FARM MARKETING
BIGGEST QUESTION
Red River Valley Winter Shows Seized
uled for Next Week at
CrOOkstOn,

The Red River Valleys best bet, or
best bit, either is only matter of
dot, will hold the stage next week, Feb.
z, 8, 8, 10 and IL, when the eleventh
annual Red River Valley Winter Shows
open at Crookston under the joint
auspices of the Northwest School Of
Agriculture, the Minnesota Red River
Valley Development Association and
the Red River Valley Live Stock Asso-
citation.
Best "bit" because they are designed
to: and do extend the work of the North
west School OF. Agriculture and promote
the agricultural interests of the north
west; best "bit" because they serve well
to. give the Red River Valley extended
publicity Of the best kind.
This years gathering is expected to
surpass all it's fore runners. The grain
and potato exhibits will be the largest
in number in the history of the shows
and the live stock, as indicated by the
numbered entered, $50 cattle, 800 swine
and sheep, will tax the accommodations,
even with the new big addition built
in 1920. That sales will be successful
is assured, with outstanding animals
offered and great interest by many in
securing foundation stock. -
The outstanding features of the
meetings programs will undoubtedly be
the farm marketing question. So great
has become the interest in this subject
that the major portion Of the time for
two full days, Thursday and Friday,
will be given over to the subject.
Shorthorns, Tuesday; Holsteins,
Wednesday,; swine, Thursday, will like
ly give prominence to live stock ON these
days although the evening programs for
each Of the five days Of the show make
all of them dominant. Among the
prominent leaders who will have part
in the programs are DR.. Henry Clark,
who on Tuesday evening will give his
lecture "Play Ball" which is attracting
nationwide attention. Wednesday eve.
ming Mrs. Peter Olesen, Minnesotan
who has gained national prominence
through her espousal of the feminine
cause in national affairs, will be. the
main speaker. On Friday President
Coffman, University Of Minnesota, will
give to the people Of the valley mes
sage that will encourage and stimulate
them to strive for and attain "the
best. Thursday evenings speaker, ii
is expected, will be one of the leaders
in the agricultural marketing question
now before the country.
Meetings for women, meetings of nu
merous valley organizations, and the
established spelling, declamatory and
stock judging contests will all have
place. Led by the song leader, who a
Miss Lucille Holiday, awakened tn

There were fourteen days in January
of last year when the mercury did not
rise above zero. January Oath was the
coolest day when it was 80 below and
did not get warmer than 16 below dur
ing the day. The approximate average
maximum temperature during January
OF last year was two degrees above
zero and the approximate minimum
temperature was six and one-half be-
low. This year both weree well above
the zero mark throughout the first
month Of the year.
During January Of this year there
were but Ii days when the mercury
dropped below zero and only two days
when it stayed below throughout the
day. Snow fell on the 3rd, 4th 5th,
