live stock from 1914 to 1917 appear
ed, however, in 1918.
From 1914 to 1915 crop price adj
vanced per cent and livestock price
declined per cent, and by 1916 crops
had gained IL per cent in price and
the livestock price had joined the up

A much greater disparity between the
two classes of prices developed in 1917
when crop price gained SO per cent on

The disparity diminished in 1913. In
which year crop price rose to LOG per

The difference between the two rel
alive positions of the crop price and
the livestock price with reference to
1914 was 10 in 1915 and in 1915, 81 in
1917 and Is in 1913, so that in the last

was tending in favor of the livestock
price, but there was still wide gap

THE ONE-MAN FARM

A prominent local farmer said the
other day that he could operate his
farm of 160 acres unassisted. This
seems big task and would be almost
impossible under ordinary circumstan-
ces, but he added that he was ena-
bled to do it with the aid of modern
farm machinery. His farm is equipp-
ed with an electric plant that does
away with much of the labor. He
milks his cows with a machine, and
does his field work and hauling with
a tractor. He admitted that in order
to do this he had to arise at 4:30 "A.

WAY TO RESTORE
BURNED-OVER LAND

Thousands Of acres of burned-over
low land in the fire-swept area of north
ern Minnesota can be made into ex-
cellent meadow if taken in hand before
a second growth of trees and brush are
under way. Much excellent meadow
land of this section has never been moved
on account of brush and down trees.
The fire has cleared up most of this
and little extra cleaning up by hand
would make it possible to go over this
land with mower. The mower would
keep down all second growth and lessen
the danger of fires in the future as
well as enable the farmers of this section
to keep more than double the amount of
livestock. "A. J. Mcclure, agricultural

AIMS OF THE NORTH AMERICAN
GYMNAsTIC UNION.

Il =
The North American Gymnastic Union
owes its origin to the political refugees
from Germany and Austria who settled
in this country after the failure of the
revolutionary movement of l848-49 to
throw off the yoke Of monarchy and
militarism.
Originally they were hopeful, in the
event of renewal of the revolution, Of
returning to Germany and of assist
ing in the struggle against their OPP
pressors. Since, however, the reaction
airy element at home retained the upper
hand, they renouncing all old country
allegiance, pledged to the. land Of the
Declaration of independence their en-
thusiasm for liberty and founded Turn
vereins for the purpose of physical edu-
cation and the strength and promoting
Of political and religious freedom.

SAYS HOT WATER
WASHES POISONS
FROM THE LIVER
Everyone should drink hot water
with phosphate in it,
before breakfast.

To feel as fine as the proverbial
fiddle, we must keep the liver washed
clean, almost every morning, TO pre-
vent Its sponge-like pores from clog
ging with indigestible material, sour
bile and poisonous toxins, says a noted
physician.
If you get headaches, it's your liver
If you catch cold easily, it's your liver.
If you wake up with bad taste, furred
tongue, nasty breath. or stomach be-
comes rancid, it's your liver. SalloW
skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes
all denote liver uncleanliness. Your
liver is the most important, also the
must abused and neglected organ of
the body. Few know it's function or
how to release the dammed-up body
waste, bile and toxins. Most folks
resort to violent calomel, which is a
dangerous, salivating chemical which
can only be used occasionally because
it accumulates in the tissues, also
attacks the bones.
Every man and woman, sick or
we'll, should drink each morning be-
fore breakfast, a glass of hot water
with teaspoonful of limestone phos-
phate in it, to wash from the liver and
bowels the previous days indigestible
material, the poisons, sour bile and
toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
Limestone phosphate does not re-
strict the diet like calomel, because it
can not salivate, for it is harmless and
you can eat anything afterwards. II
is inexpensive and almost tasteless, and
any pharmacist will sell you quarter
pound, which is sufficient for dem
onstration of how hot water and lime

TIMELY HINT AS TO
SURFACE bitches

Those farmers who feel that the
present uncertainty in the labor and
money markets does not justify large
expenditures in tile drainage improve
ments may now proftably give seri-
Gus thought to the use Of temporary,
supplementary surface bitches at this
time, says H. B. Roe, assistant, agri-
cultural engineer, University Farm, St.
Paul. It is usually possible to make
such bitches wide and comparatively
shallow so that they can be readily
crossed at any point with farm machln-
cry. Shallow pockets in fiat cultivated
fields can often be joined into chain
by making all such bitches lead to a
/, common outlet at the public road ditch.
Such action will often prevent consider
able delay in farming operations and
may also do away with the drawing on
of considerable patches Of otherwise
promising crops in wet seasons.
| Small swanps may often be profit
ably handled in the same way, thus
, converting into permanent hay meadow
small areas which before were entirely
unproductive.
There are machines now obtainable
at nominal cost for doing ditching Of
this character. 1t is often possible
with such machines to cut from one
half to mile of field ditch, from one
and one-half to two and one-half. feet
deep, in single day.
By close observation during rains,
a farmer may readily find out for him
self the best lines to- follow in marking
out such bitches, and he can do much
to help himself in this way without the
employment of special engineering ser
vice..

NATIVE NUT TREES.

Just prior to the end of the war a
! nation wide canvass for black walnut
timber was being made. From Maine
to California government men were
searching the back yards and wood lots
in many town, village and hamlet
for. the big walnut trees, which for
many years had been thot of little
value, except for shading purposes.
! This activity, was due to the urgent
request on the part of the War Depart
ment for black walnut timber, from
which to manufacture gun stocks. The
facts that there was very little of this
timber to be had made the task difficult
one and just what Uncle Sam would
have used to substitute for black walnut,
| had the war gone on is indeed hard to
| tell.
With the passing Of the war time need
for walnut, as we'll as for other cabinet
woods, comes the peace time demand.
Cabinet makers and manufacturers of
many and varied kinds of tool handles
are in the market for nut tree woods.
With the supply Of big timber practic-
ally depleted, the future supply depends
largely on the action of the present
generation. Because of the very high
and lasting qualities of its wood and
moderately rapid rate Of growth of the
tree, in good localities, the black walnut
is one of the very most desirable trees
to plant on the farm.
Black walnut. (Juglans nigra.) New
Ulm and vicinity is the farthest point
north and west to where this tree grows
naturally, although it is now growing
by repeated paintings much farther
north and west. The nuts have fine
rich flavor and are preferred by some
to the butternut, and are readily salable
every year. The wood of this tree is
becoming more valuable year after year,
and large trees Of it are exported to
other countries. The wood is of a
dark rich brown color, rather hard
and firm, but susceptible to high
polish and is probably more extensively
/ employed for first class cabinet work
than any other native wood. If every
farmer in Brown County would plant say,
a hundred of these trees in the course
! Of ten years, the future generations
would have a legacy of millions.
Butternut. (Juglans cinerea.) This
is indigenous much farther north and
! west than the Black Walnut. The
kernel of this nut is sweet, rich and oily,
and is the best growing in the Northwest.
Wood light colored, only moderately
hard, very durable for cabinet work
and many other purposes. Seedlings
grown from both the Black Walnut
and Butternut, when transplanted sever
al times can be moved when quite large
But on the farm it is best to plant the
nuts where the trees are to stand. Both
commence bearing after eight to twelve
years.
