:>~ TODAY IMPORTANT
Inv limited Press. !

st. Paul, Oct. 9.-The Great North
ern railroad today laid plans for re-
turn to private control. Stockholders
and directors were here for their an
nual meeting and elections.
!. The meeting will be one Of the
most important in the history of the

late prospect Of the railroads being
tufned back from federal control it is
believed they will be back under pri-
vate control some time this winter or
early in the coming year.
Four directors, Roger B. Shepard,

Albert l.. Ordean, were up for re-
election. ia

USE PROPER SEED
FOR POTATOES
Treating Diseases viii Also
Help in Bringing Out a
Bumper Crops.

That farmers of St. Joseph coun-
y have no reason TO believe that
they are unable TO raise a bumper
crop of potatoes, was the assertion
made by ]. T. Gregory, potato ex-
pert from Purdue university. Mr.
Gregory has made a thorough ex-
animation of the soil throughout the
county and states that the trouble
lies in the fact that in proper seed
along with failure TO treat the many
diseases Of the vegetable properly.
are the causes of the poor yields
Of the potato crops during the past
few years.
Expert Gregory with T. c. Gay
Tor. also OF Purdue, has covered the
county completely and Interested five
different farmers in as many various
sections Of the county. in the propo-
sition and they have decided 70
scientifically raise the tubers during
the coming season.
Gaylor spoke on the proper seed
needed TO produce a big crop while
Gregory emphasizes the fact that the
diseases Ilucl ~ lltdlt4 anu uiutT-
stood or the yield Will be poor.
The seed must be adapted TO the
soil in which it is planted and must
be OF the proper size. or the yield
will be small. A few years ago Elk
hart county produced over so car
loads OF potatoes every season but
at present does not much more than
supply the county. The reason is that
the seed has run out and diseases
have been allowed 20 continue their
work on the plants from year to year
until at present the ground is com
pletaly filed with the undersurface
diseases. 4 big crop will never be
raised in that county again unless
the farmers treat their seed and
their ground against these diseases
II is a stated fact that too much lye
in the ground will produce the com
mon scale found on so many OF the
potatoes grown in northern Indiana
The experts have selected various
] patches in Elkhart county aS n ST.

PAGE THE PIED PIPER.

Prof David Z. Lantz. Asst Biolo-
sist in the L. ). Bureau OF Biological
Survey, has written a most compre
hensiVe article for the year book Of
agriculture for 1917.
Il believe that the encouragement
OF the boys clubs. in connection with
many farm bureaus TO conduct or
ganized rat campaigns. will do the
business. In any rural community
which Is badly infested with rats. il
is a good plan TO organize rat clubs
in every school district and offer
prizes every month and also a bounty
for rat tails.
In order 10 begin the work
meeting should be called Of the com
mercial clubs, women's clubs and
the farm bureau and the article
above referred to READ and discussed
and prompt and efficient action
taken. Prizes may be provided by
private donation or even by assess
ment of members.
The school children should each
be assigned a small territory, pre-
ferably their own homes, and re-
port on all harbors where rats may
propagate. The war spirit which has
been engendered will SO arouse the
boy scouts that they will fight to
the last ditch in order 70 cXterminate
the foe.
In every seaport vessels at dock
should be required TO place rat
guards an all hawsers and should
be breasted off by spars furnished
with rat guards This may require
federal legislation, but it must be
done.
We Are killing Our Allies.
We have been killing many of our
best friends, allies which would
make the battle easy. The natural
enemies of rat and mice include be-
side the dog, cat and ferret, nearly
all kinds OF snakes, storks. herons,
hawks, owls, skunks and weasels;
and. sad TO relate. all Of these enc
mics have been nearly exterminated
by our desire 70 kill something
through prejudice or ignorance.
"All the hawks. owls and weasels
in the country combined do not de-
stroy one-sixth as much poultry as
the common barn rat.
buildings should be so construct
ed as TO exclude the enemies from
shelter and food, and when the cam
paign is under way an inspection
committee should visit the premises
wherever rat abound TO see that it
is efficiently done.
viii it be too costly? What do
rats cost now? If half the money
now spent IN feeding and fighting
the rats could be expended in wisely
planned cooperative effort we could
kill off 80 per cent and insure our
selves completely from the fear Of
bubonic plague and other rat-borne
diseases"

PRUNING
AID TO ORCHARDS
Will Add rs Percent to Yield,
According to Expert
mentS at Purdue.

An orchard can be made to come
into earlier and heavier bearing BY
judicious pruning. In one two-acre
experimental block of apples those
trees receiving d light pruning of the
proper kind came into bearing two
years earlier. and at nine years bore
10 percent more fruit than trees
which had been pruned according to
the common practice Of cutting them
back severely. These results are
given by Prof. Oskamp. OF he
Horticultural department Of Purdue
university, who will demonstrate his
methods Of pruning at the Fruit
Growers Short Course. which will
be given Feb. "a 10 March I.
The Importance Of training the
young tree has been brought out in
the experiment. Many orchards in
Indiana have been permanently
weakened by failure &c train the
young tree so as TO develop a strong
framework that can carry Il maxi
mum crop OF fruit without breaking
and splitting the tree. The open
center type OF tree is almost sure to
develop such faults. II is an I'M
natural form for most apple vari-
cites and the tree perpetually at
tempts 10 replace the central stem
thus neceSsitating the removal OF
much wood and delaying the axe OF
bearing. The central stem or modi-
fled leader form Of tree will produce
a stronger. longer lived and more
profitable tree with less pruning.

For centuries an enemy has been

The economic loss due to rats
