How to Make a Living From. the Start
on Cut-cver Land

This is my idea Of How to make Il
living from the start on cut-over land.
After fourteen years experience in
northern Wisconsin. this is the Sched-
ulc | would use if were starting now
to clear Il cut-over farm.
First. take time and select IL good
piece of land.
Second. invest not more than one
fourth Of your capital in the land.
Third. put up necessary. comfortable.
temporary buildings. dig well. clear
II garden spot. get a COW or two Il cor-
pie Of pigs and few chickens.
Fourth, slash the brush and all
standing timber six inches. or one foot
from the ground. And be sure to do
this as it is Il very important step not
always taken advantage Of You cal.
get three times the amount of brush
ing done in the same length of time
and if yOu can get fire through IN
August il will count AZ much as Il sec
0nd brushing. as on account OF the high
SIaShing both the stub and shoots are
practically killed. Then scatter tim
othy and alsike all through.
Fifth. fence rs soon as possible and
put on sheep from two to five per acre
or more if this is not enough to keep
down the sprouts and shoots. which
generally do not bother much after the
fire has gone through. owing TO the
high SlaShing.
Buy clover hay to winter the stock
on Try and raise some rutahagaS to
feed along with the hay.
In the winter market all bolts and
saahlc timber.
Put in your time. especially in June.
July and August. clearing, Sla>hng
and burning.
If possible hire your team work done
or exchange work with ncighbor I'M
til YOU have enough work TO keep a
team busy.
The wife and children can help Won
dprfully in Keeping down the household
expenses. if they gather and can and
dry wild berries. and vegetables and
fruits from the garden.
At the end Of two years the farm
ought TO he on Il good footing and in
the making of Il good farm and happy
home.

ON BN-ROADS

Philip +. Chock. farmer of the town
Of Hubbard, in a letter to the News
Budget gives it as his opinion that the
by-roads of the county receive alto
gethcr too little attention. compared to
the amount Of work and care put on
the state highways. He considers the
Minnesota system of highway upkeep
much superior to ours. Not all may
live on the main highways, and those
who do not are entitled to more con-
Siderati0n than they receive. Taxes,
he says. are just as high on the by
road farms as they are on the state
road farms. That is something for the
assessors to think about.
Mr.. Chock say he would have no
kick" if he could see that he was get
ting value received for his tax money.

VWAN| TO REPORT
ALLIED SOLIDARITY
Special Envoy Leaves Here
With Hopes of American
Cooperation Abroad.
BY DAVID LAWRENCEs

Rene Viviani leaves America this
week to report to France and Europe
generally that the prospects of Amer
lean cooperation in Europe are not
as dim as the outside world has been
led to believe.
Although he would have been happy
to convey an assurance that the
United States will soon enter the ex-
listing league of nations. the French
statesman is we'll satisfied that the
Harding plan of an international as
sociation can be blended with the
present organization in some prac-
tical way when once the subject is
ready for negotiation.
For the present, the willingness of
President Harding to join the allies in
signing the principal portion of the
Versailles treaty is viewed as a salts
factory start toward an entente be-
tween Europe and America. There is
at any rate to be no peace treaty from
which the Germans can derive encour-
aSement or utilize as an instrument
of discord among the powers aSSo-
ciated against her during the war. AL
lied solidarity will have been pre-
served
Message Gives Hope.
There is every reason to believe that
Premier BRAND is we'll pleased with
=
ami concerning Americas attitude. and
that French policy henceforth will go
along with the American administra-
tion even more tremendously than be-
fore
The French have been fully ad
riSed of the American viewpoint and
are not so inclined to despair of
American cooperation. The Harding
message to Congress gives them
hope.
Another factor of Importance is
the French press. II is being made
Ambassador Jusserand has not kept
the French government closely in
formed. and last week in particular
there was an outburSt of criticism
against Mr.. Jusserand for his alleged
failure to cable the Harding message
which has been carefully cultivated
is that there should be a change in
ambassadors here.
Former Premier Eiviani will tell
the people in France and the govern
ment in particular a different story
He will advise them that Ambassador
Jusserand not only knows America
exceptionally well, but that he has
proceeded properly in not trying to
force the French viewpoint on Amer
lea in the midst of a tense political
situation. wherein international is
sues were subject of partisan dis
pute.
The fact that the French news
papers didn't get copies of the Hard
ing message in time for their editions
is something for which, it is con-
tended. Mr.. Jusserand ought not to be
blamed Indeed delays are due to
congested cables. If the French
people didn't get the Harding mes
sage promptly. the fault is partially
that of the American government.
which heretofore has supplied foreign
governments with such documents by
radio or cable and has made it un-
necessary for diplomats to send the
same communications abroad.
War Methods Recalled.
The incident illustrates the need
of sumo such Policy as was begun
during the war. when the committee
on public information was in exist
ence. and when every American docu-
ment bearing on foreign policy was
sent broadcast by radio and cable
