FARMERS ALLOWED TO
PURCHASE MORE FLOUR
State Food Administration Raises
Limit to Farmers During
Busy Season

County Food Administrator Adams
has just received some new orders
regarding flour purchases, which
affect the farmers only. These new
rules are deemed necessary because
the farmers are now in the midst of
their heavy work and need more food
and more substantial food than DUR
ing the other seasons of the war.
The new order reads as follows:
Men and women working long
days during haying and harvest may
secure an increased wheat ration
during this season, if they feel they
need it and wish to make applica-
ton to the county food administrator,
and will buy the additional flour on
the $3.50 basis just as heretofore.
The food administration order
states:
'In order to minimize the effort
that must be put upon the preparay
ton of meals for men doing the heavy
work of haying and harvest upon the
farm, the state food administration
believes that is is proper to raise the
six pound per month flour limit to
farm workers during this season.
County food administrators are
therefore authorized to grant permits
sion to farmers employing extra lab

Bogus Seed Agents

Manager Nash of the County Farm
Bureau, has received word that GER
tain seed firms or agents of seed
firms are again canvassing the state
and Offering for sale new varities OF
oats of unknown adaptability and
that they are proposing to sell these
varieties as seed to farmers at two to
three dollars per bushel.
These oats are purported to have
been recently imported from Sweden
and from other remote regions. II
is doubtful, says Mr.. Andrew Boss
whether such oats will give any
better yields or be of any better
quality than the we'll established
standard varieties or oats that are al
present produced in Minnesota and
which can be purchased from rel1-
able and well known seed-men and
growers at a far lower price. 1t is
unwise to buy seed of any kind from
an unknown agent.
Such varieties of oats as Minnesota
Swedish Select, Victory, Minnesota
No. 281, No. 295, Kherson and Iowa
No. 103, are believed to be the best
oats available at the present for the
average Minnesota conditions.

Early Fall Flowing

Now that this crop is nearly ma
ture it is time to begin to prepare for
next years crop. The experience of
farmers as well as experimental EVIL
dence goes to show that early fall
blowing returns the best crops. 1t
does this for the reason that longer
period is given in which to decompose
the stubble and other particles OF
vegetable matter that are turned I'M
der in blowing and because it opens
up the soil to the reception of fall
rains, and also because it helps to
dispose of the weeds which trouble
the annual crops. Another reason
for fall blowing early and for plow-
ing all the land is that it lessons the

turn of $3.50 for butter and would
give at least 1000 pounds more of
milk, which at 20 cents per 100
pounds (and it is worth more for
feed) would bring So. The calf from
the good COW is also worth more, but,
let that go. The return would be
$3.50, less $40 for feed, or profit
of $3.50 on the same basis as the
other cow made profit of 1915. 1t
would take practically Is 175-pound
cows to make as much profit as the
one 350-pound COW.
Three dollars and seventy-fve
cents is 6.2 per cent on $50, and
$3.50 is 6.2 per cent on S895.16
On the basis of percentage income
when the 175-pound cow is worth
$50, the 35O-pound cow is worth
$895.16. The keeping of the cows
should be looked at from the bust
ness standpoint. The poor COW is
dear at any price, but the good COW
is usually not rated at her real value
