Make his acquaintance. M
Cutworms can b controlled IN 4
garden patch BY scattering . fsw
fakes Of poisoned bran along the
rows occasionally. Try it. One tea
spoonful paris green, one tablespoon
ful molassss, one quart bran; add
enough watar TO moisten.
"Plant one kernel for the hlack-
bird, one for the crow; one for the
cutworm and two TO grow" 10 Just
~ appropriate now ~ ever. With
good seed and good soil conditions
about four hsrnsls should b. planted
for every three stalks desired.
Az far q we know there i no more
bronze grass for sale within the
county. Write the. seed houses at
Bismarck or Fargo.
The grasshoppers We zee now oc-
cassionally are the King hoppers,
which have slept under grass or hay
during the winter. They are not
numerous. Those that hatch from
eggs in the ground are the ones we
fear. II weather warns up, we may
aee them the latter part Of this month
We again urge the planting Of a
fair sized plot Of potatoes, not only
because there il profit in them, but
also because It prepares the soil for,
alfalfa next year. Inoculate the al
fafa seed and plant on potato
ground and you are sure of q stand.
Get poisoned oats for gophers
from Auditor Brant.
A farmer, whose corn did not do
very well, requested his pastor to
come ont to the field and pray for It
to do better. The good pastor came
hut when he saw the sickly looking
field, he said, Brother, this corn
doesn't need prayer, II needs man
ure."
E. r. Purintun. while convslsscing
from an attack sf rheumatism, 'has
been trying ont the poisoned oats
and says it surely does raise havoc
with Mr.. Gopher. .,..:.:,a. &:
Men at $55 and go par month
have been placed with Claude Far
wood, C. Baker, 8. Busby, F. Rich
ardson, N. Cornelison and F. Rich.
Pure seed flax and seed corn are
listed at this Office. We have call for
two bushels Of sunhower se..d. II
yon have my, please let VI know.
14O ibushels of seed corn have been
transferred within the county and
l22O bushels shipped to farmers in
Stark, Bottineau, Grand Forks and
Griggs counties.
Several local agencies have helped
to distribute seed corn, such as the
Farmers Bank, Braddock; VIM. Pet
tis, Hazelton; and Chas. Brown, Lin
ton.
Several a,fslfs 5lots that last fall
were thought dead are coming in fine
shape this spring.
Drag the roads.
Most Of us know the symptoms Of
blackleg and what to do, but there
is another disease worse, Hemorrag-
hic septicimia, which is spreading
fast in this state. If your cattle are
sick and you are certain it isn't
blackleg, call the veterinarian at once
