WALSTER TELLS HOW
TO CURE SEED CORN

Fargo, N. D. - "Why care for and
cure the seed corn after you have
carefully picked the best ears in the
field?" asks DR.. H. l.. Walster, agro-
nomist at the Agricultural College in
commenting upon the success of seed
corn week observed throughout North
Dakota, September to 10.
Lets just sit down and figure out
the reason. Picked seed corn con-
tains about 40 per cent moisture.
Down in Nebraska it was found that
even the corn best adapted to lOcali-
ties in the state doesn't mature and
dry enough in all seasons to escape
frost injury when it is left exposed
to low temperatures in the field or
in the crib. If that is true in Ne
braska, how much more so is it true
in North Dakota where frost injury is
much more likely to occur.
"Much of the poor termination of
corn is due to frost killing. This in
jury Of seed corn by frost is proper
tional to the moisture that the seed
corn contains. If the percentage is
lowered to Is to 20 per cent-that is
if it is lowered by about one-half
of what it contains when it is picked,
and this curing is done quickly enough
so that the drier stage is reached be-
fore frost occurs, then the seed is
apt to be in good condition. Then
the seed can be dried further to pre-
vent injury in the severe cold of mid
winter. Artificial heat will help you
much in this curing operation in North
Dakota, of course, but where heat is
used there must be good ventilation,
or the corn will be almost cooked
the job will be more than done.
Nov how about some good places
to store seed corn" continued DR..
Walster. "Rafters in summer kit
chen or some other building on the
farm that can be heated are good
spots. Under the ceiling of porches
where neither rain nor the brightest
sunlight can strike the ears is an
other favorite storing place. Many
careful growers build special seed
corn drying houses and these of course
can be built to give ideal results. But
no matter where the seed is stored,
have the ears arranged so that they
do not touch each other. There are
special devices for accomplishing this
object, although the old-fashioned
method Of hanging the ears over
wire by tying two ears together by the
husks, or by using string to hang
the separate ears from rafters and
other places are still considered to
be good methods to use. OF course
you will not store the seed ears on
the south side of barn where the
direct sunlight and rain can strike
them, nor on windmill, nor in
granary above the stored grain. There
are enough good places to store seed
chance or risk by storing it in any old
place."

California Fruit Growers are Dis
annOintAd

Frank w. Youngman received an
interesting letter from w. H. Reig-
hart who is now making his home
in San Francisco, Calf. Mr.. Reig-
hart states that he has decided to
make his home in California. Many
friends will be interested in the let
ter which follows:
81 see by the Independent that
things are as usual around Minot,
owing to lack of rain and heat. 1t
will take lot Of optimism to keep
going under the conditions, however,
the farmers here are none too well
off even with irrigation. The crops
Of fruit have been fair but owing to
high freight and express rates, they
are selling most Of it below the cost
of production. There is large
quantity Of last seasons almonds in
stOrehouses, the canneries have large
quantities of last seasons fruit still on
their hands which means low price
for this seasons crop. Wine grapes
will bring good price as they will
be shipped to eastern buyers, regard
less of cost to be made into contra
band wine. The rice grower is as
bad off as the western N. D. wheat
grower, the bottom has dropped out
of the rice market, so it is not all
profit, even in Sunny California, but
even under the present conditions
California is better off than most Of
the other states. noticed in the
paper that Mrs. Youngman was in the
hospital for an operation. hope she
will come through it in fine shape and
will be restored to good health again.
I'VE expect to see our boy tonight
or tomorrow. The ship he is on is
making a trip from Philadelphia to
San Francisco and are due here to-
night or tomorrow morning. As we
live near the bay and can see all the
ships leaving or entering the port we
have been watching closely all the
ships arriving today to see when his
ship arrives. We have not seen him
since he enlisted in the navy at the
beginning of the war SO we are rather
anxious to see his ship come in.
"When you write to Sepp again tell
him for me, that he read that article
wrong about the heat in San Fran
cisco. We have heat in our office
nearly every day and in our rooms
we have a fire in the CRATE nearly
every evening. Overcoats are COM
mon sight every day on the streets
and light summer clothing is not seen
at all, the average temperature is
58h degrees. Anyone suffering from
heat can sure find relief in San Fran
cisco. We were out in the car this
afternoon and l wore, besides my
heavy clothing, a wool sweater SO you
see the hot August days are not in
Frisco. This condition, however, ap-
plies only on the coast. Just few
miles away and the thermometer will
register any where up to 105. This
is one place where there are no flies,
no mosquitoes and no window or door
screens, however there are some fleas
in the sand but they are too cold to
bite much"

rains which have suspended harvest
ing and threshing operations in prac-
tically every district in Saskatchewan,

cut grain.
Reports from Swift Current state

Dedicates Some Lines to Minot


Mrs. Waldo Croker, Of New Castle,
during the summer, visiting at the
home Of her sister, Mrs. J. c. Small,
wood and with her brother, O. N.
Elliott. Her visit inspired her to
write the following interesting lines:
My thoughts run back to Minot
That city far away
Where the mighty Mouse overflows its
banks
When spring time comes to stay.
see again the clean straight streets
With pavement hard as flint.
Where Dago Frank his vigil keeps,
Trying to get squint.
Up Main street saunters Nestos,
The Governor to be -.
But he wants all de "vimen's votes"
To get him there, you see.
laundering up the broad straight
street,
With Howard at it's head,
Comes "The Band That Woke Up
Fargo"
Sure man, 'twould wake the dead.
Again election day looms clear,
The day that Shaw and Smart
Each vowed to make Of Minot
A town to cheer the heart.
One was too Smart, the papers said
The other rocked the boat,
But bless me now, if can tell
Which polled the biggest vote.
Full many scenes of Minot
Before my vision fit,
While in my far Canadian home,
I sit and think of it.
The smooth brown hills so treeless,
The prairies fiat and wide,
Where tumble-weeds roll to and fro
And the tiny gophers hide.
So here's health to America,
That great Land Of the Free.
And here's another to Canada,
She's good enough for me.

BEMIDJI MANS LEGS CUT
OFF BY TRAIN: DIES AT LAKE

Devils Lake, N. d., Sept. 10. =
MILFORD Dean, who gave his address

hospital here yesterday soon after
having both his legs amputated when
he fell under a freight car at Keith,
N. D., which he was trying to board.
Dean had been employed at the ele-

Was in Minot in 1886

David r. McGinnis, writing the In
dependent from Oakland, Calf, says:
I'm the spring Of 1887 l was sent
by the Great Northern to Minot where
I QUILTED and explored the country
going up to Burlington and the valley
of the Des Laos to the foot Of upper
Lake Des Laos, then southwest to
crossing of the White Earth, then
west along the line of construction to
Fort Buford, Poplar River agency to
where the Milk River joins the Mis-
souri,, thence back to Minot.
1T was pretty raw country in
those days, but country of promise"
