The champion steer in the Red River
Valley shown at the winter stock show
at CrQokston the week of February 10
will win $500 in premium money be-
sides having his picture "took'. He
will y II be auctioned OF to the highest bid

quality animal. There is much specu-
lation as to what county will land this
honor Will Marshall county live stock
men try for it? If they do they can
make a mighty good showing. There
are classes for steers above Is months,
under Is months, and for market sheep
and hogs. In addition pure bred cattle
of. all breeds, beef and dairy, will be
exhibited as well as pure bred swine
and sheep. There is room for $50 head
in the new comparatively built live
stock pavilion located next to the
armory at CrOOkstOn.

satisfactorily conducted the fair during
the past year, were again reelected,

Succ Farmers
Institute Held.

During the past week two Farmers
Institutes were conducted in the coun-
ty under the auspices of the Farm
Bureau. Two days were given to
Warren and one to Stephen.
The first afternoon was largely de-
voted to diversified farming compared
with the straight grain cropping, while
the latter part Of the afternoon was
devoted to the subject of Economical
Hog Production, in this northern lati-
tude.
Emphasis was laid on hogging crops,
thereby making the hogs do the work.
A system Of rotation Of crops, adapt
able to this locality, was given and the
system las been found both feasible
and practical. ---.S.2. -.
! Types Of hog houses were discussed
with special emphasis: as to the straw
shed. .s..
The afternoon discussion was led by
Judge A. e. Chamberlain, of Chicago,
and the outstanding feature of the en-
tire discussion was the practical sug-
gesti0ns both as to good systems of ro-
tation as we'll as inexpensive buildings
and quarters. -
The second day session was opened
by Prof. VIM. L. Cavert, of the Univer-
sity Farm, discussing the subject of
Farm Records and Farm Accounts.
The records of a Marshall county
farm were used to illustrate the value
! Of records. Questions were raised as
| to changes that could be made in order
to increase the farni tiieoine. One
question entering into the discussion
WAS whether o. not it wo'llt at.ii:: { &.
bHg a small tractor for that type Hhd
size Of farm. In closing the discussion
special emphasis was laid on Farm
Records iii relation to the Income Tax.
Mr.. J. G. Haley, Of the International
Harvester Company, led the closing
| discussion. 1t conferred around diversi-
fieus farming, dwelling mainly Oh the
value Of the silo in livestock pfoduc-
ton. He talked from experience and
always to the point. He touched On
the cheap construction of silOs, the
filling of silos and feeding of ensilage.
He further emphasized the growing of
sweet clover and alfalfa in profitable
livestock production.
The large charts used by Mr. Haney
as well as by Mr. Chambeflaih, the
previous day, were forcefully instruc-
tive, to put it mildly. Whenever a
point was to be emphasized the charts
were referred to and it must be admit
ted that they gave the necessary effect.
1t was unanimously conceded that
the meetings were success a1d the
day will be looked forward to when we
again will be favored by talks so brim
full Of practical ideas and suggestions.
