Side Applications to Cotton.
| At the time the cotton plant Is In
full bloom ample plant food must be
available or else a large percentage
of the squares will shed, While there
are other factors that cause shedding,
for example, a lack OF a proper amount
OF moisture; still, it has been proven
that even with the most favorable
moisture conditions, lack OF plant
food is the potent cause OF thia
trouble.
Under boil weevil conditions, the
fertilizer used in side applications
should contain a high percentage OF
pbosphoric acid and rather low per

OFFER
KIDDlES HOMES
Farms Are Thrown Open to
Poor Children of Grand
Forks.

Several offers from farmers and
women. Eesiding in farm districts to
take children from Grand Forks and
give them q farm home during the
summer. have been received by Mrs.
Agnes NJ. Rex. commissioner of the
poor. in response ito an appeal issued
by her a short time in an attempt
to secure good homes for a number Of
Grand Forks Riddles during the sum-
mer.
There are some fifty or sixty chill
dren in Grand Forks Who are forced
by circumstances to live in close
have little opportunity to give the
proper care and in many instances
the youngsters are underfed and it is
hoped that these children can be
placed on farms n in rural districts
where they will have a good home,
good care and plenty of good whole
some food.
1t is desired to place a number Of
them for the entire summer if the
farmers are SO generous and to place
others for two weeks at a time in or
der to give them an outing which
would do much for their health and
happiness.
Mrs. Rex is confident that the farm.
ers in this section of the country are
generous. and kind hearted enough to
take this opportunity to give these
kiddies the outing of their life time.
Arrangements will be made here for
transporting the children to and from
the farms. She is sure that as the
spring advances a large number more
will open their homes and cupboards
to these youngsters and give them an
opportunity to get fat and happy and
tanned.
Farmers and residents of rural dis
tricts who wish to join the list Of
those who are opening their homes to
the children should communicate
with Mrs. Agnes. Rex, Grand Forks,
for particulars. 80" ."

PLANS READY
FOR ARMY HALL
New Three Story Structure
to Face DeMers
Avenue.

Plans for the construction Of the
new Salvation Army building which
Will be begun very oon were made
public this morning. after Captain
Harry Veach returned from Minnc-
apolis where he presented the plans
for the new local building before the
headquarters officials. The building
will occupy the plot ley to the
Strutz Auto company building or
DeMers avenue and 1t is expected that
bids for construction will be called for
in the lear, future. rs
Plans have been drawn for a thor
oughly modern three story building
including basement. with thirty-fve
feet on the venue and extending
back for eighty feet. With one side
on the alley the location affords ex-
cellent opportunities for natural
lighting. The building will present a
handsome front Of crushed brick and
stone finish.
A large auditorium with a seating
capacity of about 400, will occupy
the majority of the floor space OH the
first floor and will be fitted up with
stage Tinathes a and dressing rooms.
The mems reading room will also be
situated on the main floor. The base
ment will be finished as the rest of
the building, and will include the
ladies' retiring room, the Sunday
school room and store rooms and
closets. Both the mems reading
room and the ladies' rest room are to
be fitted up with complete furnishings
and fire places. The second floor will
be given over to the living quarters
of the captain in charge of the local
army, and in addition to these rooms,
will be six or eight bedrooms for the
convenience of transient visitors.
When the plans, which were drawn
up bySa local architect, were present
