The Salvation Army, because Of it's
branches in every country in the world,
conducts what is probably one Of the
most efficient of detective bureaus. 1t
is the Bureau Of Missing Persons,
which sends out daily alarms to all
sections In Its efforts to find those who
have disappeared.
In the United States over 1900 in
Quiries for missing persons come into
the Salvation Army each year, and In
spite Of the meagerness of the availa-
BILE information, in spite Of the fact
that large proportion of those who
are missing do not want to be found,
in spite of all the obstacles and him
drances, over 1000 are located by the
Salvation Army each year.

The democratic state convention held
the political spot light the past week.
Every county in the state with the ex-
ception of one or two were represented.
Over $50 women were among the dele
gates and took a prominent part in
the proceedings of the convention.
The convention was greatly enlivened
by the attacks Of Frank Day OF Fair
mont and Zeke Austin Of Minneapolis
against National Comitteeman Lynch,
and Day led the fight for Mrs. Peter
Oleson of Cloquet for delegate-at-large,
the convention finally selecting Mrs.
Oleson by reclamation, this breaking
what was given out as the Lynch slate:
Ramsey which was considered as solid
against Mr.. Lynch, swung it's III votes
to the national committeeman on ire
roll call, otherwise his vote would have
suffered appreciably.
The delegates at large selected
aside of Mrs. Oleson, are D. D. DAILY,
who received $50 votes, F. B. Lynch
668 and A. C. Weiss 545. The total vote
in the convention call was 1910.
Delegates selected from this district
are E. w. Swenson of Foley and John
Galarnaau of Aitkin. Mrs. sanborn
of Bemidji and William Clutches OF
Long Prairie are alternates. Giles
o 'Brien of Brainerd was chosen an cleo

The BEST WHEAT

Contrary to the common opinion,
seed wheat does not run out" 1t Is true
that its quality will deteriorate and
the yield become smaller If LETT to its
enemies which are inherent in the
wheat.
It is therefore important that con-
certed action should be taken to es-
tablish more profitable farming meth
DDS.
It is wise to establish the variety
best adapted to soil and climate. In
almost every county Marquis wheat
should be urged. There is nothing the
matter with Fife and Blue Stem ex-
cept that they have not been kept pure
and the record will show that they
do not yield so well and are not so
safe, but taking everything into con-
sideration, Marquis is the most desir-
able wheat. Velvet Chaf lacks bread
gluten and is too soft. Durum is fine
wheat for certain purposes. but has
a limited market, there being a de-
mand for not more than 10 per cent
OF the total spring wheat crop. The
price of Durum is often 20 to 80 cents
per bushel below the price of No. 1
Northern, which in itself is argument
enough. This applies to the macaroni
durums which should not be confused
In any way with the so-called Red
Durum. "Rust PROOF or Durum Fife

t1cally no market, and should not, be

PREPARING THE SEED BED

Spring wheat should be sown as
soon In the spring as the seed bed can
be properly prepared. termination
takes place in the ground when the
temperature is about AZ to so degrees.
Generally the quantity Of seed per
acre varies six to eight pecks. Your
own experience will tell you how much.
Drilling is better than broadcasting.
The seed bed should be loose on top
and the root bed firm underneath. The
use of the corrugated roller is recon-
mended.
Marquis is an early variety r1pening
from SO to 1876 days after sowing, the
average being about lis days. This
makes it three or four days earlier
than most of the other Fife varieties,
but it should be put into the ground
just as soon as the seed bed may be
prepared.
The seed usually should be sown
about two to three inches deep. The
important thing is to get it into soil
sufficiently moist to insure germina-
ton. In heavy wet soil one to two
inches will be deep enough.
Old or stubble land should be plowed
in the fall or as early as possible in
the spring. Sandy soils with ten
dency to drift, should be plowed under
in the spring. When land is fall-plOwed
it should be left rough to catch and
hold the snow and to prevent soil
blowing. Plow six to eight inches
deep, covering all weeds and trash.
Spring blowing may be slightly shall
lower than fall blowing and should be
worked down Immediately. The sur
face mulch should not be too fine and
powdery in districts where blowing is
common, besides the rain may puddle
it and not penetrate so readily. An ex-
cellent seed bed can be made in the
spring on fall blowing or on spring
blowing followed Immediately with
disks and corrugated rollers.
