion, but it is not so
often reduced to the basis of figures
A few days ago two men we're dis
cussing the matter and one of them
presented figures showing that in a
year he had produced on his ranch a
ton of cream. and still had the cows
that produced it. His income from the
sale Of cream was entirely satisfac-
tory TO him; in fact, it exceeded in
amount what he would have received
from a ton of beef. The figures con-
vinced the other man that it is far
more profitable to grow cream for the
market than to grow beef.

1t can not be denied that it is some
what muddy on the roads that lead
to Aberdeen, but the night frosts are
to blame for that condition. If the
gentle breezes were let alone, if the
nightly frosts did not interfere, the
roads will soon be dry. There is con-
ISOLATION, however. in the friendly pud-
dies of water by the side of the high
ways; a fellow can take a stroll
through them and get rid of the sur
plus mud on his boots and at the same
time do his bit of road work by level
ing up low places. But the mud could
be worse. There is a story told of
another section of Idaho, which story
goes on to say that a wayfarer was
wading along an extremely muddy
road and found a hat lying in the mud.
He picked up the hat and to his great
establishment saw a human head
leaning far back and the lips address,
ing him in friendly greeting. The
wayfarer ventured to reply that the
submerged individual was in a thun-

the answer; you're about right

Marion Ginger is a newcomer in
the Aberdeen country. coming here
form Provo, Utah. last April. He has
acquired an S0-acre tract of irrigated
land adjoining the townsite of Aber-
deem OF the south. Last year he
raised a small acreage of Bluestem,
getting an average of IS bushels per
acre from irrigated land. He also had
in % acres of sugar beets. Down in
Utah he always plOwed deep. Is inches
for sugar beets, and he has raised IS
tons to the acre. He m from a
section where irrigation is universal
and knows the ins and outs OF that
method of farming. When he took
possession of his tract here he found
200 loads of manure lying in the barn
yard; all of this valuable fertilizer he
has spread upon the fields during the
winter. He brought with him from
Utah five registered Jersey COWS, the
oldest one in the herd having been
imported from the Bluestem country
in Kentucky. Mr.. Ginger will go in
for dairying on a liberal scale. being
we'll aware of the fact that a dairy
herd is one of the principal revenue
producers on any ranch, dry or irri-
gated. His alfalfa fields last year
gave but two cuttings, due to the late
spring; three annual cuttings are the
rule on irrigated lands. however. and
he will grow plenty of alfalfa hay on
the home tract for his dairy herd. MI.
Ginger also brought with him nine
high grade Belgian horses. He pre-
fers this strain to any other for farm
work. finding that they are easy kept,
mature early and do as much or more
work than any other breed of draft
horses.

VI lclleiA anu OF nome pa
pers. If the folks at home could re-
alize the feeling Of disappointment and
lonesomeness when a soldier retires
from the fine without a letter or pack
age they would gladly write to any
soldier whose address they may have
even though the soldier is a total
stranger to them. Soldiers have a
habit Of answering all letters, and they
know how TO write in an entertaining
manner. Try it, dear reader; you will
make happy some mar who is fight

There are a few old moss-grown
adages which have been going the
rounds of the universe which at some
time or the other are not proven to
be fallacies, and among these is the
time-worn saying that a woman can
not throw straight. The other day
an Aberdeen woman was seen to gath
er up a handful of stones for the pur-
pose of hurting them at a Rhode Is
land Red rooster who was scratching
around in the premises where he was
not wanted. Five stones were thrown
and four of them struck the in~terlop-
er and he made all haste to vacate.
The stones were thrown at a range of
40 feet or ~thereabout, and the throwee
sent them forth in silence. If had
been a man he would have been talk
ing Latin at the rooster with every
stone he hurled. Now, if there are
any other moss-grown adages stick
ing around bring them forth.
A few issues back the suggestion of
a rancher in ROckland valley that the
Kaiser pea be named the thrift pea
was printed in these columns. While
calling at the Aberdeen home of W.
H. Carpenter the Pilgrim was shown
a letter from R. J.. Leth. state seed
commissioner, in which the gentleman
refers to the pea as a McAdoo pea; to
make it more binding, Mr.. Leth stated
in his letter that he referred to the
pea formerly named the Kaiser pea.
The state seed commissioner in his
letter to Mr.. Carpenter made inquiry
regarding the quantity of McAdoo pea
seed he could obtain. Mr.. Carpenter
raised 1345 pounds of this variety of
pea last year on his dry farm nine
miles west of Aberdeen and at the
meeting Of the Idaho Seed Growers
association held in Idaho Falls in
January his exhibit won first prize in
competition with field peas. whether
raised on on dry or irrigated land.
Last years experiment with this pea
was Nh. Carpenters initial effort TO
raise them On dry land and his signal
success has induced him to devote a
greater acreage to them this spring.
He stated that every plant of them was
raised by dry farm method and that
they were cultivated only once. but
that great care was taken to keep the
tract free from weeds. If any reader
writes to Mr.. Carpenter for seed in
formation regarding the pea he or she
should refer 10 them as the McAdoo
pea; Mr.. Carpenter will know what is
referred to for he has adopted the
name McAdoo for this pea in line with
the suggestion Of the state official
above named.
