prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture.)
A farm practice not generally EN-.
ployed is the use of the weeder or the
spike-tOoth harrow instead of the usu-
al One-rOw cultivator in cultivating
crops like corn, cotton and potatoes.
This practice does not involve buying
new implements. 1t means only a diff.
ferent use of those already on many
farms, yet it reduces labor cost 40 per
cent and does the job in one-third the
time.
On well-prepared ground which is
free from stones, clods and trash, a
two-section harrow or 12-foot weeder
can be used for all but the heaviest
cultiyating until the crops are 5 to 6
inches high, and will do the work
in one-third the time required by a
two-horse cultivator. BY using the
larger implements the cost of cultiva-
ton is reduced from 50 per cent to
about 20 per cent of the cost of grow
ing the crop, besides releasing valu-
able farm labor for other work dur
ing the busy season. If desired, the
crops can be cultivated twice as often
during the first part of the season, in
which case there will be little hoeing
and cultivating to do during haying.
In either event the weeds are killed
wholesale in May, instead of row at
at time in June.
Not Severe Treatment.
Driving weeder or even a harrow
over a young, growing crop is not as Sc
we're treatment as would appear. Most
crop plants are tough and heavily
rooted and are not damaged perma-
nently, either by the harrow or the
horses. A few plants are uprooted
and there is some tearing Of the
larger leaves, but this can be entirely
offset by seeding little more heavily
than usual. Weeds, on the other hand,
are mostly shallow-rooted, and are
nearly all destroyed. However, the
harrow or weeder must be used be-
fore the weeds exceed an inch in
height in order to be effective. Per-
ennial weeds, of course, like quack

Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Il. Campbell and
son, Laurence Campbell, of North Main
street, returned to the city last evening
by automobile from Old Orchard Me,
where they have been spending the past
two weeks.
A very enjoyable private dance was
held last evening at the Rowland hall,
under the auspices of a number of Barre
young men. About IS couples we're pres

music was furnished by Gilbcrtson's or
chestra.
Alex Watt arrived in the city last
evening from Boston, to spend few
days on short furlough with friends
and relatives in the city. Mr.. Watt has
made several trips along the Atlantic
seaboard since his enlistment in the
merchant marine service a few months
ago.
The adjutant general this morning re-
ceived another telegram relative to
aliens, which will materially affect their
status in the country. 1t appears that
the ambassadors of some of the neutral
countries have asked that declarants for
naturalization papers be allowed to
withdraw their declaration. This, the
government is advising local boards, can
take place, and then the local boards
viii treat them as aliens, and that the
aliens withdrawing will be refused at fu-
ture dates chance to become natural
lied in this country.
Disappointment awaited large num-
Der of Barre people last evening, who
turned out to enjoy supposed open
air band concert. Owing to some mis-.
understanding the electric car company
advertised on the street cars the an
nouncement OF such an event, which was
to be given at the city park last even
ing. After waiting for about half
hour after the usual time for commenc-
ing the concert, the dawning of the mis-
understanding came upon the number of
people and ii was with great deal Of
disappointment that they dispersed for
their homes later.

again by turning over to this
country, for use in the war, &C of
her largest steamships. For many
years the island kingdom has
sought to win and hold the good
will and esteem of America, but
has met with many rebuffs. Ger
manitis has been at work to pre-
vent the growth of cordial good
feeling between the two countries.
Wild stories without number have
been circulated in this country,
and have found credulous persons
ready to give ear. Japan has been
represented as nourishing hostile
designs upon America-the one
country whose friendship she most
coveted. The time has come to
be fair to Japan, to grasp her prof
fered hand and join with her in
solving the common problems of
the two countries.

that Grangeville had subscribed
about 100000 of its quota of
$125,000 and Cottonwood $4,000
of it's quota of $67, 000." Perhaps
this was a mistake in setting the
type, as at that time Cottonwood
had subscribed about $55, 900,
while our quota was only $50,650.
If it was not a mistake in type
setting, then the fool-killer has a
job in Grangeville. Evidently

Review he says that the people of
Winona have already subscribed
for $4,000 worth of bonds. It
should have read $500.

COAST FARMERS
 RAISE 900 TONS
 OF GOOD TUBERS

ANCHORAGE.-About 300 tons constitute the amount of the potato crop this season in the Matanuska valley, the agricultural district on the line of the government railroad, forty miles north of Anchorage. In addition to potatoes, there are large quantities of beets, onions, turnips, carrots and cabbages. The yield of hay totals at least fifty tons.
 Potatoes are the chief source of revenue for the farmers. This vege- table was the only product in last seasons crop to be marketed else where than Anchorage and towns in the Cook Inlet region. Matanuska potatoes were sold in nearly every place in Southwestern and South eastern Alaska In the future, as in the past, they will be the chief agricultural article of export.
 This season, as last. only enough beets, onions, turnips and cabbages were raised to supply the demands of the Cook Inlet region. The hay is not baled, and its just about suffi- cient for the needs of livestock in the Matanuska valley.
 While the potato crop this year is not so large as it was last year it is much better in quality, The yield of 500 tons, however, is more than will be required in the Cook Inlet region, so there will be a con siderable quantity available for mark eting in towns along the South western and Southeastern coasts Of 1 Alaska.
 1 The potatoes, until orders are re- ceived for shipments, will be kept by farmers in either their association storage houses or their individual root cellars.
